Chapter 273.

In that short moment, in the instant that everyone tried to intercept and take away Jiang Yu at the same time, Sheng An had already figured it out –

It was useless.

This broken shard ignored all of their xeno abilities.

It was normal that both xenos and fae came from the shard, and it was normal that xenos were useless against the shard, and Hao Jingye, as the lord of the fae, knew the shard far better than humans.

He wants them to pay the “price”, he gave up the broken fragments that he took away, and instead made it even more broken …… Then, this blow will definitely see blood.

Otherwise, it’s not worth giving up so much.

Take away Jiang Yu?

It was too late, she failed to enter space and fell to the ground, with the speed of the shard, there was no way to take her away anymore.

If Long Tianyu was still awake, it might work.

But-

Hao Jingye’s calculations were comprehensive, Long Tianyu was unconscious and dying, this strike, it was bound to hit.

Almost instinctive thoughts: Jiang Yu can not die!

Hao Jingye in the dying pick a person to start, or the only broken fragments can only start one person, he chose Jiang fish, there must be a reason.

Even if that reason wasn’t known now, Jiang Yu’s space was the last hope for humanity.

No matter what, she must live.

Sheng An lunged with Shan Hua.

In her mind, she had already figured out everything in a short moment, and had also made her calculations.

Her Time Ability might be useless against the shards.

But when not acting on the shard, the ability was useful, she unleashed her time ability, Shanhua drilled holes in her time, and she borrowed this little loophole, betting that the shard would not be able to take her life!

Countless scenarios in her head, all fail.

There was only this one, nine deaths, only a shallow, perhaps comforting glimmer of life for her, and she had to try it.

Because–

Jiang Yu must not die!

Even if ……

She died, what she had to do, there would still be other people to do on in her place, Jiang Yu’s space, however, must never go wrong.

The moment the shard pierced into her body, Sheng An knew:

The gamble was lost.

This shard was going to harvest lives.

However, when she was ready to account for the aftermath as fast as possible, she did not fall ……

The one who fell was Qiu Yu.

Sheng An was stunned.

Looking again at the place where the shard had pierced, there was nothing.

And next to Qiu Yu’s body, the same place was drenched in blood, the shards had entered the flesh, and the countless puppet strands in her hands that were tied to Sheng An’s body had completely collapsed.

Sheng An stiffly twisted his head and looked at Qiu Yu.

The others had also been stunned.

Song Linwei was first puzzled, then looked at the puppet strands and came to a realization.

–Autumn Rain’s experiment had succeeded.

A long time ago, after the fae attacked and killed Elder Chu, Sheng An thought that Qiu Yu’s puppet ability could do the same, however, Qiu Yu didn’t have any other abilities and had no way to experiment.

At that time, Qiu Yu said that she would give Sheng An an answer soon.

And then there had been no conclusion after that.

They all guessed that perhaps it was because Qiu Yu didn’t have a second psychic ability and couldn’t really come up with an answer, that’s why there was no conclusion.

They didn’t guess wrong.

Qiu Yu didn’t have an answer for a while, but she was never willing to lose to Sheng An and kept trying desperately.

She succeeded in her attempt.

Puppet masters were able to give their powers to puppets to use, as well as …… use the puppet’s powers, as well as transferring the damage from the puppet’s body.

That was what a puppeteer was!

As Sheng An pounced on her, and as Shan Hua drilled a loophole, the Autumn Rain Puppet Silk struck out, from the loophole, to complete the level-spanning maneuver.

Her holding on to Sheng An was before the shard, and when the shard stabbed in, they were one and the same, meeting it together.

Qiu Yu takes the damage part.

Sheng An had to save Jiang Yu, and Qiu Yu had to save Sheng An.

Song Linwei figured it out, and Sheng An could understand it too.

The moment she reaches out to catch Qiu Yu, the sharp knife strikes, digging out pieces of flesh along with the piece of blood and flesh, striking quickly to try and save the man.

Qi Lingmu brought Jia Guangliang to the side, and the only alien energy left in Jia Guangliang’s body was all injected into Qiu Yu.

The wound instantly improved.

It’s alright?

Jia Guangliang was alarmed, ”Not right! It’s not right inside Team Leader Qiu’s …… body!”

He couldn’t tell where it was wrong, but he could clearly feel it – the alien energy, energy, and vitality within Qiu Yu’s body all followed the blood and were sucked dry by the fragments!

She started from her limbs and gradually turned into blood.

The silvery-white shard flickered with a slightly reddish light, as if it was being reflected by the blood.

Sheng An Time Abnormal ability worked on Qiu Yu again and again.

The Mountain Flower Rule loophole was fully open, the Hand of Time did its best, yet the time that belonged to Qiu Yu could not be rattled at all, and Sheng An’s face grew whiter and whiter.

She refused to stop, gritting her teeth and continuing.

She was trying again and again, yet Autumn Rain was still disappearing little by little, without any semblance of stagnation.

Time Abilities, Healing Abilities, Plant Abilities, all were useless.

Thanks to the meteorite shard’s ability, the stronger it was, the more the energy became one with their blood, and as the shard sucked away the energy, it drained the blood.

She can’t live.

Qiu Yu opened her mouth and spoke with difficulty, “You, you can’t die …… Your supernormal ability …… is important ……”

Sheng An’s hand lurched, and she put it down disheveledly with resignation, her face was powerless and pale, and she pulled the corner of her mouth, her voice was very light-

“It’s all now, do you still want to talk tough? Ever since you were a child, you have always suffered because your words were not pleasing to the ear, twenty-five years and you still haven’t learned your lesson.”

Autumn Rain was stunned.

Then, she smiled, her voice soft, “Well, it’s me who doesn’t want you to die.”

Rationally speaking, Sheng An’s special ability was special, she was the one who reopened everything, she couldn’t die, and it was valuable for Qiu Yu to protect her just like she protected Jiang Yu.

In terms of what they were taught-

That was taken for granted.

But just now, that short moment, there was no time for reason, and it wasn’t reason manipulating the body, it was emotion and instinct.

She had blocked for Sheng An simply because she didn’t want her to die.

There was nothing else.

She was not a popular girl and had no friends, of course, she also looked down on those “friends” who had no strength and would not take care of them.

She is stubborn, headstrong, and unwilling to trust people.

Naturally, no one really cares about her.

Sheng An was her only friend, ever since she was young.

She used to think that Sheng An betrayed her because he didn’t put her in his heart, because he never cared about her, but today the knot in her heart has been dissolved.

Sheng An, in fact, had always been her best friend.

Sheng An looked at her, the corner of her mouth pulling a smile, she was smiling, but in her Danfeng eyes, two tears rolled down silently, her eyes red.

Qiu Yu wanted to reach out her hand to wipe them, but she could no longer do so.

As if knowing her thoughts, Sheng An smiled gently and said:

“Autumn Rain, goodbye.”

Qiu Yu’s body turned into blood and water and returned her bright smile:

Sheng An, goodbye.

Smiling at each other, like when they were children.

–“My name is Sheng An, the Sheng of Sheng Shi, the An of Guo Tai Min An.”

–“My name is Qiuyu, the word for autumn, the word for rain.”

Sheng An, Autumn Rain.

I wish for a prosperous world, peace for the people and prosperity for the nation, and a thousand years of good weather.
