Chapter 1374: Chapter 1371: Disappearance

With trembling hands, Bi Xia tightly held the fiery red spiritual entity, watching as it gradually transformed into a physical form. Her lips slightly parted, and her starry eyes looked downward.

Feng Zhihuai, having returned unnoticed, stood below holding the unconscious Chu Wu. His sword-like eyes flickered slightly. Observing Bi Xia’s gaze, he slightly narrowed his eyes, gently kissed Chu Wu’s forehead, then mouthed towards Bi Xia.

Five.

In that instant, Bi Xia felt as though her body was being torn apart. She tightly clung to the form that was starting to fade in and out, her starry eyes deeply staring into those calm peach blossom eyes, "You, you idiot!"

With effort, Wu gently raised a hand to caress Bi Xia, pulling up a faint smile, "It’s the first time I’ve used my own form to touch my good friend. I should feel... happy now."

"Don’t, don’t be sad," Wu’s body began to weaken, and the fiery red spiritual power started to dissipate, "Wu and I just discovered... when, when our minds are in harmony, I can have my own physical form... The first time was for Feng Zhihuai, to save him... The second time... we wanted to protect you..."

"I’m quite happy," Wu paused, "to protect those I want to protect when I have a physical form..."

"Little Nine..."

Biting her lip tightly, Bi Xia transferred her spiritual power into Wu’s body, "Shut up! Shut up! Don’t talk like you’re saying a last farewell! I won’t listen!"

"It’s not a farewell," Wu said softly, "it’s a friend’s words."

"Don’t cry... I knew long ago that someday I would disappear. As a personality, my existence would bring Wu a lot of trouble... I know, I know it was you who asked Feng Zhihuai to keep me... Otherwise... But..." Wu looked at her increasingly unstable form, "rather than disappearing meaninglessly, I would rather disappear for the sake of protecting those I want to protect..."

Raising a hand to wipe away Bi Xia’s tears, "Xiao Wu is the person I was told to protect when I woke up, and you... were my first friend, a friend both Xiao Wu and I want to protect... You’ve protected us many times, now let us protect you!"

The voice grew fainter, and the spiritual power supporting her form was diminishing. Bi Xia helplessly tried to grasp that power, only to find it was futile, "No! No! Wu! Wu!"

"Don’t cry... I’m really... very happy..." Wu gradually widened the curve of her lips, facing Bi Xia with a radiant smile, "Hello Jiu, I’m... Wu... delighted... delighted to become your friend... Please, from now on... be well with Wu! I will... always protect you both..."

"No, no! No!"

Watching the smile disappear from her embrace, Bi Xia desperately waved her hand in the air, trying to catch all that spiritual power, but it all slipped through her fingers, "Wu! Wu! Wu..."

Tears trickled into the corners of her mouth, and that bitter and astringent taste twisted Bi Xia’s heart. She bit her lip tightly, her mouth moving soundlessly, calling Wu’s name.

"Ah!!!!" At that moment, a heart-wrenching scream echoed across the sky, as the girl kneeling on the giant serpent lifted her head, tightly shutting her eyes, letting her tears fall drop by drop...

Wu... was gone...

Feng Zhihuai looked down at the unconscious Chu Wu in his arms, observing the silent tears sliding from her eyes and her involuntarily curled body. He opened his mouth, "I’m sorry..."

"..." Chu Wu silently bit her lip, her peach blossom eyes tightly shut. Suddenly, she turned, grabbing Feng Zhihuai’s collar tightly, gasping for breath, unable to utter a word. Finally, with great effort, she fiercely spat out, "Feng Zhihuai! You bastard!!!"

Feng Zhihuai silently held Chu Wu, enduring her punches and curses. He had the ability to ensure Wu’s life when she left Chu Wu’s body, but... if Chu Wu wanted to live long, then Wu had to disappear.

Because Wu... was no longer just a personality, but had formed into a spiritual entity. A single body could not sustain two spiritual entities.

This was the choice they both made when Wu emerged from Xiao Wu’s sea of consciousness.
