Vol 2, Chapter 84: Glittering, Gemstone
TL: flarewk
This wasnât only just becoming disadvantaged; wasnât she about to be doomed! If the state of ghost transformation had been removed as well, what sort of backing would she have to go face to face with that fellow!
As expected, Ye Liu Su didnât let go of that chance, and was about to dash over after properly positioning himself, while Xue Qing coughed out blood from her mouth and wielded her blade in a horizontal manner, preparing to have a fight with him to her death.
If I still didnât step up to stop it right now, everything would be too late already!
âStoooooooooooop!â
I yelled while crazily dashing towards Xue Qing. Both people had their attention drawn towards my scream, temporarily halting their actions and looked at me in unison.
âJun Chengâ¦â¦â¦?â
Especially for Xue Qing, as after seeing onto me, she unveiled out an extremely surprised expression, closely followed with her face becoming ghostly pale, and shouted to me even more anxiously compared to when she was encountering danger.
âNo, quickly run!â
Her voice was way louder than usual. She wanted to walk over to convene with me, but hadnât even stepped forward two steps and was halted due to the wound on her abdomen, it being so painful till she wasnât able to straighten up her waist anymore.
You didnât need to force yourself to move! Iâll immediately go to your sides!
âHuh? How did you come in? Iâve already set up the isolation barrier, so there shouldnât be anyone who is able to enter this streetâ¦â¦â¦oh~ I get it, you came in before I arrived here, hmm?â
While paying attention towards his movements, I ran towards Xue Qingâs sides.
I rushed over and supported Xue Qing, just before she wasnât able to prop herself up any longer.
âWhyâ¦â¦..â
âWhat do you mean by âwhyâ! Youâre already like this, canât I even come over!â
While hugging Xue Qing, I went on to inspect her wounds. Her sides had been stabbed, itâs no wonder she was leaking out so much bloodâ¦â¦â¦Iâm not even sure if it had wounded her internal organs as wellâ¦â¦â¦tch!
Whatâs bizarre was that Ye Liu Su didnât continue on his assault, instead being extremely interested as he observed me and asked.
âLooks like the relationship between you and her arenât shallow at all? Whatâs your name, boy?â
âI have nothing to say to you.â
âOho, such an arrogant attitudeâ¦â¦â¦if Iâm to kill him right in front of you, your expression should have changes then? Hehee, I suddenly feel like seeing you in tears~â
This damning fellow, he had actually started to play with us, huh!
âJun Chengâ¦â¦â¦â
âRest properly, Iâll think up of something.â
Thereâs still one last solutionâ¦â¦â¦
However, Iâm not sure if that solution would be effective or notâ¦â¦â¦plus, even if it was effective, I had no clue on what to do afterwards as well. Howeverâ¦â¦â¦I could only do it!
I gulped in the saliva in my mouth with a *gu dong* sound, lowering my head and waitedâ¦â¦â¦
The instance that a foot stepped into my line of sight, I hugged Xue Qing tightly, opened up my mouth and yelled!
âYe Liu Su!â
Screamed out his name loudly with focused concentration!
âYe Liu Su!â
âEhâ¦â¦â¦! How did you know my nameâ¦â¦â¦â
Even if itâs not a âtrue nameâ, it by right would more or less display out some effects!
Itâs impossible on wanting to control the other side, as about that, Xiang Yue Xun had already told it to me.
However, if itâs to temporarily restrain the other partyâs movements, it should still be possibleâ¦â¦â¦.
âStop there! Donât move!â
Iâve nearly said it out while having both my arms raised upwards already.
But itâs sufficient for just the first two words, becauseâ¦â¦â¦
It worked!
Ye Liu Suâs entirety gave off a tremble as he dumbly stood at his original position, with his astonished eyes expressing out the current wavering within his mind!
Next, what should I doâ¦â¦â¦of course, itâs to attack!
With that thought just only appearing, Xue Qing who was in my arms had already dashed out!
She instinctively exploited that loophole, firmly grasping the short knife within her hands and stabbed towards Ye Liu Suâs heart!
The position wherein the knife pierced had blood gushing out like a fountain of pillar.
Ye Liu Su had his eyes unbelievably gaping wide, as he gazed at his bleeding heart that had been pierced through, wanting to use his hands to clutch onto it, yet wasnât able to no matter how much he clutched. His body was already able to move, but could only trip three to four steps backwards, and fell down with a *pu tong* sound.
â¦â¦â¦She did it!
âPhewâ¦â¦â¦!â
She did it!!!
She killed him!
âThatâs too impressive already! I havenât even reacted, and youâre already dashing over!â
After hugging the wobbly Xue Qing and placing her on the ground, I knelt down on one knee and said in awe.
âJun, Chengâ¦â¦..â
âDonât move about, Xue Qing, Iâll first help to bandage you up.â
I indicated to let her lie down properly in order to make it convenient for me to help her bandage the wound at her abdomen, but she continued on speaking.
âStill notâ¦â¦â¦â
Still not what?
âYou bratâ¦â¦â¦â
âWhaâ¦â¦â¦!â
Thereâs a voice resounding from right behind me!
He actually still havenât died, huh!
âIâll kill you!â
I used my fastest speed onto lifting up Xue Qing, but itâs too late to dodge it already!
Damn itâ¦â¦â¦! Iâm too careless!
I should have went over to provide a few extra additional stabs as wellâ¦â¦â¦thatâs a murderous ghoul after all, and even if his heart was to be pierced, he wouldnât die on the spot!
Iâm about to get stabbedâ¦â¦â¦
But, nothing happened.
I turned around in bewildermentâ¦â¦â¦perhaps I shouldnât have turned around, as I wouldnât have seen that scene then.
Unbeknownst to me, Bai Yu Hui had dashed right between the both of us, and had hugged onto my back.
Blades are heartless.
It cleaved downwards without giving me an opportunity to react, tearing her clothes and skin apart, leaving an indeterminable gash behind on her back.
Yu Hui who was facing me deeply wrinkled her eyebrows, but eventually spewed out a mouthful of blood unresistingly, it entirely spraying on my face, closely followed by her plastering on my back. I spun around and hugged her.
âUuuâ¦â¦â¦â
Seeing the slash mark on her back turning red, my mind became blank.
Why would it turn redâ¦â¦..?
I who wasnât able to lie at all couldnât even lie to myself. Even though Iâm unwilling to face the truth, I still became aware of itâ¦â¦..
Itâs bloodâ¦â¦..
Fresh blood leaked out from Bai Yu Huiâs back, seeping into the asphalt road.
My face was splattered full of Yu Huiâs blood, dripping into my eyes, feeling a sensation of prickling pain yet didnât close them up.
âHm? A sacrifice on blocking the blade? Such a relationship isnât bad at allâ¦â¦â¦but, next up will be you, brat!â
The voice that was the origin of evil resounded right ahead, his eye expression full of fury, with the status on his head becoming dyed red.
I gritted my teeth, while having my lips trembling, as I tightly hugged onto her, using my hands to clutch her wounds with my head lowered.
I heard Xue Qing calling out my name, but it felt like it was at such a far distance away.
Xue Qing who afterwards rushed before my front swung her blade, forcing the man to stay far away from me thereafter, turned around to glance at me and Yu Hui whoâs within my embrace.
Blades crossed each other; it felt like those stuff were happening in another world, indistinct and distant.
From my unnaturally gaping mouth leaked out a sound. Thatâs a sound, emanated from the depths of my chest and utilized on my throat, that I gave with uncontrollably bursting emotions, yet I wasnât sure if itâs a crying sob or a furious roar.
âAaaaaâ¦â¦â¦eraaaaaaaa!â
My faultâ¦â¦â¦itâs all my fault!
If Iâm only able to be slightly more carefulâ¦â¦â¦if I had only reacted to it in the nick of timeâ¦â¦..!
Damn itâ¦â¦..!
Damn ittt!!!
The strength within my hands subconsciously slowly increased. I tightly hugged Yu Hui whoâs within my embrace, with my eyes feeling that itâs about to leak tears out. I hastily shut my eyes up, intending to hold it in and not cry, but squeezed out the tears that had completely filled up my eyes instead.
ââ¦â¦â¦Even if a man have tears, they shouldnât be batting easilyâ¦â¦â¦tears donât suit you, Jun Cheng-dà renâ¦â¦..â
A feeble voice rang into my ears. Hands that had turned icy cold caressed my face, and wiped away the tears that I just leaked.
I hastily wrenched open my eyes, carrying a gaze of surprised delight looking at that person in my arms.
âYu Hui?!â
âPlease donât shout loudlyâ¦â¦â¦Iâm a little giddyâ¦â¦â¦â
âAh, sorry, sorry! Itâs such a relief that youâre still awake!â
She still hadnât lost her consciousness, huh?! As a girl, wasnât she too tenacious already!
No wait, this wasnât the time to be rebutting!
Itâs such a relief!
Itâs really such a relief!
âMmâ¦â¦â¦if this goes on, Iâll fall into unconsciousness from loss of bloodâ¦â¦â¦can you help to bandage up my wounds?â
She excruciatingly spat out that sentence with half her eyes prised open.
âHold on! Iâll immediately bandage you up!â
I stripped off her clothes and bra in nearly a state of aggressiveness, hastily using the short knife to tear her clothes up into two pieces afterwards, and used one of them to wrap up the wound through the sides of her shoulders to her back. After completing it, I once more pulled it towards the front of her chest and tied a knot.
âHold on! Yu Hui! Youâll be able to go out immediately! Please donât let anything happen to you!â
ââ¦â¦â¦Uuu, you donât need to blame yourself too muchâ¦â¦â¦this is what Iâ¦â¦..should be doingâ¦â¦..â
She had already turned into that state, yet she was still worried about my feelings, huhâ¦â¦â¦!
She as well, you as wellâ¦â¦â¦all of you are idiots!
She feebly gave off a smile, and powerlessly held my hands and spoke.
âPlease donât worry about itâ¦â¦â¦Iâm already using true qi to stop the bleedingâ¦â¦â¦itâll be fine in the short termâ¦â¦â¦coughâ¦â¦â¦â
âDonât speak anymore! Arenât you already spitting out blood! Still acting tough!â
I used a hand to support Yu Hui up, hugging onto her waist, and carefully shifted her to the sides of the street.
âThis kind of sensation where my consciousness is slowly drifting awayâ¦â¦â¦itâs been a long timeâ¦â¦â¦â
âHa? What stupidity are you saying! Donât sleep! You must stay awake!â
Whatâs good to be reminiscent about being wounded!
âOf course; itâs not easyâ¦â¦â¦to finally be able to not sleep anymore, I still want to stay by your side even longerâ¦â¦â¦â
âI remember, that lifetimeâ¦â¦â¦I died in your arms just like thatâ¦â¦â¦thinking back to it right nowâ¦â¦â¦thatâs also a kind of unprecedented happiness tooâ¦â¦â¦
âDonât spout foolish words anymore, you wonât die!â
ââ¦â¦â¦I donât want to die tooâ¦â¦..but, Iâm so sleepyâ¦â¦â¦â
âDonât sleep!â
However, no matter how much I cried out, Bai Yu Hui still closed up her eyes.
No, even if itâs like that, the bleeding still wasnât able to be stopped at allâ¦â¦â¦! The wound was too deep already!
If I only had an emergency first aid kit; itâs fine even if itâs just bandages too, were there anything around that would be able to treat herâ¦â¦â¦
Treatâ¦â¦â¦got it!
Oh right, whatâs the situation currently like?
I hastily lifted up my head to locate Xue Qing and Ye Liu Su. The both of them were heavily wounded, with both parties wobbling about. Whatâs contested in the end wasnât technique, and neither strength, but willpower.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
I must create an opportunity for Xue Qing!
I too didnât know what came up over me, perhaps due to instinct, or perhaps due to the natural reflexes of my body, as in any case, I pulled out that magatama without any consideration placed into it at all, swung it by its string and hurled it over while loudly yelling.
âXue Qing! Close your eyes!â
The magatama turned green to red in mid-air, with burning flames once again igniting. Having his eyes dazzled by the sudden ignited blaze, Ye Liu Su covered up his eyes in counterpoise.
âEhâ¦â¦â¦whatâs thisâ¦â¦â¦.!â
When Xue Qing saw this blaze previously, she too immediately distanced away from me, with an appearance of being unwilling to get close to me, so it should also by right be effective towards Ye Liu Su!
The magatama which fell onto the ground gave off a loud crisp sound, with the blazing flame too becoming extinguished.
Ye Liu Su was still clutching his eyes while waving his blade about wildly.
Itâs of course impossible for Xue Qing to pass up this opportunity, as she sliced the other partyâs weapon along with his wrist off!
Although heâs unable to see anything, he still instinctively swiftly retreated backwards after losing his wrist.
Xue Qing immediately stepped forward, leaping out speedily, gripping her blade firmly with both hands and plunged it right into Ye Liu Suâs stomach!
But it still wasnât yet enough, as she instantly spun her body and shifted the blade!
The blade drew out a blood colored semi circle in mid-air!
*Pa ta pa ta*, organs from within the sliced open abdomen fell out onto the ground faster than his body, with Ye Liu Suâs expression completely becoming dumbfoundedâ¦â¦â¦then, he crumpled.
The status disappeared, heâs finally thoroughly dead!
