Chapter 1678: One Step Away
His anger had already reached its peak, but tenderness and affection occupied every inch of his thoughts.
He wouldnt let a single person who had hurt Xier, who had made Xier cry, go unpunished. He would definitely make them pay a painful price.
From now on, he would cherish the girl in front of him. One day, he believed he could help her heal from her pain. One day, her smile would shine brightly again.
Nangong Yu thought so and flew toward Hexi faster and faster.
As his hand was about to reach Hexis scarred and bloody little hand, a clicking sound suddenly came from the lower end of the purple vine Nangong Yu held.
Hexis eyes widened suddenly. Deep in her Divine Sense, she felt the pain and fear transmitted by Purple Abyss Vine.
It was as if there was an invisible force tearing the vine hanging in the air into two.
Nangong Yu! Hexi shouted hoarsely.
She plummeted in haste, falling continuously, without stopping.
Xier!
Nangong Yus eyes turned red instantly. Dark black spiritual power surged out as if he was about to give up his life, with his aura filling up the surrounding air.
His speed was getting faster and faster, faster than the speed of sound, so fast that a crack seemed to be torn out of the fabric of air.
Their hands got closer and closer. Nangong Yu could already feel the icy coldness at the tips of Hexis fingers.
Xier, hold my hands!
The next moment, within the massive vortex, a surge of fire turned into a burning dragon, sweeping up Hexi and dragging her down into the abyss.
At the moment when the two hands came into contact, they were pulled apart. It was only one step away, but it felt like the distance between heaven and hell.
A scorching breath washed over her. Hexi realized that death was closer to her than ever before. It was so close that she no longer had the strength to resist, so close that the call of the grim reaper was calling her right by her ear.
Crystal tears rolled down her cheeks. Hexi arched her eyebrows and smiled brightly, Yu, I love you!
Nangong Yu, I love you. Meeting you in this lifetime and promising to spend it together, I have no more regrets!
Under the night sky, the moon shone beautifully. The stars sparkled, while the blazing firelight was gradually extinguished by the gentle evening breeze.
However, all of this paled in comparison to the girl with black hair and red attire, her eyes shimmering with tears, and a smile that could captivate a city.
The tongue of fire surged up with a roar, rising even higher, instantly engulfing the girls frail figure, and pulling her into the sea of molten lava.
No!
The heart-rending roar, carrying all-destroying pain and despair, resounded throughout the valley.
Nangong Yu rushed down like crazy. He didnt care about the devouring vortex or the scorching lava below. He just wanted to catch the falling woman: the only love of his life.
However, when Nangong Yu approached the vortex, a ripple appeared in the air.
The vortex closed instantly. The sea of lava disappeared, leaving only the afterimage in the air.
Xi Yue! Xi Yue!
Screams rang out one after another, resembling the mournful cries of a cuckoo weeping tears of blood, echoing like hoarse and almost prayer-like weeping in the bottomless abyss beneath the Cang Mountain.
Nangong Yu kept searching everywhere at the bottom of the cliff like crazy, but there was nothing! There was no sea of lava and no trace of Xi Yue.
At this moment, a crackling sound suddenly surfaced in his mind.
