When I fell into a coma, I don't know.

It was as if he had fallen into another long dream.

When I woke up, I found that I was still alive.

Opening his eyes, he was shocked to find that Yue Ze was close by his side. I was in his arms, to be exact.

Golden dragon qi swirled around his body, forming a shining shield that protected the top of our heads. Even the rain was blocked.

The rain had become small, but the thunder and lightning in the sky continued to rumble, creating countless sparks in the forest. As a result, green smoke began to continuously rise from the forest, and then the forest began to blaze.

Winter in the north was dry and rainy, and the forest was prone to fire. Although the rain from before had dampened the surface, the fire from the heavenly fire was not to be underestimated.

My whole body was in so much pain that even the slightest movement would cause me to groan.

Yue Ze gingerly held me in his arms, a trace of pity flashing across his face. "Lian'er, don't move! The heavenly thunders are still continuing! "

I turned my head to look at the hill. On that side, Yan Hua was lying on his side in the forest. His long hair was in disarray and he was motionless, as though he had fallen into a coma.

I was shocked and asked Yue Ze in a hoarse voice, "Have you finished your ceremony? Has the dragon aura been transferred? "

A trace of unease flashed across Yue Ze's face, but he didn't reply.

I didn't need to answer, I knew the answer.

The dragon aura around Yue Ze's body had clearly become stronger, while the light on Yan Hua's side had become dimmer. While I was unconscious, Yueze must have had what he wanted.

An indescribable anger and regret seized me. I abruptly pulled away from Yueze's arm, but was quickly seized by him. He firmly held me in his embrace, and growled, "Aren't you going to go through a tribulation? Let's wait for the thunder and lightning to subside first!

I ignored him and raised my hand to slap him ruthlessly. There was a crisp "pa" sound and both of us were stunned for a moment.

Then, while he was still in a daze, I pushed myself free and rolled down the slope.

A raging fire raged around Yan Hua, and he was surrounded by it.

I got up with difficulty and threw myself at him. After doing all of this, my body was in uncontrollable pain.

The punishment inflicted by the divine lightning was bone-piercing pain. However, it couldn't compare to the pain and remorse he felt right now.

Yan Hua once said that his body was harmed by poison. If I hadn't fed him poison wine last night, he wouldn't have fallen to his current state.

Or perhaps, if I hadn't pestered him to help me go through this tribulation, his own magic would have been powerful enough and he wouldn't have been so weak that he would have been ambushed.

I'm the one who killed him!

I lay down beside Yan Hua and gently shook his body.

Tears of remorse and rain poured down.

On that side, Yueze, who was on the hill, didn't immediately chase us. Instead, he stood outside the clearing and quietly watched us.

He remained silent.

I was not in the mood to care about his feelings. I just focused on channeling my energy into my zhenqi for Yan Hua.

Yan Hua, you must wake up!

The thunder continued to roll in the sky, and the rain gradually grew heavier. A gale arose, blowing out the wildfire within the forest that was brightening up and extinguishing, with the intention of becoming more and more intense.

This Heavenly Tribulation was not over. In the wind and rain, lightning flash in the firelight, I held Yan Hua, a desolate heart.

Yan Hua, please wake up!

After a long while, maybe I had used my true qi, or maybe the faint dragon qi on Yan Hua's body was supporting him, he actually opened his eyes a little!

"Join …"

He could no longer complete the sentence, but was trying to get me to move closer to him.

"I like it... I... "I like you …"

Her pale and beautiful lips slightly opened and closed, emitting a disjointed sound. That was Yan Hua's confession to Bai Lian.

Even though I had warned him that I wasn't his favorite white company, he was adamant that he wouldn't give up.

"I like you too, Yan Hua."

I said it, and then, quickly, solemnly, kissed him.

The touch of his lips was like a feather brushing against the surface of the water. The only thing it brought was a slight ice-cold sensation.

However, this kiss, this man's scent, I think, I will never forget for the rest of my life.

And I will never be able to make up for this person's guilt for the rest of my life.

Yan Hua's eyes slowly closed, and his lips curved into a pale smile. It was as if the violet flames had withered in the wind, and the purple-haired man had left me just like that.

At the same time, I heard Yue Ze's scream, "Lian'er! Be careful of the heavenly thunder! "

I didn't need to look up to know that the heavenly thunder had struck down — this was the last heavenly tribulation.

The ninth heavenly tribulation was the most powerful and destructive of heavenly tribulation. If the weak were to be touched by it, they would die.

I was already powerless to fight back, unable to hide, and even more so, I didn't want to abandon Yan Hua and escape by myself. So, I just stayed where I was and buried my face in Yan Hua's chest.

It's not like there's no fear in my heart. Even ants have a sneaky heart, let alone me who has already cultivated to the Immortal Realm.

However, I really didn't want to abandon Yan Hua's body. I didn't want to see him be chopped into ashes even after he died.

Besides, where can I escape to now? Could it be that he wanted to run to Yue Ze's side and ask him to help me block the attack?

If one were to say that Yan Hua's death left endless regret in my heart, then Yue Ze was a person that I didn't wish to hurt.

I hate him for what he did to Yan Hua, but I don't want him to get hurt. He is someone I like, even if it is just a little bit of harm, I do not want to see.

Thus, I stayed where I was and didn't move. I intended to use all of my mana to forcibly overcome this calamity.

However, before the lightning struck him, Yue Ze had already rushed over!

With a bang, the golden dragon shield was propped up, forming a tight barrier around them.

Yueze stared down at me, his eyes full of jealousy and anger. "Do you really want to die with him?"

He glared at me, his voice bitter.

I sneered and pushed him away. "Your dragon aura is hard to come by. Why do you need to use it to break it?"

Yueze blanked out for a moment, before becoming even angrier. His handsome face was twisted in anger.

I quickly picked up Yan Hua and ran a bit further away.

The heavenly thunder was rolling down and it seemed like it was going to hit his body. How could I let Yue Ze be implicated? The dragon qi he wanted was the Son of Heaven's Qi that could rule the world. It was related to the fate and future of the country of Nanyu and it was related to the lives of all under the heavens …

Alright, actually, I am not interested in the lives of the world, nor do I have any pity for them. However, I know that all of this is extremely important to Yueze. His dream was to become an enlightened king, unifying the world and chasing the deer from the Central Plains. Therefore, this dragon aura was of utmost importance to him. How could I use him to help me fend off heavenly tribulation?

I struggled to get farther away, a distance that had drained my strength.

I fell to the ground, panting, Yan Hua in my arms.

In a split-second, the last bolt of heavenly lightning finally rolled down, rumbling towards me …

However, my vision went dark, my body flipped, and someone hugged me!

"Hey …"

I managed to cry out and twist my body, but someone pressed down on me and held me down. His chest was pressed against my face, and I couldn't move, not even my eyes. However, he caught a whiff of the faint scent of a Violet Roland from the side of his nose. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a glimmer of golden light … It was dragon qi! Pure dragon qi!

The one pressing down on me is Yan Hua?

I was astonished, and for a moment there was ecstasy in my heart, and then a moment of overwhelming despair.

How is that possible? Why does he have dragon aura on him? He was clearly transferred to Yue Ze, and he had already breathed his last in front of me.
