School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1380: Chapter 1466: Return to the Mortal World

The Demon Emperor of the Divine Mirror pointed at Ye Yiyi and said, ”Chen Nan, heaven sees what people do. The betrayals you inflicted on me shall be repaid upon Ye Yiyi by the heavens.”

”Old witch, don’t be complacent. As long as I’m alive, one day I’ll kill you to vent my anger!” Chen Nan shouted in anger. In fact, he misunderstood the Demon Emperor; although her words were harsh, they were said without any malice.

”Senior brother... brother... brother...”

At this moment, a weak voice came from his embrace. Chen Nan hurriedly looked down at Ye Yiyi.

Blood continuously oozed from Ye Yiyi’s mouth, yet she managed a faint smile on her face, ”To die in your embrace is... is fine. After my death... make sure to bury me at Hua... Huaguo Mountain, where... every inch of land remembers the happy times we once had...”

Before Chen Nan could even respond, his junior sister’s hand slipped from his palm, her eyes closing.

”No, no, I don’t want you to die!”

Suddenly, Chen Nan remembered he still had a bottle of Water of Life.

He obtained it in the Illusion Realm of the Liu family back in the day. Its function is to bring back the dead and restore mortal bodies; it could revive even those who had stopped breathing.

At the thought of this, he quickly took out the Water of Life, dropping three drops onto her wounds and into her mouth. Her wounds began to heal at a pace visible to the naked eye, yet her eyes remained shut, showing no signs of waking.

Minutes passed as Chen Nan called out incessantly, but his junior sister’s eyes remained tightly shut, showing no signs of awakening.

Chen Nan thought perhaps he hadn’t used enough water, so he poured some more into her mouth, but still, there was no response. Eventually, he emptied the entire bottle, yet she remained with eyes closed, devoid of life.

”How can this be!”

Chen Nan held his junior sister tightly, their faces touching; he could feel clearly that her skin had begun to turn cold.

”You’ve risked your life countless times for me, suffered through agonizing pain, but in the end, I was the one who killed you. Rest assured, brother will save you. If it doesn’t work, I’ll accompany you on the road to Huangquan, and never will you be alone again.”

As tears blurred his vision, he caressed her cold cheek.

He silently activated the mental method of the Heavenly Reversal Demon Technique, intending to enhance his strength and employ the method once used to save Shi’er, to defy fate for his junior sister and restore her Life Essence Qi.

However, as he was about to perform the qi movement, the Demon Emperor of the Divine Mirror raised a finger, a streak of white light darting towards him, halting the demon technique.

She advised earnestly, ”If you’re trying to defy fate for her, I urge you to save your efforts. Her internal organs are utterly shattered, and not even the Water of Life can heal them, let alone a reversal of fate.”

”I don’t need your false sympathy!”

Chen Nan glared at her and once more prepared to activate his qi movement, only to be thwarted again by the Demon Emperor.

She stepped forward, releasing a surge of Protective Divine Light which sent Chen Nan flying several meters. After inspecting Ye Yiyi’s wrist, she shook her head, saying to Chen Nan, ”Your bottle of Life Spring Water can preserve her blood from coagulating for ten days. If within ten days there aren’t three Heavenly Lords or a Supreme Expert to rebuild her organs and meridians, she’ll be beyond saving.”

Chen Nan was still somewhat skeptical.

At that moment, a figure flew out from the South City Gate—it was Li Xiao.

Chen Nan rubbed his eyes, wondering if it was an illusion, but upon closer inspection, he realized it was true; Li Xiao had come running into his arms.

”Xiao Xiao, weren’t you harmed by that old witch?” Chen Nan asked, feeling slightly agitated.

Li Xiao glanced back at the Demon Emperor: ”She did harm me at first, but later, she saved me.”

”This...”

Suddenly, Chen Nan seemed to understand something.

Apparently, the Demon Emperor hadn’t been lying all along. Back then outside the city gates, the head held by the old being was likely just a blinding trick.

Reflecting on the actions of the Demon Emperor, Chen Nan gave her another look.

But he remained silent.

Even if he knew he wronged her, if it weren’t for her possessing his junior sister’s body, none of this would have happened, and his junior sister wouldn’t have died by his tang.

Li Xiao then noticed Ye Yiyi lying on the ground: ”What’s... happened to Sister Ye?”

Chen Nan took a deep breath, but didn’t speak.

He picked up Ye Yiyi, gave the Demon Emperor a harsh glare, and turned to leave, saying to Li Xiao, ”Let’s go.”

”Hmph, coming and going as you please. Do you think our Demon Emperor City is a place to enter and leave freely!”

As voices rose, several elderly figures of the Immortal Realm were the first to take flight, blocking Chen Nan and his companions’ path, ready to wield immortal power.

The Demon Emperor frowned, commanding, ”Stop!”

Her eyes held affection as she looked at Chen Nan, though her affection was cold and hurt, and knowing Ye Yiyi’s death further clarified the impossibility between her and Chen Nan. Hesitating for a moment, tears of despair welled up, and she closed her eyes: ”Let them go.”

”But, master...”

The elders began to protest, but the Demon Emperor waved her hand.

”Hoo”

Divine power enveloped all the old figures.

She gently swept her hand, casting the elders back into the city.

The Demon Emperor looked at Chen Nan, then turned her back to him, saying, ”If you don’t leave now, when will you? If we meet again, I won’t show mercy.”

As these words left her lips, tears cascaded down her cheeks.

Without uttering a word, Chen Nan carried his junior sister onto the warship, followed closely by the Black Feathered Chicken and Li Xiao, the ship darting away like lightning, vanishing into the distance.

Only then did the Demon Emperor turn back around.

Gazing in the direction where Chen Nan left, she wiped her eyes and murmured: ”In my life, I’ve succeeded due to my cold arrogance, and failed due to it too.”

The truth was undeniable.

If it weren’t for her cold, arrogant nature, she wouldn’t have achieved her status as the Demon Emperor today.

Similarly, had her nature been gentler, had she been patient without speaking hurtful words to Chen Nan, and instead tried proving the truth, things wouldn’t have reached this point.

”Chen Nan, may we never cross paths again in this life.”

The Divine Mirror drew a deep breath, and in a flash, vanished from the spot, entering the City Lord’s Mansion.

Her cultivation was indeed shockingly advanced.

...

After leaving the Demon Emperor City, Chen Nan steered the warship straight towards the east.

Upon arriving at Aluo Mountain where they had arranged previously, Chen Nan carved a message onto the rock slab: ”I’ve left, Chen Nan.”

A message so cryptic that even if the Demon Clan saw it, they wouldn’t understand its meaning, but those who came with them would instantly realize he had gone back to the Mortal World.

He boarded the warship, accelerating furiously, heading straight for the space passage.

Following the Demon Emperor’s advice, he needed the cooperation of three Heavenly Lords or a Supreme Expert to help his junior sister rebuild her meridians and organs, so he could only return to seek assistance from powerful figures.
