Realms In The Firmament

Chapter 1225: Hands Tied

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Such a beauty died before his eyes.

He had the Boundless Space, the supreme dan beads, the fantastic Ying Yang Fruits, the world's best martial art… but his hands were tied. There was nothing he could do to save her…

He was hit by the frustration of watching a beautiful lady die in his arms while there was nothing he could do to change the fact. He felt powerless!

Suddenly, he was lost.

It seemed his head was filled with the memory of Bing Xinyue.

'Master Feng, it has been a while.'

'It turns out Master Feng is the young Lord Ye.'

'Lord Ye, you are well. I guess I should mind my own business only… I am ashamed, and I sincerely apologize for the troubles I made.'

'After today, we may still meet again. Life is long; I hope we will meet someday.'

…

Ye Xiao kept thinking about 'I hope we will meet someday', and the grief kept hitting him in the heart.

She wished. They met. However, when they finally met again, it was the last time they met ever. Afterward, they were in two different worlds, life and death!

Ye Xiao was grieved, but he didn't forget what Bing Xinyue asked him to do. He pulled himself together and held Wenren Chuchu up. After checking on her, he confirmed that the lady wasn't breathing!

Ye Xiao wasn't surprised about Wenren Chuchu's death. He was just thinking about what had happened on the two ladies.

[They must have discovered the two sects' vile plan, so the two factions have been hunting them, trying to kill them. Now, they finally get to me… Even though I have come to help, they are already defeated. One of them is dead, while the other may also be dead.]

Whatever he was thinking, he understood that Ye Clan and himself owed the two ladies a lot!

Ye Xiao held Wenren Chuchu in his arms and put his finger under her nose. He frowned.

She wasn't breathing.

He was anxious, thinking about Bing Xinyue's words. He couldn't care about the decency between a man and a lady, just reached his hand into Chuchu's clothes to touch her chest. He tried to feel her heartbeat, but there was none. However, he felt a little residual warmth of her heart. Her legs and arms were all cold.

Wenren Chuchu should be recognized dead in normal circumstances. It was impossible to save her anymore.

Ye Xiao was decisive. He quickly poured a flow of spiritual qi into her body to protect the warmth in her heart. Then, he took out a few supreme dan beads, including the Life Origin Dan. He tried to feed her, but she was almost dead. Her body stopped the automatic function, and her mouth was shut tight. She couldn't open her mouth, not to mention swallow.

Ye Xiao carefully held her chins and made her lips move. However, her teeth were closed tight.

He had no other choice but to put the dan beads into his own mouth and wait till the dan beads were melted. Then, he put his mouth on Wenren Chuchu's mouth and poured the liquefied dan bead into her mouth bit by bit through the teeth.

Wenren Chuchu couldn't swallow anymore so the fluid would slop out, so he had to push his lips hard to seal her mouth. It took him nearly half an hour to feed the dan beads into her.

When he was sure the dan beads all went down her throat, he took a long breath and said, "Why is her mouth shut so tight!"

After a while, he felt that her heart had become warmer. It seemed her heart even started to shake off and on. That meant at least her heartbeat was back. However, neither her spiritual power or soul made a response to Ye Xiao's touch.

If Wenren Chuchu was ninety-nine percent dead before the dan beads, it was ninety-five percent now after what Ye Xiao did.

It worked but didn't make things any better.

"Why?" Ye Xiao frowned and murmured, "Life Origin Dan extends her life and brings back her soul power. Besides, there are other dan beads which enhance her cultivation, broadens her Jing and Mai, and boosts her energy flow… I used them all. There is a dan bead that is supposed to recover her spiritual power… It shouldn't be like this…"

When he tried to pour spiritual energy into her Jing and Mai again, the spiritual energy stayed in her heart. Her Jing and Mai were all blocked…

Ye Xiao frowned and thought for a long time. He was helpless now. Suddenly, he got into Boundless Space and scratched some powder of the Heavenly Crystal Marrow. He fed Wenren Chuchu the fluid of supreme dan beads in the same way, but with the powder of the Heavenly Crystal Marrow in the fluid this time, it finally worked. Heavenly Crystal Marrow was amazing. Her heart started to beat heavier…

However, it still didn't make any significant difference…

Ye Xiao kept rubbing his head. He didn't understand. With what he had fed Wenren Chuchu, he could even bring a dead man to life. He just couldn't understand why they failed on Wenren Chuchu.

"Wait… Could it be… Did she use some special martial art like the stupid Seven-in-one Mergence?" Ye Xiao looked at Wenren Chuchu's pale face and said, "Holy hell! If she did, she is much worse than Han Bingxue right now!"

"That is not good… Bingxue was almost dead, but he had the last bit of his life essence, and I saved him in time. With the right dan beads and his own amazing cultivation power, he finally made it back to life. Chuchu has been in this situation for a while, and she was weak in cultivation. Her life energy has stopped running. She couldn't even digest the dan beads. No matter how useful the dan beads are, they wouldn't work on her. Her Jing and Mai were totally broken. It was difficult to pour spiritual energy into her…" Ye Xiao sighed. He felt anxious.

Wenren Chuchu loved him. He knew that.

Was he going to watch two beautiful ladies die in one day in his arms, who both loved him that much?

"No! I won't let that happen! Xinyue is gone! I can't let Chuchu go too!"

Ye Xiao gritted his teeth and took out another pink Saint Ying Yang Fruit. He forcibly pulled off her lower jaw, pushed the fruit into her mouth, and then closed her mouth.

He bet the fruit would work! It was a magical fruit after all!

It had to be useful!

It was the last thing he could do now.
