Chapter 373 Does Not Exist
Xiao Yuehan: "Actually, when I was by your side all those years, I really wanted to kill you all the time, but when I really had to do it, I was actually reluctant. Since the misunderstanding was resolved, Duanmu Xueying is also dead, and we have long been even. It's just that we can never go back to the kind of friendship we had before. In the past, my master, the high priest, was in the way, which made me do such a terrible thing, but now he is no longer a threat to me. The life I live now is the life I have always wanted to live. You don't have to worry about me. Instead, you should be more careful for yourself and the people around you. After all, your father is really not a vegetarian."
Nangong Yu: "The fact that you came to see me proves that you still have some feelings for me. This shows that you are a person with feelings, righteousness, and a conscience. Are you really willing to be that person's pawn and help him do all the bad things?"
Xiao Yuehan pushed Nangong Yu down under the bed.
"Do you think I have a choice? When Duanmu Xueying framed me and put me in jail, where were all those so-called saints? I have already made a life-long pact with him. If he dies, I cannot live. I beg you to spare my life and let me fend for myself!"
Nangong Yu: "I'm sorry."
Xiao Yuehan: "Don't say sorry to me, you have never done anything to let me down. Seriously speaking, it is actually me who has failed you. I brought this upon myself. You don't have to feel guilty."
Situ: "Are you really not going to come back? Although I often competed with you in the past, I was afraid that you would do something wrong and want to hurt Nangong Yu. I didn't mean to target this person. As long as you really want to come back, I will do everything I can to help you resolve the crisis."
Xiao Yuehan: "Come on! With my master's experience as a warning, aren't you afraid? Even if you're not afraid, I don't want to become your enemy and become another real-life Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang. By the way, I haven't asked you seriously yet, do you have any way to lift the curse of the Heart of Heaven? How confident are you?"
Situ: "Actually, I have no idea how much success I have. I can only ask Xin Yu for advice. Whether I can succeed in the end depends on fate."
Xiao Yuehan: "You are really bold. For such an uncertain matter, not only did you gamble with Nangong Yu's life, you even dared to risk your own life?"
Situ: "I have no other choice. I can only try my best to save the situation."
Xiao Yuehan: "I really have nothing to say. I can't help you in any way. If you have any questions, you can call me. But whether I can answer your call depends entirely on fate."
After saying that, he sighed and walked away.
Nangong Yu: "Situ, don't worry about me, why don't you think of a way to help Xiao Yuehan!"
Situ: "It's not that I don't want to help him, it's just that he has always been resistant to us. He doesn't even offer a hand, and I don't know how to help him."
Nangong Yu: "When you go to see Xin Yu, remember to tell him about Xu Tuohai's situation and see if he has any other solutions."
Situ: "I understand, but I can only promise you now that I will do my best, but I can't give you any substantial promises."
Nangong Yu: "I understand, just do your best." After saying that, he began to spit out blood again.
Situ quickly helped him onto the bed, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Situ looked at the shocking bloodstains on the handkerchief and couldn't help but start to worry about Nangong Yu.
"You're vomiting more and more blood, and the frequency is increasing. I have to hurry up. I'm going to find Xin Yu now. Nangong, you should have a good rest!"
Nangong Yu took his hand and said, "Remember what I said."
Situ nodded, then walked to the bedside table and turned off the light.
He decided to go find the high priest Xin Yu alone again.
Situ's late-night visit really surprised Xin Yu.
Without a word, Situ took out the Heart of Heaven and placed it on the table. He said directly, "I have retrieved the Heart of Heaven. Can you find a way to remove the curse inside?"
Xin Yu carefully examined Tian Zhixin and took the opportunity to play with it for a while.
After playing with it, he put the Heart of Heaven back on the stage.
"Ah, I never thought you could actually retrieve the Heart of Heaven in such a short time. It's not that I didn't want to help you, but I probably didn't explain it clearly to you back then. To lift the curse on the Heart of Heaven, you must expend your own lifespan and true energy to draw out the cursed evil spirit within and fulfill her wish. And I really don't want to make such a huge sacrifice for a foreigner who has nothing to do with me, so I'm sorry I can't help you."
"High Priest, this isn't just about Duanmu Qing or Jiao Niang. It's about Nangong Lan trying to kill Nangong Yu. To resolve this murderous intent, I promised to help Nangong Lan lift the curse of the Heart of Heaven. If you refuse to help me, then Nangong Yu is doomed."
The high priest was still in doubt when he suddenly saw Situ kneeling before him and pleading sincerely, "High priest, I beg you."
Xin Yu was moved by his loyalty and courage, and his heart couldn't help but tremble when he thought of Duanmu Xueying's last words before she left.
"You better get up first!"
"Does this mean you agree to help me?" Situ was still kneeling on the ground, unmoved, as if he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
"Why are you doing this? Aren't you just a master? If the East Family doesn't fight the West Family, why are you so persistent that you force me so hard?"
"Nangong Yu is more than just a boss to me. He's a friend, a confidant, and even a sworn brother. If anything happens to him, I won't stand idly by. If something like this happened to me today, he would also be obliged to sacrifice for me. So I beg you, please find a way to save him, otherwise I will remain on my knees for the rest of my life until you lend a helping hand."
"Alright, alright. I admit that I'm moved by the deep brotherhood between you two. I promise to help you, okay? Stand up first."
Situ stood up slowly and asked cautiously, "What should we do next?"
Xin Yu: "I truly hate this curse. If it weren't for the shackles of this curse, Xueying and I would have... forgotten it long ago. There's no point in dwelling on the past. You must stay by my side and protect me. Once I summon the evil spirits, I will be at my weakest. If the formation is activated midway, it cannot be closed. If we can't reach an agreement with the evil spirits, then this formation will remain activated forever, and all kinds of evil spirits will emerge to harm the world. If this situation ever occurs, I beg you to kill me with the Heart of Heaven, and then quickly seal the formation to prevent future troubles and prevent tragedy from happening again."
"Does it really have to cost one's life to activate the formation?"
"Not necessarily. I'm just preparing for the worst. You must remember what I just said, otherwise there will be chaos in the world."
