It was said that the royal clan of the ghost domain was buried in the royal tomb. Since Shallow Memory God had taken the place of the ghost empress, she would naturally be buried in the royal tomb.
Could it be that after Shallow Memory God’s death, her divine body was revealed, and Xiao, fearing discovery, buried her far away?
I frowned and thought carefully. The blood droplet finally stopped moving. Looking down, I saw a steep cliff with an invisible bottom.
I was angry, “You only think about your own liberation, but have you ever considered how sad I would be, and what Mu Chuan would think if he knew?”
Qian Yi was stunned, then suddenly laughed: “Yes, I was too selfish.” She sighed, “Because I’ve been lonely for too long. Can you understand the feeling of living alone in these deep mountains and old forests for over four thousand years?”
I pressed my lips together and said nothing. Had she been living here since Xiao’s death? The taste of such loneliness must be truly unbearable, but how could I bring myself to do anything? As I was about to leave, Qian Yi suddenly knelt on the ground facing me: “You can go, I can kneel here for a thousand years.”
I knelt down too: “I’ll kneel with you.”
She stared at me, then suddenly said: “What a stubborn woman.”
She began chanting an incantation I didn’t understand, her voice lingering like a dream whisper, almost like a soft song. I started chanting along, the melody incredibly beautiful.
I suddenly opened my eyes, unable to control my mouth as I continued chanting the spell. Looking at her, a red light was already forming in her chest.
This was clearly a spell to extract one’s soul!
Qian Yi was covered in cold sweat, chanting word by word. She was actually using my mouth to extract her own soul!
As we chanted the spell in unison, tears streamed down my face.
As the final word was spoken, the scarlet soul fell into my hand.
Qian Yi’s face was pale, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth, softly saying: “Finally… freed.”
I crawled over, supporting her, choking: “I’ll take you back to find someone to save you, you can’t die.”
