She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement-Chapter 1699 - The Mute Yu Huang (2)
1699 The Mute Yu Huang (2)
Therefore, whenever there was strong wind, the city would still be invaded by sandstorms.
Xiao Shu was baffled that Sheng Xiao was covered in sand. He was a Divine Master, so why did he end up in such a sorry state?
With that thought in mind, the three of them quickened their pace and walked towards Sheng Xiao, but before they could get close to Sheng Xiao, they suddenly heard a shrill cry of pain from deep underground.
Sheng Xiao tensed up when he heard the voice.
That cry was a woman’s voice at times and a phoenix’s cry at other times.
It was Yu Huang.
Yin Rong trembled slightly and covered her lips with her hand as she muttered with heartache, “Is refining the Myriad Beast Art that painful?”
That was Yu Huang.
How intense was the pain for it to be able to torture Yu Huang to this extent?
At that moment, Sheng Xiao opened his eyes slowly. Then, he stared at Xiao Shu and the others as he said in a hoarse voice, “You guys are here.”
Jing Rujiu walked to Sheng Xiao quickly and asked, “Is it this painful every time she refines heart blood?”
Sheng Xiao nodded numbly.
“Yes,” he said. “In the beginning, she endured the pain, but she has to refine more than three thousand heart blood.” Sheng Xiao shook his head as he said with sorrow, “In order to increase the efficiency of the refinement, she cultivated a hundred heart bloods at the same time. In the past, she only refined one heart blood, but it hurt for a few days. Now, she has to endure a hundred times the pain at the same time. Even she can’t bear it.”
The more he spoke, the more pained Sheng Xiao became.
He closed his eyes and frowned as he said in extreme anguish, “I’m afraid of hearing her cry out in pain, but I’m even more afraid of not hearing her cry out.”
Upon hearing this, Jing Rujiu said with heartache, “Is there no way to relieve her pain?”
Sheng Xiao shook his head. “No. If there was, why would I be sitting here?”
Jing Rujiu’s eyes turned red.
Yin Rong handed the two jade bottles to Sheng Xiao as she said with tears, “These are Xiao Shu and Madam Jing Rujiu’s heart blood. Mr. Ji Linyuan is the only one left. Mr. Sheng, how many heart blood has yet to be refined by Yu Huang?”
After Sheng Xiao took the bottle, he lowered his eyes and said, “About… more than 2,500.”
Hearing this shocking number, the three of them were speechless.
Jing Rujiu suddenly said, “I won’t go back. I’ll stay here and guard her.” She couldn’t share Yu Huang’s pain, but she had to know how much pain Yu Huang was in.
Sheng Xiao said, “Mother, the sandstorm is too strong here. You should go back.”
“I’m not going back!” Jing Rujiu sat down directly and said, “I’ll stay here with you and my daughter. I want to remember the pain she’s enduring today. In the future, I’ll dote on her twice as much…” Jing Rujiu suddenly froze. Then, she covered her eyes with her hand and cried out sadly, “But she doesn’t have a future!”
As the successor of the Great Dao, Yu Huang had no future.
Yin Rong suddenly turned around and threw herself into Xiao Shu’s arms while sobbing.
As Xiao Shu caressed Yin Rong’s head, his eyes turned red as well.
“Xiao Shu, Yin Rong, go back.” Sheng Xiao didn’t intend to dissuade Jing Rujiu anymore.
Xiao Shu and Yin Rong understood that they couldn’t help Yu Huang share her pain even if they stayed here. There were more things waiting for them to do, so they could only leave.
After they left, Sheng Xiao saw that the sky was already dark, so he stood up and said to Jing Rujiu, “She’ll feel better late at night and her divine sense will be clearer. Mother, stay here. I’ll go give her their heart blood.”
Jing Rujiu said, “I want to go with you.”
“Mother.” Sheng Xiao pressed Jing Rujiu’s shoulder and suppressed his pain as he said, “Mother, she won’t let you see her face.”
Jing Rujiu opened her mouth, but didn’t insist anymore.
“Alright, I’ll stand guard here.”
“Yes.”
Sheng Xiao opened the door and walked alone in the darkness towards the depths of the ground where the smell of blood came from.
When he arrived at the magma pool deep underground, Sheng Xiao saw Yu Huang floating above the magma pool through the dim light of the Night-Luminescent Pearl on the wall.
She was naked and covered in injuries. Because she had forcefully refined the bloodline power that didn’t belong to her, her body had suffered the backlash of all kinds of bloodline energy, and her blood vessels had burst.
Her body was dyed red with blood, and even her hair was in strands.
Yu Huang was lying in fetal position.
Upon hearing the sound of footsteps, Yu Huang opened her eyes weakly and asked in a hoarse voice, “How many days are left?” She was asking how many days were left until the apocalypse battle.
Yu Huang, who completely controlled the Eternal Eye now, foresaw the day the apocalypse war broke out on the day she discovered Jun Qing’s true identity.
It was 417 days later.
After that day, Yu Huang had been in seclusion in the Ice Blazing City for 50 days.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiao replied, “There are still 367 days left.”
“There’s only a year and two days left.” With that, the magma pool fell silent.
Sheng Xiao stared at Yu Huang worriedly. When he noticed that Yu Huang had fainted from the pain, he tensed up, but just as he was about to hug Yu Huang, he suddenly saw her open her eyes again.
Yu Huang’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness as she said, “Brother Xiao, I’ll refine the sixth batch of heart blood later. You…” As she looked at Sheng Xiao weakly, she suddenly said, “Brother Xiao, come here and hug me, okay? ”
How could Sheng Xiao reject Yu Huang’s request?
He flew to Yu Huang’s side to hug her. However, when he saw Yu Huang’s bloody body, he didn’t know how to hug her.
Sheng Xiao suddenly burst into tears as he asked Yu Huang, “Jiujiu, you’re injured all over. How should I hug you?”
When Yu Huang saw Sheng Xiao crying, she suddenly felt that her request was too cruel to him.
“Hug my head and kiss my lips, okay?”
“… Okay.”
Sheng Xiao held Yu Huang’s face carefully and kissed her lips, which were blurry from bites, as piously as if he was kissing a god.
“Alright, you can leave now.”
“Yes.”
Sheng Xiao walked out obediently. When he reached the exit, he turned around and looked at Yu Huang. Seeing that Yu Huang was still looking for him, he knew that Yu Huang would only feel at ease after confirming that he was really out, so he didn’t stay any longer and strode away.
Yu Huang only sat up slowly after Sheng Xiao returned to the ground. Then, she waved her right hand gently in the air and a hundred bright red heart blood floated in front of her.
As Yu Huang stared at the heart blood, she recalled how she broke down every time she refined the heart blood. After she turned her head and looked in the direction where Sheng Xiao had left in, she suddenly formed a seal with her right hand and cast a silencing spell on herself.
After doing all of this, Yu Huang closed her eyes and released the spiritual energy in her body. It lingered around the hundred drops of heart blood and she refined them at the same time.
“Is she resting today?” After an entire day, Jing Rujiu didn’t hear Yu Huang’s screams, so she heaved a sigh of relief and thought that Yu Huang was resting.
Sheng Xiao looked up at the stars.
The stars were beautiful, but they couldn’t speak.
His eyes were teary, but he didn’t want Jing Rujiu to notice the abnormality, so he nodded slightly and replied, “Yes, she said that she’s too tired and needs to rest for a few days.”
Jing Rujiu was relieved to hear this. “That’s good. After she rests well, she’ll have the energy to continue refining the heart blood.”
“Yes.”
