C99 (1/2)
Soo Soo's departure could be considered a good thing for both Yin Ling and me. After all, both of their abilities were similar. If they continued to fight, not only would there be no end to the fight, it would only result in a mutual destruction.
Soo Soo has left. Judging from her injuries, it seems that she won't be knocking on our door for a while. Thus, our current situation can be said to have temporarily calmed down. Of course, this could only be said to be temporary.
Ever since I met Soo Soo, I realized that she had gone mad. She kept saying that she loved me, but she wanted to kill me with all her heart. She was bloodthirsty, selfish and terrifying.
Facing the current Soo Soo, I had long since lost any good will. All I had was hatred. Regarding the Grand Matriarch's hatred, I swore to myself that I must avenge her.
”I'll return it to you. I've used up most of my strength, so I need to take a good rest.”
Yin Ling opened her mouth. Her voice sounded weak and it was difficult for her to speak.
I understood that after battling with Soo Soo for so long, she was already exhausted. She had to rely on her own conviction to persevere.
”Un, I understand. Go and rest well!”
From night until now, the battle that revolved around her has never stopped. I survived because of her protection, so I had no choice but to be grateful to her.
When I took control of my body again, there was an excruciating pain. Every part of my body was filled with waves of pain.
Apparently, this pain was much more distinct and powerful than when Yin Ling was controlling my body. I roughly swept a glance at my body's condition and saw that there were at least a dozen places where Soo Soo had torn it. There were even several wounds on my shoulder and back that were torn off along with my flesh.
The only fortunate thing was that even though his entire body was in no good condition, it was only a few superficial wounds. They would not affect his movements.
”No, I can't stay here any longer!”
After looking at the color of the sky, I whispered.
Soon, there should be passersby. If he continued to stay here, it might cause some unnecessary misunderstandings.
What's more, the Grand Matriarch had already been lying here for an entire night. It was time for her to bury herself in the ground and rest.
I dragged my heavily injured body and walked towards the grandma step by step. Although the wounds on my body were very painful, the pain in my heart was even more intense.
In the end, I took her in my arms, and because my stomach was broken, I had to pick her up and walk out of town.
Before I left, I turned around to look at Zhao Quan'er's corpse. Unknowingly, his corpse had already rotted to a state where it couldn't even smell. Maggots could be seen wiggling on his body, making him look extremely disgusting.
Of course, I only looked at him once and didn't want to help him collect his corpse. With his body in this state, even if someone found out, they wouldn't think I was the one who did it.
When heading out of the town, I didn't dare to walk on the main road. I only walked along paths where I barely saw anyone. If others were to see me like this with an old lady in my arms, it would be enough to scare them to death.
Fortunately, Jiangxia Town wasn't that big, so I quickly left the town. Plus, it was in the morning, so there weren't many people outside the town. This way, I wouldn't have to worry about being discovered anymore.
