Chapter 224 The Little Angel
“Nan-er, how long did I lay unconscious?”
“Mm…… it’s already two years, quite long, master you never wake up ever since the beginning.” said Nan-er sadly. A voice inside her head had told her that, only her master had the ability to make her come from the sword, if he was dead, she will be forever trapped inside the sword. So, within these two years she was anxiously waiting.
Two years!?
Ye Wuchen’s breathing was sluggish, his body suddenly went stiff. He had never unexpected that he would wake up from the abyss of death, and it was already two years. Between the two years time, in the outside world things remained the same, but the people have changed. This was the bottom part of the Death Abyss, a mysterious, lonely and unfamiliar world, the delicate and weak Ning Xue unexpectedly stayed in this kind of place, caring for him, as they passed through the whole two years.
Two years of time, she endured the loneliness and fear all the time, everyday she would persistently anticipating him to wake up…… Ye Wuchen’s heart awfully ached, he didn’t know how this young girl, who didn’t know about everything and she who always relied on him, had made it through.
“Xue-er, I would never allow you to get hurt, not anymore.” He glanced at her, telling himself again and again.
When he fell into the Death Abyss, the damages in his internal organs were sufficient enough for an ordinary person to immediately die, but at this moment his body was weak and powerless, yet it was painless. He believed that the damages in his own internal organs were fully recovered, or else with such serious injury, without the self protective power he would simply unable to maintain for two years without dying.
But…… what kind of power had permitted his internal organs to fully recover, and maintained his own life for entire two years without dying.
Is it the power created by the Wuchen Spell? No, it shouldn’t be…… He was quietly lying down, yet he didn’t feel any presence of the spiritual power and its absorption. His body was powerless, and it no longer absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth. At that time when he ate the Heavenly Fire Dragon Fruit, ignited up all his potential powers, and consumed all his strength, he already had such realization. Just like a tiny grass, as long as the conditions were suitable, no matter how many times it was cut, as long as a little part of its roots remained, it would grow again through the Spring season, but supposing that its roots were also taken out completely, it will no longer grow again.
The Heavenly Fire Dragon Fruit had burned up all his potential powers, and these potential powers, during the time when they fell down, had completely transformed into the element of wind when he intended to save Ning Xue, during that time it was completely exhausted, without any bit of it remained.
Now when he was fully recovered, he would just become an ordinary powerless person.
“What had saved me, Nan-er, did you know?” Ye Wuchen weakly asked.
“I know it, I know it.” Nan-er immediately answered, she impatiently wanted to tell him what she had discovered: “It’s the power of life. When master passed out, the power of life would frequently enter your body, that’s the way it was. If it wasn’t for this power of life, master you were already…… already……”
“Power of Life??”
The major elements of fate: Life, Death and the Power of Life within the Soul, it’s the greatest, and the mildest elemental power, completely opposite to the Element of Death, it could drive away the death, being regarded as the life force of the living things. Aside from elimination the death, the power of life didn’t contain any offensive powers, but its healing power was simply incomparable with the power of brightness, based on legend once the power of life became stronger at a certain degree, it could also make a person rise from the dead.
“Where was it from?” asked Ye Wuchen
“I also don’t know. When master you passed out, the area before my eyes was black all along, couldn’t see anything. But, these powers of life wasn’t always present, but just occasionally. Sometimes a few times within a day, or sometimes once every few days, I don’t know where they came from.” Nan-er answered doubtfully.
“Brother…… brother……”
Ning Xue who lost her consciousness due to crying was softly mumbling, almost like dreaming about something, her both hands gripped tight, she opened her misty eyes, meeting Ye Wuchen’s both eyes.
“Xue-er……” the corner of Ye Wuchen’s mouth slightly moved, as he gently said, his voice was dry, rough, and weak, sufficient enough to be dispersed by the gentle breeze.
The loud cry almost exhausted all the strength in Ning Xue’s body, she opened her eyes, the most frightening thing for her was that the scene a while ago might just be a dream, once she wakened up, all of it might just disappear. She opened her eyes, looking at brother’s face, she foolishly smiled, then leaning her head in his chest, she said with tears: “Brother, I knew it, I knew that you will wake up at the soonest time……”
Ye Wuchen had tried numerous times to lift up his hand wanting to touch her, but his body couldn’t follow what he wanted to do, after he repeatedly tried hard, the originally fluttering body of his felt the intense dizziness, he was afraid that he would lose consciousness again, then he gave up, recalling every moments he had carried her in his arms, he smiled and said: “How can I be willing to part with Xue-er.”
Two years of time, Ning Xue before his eyes didn’t change a bit, didn’t have any signs of growth.
“En…… brother you have finally woken up, that’s great, that’s great. Brother, we will never be apart from each other, okay?” Ning Xue said foolishly, unable to hold back her tears. Her hands were grabbing his clothes all along, quite tightly, being afraid that once she loosened up a bit, the dream-like happiness in front of her eyes would disappear immediately afterwards.
“Okay…… How can I ever allow myself to be apart from Xue-er…… Xue-er, you must have suffered too much hardship.” He pitifully said.
