Lu Xuan was in a daze when the drop of blood suddenly invaded his body. However, as the drop of blood spread, he suddenly felt a chill!
Cold! Extreme cold!
It was as if what entered his body was not a drop of blood, but a piece of ten-thousand-year-old ice!
Moreover, as the drop of blood continued to spread, the chill quickly spread throughout Lu Xuan's body.
Lu Xuan felt that his blood was about to freeze, and his whole body was no longer listening to him. However, in a short moment, the drop of blood spread throughout his body, and the chill enveloped him.
With a muffled thud, Lu Xuan fell heavily to the ground. However, his body still maintained its standing posture because his whole body was about to freeze, and he could not move at all.
The sudden change in Lu Xuan's situation immediately attracted Zhang Dongshuang's attention. She was originally concentrating on flipping through the ancient books, but at this moment, she was awakened by the sound of Lu Xuan falling to the ground.
As soon as she saw Lu Xuan on the ground, Zhang Dongshuang immediately turned pale with fright. She quickly put down the ancient books in her hands and rushed to Lu Xuan's side, trying to help him up.
However, when her hand touched Lu Xuan's body, she let out a scream and pulled her hand back. This was because Lu Xuan's body was extremely cold at this moment. No, cold was not enough to describe it, it should be ice cold!
It was as if he had just been fished out of a ten-thousand-year-old ice pool. That was simply not a temperature that a human should have. She did not know what was going on at all. Lu Xuan was clearly fine just a moment ago, but he suddenly became like this.
"Young Hero Lu, Young Hero Lu, what's wrong?" Zhang Dongshuang hurriedly asked.
Lu Xuan could hear Zhang Dongshuang's voice, but he could not answer her at all. The drop of blood that fused into his body dispersed into countless blood vessels, and they connected within his body. His own blood was almost frozen, and it was very difficult for it to flow.
"Cold!" Lu Xuan squeezed out a word with difficulty, and told Zhang Dongshuang about his condition.
However, what he said was nonsense. Now that his body temperature was so low, it would be strange if he was not cold.
Looking at Lu Xuan's state, Zhang Dongshuang's heart was in a mess. This unforeseen event was really out of her expectations. Logically speaking, there should not be any danger in the Land of Inheritance.
Lu Xuan's face turned from red to white, and then from white to green. It was obvious that he was freezing. Zhang Dongshuang held his hands and felt that the temperature seemed to be even lower than before.
Zhang Dongshuang looked around, but there was nothing at all that could warm her up. Furthermore, from the looks of Lu Xuan, it was probably no ordinary cold. The Qi and blood of martial artists were very strong, and ordinary cold could be completely ignored. Diseases like typhoid were even less likely to appear on a martial artist.
At that moment, she did not hesitate anymore. She could not care less about how cold Lu Xuan's body was. She hugged Lu Xuan's body and used her own body to warm up Lu Xuan.
After being hugged by Zhang Dongshuang and feeling the heat from her body, Lu Xuan felt a little better. However, it was just a little. The cold didn't seem to have any intention of stopping. He could feel that the blood in his body was starting to freeze slowly. More importantly, his consciousness was starting to become slower and duller, as if even his consciousness was about to be frozen.
Seeing that Lu Xuan's face was getting paler, Zhang Dongshuang could only hug Lu Xuan even tighter. At the same time, she said loudly in his ear, "Young Hero Lu, circulate your cultivation technique, and you might feel a little better. Hang in there!"
Zhang Dongshuang's voice drifted into Lu Xuan's ears. However, he still subconsciously circulated the Taiyi Origin Art. Lu Xuan had already circulated the Taiyi Origin Art countless times, so he was able to circulate it smoothly in no time.
However, even if he circulated the Taiyi Origin Art, it was still of no use. Moreover, the blood in his body was frozen, so the speed at which Lu Xuan circulated his cultivation technique became extremely slow. However, he managed to maintain his consciousness and not lose consciousness.
At that moment, Lu Xuan vaguely felt that Zhang Dongshuang, who was hugging him, was making some rustling movements. Soon, his clothes were suddenly removed, and his muscular body was immediately presented in front of Zhang Dongshuang.
In the stone chamber, Zhang Dongshuang's face was flushed. At that moment, she was actually naked. The rustling sounds just now were from her removing her clothes.
She was unable to completely warm Lu Xuan with the clothes separating them. When she saw that Lu Xuan's face was getting worse, she decisively gave up the reserved manner of a girl and gave Lu Xuan the warmest embrace with the most primitive contact.
She hugged Lu Xuan again. Zhang Dongshuang felt that she wasn't hugging Lu Xuan, but rather a block of ice. It was too cold. At that moment, she couldn't care less about her shyness and tightly clung to Lu Xuan. She didn't know if Lu Xuan could persevere, but she could only do her best.
After being hugged by Zhang Dongshuang again, Lu Xuan could clearly feel two soft lumps sticking to his back. A trace of warmth was transmitted to him. This was the first time that Lu Xuan felt warmth since he fell into the frozen state. It was as if his consciousness had become a little clearer.
However, even so, the situation didn't improve. As the coldness became stronger, even if he was hugged by Zhang Dongshuang, Lu Xuan couldn't feel the warmth anymore. The Taiyi Origin Art circulated more and more slowly, and his consciousness became more and more blurry.
He had a feeling that it was the feeling of death. His blood had begun to gradually freeze and flow very slowly. He didn't know what creature's blood was that had integrated into his body. It was very likely that it was the blood essence of a certain creature. There was no doubt that the energy of this drop of blood essence was abnormally huge. If he could absorb it, it would definitely bring great benefits to Lu Xuan.
Unfortunately, Lu Xuan's current body couldn't withstand the energy brought by this drop of blood essence. He was instantly countered by it. Such cold energy wasn't something that Lu Xuan could resist. It was a miracle that he didn't die until now. If he was an ordinary warrior, he would have long been frozen into a corpse.
The reason why Lu Xuan was able to withstand it was because his body had been tempered to be very strong. His endurance was stronger than ordinary warriors. Secondly, it was because of Zhang Dongshuang's existence. Although the heat that she provided couldn't be felt by Lu Xuan, there was still heat transmitted into his body. However, this heat was like a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. As the coldness became stronger, it wasn't of much use anymore.
Zhang Dongshuang watched as Lu Xuan's body deteriorated. At the beginning, when she hugged Lu Xuan, although Lu Xuan couldn't move, he could still speak. Later, he couldn't even speak, but at least his breathing was smooth. However, now, Lu Xuan's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, as if he would stop breathing at any time.
Looking at Lu Xuan in her arms, Zhang Dongshuang couldn't help but recall the scene of Lu Xuan protecting her along the way. No matter what enemy he faced, no matter what kind of danger he faced, he was always so confident and brave, as if there was nothing he couldn't do.
But now, he was very weak. A drop of tear involuntarily fell from the corner of Zhang Dongshuang's eye. She couldn't believe, and was unwilling to believe, that Lu Xuan would die like this.
Drops of tears constantly dripped on Lu Xuan's face. When the tears dripped down, they were hot, but they quickly turned into ice. It could be seen how low the temperature of Lu Xuan's body was.
Zhang Dongshuang was in a daze, and her tears kept falling. She realized that she had already developed feelings for Lu Xuan. At first, it was just a simple feeling of dependence, but as they spent more time together, Lu Xuan would always stand in front of her at critical moments. This feeling of dependence had gradually turned into a hazy love.
However, she knew that with Lu Xuan's strength, he must have an extraordinary background, and she wasn't worthy of him at all.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Dongshuang came out of her daze. When she looked at Lu Xuan again, she realized that Lu Xuan was no longer moving, and he didn't even seem to be breathing.
Her heart suddenly trembled. Although she had already guessed this result, she still couldn't accept it when she saw the current situation. At that moment, she reached her trembling hand under Lu Xuan's nose. There was no breath at all. Lu Xuan had already stopped breathing …
There was no breath, his body was cold, and there was no trace of vitality. The current Lu Xuan looked no different from a corpse.
"Young Hero Lu, Young Hero Lu!" Zhang Dongshuang shook Lu Xuan's body with all her might, as if she wanted to wake Lu Xuan from his deep sleep. Unfortunately, no matter how she shook, Lu Xuan didn't respond at all.
Zhang Dongshuang couldn't hold it in anymore. She hugged Lu Xuan's body and cried loudly. Was it really the heavens that were jealous of geniuses? Young Hero Lu was such a young hero, but he died inexplicably in the Zhang family's Land of Inheritance.
"Ancestor, could it be that you saw that Young Hero Lu's talent was extraordinary, so you wanted to bring Young Hero Lu to train him personally? But Young Hero Lu isn't a member of the Zhang family. If you want to bring him, you should bring me along … "Zhang Dongshuang murmured. Her eyes were lifeless, and her tears had already dried up. She couldn't shed a single tear anymore.
"Young Hero Lu, it's all my fault. If I didn't ask you to bring me to this Land of Inheritance, so many things wouldn't have happened, and you wouldn't have died inexplicably here. I really deserve to die a thousand deaths …"
…
Zhang Dongshuang hugged Lu Xuan's body and kept murmuring. It seemed as if she was talking to herself, but it also seemed as if she was talking to Lu Xuan.
She checked Lu Xuan's breathing again, but there was still no reaction. She suddenly made up her mind, and looked at Lu Xuan with deep emotions in her eyes. She slowly said, "Young Hero Lu, it's all my fault. I should have died long ago, but because of your protection, I'm able to live until now and even obtain the ancestor's inheritance. I should have gone down to accompany you, but I haven't avenged my family. If I die just like this, I'll let down all your efforts, Young Hero Lu. Once I've avenged my family, I'll definitely go down to look for you!"
After saying that, Zhang Dongshuang kissed Lu Xuan's face gently, and then slowly put him down. She put on her clothes again, and her eyes were filled with death.
