Lu Jingzhi's face was filled with pain, his lips trembling. After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a few words with difficulty: "She...she burned her own blood and essence, even her soul. If she can't be resurrected, her soul may dissipate."
Hearing these words, Jin Fengxi was struck by lightning. His body trembled violently and he froze in place in an instant.
"What!" Her face turned pale and bloodless, and her beautiful eyes were wide open.
In an instant, my nose felt sore and tears burst out like a flood, sliding down my cheeks.
She sobbed and murmured to herself, "How could this be possible... How could this happen..."
At this time, Mu Yun quickly stepped forward, hugged Jin Fengxi tightly in his arms, and comforted her softly, "Fengxi, don't get excited first, you must calm down."
"It has happened, and now we need to find a way to deal with it."
However, Jin Fengxi was no longer able to listen to these words at this moment.
She struggled to break free from Mu Yun's embrace and shouted, "Calm down? How can you ask me to calm down?!"
"She's my good friend who I grew up with!"
"Over the years, we have been through so many ups and downs together, and the bond between us is even deeper than that between sisters."
"Now that she has encountered such an unexpected event, how can I expect her to remain calm?"
After saying that, she raised her hand and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but the tears kept rolling down like beads with broken strings.
Lu Jingzhi silently buried his face deep in the quilt, not wanting anyone to see his sad look at the moment.
His right hand was clutching the quilt so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the force.
And that heartbreaking scene kept replaying in his mind over and over again. Every time he recalled it, it felt like a sharp knife was cutting into his heart, causing unbearable pain.
With Mu Yun's gentle comfort, Jin Fengxi's emotions gradually stabilized and she felt a little better.
She slowly stood up, walked to the bed with slightly unsteady steps and sat down.
"Jingzhi, what exactly happened?"
"Tell me now!"
Then she asked again: "Who is so cruel as to kill Yan An?"
"I will make the murderer pay!"
When Lu Jingzhi heard Jin Fengxi's question, his body trembled slightly.
He stood up from the bed, raised his right hand, and wiped away the tears that remained from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.
After taking a deep breath, Lu Jingzhi slowly spoke, recounting to them the thrilling and despairing scenes he had experienced that day...
Time passed minute by minute, and about half an incense stick of time had passed...
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang"!
Jin Fengxi could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. She stood up suddenly, stretched out a jade hand and slammed it hard on the table beside her.
Because of the excessive force, the tea set on the table was shaken and jumped up, making a tinkling sound.
Jin Fengxi was so angry that her face flushed red. She gritted her teeth and said, "These damned evil souls and black dragons, I will tear them into pieces with my own hands to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
Seeing Jin Fengxi so furious, Mu Yun couldn't help but turn his head and look at Lu Jingzhi, who was standing aside with his head hung and a sad face.
Lu Jingzhi seemed to have lost his soul, sitting there blankly, unaware of everything around him.
After a moment of silence...
"Brother Lu, as far as I know, on the night of the Ghost Festival two months from now, the Evil Soul Clan will forcibly break the barrier of the ancestral worship world."
"By then, if we can't stop them in time, I'm afraid Yan An will really have no hope of survival."
After saying that, Mu Yun sighed deeply, his face full of worry.
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi stared at Mu Yun in a daze, his voice unconsciously rising an octave: "What? They're going to break the barrier of the ancestral worship world in two months?"
Mu Yun nodded solemnly, "Yes, time is running out. We must stop them before the deadline and bring Yan An in safely."
Jin Fengxi, standing by, tried to calm her anger and said slowly, "Indeed, before that, you must do everything you can to improve your strength as quickly as possible. We will all do our utmost to assist you."
Immediately afterwards, Jin Fengxi introduced to Lu Jingzhi in detail the specific location of the demon domain and the manpower situation on their side.
Lu Jingzhi slowly broke free from the huge sadness.
Because he knew very well that rescuing Yan An was the top priority at the moment and he absolutely could not afford to be negligent or careless.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but the invisible heavy pressure on his shoulders was like a mountain, pressing him so hard that he could hardly breathe.
After a moment's silence, Lu Jingzhi raised his head and looked at the two of them with a firm gaze.
"I will definitely do my best to quickly increase my strength!"
"But we all come from different factions. If we don't integrate and train together, we'll end up being nothing more than a mob with no organization or discipline."
