Chapter 1287: Chapter 1287: Parting in Life and Death
It seed quiet for a mont around her, then Qin Sisi heard Master Yipiao’s deep voice: "She is not from the Demon Sacred Realm. The world she belongs to has no magic, and people’s physical strength is generally quite frail. Although your royal blood has activated her Magic Source, her physical strength ultimately cannot reach the level required to survive in the Demon Sacred Realm. Over this long period, she has experienced many battles, with great physical exhaustion. The two recent battles with ng Yu should be the straw that broke the cal’s back."
The atmosphere quieted down again, this ti longer. Qin Sisi did not hear a sound, beginning to suspect that Ye You and Master Yipiao might have already left the room.
"Is there any way to help her body recover?"
After a long ti, Qin Sisi finally heard Ye You’s voice again, but this ti it was different from usual, more deep, more hoarse, with a slight tremor.
Soon after, she heard Master Yipiao sigh, saying: "For now, the only way is to try to send her back to her original world, then use so elixirs to strengthen her body, maybe she can live for a few more decades."
"Maybe?" Ye You furrowed his brow tightly. So much was sacrificed, only to exchange for decades of lifespan, still just maybe. It felt as if his heart was sinking, as if he were falling into a bottomless deep sea, all dark and cold.
Master Yipiao replied helplessly: "This is my first ti encountering such a situation; I cannot promise you anything. However, if she continues to stay in the Demon Sacred Realm, her fragile body can no longer withstand any battles. If affected by magic power again, it is likely she will perish. Even if she is nurtured and protected, living in peace, eating well, she will frequently fall into a sleeping state, unable to be like a normal person."
Qin Sisi felt a buzz in her ears, her mind halted, not clear about the words Ye You and Master Yipiao said afterward, just imrsed in the words spoken earlier by Master Yipiao.
Is she going to die?
Even if not dead, would she beco a Sleeping Beauty nearly akin to a corpse?
The sudden realization left Qin Sisi unable to recover for a long ti. She lay quietly there, motionless.
She and Ye You, through hardships, surviving life-and-death situations, finally accumulated eighty-one Soul Power, traversing from the Human World to the Demon Sacred Realm, then, after difficult battles, sought revenge and cleared all obstacles.
Thinking the end would be joyful and harmonious, not expecting fate would separate them by life and death.
Tears finally slid down from her gentle eye corner, seeping into her hair along her temple.
Even such small actions fell within Ye You’s eyes. A warm finger brushed past her temple, gently wiping away those two crystal-clear tears.
"Sisi, are you awake?" Ye You’s voice was gentle as water, softly inquiring.
Qin Sisi frowned slightly, using a great effort to slowly open her eyes, with tears just shed glistening within them.
Ye You’s eyes were full of anxiety and expectation. When their gazes t, both felt a pain within their hearts.
Master Yipiao knew he was a bit imposing, wisely leaving the room.
Ye You helped Qin Sisi sit up, placing a pillow behind her, concernedly asking, "How are you feeling? Better?"
Qin Sisi remained silent. After a while, she choked out, "Xiao Hei, am I near death?"
"No," Ye You interrupted Qin Sisi quickly, gazing into her eyes, saying, "I won’t let you die. You are my wife; we will lead a good life, definitely."
Qin Sisi moved forward, tightly embracing Ye You, placing her face on his broad chest.
Ye You responded imdiately, extending his arms to embrace her back, very firmly, as if fearing loss without enough strength.
They embraced for a long ti before Ye You attempted to pull Qin Sisi out of his arms, but Qin Sisi was unwilling to let go, never having craved his embrace like this, fearing she might never have the chance again once released.
Ye You sighed inwardly, using force to pry away Qin Sisi’s hands, softly asking, "You’ve been unconscious for a day and a night. Are you hungry? I’ll have soone bring so food."
It turned out to be a day and a night; the bridal chamber couldn’t be reached after all.
She reached out to grasp Ye You, who was heading towards the door, pulling his hand to her lips, kissing it lightly, whispering, "Our bridal chamber..."
Ye You froze for a mont, his lips curved slightly in a smile, speaking in a low voice, "It’s okay, we’ll owe it first. After you recover, we’ll make up for it, but I’ll ask for more interest then."
Qin Sisi’s pale cheeks tinged with blush, bashfully lowering her head, actually willing, willing to stay by him, to make him happy, to satisfy him, helping him forget all troubles and sorrows in joy.
She held Ye You’s hand, refusing to let go. Ye You, helpless, once again embraced her, gently comforting her by the ear, assuring her not to worry, promising he’d find a solution.
They talked for a long ti, and Qin Sisi was again engulfed by sleepiness, dozing off in Ye You’s embrace, still clutching Ye You’s hand.
Ye You had to wait until she fell into a deep sleep, then cautiously prying her hand, placing it lightly on the bedside.
Night was deep now, outside was all darkness and silence. Ye You lowered his head, gazing at Qin Sisi’s serene sleeping face, his heart filled with a bitter, dull ache.
Last night she suddenly fainted, really frightening him. He hurriedly sent for Xiao ng and Qing Xun to the palace, but Xiao ng and Qing Xun, skilled in healing, were powerless against Qin Sisi’s unconscious state. He could only ask Yun Wang to use the Shadowless Aircraft to go to the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle to invite Master Yipiao.
He initially thought Master Yipiao might be unwilling to co. Unexpectedly, upon hearing Qin Sisi’s situation, he imdiately followed Yun Wang over, but unfortunately, Master Yipiao’s conclusion was even more despairing.
He and Qin Sisi t Uncle Hong, the thousand-year Ghost Path Taoist, in the Human World. Uncle Hong told him that Qin Sisi would not live past thirty, which he initially didn’t believe.
Later, he brought Qin Sisi to the Demon Sacred Realm. That year, they were both twenty-four. Three years of study at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, three years of battle against the Sage Ruler, now Qin Sisi was just thirty.
He thought he could lead her across ti and space, change fate, yet unexpectedly, fate had laid the groundwork from the beginning. Birth, aging, illness, and death, no one can escape.
She held him so tight, gripping his hand without letting go. He knew she must have heard sothing, she was afraid, unwilling to part.
Actually, she didn’t know he was even more afraid, more unwilling.
He joyously married her using the Phoenix Spirit Palanquin, making her his wife, never expecting the grand wedding would turn into the prelude to a sorrowful separation.
In bridal chamber night, life and death separate heaven.
