Chapter 2636: Chapter 2656: Lin Chen, I’m going to kill you!

Qiu Wushuang took a deep breath, and her panic-stricken heart surprisingly calmed down.

Either she watched Senior Sister die, proving she had nothing to do with this matter, proving she wouldn’t oppose the Myriad Immortal Hall, proving she was willing to live on as a dog, and she could survive, or she would abandon her entire cultivation to save her Senior Sister, and the two of them would live as mortals together.

Qiu Wushuang asked calmly, "What is the current state of my Senior Sister, will she die?"

Lin Chen replied, "She’s seriously injured, the bad news is her strength definitely can’t be recovered, and in the future she’ll mostly have to lie down, but the good news is she won’t die, she should be able to live a long time."

Qiu Wushuang let out a sigh of relief, this result was entirely within her expectations, after all, her Senior Sister was a Quasi-Saint, if there was still a chance for her to recover her combat power, how could the Hall Master possibly let her go?

It’s good that she’s alive!

Qiu Wushuang answered without hesitation, "As long as you spare my Senior Sister’s life, I am willing to ruin my own cultivation."

Lin Chen was slightly shocked, then his heart relaxed.

This test was not instigated by Zhen Liuxue, but was Lin Chen’s own doing.

Having followed Zhen Liuxue for three years, he had heard some things, and knew that Zhen Liuxue did not harbor hatred for Qiu Wushuang because Qiu Wushuang had been kept in the dark from start to finish, and everything she did was in compliance with her mother’s last wish.

Only, while it was one thing to understand and accept rationally, emotionally, there were still some expectations, hopes that Qiu Wushuang would do something.

These thoughts hidden in his heart were noticed by Lin Chen, so he took it upon himself to pretend to be an envoy from the Myriad Immortal Hall, approaching Qiu Wushuang to make her make a choice.

Either she would sever ties with Zhen Liuxue and watch her die, living on subserviently, or she would ruin her own cultivation and exchange it for a way out for Zhen Liuxue.

If Qiu Wushuang regarded her own cultivation as more important than Zhen Liuxue’s life, then there was no need for them to meet again, let them forget each other for good.

If Qiu Wushuang was willing to give up her cultivation to save Zhen Liuxue’s life, it might be the best consolation for the huge price Zhen Liuxue had paid.

Zhen Liuxue might not truly need Qiu Wushuang to sacrifice anything or do something, perhaps all she hoped for deep down was an attitude.

Whether Zhen Liuxue could recover and continue her vengeance was uncertain, and what the future held was also uncertain, but it was certain that after leaving with Lin Chen, Zhen Liuxue would likely never get the chance to see Qiu Wushuang again.

Given Zhen Liuxue’s nature, there were some words she would never speak, so Lin Chen chose to help her proactively, and for this last meeting, he hoped Zhen Liuxue could leave without regrets.

Lin Chen stared into Qiu Wushuang’s eyes and said coldly, "To forsake your cultivation and become a mortal, can you bear it?"

Qiu Wushuang replied calmly, "Please tell the Hall Master, I already know the true cause of my mother’s death. I hate my own incompetence and weakness, unable to confront him as directly as my Senior Sister to seek vengeance for my mother."

"Senior Sister risked everything, courageously taking action, even nearly losing her life. I don’t have the courage to oppose the Myriad Immortal Hall, to oppose the Hall Master, but I am willing to abandon this cultivation to exchange for my Senior Sister’s life, and to peacefully spend what remains of our lives together."

Lin Chen pressed, "No regrets?"

Qiu Wushuang replied calmly, "Knowing the truth, I’ve been living in pain and agony. If abandoning this strength can save the world, then at least it proves I have some use. Maybe afterwards, my heart can be calm, no longer enduring torment."

Lin Chen finally eased completely, but his gaze remained as piercing as ice, "Indeed, sisterly love runs deep!"

Qiu Wushuang gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and spiritual power gathered at her fingertips, ready to ruin her cultivation. Lin Chen spoke up to stop her, "Wait!"

Qiu Wushuang suddenly looked up, "What, having second thoughts?"

Lin Chen said calmly, "No need to hurry, let’s have you see her first, follow me!"

Qiu Wushuang looked at Lin Chen, puzzled, unable to fathom what he was up to. Lin Chen chuckled inwardly, paying her no regard as he turned and walked away.

Lin Chen led Qiu Wushuang for a hundred li, then hovered above a valley, pointing below.

"She’s down there, go and see her."

Qiu Wushuang glanced at Lin Chen, her eyes filled with confusion, but she ultimately didn’t ask any more questions and descended into the valley.

Watching Qiu Wushuang’s retreating figure, Lin Chen’s eyes revealed a smile of a scheme come to fruition.

Heh, after knowing the truth, Qiu Wushuang must hate herself to death, right?

She already could hardly wait to kill him before, and now that he had played this trick on her, she must be going crazy.

It seems his true body cannot meet her, lest she goes mad and berserk. As for his avatar, let her kill it if she wants.

Qiu Wushuang descended into the valley, and with a sweep of her divine sense, she found Zhen Liuxue sitting on a patch of grass, leaning against a boulder.

Zhen Liuxue’s face appeared venerable, her complexion pale, looking even more aged than when they last met.

Qiu Wushuang’s eyes immediately reddened.

Zhen Liuxue, seeing Qiu Wushuang, showed a relieved smile on her face, "I may be setting out on a long journey soon, and I don’t know if I’ll see you again in this lifetime. Before parting, I wanted to see you one last time, hoping it wouldn’t cause you any trouble."

Qiu Wushuang was startled, her face filled with confusion.

A long journey?

A final meeting before departure?

"Senior Sister, weren’t you captured by the Myriad Immortal Hall?"

Zhen Liuxue was also taken aback for a moment, "I indeed almost got killed by Sidao Wang, but the Saint of Thieves intervened and rescued me."

Qiu Wushuang’s eyes widened, "Then the person who came to find me just now..."

Zhen Liuxue laughed, "Lin Chen, you’ve met him before, haven’t you? I asked him to keep a low profile and remain concealed, so no one would recognize his identity. Didn’t you realize it was him?"

Lin Chen!!!

Seeing the smile on Zhen Liuxue’s face, Qiu Wushuang instantly understood everything.

With Senior Sister’s character, she would never conduct such a test!

It was that kid again!

"Lin Chen, I’m going to kill you!"
