"You... cough..."

"Enough. Don’t speak to with that face and voice anymore, you’re not worthy." Red Sleeve held the Death God’s Chain, looking at the little boy expressionlessly.

In that instant, he was no longer the diligent, caring mother figure in the boy’s eyes, but rather a relentless ghost from Hell demanding a life.

"Red Sleeve, you’re crazy... you’re courting death... If you lay hands on , you’ll die too..." The little boy’s face was pale, and he spoke with difficulty, as his life force was quickly dissipating.

"I already said, I am the Grim Reaper’s heir. If you dare deceive , I’ll ensure you die a miserable death!"

Red Sleeve looked at the boy with the eyes of soone viewing a dead person, speaking as she swung her right arm and pulled out the chain.

The chain detached from the boy’s body, but along with it ca his soul.

Seeing the partial blue soul being dragged out from his back, the boy was horrified and disregarding the intense pain, he clutched his chest, stood up, and staggered away.

Yet, his soul had been hooked by the chain, and as he fled, more of his soul was drawn out, stretching like rubber mud.

Until at one mont, the soul was pulled to its limit, could no longer endure the tension, and broke away from the boy.

A full human Soul Shadow appeared in the air, pulled back by the chain.

On the other end, Red Sleeve’s surface had already ford a Grim Reaper Phantom, the soul flew over and fell straight into the Grim Reaper’s mouth, disappearing.

At the sa ti, the boy fleeing on the opposite side collapsed with a thud, his eyes quickly lost their spirit.

Mu You and Lin Xue watched this scene from afar, exchanged glances, and did not interfere; after all, it was a private feud between the two.

Once everything settled, Red Sleeve walked up and picked up the boy’s corpse from the ground.

Looking at the terrified dead child in her arms, Red Sleeve felt a vast sadness after realizing it.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t cry; her tears had beco numb from the nightmares over ti.

"It wasn’t supposed to be like this..."

"When exactly did it start to change..."

Red Sleeve recalled that night a year ago.

Back then, she was just an ordinary woman, who had just graduated from vocational college and beca pregnant before marriage, struggling for work and a ager inco without seeing a future.

Until that night, she and her boyfriend argued fiercely over trivial household matters as usual.

A person shrouded in black appeared by their window, extending an olive branch to them.

"Do you want to rise above others?"

"If you don’t want to continue your current life, sign this contract and beco my disciple."

"I will grant you powers that others can’t fathom, and your child will beco soone great in the future, free from the hardships you have endured..."

Whether it was truly for the sake of their future child, or a longing for the painted pie by the one in black, or simply impulsive recklessness.

In short, she and her boyfriend haphazardly agreed to sign that Blood Covenant.

Little did they know, it was the temptation of demons.

It was from that mont that their family was dood to the tragedy now...

"Cough..."

Red Sleeve snapped out of her distant thoughts, suddenly felt sweetness in her throat, and coughed up fresh blood.

With that blood, her hair rapidly faded from black to white, and wrinkles appeared on her facial skin.

Lin Xue was stunned; she could clearly feel that Red Sleeve’s life force was rapidly fading.

Red Sleeve showed no surprise to her body’s changes; there was a clause of ’symbiotic’ contract in the Blood Covenant signed with Zuo Qiu, designed for self-protection: neither could attack him, or they would perish from backlash.

In just a few seconds, Red Sleeve’s youthful appearance quickly transford into an old woman with a wrinkled face.

Feeling her life nearing its end, Red Sleeve looked up at Lin Xue.

"Thank you..."

"..."

Lin Xue knew she was being thanked for not stopping her revenge earlier.

Previously, Red Sleeve had been captured by Lin Xue; if not for Lin Xue’s consent, she wouldn’t have had the chance to personally resolve her grievance.

After expressing gratitude to Lin Xue, Red Sleeve moved her aged arm, shakily retrieved a piece of white paper.

With her finger pointing on the paper, energy surged, and a map quietly erged on the white paper.

Red Sleeve lifted the white paper, looked at Mu You: "This is... the hidden location of the Ti Corpse..."

The white paper drifted over, Mu You took a glimpse, the paper held a hand-drawn map with rather rough lines, but the basic directions were marked clearly, should be easy to find.

"I have only one request."

The aged Red Sleeve looked at Mu You: "If you soday master the Ti Divine Power, regardless of what ability you may develop to return to the past, or travel to other parallel realities... In short, if you have the opportunity to et the young and naive , please help wake her up fiercely... Do not let her repeat my tragedy..."

Mu You breathed out a sigh, folded the paper, nodded: "Okay, I promise, within my abilities, I will do my best to help achieve this... But the premise is, there truly is such a chance..."

Red Sleeve smiled with relief, even though she knew the hope for such a thing was slim, almost impossible to achieve, even if it was changed, it wouldn’t be her, but soone else.

Even so, she still hoped to see a version of herself in a parallel world far removed from these disputes, living a mundane life with her husband and child, and that would be enough.

Red Sleeve died, died with a smile of relief.

Under the moonlight’s glow, mother and son lay on the sand facing each other, both lifeless.

At the mont of Red Sleeve’s complete death, a surge of Grim Reaper energy flowed from her body, drilling into Lin Xue.

Lin Xue’s skin phantom of God quickly saw the missing left arm grow out, restored as the full entity of the Grim Reaper.

At the sa ti, together with the Grim Reaper’s power entering Lin Xue, ca two special Divine Powers.

Mind Reading and Obstacle Crossing.

These two abilities were originally gained by Red Sleeve from the Divine Bone and should have dissipated upon her death, because a Divine Bone that had been fused by a human could no longer form into a Divine Bone again.

But Lin Xue, having mastered both Stitching and Grim Reaper’s authority, gained the Stitching Divine Power ability.

Now feeling these two soon-to-be dissipating Divine Powers, she hurriedly stitched them onto two ordinary Divine Bones she had previously fused, thus retaining these two abilities.

Having reaped two Divine Powers and restored the missing inheritance of the Grim Reaper, it should have been a joyous occasion, yet Lin Xue looking at Red Sleeve and her child’s corpse nearby couldn’t smile; instead, felt a faint sadness.

In a sense, she and Red Sleeve were like two sides of a coin, born from the sa source with many similarities, but due to different historial experiences, ultimately walked two distinctly opposite paths.

Lin Xue sighed, stepped forward to pick up the Death God’s Chain dropped by Red Sleeve from the sand.

Yet, upon picking up the chain, she suddenly froze, feeling an anomaly within the chain.

"What? Is she still here?" Mu You saw Lin Xue’s expression, thinking the soul of Red Sleeve hadn’t completely dissipated and so lingered within the chain.

"No..."

Lin Xue shook her head: "It’s rely a remnant of her obsession, it’ll vanish on its own after a while..."

Lin Xue had gained the ability to read minds, capable of discerning the intent of this lingering will: it only wished to follow them as an artifact sprite for a while, hoping to witness the day they fulfill their promise...

"Then let’s go."

Mu You nodded, whistled, and a magic carpet taxi imdiately flew out from the darkness afar, hovering before them.

Before leaving, Mu You took along Red Sleeve and the boy’s corpse.

Zuo Qiu may have made many mistakes over the years, but what he did was indeed imperative for the Fool’s collective, even if virtue offsets achievents, there’s still labor if no rit, currently at least their bodies should be brought back to Earth’s holand for burial.

A week later, the two returned to Earth.

Upon return, Mu You imdiately sought out several Admins through the Karma Lines, informing them of the events on this journey.

This trip seed fruitless, yet Mu You obtained several precious pieces of information from the First Generation Leader, intelligence that could change the Fool’s upcoming strategy against the Divine Devouring Beast.
