670 The Darkness in the Northen Sky (2/2)

Ning Que got up with difficulty and walked towards Sangsang again.

He knew what would happen to Sangsang before he decided to leave the Desolate Man's tribe and go south. Something horrible, and even more terrifying than death would happen to her, for she would awake and be seen by Yama.

He did not mind the Underworld Invasion and the Everlasting Night. He only cared about Sangsang at that time.

Sangsang was fine.

The light from the southern sky could not fall on her ever again. Those rays of baking-hot light would be strangled by the gloomy and cold aura before they got close to her. Besides, the cold aura inside her would never hurt her anymore.

Sangsang was not fine.

She was looking at the south. Though the south was very far from here, she could clearly see every detail of the West-Hill Divine Palace coalition army, including their facial expressions.

From people's faces, she saw fear, nervousness, cowardice, hatred, sadness and every other negative expression. She saw everything except affection.

At present, no one in the human realm liked her anymore.

Sangsang looked down at the tips of her toes beneath her dress and the two blooming ice lotus flowers beneath her feet, and said, ”Teacher kept looking at the north before he died. I finally understand now. It turned out that what he was looking at was what I am now. It turned out that he already knew I was the shadow of the Nightfall.”

Ning Que walked up behind her and held her hands.

Sangsang stepped on the ice lotus flowers, not really touching the ground. At this moment, her body was a clear and massless existence.

Ning Que asked, ”How do you feel right now?”

Sangsang said in a low voice, ”I feel... I kind of feel powerful.”

Ning Que said, ”Do you like it?”

Sangsang shook her head, and said, ”No.”

Ning Que said, ”Endure it.”

Sangsang said, ”I can't.”

Ning Que asked, ”Why don't you like it?”

Sangsang looked up to the south and said, ”Because people don't like me anymore.”

Ning Que said, ”Pull yourself together. At least try to keep a clear head.”

Sangsang asked, ”What is a clear head like?”

Ning Que said, ”You look so ugly, and you have a bad temper. No one liked you from the beginning, except me. Right now, even if no one likes you, as long as I like you, there is absolutely no difference between the present and the past.”

Sangsang thought for a moment and said, ”That seems to be the case.”
