Chapter 1235: Wait A While
When Dong Chiyu and Yu Youyu rushed to Nanbeilou, they found only the fallen horse. As for where Ruyi and Ping'an had gone, no one knew.
A sinking feeling washed over Yu Youyu. Her face paled, and she nearly fainted.
Dong Chiyu caught her and held her up in silence.
Life's partings and deaths were always an agonizing torment. With no words of comfort to offer, she could only stand and watch in silence.
The eagle demon, a creature with many years of Cultivation, had departed.
Only desolation remained on the mountain.
Ruyi kept vigil before the grave. She said nothing. A quiet calm lingered in her eyes, but beneath that calm lay an overwhelming despair.
When a person dies, the lamp goes out. She understood that truth better than anyone.
Yet she felt a welling of hatred—a hatred for the heavens.
