Chapter 2126 So what if he spits out some blood? What's the big deal?
His lover remembers him, but will never love him again.
From then on, they became indifferent and estranged, like strangers.
This was the "gift" that Gui Chen was willing to risk his life to leave him.
Not bad, very lethal, a rare and clever scheme.
Whether she was mocking others or mocking herself, Si Jin smiled but didn't linger.
She simply looked up, politely stood up, tidied her stray hairs, and blurted out, "You're injured, and the doctor can't treat you, so I'm here to help purify the wound. I just happened to fall asleep."
As soon as he finished speaking, he lowered his head and gave a polite bow: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
The other priests slept in his own bed, so Lin Yuan should have been very angry.
But now, looking into Si Jin's eyes, he felt not angry at all, but rather a stifling feeling of resentment.
It's like suddenly losing something very important; there's an emptiness that nothing can fill.
He felt that Si Jin's back was somewhat thin, perhaps because he was too tall. He always felt that his once aloof master was now full of loneliness.
I really want to... reach out and hug you.
Just hold him like this, even if it makes him feel a little bit better.
However, to deceive one's teacher is truly outrageous.
Lin Yuan finally managed to suppress his emotions, said "Thank you, Master," and then politely saw the person off.
She sat alone on the silk bed, slowly raising her hand to cover her troubled heart.
… …
Si Jin left the Heavenly Monarch Palace, and he didn't know how to describe his feelings at that moment.
It's a bit absurd, even a bit... laughable.
For some reason, he always felt that all of this was unreal, and that A Yuan would never forget him.
He will not forget, nor dare he forget.
Si Jin remembered that she had read about similar curses in ancient books before. The person who broke such a curse the fastest since the birth of heaven and earth took fifteen years.
Then he... will give Xiao Ayuan fifteen days.
But I have to say, that's a bit too much.
He wanted Lin Yuan to remember him within the seven days of purifying his soul, or perhaps, he should never have forgotten him.
Forgetting for one day will result in an extra year of punishment.
He believed that gods could attain immortality, and that Lin Yuan had enough time to punish him.
Without someone to "recharge" with, Si Jin's world seemed to suddenly quiet down, leaving her with a lot of time to deal with trivial matters.
He quickly went to the Heavenly Prison to complete his release assessment, registered to have his divine status restored, had a meal with Yu Yan, and then visited various military camps, where he met many of his former subordinates and friends.
Finally, he even took the time to turn Xiao Yao into a spirit pet. While the little tiger was excited, he grabbed its tail, turned around, and threw it under the Rakshasa cat's claws.
Si Jin's life was fulfilling, but after just seven days of purification, his mental state deteriorated further.
Each purification array he cast for Lin Yuan consumed more than half of his divine power.
Logically speaking, being able to last three days is already the limit.
Ke Sijin insisted on going to the Heavenly Lord's Palace on time every day for seven days straight, refusing to ask for help or reveal the secret to anyone.
At first, he could drive his own cloud chariot between the Si family villa and the Heavenly Lord Palace, but later, his attention became easily distracted.
Fearing they might run into other deities, for the last three days, they simply asked Yan Yuping to be their driver.
After the final purification was completed, Si Jin emerged from the Heavenly Lord's Palace, his steps noticeably unsteady and faltering.
In order to ensure that Lin Yuan was completely unharmed, the seven days of purification almost exhausted all of his divine power, which his natural spiritual power could not compensate for.
A persistent pain surged in his chest, forcing him to stop and cough while leaning against the wall.
His cough a few days ago was nothing, but this time it was extremely severe, choking him until his eyes turned red, and a metallic taste kept rising from his throat.
As if realizing something, Si Jin gritted her teeth and swallowed hard, as if swallowing shards of glass, trying to lower her blood pressure.
No way! Yan Yuping is still here. He just returned to his divine position and he's already vomiting blood. What kind of state is that?
But... perhaps due to excessive consumption of divine power, the blood today just doesn't seem to be working against him.
He had barely swallowed it when it surged back up with even greater force, forcing him to cough violently three times, splattering blood all over his hand.
Bright red liquid trickled down her slender, white knuckles, splashing onto the white stone floor engraved with auspicious cloud patterns.
One drop, two drops, three drops...
Not far away, Yan Yuping noticed the anomaly and quickly ran over.
Si Jin immediately used her divine power to cover it up.
But at this moment... the excessive consumption of divine power was like a faulty power source, only concealing the blood on his hands for three seconds before it reappeared.
It disappeared for three seconds, then reappeared.
Just as Yan Yuping was about to reach her, Si Jin, overcome with anxiety, coughed violently twice more.
At this moment, the divine power completely dissipated, and both hands were stained with blood.
It was filthy, and there was no room for maneuver.
"Ha." How pathetic.
Fortunately, A Yuan's soul has been completely restored just now; if it had lasted another day, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on.
Si Jin leaned against the wall, ignoring the blood on her hands, and let Yan Yuping approach.
Just as the bearded man's eyes turned bloodshot and he was about to shout, the bearded man frowned sternly and said, "Quiet down! It's just a couple of mouthfuls of blood. What's the big deal? Anyone who didn't know better would think I'm dead!"
