X-Dragon Era

Fluttering... fluttering... fluttering...

Through a hazy blur, Yi Luo Xiang felt as if she had no weight at all, floating in the sky... Above her, there hovered a bright orb, and she drifted towards it...

"How... am I going to die?" Touching the orb that gave her an incomparable sense of intimacy, Yi Luo Xiang soberly realized her predicament.

Suddenly, darkness swept over, and the orb was obscured. Yi Luo Xiang's floating consciousness instantly fell back into her body, and she once again felt her flesh.

In the blur, Yi Luo Xiang sensed a mysterious sweet liquid pouring into her mouth, then down her throat, filling her empty stomach. With the entrance of this fluid, her consciousness gradually cleared...

Yi Luo Xiang slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was the blazing sun hanging above the well mouth... Surely, the bright orb she had seen in her daze must have been the sun, just an illusion after all.

However, speaking of illusions, what was that incredibly sweet thing that flowed into her mouth just now? Was that an illusion too? But if it was, why did she come around?

Gradually, Xin Yun's pale face appeared before her, and at the same time, Yi Luo Xiang clearly felt something was stuffed in her mouth.

In confusion, Yi Luo Xiang looked down to find Xin Yun's wrist placed upon her mouth... the liquid continued to gush fluidly. This... this is...

At this moment, even if Yi Luo Xiang were a fool, she probably would have realized what had been streaming into her. It was Xin Yun's blood!

Upon realizing this fact, Yi Luo Xiang began to struggle desperately, but alas... she was far too weak and hardly had any strength left for struggle, barely managing to twitch.

On the other hand, seeing that Yi Luo Xiang had finally woken up, Xin Yun smiled foolishly, licked his chapped lips, and with a hoarse voice, he said, "Listen to me, don't move, I don't have much strength left. Don't waste my blood, whatever happens, survive."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang instantly ceased struggling. Yes... she could not waste Xin Yun's goodwill. The wound had already been made, and if she let this blood flow away, how could she be worthy of Xin Yun's sacrifice?

Time slowly passed... Xin Yun's wrist stopped bleeding, and after drinking the blood, Yi Luo Xiang's spirits lifted once again. However, conversely, Xin Yun's energy rapidly waned.

"Why! Why are you so good to me..." Watching Xin Yun deteriorate, Yi Luo Xiang cried, questioned... In truth, she had wanted to ask this for a long time but never knew how to start. But now she was clear, if she didn't ask, she might never have the chance again.

But at this moment, Xin Yun's consciousness was blurred. Although the blood loss was not significant, it's important to know what kind of torment he had endured over the past dozen days. If not for his iron-willed past life, he would never have lasted until now.

Looking into Yi Luo Xiang's tear-filled eyes, Xin Yun felt as though he had returned to his previous life. Yes... In his previous life, she too had such a pair of eyes.

Obsessively staring into these eyes, in an instant... the Yi Luo Xiang on the bed transformed into the breathtakingly beautiful dragon of the last era—Flash Butterfly Yi Luo Xiang!

Gently grasping Yi Luo Xiang's small hand, at this moment... Xin Yun's consciousness was utterly muddled. Staring infatuatedly at those large eyes, Xin Yun murmured with sincerity, "Do you know, Yi Luo Xiang, I have loved you for a long time? I truly love you so much. For you, I am willing to do anything.

I don't ask for your love in return; I just want to look at you like this, protect you, that's enough for me, you, you..."

He paused halfway through his words, as Xin Yun's voice suddenly stopped, and his body lost sensation, collapsing onto the bed. Watching Xin Yun fall beside her, Yi Luo Xiang's mind echoed with his words, as if a thunderclap had resounded...

Love? Yi Luo Xiang didn't truly understand what love was, but... Xin Yun had already defined the meaning of love with his actions. What is love? Love is thinking about the other wholeheartedly, even sacrificing one's life, to ensure the other lives well, not seeking any return, just silently protecting—that is love?

Looking at Xin Yun, who had fallen into a coma, Yi Luo Xiang was genuinely touched. If... if this is what love is, then she could respond in kind, forever thinking only of him, even sacrificing her life to ensure his well-being, not seeking any return but to silently protect—is that how it is?

Yi Luo Xiang smiled, a sweet smile, and amidst that smile, Yi Luo Xiang slowly closed her eyes. Since he so desperately wished for her to live, then... she must strive to survive. Even if Xin Yun died, she would live on well because... that was Xin Yun's greatest wish. She must fulfill it, no matter what, she had to fulfill it!

A day passed, and there were two more days until the rescue team would arrive. After being unconscious for over five hours, Xin Yun finally woke up. Anxiously lifting his head to see Yi Luo Xiang sleeping peacefully, Xin Yun breathed a sigh of relief. The hardship was almost over, but the closer to the end, the harder it was to endure. No matter what, they had to get through these two days...

Time slowly ebbed away, and finally... the sun appeared again over the mouth of the well. Every day at this time, it was the most torturous, especially under their current circumstances. The scorching sun was like an executioner, not only raising one's body temperature but also taking away a lot of water from the body. Without timely replenishment, one would certainly die.

Xin Yun was okay, his will was undoubtedly strong, and he hadn't lost as much blood as Yi Luo Xiang, nor had he experienced that degree of shock. But Yi Luo Xiang was different. If she was left to the sun's scorching without replenishing her fluids, she probably wouldn't last until the sun moved away.

Even though his body was already severely depleted, Xin Yun had no choice but to rise again, using his body to shield Yi Luo Xiang from the sunlight. At the same time, Xin Yun bit into his own wrist again, feeding his fresh blood into her mouth.

Feeling the warmth of the liquid, Yi Luo Xiang woke up once more. This time... before her wasn't the dazzling sun, but looking at Xin Yun's figure, not particularly tall or broad, but blocking the sun for her, she felt he was more dazzling than the sun itself, almost too bright to look at!

As the blood continued to drain from him, Xin Yun's brain grew increasingly dull, waves of dizziness assaulting his mind. If he could, he'd wish to fall down then and there, but he knew he couldn't. No matter what, he had to hold out until the sun moved past the well's opening, otherwise all his efforts would be in vain, and Yi Luo Xiang would surely die...

Time slowly trickled by. Watching Xin Yun's swaying figure that refused to collapse, Yi Luo Xiang wanted to cry. But even tears were a luxury now—she would not allow herself to cry because tears would also take a lot of water from her body. At this moment... she just focused on watching Xin Yun, intent on memorizing everything, imprinting it in her mind.

With such an experience, even if she died immediately, her life would not have been in vain, for once in this world... someone had loved her so deeply.

"Thump..." It was uncertain how long he held on, but the sun had already moved from the well's opening. Finally... Xin Yun's body, which had long since lost consciousness, collapsed under Yi Luo Xiang's gaze, filled with profound sadness, like a falling gold mountain, a collapsing jade pillar...
