Demon Emperor
Chapter 45 Goodbye
"Yes, I'm going out. But before that, can you tell me about your life in this world and how you got to this world?" ask Han Shu.
"It'll take a long time to tell."
"Then I ask you one thing, what poison is in your body?" han Shu asked seriously.
Instantly Jing Tian fell silent, then he replied, "I was exposed to the Black Rose Crystal Poison."
"What's!? Is not poison easy to cure? But, I never saw any symptoms present in your body. Is that really the Black Crystal Rose Poison?" Han Shu was a little surprised.
Black Crystal Rose Poison is a poison that comes from roses that have a color like black crystals. The poison can inhibit and dissipate the energy in the body of a cultivator.
However, the effect only has a slight effect on the body and the drug is easily made by anyone, namely with the flower itself.
"This is true Black Crystal Rose Poison. I was exposed to this poison when fighting someone in this Mortal World a hundred years ago," Jing Tian replied.
"So you were here a hundred years ago. Then why don't you make the cure?" ask Han Shu back.
"The flower does not exist in this Mortal World. I have searched for it even around this world but still have not found it" Jing Tian replied as he threw his fishing rod again.
"Unconsciously, my legs suddenly blackened and until now have blackened to the stomach," continued Jing Tian.
"Then, since when have you been lying weak here?"
"I've been here ten years. My student has always protected me and he's also trying to find a cure for me but it's impossible."
"Is he really looking for a cure? All I know is he became an imperial fugitive for causing so much unrest." Han Shu told me the truth.
"It turns out... He must have been trying to avenge the man who poisoned—"
And once again, Jing Tian's fishing hook was attracted by the fish. He pulled her straight. But all he got was a small fish, he then released it back.
"Who dares to poison you? How could that person get the poison whereas in this world there was no poison-making ingredient?" han Shu asked with a serious face.
"Dia—"
Suddenly the wind blew strong against the waves that hit the small island. To make their clothes soaked.
Not stopping just there, a big wave far from the island is visible and will soon hit the small island.
"It seems like I can't defend my body and subconscious anymore. You'd better get out of here soon" Jing Tian asked.
"Can't you hold it a little longer? I'll get you some medicine." Han Shu was a little saddened by Jing Tian's imminent state.
"I can't."
The sky that was once bright blue became darker and darker. The distant tide is getting closer.
Suddenly Jing Tian flicked his finger at Han Shu's forehead.
"That's our parting gift. Please take good care of my students. He's I've looked at like my own son. Goodbye, Xin Feng." Jing Tian smiled happily.
Han Shu returns to the real world. When he opened his eyes, Jing Tian's body slowly began to disappear.
Han Shu saw Jing Tian's soul leave his body with a beaming smile.
Tears started to stem in both of Han Shu's eyes. However, Han Shu kept him from crying.
"I will avenge you!" he said full of determination. Both of his hands clenched firmly like he wanted to hit something.
The parting gifts given by Jing Tian were some of his memories when he was in the Mortal World.
When Jing Tian wanted to escape from Xin Feng's pursuit, he used the Dimensional Breaker's forbidden technique. When he opened his eyes, he was already in the Mortal World. His cultivation also declined drastically.
He wandered around the world in search of a way to return to the Immortal World. However, as he ventured in the Han empire, someone who knew him came and attacked him.
That guy used poison on his gun. Jing Tian was hit by several incisions on his body so that the poison entered his body.
After Jing Tian was exposed to the poison, the person left with a happy smile like he had already won the battle.
"It is certain that this person is also from the Immortal World. But I didn't recognize him clearly because his memory was blurry."
"But for sure, he was in this Empire. I will definitely kill him! Sure is!" Han Shu is determined.
Meanwhile, Xue Jian who saw his teacher's body disappear felt puzzled and also felt very sad.
"What happened to the teacher!?" He came down from the rock where he was sitting and walked on all fours to where his teacher had disappeared.
He tried to get closer with all his strength.
"What happened to the teacher!?" Xue Jian asked again.
"He's been letting go of his suffering all along. I hope you don't cry over your teacher's death. That was his last wish." Han Shu is lying.
But he still cried it. Tears kept coming out to wet his cheeks and also up to his clothes.
Han Shu was simply speechless waiting for Xue Jian to finish crying over his teacher. Until unknowingly the blood on his hands began to dry up.
"When are you going to cry?"
"It's all because of you!" Xue Jian accused Han Shu of killing his teacher.
"Yes, it's my fault."
Han Shu said it. But, indirectly, Han Shu's confession was the truth. Were it not for him, Jing Tian would not have come to this world and experienced this incident.
"It's my fault, but I won't apologize" he continued.
Xue Jian gritted his teeth and intended to take revenge on Han Shu but he did not have any composure to do so.
"As much as you want to blame me or not, I don't care. I'll get out of here as soon as possible to find the culprit who poisoned him." Han Shu left the cave leaving Xue Jian.
Outside the cave Han Shu stopped. It was already early morning, He looked back thinking Xue Jian would follow him but the truth was not.
"It looks like he has already decided on a plan ahead of him. Then I'll go back to camp."
Upon arriving at the camp, he asked where Yueyin rested with the soldiers. Then he immediately met her. Before that, he had one of the soldiers pick up Xue Jian.
Upon entering the camp where Yueyin was resting, he found Yueyin who was treating her wounds.
"Are you okay?" ask Han Shu.
"I'm fine, sir." replied Yueyin flatly as she wrapped the wound on her arm in a cloth.
