Cheng Shi dragged the corpse backwards, vomiting blood as he walked back to the previous battlefield.
Ji Yue is still dying there, we can't just ignore it.
Yes, the Firebringer was really dead, and the battle was not fake. Although both sides were acting, the fighting was not fake at all. Even Ji Yue's final self-destructive attack was her real back-up plan that she had never revealed before.
Otherwise, you won't be able to fool even a shrewd historian.
It was precisely because of the desperate bombardment between the two sides that Cheng Shi's seriously injured state seemed more realistic. After all, it couldn't be acted out, and Cheng Shi was indeed blown to the point of vomiting blood.
He hadn't expected Ji Yue to be so dedicated. The final, decisive blow, a fight to the death with a true enemy, was just that...
At the moment when he was blown away by the flames, Cheng Shi even wondered if the other party did it on purpose, just to avenge him for deceiving her?
But isn’t she afraid that I won’t come to save her?
Facts have proved that no matter whether Ji Yue is afraid or not, Cheng Shi cannot get past this hurdle.
He couldn't abandon a teammate who had risked his life for his plan without even making eye contact.
This was indeed Cheng Shi's plan. He had thought of all this when he realized that Zhao Xishi might use his previous memories to tamper with his actions. However, at that time, under the enemy's nose, he had lost the opportunity to communicate with Ji Yue. So, at the moment when their backs were leaning against each other, Cheng Shi quietly wrote two words on Ji Yue's waist with his left and right elbows:
Kill me.
Ji Yue was so smart that she understood Cheng Shi's meaning at the first moment. Although she didn't know how to act to deceive Zhao Xishi, she knew that she had to pretend to be against him and kill him, but she couldn't kill him.
The priest is not dead, and everyone on the field is saved.
But once the priest dies, there is nothing left but to wait for death.
As for the extent of the feud, it depends on the strength of the Weaver of Destiny in the subsequent internal conflict.
But she didn't expect that just as she received Cheng Shi's plan, Zhao Xishi's plan also came.
The "dead" memories rolled back, allowing Ji Yue to instantly find the light guiding her towards the fire!
Cheng Shi!
This liar who never speaks the truth actually used a huge lie to trick himself into the Fire Bearer who didn't exist!
At that moment, Ji Yue was really angry.
The violence of [War] magnified her shame and anger, but Chuanhuo's rationality kept her restrained. However, as Cheng Shi's attacks became more and more severe, Ji Yue knew that this game had to be made real enough.
So, taking the opportunity of acting, she really got angry at Cheng Shi.
However, she never told any lies from the beginning to the end of the battle, so outsiders naturally had no way of telling the truth from the false.
Until she saw the thunder pouring down on her body and closed her eyes in peace, the last thought in her mind was:
How embarrassing will it be when the Weaver of Destiny rescues me again?
It's already embarrassing.
Cheng Shi stood beside Ji Yue's body, digging his toes into the ground.
It is indeed hard to look at the immaturity of youth, but who would have thought that a lie told a few months ago could also give a liar goosebumps all over his body.
If the Fire Bearer is rescued, what will the first thing he says?
Are you Cheng Xin or Qin Shi?
In Ji Yue's original understanding, he should be the founder of the Fire Bearer, right?
A madman who attempts to become a god in order to spread the flame...
Alas, what a sin.
But not saving her was definitely not an option. Cheng Shi took a few deep breaths, took out the Lush Horn Crown, and pulled Ji Yue out of her death state.
Watching the delicate skin being reborn in the charred state, Cheng Shi looked away to avoid suspicion. When he turned around, he heard the Bishop of Purgatory at his feet ask with a half-smile:
"Why, are you going to tell me that you are also the man behind Qin Xin?"
“…”
Why are there so many men behind Qin Xin?
It's not...any of that nonsense.
Cheng Shi shook his head and sighed:
"It's not easy for everyone to survive. Who hasn't been cheated? If you want to kill me or cut me up, just say it. There's no need to be so sarcastic.
It's not a big deal that I was scolded, but Qin Xin was wronged."
"Are you still feeling sorry for him?" Ji Yue stood up, took out a set of clothes and put them on. Looking at Cheng Shi's back, she wanted to say something, but in the end it all turned into a sigh.
"You're really not a Firebringer?"
Cheng Shi shook his head: "You should have seen my will clearly a long time ago. I have no fire to pass on. I just want to live."
"So what are you talking about becoming a god..."
“!!!”
Cheng Shi became anxious.
If you're not my sister, why are you still whipping my corpse?
Yes, I was wrong to cheat people, but you were so eager to be cheated by me, don’t you have any responsibility at all?
Cheng Shi looked back at Ji Yue, and met her eyes that were still slightly expectant. He couldn't utter any rebuttal, so he could only change the subject abruptly:
"Chen Shu is still fighting with Mo Shu. As a companion, what you should do now is to care about him."
“…”
Ji Yue was silent for a moment. Although she didn't say anything, Cheng Shi still read a sentence from her embarrassed look, which was:
If it was Chen Shu who died, it wouldn't be a problem.
What was even more embarrassing was that Ji Yue also read Cheng Shi's fleeting eyes and saw his agreement with this sentence...
The scene fell silent again.
After a moment, Ji Yue looked at Zhao Xishi's body behind Cheng Shi with a slightly cold look.
"What did you ask?"
"No, we can't give the villains too much time, otherwise they'll easily turn the tables." Cheng Shi smiled, "But it's not too late to ask now."
