Collapse Iron: My Past Life Revealed, I Was Everyone's White Moonlight

Chapter 154 My destiny is...

Lu Li spoke slowly.

"I promised her I would take good care of you."

"Who?" Jingliu asked instinctively.

Lu Li smiled.

"A... silly girl who loves to laugh and make a fuss, like a little sun."

Jingliu's body jolted violently.

She knew who he was talking about.

...Bai Heng.

"Lu Li..." Jing Liu's voice trembled slightly.

The blood at the corner of Lu Li's mouth was so glaring in her eyes.

"Don't cry." Lu Li smiled. "You look better when you smile."

"Don't worry, leave everything to me."

"I'll help you seal them up..."

next moment.

Jing Liu could clearly feel a warm and powerful force continuously flowing into her body from Lu Li's body.

That power was like a ray of warm sunshine, instantly dispelling most of the darkness and madness in her heart.

The same applies.

A seal formed within her body, slowly "closing" the remaining darkness.

The demonic energy emanating from her body began to dissipate at a visible rate, and the eerie patterns on her face gradually faded away.

"What...did you do?"

Jingliu's voice regained a sliver of clarity, but it was still hoarse.

"It's nothing." Lu Li smiled, but his face grew even paler.

"I just... removed some things that shouldn't be there for you... and added some seals along the way."

It's just a pity that the time he had to acquire that ability was too short.

He is not yet able to completely eliminate all the demonic energy from Jingliu's body in a short period of time.

Moreover, that ability had some side effects on him... but in his current state, those side effects are nothing.

Just then.

Jing Liu suddenly noticed that Lu Li's body was beginning to become transparent.

She felt the heat surging into her body from Lu Li's body.

Jingliu seemed to realize something and instantly tried to loosen his grip on the sword hilt to escape Lu Li's hand.

But Lu Li held her hand tightly, preventing her from moving.

"No, don't..."

Jingliu looked at Lu Li in front of him, shaking his head, tears streaming down his face.

"Didn't I already say that?"

Lu Li smiled, his smile still as gentle as ever.

"How can a master let his disciple surpass him?"

Jingliu was stunned.

next moment.

Tears streamed uncontrollably down her once clear eyes.

fraud.

You big liar.

You are clearly... about to die.

She could sense that Lu Li's life force was fading away at an alarming rate.

Although I don't know what method was used.

But it's clear... Lu Li is using the last of his life to awaken himself.

Why...?

Jingliu's voice was filled with endless sorrow and confusion.

"Why do you have to do this...?"

"For no reason."

Lu Li shook his head, blood continuously gushing from the corner of his mouth.

He gently pressed his forehead against Jingliu's forehead.

"I just feel..."

"You don't look good when you cry."

"No...no..."

She looked at the sword in Lu Li's chest, feeling his increasingly weak breath, her eyes filled with endless fear and regret.

"No...no!"

Jingliu tried to draw her sword in terror, but Lu Li held her hand tightly.

"Look at me, Jingliu." Lu Li's face grew paler and paler.

But the smile on his face grew brighter and brighter.

"Your destiny is to fall into demonic darkness and annihilate everything."

"And my destiny..."

"I've come here to sever your destiny."

"No...don't..."

Jingliu held the broken hand weakly, and tears once again welled up uncontrollably in her eyes.

"Lu Li... Bai Heng has already left me... Please..."

"Don't... leave me too..."

"Please...don't die..."

She finally regained her voice, but it was filled with desperate pleas.

"fool……"

Lu Li looked at her and smiled helplessly.

That smile was still so gentle.

So...heartbreaking.

"Listen to me, I don't have much time left. Do one last thing for me," Lu Li whispered in Jing Liu's ear, "Find me a..."

Jingliu didn't answer, but just gripped the hilt of his sword and kept crying.

Looking at Jing Liu, who was crying incessantly, a hint of helplessness flashed in Lu Li's eyes.

I guess I'm the first person in the world to see Jingliu cry like this.

I wanted to watch it a little longer.

Unfortunately... his time is running out.

With his last bit of strength, Lu Li stepped forward and embraced Jing Liu.

Jingliu's body stiffened for a moment, but quickly went limp again.

Looking in the mirror, tears streaming down her face, she looked up at herself.

A smile appeared on Lu Li's face. With his last bit of strength, he raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face.

"Don't cry."

"This was my own choice, I don't blame you."

"I'm just... going to a very far place to buy you your favorite wine."

"However, this time... it might take a little longer..."

"besides……"

Lu Li whispered softly in Jing Liu's ear.

next moment.

The man's body in her arms collapsed with a crash, turning into golden stardust that dissipated completely into the ruins with the raging wind.

Only a long, black sword remained, lying silently on the ground.

click-

As Lu Li disappeared.

The fragment in Jingliu's hand... shattered.

Like—her heart.

"No, no!"

"Lu Li! No!"

The instant I realized it.

Mirror let out a mournful cry and reached out desperately to grab those points of light.

But... she couldn't grasp anything.

She finally broke free from Lu Li's grasp.

But in her hand, all that remained was an empty sword hilt.

That person taught her what "protection" means.

The man who risked his life to pull her back from the abyss when she was at her most desperate...

And so, in her arms, it turned into a sky full of stardust.

Only...

A gentle, lingering final word.

"ah--!"
