CH 92

TL: Moonlit

Yin Shao stood there in a daze, supposed to rush in and take Bai Yu away.

But at this moment, he suddenly lost the courage to charge in.

The scene before him felt like a heavy blow to Yin Shao’s head. It was so painful that his mind went blank.

He watched the snake demon intimately embrace Bai Yu, saw them snuggle together, and witnessed the snake demon kiss Bai Yu’s cheek.

Yet, Bai Yu didn’t even flinch or avoid it, allowing him to kiss him. And then, he was embraced, indulging in each other’s embrace…

Bai Yu wore a white robe that trailed on the ground, while Chi Xun wore black clothing.

Black and white, complementing each other.

The two of them together, even their clothes matched in color.

The two people before him seemed perfectly matched.

The scene appeared so intimate.

But…

The more intimate the scene, the more it tore Yin Shao’s heart apart, like being stabbed repeatedly!

Yin Shao’s fingers had already clenched into fists. His teeth were tightly clenched, and his eyes were filled with a mist.

He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

His heart was buzzing.

That person belonged to him!

How could he be held in the arms of that snake demon?

And how could he be kissed like that?

The pain in his heart couldn’t be alleviated!

Amidst the discomfort, there was a struggling anger.

Trembling, Yin Shao took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pouch.

It was a note that Bai Yu had written with his own hand.

The paper was already wrinkled, but the words on it were still clear.

“Hoping to be together forever…”

Those were Bai Yu’s deepest wishes, written word by word.

But now, the person who had spoken of being together forever was being held in someone else’s embrace.

He no longer belonged to himself.

Yin Shao truly wanted to rush in, to draw his sword and stab that snake demon to death, and then take Bai Yu back!

The black corruption value skyrocketed, reaching an unimaginable level of terror.

However, he hesitated and didn’t move…

The veins on his fingers were prominent, and the hand gripping the sword hilt seemed ready to strike at any moment.

But he just didn’t move!

Because he knew that he no longer had the right to do so.

He was the one who had thrown Bai Yu into the depths of hell, nearly causing his death.

And the snake demon had saved him.

At a time like this, it was normal for Bai Yu to choose the snake demon…

Bai Yu… He was probably utterly disappointed in him…

Yin Shao forcefully closed his eyes.

His body trembled uncontrollably.

He had been wrong, completely wrong!

The person who had once said they would spend a lifetime together had finally fallen into someone else’s embrace. They were together with someone else…

And he had nothing left.

So… What right did he have to take back Bai Yu?

Everything that had happened was his own doing…

Yin Shao turned his head and looked deeply at Bai Yu. The tears he had been holding back silently streamed down his face.

His heart was filled with pain.

He really wanted to rush over and hold Bai Yu in his arms.

He truly wanted Bai Yu to be with him again.

However, it was too late for everything…

Not wanting to witness their affectionate entanglement any longer, Yin Shao hastily wanted to leave.

But at that moment, Chi Xun’s voice sounded with a deep tone.

“Bai Yu, how about we get married in a few days? Then, you will be my wife. You’ll belong to me. If possible, I really want to hear you call me ‘husband.'”

Yin Shao’s footsteps, which had just lifted, suddenly froze.

“Husband…”

He felt as though his chest was being suffocated. Breathing became difficult for a moment.

Only one voice remained shouting desperately in his mind.

No…

Don’t!

Don’t agree with him!

Yin Shao felt like he was going insane.

He couldn’t control himself at all.

He thought he could leave, thought that as long as Bai Yu was happy, he could let go.

But now, he realized that he couldn’t hand Bai Yu over to someone else.

Even if Bai Yu hated him, he wouldn’t allow Bai Yu to be given to another person!

Bai Yu belonged to him.

He belonged to him!

Before his mind could even process, his body had already acted.

The sword pierced forward, directly pressing against Chi Xun’s neck. He shouted loudly:

“He can’t marry you! Stop dreaming! Bai Yu has already been my spouse. If he marries in this lifetime, it will only be to me!”

Chi Xun never expected this demon hunter to suddenly appear. He even had a sword pressed against his own neck.

His brow furrowed long ago, his eyes filled with both fear and mockery.

“How dare you come? What face do you have to say such things?”

Yin Shao gritted his teeth. He indeed had no face to say such things, but he couldn’t let Bai Yu marry someone else!

Without debating further, Yin Shao directly took out a restraining talisman from his sleeve and stuck it directly on the snake demon’s head.

Then he turned to look at Bai Yu.

“Bai Yu, please don’t marry him, okay? I was wrong, I was truly wrong. I will never do such things again in the future. You can punish me however you want. Just don’t marry him!”

Yin Shao’s face was filled with immense pain. He grabbed Bai Yu’s hand with his own, his words filled with urgency.

But Bai Yu didn’t answer him. Instead, he looked at Yin Shao with fear, struggling incessantly. Because Yin Shao held him too tightly, Bai Yu resorted to using his long nails to scratch Yin Shao’s hand, leaving long, deep gashes.

Finally breaking free from Yin Shao’s grip, Bai Yu retreated to a small corner, curling up and trembling uncontrollably. His eyes were filled with terror.

Yin Shao stood there, completely stunned.

He never expected such a scene to unfold before his eyes.

Bai Yu’s current appearance seemed particularly strange, even his movements as he cowered there were peculiar. It didn’t even seem like something a person would do.

Yin Shao stared blankly at him, watching him continuously shrink back, his eyes filled with fear.

“What happened to him?”

Chi Xun sneered, his eyes filled with sarcasm.

“What happened? How dare you ask me? Ask yourself!”

Yin Shao felt somewhat lost. He had no idea what had happened to Bai Yu. Bai Yu’s appearance was as if he had been possessed.

Yin Shao wanted to approach Bai Yu, but Bai Yu’s fear only grew. He didn’t stand up but instead crawled on all fours, looking incredibly strange.

He didn’t seem like a person at all, but more like an animal.

Yin Shao stared blankly at him, his gaze filled with disbelief.

He forcefully unsheathed his sword and pointed it at Chi Xun.

“Tell me, what happened to him? If you don’t speak, I’ll kill you right now!”

The red glow at the tip of the sword was like a flame, causing a hint of pain to appear on the snake demon’s face.

He gritted his teeth and spoke, “Just as you saw. He is Bai Yu and yet not Bai Yu.”

“What do you mean?”

“You should know that without their inner core, a demon will revert to their original form, right? So, you should also know that once all the spiritual power within him is completely drained, he will lose all his consciousness…”

“So, you mean…”

Unconsciously, Yin Shao took a step back.

“Bai Yu, he… has lost his consciousness. Now, he is just an ordinary rabbit. He can’t come back anymore!”

Yin Shao silently shook his head. He pointed at Bai Yu with his finger and said to Chi Xun, “That’s impossible. Look, he is still maintaining his human form, isn’t he? How can he have lost his consciousness?”

“That’s because I used my demonic power to maintain his human form.” Chi Xun’s eyes flickered with a hint of pain.

“Unfortunately, even if I managed to maintain his human form, what difference does it make? He still won’t smile at me. He won’t cry in front of me. He doesn’t even understand what I’m saying to him. Even if I wanted him to marry me, he doesn’t know what marriage means…”

In the end, Chi Xun shouted out.

“Don’t you understand what I mean? Bai Yu has lost everything!”

Yin Shao’s eyes remained fixed on Chi Xun, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

So…

Even if Bai Yu didn’t die, even if he still maintained his human form…

But the boy who used to play tunes for him, who called him “husband,” had already disappeared…

Is that so?

“That’s impossible!”

He was right there, alive and in front of him.

How could he not come back?

Yin Shao trembled as he walked toward Bai Yu. He bent down, wanting to embrace Bai Yu, who was curled up in the corner.

However, Bai Yu continued to struggle, as if greatly frightened.

Not only did he struggle with his hands, but even his feet began to kick wildly. His long nails left red scratch marks all over Yin Shao’s hand.

In the end, Bai Yu even bit down on Yin Shao’s arm, his teeth sharp enough to pierce through Yin Shao’s skin instantly.

The red blood dripped, one drop at a time, falling to the ground.

The pain was unbearable.

Yin Shao watched him, his eyes turning bloodshot.

Bai Yu’s consciousness had truly disappeared.

He couldn’t fathom it…

When Bai Yu was forced by him to regurgitate his inner core, reverting to his original form, he still foolishly waited there.

During that time, he felt his spiritual power decreasing day by day…

He experienced his consciousness becoming less clear with each passing day…

How desperate must he have felt deep inside?

He wanted to see Yin Shao again before losing his consciousness completely.

He waited and waited…

Until he waited until his last trace of consciousness vanished completely.

But…

He still didn’t get to see the person he wanted to see in his heart. Instead, he directly became what he was now.
