Chapter 335: Bess and the Clairvoyant
Bess’ voice was indifferent “Do you think you’re in a position to make demands? It’s simple – accept, and she lives Refuse and she dies”
Lan Jue’s lips curled in to a bitter expression, as though forced to s so unsavory However, it was quickly replaced with an easy sht, you can take mine”
Bess was suspicious Anyone – regardless of the circumstances – would not be happy to face ienuine happiness
“What reason do you have to be so happy?” she asked
“No reason,” Lan Jue assured “Death just isn’t such a frightening prospect, sometimes” What exactly he meant, only he knew
He’d been off kilter ever sinceZhou Qianlin She looked so much like Hera, that he couldn’t help but think about his dead soule of affection whenever they were together because of it
Of course, intellectually he knerong He couldn’t betray Hera’sfor her sister, no matter how alike they seemed
For this reason he’d been avoiding her He almost lost control on An Lun, and they only stopped because of Tang Mi’s interruption He was disappointed in how strong an affect she had on his, it was ireat a shadow in the depths of his heart
He owed Qianlin, at least that’s how he saw it Family was important to Lan Jue, so no et back to hers If his life truly would spare hers, then it was an acceptable trade His debt would be paid – and he’d pass on to the next world, where he would meet with his Hera
As an Adept – indeed, as an Adept that on – Lan Jue was convinced of the existence of the soul Although he knew that finding Hera’s soul in the vast expanse of the universe would be nearly iave him hope That’s why he’d s his lost love once again This certainly wasn’t a bad thing Life and death were trivial, in the end
Bess nodded her head “So be it, I’ll help you iven you”
As Bess spoke, she swiped her claw-like nails through the air Gashes appeared on Lan Jue’s lian to flow
Lan Jue’s blood was different froht expect, his was a bright, metallic red Once an adept achieved ninth rank, their Discipline was coled with the blood, bones, ans The color and texture of his blood was borne froy
It’s said a single drop of a Paragon’s blood contains an iy Under specific conditions, such a drop could perforon, he had aenergy was protogenic power
Lan Jue’s lifeblood vanished drop by drop in to the surrounding emptiness Suddenly there was a flash, and the world around hied A familiar silhouette appeared within the darkness
Qianlin was lying in the e She was bound by shi+y Lan Jue could see her eyes – those stunning, gorgeous blue eyes – ith tears
Lan Jue’s chest tightened It was happening all over again, just like that day when he was forced to say farewell to Hera
He could see what she wanted to say in her eyes He wanted to say the sa
I’m sorry
He could feel her affection for hih he wanted to call out to her he was unable to Bess slowly hobbled to her She stopped at her side, hovering over her prostrate forht hand, then – swipe!
Qianlin winced as the arteries of her wrist were opened Blood poured from her wounds It, too, was not a dark red Instead, it was surrounded by a haze of pure white light It was like the precious fluid was protected by a fluorescent covering
Lan Jue’s whole body began to shake He glared daggers at the old woh for this monstrous witch
Bess looked infinitely caly face bore no e before her were no more than insects
The flow of blood increased, and very soon the fatigue of blood loss set in Lan Jue, stronger thanconsciousness quickly
