anwhile, on Jiang Xuan’s end, the constantly flashing cursor disappeared, and he had pinpointed Xia Ye’s mobile signal.
The map kept zooming in, the position of the red dot becoming increasingly precise and clearer, eventually coalescing into a cluster of stars in the depths of the man’s eyes.
At last, he had found her...
The servant, carrying a tray of tea, knocked on the study’s door, "Mr. Jiang, please have so tea first..."
The room was empty, leaving only the sheer curtain beside the floor-to-ceiling window, which the wind blew high—
**
Only the last minute was left on the tir, 60 seconds was hardly enough to do anything.
The ticking of the bomb grew closer, as if one could already sll the eager gunpowder.
Shen Zhixi was gripping Luo Yi San’s neck tightly, while Luo Yi San, in agony, crouched at his feet: "Shen, Mr. Shen..."
"Make the tir stop! Make it stop," Shen Zhixi’s forehead veins were all bulging, Luo Yi San’s pupils shrinking instantly, for just a mont, he saw a python’s face on Mr. Shen’s face.
"Once the bomb is activated... it cannot be stopped," Luo Yi San said with difficulty.
Shen Zhixi: "You!"
His words were both true and false, but Shen Zhixi knew that he no longer wanted to live, such a person would not listen to him any more.
Shen Zhixi grabbed him by the neck, lifted him up, and flung him aside, venting all his anger on him.
The force was imnse, and Luo Yi San’s tall figure heavily smashed against the wall and rolled down.
He uncontrollably spat out a mouthful of thick blood from his chest, and along the cracks, bits of wall plaster fell off behind him.
Shen Zhixi swiftly wheeled over to Xia Ye, trying to help her untie and remove the explosives from her body.
"Can you defuse it?" Xia Ye: "If you get it wrong, it will explode imdiately."
The police had told her this when she had just returned to this body.
At that ti, as she was about to violently break free from the ropes, a shout fell from above: "Little sister, don’t be impulsive! You are tied up with a ti bomb on your back, forcibly breaking free could likely trigger it prematurely!"
The situation at that mont was still so vivid in her mind.
Unfortunately, this ti Uncle Police was not around.
When the rope was nearly undone, Shen Zhixi stopped his hands, his palms all sweaty.
Indeed, he had no idea how to defuse it.
The bomb would explode imdiately once separated from the body.
10,9,8,7...
No matter how much he prayed or commanded, the forbidden artifact remained indifferent with no change.
He had nothing left to trade with the forbidden artifact, it no longer obeyed his commands.
He could only watch helplessly, like any ordinary person, as the numbers uniformly decreased.
This ti he had truly endangered her...
Even without the forbidden artifact, Xia Ye’s Spiritual Energy had already been depleted while saving Xu He, let alone there not being enough ti.
3,2,1...
The instant the numbers reached zero, a stark bright light exploded from behind her—
That instant felt like a slow-motion movie scene, every second divided into countless fras.
The ball of fire blood in Shen Zhixi’s eyes; Xia Ye’s clothes on her back slowly turned black, charred, and shriveled.
The last rope burned through, but the next instant, she and everything around would be subrged by the bomb.
Xia Ye thought, it might as well end early and return to Ear Mountain.
But the thought of those adorable faces made it hard to let go.
Would praying to heaven be of any use at this mont?
If it worked, she could go back and change her WeChat na from "Heaven is Blind".
The burning sensation on her back grew more intense, Xia Ye closed her eyes, ready to face—
Yet before she closed her eyes, she thought she saw a vision of Holy Light descending from the sky.
The next instant, that extrely familiar presence suddenly appeared behind her, a strong arm looping through the bend of Xia Ye’s legs, the other tightly hugging her shoulders.
Her body about to be flung out was caught by that force.
Jiang Xuan held her as they landed safely, the bomb erupted behind them, and Shen Zhixi’s incredulous expression was swallowed by the firelight.
The massive explosion destroyed everything, the roof of the abandoned factory blew off, and everything was burning, Luo Yi San, lying in the corner, was almost instantly carbonized.
However, Xia Ye felt nothing, behind Jiang Xuan a massive invisible barrier rose high into the clouds, completely blocking everything out.
Outside the factory, the sound of car tires speeding over the road grew louder, Bru barking "woof woof."
Xia Xing parked the car ssily, the brothers rushing down like mad.
Seeing the soaring smoke filled their eyes with despair.
But the next second, they saw that man carrying their most cherished sister, walking out of the factory through the thick smoke.
Like a deity descending from heaven—
