‘If not, they would not be destroyed by those people…’
Chiyou smirked. Perhaps, she was the exception. She would make the people who had hurt her suffer more than they could imagine.
Unfortunately, she would never get another chance to do so…
“Little girl, what happened to you?”
In the void, a voice came, and Chiyou, who was still in grief, hurriedly raised her head and looked at the woman standing in the air.
It was such a stunningly beautiful face.
Feng Ruqing, who was standing not far away from the battle, was stunned, and her eyes fell on that familiar face when she appeared.
‘That face… She looks like me.
‘The Ninth Emperor?
‘Why do I dream of her?’
“But you were not only poisoned this time…” The Ninth Emperor landed next to the young girl, sighing. “I can cure the poison, but there’s nothing I can do about the fact that you’ve given up your chance of survival to boost your strength.”
Chiyou lowered her head and smiled faintly.
It was her choice.
She had risked her life for the sake of revenge.
However, she did not expect to see the Ninth Emperor one more time before she died…
Chiyou put her finger into her mouth and bit it. She then took the Ninth Emperor’s hand and slowly drew a talisman on her palm.
“I have no father and no mother. Heaven is my mother, and the earth is my father. The clan is all of my hope. When Tian Ling Clan fell, all my hopes were dashed, but you… You broke the seal for me and gave me hope again.”
She said that she was the exception of the Tian Ling Clan.
Because… She was born without parents. That was why Tian Ling Clan wanted to wait for her to grow up and make her the Tian Ling Clan head.
“Ninth Emperor… This is my Tian Ling Clan’s mark. If… I mean… If I have an afterlife, I will come to you… You have to wait for me… You have to wait for me!”
The Ninth Emperor held her palm lightly.
“I will, Chiyou. I will wait for you…”
The young girl smiled with great satisfaction. Blood flowed out of her mouth, and her pair of bloodshot eyes gradually regained their previous clarity.
It was like the first time she saw Chiyou.
She was the same little girl with clear eyes and a determined face.
Until her death, the little girl’s eyes fixed on the Ninth Emperor, as if to say, “You must wait for me…”
***
She did not understand the meaning of this dream…
Her eyes were still fixed upon the Ninth Emperor.
The Ninth Emperor was dressed in white, and her back was turned to Feng Ruqing, so Feng Ruqing could not see her expression clearly.
However… Feng Ruqing felt that the woman in front of her was somewhat lonely and sad at this moment.
She probably would not be able to express it. That was why she did not show her reluctance to that young girl.
However, Feng Ruqing did not know how deep the friendship between the Ninth Emperor and Chiyou was back then. Since she was willing to come to her, their relationship must have been quite deep.
Unfortunately…
She was late.
So, she blamed herself…
Feng Ruqing wanted to go forward, even though the Ninth Emperor was from her past; at this moment, she wanted to comfort her.
She had just taken a few steps when she suddenly felt dizzy, and the sound of a cry reached her ears.
“Mother… Wake up… If you don’t wake up, my sister will suffocate and die…”
