CHAPTER 499: 499 WARMTH, ATTACHMENT, RELUCTANCE TO PART

With the help of the Star Illusion Thousand Machine, Mu Hanyan once again held on from the brink of death. However, her vitality continued to fade, drawing her ever closer to death.

"I can’t die, don’t forget our score hasn’t been settled yet," seeing Mu Hanyan’s exhaustion akin to a spent lamp, Ye Yanran said with a sobbing voice.

Ye Yanran bit her teeth, as if making an important decision, took out a necklace from her chest. The necklace, worn close to the skin, was obviously very precious.

At one end of the necklace, there was a chain pendant shaped like a small, exquisitely crafted vase.

Stroking the pendant, Ye Yanran’s gaze filled with warmth and affection, seemingly reluctant but she ultimately resolutely opened the even more intricate stopper at the top and then brought it to Mu Hanyan’s lips.

A drop of spring water fell into her mouth and down her throat. In an instant, a vigorous lifeforce surged throughout Mu Hanyan’s body; her Life Force, which had already been greatly depleted, was completely restored in a flash. Every part of her body, even her pores, was filled with vitality, as though she had been reborn.

What... what is this! Mu Hanyan was stunned.

Just a single drop of spring water possessed such a tremendous life force; she had never heard of such a strange treasure in both of her lifetimes.

Seeing that Mu Hanyan’s complexion had regained its rosiness, Ye Yanran finally let out a sigh of relief and immediately formed another Hand Formation. Although Mu Hanyan’s life was temporarily saved, if the Exotic Beast Egg was not taken away, her vitality would ultimately run out.

This time, Ye Yanran’s Hand Formation was even slower and more complex, with even the slightest tremble of her fingers carrying a Mysterious and beautiful rhythm.

And from her mouth came a soft chant.

It was a language that Mu Hanyan had never heard before, extremely abstruse and difficult to pronounce, but paired with her ethereal and far-reaching voice and mystical intonation, each syllable took on a wonderful rhythm, as though they were the legendary sounds of divine singing.

Yet her complexion turned exceptionally pale, sweat dripping from her forehead like raindrops, her whole body even trembling slightly.

Clearly, this set of more complex and cumbersome Hand Formations, along with the chant like celestial music, was greatly taxing for her. Mu Hanyan did not even know how she managed to perform this Hand Formation without any cultivation and the ability to utilize Qi.

The Barrier surrounding the Exotic Beast Egg continued to shrink and condense until, at the moment Ye Yanran performed the final Hand Formation and sang the last syllable, the Barrier suddenly solidified as if gaining substance, tightly wrapping around the Exotic Beast Egg and severing the connection with Mu Hanyan, dropping it to the ground with a thud.

A smile appeared on Ye Yanran’s face, her vision darkened, and she fell toward the ground.

Although Mu Hanyan had lost all Qi, her vitality had been completely restored and she quickly reached out to support her.

"How are you feeling?" asked Mu Hanyan with concern.

"It’s nothing, I won’t die," Ye Yanran steadied herself, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said somewhat sullenly, "I came here to settle the score, but almost ended up sacrificing myself. You spared me twice before, and I didn’t kick you when you were down this time. We’re even now."

"We’re not even, I still owe you," Mu Hanyan said, looking deeply at Ye Yanran.

She could feel that Ye Yanran was extremely weak at that moment, having given her all to save her, especially the mysterious spring water in the pendant, which was invaluable.
