Chapter 681: I Wonʼt Let You Die

The Huang Family gathered Yuan and the other bodyguards shortly after the announcement regarding the Flying Leviathan.

”As you should all know by now, there is a Flying Leviathan heading our way. This is a life-or-death situation for everyone on the ship, so weʼll need to give it our all to defeat the Flying Leviathan together.” Huang Chen said to them.

Everyone there nodded their heads with serious expressions on their faces.

”Anyways, letʼs all head to the deck and see what the captain of this ship has to say to us.”

”Wait.” Yuan suddenly stopped them.

”Whatʼs the matter?”

”I… I need to prepare myself for the Flying Leviathan, so if you donʼt mind, I will stay behind.” Yuan said to them.

Huang Chen nodded, ”Youʼll have two hours to prepare until the Flying Leviathan arrives. Do your best.”

”Father, I will stay here with him.” Huang Xiao Li suddenly said.

Huang Chen raised his eyebrows and pondered for a moment before looking at Yuan. ”Do you mind?” 

Although he wasnʼt sure why his daughter wanted to stay here with Yuan, he didnʼt object to it either.

”I donʼt mind.” Yuan shook his head.

Everyone but Yuan and Huang Xiao Li gathered at the deck of the ship shortly after.

”Do you mind if I use your room?” Yuan asked Huang Xiao Li when they were alone.

”No, go ahead. I was going to ask you to come with me, anyway.”

”Are you trying to go somewhere?”

”Not exactly.”

Once they entered the room, Huang Xiao Li locked the door behind her.

”I am going to cultivate now.” Yuan said as he looked around for a place to sit.

However, he suddenly heard something falling onto the ground.

It was a gentle sound, so whatever dropped just now was light and soft.

Yuan turned around to make sure everything was okay, and his eyes widened with shock when he saw the scene.

”X-Xiao Li…? What are you doing?” Yuan asked her, who had suddenly stripped naked.

Indeed, what had just dropped onto the floor just now were Huang Xiao Liʼs clothes.

”Yuan…” Tears began flowing down Huang Xiao Liʼs face as she spoke, ”I donʼt want to die alone… Before we die… can you make love to me?”

”...” Yuan didnʼt know how to respond and silently stared at her crying face.

”T-That vixen! What is she trying to do to my darling with my face?!” Inside the spectatorsʼ room, Chu Liuxiang became livid when she saw what was happening through the pond.

Even Feng Yuxiang and Min Li were dumbfounded by the situation, as they couldʼve never imagined that such a thing would happen during the trial.

As for Xiao Hua, she couldnʼt comprehend the situation, hence why she was still relatively calm, only feeling mildly puzzled.

Meanwhile, back in the room, Huang Xiao Li continued with her advances on Yuan.

”Please, Yuan… Even though I am a little desperate, I wonʼt do this just with anyone… In fact, my body is still pure…”

Huang Xiao Li slowly approached Yuan before spreading her slender arms and embracing him.

”Letʼs make love to each other while we still can, until we die, okay…?” She whispered to his ears in a painful voice.

Yuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He opened his arms and hugged Huang Xiao Li back.

”Is he really going to do it with her?! But she has my face!” Chu Liuxiang felt the urge to cry when she imagined Yuan sleeping with Huang Xiao Li.

However, it was not because heʼs sleeping with another woman. It was the fact that Huang Xiao Li had her face that devastated Chu Liuxiang.

”Thank you… Yuan…” Huang Xiao Li said to him.

”Iʼm sorry, but I cannot fulfill your request.” Yuan suddenly said, dumbfounding her.

”Eh?” She looked at him with her eyes as wide as saucers.

Yuan stared at her in the eyes and said, ”You wonʼt die alone… because I wonʼt let you die today.”

”B-B-But itʼs a Flying Leviathan! Thereʼs no way we could defeat that monster! Nobody has survived a Leviathanʼs attack before, much less a Flying Leviathan! Itʼs impossible!”

”Trust me, I will defeat it.” Yuan said before picking up Huang Xiao Liʼs clothes and handing them back to her.

Huang Xiao Li silently looked at her clothes for a long moment before lifting her head to look at Yuan.

She eventually nodded and said, ”If I die alone, I will haunt you in your next life so that you will never be able to find a partner, Yuan.”

Yuanʼs body trembled when he heard her words that reminded him of Azure.

”I promise.” He smiled.

He then took a seat on the ground before retrieving a small box from his spatial ring.

After putting her clothes back on, Huang Xiao Li asked him, ”What is that? How is that going to prepare you for the battle?”

Yuan opened the box, revealing a crystal inside.

”Is that a monster core? Youʼre going to cultivate that right now? Itʼs going to take days depending on what kind of monster core it is! We only have two hours before the Flying Leviathan arrives— less than that, actually!” 

Yuan smiled and said, ”Itʼs not a monster core, and it wonʼt take days.”

He opened his mouth and tossed the crystal inside the next moment.

”Wha—?!” Huang Xiao Li was shocked by Yuanʼs actions.

ʼWait… Since itʼs not a monster core, it should be fine…ʼ She quickly calmed down.

Yuan could immediately feel the crystal melting in his mouth, and a bitter and somewhat spicy taste quickly followed.
