Chapter 90, Second Save: "I hate you! I despise you!"...
Crane and Kite returned to the day the Rebellion of Drinking Moon occurred.
When he arrived at the studio, he accepted the milk tea offered by Yingxing but did not drink it.
He Yuan looked at the man and said, "Brother Yingxing, you're hiding something from me."
He thought that if Yingxing was willing to be honest, he could help him and become an accomplice.
Ying Xing met his gaze and smiled. "Ah Yuan, are you talking about the time I ate one of your strawberries this morning?"
He Yuan shook her head and placed the milk tea cup on the table. "That's not what I meant."
He touched the inside of the cup where water droplets had formed. "What did you put in the milk tea? Was it some kind of drug that can make me sleepy for a whole afternoon?"
Ying Xing's expression tightened, and she tried to look puzzled. "What is A Yuan saying? I don't quite understand."
He Yuan didn't answer, but instead continued, "That's not right either. The people of the Immortal Boat have high drug resistance. You used more than that amount, so how did you cover up the taste?"
He opened the lid, smelled it, and suddenly realized: "You asked Danfeng for the odorless medicine, and then you took the ice."
Yes, He Yuan almost forgot, Dan Feng's medical skills are also quite impressive.
The young man looked straight at him and asked, "Brother Yingxing, what exactly are you trying to hide from me?"
Ying Xing met his gaze, "A Yuan, I want to give you a surprise..."
"Surprise—?" He Yuan laughed. "I think it's more like a shock."
His tone hardened slightly, "Brother Yingxing, are you really not going to tell me?"
Can we really bear the consequences of not telling anyone?
He Yuan crushed the milk tea cup with a blank expression, the clear tea and milk foam mixing together, enveloping her palm in sweetness.
Fortunately, the tears he shed in the player space wouldn't be seen, and he had adjusted his mood before reloading the save.
He Yuan firmly believes that there are always more solutions than problems.
As Ying Xingge's partner and lover, it's better to start with a slightly gentler approach.
We'll talk about that later.
Faced with He Yuan's gaze, Ying Xing chose to find a towel, dry the young man's hands, and tidy up the workbench.
He insisted on his excuse of giving He Yuan a surprise, and without mentioning anything else, he began to work.
He Yuan let out a sigh. "You're not going to talk, are you?"
Ying Xing turned to him and whispered, "A Yuan, I... I'm preparing a surprise for you. If you know beforehand, it won't be as surprising."
Things shouldn't happen more than three times.
He Yuan spent her morning as usual, and during lunch, without warning, she fell asleep without even realizing it.
Yingxing took one last look at his sleeping face and gently kissed the young man's forehead.
"I'm sorry, but I can't drag you into this."
When he left, the man's eyes were much more resolute.
He Yuan opened her eyes and followed Ying Xing's footsteps.
He drank an invisibility potion beforehand.
Throughout the journey, the distance between him and Yingxing never exceeded two meters, and they even shared the same starship.
After arriving in Lin Yuan Realm through the Dan Ding Division, Dan Feng waited for him on the shore.
Why are you so late?
Ying Xing said with a sigh, "A Yuan just sensed something was wrong. Luckily, I had a backup plan, and he didn't follow."
Danfeng nodded, "That's good. For such high-risk things... the two of us are enough."
One is the Vidyadhara Dragon Lord, and the other is the Immortal Boat Short-Lived Seed of a Hundred Metals.
The former also has to consider the face of the Vidyadhara clan, while the latter has to think long and hard just about the contribution.
Moreover, both of them had reached the pinnacle of this path and had no intention of moving forward.
Crane Kite, standing to the side, gave a silent, cold laugh.
hehe.
He is no longer the innocent He Yuan he once was!
Now, he is Niohuru Heyuan!
Crane Kite followed the two all the way to the experimental site.
The Lin Yuan Realm is heavily guarded, and Dan Feng can only get four hours.
Yingxing came prepared, and the two worked together in perfect harmony to create a monstrous dragon that Heyuan had never seen before.
Upon seeing the product, Danfeng's expression changed, and he immediately rushed forward to fight it.
Yingxing was lightly armed today, without the Golden Man, and could only use some small weapons to harass them, failing to notice the moving mass of flesh and blood on the ground.
Crane Kite noticed.
Knowing that Yingxing Ge was unwilling to live forever, he revealed his true form, shattered his flesh and blood, and came to the evil dragon's side.
Upon seeing him, both of them simultaneously showed expressions of panic.
"Ah Yuan! How could you—" Ying Xing was the one who couldn't believe it the most. He had clearly seen He Yuan eat the food and then watched him fall asleep. He only left after confirming it for a while.
Danfeng closed his eyes briefly. "When did you arrive?"
The most urgent task is to get the person out of there.
As long as He Yuan had only been there a short time, he and Ying Xing could produce evidence to make it seem as if He Yuan hadn't been involved.
At most, I'll only be locked up for a few days, it's okay. Danfeng tried to calm herself down.
While fighting the evil dragon, He Yuan said, "I watched the whole thing."
“I know every step you take, every word you say, and the ingredients you use.”
Danfeng's complexion grew increasingly worse.
With these abilities, He Yuan could easily get himself in!
Don't let his recent quiet life fool you into forgetting the outrageous things he did in his youth!
He wanted to talk to He Yuan, but the evil dragon in front of him became increasingly troublesome after it began to devour the remaining flesh and blood on the ground.
It can attack everyone indiscriminately in the Scale Abyss Realm, but Danfeng and his two companions cannot.
These are all buildings belonging to the Vidyadhara clan, and the Vidyadhara egg is in the distance. If they go too far, the Vidyadhara population...
"Danfeng! What are you doing!"
And then, of all times, someone comes to cause trouble.
Long Shitao stepped forward, interrupting them: "Danfeng, what have you created? What did you do with the Dragon Transformation Technique!"
Timely questioning can absolve him of responsibility and give him a legitimate reason to launch an attack.
Tao Ran was already thinking about how to seize power from the Chiming Clan before Danfeng underwent her metamorphosis and the next Dragon Lord was born.
He Yuan ignored him and slashed at him with a sword aura.
If Su Tuan hadn't been pulled back by someone, he would have been split in two by now.
The evil dragon is very difficult to deal with.
Its body was made from the flesh and blood of an unknown person, and its regenerative ability was extraordinary. Crane and Kite fought it very hard.
He estimated the time and figured it would take him at least a few hours.
A few hours.
The daylily buds are all cold!
He Yuan felt the urge to read the save file.
He glanced at Ying Xing, who was working diligently in the corner, and noticed that the other party had not yet been transformed into an immortal being, which gave him a bit more motivation.
fine!
Danfeng is still alive in this game, and Yingxing hasn't achieved immortality either, so there's still hope!
As for the Dragon Master?
If we kill them, no one will know what happened today.
He Yuan had been annoyed with them for a long time, and finally had a reason to deal with them.
He shouted to Danfeng, "Danfeng, you hold them off for now, I'll take care of this side!"
Before Danfeng could react, Heyuan had already arrived in front of Longshi and was slashing them one by one.
The dragon master screamed in agony as he hacked at him.
Apart from a few who explicitly objected, the remaining Dragon Masters, upon witnessing this scene, directly stated that they had never been to Lin Yuan Realm before and knew nothing about it.
They also try to appease the people who protect the beads.
He Yuan nodded in satisfaction and turned back to help Dan Feng.
"Lord Dragon Ancestor...please heal Danfeng quickly..." the hidden Dragon Master prayed softly, then turned to cursing, "The demoness is bringing ruin to the country, the demoness is bringing ruin to the country!"
“He went on a killing spree today, and there will probably be a next time!” Master Long whispered to the fence-sitters, “Think about it, now that we know this incriminating evidence, there’s a risk that it will be exposed in the future.”
"If he wants to get rid of us once and for all, he'll probably deal with us immediately once he's gathered enough evidence!"
"...Then...then what should we do?" The younger dragon master panicked.
The way He Yuan had just swiftly and cleanly beheaded people... truly gave them quite a nightmare.
The Dragon Master, who had just stirred up panic, pointed at Yingxing, "Xianzhou Baiye Yingxing is a short-lived species, and also the easiest of the three to deal with."
"The friendship among the Five Heroes of the Clouds is extraordinary. Yingxing is also the husband of that vixen. If we can bind him, we will definitely be able to threaten those two."
"That makes sense..."
"...That's true."
"I agree!"
Therefore, the dragon master, who was supposed to guard the egg of the Vidyadhara, returned instead.
When He Yuan saw the red dot on the map, the Dragon Masters had already taken Ying Xing hostage.
"Danfeng, Heyuan, stop right now!"
He Yuan turned her head, distracted, and saw that Ying Xing was being tightly surrounded by them and being tied up with ropes.
The evil dragon's claws struck directly at the storefront.
Unable to defend himself, he could only take the blow head-on and rush to Yingxing's side.
"Brother Danfeng! Hang in there, I'll be right back!"
Danfeng nodded to indicate that he understood and tried his best to restrain the evil dragon.
But the evil dragon seemed to have sensed something and started moving along with He Yuan, as if it wanted to drag him back.
"What are you standing there for! Move!" one of the Dragon Masters shouted. "We have nowhere to retreat!"
The Dragon Masters also possessed considerable martial prowess and launched attacks against Crane and Kite.
This created a situation where they were attacked from both sides.
Crane Kite struggled to deal with both sides.
His current attributes are not good enough; he's not at the point where he can take down a messenger with a single arrow. He can only desperately try to deal damage.
But his own health bar dropped even faster than the opponent's.
Ying Xing watched as more and more blood flowed from He Yuan's body, her clothes became tattered, and she was covered in wounds.
Without much thought, he crashed straight into a weapon held by a dragon master, killing himself cleanly and efficiently.
They didn't give them any chance to be saved.
He Yuan's hand trembled, and the sword she was holding suddenly felt heavy.
He watched the man slowly fall, his mind going completely blank.
The first physiological reaction is tears.
The blood dripped silently, mingling with the bloodstains spreading on the ground, resembling red spider lilies of varying shades.
Then came the numbness in the limbs and torso.
Crane Kite went berserk, just like the evil dragon, disregarding her own injuries and indiscriminately attacking everyone except Danfeng.
What is his relationship with the Vidyadhara clan?
What is his relationship with the Dragon Master?
...
It's not important, not important at all.
The only important people are Yingxing and Danfeng; the others are just people I like because of their connection to Yingxing.
He came back time and time again, all for them.
But Yingxing died.
Unlike before, he did not die of old age, but instead died by the sword of another, and also by his own negligence.
He Yuan thought that he should have sent Ying Xing to a safe place earlier.
No, he shouldn't have let Yingxing come, nor should he have let Yingxing have such thoughts.
Without ideas, none of this would have happened.
He Yuan lay dazed and confused in the pool of blood, crawling a few steps toward Ying Xing.
The evil dragon is about to die.
Danfeng was in a hurry to finish up. Before confirming the death, he flew to Heyuan's side to use the Cloud Chant spell to heal her.
He Yuan pressed down on his hand.
“Look at Yingxing… look at him…” He Yuan opened her mouth and spat out several mouthfuls of bloody foam, with bloody tears dripping from the corners of her eyes, a sight that was shocking to behold.
Danfeng couldn't bear it and said, "Yingxing is already..."
He didn't know how to comfort He Yuan.
This experiment was his suggestion, so he was indirectly an accomplice in Yingxing's death.
How should he comfort her? And what right does he have to offer comfort?
He Yuan shook her head desperately, "He's not dead...he's not dead! You can revive him like you just did, right!"
The young man gripped the Dragon Lord's hand tightly, his beautiful eyes gradually losing focus. "It's possible...it definitely is..."
He suddenly lowered his head, seemingly rummaging through the package for something.
Danfeng wanted to heal Heyuan's injuries, but the young man forcefully pushed her away.
“I don’t need it,” He Yuan paused, softening her tone slightly, “I…I’m sorry…I—”
Ignoring the bloodstains on his body, Danfeng hugged him tightly, "It's alright, it's alright..."
Unable to offer words of comfort, Danfeng could only say, "I'll heal your wounds, and we'll figure something out together, okay?"
He Yuan didn't answer, staring blankly at Ying Xing.
Why—why can't the props be used?
The five-star items given by the pharmacist all failed to respond or could not be used when Yingxing tried to use them.
He broke free from Danfeng's embrace and pulled Yingxing out of the blood.
A bluish tinge began to appear on the man's face, a color only found on corpses...
Crane Kite closed her eyes in pain.
He clearly wanted to make a change, so why did things get worse instead?
Danfeng, supporting himself, tidied up the scene and pondered how to handle the aftermath for the Dragon Master.
At that time, He Yuan was blinded by rage and completely disregarded the consequences.
He can't care about that now.
His entire being was consumed by Yingxing's death, leaving no room for anything else.
Just as He Yuan was about to call out the pharmacist's name, the corpse she was holding stirred.
He looked down and saw that the blood-stained white hair had turned black from the roots, and the original red color could no longer be seen, only the black color had deepened.
The "Yingxing" in his arms opened its eyes, revealing a pair of eyes that He Yuan was familiar with.
His eyes, like Ren's, were red with a golden glow.
And the body... has changed a lot too.
He Yuan saw the bloodstains on the ground bubbling up and surging towards Ying Xing.
"This is……"
Danfeng noticed the abnormality and rushed over, "This is fleeting flesh and blood."
He Yuan suddenly looked up, "Isn't Shu Hu already dead?!"
Why does his flesh and blood have such effects?
Danfeng lowered his eyes: "This is the purpose of our experiment."
The fleeting flesh and blood, along with a few strands of Bai Heng's hair, attempted to summon back the souls heading towards the River of Oblivion, and reverse the course of life and death.
Unfortunately, they failed.
"But Brother Yingxing..."
What's going on with Ying Xing Ge?
Crane Kite thought blankly.
Previously, his focus was on why Yingxing did this and what the consequences would be.
I never thought about why Yingxing was able to come back to life.
Now, the stark reality is before us.
After being resurrected, Yingxing merged with Shuhu's flesh and blood, but Shuhu's soul was taken away by the pharmacist. Therefore, Yingxing only had half of his own mind left. He often had confused memories and fell into the demonic body due to his lack of rationality.
The Cloud Cavalry, who had been informed by the Dragon Master, arrived one after another. When they saw the corpses and pools of blood on the ground, as well as the three people covered in blood, their faces turned grim.
After the report was submitted to the Ten Kings Division and the Shence Palace, they looked at He Yuan, who was clinging tightly to Ying Xing, with tense expressions.
They were simply no match for him, nor could they be dragged away. Even when the Dragon Lord tried to persuade them, they wouldn't listen to a word he said.
He Yuan stared blankly at Ying Xing.
He was thinking that the outcome of this return... seemed to be unchanged.
Was all of this really inevitable?
No, that shouldn't be the case.
There is a chance, and it can be resolved.
He Yuan ignored what happened next and immediately reloaded her save to return to that morning.
Just like last time, he asked Yingxing three times.
Yingxing remained silent.
He Yuan smiled and knocked Ying Xing unconscious.
He imprisoned Yingxing, preventing the man from leaving his side even for a moment, and from going anywhere alone.
As long as Yingxing doesn't leave his home or go to Lin Yuan Realm, he can't conduct experiments, and the Yin Yue Rebellion won't happen.
This is the most brutal method, which He Yuan doesn't want to use.
But he wanted to be sure about one thing.
He Yuan and Ying Xing still had a lot of annual leave left, so they applied for an extra month and have been staying at home ever since.
No matter what Yingxing said to him, Heyuan did not loosen the chains.
He began to learn what Yingxing used to do: take care of all three meals a day, leave the cleaning to the robot, but he would tie himself to Yingxing and wash himself off together.
After Yingxing raised another question, Heyuan sat down beside him and stroked his cheek.
"If I answer Yingxing's question, will Yingxing tell me the truth?"
The young man's face was tinged with a morbid madness. His fingers pointed downwards, gripping Ying Xing's arm tightly, as if afraid of losing him.
Ke Yingxing's hands were tightly bound with chains. Without a key or He Yuan to help him unlock them, he couldn't leave the room even for a moment.
Yingxing didn't know how Heyuan had become like this.
He had only gone out to buy a milk tea when He Yuan tied his hands and feet and took him away from the Bureau of Works and back home.
Ying Xing ate the entire cup of milk tea, which is why he didn't wake up until the next day.
At this point, taking leave became a certainty, as did the constraints he faced.
Yingxing initially thought that Heyuan was trying to pull some trick, and planned to apologize to Danfeng with the jade tablet, or ask Heyuan if it could be postponed.
But no, the scenario he expected did not unfold.
At home, He Yuan did nothing but cook and bathe. She would just stare at Ying Xing, occasionally touching his face and neck, then slowly letting go to check his breath.
Yingxing had a misconception.
He felt that He Yuan's actions... were as if she was confirming his survival?
It was an absurd illusion; he didn't even know how he came up with it.
But he still asked.
"Ah Yuan, I'm still alive. What did you see?"
Yingxing thought Heyuan was having a nightmare.
But the young man he knew wasn't someone who would be defeated by nightmares.
The fact that Crane and Iris are extremely attractive to the Star Gods reminded Yingxing of the End Star God known as the "Last King".
Could it be that A-Yuan foresaw the ending given by the Last King?
Yingxing dies in the end.
When did that happen? Did he die a natural death, or was it because of... Danfeng's experiment?
So Yingxing asked.
He Yuan asked him if he could tell the truth, and Ying Xing replied, "I will."
"Okay, then answer me first—"
What exactly is your reason for wanting a divorce?
He Yuan didn't say it explicitly, but Ying Xing already understood; A Yuan must know something.
This time he was quite straightforward: "Because I don't want to drag you down with me."
He Yuan sneered, "Ying Xing, do you think you're particularly affectionate, particularly devoted, and particularly considerate of me?"
Is it fun to keep it from me?
No, that's not how it should be, that's not what it means.
He Yuan knew he shouldn't think this way, but the anger in his heart had nowhere to go, and the suppressed emotions could no longer be contained and poured out.
He really wanted to question Yingxing about why she had the idea of hiding it.
Ying Xing repeatedly replied, "I didn't think that, I—I—"
He suddenly stopped, because he realized that all the reasons he was about to give were based on the three words "for your own good," which perfectly matched what He Yuan had said about "deep affection" and "good intentions."
He said he didn't want He Yuan to be affected by him and have a bad future.
He Yuan asked him if he felt he had put in a lot of effort and if he should be grateful to him.
He said he didn't want He Yuan to have a stain on her record or suffer imprisonment.
He Yuan asked him if he thought he was particularly great and particularly affectionate.
He said...
Crane Kite asked...
Everything was countered, and Ying Xing's reasons all became lame excuses in the face of these countermeasures.
"Yingxing, put away your self-righteous affection, I don't need it."
He Yuan stared at him, her icy tone masking an unfathomable volcano, "Didn't you ask me why I did this?"
"Okay, I'll tell you."
“Yingxing, let me tell you, I saw you die right in front of me. Not from old age, but by suicide.”
At this point, tears welled up in He Yuan's eyes, and her voice trembled with sobs.
"You were being held hostage and didn't want to implicate me, so you ran straight into a sword and ended your own life."
"You did everything without asking for my opinion!"
"I hate you! I despise you!"
He became more and more agitated as he spoke, and tears welled up in his eyes, dripping from his chin and landing one by one on Yingxing's palm.
The man had no time to notice the change in how He Yuan addressed him; he was only focused on comforting her.
However, after going back and forth, Yingxing's apology was only a few sentences long, which sounded dry and insincere under Heyuan's fierce words.
Fortunately, He Yuan still had some feelings for him, and she asked him questions one by one, giving him a chance.
"Do you think I'm easy to fool?" He Yuan asked.
Ying Xing shook his head vigorously in denial, "No, I didn't think that!"
He Yuan asked again, "Do you think I'm weak?"
Ying Xing immediately retorted, "Who else can beat you?"
He Yuan lowered her eyes: "But I couldn't protect you."
He shouldn't be thinking about how to maximize his health bar; he should be saving people first.
At most, it's just a matter of taking more red medicine.
But Yingxing--
He Yuan recalled the scene of Ying Xing falling down and began to repeat the actions she had taken to confirm that Ying Xing was alive.
Yingxing tried her best to stay close to him, making the young man feel her presence.
The skin on my hands was warm and pulsating, a testament to my survival.
He Yuan glanced at Ying Xing, then withdrew her hand with trembling hands. After a while, she finally spoke: "I am indeed very weak. You really shouldn't have come looking for me."
He unlocked Ying Xing's chains and said calmly, "Go, I won't stop you. Do whatever you want."
Yingxing was momentarily at a loss.
He stretched his limbs, sat on the bed without leaving, and instead reached out to touch He Yuan.
"I won't hide it from you anymore."
This was his promise.
He Yuan dodged his hand and took a few steps back. "There won't be a next time."
Yingxing was puzzled.
He Yuan said slowly, "Didn't you want a divorce? I agree."
"I don't like your behavior, I don't want to be with you, I want to find someone who suits me and will never lie to me."
"Yingxing, don't worry, I will date many, many lovers and forget you forever."
