"He, he is... Cang Ye!"
Lei Li stared at Gu Changge in astonishment. "This, how is this possible? Wasn't Cang Ye inside that woman's body? How could he be inside this man's body?!"
"Heh, how foolish! That woman's body is just my possessed soul!" Gu Changge chuckled and glanced at the two of them. "If I hadn't been chasing after that brat Gu Linlin, I wouldn't have met you two! I didn't know you two harbored such a deep grudge against me! Ah, what a coincidence!"
Gu Changge gritted her teeth and spoke slowly, word by word.
Lei Dong, looking wary, quickly stepped in front of Lei Li and shielded him behind him. "Lei Li, go back and inform Gu Liyan and the others!"
"What? Then you..."
"I'll be alright, you hurry... uh—" Lei Dong's words were cut short as he gasped for breath, looking down in shock to see Gu Changge's arm piercing straight through his chest—
Gu Changge, however, pressed his face against his own, grinning menacingly, "Heh heh heh—none of you can escape!"
Lei Dong's pupils contracted. Gu Changge forcefully pulled out his arm, shook off the blood, laughed loudly, and walked directly towards Lei Li behind him without even glancing at Lei Dong.
Lei Li turned pale with fright, his lower body trembled uncontrollably, and with a slight movement of his feet, he collapsed to his knees.
Seeing this, Gu Changge couldn't help but sneer, "Lei Li, you really are a coward! Lei Dong may not be as strong as you, but he is brave and resourceful, while you are useless in the face of absolute power and can only bow your head and accept your fate! Heh, you are the most pathetic one!"
Lei Li was terrified as he watched Gu Changge approach, breaking out in a cold sweat and forgetting to beg for mercy or resist.
Gu Changge chuckled as his blood-stained arm slowly reached towards Lei Li's head.
"stop--"
Just then, a familiar voice reached his ears. Gu Changge lowered his head with a cold face and saw Lei Dong holding Gu Changge's waist, preventing him from moving.
Lei Li stared blankly at Lei Dong, who was covered in blood, and forgot to speak.
"You piece of trash, let me go!" Gu Changge shouted angrily, struggling a few times but unable to break free from Lei Dong. He raised his elbow and struck Lei Dong's wound on the back—
"Pfft—" Lei Dong coughed up blood again in pain, his whole body limp and listless. But even so, he struggled to turn his head, looked at the dazed Lei Li, and shouted at Lei Li with all his might, "Run—run fast—"
Lei Li swallowed hard, clenched his fists, hurriedly got up, and turned around to run wildly without hesitation.
Seeing Lei Li's figure getting further and further away, Lei Dong chuckled, "That's it... Escape, escape as far as possible..."
Seeing Lei Li escape from his grasp, Gu Changge's face immediately turned cold, and he began to curse with a gloomy expression:
"Damn it! Lei Dong! You bastard, die!"
Gu Changge kicked the already barely breathing Lei Dong to the ground, then raised her hand and stabbed him viciously in the chest—
Upon seeing this, Lei Dong slowly closed his eyes.
However, at that moment, a gentle breeze suddenly arose, lifting Lei Dong's body and sending him flying backward...
Gu Changge thrust his sword down, only to miss completely. He immediately looked up at the disappearing figure in the distance and angrily cursed, "Mo Chen! It's you again, you bastard!"
——
Lei Dong gradually regained consciousness, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the scenery rushing past him with a puzzled expression. He couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Wh-what happened..."
"Oh, you're awake? You're not dead yet! Hang in there a little longer!" Mo Chen turned his head and looked at Lei Dong with a smile.
"Mo Chen?!" Lei Dong looked at Mo Chen, who was carrying him, with a surprised expression. "You, how did you get here? Where is Cang Ye?"
"Cang Ye has been left behind! No matter how fast he goes, he can't outrun a whirlwind!" Mo Chen squinted and looked back, raising the corners of his mouth confidently as he spoke.
Sure enough, Gu Changge was nowhere to be seen behind them; he had long since disappeared somewhere!
"As for why I came to save you, it's because Gu Liyan saw that you were facing a life-or-death crisis and said he was worried about you, so he asked me to see you off. Who knew that you would actually get into trouble!"
“I never expected that he would save my life again… cough cough…” Lei Dong said, his face pale.
"Hey, are you alright?" Mo Chen asked, frowning. "Don't talk. I'll take you back to heal your wounds."
Lei Dong touched his chest; he wondered how Mo Chen had managed to stop the bleeding from the wound there.
"Thank you..." Lei Dong said with a smile, but then he suddenly remembered Lei Li and hurriedly added, "By the way, Lei Li's fate is unknown. What if Cang Ye attacks him..."
Upon hearing Lei Dong's words, Mo Chen's expression changed drastically, growing increasingly furious. "Don't mention that guy! That guy actually abandoned you and ran off on his own! He doesn't deserve to be called human! And you were willing to sacrifice yourself to save him..."
Lei Dong smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "Don't blame him. He just wanted to live... Besides, everyone has a reason to live... doesn't he?"
Lei Dong looked up at the gray sky, a question that had always lingered in his mind: Was what I did the right thing? Was it really worth it...?
He dared not let the question have an answer; once he did, he feared he would lose his reason for living.
"Xiao Dong, please take care of your younger brother, I beg you—"
...
Lei Dong suddenly remembered his father's dying words: wasn't this the meaning of his life?
