Was it you that night?-Chapter 83 - 81 Qinghe is Dead

Chapter 83 -81: Qinghe is Dead…

Yan Changsheng knew he was dragging Shen Qinghe down, so he shouted at her, “Qinghe, don’t mind me, kill him!”

Shen Qinghe pursed her lips tightly, staying silent.

Even though she struggled, she had no intention of giving up on Yan Changsheng. If he died, she wouldn’t be able to survive in the Mythical Beast World either. Since that was the case, there was nothing to discuss; the only option was to fight!

However, the alien-shaped person was different from other mythical beasts. Not only was his cultivation base profound, but he was also very cunning. Knowing that she cared about Yan Changsheng, he used him to tie her hands, leaving her exhausted in coping with the attacks.

It was fortunate that Yan Changsheng was by her side, keeping her spiritual energy abundant, but as time went on, her sword strikes still began to slow down.

It was a good thing that the alien-shaped person had only shown up now. Otherwise, with Shen Qinghe’s swordsmanship and cultivation base when she first entered The Abyss, she definitely wouldn’t have been a match for him.

Lately, Shen Qinghe had accumulated a lot of practical experience fighting against mythical beasts, which brought her swordsmanship to a level of fiery purity. She also took advantage of this opportunity to seamlessly integrate her sword techniques with Wood Element Techniques, creating some entirely new moves.

Initially, the alien-shaped person didn’t take Shen Qinghe seriously, but her robust combat strength and indomitable will made him dare not underestimate her any longer.

He felt that if the battle dragged on, he might not necessarily win. When he saw Yan Changsheng expose a weakness, he made a decisive move and aimed a sword strike at Yan Changsheng’s neck.

The alien-shaped person’s swordsmanship was very fast. If Yan Changsheng’s cultivation base hadn’t vanished, he naturally could have dodged this beheading strike, but now he was just an ordinary mortal, utterly incapable of escaping this fatal sword.

Shen Qinghe was also caught off guard. At the critical moment, she threw her Red Lotus Shield Armor, blocking the alien-shaped person’s deadly strike.

At the same time, she exposed a vital spot in her defense, and the alien-shaped person took advantage of this opportunity to thrust his sword into Shen Qinghe’s heart.

In the moment the alien-shaped person thought he had the upper hand, Shen Qinghe suddenly executed the Flower Parting Willow Brushing technique. Her swordsmanship was no longer what it used to be; her strike split into multiple sharp Sword Qi, targeting the alien-shaped person’s entire body.

There was no escape for the alien-shaped person; his body was perforated by the tyrannical Sword Qi, turned into a beehive.

As he lay dying, he couldn’t believe he had lost to Shen Qinghe. He hadn’t even seen how she made her move before his body was sliced into pieces by numerous Sword Qi.

This was the first time Shen Qinghe used this deadly move in the Mythical Beast World, reserved for a moment where her life was at stake.

She hadn’t expected that this move would be so powerful, easily slaying the alien-shaped person.

After eliminating her opponent, she collapsed from exhaustion. Yan Changsheng frantically supported her, his thoughts in disarray, “Qinghe, you shouldn’t have saved me…”

He had been so awful to her, so why would she risk her life to save him?

Shen Qinghe’s whole body was in pain; she felt like she was at her limit.

The sword of the alien-shaped person must have been made of something special; the pierced area around her heart felt as if it had been shredded, leaving her unable to breathe.

“That strike just now, let it be… be the repayment for the life-saving grace you gave me when we jumped down together,” Shen Qinghe gasped lightly, feeling as if her soul had lightened.

She seemed to hear Dongfang Wuya’s voice calling for her again, one after another, so heart-wrenching that it made her heart ache…

At that moment, the body of the alien-shaped person transformed into specks of starlight, vanishing into smoke and mist in an instant.

The space in the Mythical Beast World twisted and warped rapidly with the disappearance of the alien-shaped person. By the time Yan Changsheng came to his senses, he and Shen Qinghe were already in the midst of lush, dense mountains and forests.

“Qinghe, we’ve left the Mythical Beast World…” Yan Changsheng lowered his head and only then realized that Shen Qinghe was soaked in blood.

His heart shattered, his fingers trembling as he reached for the girl’s breath, where not a single sign of life could be felt.

He refused to accept it and checked her pulse again, only to find that her pulse had ceased to beat as well.

“No, this can’t be happening, Qinghe, wake up, Qinghe…” Yan Changsheng frantically rummaged through Qinghe’s Qiankun Bag and found a top-grade Spirit Pill for healing wounds, which he stuffed into her mouth.

Shen Qinghe still made no sound, lying quietly in his embrace with a peaceful expression, looking as though she was asleep.

Xiao Chen was patiently searching for the whereabouts of The Abyss when he suddenly heard Yan Changsheng’s cries for Qinghe; he quickly rushed to the source of the sound, only to witness Yan Changsheng holding Shen Qinghe, weeping uncontrollably.

“What happened to Qinghe?” Xiao Chen’s voice trembled.

Yan Changsheng held Shen Qinghe tight, agonized: “It’s my fault, if it weren’t for me holding her back, she wouldn’t be dead…”

“What nonsense are you spouting? How could Qinghe possibly be dead?” Xiao Chen interrupted Yan Changsheng.

He rushed forward to check on Shen Qinghe, but Yan Changsheng held her tightly, not allowing him the chance to touch her.

“Changsheng, let her go first!” Xiao Chen yelled urgently at Yan Changsheng.

Yan Changsheng, as if he hadn’t heard, continued to hold Shen Qinghe tightly, murmuring to himself, “She got hurt trying to save me; I was so cruel to her, why would she save me?”

Seeing Yan Changsheng as if possessed, Xiao Chen decided to take action, trying to wrest Shen Qinghe from Yan Changsheng’s arms.

But Yan Changsheng was like a madman, as soon as Xiao Chen touched Shen Qinghe, Yan Changsheng attacked him.

Yan Changsheng, currently at the Soul Division Stage, had a higher cultivation base than Xiao Chen and was naturally not a match for Yan Changsheng.

After exchanging a few moves, it was Xiao Chen who showed weakness first, “Let her go, let me check on her, she might not really be dead. If we are still in the Illusory Realm, it might be a false death…”

Yan Changsheng, dubious, finally let go of Shen Qinghe.

Xiao Chen approached and checked Shen Qinghe’s breath, only to find indeed there was no breath; her pulse was gone, a sure sign of death.

But Shen Qinghe’s body had not grown cold, which made him think of a possibility, “Could it be that Qinghe is just in a state of Soul Departure?”

Yan Changsheng shook his head, dismissing Xiao Chen’s suggestion, “Even in Soul Departure, there would still be a pulse. She has lost so much blood, and even feeding her top-grade elixirs for healing did not stop the bleeding…”

As he spoke, his nose began to sting.

Why would Qinghe save someone like him? He wasn’t worth Qinghe’s trouble. If he hadn’t brought Nan Sheng back to the Sky Pole Sect, how would Qinghe have been pushed into the Illusory Realm of the Mythical Beast World by Nan Sheng?

“Did Shengsheng do something to Qinghe that caused you both to fall into The Abyss?” Xiao Chen suddenly recalled this matter.

Yan Changsheng nodded, “She wanted to kill Qinghe, and I tried to pull Qinghe back up, but ended up dragging her down with me. If it wasn’t for me, Qinghe would be fine. It’s all my fault, all my fault…”

Xiao Chen looked at the lifeless Shen Qinghe, and his heart suddenly empted as well.

He had always thought that being around her could easily affect his emotions and make him lose control, so he had intentionally kept his distance from her.

Now, if she were truly dead, he would never be able to see her again.

He forced himself to rally, “Didn’t Qinghe take the Snow Bone Grass? If she ingested the Snow Bone Grass, there might still be hope for her. We shouldn’t lose our composure. Besides, if Mr. Wuya is here, he will definitely have a way to save her.”
