Against The Gods
Chapter 53 – Evil God Seed, Fire Chapter 6

"Jasmine …. Jasmine …. "Take the name of Jasmine, Yun Che's heart was narrow. The severity of the deadly poison this time around was more than ten times stronger than the one that came out four months ago. After all, last time, he had only placed two Profound Spirit Realms, and it had already made him squirm in pain. Yet this time, he had sent a true dragon Emperor Realm, in an instant! The intensity of the profound strength he had to harness was different from heaven and earth.

Jasmine couldn't possibly not know the outcome of killing this Fire Dragon. But he had to attack, because otherwise, Yun Che would have died. And if Yun Che died, he would also definitely die as well.

Great regret made the inside of Yun Che's heart experience a wave of piercing pain …. During the process of sneaking into the Fire Dragon cave, Jasmine continuously persuaded him three times, and also warned him that a true dragon treasure would definitely have a trace of strength on them without exception; it means they are not easily obtained. But he continued without hesitation …. He did have courage and courage, but he might unknowingly forget one thing; he was no longer Yun Che whose voice echoed across the continent before, but only a trivial being had only reached the fourth level of the Profound Realm. What he was facing, however, was an extremely terrifying Emperor Profound Beast. With just a little carelessness, he would lose his life and drag Jasmine to lose her life with him.

But results like this, still happen in the end.

"I'm sorry, Jasmine .. I'm sorry …. Forgive me… . I shouldn't have listened to you, I shouldn't have been that fresh…. "When his hand felt the change in Jasmine's body, Yun Che's heart grew more and more limited. He apologized to Jasmine again and again …. But no matter how much he apologized and regretted at this moment, it could not bring back the current situation.

Jasmine's lips moved slightly, but the voice she sounded was too slow to hear.

His body became colder and colder, and without realizing it, had already turned into a semi-transparent state.

Although Jasmine's body was only half a refined form that depended on Yun Che's life force, in the end, it was still the soul master Jasmine. If this body disappeared, then the soul of Jasmine who had lost its host would spread out and completely disappear under devouring the deadly poison.

"Darken!! Melati!!"

Yun Che tightly clenched his teeth as his left hand desperately exuded the refining power of the Sky Poison Pearl. His right hand firmly shook his body, greedily hoping to awaken even the slightest bit of his consciousness. Finally, he saw his ghastly white lips open and close again. Yun Che froze for a moment, then hurriedly placed his ears near his lips.

“I... do not want... die ……. . Still not... avenged.. mother... and brother .... Not yet... killed... everything…. . I do not .. want .. die …. . "(TL: Jasmine uses ⁇ for mom. In English, I suppose it means" my mother, the empress ", but the real meaning is" mother "and is generally only used by imperial children.)

Jasmine's voice was extremely weak and it was almost impossible to hear clearly even from this close distance. However, this feeble voice made Yun Che's heart soar.

When Jasmine had first officially appeared before his eyes four months ago, he had already felt a sort of inexplicable familiarity from her…. A kind of feeling very similar to her during those days …. . She was undoubtedly young and very beautiful, and even called herself a princess; she should have grown up with the love of tens of thousands of people …. However, her beautiful eyes were always sparkling cold and apathetic. When killing people, her gentle face did not carry the slightest bit of fear and sympathy, but instead showed cruelty.

This time, he finally understood what was so familiar about him that resembled him, in the previous days …

That's hatred!

In the Azure Cloud Continent, when he was seventeen, he lived in the shadow of his Master who was hunted to death. Back then, only hatred, baseless hatred, overflowed from within his heart …. During those days, the expression in his eyes; his lethargy, his cruelty …. . Perhaps, it was very similar to the Jasmine he was seeing right now.

However, at that time, he was already seventeen years old and could at least be considered an adult. But Jasmine ... is only thirteen this year. He could not imagine what kind of hatred was driving a girl, originally supposed to be an angel, into an apathetic and cruel demon.

In his murmur just now, the way he called himself had turned into 'me', instead of 'this princess'. This discovery also made the inside of Yun Che's heart complicated. It was because Jasmine was now almost at a loss of her consciousness, so the words she said in this state were words that came from the soul. This meant that the two words 'this princess' were actually not what she used to call herself, but something she intentionally referred to as herself. As if using these words, he kept reminding himself of something.

A familiar feeling, as if they were experiencing the same fate, was born from the bottom of Yun Che's heart, coated together with an enormous feeling of guilt and regret. He began to shake Jasmine's body with greater strength and loudly shouted: “Jasmine, wake up! You don't have to lose consciousness! Didn't we make a deal? You gave me a new set of Profound Veins, but I haven't achieved what I have to do for you …. Are you willing to just leave !! Also ... You are my master, but you still haven't taught me anything .. As my master, you can't just act incompetent like this! Wake up, please wake up !! ”

But no matter how desperate Yun Che urged the Pearl Poison Pearl and shook it, Jasmine no longer responded. Her petite face lost the last bit of color, and her body became more and more transparent. Although it was still possible to touch the entity that was his body, Yun Che could almost clearly see the sand that was below, on the ground, through his chest.

Waves of coldness came from within Yun Che's heart, and even his teeth would be shattered from clenching too hard. He fiercely smashed his fist on his forehead, but the acute feeling of pain did not ease the inside of his heart even a little …. Your fault! Why don't you listen to Jasmine! Your life is not only yours, but Jasmine's life as well …. In the end, you even need Jasmine to save you with her life! You're the one who killed him !!

Yun Che clenched his teeth and cursed himself. From the rough and bloody forehead that hit his fist, a drop of blood slowly dripped down and fell onto the sizzling ground. As he saw a drop of blood quickly drying up, Yun Che suddenly froze: "Blood .. Right, my blood !!"

Immediately grabbing that glimmer of hope, Yun Che did not dare to hesitate for even a second. He stretched out his left arm and ferociously slashed at it with the fingertips of his right hand, and opened a long, deep lacerations that instantly caused blood to spurt out. Immediately, he used his fingers to carefully open Jasmine's lips without the slightest hint of color, and let his own blood flow to her lips, drop by drop. At the same time, he used his hand and forcefully squeezed his shoulder to make the blood flow faster.

Jasmine, I won't let you die …. I definitely don't want to!

Even if it's just for a promise I made in the past, that year ….

Fresh blood quickly flowed down and fell onto Jasmine's open lips. However, the blood grains slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth right after .. Jasmine was completely unconscious and basically unable to swallow herself.

Yun Che tightly knit his brows. After a moment of hesitation, he raised his own left arm, bit his wound, and sucked it hard. After sucking a little less than half a mouthful, he lowered his body and returned gently to open Jasmine's lips with his hands: "If you can get up, then it doesn't matter how you punish me afterwards, then, I'll take it willingly …. . ”

Amidst his calm mutterings, Yun Che lowered his head, gently covered his lips with his, and carefully let the blood in his mouth gradually cross over, drop by drop, into his lips. Using a careful breath, he blew his own blood, making it flow down from his mouth, into his body.

Although Jasmine's mouth was extremely pale, it was still soft and delicate, which made Yun Che have an uncontrollable desire to remain that way for a while longer. After a mouthful of blood was transferred, Yun Che's lips returned to the wound at once, and forcefully sucked again. After sucking another mouthful, he returned carefully moving it to Jasmine's mouth.

After repeating this a few times, the wound on his arm began to heal, making his blood sucking speed become much slower. Yun Che immediately stretched out his left hand and cut another profound lacerations right beside the first wound; and fresh blood once again, dripped down like a stream….

Blood was continuously transferred to Jasmine's mouth. When the fifth line of scars appeared on Yun Che's arm, about a fifth of the blood on his body had flowed into Jasmine's body. A substantial feeling of dizziness emerged from Yun Che's brain. However at this moment, he suddenly discovered that Jasmine's body was no longer an illusion, and began to appear little by little. The breakthrough deadly poison felt by the Sky Poison Pearl also began to subside, like a fire that had been rained down in rain.

Succeeds…. I succeeded !!

Waves of pleasant surprises ruled Yun Che's heart. Without the slightest hesitation, he stretched out his arm again, and cut off the sixth step of lacerations. His entire arm was already numb, yet the inside of his heart was still filled with happy excitement …. If his blood could really save him, then what should he forget?

If the human body lost more than one-fifth of its blood volume in a short period of time, it would cause a failure of the body's functions; over one-third, it would cause shock; over half, would cause death …

Yun Che, who had extremely high medical expertise, was clearly aware of this; but his movements, from start to finish, were clear, did not have the slightest hint of lethargy or hesitation as he continued to add more wounds on his arm, step by step.

When he was finally unable to endure the extremely heavy dizziness in his brain, his vision became a white field when he fainted while lying on the stone wall behind him….

Amidst his blurred consciousness, the shadow of a girl he had always tried to forget, slowly appeared …. .

For seven years he lived in hatred, in order to gain more strength, he desperately practiced every day until his entire body became ragged and was always close to death many times…. Each time, he would always gently treat her injuries, bring delicious food to her, repair her broken clothes, and make a bed for her…. And on the next day, he would secretly watch her go ….

During that period of time, she was the only warmth, and the only port she could sleep soundly in.

However, during that time, there was only hatred in his heart. Other than fighting back when covered with cuts and bruises, he never gave her friendship, never bought her a single hairpiece, and never made an appointment with her; he never made a single one; he never even showed her a single smile….

Until that day he left her forever, lying in his arms. At that moment, the expression in his eyes and voice, became a lifetime worth of unforgettable pain that drilled into his heart….

“…. In my heart, there are many wounds ... because it is in your body …. But ... I'm not sorry .. be the girl who accompanies you when you're alone …. Although it was painful ... it was also very happy …. . ”

“…. . Elder Brother Yun Che…. If later, when you're lonely, and there's a girl who's willing to stay by your side …. Then he... . must be an angel sent to you by heaven …. . Don't let him get hurt again ... well… . . ? ”
