Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The torture of illness and the lack of food brought about hunger and coldness. Chen Jie was already on the verge of death.

Su Yun turned to look at Chen Jie, but the moment she saw Su Yun’s eyes, Chen Jie was shocked.

These eyes were no longer warm. Instead, they were as sharp and cold as a cold pool. However, this cold pool was a pool of stagnant water. There was actually no ripple at all. There was only a kind of disregard for everything and life.

Even though Su Yun still squeezed out a smile to comfort Chen Jie, Chen Jie could still sense that there seemed to be a subtle change in Su Yun.

He seemed to be… sick.

“Chen Jie, don’t worry. We’ll definitely get out. Hang in there!”

There was no fatigue in Su Yun’s voice. Instead, there was a sickly excitement. Chen Jie looked at Su Yun for a long time. She was clearly in pain, but she still smiled and shook her head. “Su Yun, if this is the predestined outcome, at least I can happily accept it.”

Chen Jie’s eyes were filled with emotions that she did not express. The gentleness in her eyes silently expressed her thoughts. However, Su Yun quickly shook his head. “No. We will definitely leave this place. You won’t die here either!”

Looking at Su Yun, Chen Jie’s eyes were filled with worry. That special feeling became stronger and stronger, making Chen Jie feel that Su Yun seemed to have undergone an indescribable change.

Just as Chen Jie was about to say something, her body suddenly went limp and she fell. Thankfully, Su Yun was quick to react and helped Chen Jie. Chen Jie also fell into Su Yun’s arms. Their eyes met, and Chen Jie smiled weakly. There was actually a hint of relief in this smile. “This is already very good.”

Feeling the warmth in Su Yun’s arms, Chen Jie fainted again. Su Yun hugged Chen Jie for a long time without saying a word. Only the emotions in his eyes explained the pain in Su Yun’s heart.

No! It must not be like this!

No! They must leave this place!

Su Yun gritted his teeth and gently placed Chen Jie in the tent. Then, he carried the wooden saber and walked forward step by step. The light of the bonfire shone on Su Yun, but the other half of Su Yun’s body was in the darkness that the bonfire could not illuminate.

Furthermore, as he continued walking forward, the darkness on his body gradually devoured the light brought by the bonfire.

On the ruins of Cangluan Mountain, after more than half a month of search and rescue, this day still came. In the commander’s office, Feng Shaoyu held a paper report from his superior with trembling hands. His face was filled with sorrow. “Why? Why can’t you hold on a little longer?”

Feng Shaoyu looked at Zhao Gang, who had handed him the document, in pain.

His emotions were also a little abnormal. Zhao Gang sighed deeply and patted Feng Shaoyu’s shoulder. “Commander Feng, you’ve already fallen into obsession. The superior’s instructions were actually correct. We both know that more than half a month has passed, and the search and rescue is no longer meaningful. Although we are very unwilling to accept this outcome, it’s impossible for Su Yun to survive.”

“Why not!” Professor Cai, who had been silent, stood up excitedly and looked at Zhao Gang. “If he’s alive, I want to see him. If he’s dead, I want to see his corpse. You know what Su Yun did, and you know why he ended up in such a state. If we retreat just like that, won’t we be letting him down!?”

Looking at the agitated Professor Cai, Zhao Gang sighed helplessly and shook his head as he walked out of the command room. However, after Zhao Gang left, Professor Cai seemed to have lost all his strength and slumped into a chair.

When he looked up again, his eyes were filled with tears. In fact, everyone has been the same these few days. They clearly knew that after more than half a month, it was almost impossible for Su Yun to still be alive.

No one was willing to accept this matter. They gritted their teeth and endured it, hoping that the so-called miracle would appear. But now, a document from their superiors had broken their expectations and forced them to face reality.

Search and rescue teams began to gradually gather on the ruins. They had already received orders to go back from where they came.

“Dad! Why?! We haven’t found Su Yun yet. Why did you give up?!” Xu Jiajia looked for the lonely Xu Kui crazily and questioned him one by one. In her arms was the white monkey that had been following Su Yun.

As Su Yun and the white monkey were not together when the tomb collapsed, when danger descended, the white monkey’s first thought was to look for Su Yun. However, a large area of the tomb path collapsed, leaving the white monkey with no way out. Fortunately, it was small and very agile, and it still escaped at the last moment.

The white monkey did not leave after escaping. Instead, it constantly looked around for Su Yun. It had been staying near the ruins, but because it was afraid of others, it had no choice but to hide. Until it was discovered by Xu Jiajia.

After discovering the white monkey, Xu Jiajia was delighted. She knew that the white monkey had always been inseparable from Su Yun. Now that the white monkey was safe and sound, didn’t that mean that Su Yun should be nearby?

However, reality was ultimately cruel. Xu Jiajia searched for a long time but still did not find Su Yun. Unable to bear to see the white monkey wandering alone, Xu Jiajia brought it along..
