Chapter 382: Chapter 216: Jiang Wan Awakens! (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

Qu Hongling took the elixir and regulated her injuries, her gaze curiously examining the statue.

After so many years, the statue hadn’t gathered much dust and was well-preserved, especially those eyes which were crafted so vividly, they seemed empty yet deep, as if imbued with a magic force.

Qu Hongling was momentarily entranced, staring blankly.

Ran Qingchen searched for a long time but couldn’t find any mechanisms, the battering on the stone door outside had already ceased.

She sat down helplessly beside Qu Hongling and said, "I can’t find it."

Qu Hongling did not respond.

"What are you looking at?"

Noticing the abnormal expression of the girl lost in thought, Ran Qingchen grew curious and followed her gaze towards the serpent-tailed goddess statue, locking eyes with it.

At that moment, Ran Qingchen too felt as if she were deeply attracted by some magic force.

A strange feeling, unlike anything she had ever felt before, began to stealthily spread through her body; she felt as if her soul was being slowly drawn out of her shell, walking on the edge of reality and illusion...countless images flashed by.

There were scenes from her childhood memories, as well as those from when she was older...

When she saw the memories of her and her husband, Jiang Mo, one by one, her heart ached fiercely, and the emotions that pervaded accidentally were as if caught by some invisible barrier. tightly wrapped.

Pain!

Excruciating pain!

Ran Qingchen suddenly came to her senses, her eyes still holding traces of shock and bewilderment.

Fine beads of sweat covered her forehead, the sweat sliding down her tender cheeks, soaking her collar. Every inch of her skin trembled with rapid breathing, as though she had just run out from torrential rain.

Something was wrong with this statue!

She came to her senses, wanting to tell Qu Hongling beside her, but was shocked to see that Qu Hongling had walked up to the statue at some point.

The girl looked up with tears covering her beautiful cheeks.

"Jiang, I’m sorry..."

At that moment, she was back in that small mountain village, on the other side of the small river, where Jiang and Ye stood silently.

However, their faces were no longer gentle, but full of disdain and hatred.

"Hong’er, you knew Anhe Village was going to be massacred, so you ran away in advance, leaving us behind, right?" the man asked viciously.

The girl wept and shook her head vigorously, "No, that’s not it! Hong’er didn’t leave you behind..."

"Brother Jiang, I’ve always told you that this girl was deceiving you. She regained her memory and thought you were unworthy of her, so she left. She is after all the master of a sect; what are you? Right, Hong’er?" said "Ye" with a cold laugh, her face full of scorn.

"No, I didn’t! Jiang, I didn’t look down on you, I wanted to protect you!" The girl cried in agony, endlessly explaining.

However, the man did not listen to her explanation and scolded, "You don’t have me in your heart at all; you are just hoping for me to die! If you truly loved me, why didn’t you come to be with me? Hong’er, you’re so selfish."

The lover’s words pierced the girl’s tender heart, making it hard for her to breathe, "Jiang, I really love you so much, I wanted to avenge you; once I’ve avenged you, I would accompany you..."

"Shut up! Those are just excuses!"

"Ye"’s face was fierce, "You’re just afraid to die! You’re just afraid!"

"Hong’er, I’m so cold down here, I’ve been waiting for you, but why don’t you come; do you know how saddened I am?"

"Hong’er, come down and be with me."

"..."

Their words continuously assaulted the girl’s reason and emotions.

Qu Hongling cried her heart out, feeling as if she had been torn into shreds of paper, smeared with numerous shades of red, like blood.

She knelt on the ground, crying, apologizing, and explaining helplessly.

Suddenly, the two of them stopped cursing and tempting her... silently watching the crying girl.

"Hong’er..."

The man’s fierce expression suddenly softened, "Don’t be sad, Jiang won’t blame you, you should live well from now on. Jiang will not wait for you anymore, forget about me."

As the man and Ye turned and left.

"Jiang!"

Qu Hongling panicked, quickly stood up to chase after them, "Don’t go! Jiang, don’t leave me behind!"

But no matter how desperately she tried to chase them, she could only see their figures getting further and further away—she felt like something in the depths of her heart had been torn away flesh and blood, aching inch by inch.

Suddenly the girl seemed to understand something; she looked down at the Phoenix Slaying Sword in her hand and without hesitation, stabbed it toward her own neck!

...

"Wake up, it’s all fake!" Ran Qingchen shouted loudly at the girl inside the stone chamber.

She firmly pushed against the girl’s shoulders with one hand, preventing her from getting closer to the statue. The other hand was dripping with crimson blood; it was Qu Hongling’s Phoenix Slaying Sword that had pierced through her palm.

In the moment the girl prepared to commit suicide, she intervened just in time.

Qu Hongling looked dazed, tears streaming continuously down her stunning cheeks.

Her hand holding the Phoenix Slaying Sword was still forcefully moving towards her own neck, caught tightly by Ran Qingchen.

Blood kept dripping onto the ground.

"It’s all fake! Wake up!" Ran Qingchen was desperately nervous on the inside.

Realizing that the girl’s strength was inexplicably growing stronger as if some unseen force was bolstering her, and feeling as though there was a sticky force nailing her and Qu Hongling firmly in place,

Ran Qingchen disregarded the pain in her palm, bit her silver teeth, chanted a spell in her mouth, and a vast Yuan Qi surrounded her, forming a dazzling, stunning aura.

Bang!

Her complexion turned "pale," and she pushed forcefully forward.
