Courtyard.
Chu Muyun picked up the tree branch in his hand frozen into an ice pop, lightly knocking it on the ground.
Pata——
The tree branch broke into three sections, carrying ice dregs falling into the Brazier, extinguishing the last wisp of fiery red embers.
The empty Courtyard fell into icy cold deathly silence. The Brazier that originally could still barely provide warmth, at this moment was also frozen by cold frost. Whimpering wind sounds accompanied by rumbling, echoed outside the courtyard wall...
"The aurora disappeared." Bai Ye gently raised his head. The both eyes beneath the peaked cap looked towards the sky, there was already completely empty without a single thing.
"En."
"Is she still alive?"
Chu Muyun's fingers, lightly rested on the neck of the woman beside the stove. The icy cold skin surface already hadn't had any heat existing for a long time... Under the cold wave blowing from the Forbidden Sea, even leaning against the stove, she ultimately was still frozen to death.
Bai Ye sighed a breath, slowly standing up. The silver Snake Earrings slightly swayed. He turned his head looking outside the door.
"The time has come, let's go."
"I will go change clothes." Chu Muyun turned around returning to the room.
Half a minute later, Chu Muyun returned into the Courtyard. He at this moment had already taken off that suit of Woolen Overcoat and vest unchanged for a thousand years. Replacing it, was a solemn and respectful black Suit... He gently smoothed the wrinkles on the black tie. Stepping on a pair of black leather shoes, he appeared especially thin and weak in this icy cold freezing wind.
He solemnly took out a black Poker card from under the table, putting it into the hidden pocket on his left chest, only leaving the height of one letter outside. Looking over from afar, it looked like it thoroughly merged into one body with the Suit.
On the upper left corner of that Poker card, also the only part exposed outside the Suit pocket, was a white "7".
"What about you? Are you not changing?" Chu Muyun looked towards Bai Ye.
Bai Ye slightly smiled. He casually snapped his fingers. The clothes on his body automatically swapped into the same black Suit. On his chest, similarly there was a black Playing Card.
It's just that, the corner was a white font "Q".
Bai Ye tugged the black tie, returning it upright to an appropriate position, faintly speaking: "Let's go."
The piercingly cold wind blew the corners of the Suit jacket up. Black jacket, black tie, black leather shoes... They stood before the Courtyard door sealed in ice, expressions serious and solemn, like they were about to go attend a funeral.
Chu Muyun pushed open the main door of the Courtyard. Just wanting to walk out, he then saw a familiar figure currently slowly walking towards here.
"Senior Chu, Senior Bai Ye?"
Jian Changsheng saw the two people entirely in black, vacancy emerging in his eyes. "You guys... whose funeral are you going to attend?"
"You finally came back, we were just planning to go find you." Chu Muyun gave way to a path, pointing at a certain room. "Your clothes are already prepared, go change into them."
"Clothes?" Jian Changsheng became increasingly confused. "The same as you guys? Wearing this little bit in this weather... will be frozen to death right?"
"Cut the crap, quickly go change into it."
"Oh..."
Although Jian Changsheng was totally clueless, but still honestly and obediently returned to the room to change clothes. A moment later wearing the same style black Suit walking out from within, just that holding a tie in his hand, seemingly didn't know how to tie it.
Chu Muyun walked to his front, taking over the tie, starting to meticulously and completely thread and insert it for him.
"Senior Chu, what are we going to do?" Jian Changsheng couldn't help but ask.
Chu Muyun gently pulled the tie well, folding it beneath the Suit. He slowly turned his head looking at this deathly silent and soundless city, speaking with a complex expression.
"...Go witness the perishing of a Realm."
...
Outside Aurora City.
A black figure flew and swept out from the shattered city gate like electricity!
He unhesitatingly charged out of Aurora City, crashing into the area of the Forbidden Sea, madly running straight towards that suit of white clothes gradually surrounded by Calamities!
Oddly shaped Calamities one by one jumped out from beneath the mirror-like seawater, attempting to block his figure. But Tan Xin's gaze from beginning to end didn't move away from Lord of the Aurora's body. He took a deep breath, his flying running sole forcefully stepping on the sea surface!
"Roll for me!!"
The formless Domain opened anew. This instant, the taboo Curse Runes spread all over the sea surface, were just like encountering a tyrannical repulsive force, forcibly being melted and obliterated. Those Calamity figures charging towards him also suddenly paused, limply and powerlessly plunging into the seawater.
Under Tan Xin's [Ceasefire], unexpectedly even Calamities were affected. He was just like an eraser erasing everything, forcibly wiping out a path of vacuum from inside Aurora City!
Outside hundreds of meters away from him,
Lord of the Aurora's figure swayed, powerlessly half-kneeling on the sea surface, intensely coughing. Every coughing sound brought out large patches of scarlet red fresh blood, his Aura also becoming increasingly weak and rapid.
"He... is about to die..."
"He killed... too many... Lords... kill him... revenge..."
"Let the Forbidden Flower... bloom in full... on his corpse..."
Hoarse murmurs resembled a tsunami, swarming and ringing out around Lord of the Aurora. Those figures flowing with black Curse Runes lunged towards Lord of the Aurora like crazy, seemingly preparing to just tear him into pieces like this!
Lord of the Aurora half-kneeled on the ground. He at this moment already had no strength to move again. His gradually turning gray and dark eyes looked towards that black-clothed figure fighting his way over from Aurora City, taking a deep breath, a stroke of sharp light erupting anew in the depths of his eyes!
"Kill me... you guys are still not worthy!"
Boom!!!
Thousands and tens of thousands of bolts of thunder crashed down anew, resembling a thunder pool dividing Lord of the Aurora and the Calamities behind him. The flashing thunder light reflected on that pale cheek. This was the last time he could fight for and get.
Finally, he saw that suit of black clothes wildly roll to his front!
"Lord of the Aurora." Tan Xin whose whole body was blood spoke. "...I've come."
He opened the Black Box, putting on the Hand of Salvation. Fine electrical arcs coiled on its surface, letting out a low humming sound.
Lord of the Aurora half-kneeled before the thunder pool, a stroke of smiling intent hooking up on the pale corner of his mouth,
"...Came exactly in time."
Tan Xin lifted the Hand of Salvation up, aiming at Lord of the Aurora's heart. But right at this time, he saw Lord of the Aurora's eyes, his actions were somewhat hesitant again...
"What? Aren't you going to kill me, and snatch away my soul?" Lord of the Aurora calmly spoke, "Still not making a move... what are you waiting for?"
"You..."
In Tan Xin's mind, recalled anew the figure of Lord of the Aurora charging alone into the Forbidden Sea just now, guilt and intolerance emerging in his eyes. "Do you still have anything you want to say?"
Lord of the Aurora smiled. Behind him echoed the crazy hissing roars of the Calamities, and the furious roars of thunder. He slowly lifted his palm, grabbing the Hand of Salvation, and then...
Forcefully piercing into his own chest!
Scarlet red fresh blood soaked the great earth. His soul transformed into a magnetic field, in this moment swarming to pour into the Hand of Salvation. Resplendent and piercingly eye-catching aurora was like grand fireworks, gradually drowning his and Tan Xin's figures within it...
At the same time, Lord of the Aurora's murmur, rang out from within the light:
"Aurora, will never fade away."
