Murong Wan heard a familiar voice and struggled to open her eyes.
"You... why are you here too? Isn't this what you wanted to see?"
A mocking smile appeared on her lips, not believing that Cheng Ruonan was remorseful, just regretting not being able to harvest the spiritual energy within her.
"No! I didn't!"
Cheng Ruonan was somewhat agitated, grasping Murong Wan's hand.
"Wan'Er, I admit I wanted to use you to absorb spiritual energy before, but I didn't know the Gathering Spirit Technique would cause so much harm to your body. I never wanted you to die."
Murong Wan lacked the strength to shake off her hand but turned her face away, staring straight at Yang Cheng.
"Yang Cheng, am I dying soon? I'm still so young, not married or with children, I really don't want to die."
Murong Wan let out a bitter smile, and then tears began to fall like beads breaking off a string.
