Chapter 723: Beauty Lost, Coffin Carrying Expedition (7)

But at least for Su Yun, there was no other way. This was no different from a huge gamble. It was a gamble on whether he had entered the supernatural state again when he was transforming into a barbarian.
Although entering the supernatural state for the second time was very rare among the ancients, it was not unheard of. For example, Wang Chongyang had once successfully entered the supernatural state for the second time and used this to comprehend the principle of the Dao Ancestor not appearing.
And a virtuous person like Lao Tzu will only have a higher chance! In addition, he had gone to the west to transform into a Hu. If he did not enter the supernatural realm for the second time, how could he expiate the barbarians and preach?
Therefore, Su Yun quickly made a decision. Since Great Xia no longer had a chance, he might as well make a trip to Yinfan to try his luck.
Seeing that he was only a step away from breaking through, Su Yun was unwilling to give up. After making up his mind, a determined expression flashed across Su Yun’s eyes. Then, he turned around and bowed deeply to the Laojun Platform. This was his heartfelt admiration for this Saint.
However, at that moment, Su Yun’s phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone in confusion, but when he saw the caller ID, he immediately frowned and had a bad feeling. “Uncle Xu, did something happen?”
It was Xu Kui. After hearing Su Yun’s voice, Xu Kui said solemnly, “Su Yun, Jiajia can’t make it anymore ”
Su Yun stood rooted to the ground as if he had been struck by lightning. The news he did not want to hear the most had happened. Xu Kui’s voice was filled with suppressed sorrow. This made Su Yun’s heart seem to pause for a few seconds.
He was just one step away from success, but Jiajia couldn’t wait anymore
After hanging up, Su Yun gritted his teeth and quickly walked down the stage. He had to go back and see Xu Jiajia with his own eyes!
“Hello, Combat Wolf, I need a military helicopter.”
A few hours later, Su Yun returned to the familiar Hibiscus City. He rushed straight to Xu Kui’s house. When Su Yun appeared at the door of the house, he noticed that there was a coffin in Xu Kui’s courtyard.
The black coffin stung Su Yun’s eyes, causing him to involuntarily slow down. Many people, including Xu Kui, surrounded the coffin. All of them had sorrow on their faces. This made Su Yun vaguely realize something, but he could not accept it.
The distance from the door to the coffin was not too long, but Su Yun seemed to have walked for a century. He walked weakly through the crowd to the coffin. When he saw Xu Jiajia lying in the coffin with her eyes closed and her face pale, Su Yun felt a rumble in his mind.
Xu Jiajia’s mother was crying beside the coffin, calling Xu Jiajia’s name over and over again.
Xu Kui stood with many people in military uniforms. His expression was heavy, and tears welled up in his eyes.
“How could this be ”
Su Yun bent down in a daze and looked at Xu Jiajia, who was lying in the coffin. His heart ached. He reached out and gently held Xu Jiajia’s hand. Other than the cold touch, there were no signs of life to Su Yun.
Su Yun closed his eyes in pain. At that moment, he finally understood what it meant to feel as if his heart was being cut by a knife. The pain that came from his heart and physiology made Su Yun feel as if even his breathing was causing his entire body to hurt.
Xu Kui slowly came to Su Yun’s side and patted his shoulder.
“I know you’ve tried your best. When Jiajia was awake, she kept telling us that with you accompanying her on this journey, she no longer had any regrets.”
For the first time, Xu Kui’s voice choked. Perhaps no one could truly understand how sad he was at this moment.
Su Yun did not say anything. He only grabbed Xu Jiajia’s hand tightly. Perhaps this way, he could keep her by his side. However, at this moment, Su Yun’s index finger accidentally touched Xu Jiajia’s pulse.
Su Yun, who had been in a supernatural state, suddenly sensed that Xu Jiajia’s pulse was still beating slightly, although this meridian was very weak and could not even support a person’s life force.
In other words, before everyone died, they would have this weak life force. It was equivalent to three soul flames swaying and about to extinguish, but there was still a small flame left. However, that was no different from dying. In the eyes of ordinary people, they were already dead.
However, this made Su Yun’s eyes widen.
No! He could not give up just like that. There might be a way!
At this thought, Su Yun suddenly put down his backpack. When the zipper opened, the white monkey quickly jumped out. All along, Xu Jiajia had been the one taking care of the white monkey, and the white monkey had fallen asleep in Xu Jiajia’s arms countless times. Therefore, when he saw Xu Jiajia lying in the coffin, the white monkey immediately squeaked at him anxiously.
This time, there was no response to his cry. Coupled with the sadness of the surrounding people, even the white monkey seemed to have realized something and tears flowed from the corners of its eyes.
Su Yun did not pay attention to the monkey at all. He quickly took out 13 golden needles from his backpack. Previously, when he was traveling with Xu Jiajia, Su Yun always used these 13 golden needles to relieve Xu Jiajia’s illness.
