Ling Feng sensed something odd in the words: "Could you clarify, senior? Do you mean..."
"Of course, I want you to guard Jilan!" Zi Yue said indifferently. "Jilan is my junior, and I should have been the one to protect her and let her grow. But now... I've used the Bloodline Seal, and my Divine Blood's power is receding!"
"Once the Divine Blood recedes to a certain point, I won't be able to maintain a living state!" Zi Yue sighed softly.
Ling Feng curiously asked: "Can't you just undo the Bloodline Seal?"
"Once the Bloodline Seal is imposed, it takes at least three days to unlock it, and by then, I fear I will already be a corpse!" Zi Yue smiled and said, "But my wish has been fulfilled, my great vendetta avenged, so even dying is worthwhile!"
Ling Feng blinked, glanced at the broken coffin in the distance, and touched his nose saying: "Then... senior, why not choose to merge with your body?"
