Chapter 275 - Ghosts

Chen Ye was preparing to leave, but he had no choice but to sit beside me.

"Chen Ye, the Phoenix Blood — In order to obtain it, you must have paid a large price."

Chen Ye's expression was extremely unwilling, but he spoke honestly, "Yes. In order to obtain the Phoenix Blood, I exchanged blows with seventy-two of king of seventy-two pillars's ghosts, and was injured by them. "

"Seventy-two ghosts? but are they the subordinates of the eighteen ghosts and gods under Chu Yu? "

"Yes …"

"Then why did they stop you from taking the Phoenix Blood to save Chu Yu?"

"Because the Spirit King has yet to return to life, the seventy-two ghosts naturally obeyed king of seventy-two pillars. However, they knew what I was planning and they didn't use force against me. "

"Then how did you get such a heavy injury?"

"…" Chen Ye forcefully broke the curse, not wanting to answer the question, but he was unable to.

"Yes …" king of seventy-two pillars... It was king of seventy-two pillars who injured my spirit root … Then, when I took the Phoenix Blood, I coincidentally happened to be reborn from that phoenix, and the fire that was reborn from my reincarnation burned my original damaged spirit root. "

"Chen Ye! Do you know how important a spirit base is to you?! "

"I-know. But at that time, I thought you were more important. "

I was silent for a while. "I …" Wants to know the whole story. "

"Alright, I'll tell you."

"There's actually a Phoenix Cave on the cliff at the back of the mountain, but … … It's on the mountainside, so very few people noticed it, so I went there. When I went to the Phoenix Cave, there were ghosts disturbing my mind at the cave entrance, and then I went deeper, there really is the king of seventy-two pillars's cave, and then there were seventy-two ghosts. I originally wanted them to step aside and settle this peacefully, 'Seventy-two ghosts, I went there today to save the Ghost King, why can't I go there?" The 72 Demons attacked me without giving me any explanation. I had no choice but to accept the challenge. The 72 Demons' strength weren't very high in the first place. Furthermore, they were secretly releasing their powers, so … I only suffered some superficial wounds, but when the seventy-two ghosts disappeared, the king of seventy-two pillars suddenly appeared behind me. Before I could react, he dug into my back and broke my spirit foundation. I tried my best to defend against his attacks, but now that I've broken my spirit root, how could I be his match? Now that it was used, the king of seventy-two pillars would be caught off guard, and the Holy Equipment would pass through his body. Then, he smiled, "Chen Ye, this Holy Weapon can only hurt us, but it can't kill us. Now that you have lost your spirit foundation due to me, even if you meet the godly phoenix, you will still die. I'll leave first. You play with the Divine Phoenix. Ha ha-ha, he said, and disappeared. I know what he said, but I have to go. Unfortunately, when I arrived, the Divine Phoenix had already started its rebirth, and my divine power was still weak, I wanted to stealthily take the phoenix blood and leave quickly, but when I opened my mouth on the Divine Phoenix's body, it immediately rushed towards me with its Nirvana fire. I couldn't dodge in time and was injured by the phoenix fire. So — tonight … I have to go again. "

phoenix blood

I suddenly raised my head to look at Chen Ye, my eyes filled with tears, "No, Chen Ye, no."

Chen Ye only looked at me and laughed, but his eyes were also covered by a layer of mist. Perhaps, he also knew that if he were to go again, it was possible — that he would never be able to return.

I looked at Chen Ye and could not help but shake my head, "Chen Ye, you can't be like this. You can't take the Phoenix Blood anymore, the price for reviving Chu Yu … It can't, it can't be your life. "

Tears rolled down the corner of Chen Ye's eyes, but he was still smiling, "It's okay, Chu Yu will be revived soon, right? Maybe I can come back safely this time … At the very least... Come back alive. "Hmm?"

I suddenly thought of something and laughed, but could not stop my tears from flowing down, "Chen Ye, Chen Ye." I ran over to his side and patted him, "That's right, Chu Yu will be revived in two days, so we might not necessarily be able to use Phoenix Blood. Although... "Although the Phoenix Blood has a miraculous effect, I …"

"No way!" Before I could finish speaking, Chen Ye loudly cut me off. I gave him a confirmation and looked up at him. His eyes were filled with tears and the pain and unwillingness in them stung my heart. Then, like a child who had done something wrong, he said, "I'm sorry …" I... "I didn't mean to …"

I unconsciously lowered my head and calmed down. "Chen Ye, I know that you're worried about me and that you want to save Chu Yu, but — but this method is too risky, I … I can't afford to lose. I was really afraid that you would never come back, so, really, there are only two days left, and I'll use my blood for those two days. " I saw that Chen Ye wanted to say something, but smiled and continued, "It's only been two days, nothing will happen. I am very clear on my own body. So don't worry, I will take good care of myself, even if it's for Chu Yu's sake, I will not let myself die, do you understand? "

Chen Ye sneered, then held my arm. Suddenly, I felt a strong force pressing on my heart, causing my breathing to become ragged. Chen Ye quickly let go of me, gasping for air, the smell of blood still in his mouth.

"You do know about your own body, but you're willing to sacrifice your life to save Chu Yu, aren't you?" After that, Chen Ye transferred some air into my body, and the feeling of being short of breath slightly improved.

"I just used some harmless attacks and you couldn't take it anymore. So you know how weak your own body is. So if you take the blood from your heart again, you will die very soon. "

I sat on the ground, feeling powerless in my heart. " But... I can't let you die. "

"But I can't just watch as you die!"

"I am willing to die for Chu Yu, I love him! I am qualified to die for him, am I not? "

"I …" Chen Ye was at a loss for words, "Chu Yu is my friend, I am also willing …"

"Chen Ye, tell me the truth, why do you want to go and get the Phoenix Blood? Was it really for Chu Yu? You don't have any selfish thoughts? "

"Yes, I have my own selfish thoughts. I don't want you to take any more risks, so I have to go. Whether it's for Chu Yu or — for you … "

"If you don't go, perhaps I will die. If you go, I will definitely die!" I looked at him with wide eyes.

"You!" Chen Ye's eyes were filled with shock and self-mockery.

"Chen Ye! If you must go today, then I will follow you every inch of the way. Because no one is more qualified than me to die for Chu Yu, and you too! " I'm sorry, Chen Ye. I didn't mean to hurt you, but to let you live … That's all I can do.

Chen Ye laughed, turned and walked out of the house, and then closed the door. Chen Ye's voice came from outside the house, "This formation is beneficial to your body, but at the same time, you cannot leave this room."
