In just the blink of an eye, three out of four pillars of my workshop had died .
Angry, I pointed the Ghost Ice Soul and Suren and hit his back with an Ice Ray!
Pu!
The attack pierced his flesh and caused his back to freeze over . At the same time, I executed Slayer Slash and hit him again on the shoulder . The attack went through like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter .
1784!
Thank goodness! It’s a critical hit!
Lin Yixin then ran up to Suren like the wind with a glowing dagger . The Fruit Knife G.o.ddess was about to unleash her wrath!
Moon Gaze! Extreme Break!
The boss lost a huge chunk of HP, his Defense greatly lowered . This is my chance!
I took a couple steps back before pouncing toward Suren with Pardon and Desperate Gambit!
MISS!
2479!
An impressive number appeared above the boss’s head, but the words that tumbled out of Lin Yixin’s mouth were “Lu Chen, watch out!”
“Huh?”
Suren abruptly turned around and slashed me with a glowing, b.l.o.o.d.y sword . It was another Sword Spirit Slas.h.!.+
Puchi!
For a moment, I felt like my body was being torn apart . My HP hit rock bottom in an instant!
Did I die?
But I didn’t . In fact, my HP suddenly returned to full in an instant!
What… what’s going on?
Lin Yixin was just as shocked as I was, but a quick look at the combat log revealed the truth:
Player “Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand” died .
Player “Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand” triggered “Immortality” and revived with full HP!

I couldn’t believe my luck . I actually triggered that 1% chance to revive with full health on the spot?
I couldn’t help but laugh . “Rest in peace, you evil, unrepentant b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
I swung the Ghost Ice Soul downward and executed the Thousand Mirage Slash . At the same time, Lin Yixin dashed past Suren and tore apart his final defenses with the Snow Shadow Sword . Finally, Suren was killed by our combined efforts!
… . . .
Thump!
Suren dropped to his knees and stared at me in disbelief . He questioned me as if he still couldn’t believe that I was doing this . “Why… just why?”
I put my sword to his neck and replied, “For the lives that were lost!”
Crack!
Suren’s head flew into the air, and the undead swordsman trainer was dead, once and for all .
Lin Yixin let out a sigh of relief and stared at me . She didn’t say a word .
I announced in the party channel, “Alright, mission complete! The boss is dead, but nothing has dropped unfortunately . Little Gui, I’ll give you back your s.h.i.+eld in a while . Now, go back to whatever it was you were doing, everyone!”
“Okay!”
I picked up Suren’s head and ran out of Frost Mound . Then, I stopped in front of Xinran’s grave and dug a hole in the ground . I buried Suren’s head in it and whispered, “I’m sorry, Xinran, I’m really sorry…”
Lin Yixin leaned against the snowy cathaya tree and watched me with a thoughtful expression . A while later, she walked up to me, put a hand on my shoulder and asked softly, “What is all this for, really? Are you sure you won’t regret this?”
I nodded . “I won’t let levels, trainers, or rewards shackle me anymore . I’ve been living under somebody else’s design for too long already . It’s about time I begin living as myself . ”
Lin Yixin gave me a “mn” of acknowledgment and fell silent again .
……
Ding~!
System Notice: Congratulations, the quest “Promise (SSS)” has been reactivated . Please summon Young Girl Xinran’s body immediately to enter the next phase!
“Huh?”
Summon Xinran’s body? What does that mean? Could it be… I could revive Xinran?
The skill “Summon Undead” in my skill list was s.h.i.+ning brightly . Was this the work of the system? Could I seriously “summon” her back to life?

A thread of hope reentered my heart . I wished from the bottom of my heart that Xinran could come back to life again, but at the same time I didn’t want to disturb her rest .
In the end, I gritted my teeth and made up my mind . I’ll resurrect her!
I waved my hand and said, “Summon Undead!”
Swhoos.h.!.+
The world turned dark as a b.l.o.o.d.y beam penetrated the clouds above our heads and into the tiny grave . It was unusually grandiose considering how my Summon Undead usually worked . The soil covering the grave suddenly moved a little, and a small, lightless skeleton suddenly burst through the earth and appeared in front of me . It was shocking to say the least . The skeleton’s level was very low, and it seemed to be staring at me with its empty eye sockets .
It was silent . I didn’t know what to say myself . It was at this moment the system dinged again .
