Ra is supreme

Chapter 141 A Kongming Lantern for Yingying

Knock, knock, knock... There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Sister Yingying, is that you? Are you back?" Wang Zuyi walked in with light steps. Seeing that everyone had returned to Wanhua Palace, except Hu Yingying, Wang Zuyi was still thinking about her.

She lived in the room next to Hu Yingying's. When she saw the candlelight, she thought it was Hu Yingying who had returned, so she came to visit.

Seeing Wang Zuqi, Long Siqi immediately put away Yingying's sachet, but her golden tears had already spilled all over the floor.

"Sister Zuxiao, it's me." Long Siqi responded softly.

Seeing Long Siqi's sad look and those familiar dragon tears, Wang Zuqi's heart suddenly tightened, and an ominous feeling suddenly surged in his heart.

"Princess Long Siqi, what's wrong with you?" Wang Zuqi walked forward and asked with concern.

Long Siqi shook her head slightly and remained silent. At this moment, she was heartbroken because the sight of the objects reminded her of someone.

"What happened to Sister Yingying? What exactly happened?" Looking at the scene in front of him, Wang Zuxiao finally couldn't help but ask.

Long Siqi shook her head again and remained silent.

"Tell me, has something happened to Sister Yingying? Why has everyone returned to Wanhua Palace, but Sister Yingying is the only one missing?... Why are you so sad?" Wang Zuxiao began to get nervous.

Long Siqi's golden tears slid down again and she nodded slightly.

Wang Zuqi's tears burst out like a flood, and sadness suddenly surged in her heart. She held Long Siqi's hand tightly and asked in a trembling voice: "Princess Long Siqi, tell me, what happened to Sister Yingying? Is she injured? Where is she now?"

Long Siqi was silent for a long time, then said, "Yingying... is gone..." There was endless sadness in her eyes.

Upon hearing the sad news, Wang Zuxiao suddenly collapsed to the ground and cried bitterly...

"Sister Yingying is a fox fairy who has practiced for ten thousand years. She will not die. I don't believe it, I don't believe it..." Wang Zuyi sobbed. She couldn't accept this fact, and she didn't want to believe that Yingying was gone. Yingying went to Egypt to marry for her, and she was also her great benefactor.

Long Siqi saw the sincere friendship deep in Wang Zuqi's heart, and looking at her grief-stricken appearance, she gently helped her up from the ground and let her sit next to her.

"Grandpa, Yingying is gone. I find it hard to accept this fact." Long Siqi said sadly.

"Princess Long Siqi, how did Sister Yingying die?" Tears welled up on Wang Zuqi's beautiful face.

Long Siqi stared into her deep blue eyes, unable to bear telling her the truth. Yingying was brutally murdered by Yunyan, who was the eldest sister of the Zuxi Emperor and one of her few close relatives. If the truth was told, it would be a great blow to this human girl who had just turned 18.

She knew how helpless and heart-wrenching that feeling was. For Wang Zuwei, his closest relatives brutally killed his benefactor. Wasn't this kind of pain an endless torture?

"It was my fault that I failed to protect her, Zuqi. Don't worry, I will definitely rescue her. Yingying will come back!" Long Siqi gently wiped the tears from Wang Zuqi's face and comforted her gently.

"Can you save Sister Yingying now? Just like you used the Dragon's Tears to save our mother!" Wang Zuqi looked at Long Siqi with eager eyes.

Long Siqi shook her head again. She also wanted to save Yingying, but Yingying's soul had been completely devoured by Yun Yan, and even the Dragon's Tears could not revive her.

Wang Zuxi choked up again. She still had a lot to say to Yingying. She had always wanted to find an opportunity to thank her and repay her kindness.

"If the eldest princess knew about this, she would definitely be very sad!" Wang Zuxiao said while sobbing.

Long Siqi then fell into endless silence, with a pain like a knife cutting her heart. She wanted to erase Wang Yunyan from her heart. She could not forgive Yunyan for what she had done to Yingying, nor could she be cruel enough to kill her.

"The eldest princess went to the Nuxiong Kingdom to marry a prince some time ago. If she knew about this, she would definitely avenge Sister Yingying." Wang Zuqi continued to murmur.

In her mind, the eldest sister is a chivalrous woman with great martial arts skills and a hatred of evil. In order to protect her, the eldest sister did not hesitate to turn against the fourth brother, and she is the only close relative between her and her mother in China.

Long Siqi took a deep breath and sighed, then slowly closed her eyes. She wanted to forget everything. She just wanted to save Yingying.

"Don't be sad, Sister Zuqi, I will find a way. It's late at night, you should go and get some rest." Long Siqi said with concern.

Wang Zuyi shook her head sadly, "I'm so sad... I want to bring a Kongming lantern to sister Yingying, hoping that her soul can fly back to Wanhua Palace with the Kongming lantern." Wang Zuyi's clear and charming eyes revealed sincere friendship. Although she didn't know what a soul was, she heard from Xiao Baibai that Kongming lanterns were used to make wishes and convey thoughts. She longed to see Yingying, even if Yingying came to her in a dream.

Long Siqi opened her eyes and stared at the innocent and kind-hearted human girl in front of her. Zu Xi's heart was as pure as water, which made her feel warm.

"Okay, I'll go with you!" A smile appeared on Long Siqi's face. She knew that Yingying's soul was no longer there, but she was still willing to go with her and bring a Kongming lantern for Yingying to express her longing for her.

Wang Zuxiao ordered the palace maids to prepare Kongming lanterns, writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, and wrote down her concern and longing for Yingying on the white silk:

My sister passed away and my clothes are soaked with tears.

The past years are hidden in my heart.

Missing you is like a stream of water that never stops.

I hope to see my sister’s beauty in my dreams.

Flowers bloom and fade in spring and autumn,

The night is long and my sister is nowhere to be seen.

The road to heaven is long and hard to see.

I can only express my sadness through poems.

Wang Zuxiao carefully tied the white silk with messages written on it under the Kongming lantern.

Seeing Zuxiao's concern and longing for Yingying, Long Siqi also wrote:

In the past, I had a deep affection for you.

Today the beauty goes to hell.

The thoughts in my heart are hard to stop,

The beauty is gone but the dream is still there.

I swear to pay you back.

Put all your energy into breaking through the barrier of Hades.

No matter how difficult the road ahead is,

I also want to save you and bring you back to the human world.

She also carefully tied the message under the Kongming lantern.

She gently held the Kongming lantern in her hands, and Wang Zuxiao lit the candle under the lantern. As the heat continued to expand, the Kongming lantern slowly rose...

Long Siqi and Wang Zuqi followed closely, watching the lights gradually disappear into the distance.

"Princess Long Siqi, can Sister Yingying receive it? Can her soul come back?" Wang Zuqi asked softly.

"Zuqi, Yingying will definitely come back!" Long Siqi's voice was gentle and firm, without any hesitation or doubt, and her eyes revealed an unshakable determination and belief.

The cold wind of the winter night swept through the courtyard of Wanhua Palace, and Wang Zuqi couldn't help but shiver. She was just an ordinary human woman with a frail body and had never learned martial arts, so she could hardly resist the biting cold wind.
