Chapter 55: 55. I hate Tentacle Monster the most.
Yan Chixia had died, her face peaceful as if in deep sleep, the spark of life completely extinguished.
Fang Zhou silently watched her, and finally bowed deeply, “Master Yan, if I do not succeed in this mission, it only becomes an act of benevolence; if I fail, I too shall perish here. Your legacy will have to wait for someone else to continue. If by any luck I succeed, I will come back to bury you.”
He straightened up, tore the hem of his garment into strips, and strapped the Sword Box on his back. Taking one last look at Yan Chixia, he turned and left.
Exiting the dungeon and reaching the bottom of the dry well, Fang Zhou used the walls on either side to climb to the surface.
Just as he emerged onto the ground, Nie Xiaoqian appeared beside him.
Seeing the Sword Box on Fang Zhou’s back, Nie Xiaoqian immediately recognized it as Yan Chixia’s and took a fearful step back. The Sword Box seemed extremely dangerous to him, as if a sword might spring out at any time and cleave him in two.
“Immortal Fang, where is Hero Yan?”
Nie Xiaoqian asked curiously, wondering why only the objects appeared but not the person.
Fang Zhou somberly replied, “She has already died.”
Nie Xiaoqian covered her mouth in shock, “Died?”
Then, somberly, she added, “If Caichen knew about this, she would be very grieved. She always saw Hero Yan as a benefactor and sister.”
