Chapter 1554: Chapter 1186: Blue Skies and Yellow Springs, I Am by Your Side!

On the road to Yellow Springs, I will accompany you...

That resolute figure, when struck by the Ninth Heavenly Punishment Thunderbolt, was so determined...

In this moment, everyone present was struck with awe...

Under the Heavenly Punishment Thunder, those who encounter it will surely die!

He, Crown Prince Mu of Great Zhou...

Shi Wujue watched Zhou Mu’s resolute figure stepping forward, and staggered a step, shocked...

Zhou Mu!

For her, you would even...

The Ninth Heavenly Thunder roared, with boundless might, engulfing that red figure standing in the center of the arena, a constant shudder...

A worldly emperor at the end of his road...

Carrying with it, another worldly prodigy’s... life and death companionship...

Is this foolishness?

Or ignorance?

No one present could answer...

They only knew that the red silhouette struggling in the blaze was hauntingly beautiful...

That tall figure walking towards her with calmness, like a Divine Residence...

The light and fire of the thunder swept the two into its embrace in the blink of an eye...

The mighty force of heavens and earth whipped Zhou Mu’s clothing, flapping loudly...

"Splat!"

A mouthful of fresh blood, unexpectedly sprayed from Zhou Mu’s mouth...

Passing over the spirit bodies drawn from Gu Changsheng, falling to the ground, disappearing in an instant...

This was not a heavenly punishment meant for Zhou Mu!

His entry, undoubtedly, would be met with a backlash from the heavens...

"Changsheng..." A slender hand slowly reached out...

Beneath the light and fire of thunder, Zhou Mu struggled forward, the face like a Divine Residence gradually losing its color, turning ghostly pale...

Yet the corners of his mouth curved slightly, carrying a hint of a relieved smile...

As if being able to vanish with Gu Changsheng under this Heavenly Punishment Thunder was a kind of bliss...

Gu Changsheng, arms wide open, still maintained that posture...

Like a shell devoid of a Divine Soul...

Her soul, forcibly extracted, had already lost all sensation...

The whole person, drifting like being in a vast ocean, rising and falling, swaying and fluttering...

"Changsheng..."

Another step forward, blood slowly dripped from Zhou Mu’s mouth, staining his purple robes a deep royal purple...

But Zhou Mu acted as if nothing had happened at all, the corners of his mouth still held that relieved smile...

"I once promised you, through seas of swords and fires, Karmic Fire and Purgatory, I would accompany you, life and death together..." With rosy lips stained with blood and a smile, the staggering Zhou Mu, his face like a Divine Residence ghostly pale, but his unwavering hand reaching out, reached persistently towards Gu Changsheng’s outstretched hand amid boundless pressure from the heavens...

To the skies above and the Yellow Springs below, even in death, I wish...

To have our fingers intertwined...

The Nine Heavenly Punishment Thunderbolts, no one in the world has ever drawn down the Nine Heavenly Punishment Thunderbolts, let alone survived under their onslaught...

Nine deaths and one life, nine deaths without life!

What awaits Gu Changsheng is only a road to death...

The path to life has dwindled to something negligible...

The several spirit bodies standing around Gu Changsheng swayed, struggled, dissipated...

The cries of the Vermilion Bird Gu and the Green Dragon Gu echoed endlessly...

The light and fire of the thunder made the two figures glow brilliantly like fire...

Closer!

They were getting closer!

"Splat!"

Another mouthful of blood expelled, under the pressure of thunder, Zhou Mu’s figure stumbled...

But his eyes, deep as a dark pool, looked steadily at that rigid figure, and his slender hand reached out once again...

Changsheng, my love...

All I desire...

Is merely to have our fingers intertwined, life and death together...

Not even heaven and earth should stand in my way!

The warmth from her fingertips made the blood-stained corner of Zhou Mu’s mouth curve again, forming a comforting arc...

At the moment their fingers intertwined, Zhou Mu slowly stretched out his arm...

With a scoop of his long arms, he wrapped that rigid figure into his embrace...

Lowering his head, blood continuously fell from his lips, staining the clothes of the person in his embrace...

Zhou Mu looked at the woman in his arms, her eyes opening hollowly, like a masterless puppet, her lips slightly parted...

"Changsheng, I, will accompany you to the Yellow Springs..."

Blood spread from the corners of Zhou Mu’s mouth, dripping onto Gu Changsheng’s body...

Gu Changsheng, amid the Heavenly Punishment Thunder, yet somehow, though her soul was in tatters, her body was at least unharmed...

But Zhou Mu...

At the moment he touched Gu Changsheng, it seemed as if every pore in his body was bleeding...

A crimson sight...

Scorching blood oozed from Zhou Mu’s body, falling...

Yet he held the woman in his arms with unwavering determination...

Fingers interlocked, untrembling and unmoved...

Under the light and fire of thunder, the two clinging together presented a picture of tragic beauty...

A phrase suddenly flashed through everyone’s mind...

What is love in this world, that makes life and death promises...

Is this what it means to vow life and death in love?

That caused such unparalleled talents to leap unflinchingly into the Yellow Springs?

When did death become something so unfrightening?

His Highness the Crown Prince Mu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, do you not covet the endless power, wealth, and glory of this world, do you not long for the bustling mortal life? Do you know that the moment you take this step, you cut off your own chance of survival?

Is it worth giving up everything you have, including your life, for a woman?

Is it just because this woman is Southern Emperor Changsheng?

Perhaps, in his eyes, the Southern Emperor is everything...

Life and death to him are insignificant compared to the companionship of the two...

Blood!

Drip by drip, it trickles from Zhou Mu’s lips...

Falling onto Gu Changsheng...

Staining her clothes red...

Falling onto Gu Changsheng’s cheeks...

Staining her porcelain-like skin red...

Warmth...

The warmth brought by the blood...

Burning the wandering Gu Changsheng...

She seemed to feel, deep within her soul, the cry of unwillingness...

"Evildoer!"

Dry lips, a lost and disoriented mumble...

Gu Changsheng, she doesn’t even know if she has made any sound...

But she knows very clearly, in such a situation, the only one who can accompany her, who is willing to accompany her, who brings her the last trace of warmth, is none other than her evildoer...

Is it him?

Has he come to her side?

"Changsheng..." Zhou Mu heard the faint call from his embrace, a smile immediately emerged on his god-like face...

With that murmur, more blood spurted from his mouth, splashing all over Gu Changsheng’s face...

Zhou Mu froze for a moment upon seeing this...

A trace of heartache flashed in his deep eyes, his long hand under the purple sleeve lifting with force...

"You, who love beauty the most, are certainly unhappy being so disheveled. I will wipe it clean for you..."

Is it the bloodstain?

With a detached soul, Gu Changsheng drifted in the void, vaguely speculating...

Zhou Mu, you big fool!

How can you take promises between lovers seriously? You actually took it seriously!

When love is deep, you made me a promise of life and death, I listened, you talked...

Who...

Who let you really follow me to the Yellow Springs?

You fool!

Big fool!

With a shattered soul, difficult to attach to the body, Gu Changsheng screamed hysterically from deep within her soul!

You fool! Go! Go! Don’t mind me!

If dying under this Heavenly Punishment Thunder is my ultimate destiny, then I, Gu Changsheng, accept it!

After all, this life has already been exchanged by my parents with everything they had, unable to awaken my mother, this life is ultimately wasted, if I die, so be it! I’ve already gained these two or three years in this space for nothing, at least I’ve mixed into the mortals’ knowledge, left a name in history, this way, I’m not at a loss!

But, Zhou Mu, you fool, my death, I never intended to take you along!

What madness has seized you? What foolishness have you committed?

Isn’t it good to live well?

Why do you want to follow me to the Yellow Springs?

The path to the Yellow Springs is lonely, who can promise us a next life?

Fool!

You big fool!

Why make me feel reluctant even in death?

"I will clean it for you..."

Stubbornly looking at the woman in his arms...

Determined to wipe away the bloodstain on her face...

Zhou Mu was just like this...

In front of everyone, under their stunned gaze, his actions were gentle and deeply affectionate...

The world truly has devoted lovers...

Today, this is finally seen...

For some reason, those people crouching on the ground, hiding from the oppression of the thunder, suddenly felt a sorrowful urge to cry...

The world often says, husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, when adversity strikes each flies their own way...

Yet at this moment, there was one, although not yet a couple, choosing in adversity, to hold hands tightly, live and die together...

"In this life, having one person, such companionship, even in death, can bring peace..."

I don’t know who mumbled this sentence...

Causing countless people to nod one after another!

Yes!

In this life, having such a person, such companionship, even in death, that would be peaceful!

Even the sweetest promises cannot compare to His Highness the Crown Prince Mu’s step under the thunderous fire and light!

It was so tragically beautiful, and passionately resolute...

Southern Emperor, how both unfortunate, yet fortunate!

Nine Heavenly Punishment Thunderbolts, sweeping away two peerless talents, this day, destined for worldwide mourning!

Nine Heavenly Punishment Thunderbolts!

Only this number of Ninety-Nine to One in Great Perfection can take these two away, can it not?

The supreme emperor, Southern Emperor Changsheng, Crown Prince Mu of Great Zhou, are worthy of this number of ninety-nine!

The wrath of heaven, the oppression of thunder, the demise of talents, the fall of emperors, shared sorrow among all...

Under the ferocious and rampant light of the thunder, Gu Changsheng’s stripped divine soul became increasingly frail and ethereal, almost to the point of vanishing, yet Zhou Mu, embracing her, insisted on wiping the bloodstains clean from her face, only his efforts were counterproductive, as more and more blood overflowed from his lips, his actions slowed...

"Who? Who on earth? Dared to flood my nest?"
