Chapter 1253

As for the skiff itself, it rushed directly into the big mouth of the "tumor" transformed by Shuhu at an even faster speed.

"Bai Hang?!"

Jingliu and Lord Dan Feng were stunned, their eyes hurriedly looking toward the skiff.

They saw Bai Hang reveal a smile to the two through the skiff's window,

and then she raised the "cube" in her hand, looking at Shuhu with determined eyes.

Jingliu and Lord Dan Feng clearly saw Bai Hang press the "cube" with her finger at the moment the "tumor" was about to close.

Subsequently, a black sun generated from within the "tumor's" body, constantly compressing and absorbing Shuhu's flesh.

In just an instant, the "tumor" formed by Shuhu had shrunk by more than half.

And the speed at which it was shrinking was still increasing.

"I see, you intend to trade your own destruction for my demise?"

A head grew out of the tumor, looking down at the inside of its own body.

"It is a pity for such a brilliant life to perish just like this."

"In that case, in the name of 'Shuhu', I grant you an immortal body."

As Shuhu's voice fell, a emerald green light flashed over his body.

Immediately following, the black sun increased in size once again, actually swallowing Shuhu whole.

Afterward, the black sun, as if it had finished its work, suddenly disappeared from the spot, just as it had suddenly appeared.

Only the vanished Shuhu, Bai Hang, and the huge circular pit on the ground proved the traces of its existence.

【Collei: Tha... what is that?! A black sun?!】

【Tighnari: Is this the weapon Yingxing developed? Did it really swallow the Emanator of Abundance, Shuhu?】

【Kaveh: That Emanator of Abundance, whom even General Tengxiao, Jingliu, and Lord Dan Feng couldn't completely annihilate, was directly finished off by Yingxing's weapon?】

【Dottore: What a beautiful black sun. Should I say as expected of the genius craftsman of the Xianzhou? That Yingxing really did it. However, how exactly did he create such a weapon?】

【Albedo: A black sun capable of swallowing an Emanator of Abundance could likely swallow a world with ease. Yingxing, who could create such a weapon, might be qualified to join the Genius Society?】

【Rhinedottir: Pity, such a beautiful sun, yet I do not know the method to create it.】

【Alice: It's better that you, this madman, don't know. I don't want to see such a black sun rise over the Teyvat continent one day. Even a much weaker black sun, I don't want to see.】

【Ba Ba La: Shuhu was swallowed by the black sun. What about Miss Bai Hang? How is she?】

【Rosaria: Even the Emanator of Abundance has vanished. Although this might be due to his previous grueling battle with General Tengxiao, Jingliu, Lord Dan Feng, and others, this does not affect his power. I'm afraid Bai Hang has also vanished along with the disappearance of the black sun.】

【Ba Ba La: How could this be?】

【Rosaria: Although it's a pity, this was destined from the start. Yingxing had already said that the person who activates the black sun will die. And Yingxing, in the end, did not stop Bai Hang.】

【Paimon: Sigh... so this is what happened in the end.】

【Ba Ba La: Miss Bai Hang...】

………………

Memory projection.

Where the black sun disappeared.

Lord Dan Feng and Jingliu stood in the pit, looking at all this before them with sorrowful expressions.

"Bai Hang... why did it have to be you!"

Jingliu pursed her lips; there were ten thousand words in her heart, but at this moment, she couldn't say a single one.

"In the end, was it Bai Hang who protected us?"

Lord Dan Feng stood silently in place, but his eyes also revealed an indescribable sorrow.

It was sorrow for the passing of a close friend, and also sorrow that he, as the High Elder, needed to be saved by Bai Hang, whose strength was far inferior to his own.

"Where is Bai Hang? Where is Bai Hang?"

At this moment, Yingxing finally arrived.

"Bai Hang, only these are left."

Lord Dan Feng raised his hand slightly, and a water bubble emerged in the huge pit before them, carrying a trace of bloodstains and a strand of hair to the group.

"Bai Hang!!!"

Yingxing's eyes widened, and then his body went limp, falling straight toward the ground.

A hand suddenly reached out and supported Yingxing's shoulder.

Lord Dan Feng and Jingliu turned to look; the person who came was none other than Jing Yuan.

"I roughly understand what happened."

"But now is not the time for sorrow."

"There are still many things we need to do."

Jing Yuan's expression was solemn, trying his best to cover up his sorrow and maintain his own calm.

Although the Emanator of Abundance had vanished, the thousands of Mara-Struck he brought were still there.

Even if the Mara-Struck were leaderless, if left alone, the Luofu Xianzhou would still suffer great losses.

Moreover, Tengxiao had been defeated, and the Luofu Xianzhou was currently in a leaderless state as well.

"Mm, I'm going to kill the enemy now."

A red light flashed in Jingliu's eyes. As soon as she finished speaking, she flew straight into the sky, killing toward the Mara-Struck with a fierce momentum.

Clearly, she intended to vent the grief and indignation of Bai Hang's disappearance on those Mara-Struck.

"I'll take Yingxing away first; you should also adjust your mood quickly."

Jing Yuan said to Lord Dan Feng, then supported Yingxing and left the scene.

Lord Dan Feng looked at the figures of Jing Yuan, Yingxing, and Jingliu, then looked at the blood and hair left by Bai Hang, which he was wrapping in a water bubble in his hand.

Lord Dan Feng's eyes were deep, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.

A moment later, he summoned a vessel from his spatial artifact, cherishedly placed Bai Hang's few drops of blood and hair into it, and then solemnly put the vessel back into the spatial artifact.

After doing all this, Lord Dan Feng swung the Cloud-Piercer spear in his hand and killed toward the remaining Mara-Struck, venting his inner grief and indignation on the retreating Mara-Struck, just like Jingliu.

【Diluc: This battle should be over soon, right?】

【Kaeya: Without that Emanator of Abundance, the Mara-Struck are leaderless. And on the Luofu Xianzhou side, although General Tengxiao can no longer fight, at least there is still the High-Cloud Quintet.】

【Kaeya: This battle indeed cannot last for too long. It's just a pity for that Bai Hang.】

【Ba Ba La: So, was it Bai Hang's death that led to the later drifting apart of the High-Cloud Quintet?】

【Rosaria: Perhaps, but I feel there must have been other things that led to their drifting apart.】

………………

"In the past, did such a thing actually happen?"

In the train corridor, Yanqing let out a long breath and looked up at Jing Yuan, whose expression was extremely solemn.

Recalling the words Jing Yuan had said to him during training, "The journey so far has not been easy," Yanqing finally understood Jing Yuan's thoughts a little.

Although Jing Yuan had become a general, the death of a close friend was likely not something easy for the current Jing Yuan to forget.

On this point, Jing Yuan's expression at this moment was the best evidence.

"But in this way, everything can be considered over, right?"

Yanqing turned back and looked with a complex expression at the place where Bai Hang had disappeared in the memory projection.

"If everything just ended like this, it might be better for the High-Cloud Quintet."

Luo Feng said upon hearing Yanqing's voice.

"Mm?"

Yanqing looked at Luo Feng in confusion.

"Yanqing, you should have heard it earlier, right?"

"The words Shuhu said before disappearing."

Luo Feng said.

"The words Shuhu said before disappearing?"

"Wait, he said he was going to bestow a blessing?!"

Yanqing recalled Shuhu's words and immediately widened his eyes, looking at the memory projection.

【Tartaglia: Right! Before the Emanator of Abundance, Shuhu, disappeared, he did indeed say something about a "blessing." What does that mean? The object of his blessing couldn't be Bai Hang, could it?】

【Charlotte: In that state just now, the only person he could bestow a blessing upon was Bai Hang, right? Trapped by the black sun, only Bai Hang was still near him.】

【Ba Ba La: If she received Shuhu's blessing... could it be that Bai Hang didn't disappear?!】

【Dehya: But in fact, Bai Hang has indeed disappeared. Everyone saw it, right? Only a little bit of Bai Hang's blood and hair remain in the world.】 ===== CHAPTER 1254 =====
