Chapter 267: 162: Save Yan Yan! Kiss Nai’er! (Important, must read) _3

Yao Xing fell silent for a moment before saying, "Yes, at the cost of overdrawing one’s life, any injury can be instantly healed, and any virulent poison can be survived without harm. I’ve analyzed it, and this is a kind of evil power that comes from the descendants of demons. The Blood Shura of the Sand Thieves stumbled upon this energy, which is why he became the king of the sand thieves."

Suo Lun said loudly, "I just want to know from you now can we save her, yes or no?"

"This is a deadly poison from Heibing Mansion, and there is no cure outside of it," Yao Xing said. "A certain demon power stored inside me can bring her back, but... it comes at the cost of overdrawing life."

"How much life would it overdraw?" Suo Lun asked.

"I don’t know," Yao Xing said.

Suo Lun fell silent, for he detested this fearsome power as one would a venomous snake, knowing that once it enters the body, it can never be expelled.

If this evil power were used to save Yan Nai’er, then every time she got injured in the future, she would heal instantly, and every time she was poisoned, she would be unharmed. However, a few years later, she would have exhausted all her life and perish like a withered flower.

Could he bear to see Yan Nai’er whither in just a few years? No, he could not.

"Yao Xing, how much longer can she hold on?" Suo Lun asked.

"Perhaps two days," Yao Xing said.

"Alright, then we’ll wait one day. If there’s no turnaround within this day, we’ll use this evil power to save her," Suo Lun said.

"Yes," Yao Xing said.

Furthermore, in two or three hours, Yan Nai’er was going to wake up, and at that time, they could hear her own opinion. After all, it was her life at stake.

So, Suo Lun held on to her, waiting for her to awaken.

"Master, you have another mission, which is to save Elder Yan Yan!" Yao Xing reminded him.

Indeed, the original reason he had left Yan Nai’er’s side was to save Elder Yan Yan. But seeing Yan Nai’er at death’s door, Suo Lun’s heart ached so much that he almost forgot that Elder Yan Yan was still waiting for his rescue.

Yao Xing said, "Alternatively, you could go save Elder Yan Yan first. By the time Miss Yan Nai’er wakes up, her father will have been revived, and she will definitely be overjoyed."

Suo Lun calmed his troubled heart and gently laid Yan Nai’er on the bed. He whispered in her ear, "I’m off to save your father now. Wake up soon."

Then, with reluctance, Suo Lun left the room and pushed open the door.

At that moment, Mr. Tu was outside sharpening his sword. Hearing Suo Lun’s footsteps but not turning his head, he said, "You should be with Nai’er inside. Don’t worry about matters outside."

"Where is Elder Yan Yan?" Suo Lun asked.

Mr. Tu said, "In the crystal coffin."

"And where is the crystal coffin?" Suo Lun continued.

Mr. Tu answered, "It’s in the mourning hall, what’s wrong?"

Suo Lun stepped forward and said softly, "Please Mr. Tu, lead me there. I... can bring Elder Yan Yan back to life."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Tu’s body trembled greatly, his eyes showing disbelief, and he exclaimed in shock, "You’re not talking nonsense out of overwhelming grief, are you? Elder Yan Yan... is dead."

"No, please believe me," Suo Lun said. "A month ago, the reason why I left Nai’er’s side was to find a way to save Elder Yan Yan. After travelling thousands of miles deep into the Barbarian Domain, I finally found it."

"Really?" Mr. Tu suddenly became so excited that he could hardly breathe, fearful that everything before him was just the delirium of a grieving Suo Lun.

Moreover, he gripped Suo Lun’s hand so tightly that it was extremely painful.

"Really, please take me there," Suo Lun said.

Immediately, as if possessed, Mr. Tu grabbed Suo Lun’s hand and dashed towards the mourning hall in Huangquan Ancient City.

Elder Yan Yan was once a pillar of the Silver Wolf, and when this pillar fell, the young Wolf King, Yan Shuang, became the new pillar. Now the pillar of Yan Shuang was about to fall as well.

Mr. Tu had no children nor a wife in his life, he had devoted himself entirely to the Silver Wolf Legion, treating Elder Yan Yan as a brother and Yan Nai’er as a daughter.

If Elder Yan Yan had always been strict with Yan Nai’er, then Mr. Tu had always been affectionate and doting.

Even after hearing that Yan Nai’er and Suo Lun had fallen in love, Tu An was more supportive and happy than anything. He felt that a girl like Yan Nai’er deserved to marry a noble son and lead a life of wealth and peace, not one filled with fighting and killing.

Now, with Suo Lun claiming he could revive Yan Yan, though Tu An completely disbelieved it, he still clung to him as the only lifeline.

...

The spirit hall of Huangquan Ancient City was built entirely of stone, originally a place where the Huang Shui Tribe paid homage to their ancestors and placed memorial tablets.

In everyone’s mind, Yan Yan was already dead, so his crystal coffin was also placed in the spirit hall.

Exactly as it was when Suo Lun left, there lay Yan Yan inside the crystal coffin, eyes tightly shut, with no breath or heartbeat, yet his body remained intact.

"Could Mr. Tu please step outside?" Suo Lun said, "I need to use a secret method to save Elder Yan Yan, and no one is allowed to witness it."

"Of course, of course..." Tu An immediately retreated, his steps nearly staggering.

After Tu An had left and the door was firmly closed, only Suo Lun and Yan Yan remained in the great hall.

"Yao Xing, just by taking out this Dragonflame Crystal, it will suffice?" Suo Lun asked.

"Yes," Yao Xing replied. "Now, Yan Yan’s body is possessed by a powerful undead spirit. This spirit is extremely greedy for the energy of the Dragon Mark; it will go insane trying to seize it once it feels the energy from the Dragonflame Ruins. However, the energy of the Dragonflame Crystal is the natural enemy of all undead creatures. It can only enter and not leave, so once the undead spirit leaves the body, Yan Yan can come back to life."

Suo Lun took a box out from his chest and gently opened it.

Instantly, a golden light was released from within.

Even though most of the energy from the Dragonflame Ruins had been exhausted, there was still a divine glow.

"Ao, ao..." Immediately, Suo Lun heard a series of ghostly howls.

Then, Yan Yan’s body began to shake violently.

"Master, place the Dragonflame on the altar, then back away," Yao Xing said. "This undead spirit is incredibly powerful; if it touches you by even a fraction, the consequences are unimaginable."

Suo Lun opened the box, placed it on the altar next to the crystal coffin, and then quickly backed away several meters.

The light from the Dragonflame Crystal inside the box grew increasingly intense, lighting up the entire spirit hall like a true flame.

"Ao, ao, ao..."

Yan Yan’s body trembled more and more fiercely, and the screams of the undead became louder and louder.

"Bang..." Suddenly, the entire crystal coffin shattered violently.

Then, a terrifying ghostly figure burst forth from Yan Yan’s body, screaming madly as it charged at the Dragonflame Crystal.

This undead spirit was immensely powerful; the moment it appeared, the temperature in the spirit hall dropped by several tens of degrees.

"Mine, mine, all the energy is mine..." The powerful spirit screamed in an incomprehensible language, like a moth to a flame, dashing towards the Dragonflame.

The radiant light of the Dragonflame was the natural enemy of all undead, and as it approached, its ghostly form started to disintegrate little by little.

But then, something even more horrifying happened!

The entire spirit hall suddenly echoed with countless ghostly wails and howls as spirits emerged one after another from the memorial tablets and from underneath the ground.

Dozens, hundreds of them, crazily dashed towards the Dragonflame Crystal.

Real moths to a flame, the terrifying light of the Dragonflame disintegrated the spirits one by one; they dissipated completely without a trace after entering the essence of the Dragonflame.

And at that moment!

Yan Yan’s body suddenly shuddered, and then... he abruptly opened his eyes!

His gaze was electric, like that of the Wolf King!
