Chapter 302: What a Reckless Kid (Subscribe!!)

Morax opened his mouth, but no words came out.

After a long while, he squeezed a single word through the gaps of his teeth.

"Yes."

The surrounding celestials, upon seeing Morax confirm that this body of Jiang Yan's was merely a clone, all heaved a sigh of relief.

"That Jiang Yan fellow, honestly..."

Lady Guizhong's tone carried a note of reproach.

"Gave us quite a scare."

Morax's eyes were vacant; he simply stood there in silence.

"Lord?"

Cloud Retainer was the first to notice the abnormality in Morax.

"Jiang Yan..."

"Jiang Yan, he..."

Morax muttered to himself, and Lady Guizhong and the others were seeing Morax in such a state for the first time.

"What happened to Jiang Yan?"

The heart Lady Guizhong had just set at ease rose once again.

At this moment, an ominous premonition suddenly welled up in everyone's heart.

"Jiang Yan... once said to me when he left."

Morax seemed to be forcing himself to face reality, doing his best to keep his tone steady.

"As long as the clone exists, he exists; if the clone disappears..."

He could not finish his sentence.

The assembled celestials now realized the gravity of the situation.

"You... what did you say?"

Lady Guizhong stared blankly at Morax.

"Now that the clone has vanished, then Jiang Yan..."

Cloud Retainer murmured, wanting to take a step forward, but stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Hahaha, impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!!"

Azhdaha burst out laughing, threw an arm around Morax's shoulder, and said with a smile:

"That kid Jiang Yan has all sorts of tricks up his sleeve."

"How could he possibly die? Lord, you're joking, right?"

Though Azhdaha was laughing, his eyes fixed on Morax with unusual intensity.

"You're joking, aren't you? Morax!"

"How, how could that kid possibly die!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Azhdaha turned around and walked out.

"Where are you going?"

Morax asked without turning his head.

"To find him. That kid, this time he took his prank too far!"

Azhdaha's voice drifted back from afar.

"Come back! You won't be able to find him."

Morax said in a low voice.

Azhdaha's departing figure froze, his body trembling ceaselessly.

For a moment, no one could accept the news of Jiang Yan's sudden death.

He was perfectly fine, so why did this suddenly happen?

Little Ganyu, kneeling on the ground, gazed quietly at Morax; at this moment, she was unusually still.

"Where exactly did Jiang Yan go?"

Little Ganyu spoke softly, her tone utterly devoid of emotion.

"I don't know."

Morax shook his head, then looked up at the sky.

"Perhaps, there is one person who knows..."

Time rewound half an hour earlier.

The Abyss.

After two thousand years of battle, the Abyss had long since become a shattered ruin.

Crack after crack spread across the surrounding stone walls, extending endlessly down toward the boundless black ocean below.

That's right, a black ocean.

On the pitch-black water's surface, a lone figure stood silently.

It was Jiang Yan!

At this moment, his entire body was pitch-black, countless black spears piercing through his frame.

These spears seemed to grow from within the black river itself, fused with it, equally black.

In his hand, he gripped a head.

Judging from the ferocious appearance of the head, it was undoubtedly the Abyss Lord.

At this moment, Jiang Yan was panting heavily, his body trembling ceaselessly.

Just then, black mist swirled in Jiang Yan's hand, and the Abyss Lord's head vanished without a trace.

But it did not reappear.
