Chapter 553: Chapter 553 Extra: Living Just for You (2)_1

For the past two years, he had watched Zi Xiao walk mechanically; many times, he wanted to go up to him and call him back, but was stopped in his tracks by the Death Qi emanating from his entire being. He even felt that if he didn’t let Zi Xiao continue his march, Zi Xiao might never walk again.

Finally, with a ’plop’, Zi Xiao collapsed in the snow. Ci Hun saw Zi Xiao fall and quickly flew over, lifting him up and brushing off the snowflakes that clung to his pale face. Looking at his white hair and tightly furrowed brows, he sighed, holding him as he flew towards the Royal Palace.

Qie Yue and the others were inside the palace, watching the heavy snow that had fallen for two years straight and couldn’t help but sigh. If it weren’t for their protection with Spiritual Power, the palace would have likely turned into a snow-buried Royal Palace by now.

Since Dugu Qianye had left, it was tough on them all. They all understood Zi Xiao’s mood, but they didn’t expect his sorrow to cause a heavy snow to fall across the entire Nine Heavens Xuanyue Realm for two years!

"Ah—" Little Douzi sighed deeply.

"Stop sighing, your sighs are making me irritable," Qie Yue said, glaring at Little Douzi.

"Ah—" Little Douzi continued to sigh and said anxiously, "Our Mistress has been gone for two years now—the single pillar of the world has turned into ten, stabilizing the world. Even the ten realms that Yong Xing used to feed Huagui have regained their vitality. But it has left our Lord to live in solitude. Thinking of how much our Lord loved the Mistress, how can he accept this reality? I’ve heard that our Mistress created the Nine Heavens Xuanyue Realm with her past life and the flesh and blood of our Lord. Since its formation, the skies were always clear. Now, with two years of heavy snow, it shows how distressed our Lord is! Just thinking about it makes me want to cry."

As Little Douzi spoke, true tears began to fall.

Zi Xiao had instructed them all to stay behind while he went alone to the Ice Snow World so that she could leave peacefully. Not letting them see her departure with their own eyes would spare them some pain.

Witnessing her departure was a cruel fate for him, but he couldn’t not see her off, even if it meant standing quietly in the distance.

Qie Yue felt like crying upon hearing Little Douzi’s words. He and Dugu Qianye had known each other on the Xuanyue Continent, and their relationship had always been good. Now that she was gone, he felt the pain too. Seeing the weather outside, he knew Zi Xiao’s mood; even in his own heartache, he felt sorrow for Zi Xiao. Seeing Little Douzi’s tears, he glared at him and said, "Be a man, what’s there to cry about! Dry your eyes!"

Little Douzi glared back at Qie Yue, his voice tinged with tears, "You have tears in your own eyes!"

Qie Yue awkwardly turned his head to the side, just in time to see Ci Hun carrying Zi Xiao into the courtyard.

"They’re back," Qie Yue informed the room, then darted out. The others followed suit.

"What happened to him?" Qie Yue asked upon seeing Zi Xiao unconscious.

"He has been walking in the snow without sleep or rest for two years, without using his Spiritual Power," Ci Hun said after carrying Zi Xiao to his chamber and placing him on the bed where Dugu Qianye had once recuperated.

"What?!" The followers who came along were stunned by Ci Hun’s words, unable to believe that Zi Xiao would do this to himself, feeling deeply sympathetic.

Zi Xiao had been lying there for fifty years. During these fifty years, the snow in the Nine Heavens Xuanyue never stopped. The residents here hadn’t practiced their cultivation for fifty years, focusing solely on praying for Zi Xiao or dealing with the accumulating snow across the realm.

Little Douzi came every day to wipe Zi Xiao’s face. Seeing his eyes that hadn’t opened for fifty years, she heaved a deep sigh.

Over these fifty years, Qie Yue and the others would visit Zi Xiao every two or three days, talking to him, hoping he would wake up soon, but to no avail.

Little Douzi wrung out the towel to wipe Zi Xiao’s face when she heard a noise behind her. She turned around to see Qie Yue and Hei Zi arriving with Jiang Yu and Jiang Yu, and she quietly stepped aside.

Jiang Yu came to Zi Xiao’s side, held his hand to check on him, and said, "His power is too great, I can’t transport you to his world. I can only make sure your voice gets through. Whether he listens or is willing to wake up, I can’t guarantee."

"Let’s try," Qie Yue said.

Jiang Yu nodded and merged with Jiang Yu, as the figure of Phantom Stone with black hair and a red robe appeared before everyone. He approached Zi Xiao’s bedside, formed hand seals, and milky Spiritual Mist began to accumulate over Zi Xiao’s head.

Hei Zi came to sit by Zi Xiao’s bed, took the towel from Little Douzi to wipe his face, changed the water to wipe his hands, and muttered to himself, "Xiao, we’ve known each other for tens of thousands of years, right? I have never seen you like this before. Seeing you lying on the bed lifeless, with your eyes tightly shut, sometimes I really want to pick you up and give you a good beating. Dugu Qianye is gone, you’ve shut yourself off from the world, do you think you can escape reality like that? I know you’re suffering and hurting inside, but you’ve been asleep for fifty years, it’s time to wake up. Do you know what it’s like outside while you’re lying here? Fifty-two years of snow, not a single clear day, all the ground covered by snow. If everyone didn’t practice cultivation, by the time you wake up there might only be millions of skeletons left. These years, everyone has had no time for cultivation, all fighting the snow disaster. They are your subjects, can you really bear to continue this way?"

Hei Zi went on talking without a response from Zi Xiao. He glanced at Phantom Stone, saw that he could hold on a little longer, and continued, "Xiao, if Dugu Qianye saw you like this, would she feel heartbroken? She once said that the luckiest and happiest thing about coming here was meeting you. Although she’s gone, she has merged with the pillar of the world, holding up this world. I’ve always believed she’s not dead, that she’s watching over us, watching you, the air surrounding you is her embrace, her aching for you. Have you ever thought about how much she must suffer and feel reluctant, being dissolved in the air? If she really left, would you want to disturb even her peace?"

A tear slowly slid from the corner of Zi Xiao’s eye. Hei Zi saw the tear, his voice turned choked, he took a deep breath and said, "Qie Yue’s Wushuang wishes to marry, and they’ve prepared everything, just waiting for you to wake up and preside over the wedding because Qie Yue said we three are brothers, and it’s not right without any of us. But now you’re lying here, what are they supposed to do? Dugu Qianye used to say that she would definitely come when I and Qie Yue got married, now she can’t, don’t you want to help her keep her promise?"

"Puff—"

Phantom Stone spat out a mouthful of blood, a flash of white light, forced to separate. The Spiritual Mist accumulating above Zi Xiao’s head slowly dissipated.

"Sorry, we..." Jiang Yu began to speak, interrupted by Hei Zi.

"You’ve done your best, go back and rest," Hei Zi said.

Qie Yue stepped forward, passed the Phantom Stone, and Jiang Yu and Jiang Yu re-entered the Phantom Stone together.
