245: Chapter 245 She's become a yandere too!

Just as she was about to close her eyes and sink into eternal sleep,

a pair of familiar hands...

tightly embraced her swaying, delicate body from behind.

"Sister!"

"Sister Bai."

"Don't sleep! Please, don't go to sleep!"

A familiar and piercing cry erupted in her ears, making Bai Suzhen's eardrums ache.

She turned her head with difficulty.

She saw Xiao Qing, her face covered in snot and tears, crying without any regard for her appearance.

Xiao Qing acted as if she had gone mad, recklessly pouring her own Transcendence Realm cultivation into Bai Suzhen's body.

Desperately clinging to that faint, flickering thread of life.

"Xiao Qing... don't waste your energy..."

Bai Suzhen gave a weak smile.

"I know my own body."

"I'm beyond saving."

"Let me go, let me go see him..."

"No, Sister, I won't let you go."

"Think about Young Master Su!"

"Sister, he's not dead! Young Master Su has returned!"

Xiao Qing wailed and shouted incoherently, a snot bubble almost forming at her nose.

"I found him! I heard news!"

"A few days ago, at the Heroic Spirit Contract Ceremony in Jinguan City, Young Master Su appeared."

"It was only because those fake White Snake Cultists attacked him that he came to our attention!"

"He's that Xiao Yan, the one at the top of the leaderboard! He's appeared in the flesh!"

"That face, that familiar aura, and at the end of the Heroic Spirit Contract Ceremony, he personally revealed the name 'Su Chen'!"

"You... what did you say?"

Lady Bai, who already had one foot in the grave and was prepared to depart peacefully,

suddenly stiffened.

In her dim, beautiful eyes, a terrifying burst of life suddenly erupted, like a final flare of a dying flame.

Her previously limp upper body jerked upright, nearly smacking Xiao Qing in the face with her chest.

"He's not dead?"

"Where is he now?!"

Bai Suzhen's voice instantly rose an octave, showing no trace of her previous weakness.

"He... he..."

Xiao Qing sobbed, her breath hitching.

Her eyes darted away, seemingly afraid to speak.

"It's my fault. I clearly had a chance to catch him, but I let him get away."

Bai Suzhen was fuming with rage.

But then she remembered that her sister also harbored inappropriate feelings for Su Chen; if given the chance, she certainly wouldn't have wanted to let him go either. This thought calmed her down slightly.

"Speak!"

"Where could he be now? I'm going to find him!"

In her urgency, Bai Suzhen grabbed Xiao Qing's wrist with startling strength.

"Sister, listen to me..."

"Young Master Su... he... he seems to be a scumbag..."

"He seems to have many past lives, and these lives are scattered across different small worlds."

"Besides the two of us..."

"he has many other fleeting romances."

"At the ceremony, he... he reunited with the West China Hall Master Zhuge Jinyu, the North China Hall Master Ye Jingjun, and a sea demon named Cang Mingyue..."

"They recognized each other..."

Xiao Qing braced herself and spilled all the gossip she had gathered.

"Supposedly... supposedly the three of them almost started a fight right then and there in the white mist over Young Master Su."

"Now that a major incident has occurred in the East Sea, those three women have all rushed there to suppress the monsters."

"I suspect... if Young Master Su is in danger or wants to help them, he must have gone to the East Sea as well!"

"..."

"Sister Bai, if you don't believe me, you can use the Soul-Searching Technique Young Master Su taught you back then on the corpses of those imposters nearby who haven't completely died yet."

"They were also there at the Heroic Spirit Contract Ceremony trying to assassinate Young Master Su, so they should have memories related to him."

After hearing Xiao Qing's words,

a deathly silence fell over the shores of West Lake.

Only the sound of the wind and the backflow of the river remained.

Bai Suzhen stood dazed in place, still gripping Xiao Qing's wrist.

What do you mean, I risked my life just to see my husband one last time before I die...

...only for you to turn around and tell me that the young master who seemed so devoted back then...

...has actually slept with all the Transcendent Heroic Spirits in Great Xia?

So I'm just a backup?

Zhuge Jinyu?

That Female Prime Minister of Great Qian?

Ye Jingjun?

That cold Crimson Phoenix Sword Immortal?

Cang Mingyue?!

That sea demon from Wangchen Temple whose fish tail hasn't even fully disappeared?!

And they almost fought over him?!

Trembling slightly, Bai Suzhen looked down at her own assets.

Huge chest, long legs.

Her "cards" were fine.

Zhuge Jinyu? Are her legs as long as mine?

Ye Jingjun? Her figure is decent, but that tomboy only has swords on her mind. How could she possibly compare to the enchanting charm of Lady Bai?

As for Cang Mingyue...

...though her "cards" aren't bad, among this group of Transcendent Heroic Spirits, she's no different from a child.

And yet...

"Pfft—!"

Lady Bai, who just a moment ago had been filled with emotion and tragic beauty, ready to die amidst her memories,

was so furious that her chest heaved violently, and she spat out another mouthful of blood.

Only this time, it definitely wasn't due to the backlash of her injuries.

It was out of pure rage!

"Fine... well played, Young Master Su!"

"For him, I have kept a lonely vigil in the mortal realm for a thousand years, carrying on his will, while the erosion of incense has exhausted my lifespan."

"And now, I've even thrown away my life just to see him one more time..."

"But look at him!"

"Not only did he have a nice reincarnation, but he's out there flirting with everyone."

"He actually found... three others behind my back?!"

Bai Suzhen trembled all over with rage.

A flush of red actually rose to her sickly pale face.

If that Ga-La-Gei-Mu expert Xiao Chenzi were here,

he would surely shout:

"Oh no!"

"She's become a yandere!"

She suddenly pushed away Xiao Qing's support.

"Help me up!"

"Sister, your... your body... where else are you going?"

Xiao Qing was terrified and asked stutteringly.

Bai Suzhen didn't answer. She stood up and walked over to the corpses of the fake White Snake Cultists she had slain.

She waved her delicate hand.

"Let me see if what my sister said is true or not..."

A white orb rose from a corpse; it was the Soul-Searching Technique Su Chen had taught them.

As she viewed the memories of the fake White Snake Cultists, the expression on Bai Suzhen's pretty face shifted several times.

From wild joy to anger, then to jealousy, and finally to solemnity.

"So that's how it is..."

"You fake White Snake Cultists certainly have some nerve, daring to attack my man..."

After finishing with the memories, Bai Suzhen gritted her teeth until they creaked. With a casual wave, the corpses of all the fake White Snake Cult followers turned into ash.

She stood, leaning on her sword with difficulty yet unwavering determination, her beautiful eyes fixed on the distant east.

There,

dark clouds pressed down, and thunder danced wildly.

The terrifying Heavenly Tribulation and the aura of monsters were nearly overturning the entire East Sea.

Looking at that apocalyptic scene, she suddenly laughed out of sheer anger.

Her laughter carried a trace of indescribable bitterness and grievance.
