The moment this thought crossed her mind, Su Yanke's expression darkened immediately. She snapped sternly, "Xiaobao, get out of this room right now!"
"Sister, let me stay with you. We'll leave together, and we won't feel lonely."
Xiaobao stepped forward, put his arms around Su Yanke's neck, and whispered softly in her ear.
Su Yanke was about to say something more when her movement suddenly halted. Xiaobao, who was just beside her ear, somehow changed his position. His lips landed right on hers. Su Yanke's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. Xiaobao had just kissed her!?
Su Yanke had never thought that Xiaobao would have such feelings for her, so she was a bit slow to react.
It wasn't until a slippery object entered her mouth that Su Yanke suddenly woke up. She pushed Xiaobao away forcefully.
Previously, seeing that Su Yanke didn't respond, Xiaobao thought she liked him too. Naturally, he was extremely excited and took the courage to deepen the kiss. But he was suddenly pushed, and he staggered before regaining his balance. He looked at Su Yanke pitifully.
Su Yanke was so angry that she had a lot to say, but when she saw that look in his eyes, she suddenly couldn't say a word.
After a moment of silence, Su Yanke's body was almost buried up to her neck. She knew that time was running out, and she didn't want to waste any more time talking nonsense to Xiaobao. So she said,
"Xiaobao, listen. After I disappear, take these stones and explain it to them. These stones can release cold air, making people unable to move in their sleep. If a person stays in the cold for too long, they will have an illusion that their body becomes warm, and they will unconsciously show a smile in this illusion. That's why every human skin has a smile on it."
"As for why people suddenly turn into human skins, I guess someone has tampered with it, allowing these stones to absorb the energy from people's bodies to enhance their own energy. This matter must be taken seriously. There must be a huge conspiracy behind it. Xiaobao, you must be especially careful, okay? Sister can't protect you anymore. You have to learn to protect yourself, okay?"
Su Yanke wanted to say more, but there was no time. She was about to disappear...
At the last moment when Su Yanke was about to be swallowed by the black hole, Xiaobao moved.
Su Yanke's waist was suddenly grabbed. She stiffened all over and looked at Xiaobao in disbelief.
"Are you crazy! What are you doing in here?"
"Sister, don't leave me. Xiaobao likes you, really really like you!"
Su Yanke's anger was held back by Xiaobao's words.
After a moment of silence, Su Yanke reached out and gently hugged Xiaobao. Xiaobao's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, but only for a moment.
"Sister, don't leave me!"
Su Yanke transferred the last bit of spiritual energy in her body to Xiaobao. With this spiritual energy, she sent Xiaobao out.
"Xiaobao, be obedient and live a good life! Uncle Lao Ji and Aunt Li are still waiting for you to start a family and make a career! Goodbye forever, Xiaobao!"
No one noticed that when Su Yanke finished saying these words, the totem on Xiaobao's back began to emerge. Just as Su Yanke transferred her spiritual energy, a faint purple aura that was hardly noticeable if you didn't look carefully floated away from Xiaobao's body and disappeared into the depths of the black hole.
"No!"
"No!!"
"Sister!!"
Su Yanke frowned. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but Xiaobao's eyes seemed to be red just now?
Su Yanke wanted to recall the scene just now more carefully, but her head was extremely heavy. Finally, she fell into a deep sleep.
Xiaobao was sent out by a white mist. Su Yanke, who had been swallowed by the black hole, had disappeared. Just as Xiaobao was about to go in again, the black hole began to shrink. It disappeared just as Xiaobao was about to touch it.
At the same moment when the black hole disappeared, the purple copper coins that Su Yanke had found on those human skins also cracked, and their color became dull.
But Xiaobao didn't care about any of this. His outstretched hand was still in the air. It slowly fell back to his side bit by bit and clenched into a fist. The force was so great that you could clearly hear the sound of bones being compressed.
"Sister, you still left me. Am I so disgusting to you?"
"No!" Xiaobao raised his head. His pair of bright red eyes looked at the cracked purple copper coins and said, "Even if you left me, I will find you. Then... break your legs and lock you up. You will never be able to leave me again, never again..."
Xiaobao's voice became softer and softer at the end. No one saw the hidden tears that dropped to the ground and quickly disappeared.
At this moment, in another place, in an attic, a man in a low - key but luxurious long robe was about to take a sip of the fine tea he had just lifted with his fair - as - jade hand when he suddenly stopped. He looked up at a place in the Yunmo Academy not far away. His dark green pupils were full of shock. He didn't even notice the hot tea that spilled on his hand.
"How could this be... This is impossible. Liu Shichen, you said there wouldn't be any problems. What's going on? Tell me!"
Qiu Xu roared at the man in front of him.
The man was dressed in a simple white robe, and his hair was neatly combed up. The shock in his eyes was no less than Qiu Xu's.
Doctor Liu was shocked and scared. He blurted out what was in his heart.
"No, it's impossible! I tested it before. It's impossible to cause a time - space rift. What have I done!"
Doctor Liu suddenly hugged his head and looked a bit dazed.
Seeing Doctor Liu's collapsed appearance, Qiu Xu's heart completely sank. He turned around and stared blankly at the direction of the Yunmo Academy.
Qiu Xu and Doctor Liu had known each other before. They were both from the capital, and they were ordered by the emperor to look for the inheritor of the Heavenly Stone here.
At that time, Doctor Liu saw that Su Yanke recognized the fragments of the Heavenly Stone and suspected that she was the inheritor. He cooperated with Qiu Xu. Qiu Xu saw that in the hot - pot restaurant, Su Yanke, a weak - looking woman, easily knocked down more than a dozen young men. This made Qiu Xu even more certain that Su Yanke was the inheritor of the Heavenly Stone.
So they designed the human - skin case, just to see how Su Yanke would operate the Heavenly Stone so that they could copy it. But they didn't expect that it would cause a time - space rift and kill Su Yanke.
The time - space rift was extremely dangerous. The national teacher had also predicted that almost no one could survive in it.
I don't know how much time had passed. Su Yanke was awakened to a partial consciousness by a familiar voice, but only a partial one. Soon the voice in Su Yanke's ear gradually disappeared.
Yuan Hexiao was wearing a low - key but luxurious black suit. The suit was a bit wrinkled, indicating that he had been wearing it for a long time. His hair was a bit messy, and there was a lot of stubble on his face. He looked extremely dejected.
"Master Yuan, you should take a rest. You've been staying up late for a whole week, sleeping less than three hours a day. You'll wear yourself out like this. Sister Yanke will feel heart - broken if she sees you like this."
Fu Huayan didn't react at all when he heard the person talking at first. It wasn't until he heard something related to Su Yanke that his expression changed slightly. But when he heard the content, he returned to his calm state. His eyes were like a stagnant pool of water, lifeless.
Yuan Hexiao's eyes were full of bloodshot, but he still couldn't close them to rest for a while because he was afraid.
"A Yan, A Yan, where are you? Don't you want me anymore?"
The moment this thought crossed his mind, Yuan Hexiao's head suddenly ached as if it was being torn apart. He pressed his temples to relieve the pain, but it was of no use.
A burst of heat suddenly came from Yuan Hexiao's back. No one knew that a totem exactly like Xiaobao's suddenly appeared and disappeared on Yuan Hexiao's back.
The figure of Su Yanke suddenly appeared in Yuan Hexiao's mind. He froze all over. He seemed to completely ignore the pain. He just maintained that position and didn't dare to move at all, for fear that Su Yanke's figure would disappear if he moved.
As he was looking, Yuan Hexiao suddenly frowned. He seemed to have seen this place before?
Yuan Hexiao quickly recalled the places he had seen while searching around in the past few days. Suddenly, his breath caught. He remembered. It was in the backyard of the clan chief's house!
Almost the next second, Yuan Hexiao rushed out like an arrow from a bow. He didn't even have time to go through the main gate and directly jumped over the wall.
When Yuan Hexiao just arrived in the yard, he froze. He saw the person he had been longing for!
Su Yanke was still wearing the light blue long dress she had worn in that time - space. She was now floating in the light purple light, and it seemed that the purple light was emitted from her hands.
Yuan Hexiao carefully hugged Su Yanke in his arms. His hands were still a bit trembling, and he didn't dare to use any strength at all, for fear that Su Yanke would disappear if he used a bit too much.
Yuan Hexiao greedily looked at Su Yanke's face and didn't even dare to blink. Su Yanke was back. His little baby was back!
Yuan Hexiao's strange behavior naturally caught the attention of others, but they didn't have Yuan Hexiao's physical strength and could only be left far behind by him. When they arrived at the clan chief's house, they saw a scene that they would never forget.
Their most powerful, strongest, and most respected Master Yuan was crying!
And he was crying while holding a woman?
Wait, a woman?
"Sister Yanke! It's Sister Yanke. Sister Yanke has been found!"
The scene immediately became noisy. Some people went to inform others, and some went to find a doctor. It was in a complete mess. In contrast, the picture of Yuan Hexiao holding Su Yanke was as beautiful as a static oil painting, out of tune with this secular world.
Agent Liu, Chen Maohua, Lu Xingmi, Zhao Xianrou, and Hou Yuheng all rushed over.
