Don't mess with the little apprentice sister! She is greedy and immoral

The runes in the air paused.

Qin Zhen knew that Fairy Li Yun had heard what she said, so she quickly said, "I am willing to sacrifice my life for the tripod, turn into a spirit, and repair it. If I fail, you can take the last step!"

"You are not afraid of death?"

"I'm just afraid of dying in vain."

We're going to die anyway, so why not give it a try?

This time, she decides her own destiny.

"Besides, I am also a monk."

It is the responsibility of every cultivator to eliminate demons, defend the way, and protect the people.

Every cultivator made such a vow when he joined the sect.

The purpose is to ensure that no matter what path they take in the future, they will not deviate from their original intentions.

Qin Zhen stopped talking, but her eyes became more determined.

She took a deep breath and jumped into the flames burning in the cauldron.

But who would have thought that at this moment, a figure appeared faster than her.

The figure was like mist, without any human form, but he was determined and resolute.

Most of the white mist was instantly engulfed by the golden flames.

"Fairy Li Yun!"

The white mist shook twice, as if it would be completely burned by the flames in the next second.

But the rune floating in the air suddenly flashed with light and fell around the flame, forming a new rune array.

The golden flames suddenly stabilized, and then the white clouds expanded instantly, and then gradually, bit by bit, were dyed with a faint golden light.

"Qin Zhen." Fairy Li Yun's voice finally sounded again in Qin Zhen's mind.

Because it was a transmission of sound and they were not in the same body, the sound was not as real as before.

This was the first time she called out Qin Zhen's name so solemnly.

"I'm here." Qin Zhen suddenly realized something.

Fairy Li Yun smiled when she heard this.

She seldom smiled, especially after she lost her memory and her soul was damaged, not to mention that she later became possessed by the evil energy of the Sky Demon Clan and had nothing in her heart except the desire to kill.

Nothing could make her happy, nothing could make him happy.

Until Xiao Yan appeared, she had changed slightly, but she never showed any tenderness towards him.

But now she smiled, a free and relieved smile.

"I am also a monk."

Qin Zhen opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.

"Please tell Xiao Yan that I'm sorry. I probably...can't go home with him."

She no longer had a physical body, and she sacrificed her soul to the cauldron, so she could never become the spirit of the cauldron. She would only turn into ashes and never be reincarnated.

She will not have an afterlife, and will even have to feel the pain of her soul being torn apart bit by bit.

"……it is good."

"Also, thank you, thank you for allowing me to become a monk again."

She had been lost for too long and finally found her way again.

Almost at the moment when Fairy Li Yun finished speaking, the mist that gradually turned golden instantly surrounded the entire cauldron.

The cracks on the cauldron slowly disappeared, and the evil spirit that had overflowed was all forced back into the cauldron.

When the golden mist completely disappeared, the cauldron finally returned to its original state and became even more solid than before.

The wailing sounds of the Sky Demon Clan were heard again, but the aura belonging to Fairy Li Yun was getting weaker and weaker.

Qin Zhen took a deep breath and finally said softly, "I'm sorry."

As she finished speaking, she poured all the remaining spiritual power into the fire spirit root in her body. The flames burning under the cauldron became more and more intense, and the flames were almost about to envelop the entire cauldron.

The wails, cries for help, and curses of the demon clan continuously emanated from the cauldron.

finally--

Finally, peace came.

And the big tripod seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, and broke into several pieces with a "crack".

Qin Zhen no longer had any strength left and knelt down beside the cauldron.

Her face was as pale as paper, and the simple movement of raising her hand was trembling, and she used all her strength.

She gathered the broken cauldron together again and again.

But the breath of the old friend had disappeared long ago, and along with it, the people of the Heavenly Demon Clan also disappeared.

The secret realm began to collapse.

The sky collapsed and the earth broke apart.

The sealing barrier above the secret realm seemed to be loosening slightly.

The long-awaited thunder finally arrived.

"boom--"

Purple-gold lightning flashed from the sky and struck straight towards Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen wanted to dodge, but she didn't have the strength to do so. She could only watch the thunder coming down and prepare to take it.

And she didn't know if it was because she had overused her fire spirit root, but when the thunder fell, she was unable to absorb it like she did last time.

pain.

It was as if my internal organs had shifted, and even my bones felt numb at this moment.

Scarlet blood flowed down his eyes, mouth, nose, and ears, and even his soul was shaking.

If it weren't for the protection of the thousand-year-old shark silk clothes and the phoenix wood hairpin on her body, Qin Zhen would have died under the thunder.

"boom--"

Another bolt of lightning struck, even stronger than the previous one.

Qin Zhen was in so much pain that her consciousness was almost fading. She was about to close her eyes and fall into a deep sleep, but she was thinking about the last thing Fairy Li Yun had told her, so she held on and refused to faint.

"boom."

"boom."

Qin Zhen kept hitting the ground with her head, and because she used too much force, her head was bleeding after just two hits.

can not sleep.

She couldn't sleep yet.

She still had something to say.

There is another person, waiting for another person to come home.

"boom."

After another heavy knock, the intense pain finally made Qin Zhen sober up a little. She struggled to take the big tripod into her arms and crawled towards where Xiao Yan was sleeping.

One meter, two meters...ten meters.

Qin Zhen's palms had been completely worn out, and blood was rolling down her body, covering it, leaving long bloody trails.

"boom!"

The last bolt of thunder suddenly appeared in the sky.

It came with even greater force, and even the lightning it emitted was enough to illuminate the entire secret realm.

Qin Zhen smiled bitterly upon seeing this, knowing that it would be difficult to withstand this last bolt of thunder. She used up her last bit of strength to put up a defensive shield.

But, it’s too fast!

That thunder was really too fast.

It was so fast that Qin Zhen couldn't even catch when it fell.

"clang!"

Before Qin Zhen put up the defensive shield, the fragment of the large tripod that she had held so cherished in her arms suddenly flew into the air and slightly blocked the thunder for her.

The thunder tribulation was weakened by the big cauldron, and Qin Zhen's defensive barrier had also been opened, and he finally withstood the attack.

But the shattered cauldron turned into powder at this moment.

"...Thank you." Qin Zhen never thought that the person who would help her in the end would be Fairy Li Yun.

After so many words to say, she could only utter the simplest but most sincere thank you.

She collected the powder from the cauldron into the Qiankun Ring, for she was afraid that it would disappear in the wind.

But how could she return the broken Fairy Li Yun to Xiao Yan?
