The End of the Jade Ring Pool (2)

You Su simply couldn't imagine how superb her acting skills and meticulous mind this ordinary girl possessed.

It can not only deceive powerful beings at the Void Glimpse Realm, but also the hidden soil at the bottom of the lake.

"If that were all, you wouldn't need to play the role of a caged bird constantly trying to please me. Just put me in a dangerous situation, and I will naturally destroy the illusion of the Tibetan land."

You Su raised her doubts.

"If the first wish can't be fulfilled, then it's time to fulfill the second wish."

Yu Die had stopped crying and started laughing. She stood on the edge of the cliff, kicking her feet, and kicked the gravel and dust off the cliff. The strong cliff wind blew them away to unknown places.

"What a pity, it was so close... I originally planned to pretend to be seriously injured by Shenxi after everything was over, and have you take me away to see the outside world one last time. If it weren't for Miss Ji's interference, I'm afraid even someone as cautious as you would have fallen for me and agreed... When we first entered the pool, Miss Ji really disliked you, how did things turn out like this? Is that really the fastest shortcut to a woman's heart?"

With Ji Xueruo's face, Yu Die smiled with natural charm, You Su seemed to be intimidated by her bright beauty, not daring to reply.

The beauty of the Yu Die Saintess was dazzling yet fleeting, like a summer flower that vanishes in an instant.

She suddenly entered your life, regarding you as her most important confidante. She would not only give her life to fulfill your wishes, but also risk everything to save you despite the pressure from Void Glimpse Venerable.

No man could resist her advances, even though You Su had already prepared herself mentally.

She's been restraining herself, not wanting you to bear the responsibility of saving her, only hoping you can leave her with beautiful memories. But if she were to die soon, lying in your arms saying, "What a pity, I haven't seen the outside world yet," how could you not draw your sword, carry her on your back, and escape the world with her?

Without Ji Xueruo, it would have been a completely different romantic story, even though its underlying theme was the conspiracy of a thousand-year-old monster.

But there are no "ifs".

Little White Fish is right; Ji Xueruo is the red thread that binds You Su. You Su doesn't believe in fate, but sometimes you have to admit that some people and some things are just destined.

You Su took another step forward, only ten steps away from Yu Die, a distance that a Sword Cultivator could cover in an instant.

He drew his sword and stood still; the sword was darker than the night.

"So, can you give Miss Ji back to me now?"

"I love you so much, yet you don't love me, and you even want to take my rival away from me. Do you think I'll let you have your way?"

Ji Xueruo raised her eyebrows slightly, appearing as proud as if she had returned to her true self.

"There was once an evil spirit that possessed my junior sister's body. Her schemes were just as terrifying, but I still managed to bring her back. If you don't believe me, you can try me."

You Su had already drawn his sword, poised to strike.

"If I'm not mistaken, they're sisters, aren't they? Miss Ji's personality probably wouldn't allow you to be so greedy, would it? Once the truth comes out, there will likely be a bloody storm. Rather than being unable to have them, why don't you let me take over this body? I'll appease your junior sister for you, and from then on, you can enjoy the blessings of having two women. I'm quite generous; I can even help you find a few more peerless immortal women."

"I'm blind. I don't love her appearance, I love her as a person." You Su sighed, bent down, and said in a deep voice, "I'll ask you one last question: what do you want from me to let her go?"

With her back to the cliff, Yu Die spread her arms wide, her voice louder than ever before, so loud that even the wind couldn't dissipate it:

"What else can I do? Zangtu is dead, and without its divine source to sustain me, I am doomed. The only way to survive is to possess one of my familiars. Miss Ji and Xiao Yu are the most suitable to be familiars. In order to avenge Turbid Dragon and Empty Nightmare, of course I will choose Miss Ji."

"Then I won't let you live!"

You Su took a decisive step forward, his sword swirling like a raging dragon, the immense sword intent almost shattering the stone cliff beneath his feet!

However, the sword failed to pierce Ji Xueruo, who had become a member of the Hidden Water Clan. Several pure white spirit snakes bit the hilt of the Ink Pine Sword, leaving the sword tip hovering an inch in front of Ji Xueruo's chest.

Yu Die glanced at You Su as if she had expected this. She smiled dismissively, completely ignoring the bluffing sword intent before her. This insightful girl said confidently:

"You wouldn't have the heart to kill her."

The wind is unusually noisy tonight, as if heaven and earth know that the turmoil at Jade Ring Pool has not yet subsided. The biting night wind sweeps across the Jade Ring-shaped mountains, playing a mournful long cry in this naturally formed basin.

Yu Die still had her arms outstretched, her white skirt sleeves billowing, making her look like a pure white butterfly.

"If you want to save her, then come and save her."

She lay down with her back to the cliff without any fear, her body falling like a bird.

Without the slightest hesitation, You Su swung his sword and severed the white snake, then leaped off the steep cliff with unwavering determination in his eyes.

Yu Die recalled the experience of falling while embracing You Su last time; the feeling of flying fascinated her.

She removed the dragon bones, which turned into the earth, and could no longer take flight. In return, she received the love she desired, but was forever trapped in love.

Tears lingered in the air from the previous moment. Looking back, all the love and hate, joy and pain seemed less important than the freedom to soar freely in this moment.

That familiar, strong arm wrapped around her waist, and she rested her head against You Su's chest, gazing up at You Su's face.

"I'm inside her body, so are you here to save her or me?"

"Her." You Su said decisively.

Yu Die reached out and You Su's chin, her smile as sorrowful as autumn water:

"As expected... In this world, only Zangtu truly loves me. How can I leave him? But if I die, what will become of those enemies...?"

You Su remained silent.

Yu Die's beautiful eyes sparkled. "Young Master You, you are the true sage who vanquishes evil! I know you are a man of your word! Promise me that you will kill Turbid Dragon and Empty Nightmare for me! Then I will return Miss Ji to you!"

"I..."

The Ink Pine Sword flashed brightly on the mountain wall, illuminating You Su's face in a half-light, half-shadow.

I promise you.

Yu Die laughed again, this time her laughter was so loud it made her body tremble:

"You're so stupid! There's no way I could turn Ji Xueruo into my familiar right now! Otherwise, why would I be waiting for you here?"

"You are God! She has long been your companion! But you must keep your promise! As compensation, I have prepared a gift for you! Your story will be more romantic than anything I could have made up!"

They were falling rapidly, the wind was howling, so Yu Die had to shout these words out.

As soon as she finished speaking, the already brightly lit Jade Ring Pool suddenly became even more dazzling, with countless Sky Lantern rising from every corner of the Jade Ring Pool, like rising stars filling the sky.

"Sky Lantern are also called Wish Lantern! I made a new Wish Lantern for each of my people! On it are all the wishes I made for them! Although Jade Ring Pool is already dilapidated, I believe that even without me and Zangtu, our home will still be the most beautiful place in the world!"

Yu Die shouted excitedly, her eyes like the most dazzling gems in the world.

She once made a Sky Lantern for herself, but it could not fly out of this pond, just like her own fate. The thousand Sky Lantern she made for the Jade Clan all turned into the countless stars in the sky as she wished.

Unable to contain her joy any longer, she raised her head and kissed You Su's lips.

You Su froze in astonishment, then brazenly seized it.

He knew that the woman in his arms was no longer Yu Die, but Ji Xueruo.
