Chapter 849: I've Always Treated Her as My Best Comrade!

However, although Lynn did indeed feel a tiny, not-all-that-significant, villainous boss-like perverse satisfaction.

His face still betrayed nothing out of the ordinary.

Using fine, dense tentacles to gently rummage through her skull, slowly reconnecting the shattered pieces of brain tissue bit by bit, then adding just a little bit of the Flesh Proliferation Potion, the effect was naturally extremely pronounced.

For a spiritual medium already touching upon the supernatural domain, repairing their bodies was far simpler than for ordinary people.

Because her soul could already be preserved independently. It was just that her mastery still had some shortcomings, not quite reaching the level of naturally existing after shedding the shackles of the flesh.

And under these circumstances.

The brain simply became a vessel, no longer the soul itself.

【Ding! Your Flesh Modification ability +1】

Accompanied by the system prompts continuously ringing in his ears.

It didn't take long before Lynn had already used his powerful, highly active flesh to patch up the wounds in her brain tissue.

Immediately after, he turned his head and glanced at the many tentacles covered in eyeballs that stretched out into the mist.

He picked one that looked about right.

Squelch-

He dug out a relatively pretty eyeball, washed it, installed it for her, and then performed a small neural surgery.

As for whether there would be any rejection reaction, there was naturally no need to worry at all. With his current level of flesh vitality, forget about a human, even if he dragged a pig over, as long as he wished it, he could achieve one hundred percent compatibility, making them as one, you within me and me within you.

Tss tss tss-

He withdrew each of the small tentacles from around her eyeball.

"It's done."

Lynn closed his eyes, rolled his neck a bit, and with the corner of his mouth slightly raised:

"She's more or less restored to her original state, and there's no need to worry about memory damage. Right now, as long as her soul readapts to the brain as a vessel, she'll wake up very soon. There's nothing for you to worry about."

The moment these words came out.

Bai Yi hurriedly and anxiously raised his head, looking toward Yin Qin's cheeks beside him.

Yin Yi, who was controlling Yin Qin's body, blankly and slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes faintly emitted a soft glow. She felt as if she had just had a dream. Although her older sister's consciousness still hadn't awakened, based on how she sensed this body, that feeling of life constantly slipping away was indeed gone, and her brain and eye sockets no longer gave her excruciating pain.

She unconsciously touched her own eye.

When that full, substantial feeling came through, she almost couldn't help but become urgent and excited.

Yes.

The eye had recovered!

And not just the eye, the functions of the brain in all aspects seemed to have fully recovered to before the attack. If her soul were now placed inside, she would even be able to perfectly take control of this body as a person.

This was simply unbelievable.

"It actually... actually recovered..."

She gazed at the hands of this body, her face filled with heartfelt joy and excitement. That elated expression was as moving as a pure little loli's.

That was joy from the bottom of her heart, impossible to fake.

She truly wished for her older sister to come back to life, and this joy had even once surpassed the cruel price she might have to pay for it.

"Thank you! I thank you on behalf of my older sister for saving her life!"

She sincerely knelt down toward Lynn, wiping away the trace of moisture at the corner of her eye, her eyes brimming with gratitude.

But she also knew her fate.

And she had to fulfill it.

She turned her head, looked toward Bai Yi beside her, her gaze softening, and said in a low voice:

"I beg you, after I leave, please take my older sister's body back. If older sister wakes up, just tell her... I went to a very faraway place. Tell her not to worry about me, and that she must live well from now on, and not to take her own lifespan and life and share them with others again."

After saying this, she smiled mischievously.

As if she no longer had any burden left, what remained was only relief.

Perhaps what awaited her in hell was a bleak fate, but at least in the mortal world, she had already done what she ought to do.

"Take care."

She softly said her goodbye.

Then, under Bai Yi's vacant stare, she slowly raised her head and closed her eyes. Wisps of cold, eerie aura dispersed from the body before her, ultimately slowly converging into her soul form, and that body also limply collapsed.

She raised her head, extended a disembodied hand toward Lynn, and piously said:

"Take me to hell, Master. I am ready."

Although that was indeed the case.

Bai Yi forcefully, desperately clenched his eyes shut, lowered his head, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

Although there was inherent need for sacrifice.

Whether it was the sacrifices needed to summon Big Brother, or the bargaining chips needed to save Sister Yin Qin's life, sacrifices were destined to be made no matter what. But...

Was there really no better way?

But he couldn't beg for Big Brother's mercy, because Big Brother originally had no obligation whatsoever to help them. It was they who had performed a one-sided summon of Big Brother, and Big Brother was merely taking back what was rightfully his offerings. He had no face at all to ask Big Brother to show any further leniency.

His trembling grew worse.

Lynn's periphery vision swept across Bai Yi's face, and without betraying anything, he stroked his chin, then with a faint smile extended his hand toward that yin spirit, the corner of his mouth slightly raised:

"So, you're not afraid at all?"

Yin Yi shook her head: "Since I've made my decision, there's no point in being afraid or not."

Lynn smiled slyly.

And it was at that very moment.

Splash splash splash-

Tentacles instantly coiled toward Yin Yi's yin spirit body, directly wrapping her up, and she closed her eyes, offering no resistance whatsoever, letting those tentacles crawl all over her body, dragging her bit by bit toward that rift.

And past that boundary lay two completely different worlds.

Bai Yi's face immediately turned pale.

"Sister Yin Yi..."

So Bai Yi, you still won't do anything?

Lynn pinched his monocle, the corner of his mouth still smiling, watching as the girl was dragged bit by bit toward the rift where he resided, giving no indication whatsoever.

If the one before you were not your Big Brother.

If what you had truly encountered were a devil craving offerings.

At that time.

Would you still be willing to watch with your own eyes as the comrade who saved you many times descend into hell? Even if... it was voluntary on her part.

Splash splash splash-

The spreading tentacles gradually contracted, and the bound Yin Yi's soul was dragged bit by bit toward that rift. She kept her eyes closed, like a suffering angel.

And Bai Yi still sat there with a pale face, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

Lynn's smiling gaze imperceptibly swept over Bai Yi.

It seems.

You've already made your decision, Bai Yi.

I am truly... very disappointed in you.

Lynn closed his eyes, waved his hand, and those tentacles instantly tightened, dragging Yin Yi directly into the rift.

But it was at this very moment.

Just as Yin Yi's body was about to be completely pulled into the rift, a hand suddenly shot out, desperately and firmly seizing the blood-red tentacle wrapped around her, preventing her from being dragged down into that pitch-black abyss.

And this sudden disturbance also made Yin Yi instantly open her eyes, her pupils dilating violently, reflecting that young man's face flushed red, straining outside the rift.

"Bai Yi! You... what are you doing?!"

She nearly cried out in shock.

But Bai Yi acted as if he hadn't heard, his face flushed red, veins bulging at his temples, desperately dragging her outward.

"Big Brother! She saved me... she and you alike are my saviors, Bai Yi's saviors... Without you, Big Brother, I would have died long ago back at the Happy Home, and without her, I probably couldn't have even held on until I could summon you again before dying at that evil spirit's hands..."

"So I can't do it... Big Brother, I really can't do it..."

"I don't want to see her go to hell, and I don't want to see her suffer in the Death Realm. I know you don't care about her, Big Brother, so you can treat her as a plaything, but... but..."

He turned his head, gazing toward Lynn with suppressed, sorrowful grief.

"But I've already come to think of her as my best comrade!!"

...

PS: I am truly sorry, everyone. Salted Fish ran a fever up to forty degrees, and it only just came down not long ago. My brain is a total mush... But updates will gradually resume over the next few days.

Wishing everyone a happy Christmas Eve!
