Chapter 1844: A glimmer of hope

Su Xuan did not give a definitive answer.

But this very sentence was enough to let a glimmer of hope sprout in Wanyan Bupo's heart.

If there was anyone in this world most likely to save his sister, then it was undoubtedly the Su Xuan before him.

After all, four years ago, Su Xuan had died completely.

Yet, four years later, he had reappeared in the world.

And he hadn't paid any price; his state looked even better than it had four years ago.

"I will go call my sister over." Wanyan Bupo's words contained a hint of excitement.

Soon, he brought Wanyan Wulei over.

Wanyan Wulei had been endlessly curious about Su Xuan.

Earlier in the bar, Su Xuan had pointed out that one of her divination stones was missing.

That was not even the main thing.

The most important thing was that her brother, Wanyan Bupo, actually knew this person.

And this time, he had even invited the other party to be a guest at their home.

One must know that for these eight hundred years, she had never seen her brother invite anyone to their home.

In this large home, from beginning to end, there had only been the two of them, brother and sister.

But this person before her seemed to be an exception.

Unfortunately, her brother and this person seemed to have some secret matter to discuss, so he had asked her to step aside for a while; thus, Wanyan Wulei did not know the content of their conversation.

Until her brother found her.

She was completely bewildered.

What did this mean?

Her brother wanted her to go over so that man could examine her body?

One must know, she was a girl.

And that person was a man.

Brother, are you tired of your sister being single for eight hundred years and planning to sell her off?

Wanyan Wulei grumbled inwardly.

But she still obediently followed her brother and left.

Soon, they arrived at Su Xuan's location.

Seeing Su Xuan again—to be precise, this was the third time Wanyan Wulei had seen Su Xuan today.

Every time she saw Su Xuan, this person brought her an unusual feeling.

The first time she saw this person, Wanyan Wulei had just taken him for an ordinary person.

The second time, because of the words Su Xuan had said the first time, Wanyan Wulei couldn't help but rush to Su Xuan to ask for an explanation.

As a result, she hadn't expected her brother to know the other party, which cast a veil of mystery over Su Xuan.

And the third time she saw Su Xuan was this time.

The veil of mystery on the other party not only hadn't dissipated but had become even thicker.

"Bring your hand here and let me see."

Seeing Wanyan Wulei arrive, Su Xuan was concise and got straight to the point.

Wanyan Wulei was stunned and subconsciously looked at her brother.

She saw her brother nod.

So Wanyan Wulei no longer hesitated; she raised her hand and offered her palm to Su Xuan.

Su Xuan grasped Wanyan Wulei's palm.

Being touched by a strange man like this for the first time in her life, Wanyan Wulei still felt a bit awkward; immediately after, she felt a force surge from Su Xuan's palm—this force was extremely warm.

This was something Wanyan Wulei had never felt in these eight hundred years.

Ever since her life had been sustained by the Eternal Heart Lock,

she had been a walking corpse, although her memories still existed and her thoughts were still running.

But her body was not even as good as her brother's, who had become a zombie.

At least zombies could eat and drink, and their bodies still had temperature.

But she was different.

She could not eat or drink, and her body was ice-cold.

Although she had gotten used to this kind of life, she certainly couldn't say she liked it.

And at this moment, with Su Xuan, she experienced a long-lost warmth.

This feeling made Wanyan Wulei feel somewhat infatuated.

Unfortunately, this warmth came quickly and went just as quickly.

It soon disappeared.

Su Xuan released Wanyan Wulei's palm.

Wanyan Wulei felt a sense of loss and subconsciously grasped her palm, but unfortunately, she caught nothing.

After Su Xuan grasped his sister's palm, Wanyan Bupo's gaze had remained fixed between the two of them.

Seeing his sister's actions, Wanyan Bupo frowned, and then he looked at Su Xuan, "How is the situation?"

Su Xuan said, "The situation is very bad. The trauma she suffered back then cut off all her vitality. If my expectations are correct, her soul had actually left her body at that time and was about to enter the underworld for reincarnation, but I must say, the Eternal Heart Lock is worthy of being a strange object from the Eternal Kingdom; it transcended the Three Realms and Six Paths and actually forcibly locked her last thread of remnant soul, preventing it from entering reincarnation. As she is now, this remnant soul is like an unregistered person, living in the cracks of the world."

"But her body is dead after all; even if her remnant soul survives in the world, it cannot change this fact."

"Even if you turn her into a zombie, it cannot change this fact."

"In the end, those zombies that retain their consciousness from before death were all bitten while they were still alive."

"If you bite her now, it will only turn her into a puppet that has lost all consciousness. Furthermore, if her body becomes a zombie, then this last thread of remnant soul will completely lose its place to reside, and even the Eternal Heart Lock will not be able to sustain her last thread of life."

Su Xuan rambled on for a long time.

In short, according to his words, Wanyan Wulei's situation was extremely dire.

Wanyan Bupo knew all these things; after all, he had worked for eight hundred years to save his sister.

"Then, is there really no hope for my sister?"

Su Xuan said, "If it were eight hundred years ago, when she was first injured, I could still have saved her, but as you know, eight hundred years have already passed..."

"In other words, is she completely beyond saving?" Wanyan Bupo felt somewhat dejected.

Originally, when he saw Su Xuan, who had returned from the dead and claimed to have mastered the art of "bringing the dead back to life," appear, a glimmer of hope had arisen in Wanyan Bupo's heart, but he never expected to receive such an answer from Su Xuan.

"No, actually there is still a glimmer of hope."

Su Xuan liked to keep people in suspense and said another sentence.

Wanyan Bupo's gaze suddenly sharpened, and a vast aura was released from his body.

He stared fixedly at Su Xuan.

If this terrifying aura were directed at an ordinary person, they would have been scared out of their wits immediately. ===== CHAPTER 1846 =====
