Yunyu was currently swallowed by the snake, his bone was crushed, and his skin melted gruesomely. He was crying as he couldn't handle the pain. It was nothing like he ever experienced before.
[Pupa! Help me, it's really painful!]
[Pupaaaaa! I can't handle this!]
[HELP!]
Pupa stared at Yunyu, who was in so much pain, it seemed to contemplate whether it was a good time to use this or not. But Pupa sighed when it saw how Yunyu was in so much pain.
[Pupa: Code 119 – Pain Absorption.]
Yunyu suddenly felt his pain was lifted until he couldn't feel any pain. He knew his skin was still melting, but he had zero pain.
[Eh? I feel no pain at all?]
Yunyu darted his gaze at Pupa, wanting to ask about what just happened.
[Pupa, is this—]
Yunyu was astonished when he saw his system floating in front of him. There was a wire connecting his heart with Pupa's shell, and Pupa was in standby mode. So it couldn't respond to Yunyu.
What made Yunyu astonished was the crack on Pupa's shell. The wire that connected them seemingly transferring his pain into Pupa's shell.
Bai Yunyu became worried because the crack on Pupa's shell became even more obvious and worrisome as time went on. Yunyu wanted to check on Pupa, but his body was inside this red smoke serpent's body, and his bone was already crushed.
He couldn't feel the pain, but his bone was still getting crushed for real.
[Pupa, are you okay?]
[Hey, is this okay? Did you do something to me? What is this wire?]
There was no answer from Pupa, but its shell had a long, obvious crack.
After the snake finished eating Yunyu, the old shaman chanted another incantation. Yunyu felt that his body slowly materialized and regained its mass. All the broken bones and melted skin returned intact, but he had lost all his strength even though he couldn't feel the pain.
The red snake spat out Yunyu from its belly and then disappeared. At the same moment, Pupa dropped to the ground with a loud metal sound that only Yunyu could hear.
Yunyu couldn't move an inch of its body. He could only stare at Pupa, who dropped dead beside him.
[Pupa, are you okay? What did you do to me?]
[Pupa, don't do anything… crazy…]
[Pupa… Pupa... Pupa...]
Yunyu's consciousness slowly drifted away as he glanced at Xu Jiansheng's feet that approached him. He felt something was really wrong, but he didn't think that Jiansheng would hurt him.
Aaron Xu was really good with him, so he thought that Xu Jiansheng would be the same. Yunyu gathered all his remaining strength and uttered, "Jian… sheng… help…"
Xu Jiansheng crouched and propped Yunyu from the ground. He carried Yunyu, who finally lost his consciousness in his arms and smiled, "With this, I will always know wherever you go, even after countless worlds we passed through."
Xu Jiansheng glanced at the old shaman who had just finished the ritual by turning the red snake into a red chain. The red chain was connected to Yunyu's heart, while the end of the chain was connected to Xu Jiansheng's heart.
The old shaman took a deep breath and got up from the ground. He walked with his feeble leg to Bai Yunyu and Xu Jiansheng. He stared at Yunyu's human body, but still with pale face and cold skin.
"Young Master, you said that you want to chain this guy forever with you, right?" the old shaman asked, and Jiansheng nodded with certainty. The old shaman hummed for a second and said, "With this blood chain, you will be connected forever. Even after your death, your reincarnations will have their heart chained with this ghost's heart.
"That's what I want," Xu Jiansheng said.
"Young Master, I'm confused on why do you want to chain yourself with a ghost. You're young, wealthy, and handsome. There are a lot of ger men that you could marry outside. May I know the reason?"
Xu Jiansheng stared at Bai Yunyu, the old shaman already told him before about the risk of this blood chain. This was a sacred ritual where you would connect yourself with someone even after your death. Your reincarnations would stay connected, so it could be a blessing or a curse.
There was no hesitation in Jiansheng's eyes as he replied to the question, "He is always in my dream every day, every night, tormenting me as I keep remembering my origin. I have been awakened once more after Yunyu entered the original Ragemeter world, so I will make sure that he will be chained with me forever."
The old shaman didn't understand what Young Master Xu was saying, but he came for the money anyway.
"I can't reverse this ritual, so Young Master shouldn't find me after this."
Xu Jiansheng nodded and gave the old shaman the money they agreed with, and the old shaman left.
Jiansheng carried Yunyu to his private courtyard and then to his bedroom. He placed Bai Yunyu on his bed.
Jiansheng caressed Yunyu's cheek. It was cold indeed, as cold and pale as a corpse. But at least, Bai Yunyu was with him now.
"You're with me, at last…" Jiansheng laid beside Bai Yunyu and caressed his lips. "Bai Yunyu, you may not know me because I know that you've erased your memory to forget about me once you've completed the Ragemeter worlds."
"But I'm always there, just sleeping for a long time, waiting for you," Jiansheng said as he kissed Bai Yunyu's cold lips. The sensation made Jiansheng intoxicated for a moment. He had to admit that Yunyu always gave him the sensation that nobody else could ever give.
"You buried me alongside the Original Ragemeter worlds, but the twist of fate brought you back to the buried worlds and awakened me."
"So I will follow you everywhere, even to these Breakmeter worlds that you created. Don't worry. I will not hurt you, Bai Yunyu. I just want to make sure that we will burn together in this pandemonium. Do you want to ruin my creator, Master Han Ye, to the ground? Then so be it. As long as you're happy."
Xu Jiansheng checked the red chain that connected his heart with Bai Yunyu. It was only visible to him and Yunyu, and it would last forever. Which was precisely want Jiansheng wanted.
"Why are you so devoted to that bastard anyway? You have me, Bai Yunyu. I've sacrificed a lot for you… as Mamoru Ito, Zerocheat, Aaron Xu, Original Lee Yongsun, Xu Jiansheng. Forget about that bastard Han Ye and come with me instead, okay?"
Xu Jiansheng's eyes were full of hot love as he stared at Yunyu's pale lips. He landed a soft kiss on Yunyu's lips and then to Yunyu's cheeks and forehead.
"Bai Yunyu, my master wants me to ruin you. But I've fallen in love deep the moment I met you. so bear no worry, I will help you as much as I can, even in any form, I will always be loyal to you, Yunyu."
"Let's burn the imperial palace to the ground, and watch Master Han Ye suffer together, shall we?"
