Befriending The Most Powerful Person

《72》

After all, Ling Wangchen was just a remnant soul. If he was devoured by the original body like this, he would completely disappear... and even lose the chance of reincarnation.

After thinking about this, Shao Ci somehow found the strength to rush forward and directly stood in front of Ling Wangchen.

He didn't know what he was thinking. Clearly, these things had nothing to do with him, but he just didn't want Ling Wangchen to die.

The Immortal Lord also didn't expect Shao Ci to directly rush over. The sword that was originally going to strike was immediately pulled back, but the sword energy was difficult to retract and directly swept over Shao Ci.

Already heavily injured, Shao Ci coughed up a mouthful of blood and his face was covered in cold sweat.

“Xiao' Ci!¹" Ling Wangchen held Shao Ci in astonishment, anxiously checking his body. "Are you okay?"

Shao Ci lay on him, feeling terrible. "I... I have something to do…"

If just now he could still control it reluctantly, now it feels like he's adding injury to injury and his consciousness is about to drift away.

The Immortal Lord's face also turned cold. What Shao Ci did just now undoubtedly indicated that in his heart, his own clone was more important.

Even though he knew this, it was still difficult for him to accept it when he saw it for real.

Why wasn't it him?

The Immortal Lord spoke, "Hand him over to me."

Ling Wangchen was taken aback but understood that his strength was indeed inferior to the Immortal Lord's. Since it concerned Shao Ci's safety, he immediately handed Shao Ci over to the Immortal Lord.

The Immortal Lord held Shao Ci carefully, inspecting him with a growing gloomy expression. "His soul is extremely unstable, but it is barely held within his body under the suppression of this formation. If we don't deal with it quickly, there is a definite risk to his life."

Clearly, it shouldn't have reached this extent with just the sword energy. It was evident that Shao Ci was already injured, but he was still willing to stand in front of this remnant soul.

"What should we do?" Ling Wangchen whispered, looking at Shao Ci in a panicked manner.

Shao Ci unexpectedly stood in front of him, and he felt very happy. In that moment, he even thought that it didn't matter if he died now, knowing Shao Ci's feelings for him made him feel content.

But if it meant that Shao Ci would get hurt because of this, he would rather have died from the beginning.

"It's difficult to resolve now." The Immortal Lord's expression was extremely grave as he said, "Originally, I planned to slowly remove the mark, but the mark on his body was triggered by a force... Now, only my full strength can save him."

"And now, only your power is missing." The Immortal Lord turned to Ling Wangchen and spoke softly, "You are me, I know, you must be willing."

"Yes." Ling Wangchen also understood very well, after all, he was a part of the other's soul. "It's indeed difficult to control one's power with a missing part of the soul."

His expression instantly became firm.

He wanted to live, he wanted to live together with Shao Ci... but if Shao Ci wasn't here, then all of this would be meaningless.

Ling Wangchen looked at Shao Ci, pale and covered in cold sweat, held his hand, and lowered his head to gently kiss his lips, a smile in his eyes.
