Oops, I've become the puppy apprentice of my stupid master.

Lin Xi placed the tip of the sword against the back of the man's neck. A purple glow flashed across his lifeless brown pupils. She lowered her eyes and looked down, her eyes filled with endless coldness.

"You just need to tell me where Song Zhili is."

Perhaps because he knew he was about to die, even when facing such a threat from the other party, Lu Li did not panic because of fear.

"I don't know, he's not here."

"lie."

Lin Xi had obviously lost her patience. She retracted her sword, turned around and walked directly towards the hall.

Seeing this, Lu Li was shocked. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he actually climbed up and hugged the other person's legs.

"You can't go in. Today is my brother's wedding. I won't let you go in and ruin the wedding!"

"open!"

"I won't let go!"

Lin Xi moved her body and found that she couldn't get free, so her face turned dark.

"court death."

She raised her sword and stabbed it down with such force that it pierced through the opponent's back and embedded itself several inches deep into the ground.

A huge pain spread from his limbs to every part of his body, and Lu Li couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

But once the tragedy begins, how can it end so quickly?

This one stab of sword was not enough to satisfy someone, so there was a second and a third stab...

She didn't stop until she had pierced the man's body full of holes, with her face covered in blood.

But even so, Lu Li's arms still held the other's legs tightly without loosening at all.

The jade bodhi bracelet worn on his left wrist began to flash with an unusual light from a while ago. It only completed its mission and sank into the darkness with its owner after his death.

Lin Xi had had enough of playing, and just as she was about to chop off the opponent's arms, a fan suddenly swirled over and knocked the sword in her hand away.

"Lu Li!"

Looking at the figure on the ground in the distance that was stained with blood, Song Zhili felt for a moment that the heaven and earth were beginning to distort.

All the blood in his body seemed to freeze. He stumbled over and pushed the woman in front of him aside, then bent down and knelt on the ground, and finally carefully picked up the person in front of him.

"Lu...Lu Li..."

"Why, why were you fine just now? Something happened to you just moments after we separated..."

Song Zhili cried inconsolably while holding the corpse in his arms.

Ever since his master left, he has especially cherished everyone around him who is kind to him.

Although Lu Li is always a crybaby and his tears are worthless, he is actually a very considerate, capable and lovable person.

After spending these years together, he had already regarded these people as his family and a part of his life.

"Wake up, Lu Li, wake up. Brother Song still has a gift for you. Are you sure you don't want to come and see it?"

"You used all your money to buy a house for your younger brother and helped him find a wife. I know it's not easy for you, so I found a mansion for you a long time ago. I said that you are my younger brothers, and as the eldest brother, I will definitely not treat you unfairly..."

"Don't you usually like the things I give you the most? Are you sure you don't want them this time?"

Lin Xi tried to attack Song Zhili several times, but was beaten back by the Jade Bone Fan in the end.

The only purpose of her coming here was to find Song Zhili, but after finding Song Zhili, she didn't know what to do next.

So after being stopped by the fan several times, she simply stood there motionless.

At this moment, Song Zhili only had eyes for the man in his arms. He didn't have the energy to stand up and question the murderer.

He held Lu Li's body and cried sadly for a long time, and he couldn't stop the heart-wrenching tears no matter what.

It was not until a hand was gently placed on his shoulder that he raised his head and slowly opened his bloodshot eyes.

The person in front of him was none other than Lu Li, who gave him a shy smile.

For a moment, Song Zhili thought he was hallucinating. He called out uncertainly, "Lu Li...is that you?"

Lu Li had a gentle smile on his face. He gently stroked the other person's cheek and said, "Brother Song, it's me."

Hearing this, Song Zhili excitedly grabbed the other person's arm.

"It's really you, but haven't you already..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly saw the other person's body flickering faintly, sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.

His arms couldn't help but tremble, and the tears in his eyes broke out again.

At this moment, he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"You...you...are not...no..."

Lu Li gently held the other person's violently trembling hands. His tone was extremely gentle, and there was a soothing force in his words.

"Brother Song, I am just a soul now. It is only thanks to the bracelet you gave me that I can see you again in this way at this moment."

"Brother Song, please don't be sad. I'm just an ordinary person. It doesn't matter if I die. If I can use my life to protect Lu Ming's wedding night and Brother Song... In fact, this is really enough for me."

Song Zhili shook his head with tears in his eyes. These were the words he least wanted to hear.

"I don't want to hear this, Lu Li, you can't die, you know that? My restaurant still needs you, what should I do if you leave? Lu Ming isn't as attentive as you, he isn't as attentive as you... I really can't live without you, Lu Li... Lu Li, don't leave..."

"Brother Song..."

Lu Li held back his tears and hugged the man in front of him into his arms. He gently patted his back, giving him this hard-earned last comfort.

"Lu Ming is probably asleep now. When he wakes up tomorrow and finds out I'm dead, I don't know what he'll do. I hope Brother Song can help me keep an eye on him then."

"No, I don't care...if you have the guts, go talk to him yourself!"

Song Zhili shook his head and refused, his voice gradually becoming hoarse and weak at this moment.

It should have been a tough, cruel word, but saying it at this moment just made people feel heartbroken.

Lu Li seemed not to hear these words and continued speaking.

"Brother Song, you must be happy and never be sad because of me. If there is an afterlife, I really hope..."

He didn't say anything else. Before Song Zhili could ask, the man holding him disappeared.

When he looked down at the corpse in his arms again, the bracelet that had been intact had shattered into pieces on the ground.

"Lu Li..."

It was not until this moment that he finally admitted the fact that Lu Li was dead.

The bracelet was broken and the person was completely gone.

The crying gradually died down, and the originally unstable emotions gradually calmed down.
