Chapter 166: The Last Parting.

Chapter 166

Yu Yifan and Yu Jiaojiao helped take care of Third Auntie's aftermath. The others were too busy with their own affairs.

Xiao Han went to buy some medicines to protect the fetus. She personally cooked them every day for Sang Li to drink. Over the past few days, Sang Li had been lying in bed most of the time to protect the fetus.

Gu Zhi naturally thought she was having her period and not feeling well physically, so he stayed by her side to take care of her every day.

But Xiao Zimo had already smelled something off about those medicines.

"Hanhan..." Xiao Zimo pushed his wheelchair into the kitchen.

"Xiao Zimo, why did you come to the kitchen?" Xiao Han immediately covered up the medicine pot.

Xiao Zimo took a look at the medicine pot. "You don't have to hide it from me. I smelled long ago that it was medicine to protect the fetus."

"..."

Xiao Han immediately looked out the door. "Shh... I'll say, do you have a dog's nose? You can even smell that out?"

"So, Sang Li is pregnant?"

Xiao Han hurriedly covered his mouth. "Keep your voice down. Gu Zhi can definitely not know about this!"

Xiao Zimo looked at her. "You're not being fair to Gu Zhi by doing this."

"Oh, I'm telling you, don't meddle too much! If you dare tell Gu Zhi, I...I won't talk to you anymore!"

Xiao Zimo paused and lowered his eyes slightly. "Alright, after all...you'll be leaving soon anyway."

Seeing his expression like that, Xiao Han suddenly grabbed his hand. "Xiao Zimo, I'm not very good with words, but...you're the first person of the opposite sex to make me feel something good. Even when I'm gone from this world, I'll remember you forever."

Xiao Zimo gripped her hand back. "Hanhan, in this life, you will be my only wife."

Even after Xiao Han left, he would never marry.

...

By the time Su Mo arrived at Qiyi Mountain, three days had already passed. She had rushed desperately for three days to get here.

The sect of the Dark Cabinet was located at Qiyi Mountain, but she did not know the exact location.

However, she knew there was a mass grave on the mountain where she had been dumped after faking her death.

Arriving at the mass grave, rows of motionless corpses assaulted her nerves.

"Wu Ying...Wu Ying...where are you?" Tears slid down Su Mo's face as she pried open one corpse after another, searching for Wu Ying's figure.

"It's me, Su Mo. Please, answer me, okay? Don't play this kind of joke on me, Wu Ying..."

Suddenly, a sword imprinted itself in Su Mo's line of sight.

Su Mo recognized it as Wu Ying's sword and immediately ran over.

A figure in black clothes entered her eyes straightaway alongside the sword.

Blood dyed the earth red, and even the soil on the ground had turned red. Broken bones were sticking out from his arms and legs, while his flesh was mangled.

Su Mo covered her mouth and stood to the side, not daring to turn over that person for a long time.

No, this isn't Wu Ying! This isn't Wu Ying!

Su Mo slowly squatted down, and even her outstretched hand was trembling slightly.

When Wu Ying's body was turned over, a ghastly yet familiar face crashed into Su Mo's pupils.

Su Mo instantly slumped down to the ground, her mind going completely blank as tears had already blurred her vision.

"No...no..." Su Mo kept shaking her head vigorously, seemingly on the verge of madness.

She hugged Wu Ying and pulled him into her arms, crying her heart out. "I know you're not dead. Hurry and wake up now, okay? This kind of joke isn't funny at all! Wake up, Wu Ying. I won't leave, I won't go back, I don't want the treasure map anymore, I don't want anything anymore, so please just wake up!"

At this time, Hua Wuyou had also arrived with Xia Miaomiao.

Seeing the scene before them, even Xia Miaomiao couldn't help but cry, and Hua Wuyou's eyes had reddened.

"Please...Wu Ying...wake up now! I won't leave anymore, I really won't leave! Didn't you say you would marry me? You liar!"

Su Mo grasped his hand and suddenly felt something in it. She lowered her head to look at Wu Ying's hand and saw he was clutching something tightly, as if holding onto something very important.

She pried his fingers open with great difficulty and discovered he was actually holding onto the sword tassel she had gifted him!

Su Mo looked at the blood-stained sword tassel, her eyes filled with bloodshot lines.

"Ah..."

Su Mo let out a heart-wrenching scream and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood before fainting next to Wu Ying.

"Mo Mo!" Xia Miaomiao and Hua Wuyou immediately ran over.

...

Su Mo was unconscious for three days.

Overwhelmed by grief and anguish knotted up in her heart, she was unable to face reality.

He made the Head of the [Dark Cabinet] mistakenly believe that he took the treasure map in order to defect to the imperial court's side.

[Su Mo] went back to the room and opened the letter.

[[Su Mo], by the time you read this letter, I may be gone already.

I know you must be sad, but you must not do anything rash. I'm an assassin, and countless people have died by my hands over the years. Death does not frighten me, rather it is a kind of release. The only thing I regret is that I won't be able to see your face one last time.

I'm thankful to the heavens for allowing me to meet you, for letting there finally be a ray of light in my dark life, for allowing me to have an unforgettable love before I die.

You must continue living well. When you return to your world, you must find someone who loves you more than I do.

I only have one selfish request, that you remember me forever.

[Bai Yichen]'s last words.]

[Su Mo]'s tears wet the letter.

[Bai Yichen], no matter which world we are in, no one will ever love me more than you.

...

The three days passed by quickly. Because of [Wu Ying]'s matter, these past few days had not been good for them.

On the last night, their phones suddenly notified them of low battery and imminent shutdown.

At the same time, they also received a text message.

[Warning! If you do not activate the treasure map before noon today, you will disappear forever!]

The four looked at the message on their phones and sank into silence.

They looked at the four treasure maps on the table. If they pieced the four maps together, it would form the cover of the ancient book at the museum.

"[Su Mo] said, "You go say your final goodbyes to them. I'll wait here."

After a pause, the sisters got up and left the room.

The men were sitting anxiously in the yard.

The three came out and looked at them, and they looked back.

"Are you...leaving soon?" [Xiao Zimo] asked first.

"Yes..."

The three ran over and hugged them directly.

A silent embrace, as if bidding their final farewell.

With a thousand words left unsaid, at this moment, they couldn't get a single word out, choked up.

"Sister..."

"Little bunny..."

"Hanhan..."

"Take care..." The three let go of them and ran back into the room without looking back.

The more words said, the harder it was to part.

The more they looked, the harder it was to part.

Back in the room, they changed into the clothes they were wearing when they first crossed over.

[Lan City] had already entered winter, and they couldn't help but shiver in their summer clothes.

"Is everyone ready?"

"Mm."

"Eight months felt like a dream. We'll know the truth when we get back."

Each person took a treasure map, and slowly pieced them together according to the patterns.

A golden light suddenly flashed from the seams, firmly sticking the four maps together.

The treasure map suddenly flew into the air and started spinning.

The few felt the world spin around them. Just like when they first arrived, in the blink of an eye, the people in the room vanished.

Seeing this, the three men immediately ran into the room.

The treasure map in the air also suddenly disappeared. The entire room sank into dead silence, as if no one had ever been there.

"[Hua Wuyou] said weakly, "They're gone, they really left..."

The three said nothing more, just sitting quietly.

Suddenly, anomalous changes occurred in the sky outside, and the earth shook violently.

Before the three could react, a red light shot down from the sky into the room.
