There was a squeak.

The door is opened.

Mo Ya walked in hurriedly.

When he saw the black-haired boy still unconscious on the bed, his breathing became short and he said in a dry voice, "Still can't wake him up?"

Xile looked like she was about to cry, her eyes were red, and she slowly shook her head.

"I couldn't feel any wounds on his body. No matter how I checked, I couldn't find any."

Aside from being unconscious, Jiang Liujing's body was completely healthy and normal, even his magic power was still flowing. But he just couldn't wake up.

A godlike boy lay on the pristine white bed, the pale golden sunlight covering his face like honey. His long eyelashes drooped limply, casting a faint shadow on his face.

The curvature of her eyelashes was incredibly beautiful, like a butterfly briefly resting among flowers, gently folding its wings in the wind. Because it was so beautiful, it even gave people a feeling of being almost illusory and fragile.

He slept quietly in the sunshine.

The room was filled with silence.

Mo Ya's gaze moved to the head of the bed.

There, one on the left and one on the right, sat two people.

Chi hung his head, motionless.

He had been in this posture since Mo Ya saw him half an hour ago.

It seemed as if if Jiang Liujing didn't wake up, he would also turn into a statue frozen forever.

But Mo Ya still remembered the sight of Jiang Liujing falling backwards and roaring in grief.

It was hard to imagine that such an angry and desperate voice would come from Chi's mouth.

So painful.

Such a heart-wrenching wail.

Even breaking the miser's most beloved treasure in front of him is far from being possible.

Even the originally noisy streets became quiet in an instant.

Among the entire crowd, only a gray-robed figure remained unmoved. He caught the fallen young man and prepared to leave.

How could Chi tolerate this? He instantly burst out at an extremely high speed and rushed forward, with raging flames erupting behind him like his rage.

And the other figure was even faster than him.

As silent as a ghost, but with a murderous aura as cold and piercing as hell, the figure was already behind the gray-robed man in the blink of an eye.

The Grim Reaper raised his pitch-black scythe, aiming for the fatal neck. Sweeping across, he slashed down.

The gray-robed man's attention was distracted by Chi, and when he noticed him coming, it was too late. He had to dodge sideways, paying the price of an arm instead of having his neck cut off.

Xing Yue seized the opportunity and snatched Jiang Liujing's body back from the gray-robed man's arms.

He threw it back to Chi who was following him, and without saying a word, continued to chase him with the knife.

The moment they exchanged blows, Xing Yue already knew his opponent's strength. No one except those of his own level could escape that blow and remain dead.

But so what?

There was an undisguised extreme coldness in the old man's eyes.

After seven years, I finally got to see my beloved grandson, but what I saw was him being attacked and falling down.

Xing Yue could not tolerate it, let alone let it go.

Exposing his identity became a matter of no consequence at this moment. In his heart and mind, all his thoughts were filled with only one thought -

Kill him.

He will pay for his actions with his life.

Mo Ya glanced secretly at Xing Yue.

The white-haired old man is another statue sitting next to Jiang Liujing at this time.

He was shrouded in a gloom similar to Chi's, his lips pressed into a hard straight line, but the movement of reaching out to touch the cheek of the boy on the bed was full of caution, completely different from the fierce slash he had brought down in the street.

——He did kill the gray-robed man, thinking he had saved him. But he didn't.

It was as if fate was mocking him.

The Grim Reaper killed his enemy, but still could not recover his treasure.

Chu Zhou had never seen a situation where someone was alive but couldn't wake up. He frowned and asked, "What's the reason..."

He thought he would not get an answer, but he heard Chi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly speak: "Miaomiao's soul is not here."

His eyes never left Jiang Liujing, as if if he looked away for just a second, the young man would completely disappear from his sight.

Wen Xun was about to ask "How do you know?", but after seeing Chi's expression, he chose to swallow it back silently.

He knew that Chi would not lie about Jiang Liujing.

Xing Yue glanced at him and had a rough idea in his mind. Chi must have discovered the problem through the contract.

"Can you tell me where he is?" the old man asked hoarsely.

Chi clenched his fists, unwillingly, but still shook his head.

The contract between him and Jiang Liujing was still there, but it seemed to be blocked by something. He tried repeatedly in the past half hour, but he couldn't determine Jiang Liujing's location, let alone reach him.

Only the intermittent perception like the breeze told Chi that his boy was still alive in some corner of the world.

The door opened again, and this time it was Ignatius who came in, followed by several ministers.

The blond prince was handsome, completely different from the ordinary disguise he wore at school. The people in the room had already known his true identity, so they were not surprised at this moment.

As soon as Ignatius came in, he said quickly and solemnly, "We've found out. That person is one of the contestants in the competition. He belongs to the Moon Shadow Principality and is a contestant from Iskandir Academy."

"It's them again." Xing Yue's face turned cold and he was about to stand up.

The next second, Ignatius added, "However, according to other team members, this player wasn't a former student of their school. He suddenly joined the school a month before the league started and was directly appointed captain."

As an aristocratic school, he didn't think that anyone other than the royal family of the Moon Shadow Principality had the power to do such a thing to Iskandir.

Ignatius walked to the bedside, leaned over and looked at the black-haired boy lying on the bed with a peaceful expression like a sleeping beauty, and a complex look gradually appeared in his eyes.

He didn't expect that after his father and his brother, the third person to encounter such an accident would be Jiang Liujing.

But thanks to Jiang Liujing, they are now able to lock onto the target.

Ignatius whispered, "Within ten days, the Dawn Empire will declare war on the Moon Shadow Principality."

Hearing his words, everyone else raised their heads suddenly.

Andwei came from a family of generals in the Dawn Empire. He frowned and said, "So fast? Will it be..." It was a bit hasty.

Ignatius shook his head and interrupted, "I can't wait, and neither can they."

The ministers behind him all bowed their heads and remained silent, obviously already knowing his decision.

The Dawn Empire will not let go of anyone who attacks their king.

This is the dignity they must defend, even at the cost of a large amount of lives and blood.

Ignatius came for a moment and then left in a hurry. Before launching the war, he still had many matters to confirm and prepare, and had no time to leave the young prince with any sentimental memories.

After he left, Liu An, who had been sitting in the corner, suddenly spoke.

The green-haired young man raised his head and asked Chi, "East, south, west, north, can you sense his approximate location?"

Chi's eyes met Liu'an's, and for the first time, he saw an almost cold clarity in those eyes that were always cynical.

"East." He chose to trust.

"That's enough." Liu An suddenly smiled, his smile carrying a hint of heaviness and more of a carefree attitude.

He raised his hand, and golden star tracks extended from his palm, forming dozens of rings of various sizes around his body.

"Liu An, what are you doing..." Mo Ya looked at him in surprise.

"Divination, can't you see it?" Liu An was surrounded by light, his face turned visibly pale, but he still had the strength to laugh.

He said to Chi jokingly, "Remember? I found you on that spaceship seven years ago using the same method."

Chi looked at him quietly.

Liu An was still smiling.

"Actually, I lied to him at that time. I told Xiao Shuier that I predicted we would become friends in the future, so I went to find him. But that wasn't the case.

It's because the person who raised me asked me to protect him no matter what, even if it means sacrificing my life."

The young Liu An couldn't understand it at all.

The village was destroyed, all the tribesmen were killed, and the only person who saved him, raised him, and taught him divination, made his last request before his death, which was to risk his life to protect someone he had never met.

Liu An couldn't accept it.

But he looked at his master's determined eyes and finally made a vow.

"Even though I swore an oath, I'm not the type to be obedient. My plan is that if this person is not good enough, I can kill him and die with the oath."

"The footsteps that day were yours." Chi suddenly said.

What he said was incoherent, but Liu An understood it.

He smiled and said, "Yes, it was me. The person who walked to the door of your room that night was me. I know you were awake at that time."

"Did you want to kill him at that time?"

As soon as Chi said this, Xing Yue's eyes turned cold instantly.

Liu An shook his head: "No, I gave up the idea the first time I saw him."

He had never felt the existence of fate so strongly in a person.

Liu An was predicting fate and pursuing destiny, so he was inevitably attracted by the radiance of Jiang Liujing, and then he was conquered.

"At that time, I was more out of reluctance." He lowered his eyes and smiled.

I had clearly prepared myself mentally before coming here, and had warned myself eight hundred times that I absolutely could not accept this person, but after just one encounter, the malice in my heart dissipated on its own.

The young man seemed like a naturally shining candle in the world, attracting moths that were eager to fly towards him.

"Don't get me wrong, although my initial motives were bad, I really meant it when I said I wanted to be friends with him."

Liu An was still smiling, but traces of bright red blood were seeping from the corners of his lips.

Mo Ya's expression changed. He brought him some water and a towel, but Liu An refused and said, "It's okay. If you try to pry into the fate of someone you shouldn't, you'll always have to pay a price."

He also lied to Jiang Liujing and others about one thing.

Liu An is actually very good at fortune-telling.

He is a genius fortune teller whose talent is much greater than that of Cassian and Calloway.

So Calloway didn't dare to predict fate, he dared.

The rotating star trails gradually stabilized, and gradually formed the shape of a map in mid-air.

Chu Zhou and Wen Xun recognized him at a glance.

"Dongli."

"I can't divine a more specific location. There is a force isolating his existence." Liu An coughed a few times and looked at the star map with an unhappy expression.

Xing Yue said to him in a deep voice: "Thank you."

He could see that the young man had paid a heavy price to achieve this result.

He took out a fruit that he had plucked from Sang Mo from the space prop, handed it to Liu An to compensate for the loss, and then turned to look at Chi.

Chi nodded.

The young man's brows were still gloomy, but compared to before, a firmer determination lit up his eyes, and there seemed to be a blazing fire in his red pupils.

"Let's go. This time, we must bring him back intact."
