Chapter 34: You Are a Saint Today! (1)
Cheek.
The door swung open.
Bai Lian stood on a snow-covered ground that had been trampled, right in front of the door.
Previously, Xuezhan would always raise her head from the chair and offer a kind greeting.
However, at this moment, she was leaning on the bamboo chair motionless.
If she hadn't rested her right hand and head on the handrail, she would have fallen on the cold ground.
"Xuezhan!"
Bai Lian hurried over.
She tenderly took hold of Xuezhan's wrist.
It's chilly.
Just like her physique.
No.
Xuezhan's physique is cooler than hers.
Although Bai Lian doesn't know why, her body is no longer as cold as a corpse.
Bai Lian frowned, noticing that Xuezhan was still breathing.
She turned her head to gaze at the bed next to her.
It was sprinkled with various medicines, and there was also a bright red stain on the sheets.
It appeared to be blood from Xuezhan's body.
"Didn't she take the medicine pills?"
Bai Lian counted the pills of medicine.
Yes, Xuezhan didn't take any of them.
Knowing that she was going to die, did Xuezhan just give up?
It won't take her more than half an hour to die completely.
Bai Lian remained silent.
If she were the one making the choice, she would choose to live.
She wanted to live, even if it was only for an hour.
We can only have hope if we live; when we die, we have nothing.
Bai Lian picked up a Revive Pill in her hand.
She sat by the bed and gently took Xuezhan into her arms, as if taking care of her sick daughter.
She looked down.
Xuezhan's mouth was tightly shut, with trace amounts of bloodstains around it.
Bai Lian wiped the blood with her thumb, but then she suddenly froze.
She saw a smile!
Perhaps it's just an illusion.
No!
Fairy Bai Lian never believed in illusions!
That was probably because she had just wiped the corners of Xuezhan's mouth, which made her smile. She didn't know that this would be the last memory of Xuezhan's smile before her death.
In short, this is not the time to be thinking about such matters.
Bai Lian held the Revive Pill and placed it into Xuezhan's mouth using her finger.
The Revive Pill melted instantly, but she didn't hurry to remove her finger.
Bai Lian withdrew her finger only after all the medicinal energy had dissolved in Xuezhan's body.
Just as Bai Lian's finger was about to leave Xuezhan's lips, Xuezhan suddenly stirred with her eyes shut.
Her teeth nibbled.
They clamped down on Bai Lian's finger like gentle pincers, making it difficult for her to pull away easily.
"…"
Bai Lian was taken aback.
She felt the warm, wet tongue licking her fingers, reminiscent of eating a lollipop.
"Ah."
At that moment, Xuezhan opened her eyes and recoiled in panic.
Duang ~ Suddenly, her head collides with a pair of "mounds".
Xuezhan's body tensed up, and she was too afraid to move.
Bai Lian calmly used magic to wipe the saliva off her fingers and said, "You are awake."
Xuezhan sighed and bowed her head. "White Emperor Bai Lian, why did you give me those medicines? Just let me leave quietly. It's better to not cause any trouble to anyone."
Bai Lian shook her head.
She didn't want to argue with Xuezhan over trivial matters.
She wasn't a Saint but just a kind-hearted ordinary person. In her final hour, all she wanted was to see Xuezhan laugh genuinely.
Doesn't Xuezhan ever feel lonely and desire companionship?
Allow her to befriend Xuezhan for an hour!
Bai Lian inquired, "Do you have any unfulfilled desires?"
Xuezhan's mouth fell open slightly.
She noticed a determined gleam in Bai Lian's eyes.
Since "resistance" is futile, just relax and enjoy the experience.
Xuezhan closed her eyes slowly and said, "If it's alright with you, I would like to return to the place where I was born."
"The place where you were born?" asked the person.
"You mean?"
"The Spirit of Snow."
Bai Lian understood.
Xuezhan has indeed regained the lost memory.
"Okay."
Although Bai Lian is uncertain of the exact location, they suspect that the place must be situated at the northernmost part of the snowfield, based on the presence of deep valleys and glaciers.
Let's wait until we arrive there first.
Bai Lian embraced Xuezhan and stepped out into the gusts of wind and snow.
As she arrived at the stream, she noticed that the turtle was already facing northward.
"Fairy Bai Lian, I will take you there," the turtle offered.
"Thank you, Master Turtle."
Bai Lian rose to her feet and leaped onto the turtle's back, informing it of their destination.
Distance was not an issue for the turtle, as it could quickly arrive at their destination by utilizing the Space Shrinking spell multiple times.
As it strode through the clouds, its heart was overcome with emotion.
Indeed, both the master and the disciple are outstanding individuals!
From its perspective, Bai Lian and An Lan are essentially identical in nature.
Bai Lian acted like a Saint.
An Lan also solved the issue with the kelp without expecting any sort of reward.
The distinction lies in that Bai Lian is more articulate in expressing her thoughts than An Lan. However, it's only a slight difference!
However, this is often what determines the difference.
…
"We've reached your destination, Fairy Bai Lian."
Bai Lian's voice carried the sound of a turtle.
She looked ahead immediately.
The glacier is massive.
Finding out Xuezhan's birthplace is not difficult if there is enough time.
Unfortunately.
Bai Lian estimated that she only had seven fifteen-minute increments left.
How can one create miracles in just seven fifteen-minute increments?
[System!]
The system is unresponsive.
How could you not be helpful during this critical moment?
Bai Lian was feeling irritated.
She had to release her Divine Sense to conduct a thorough search.
However, after searching for a while, Bai Lian received feedback from the turtle.
"Fairy Bai Lian, where are you searching?"
Bai Lian promptly handed the turtle the picture of Xuezhan's birthplace.
The turtle then inquired, "Is this place connected to Miss Xuezhan?"
"That's right."
The turtle nodded and said, "Let me make a divination!"
"Divination?"
The turtle laughed, saying, "I've been practicing it for a while now and I think I'm pretty good at it."
Its divination has only failed twice.
Once it failed to divine its own destiny, and An Lan came to its rescue.
One time, it divined for An Lan but the backfire from the Great Tao almost killed it. It only managed to see a vague picture before it happened.
An Lan was lying on the ground with a ball of white light pressing down on her!
Then it passed out.
It's hard to determine whether the divination was favorable or unfavorable, but based on the picture, An Lan didn't seem to be in danger.
The turtle set Bai Lian down.
It danced wildly, with its big head stretching and shrinking.
The result was gratifying, although it looked a little weird.
"Get out… now!"
A golden light illuminated the back of the turtle.
Guided by it, Bai Lian was able to find Xuezhan's birthplace in just fifteen minutes.
It may look ordinary, but it is actually a glacier canyon.
At first glance, it appears to be covered with ice prisms.
If you're not familiar with the area, you'd never expect that a one-of-a-kind Spirit of Snow was born here.
"White Emperor Bai Lian, I want to rest here."
At that moment, Xuezhan found it difficult to speak.
"Hmm."
Bai Lian's face darkened slightly as she placed Xuezhan on the ground.
