"i i! You need to stop now! We need to leave imdiately!" Wei Jiayi exclaid after killing another YinYing. His eyes had already confird that his beast on the surface was really anxious to bring its mate to a safe place. He was grateful that it was cooperating and not fighting for control to grab Gao Lan i and get out of this place.
He continued when he didn't receive any action in response from her, "What are you still doing? The citizens are already out of the empire! i i please!" His voice desperate as he saw the indication that Gao Lan i was struggling. For him, their main priority was to either flee or fight a losing battle.
Giving up now did not an he was a coward, despite his dragon's blood that he still took pride in. Wei Jiayi had already been clear about the situation, as it was impossible to fully defeat beings that got sustenance from things that most beings couldn't live off of.
Instead of stopping, Gao Lan i continued to chant despite the situation. Gao Lan i was currently in the middle of the magical transportation circle, in lotus position as the others protected the large circle from the YinYings. Her face pale, lips purple and dry.
Wei Jiayi could also see the large beads of sweat that were running down her face. She was sweating so bad that the robes she was wearing already showed so skin.
Gao Lan i still continued to utter the necessary wordings to complete her spell and ignore Wei Jiayi, she didn't even look at him to acknowledge that she heard him.
She could only concentrate on her chants while being grateful that she'd already sent the citizens sowhere else. Though in a very difficult situation, she was glad to know that there were those who she could depend on, despite there also being those who chose to run away and crush the spelled stone.
Gao Lan i could of course hear Wei Jiayi, but she could not stop even if she wanted to. The number of spiritual fragnts connected to her at that ti could not simply be severed so easily. It would either injure her or the fragnt user.
The next choice was to crush the stone, which she also did not want to happen. Gao Lan i would rather fight head on instead of running after all her effort.
Effort to not only save all the citizens, but to save her family too. The Gao family might not be the strongest family around, but their principles and values, to the beings of the Shize Empire, could not be compared to by anyone else.
The royal family had already left the Empire, but the Gao family was left behind to protect everyone.
Heroism. A stupid notion that Gao Lan i despised a lot from her previous life. It was stupid. However, Yen Mingjue is right. She felt guilty for disrupting the balance. She did not know what exactly she would do, but at that ti she did not care.
Right now, she wanted to do good. She could use a lot of good things to back her up if needed. Especially when she was facing them... The beings that created the laws that they were required to follow.
Gao Lan i always found Wei Jiayi being upset for her safety, rather nice. She wanted him to worry more about her, a selfish whim on her part that made her feel that she was the most important to him. She also wanted to see his eyes changing colors looking at her like she was the most important thing in the world.
Add that all up, Gao Lan i could not and would not stop. Thus she continued to absorb the cleansed spiritual energy from everyone like a sponge despite it being difficult and tornting as it was more than she could handle at a ti!
