Chapter 563: Have to Live

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was well into the night, and frigid rolling waves crashed against a decayed wooden plank on the shore.

The grunts of sea creatures could be heard in the surroundings.

Despite the darkness of night, the starlight gently illuminated the silhouette of an enormous sea creature underwater.

The silver fish had a tail, which was tens of centimeters long, and wagged it at the front of the wooden plank. A thin thread connected the wooden plank to the tail as the fish towed the wooden plank forward.

The aura emanated from the silver fish slightly terrified the hibernating deep-sea creatures.

There were jagged cracks all around the silver fish’s body, as though it was about to shatter at any moment.

Despite the silver fish’s impressive aura, its lifeforce was incredibly weak.

An old man sat on the wooden plank. Half of his body was already gone. He sighed as he looked at the short-haired woman next to him. Her face was as white as a sheet, and she was sweating cold sweat.

Worry, sorrow, and subtle despair were interlaced within the sigh.

The short-haired woman had her head in her hands as she curled up into a ball. Her body was quivering violently.

In a flash, she seemed to recover.

She resembled a fallen leaf in the blizzard, thin and flimsy.

The old man used the remaining half of his body to lift a dead fish from the wooden plank and handed it to the short-haired woman.

“Yiren, your sacred source lifeform is on the cusp of death. You will continue to experience the painful spasms that come from your damaged soul until the Absolute Love Poppy recovers.”

The short-haired woman’s hands were tightly clasped together. She was already aware of this injury. Using a marrow contract to allow a sacred source lifeform to combine with one’s soul was the equivalent of sharing a soul with the sacred source lifeform’s body.

Her Absolute Love Poppy was only left with half a rhizome and one cluster of roots. It was nearly impossible for it to recover.

“It’s too bad that all my feys are linked to the Absolute Love Poppy. Now that the Absolute Love Poppy is almost dead, the rest of my feys have all fallen asleep,” muttered the short-haired woman.

The short-haired woman gnashed her teeth and hissed. “I never expected that Seventh Page War wasn’t a human. Otherwise—”

The short-haired woman once again cradled her head between her hands and started trembling vigorously before she could finish speaking.

It was clear that she was feeling the pain of her damaged soul again.

The old man gazed at the anguished short-haired woman with hatred. He mustered his strength and used the hand that remained to forcefully hit the short-haired woman’s head.

“Yiren, you are the Dark Envoy chosen by the Seven States of Darkness. You are the Dark Envoy Lordess of the Seven States of Darkness. You are capable of more than revenge. At the very least, you need to live!” bellowed the old man.

A second later, the short-haired woman stopped trembling, but she continued to hang her head.

Hot tears cascaded down the short-haired woman’s cheeks and landed on her already soaked spirit qi clothes.

Under the night sky, the bitter tears fell and mixed with the even more bitter sea.

Su Yiren blamed herself immensely.

If I hadn’t been so confident of my Absolute Love Poppy’s abilities and used my title as Dark Envoy to order Elder He to ambush Seventh Page War with me, Elder He would not be in this sorry state now.

Elder He was a god-class expert and possessed a Creation Breed fey. Even if his body was destroyed, he would be able to fully recover if he received treatment.

However, Seventh Page War had killed Elder He’s Nether Sea Jellyfish.

Elder He’s Shuttle Arrow Shark had also been shattered when it forced itself through the cage surrounding the Radiance War Chariot.

Elder He had paid by burning his soul, and the Shuttle Arrow Shark led the two of them forward in the deep sea full of powerful creatures.

Su Yiren knew in her heart that Elder He was allowing his life to burn up so he could accompany her as her life reached its end.

The inevitable goodbye sliced as deeply and painfully as a knife.

Elder He regretted hitting Su Yiren.

However, he felt that he needed to say what had to be said.

He sighed, inhaled deeply, and said in a low voice, “Yiren, look up at me.”

Su Yiren slowly lifted her head to meet the dilapidated sight that was Elder He.

Su Yiren’s lips were tightly pressed together, and fresh blood dripped down the side of her mouth. It rolled down her chin and landed on the wooden plank.

Elder He was about to speak, but the waves suddenly grew larger.

The Shuttle Arrow Shark, which was towing the wooden plank, suddenly slowed down. Although it was in the sea, it seemed as though it was stuck in mud as it could only inch forward.

“Damn, the Shuttle Arrow Shark has been targeted by a wild Creation Breed fey in the sea.”

A fountain of spirit qi burst forth from Elder He. His god-class expert power suddenly gripped the tumultuous sea, and the water pulsed.

All the organisms in the sea escaped to its depths.

During the explosion of Elder He’s god-class expert power, the cracked Shuttle Arrow Shark’s body was suddenly alight with silver spatial energy.

The spatial energy on the Shuttle Arrow Shark’s body formed an intricate map of spatial etchings.

The spatial etchings swirled around the Shuttle Arrow Shark’s body before being transferred to the sea. They formed strips of solid spatial conveyor belts.

As Su Yiren watched this scene unfold, tears flowed down Su Yiren’s face and mixed with the bloodied water below her.

Su Yiren had witnessed such a sight numerous times when the Dark Federation was being attacked by Seventh Page War’s 32 Chanter team.

Elder He’s expression was exceptionally solemn as he instructed Su Yiren, “We’re near the Divine Wood Federation. The distance can be covered by one of the Shuttle Arrow Shark’s conveyor belts. I’ll send you there. Dark Envoy Lordess, you have to live. Yiren, you have to live.”

Elder He did not say much more.

The last two statements were a blessing, and those words came directly from Elder He’s heart.

Living was the basis of everything.

Regardless of Su Yiren’s title as a Dark Envoy, or because he had watched over her as she grew up, it was all Elder He’s final hopes for her.

A steady flow of tears was streaming from Su Yiren’s eyes.

Before Su Yiren could react, the silver river of a conveyor belt had completely enveloped Su Yiren.

Su Yiren was soon swept away by the silver river and disappeared over the horizon.

The silver light had not even disappeared when crimson tentacles had already reached upward from the sea’s depths.

The tentacles curled over the dimly lit Shuttle Arrow Shark and pulled it down into the deep sea, dragging Elder He down with it.
