Please Spare My Life, Disciple of the Demon Lord

Chapter 151 Waiting for the End

"It hurts so much!"

Jiang Tingwan started screaming before he even opened his eyes. Apart from the pain, Jiang Tingwan felt that everything around him was empty, and even his voice had a faint echo.

She opened her eyelids with some difficulty, but saw a bare, dilapidated dead tree with a sparse trunk and old bark. It felt like she was lying on a piece of ice and it was freezing cold.

"Where is this, what's wrong with me?"

"You're dead!" came the voice closest to me, and it was also the most familiar voice.

Jiang Tingwan was so scared that she sat up, only to see Sui Jiu in human form sitting next to her, seemingly in a daze.

"What's going on! Don't scare me!"

Sui Jiu turned his head and said, "Do I look like I'm joking? Have you forgotten what you did?"

The memories before his death flashed back wildly at this moment. Jiang Tingwan swallowed his saliva and looked around for a few more times. The dead trees, the cold air, and the dead atmosphere made him shudder in his heart: "Is this hell? The icy hell?"

Jiang Tingwan was so cold that he hugged himself tightly, but he opened his mouth, "No! I am most afraid of the cold, and I haven't done anything bad. I can get three good grades as a student, and I am not a good person as a member of society. How can I go to hell? It can't be just because I didn't complete a task of traveling through a book, it can't be! It can't be!"

When he thought of this possibility, Jiang Tingwan grabbed Suijiu and started shaking him, "You can't do this... This is too unfair. It is said that if you do nothing wrong in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. But how did I become a ghost? And I don't like knocking on people's doors..."

"What are you talking about!" Sui Jiu was so dizzy from being shaken by her that he could only call her to stop immediately, "You're not dead, not dead!"

As soon as he heard this keyword, Jiang Tingwan stopped.

Sui Jiu, however, slowed down and added, “But he is not far from death.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Tingwan started shaking again, "Ah! What's that? If you want to die, then die. Why did you give me a transition? You can't even let me die happily..."

Sui Jiu was dizzy from being shaken and was about to fight back when a picture suddenly unfolded in the foggy water vapor.

"Junior sister! How do you feel?"

Is that the voice of Cang Shuzi?

Jiang Tingwan stopped what he was doing, turned his head, and saw Cang Shuzi's face. Mu Qingge was standing next to him.

Who is he calling Junior Sister?

"Thank you, senior brother."

Who is answering?

Jiang Tingwan sat up straight and looked at the scene in the mist.

This perspective, this sound?

Is it yourself?

No, it’s Bai Wangshu!

Jiang Tingwan reacted quickly, "We are in Bai Wangshu's body?"

Sui Jiu, who had just recovered, shook his head and gave a formal answer: "That's right! You swallowed too many Nine Revolutions Golden Pills. The surge of spiritual power should have burst your body, but there was another soul sleeping in your body. The spiritual power nourished Bai Wangshu's soul and awakened her, and therefore shared most of the drug power with you, so you didn't die immediately."

"So what is this now?"

Sui Jiu seemed to think about it seriously and answered her: "Although you are the one chosen by heaven, you cannot be the one who invades other people's lives. When the original owner wakes up, you will become the redundant one."

"What is heaven's way? What is a system? What kind of system do you have?"

Sui Jiu: "No matter what we are, it doesn't matter. What matters is that although you survived by chance, judging from the current situation, your journey of self-rescue is basically over."

Jiang Tingwan's heart beat twice, then stopped twice. Sui Jiu's voice was like a judgment, telling her her fate and final outcome.

"Then why am I still here? I failed, shouldn't I be wiped out by you?" This is almost a convention in all novels about traveling through a book. Although Jiang Tingwan was puzzled, she clearly felt that now was the best time for her to understand Sui Jiu and her so-called journey of traveling through a book to save herself.

Sui Jiu scratched his head in embarrassment, as if he was hesitating about what to say and what not to say, and he was struggling for a long time.

Jiang Tingwan quickly asked, "No, I'm about to die, you have to let me die with a clear conscience."

Sui Jiu glanced at Jiang Tingwan, feeling conflicted and embarrassed, kind-hearted but also conflicted. After all, they had been together for such a long time, and she was also his second mission target. Sui Jiu sighed lightly and decided to tell the truth.

"The reason you haven't died yet is because Mu Yunzhong's storyline hasn't ended yet. Although your mission has failed, his story hasn't yet intersected with yours, so it can't affect your ending."

Jiang Tingwan was confused. Did she mean that Mu Yunzhong's final outcome was still uncertain?

Sui Jiu also scratched his head and thought: "As for why you can still stay here? I am not sure, maybe it is because Bai Wangshu woke up and saved you by accident, so you stayed in her body with your residual consciousness. Or maybe, your mission will not be completely completed until Mu Yunzhong's story is over."

Jiang Tingwan felt dizzy after listening to this, but he still sorted out his thoughts and concluded, "In other words, the current situation is that I have to stay in Bai Wangshu's body and wait for Mu Yunzhong's final choice. Either he turns over a new leaf, abandons evil and does good, and everyone is happy, or I have to watch him turn evil with my own eyes?"

"It's almost what it means!"

"almost?"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Jiang Tingwan sneered several times in a row, she was speechless. Was this any different from watching her own death countdown every day? She couldn't do anything. She wanted to hang herself on the dead tree behind her and put an end to it.

But after a brief cry, she realized something, put her hands on her hips, and questioned, "No, no!"

Jiang Tingwan stared at Sui Jiu, questioning him. "Mu Yunzhong was going to come through the plane to kill me, and you came to stop him? What about Wen Bumian? He has been to several worlds, and what he is going to do now is the same as Mu Yunzhong? Even worse, why did you turn a blind eye? Why can he be so unscrupulous?"

Jiang Tingwan could never have imagined that the treatment he received was so different from that of Wen Bumian? ! !

Hearing her question, Sui Jiu fell silent, as if he couldn't answer it either.

"I don't know about this either. This is indeed an accident. He is a very powerful being, so powerful that I just discovered his clues now. But my mission is to protect you. I can't do anything else."

Sui Jiu answered, but Jiang Tingwan remained silent. She suddenly thought of another ending in which she could still be alive, that is, Mu Yun finally died at the hands of Wen Bumian and no longer posed a threat to her.

But when she thought of this ending, her heart felt as if it was being grabbed by something and she felt a pang of bitterness.

For a moment, she felt a headache and she didn't know whether it was because of the complicated situation or the previous fight.

At the same time, the conversation on the screen continued, attracting her attention...
