Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Even in Death, We’ll Be Tied Together (Sixth Update)_1
"However, I’ve just realized that in your eyes, such a person as I am is something of a sorry spectacle already," the beautiful woman laughed with a haunting beauty, "Well, never mind... But before dying, I want to give you a big gift! Let’s die together and keep each other company on the Netherworld Road!"
"Not good!"
Xian Qianling’s eyes bulged with fury as he immediately embraced you and dove underwater!
At that moment, the beautiful woman had already ruthlessly pressed the switch!
"Boom!!"
A loud blast generated a powerful shockwave as the explosion instantly shattered the base of the cave!
Although the water blocked most of the shockwave for you, both you and Xian Qianling lost consciousness right away.
Not knowing how much time had passed, when you slowly opened your eyes, you found yourself surrounded by pitch black, unable to see anything!
"Am I... in the Underworld?"
"Do you wish to die? That would still require my consent."
You heard Xian Qianling’s voice.
At that moment, your entire body was limp and powerless, and you didn’t even have the energy to move a finger, let alone activate the Sen Luo Eye to view your surroundings.
"Where are we?"
"Still in the same place as before." Xian Qianling sat beside you, gently placing her hand on your forehead, and for the first time spoke in a tender voice, "You have a fever, a bad one."
"I’ve never had a cold or a fever since I was young, but I never expected to get a fever in a place like this."
You cough lightly, and just that cough seemed to drain all the strength from your body, leaving you unable to muster the energy to even move your eyes.
"After the explosion, luckily, we were in the water and avoided one disaster, but everything was sealed off, we are now in a space less than ten square meters."
"We’re lucky there’s still some air."
"Not much left, I can clearly feel it getting stuffier. Besides, the whole cave has collapsed, there’s no way for anyone outside to get in."
"I can’t die here." Although you said that, no matter how you struggled, you remained unable to move a muscle.
"There’s another way, but I need to consult you first."
"What way?"
"When that man in black captured me and brought me here, I paid attention to this pond. This place has no running water, so the pond couldn’t have formed out of nowhere. And since this water is always clear and has no stench, it must be flowing water."
You paused, then said, "You mean, it’s possible there’s a connection to the outside world beneath this pond?"
"Yes, that’s right. While you were unconscious, I went down once, but I came back halfway. My swimming skills are only average; I wasn’t completely sure that I could make it."
With a light sigh, you said, "We have no choice but to try that, go ahead."
"Okay!"
As she spoke, Xian Qianling helped you up.
"Hey, why are you helping me up?"
"What a foolish question, of course, I’m going to carry you over there."
"You’re carrying me? You’re not even sure you can swim across on your own, do you think you can make it with me on your back?"
Xian Qianling suddenly laughed out loud, saying crisp and straightforward, "What can I do, since I like you? I’ve already decided, even if I die, I want to die together with you!"
You were silent, and it wasn’t until a long while later that you spoke, "It’s not worth it."
"Bullshit! If I say it’s worth it, then it’s worth it!" With that, Xian Qianling helped you sit by the edge of the pool, turned her back to you, and then used a rope to tie you and her tightly together.
"Li Muyun, I’m telling you, don’t even dream of getting rid of me in this lifetime! Even if we die, we’ll still be bound together!"
Without another word, Xian Qianling took a deep breath and jumped straight into the pool.
The water was still bone-chillingly cold!
However, your back was exceptionally warm, and it was this warmth that made you feel like your body had somewhat improved.
Inside your body, a toxin had already invaded your entire system. If it weren’t for this poison, your body would have likely begun to heal gradually, and you wouldn’t feel so wretched; however, the poison wouldn’t take your life, but recovery would indeed take a considerable amount of time.
Although there is a certain buoyancy underwater, you are after all a man over one meter eighty with a sturdy build, making it challenging for a girl around one meter seventy like Xian Qianling to carry you on her back and swim slowly in the icy depths. One can only imagine the resistance she had to endure.
At this moment, your back was against Xian Qianling’s, unable to see each other’s faces, but you could imagine that Xian Qianling must be clenching her teeth, her eyes firmly fixed ahead.
At the bottom of the pool, there was indeed an underwater passage, which was not very large but just enough for you to swim through.
But no one knew how long this underwater passage really was, and you could distinctly feel the water beneath becoming even colder.
Xian Qianling’s speed had slowed a bit, but she still swam with all her might.
Meter by meter, inch by inch!
Suddenly, Xian Qianling’s body jerked, her left leg seemed to have cramped!
The two of you sank slowly for two seconds, then you distinctly felt Xian Qianling’s right leg begin to tremble, and she continued to swim by trembling, her hands seemingly pushing away a thousand catties, taking you forward without looking back!
About ten meters further on, your eyes suddenly felt a needle-like pain, and then you opened them in the water.
Excitedly, you found that you could see clearly now, but just then Xian Qianling’s body halted abruptly, and she began sinking again!
Bubbles!
You noticed bubbles constantly escaping from Xian Qianling’s mouth!
This was bad!
She had lost consciousness and was drowning!
At that moment, you didn’t know where the strength came from, but you quickly reached for the rope around Xian Qianling’s waist, grabbed one end, and gave a fierce tug, loosening the bindings around your bodies.
Once the rope loosened, Xian Qianling’s body started to float upwards, while you turned over to sink deeper into the water.
Was this the end?
Watching Xian Qianling float slowly towards the surface, a slight smile formed at the corner of your mouth.
"Crazy woman, although I used to hate you, found you detestable, power-hungry, and somewhat presumptuous, that was also the most frank side of you. Though I’d like to say thank you, it seems there won’t be a chance for that, I’m sorry."
You sighed softly in your heart, then closed your eyes, allowing your body to sink, your consciousness to fade to white, your mind overtaken by the image of Zhao’er.
Zhao’er, Zhao’er...
"Boom!!!"
A thunderous explosion!
A large nightclub in Shinjuku was swept by an incredibly terrifying Qi Force, injuring countless people and turning the scene into utter chaos!
"Zhao’er, if you’re not satisfied, we can go somewhere else, there’s no need to be this angry, right?" The Empress walked in from another room, followed by Dong Fangxiao and Wu Qiuyue.
