Chapter 397 Death
The "Bai Yanren" with a face full of cracks is like a broken porcelain, just like the world.
Bai Yanliang did not dodge this strange situation, and did not even think about escaping.
He originally had the idea of unraveling all the secrets of Wu Ji and ending An Abyss.
But the door opened by [Ship sailing under the moon, people drowning in the water] made him completely lost.
It wasn't until this moment that Bai Yanliang realized that he might...not be a real human being at all.
No, maybe he had already realized it in his heart, but he just didn't want to admit it.
How can anyone in this world not have mood swings?
How can someone look at themselves as if from a "God's perspective"?
His memory is obviously so good. He can never forget the books he has read and the people and things he has met. But why can't he remember his brother's life before the accident that night?
There is only one way to explain it——
His memory... basically started from that day.
I have experienced so many lives and deaths, and I have seen so many strange powers.
Bai Yanliang was almost certain that his brother must have been performing some kind of ritual that night, and there was a high probability that something went wrong in that ritual, which was why he ended up like that.
Bai Yanliang looked at his "brother" in front of him, his eyes seemed blurred.
There is indeed a pair of brothers named Bai Yanliang and Bai Yanliang in this world, but... the "Bai Yanliang" of those brothers is not him at this time.
When Bai Yanliang saw "himself" in this world for the first time, Bai Yanliang's brain felt like an electric shock. A certain area inside was illuminated, and some distant but clear memories were recalled by him.
At that time, "I" was about the same age as in this world, but it seemed that my health had been poor since childhood, and I often had nosebleeds for no apparent reason.
Not to mention going to school, he rarely even left the house. Because he was too weak, he almost stayed in bed and was taken care of by Bai Yanren.
Until one day, the little boy named Bai Yanliang died.
After realizing this, Bai Yanliang's inner shake was so strong that it directly affected his entire body.
He doesn't know who he is, Bai Yanliang?
No...Bai Yanliang has died of illness.
I am...
It's my brother... he summoned him in some way... a strange soul.
Who am I?
He has completely lost his identity and does not know the meaning and value of his existence.
Looking back, I wonder why I was so obsessed with uncovering the truth behind Yan Ren's death? Because he knows very well that if he doesn't find something to do for himself, and someone to imitate... he won't know anything at all, and he won't want to do anything.
This...is simply not the mentality of a living person.
"Yanliang..."
The cracks in Bai Yanren's body became more numerous after Bai Yanliang realized this.
"Some people say...I betrayed everyone..."
"Some people also say...I delayed the arrival of the Mist Realm for ten years and saved everyone..."
Bai Yanren's state is very strange. He is obviously just a person in this "false" world, but he seems to have memories from other timelines.
"Yanliang..." Bai Yanren's eyes were more complicated than the most difficult problem Bai Yanliang had ever encountered.
"I can't tell you more. What you see at this moment is just an opportunity left by borrowing the power of the key to forcefully walk out of time."
"Opportunity..." Bai Yanliang looked at him blankly.
"Well... the real me has been dead for ten years," Bai Yanren's voice sounded a little regretful, but also a little relieved. There were more and more cracks in the world and on him, "Time is running out, please Just hold on a little longer..."
"This world can only exist based on your will." Bai Yanren said something Bai Yanliang had never thought of.
"The Nine Hells opened, and the mist realm descended..." Bai Yanren looked out the window. The sky was already covered with black and red cracks, but it had a different kind of eerie beauty.
"Someone lied...a big lie!" Bai Yanren's voice was filled with extremely rare anger.
"Yanliang...you have to kill everyone who should be dead, remember, no matter who it is!"
There was a strange shattering sound coming from his body.
"All the people you have confirmed are dead, if you see them again, no matter how normal or familiar they are, you must... kill them!"
Bai Yanliang, who was already shaken, could only mechanically write down what his "brother" said at this moment.
At this time, he was completely unable to judge the authenticity and could not respond.
He has even lost any purpose to move on and live.
But he still looked at his "brother" subconsciously. Does this strange space exist based on the power of the key and his own will?
Then the meaning of its existence is to let "brother" convey these words to himself at this time...
"Yanliang..." Bai Yanren's body began to disintegrate from his arms, turning into wisps of blood mist floating in the air. "Ten years ago..."
"I prevent the mist from coming..."
"Bring you back to life..."
"Did it on the same night..."
"I can't tell His name, the answer can only be found by yourself."
The disintegration of the blood mist has spread to the neck.
Bai Yanren's face full of cracks showed a relief-like smile.
"Remember..."
"Yanliang."
"I'm already dead."
"Death is not terrible..."
"You can definitely end everything..."
"Remember..."
"Let the dead... return to death."
The last words, as Bai Yanren turned into blood mist, disappeared into the world that was about to collapse.
Bai Yanliang stood there blankly.
Brother...
I may not be able to do it anymore.
He looked out the window at the blood-red sky.
The rotten smell of death permeates every corner of this world.
He didn't want to go out, and he didn't want to continue.
The world is collapsing, and you will collapse with it.
He really couldn't find any power to drive himself again, like a toy car whose battery had been dropped.
Everything has lost its meaning to Bai Yanliang...
He leaned against the cracked window and waited quietly.
Sorry...brother.
I don't want anything to end...
I just want to... die while I still feel that I am "Bai Yanliang".
The world is rapidly disintegrating with the collapse of Bai Yanliang's will.
The black cracks seemed to pull the starry sky closer. The boundless darkness in the cracks made people suffocate and tremble, but it was also deeply shocking.
Bai Yanliang stared blankly at the deep darkness behind the crack.
Sudden!
Just above Bai Yanliang's window, a white crack suddenly opened——
A hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed Bai Yanliang's collar!
Immediately afterwards, Yu Wenxuan's slightly mocking voice came from the white crack:
"You won't...forgot your agreement with me, right?"
A stern face loomed in the white cracks, it was Yu Wenxuan!
At this moment, he was holding a key that was shining with blood in his left hand, and holding Bai Yanliang's collar in his right hand, he said coldly:
"It's so lucky to get this key, not to save a loser who doesn't want to live."
"Give me... wake up!"
The violent force pulled Bai Yanliang into the white crack, and the two figures finally disappeared before the world was about to collapse completely...
