"Master Luo Si?"
Tang Xiaotang was acutely aware that someone was approaching and she immediately woke up to see Luo Si standing in front of her bed.
Seeing that she had woken up, he whispered, "It's time for us to leave. They've caught up."
Tang Xiaotang thought of the white-clothed people in the original owner's memories, she immediately contacted the mysterious army that had ended the war and ended it. However, the final information on the whereabouts of this mysterious army was completely blank, with just one sentence from the vengeful spirit, she explained everything to them. This made Tang Xiaotang start to suspect if the ones in charge of collecting the information were the same group as the vengeful spirits.
"Alright."
Not long after they left, the city was surrounded by white robed men. They were looking for something, but they found nothing. The Old Man of the inn fell into a pool of blood with his eyes wide open. The corpses of the homeless people piled up together with the few men who ran away.
They killed everyone in the city, and then a great fire rose up and set the city on fire.
And all of this, Tang Xiaotang and Luo Si did not know.
Tang Xiaotang followed Luo Si the whole way, and she felt that something was very wrong with Luo Si. He became more and more silent, they kept on rushing, and other than letting her rest, they almost never stopped. She did not know where she was going, but he did not answer her question to Luo Si.
At night.
The orange colored flame was the only bright spot in the dark night. Tang Xiaotang sat next to the bonfire and she was not far away.
"Master Luo Si, where are we going?"
Tang Xiaotang broke the silence. She had a nagging feeling that Luo Si had been in a bad state these past few days.
Initially, he had thought Luo Si would still not reply, but this time, after being silent for a long while, he told her.
"The Saint-level. Let's go to the Saint-level."
In the Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, Tang Xiaotang had seen many ancient books in Luo Si's study. Among them, one of them had mentioned that it was the place where the gods were born and went to sleep, the purest place of all faith. It was said that only the gods knew its location, and ordinary people couldn't even enter that place.
So indeed, the curse could no longer be suppressed? Other than this explanation, Tang Xiaotang couldn't think of anything else to explain why she was hurrying along.
"Master Luo Si … "Is your curse acting up again …"
she asked in a low voice as she looked at the black figure standing with his back to the flames. However, there was no response even after a long time had passed.
Luo Si endured the ice-cold pain in his chest. He knew that his attack that day had indeed triggered the curse ahead of time … Could he not even last seven days?
"No, I'm fine." After enduring the pain, he said in a low voice, "We came there to retrieve something."
He sensed that he was about to fall asleep, but if even he fell asleep, those monsters would definitely destroy the world … Only that thing can seal them …
It was his fault, and he had to make up for it.
Even though Luo Si tried his best to conceal it, Tang Xiaotang could still hear the trace of trembling in his voice.
She lowered her eyes. No matter what, Luo Si couldn't fall asleep. Perhaps the Sacred Domain would have a way to remove the curse.
Another day passed, and they walked faster and faster. Tang Xiaotang felt that Luo Si's condition became even worse, the points on the map became even more faint, and Tang Xiaotang could also feel the cold Qi being emitted from his cloak, but he did not care about him, and did not stay any longer.
"Master Luo Si! What's wrong with you?! "
Luo Si who was walking in front suddenly stopped, seeing him staggering forward, and anxiously supporting him, she realised that the Spirit Qi on his body was ice cold to the bone, the dark red lines covered every inch of his bones, wriggling on the snow-white bones, it was extremely shocking.
He paused and slowly turned to her. "I'm fine." She struggled to get up, but in the next second, he kneeled down on the ground again. Then, Tang Xiaotang saw those dark red marks seem to have absorbed something, and it became even clearer.
She could not bear to look anymore, so she resolutely made a decision. She crouched down in front of him, and said resolutely: "Master Luo Si, let me carry you on my back!"
"There's no need …" Before he finished his sentence, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. The dark red lines climbed up his face, almost covering him entirely.
"Master Luo Si! You must live! So come on up! I can carry you on my back! "
Tang Xiaotang knew that he might not be able to move anymore … As the runes absorbed his power, they became even more difficult to deal with. Their goal was to swallow him whole!
Luo Si went silent, but in the end, he still came to a compromise, "If you are tired, you must stop and rest, understand?"
"Yes!" I got it! " Tang Xiaotang turned around and smiled, "Then let's go!"
She continued to carry Luo Si on her back. Actually, Luo Si couldn't be considered heavy since he only had a skeleton, but he was too cold. The cold aura kept seeping in from behind him, unable to even cover him with his cape. Tang Xiaotang felt that her internal organs were about to be drenched in the cold air, she forced herself to stay still as she walked forward with big steps.
Luo Si's condition became even worse. He was currently almost in a semi-conscious state, and because Tang Xiaotang didn't know where Absolute Monarch Sanctuary was, she could only rely on the road that he had pointed out to herself as she travelled westwards without stopping for a moment.
Along the way, she met many refugees. They told her that there were no rebels in the west and that there was a city where they were all going. They had invited Tang Xiaotang to accompany them, but Tang Xiaotang had refused. She could not allow others to discover Luo Si's secret, he could not even go invisible now. Luckily the cloak covered his entire body, so he did not look so strange.
On the evening of the sixth day, they finally arrived at the city where the wanderers were kept.
Half of the sun had already set and a full moon was faintly discernable in the sky. Tang Xiaotang remembered that the last time Luo Si's curse acted up was on a full moon night, so she had to find a place to rest before nightfall today.
She walked through the city gate with difficulty, carrying Luo Si and following the crowd. But the cold had soaked every inch of her body, and her lips were trembling. She felt as if she were naked in ice water, unable to feel any heat.
If not for the support of her mental power, she definitely wouldn't have been able to walk so far … However, my spiritual power has been completely used up …
Gritting her teeth, she moved forward. Soon … She could already see the doorstep of the building and immediately … Soon, it will be here …
However, her vision suddenly darkened, and she fell to the ground at the door, unable to hold on any longer. Before falling down, she still remembered to protect Luo Si well, and not let his cape fall.
Seeing Luo Si steadily falling onto her body, Tang Xiaotang finally lost consciousness.
