The young man's helpless and bitter smile caused Gu Ruoyun's heart to ache fiercely. She raised her arm and pulled the young man's thin body tightly into her arms. She rested her head on his shoulder and did not say a word.
Xia Linyu's heart shook when he felt the cool sensation on his shoulder. He whispered, "Sister... Are you crying?"
"I'm sorry," Gu Ruoyun hugged the young man tightly and said, "I wasn't able to protect you."
"Sister," Xia Linyu smiled. His smile was very happy and it also served as a foil to his emotions, "It's only an arm, it's nothing. Even though I've lost this arm, I can still fight for you. Besides, I'm now... Finally, I'm no longer a burden to you. Sister, I'm really happy, I'm even happier than when I was reborn."
Gu Shengxiao stood behind the two of them and furrowed his brows as he listened to their conversation.
However, he assumed that the young man's rebirth was referring to the fact that he had been saved from the brink of death so he did not think too much of it.
"Yu'er, don't worry, I'll find a way to heal your arm." Gu Ruoyun slowly released the young man in her arms. Her delicate features were filled with determination, "This is my promise to you."
"Sister..." Xia Linyu's heart trembled and he smiled, "You don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. To me, as long as you can stay by my side, that's enough. In this case, forget about losing an arm, even if you take away my leg, it doesn't matter."
In his past life, she was the sister whom he had depended on for survival! She was also the person whom he had spent his entire life trying to protect.
However, at that time, he was unable to cultivate due to his body and had become a burden to his sister.
Now that he had been reborn with great difficulty and possessed both talent and power, how could he give up so easily? Even if he only had one arm and one leg left, he would work hard to walk on!
"Big brother," Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment before she turned towards Gu Shengxiao and said, "I'll have to trouble you to take care of Yu'er for the next few days."
Gu Shengxiao nodded and stroked Gu Ruoyun's head lovingly, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of him."
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun did not say anything else and quickly walked out and returned to her tent.
When she entered the tent, she took out the phoenix egg from the Ancient Divine Pagoda.
"Zixie..." Gu Ruoyun gently stroked the phoenix egg in her hand and murmured to herself, "When are you going to come out? If you were here, perhaps you would know of a way to help Yu'er. "
"He is already so pitiful. How can I bear to let him lose an arm for the rest of his life? No matter what, I have to help him, even if I have to trade my arm for it. "
Patter.
Suddenly, a crack appeared on the shell of the phoenix egg, causing Gu Ruoyun's fingers to freeze in place. A sense of pleasant surprise appeared in her eyes.
"Zixie?"
"Clack, clack!"
Under her nervous gaze, more and more cracks appeared, until they covered the entire phoenix egg.
Then —
With a crisp sound, the eggshell broke into countless pieces and fell to the ground.
Gu Ruoyun's heart instantly stopped beating. She stared blankly at the little Purple Phoenix lying on her palm. What followed was a wave of ecstasy. She had not felt this ecstasy ever since Zixie had left.
Even Gu Ruoyun herself did not know how to describe the excitement in her heart...
