4386 The Other Side 355

"You must be Yun Tianyou?" The young man sneered sinisterly as he walked towards him. "How long are you going to forcibly occupy this body?"

"Forcibly occupy?" Youyou laughed in spite of his anger. "What do you mean by forcibly occupy? This is my body in the first place. You should never have existed!"

"Oh? Why shouldn't I exist?" There was a cruel glint in the young man's eyes as he roared hysterically, "Why should you exist when I shouldn't?! Then, according to your logic, this idiot shouldn't exist either!"

Youyou knew that the "idiot" the boy was referring to was Liang Yishan, who was now dead, and his fury grew!

"You're… really unreasonable!"

The young man closed in on him. "I don't care what you say. All I know is that once I kill you and everyone else, this body will belong to me!"

"What makes you think so?" Youyou said coldly, "I won't let you have your way!"

"You won't let me have my way?!" The young man's expression was cold. "These words are just words! If you're inferior to me, what can you use to fight me?!" As the young man spoke, he bent down and yanked the candlestick out of Liang Yishan's body, then started to close in on Youyou!

"Go to hell!" The young man roared and plunged the candlestick towards him!

Youyou could not retreat in time. He watched helplessly as the candlestick was about to pierce his brow…

When the candlestick was no more than an inch from his brow, the young man's body stiffened violently, and his bloodshot, hideous eyes went still.

Youyou widened his eyes in surprise. Then, tossing all caution to the wind, he snatched the candlestick from the young man's hand.

The young man staggered. He tried to turn around to see what was going on, but in the next second, his body collapsed.

Behind him, Gong Fan, face covered in blood and panting heavily as he looked at the young man's fallen figure, dropped to his knees weakly. At the same time, the vase in his hand fell to the ground and shattered.

"Gong Fan!" Youyou dropped the candlestick and lunged at him, catching his arm.

"How are you feeling? Are you alright?

"Are… are you okay…?" Even now, Gong Fan was still concerned about Youyou's safety.

"I—I'm fine. How about you? How are you feeling?"

"Bleeding a little. I'm fine." Gong Fan was very stubborn, but Youyou's heart ached. At this moment, his face was covered in blood, so much so that it dyed his eyes red.

"Where's Shanshan?"

When they got back to Shanshan's side, Youyou realized that she had lost her breath. Her eyes were wide and wistful. Gong Fan was in disbelief. He didn't know what had happened. He'd only heard a cry of surprise, but he didn't expect Shanshan to have been attacked.

He held his hand to her nose and listened for a pulse. It was still.

"Shanshan…" For some reason, even though he hadn't spent much time with Shanshan, he still felt a trace of heartache. Youyou took a deep breath. Instead of crying, he calmly closed her eyes with his hands and held her to himself.

"Shanshan… I'm sorry… I promise you, I'll be braver in the future."

Shanshan's eyes fell shut. Her expression was still. Gradually, her body became transparent. Then, slowly, she turned into specks of starlight and disappeared from his arms.
