Chapter 494 Worth Trading My Life For

Hearing Ling Yi's question, Adele remained silent for a moment before speaking again: "And then there's the matter that followed..."

What followed was about spring, something that saddened Adele even more than her own death, something she didn't want to mention.

Adele didn't speak, but simply raised her hand and waved it. As her power dissipated, the stopped scene resumed.

Mingguang only gave Yingchuan and Xue Wenyao a year. If the two of them were to search, a year might not be enough. However, Mingguang's method allowed Chunri to return to the snowy region a month later.

Before Chunri returned, Yingchuan, in league with the royal family behind Xuewenyao, told the people of Xueyu that Ade had slaughtered them for her own selfish reasons, and that Chunri had become Ade's accomplice. He warned that if the people of Xueyu saw Chunri, they must inform the temple and the royal family immediately.

Both the royal family and the temple of the Snowfield said so, and since they had never seen the demon, the people completely believed what the royal family and the temple said. So when the spring returned to the Snowfield and tried to tell the people the truth, no one believed him at all.

The people did not believe Chunri's words and immediately informed the royal family and the temple of Chunri's whereabouts. The royal family dispatched troops and the temple sent disciples to search for Chunri throughout the snowy region.

Haruhi possesses the necklace and power given to her by Adele. As long as she remains hidden, the royal family and the temple will not find her easily. However, Haruhi returned to save Adele's body, and she cannot hide forever. After hiding for a while, she still went to the temple.

Although Haruhi possessed the power given to her by Adele, it was not her own power after all, and she had not had much time to adapt to it after receiving it, so she was unable to control it at will and was quickly defeated in battle.

Haruhi was severely injured and collapsed in a disheveled state before the divine jade that sealed Adele.

Ying Chuan stepped forward, looked at Chunri covered in blood, and sighed, "You shouldn't have told her."

"If you hadn't chosen her back then, you wouldn't be in this predicament today."

Looking at the person in front of her in spring, she didn't want to say anything.

She once thought her father was the most powerful and kindest person in the world, but even such a good person was willing to use her and the lives of ordinary people to blackmail her for power.

From the day it happened until now, Chunri had long been disappointed. Now, looking at Yingchuan, she neither begged for mercy nor questioned him angrily, but calmly asked, "Are you going to kill me?"

Ying Chuan looked at Chun Ri but did not answer immediately.

Ying Chuan truly loved this daughter, which is why he was caught off guard when he and Xue Wenyao were making their plans and she overheard them. However, he never expected that after overhearing, she would not choose him, the father who had cherished and protected her, but instead chose Ade, an outsider. Even more unexpectedly, she knew it was a trap, but still chose to come back.

"Spring Day," Ying Chuan asked in a deep voice, "Is she more important to you than your father, more important than your own life?"

Upon hearing this, Haruhi calmly replied, "When you used my life to threaten her, didn't that mean that power was more important to you than me?"

Chunri looked at Yingchuan: "You are my father. When you used me to blackmail her, it shows that you chose power. She is just my friend, but she once saved my life, and when you blackmailed her, she chose to compromise for me and for the people."

"So even if it's just her body, it's worth my life for." After saying that, Chunri endured her injuries and leaped up, leaning back against the divine jade. She then poured all her power into the necklace around her neck. The gem on the necklace absorbed the power and flashed with a green light.

The light enveloped Spring Sun and Divine Jade, but when the light dissipated, Spring Sun and Divine Jade were gone.

Xue Wenyao, who was standing to the side, was shocked when he saw this and quickly walked to Ying Chuan's side: "Where did he go?"

Before Ying Chuan could answer, Xue Wenyao was about to call for people to chase after them.

"No need." Ying Chuan looked ahead, recalling what Chunri had said, and stopped thinking about it. He turned to Xue Wenyao and asked, "We don't even know where that wisp of spiritual light took people. How are we supposed to find them?"

"Does the Palace Master mean to just let it go like this?" Xue Wenyao stared at Ying Chuan: "Has the Palace Master forgotten the orders given by the God Lord?"

“Springtime won’t survive. If you’re worried, you can go and look at her soul lamp.” Ying Chuan said, “If you’re really worried and want to take people to look for her, I won’t stop you.” After saying that, Ying Chuan didn’t say anything more and turned to leave.
