Chapter 383: 304, With Lin Yi's death, their sky also collapsed [Big Chapter]_2
"Thank you, Senior Lin Yi!"
Words of gratitude and a feeling of thankfulness converged in her chest, and in the presence of so many people, Zhu Zhuyun found it inappropriate to express herself openly, but she was determined to find an opportunity tonight to "express" her gratitude properly.
"No need to thank me, from another perspective, you're quite lucky."
"The best manifestation of Zhu Yun's luck is having met Senior Lin Yi!"
She said very earnestly.
Lin Yi squinted his eyes slightly; was Zhu Zhuyun moved to tears?
Ah, surely it wasn't that serious?
Lin Yi chuckled lightly, then said melancholically, "You really don't need to thank me. Before my death, having you all as companions is what I should be thankful for."
He had not forgotten the original reason he was sitting here.
It was to seek death!
But everyone seemed to gradually forget Lin Yi's initial intention, and now, with Lin Yi's reminder, they all looked at each other with belated realization.
In these past days, they had gained so much joy that they had all forgotten that Senior Lin Yi was a man about to embrace death.
Upon hearing his words now, they were shocked to the core.
Bi Bidong had also forgotten, being immersed in these joyful days, she had long since pushed the matter to the back of her mind.
"Senior, how much time do you have left... Will you leave us forever?"
Bi Bidong's voice trembled as she asked.
Lin Yi was about to respond when he suddenly felt an intense sadness in the atmosphere.
He was a bit surprised; could these people who came to play the Lottery Shield every day really be saddened by his death?
"Senior?"
Bi Bidong noticed Lin Yi was in a daze and couldn't help feeling even more sorrowful.
She had a premonition that Lin Yi must also be reluctant to leave this world, right?
"Well, I should have quite a few years left, given that all your damage is too low to even scratch one layer of skin off me, but fortunately, I can set the damage to accumulate, so every day I move a step closer to death. That's been my only motivation for sitting here every day up until now."
Lin Yi spoke calmly, his comments laced with profound sadness.
The scene fell silent.
As everyone looked into his eyes, a mist seemed to form over them, and they began to feel uncomfortable.
"Senior, how can we give you the hope to continue living? Please tell me, I, Bi Bidong, am willing to go through fire and water to bring you hope!"
Bi Bidong's eyes were red as she knelt down and pleaded with Lin Yi.
Lin Yi let out a light chuckle, "Sometimes, hope isn't necessarily a good thing."
"But we can't bear to see you go! We will all be the killers who caused your death!"
Suddenly someone in the crowd cried out excitedly.
"Senior Lin Yi, I didn't know about these things before... but I beg you, can you please not die..."
Ju Zi cried as she took several steps forward.
All her hopes were pinned on Lin Yi, and if Lin Yi died, the hope that was sustaining her would shatter along with it.
"I, Qing He... also beseech Senior Lin Yi to live on."
At this moment, Qian Renxue really wanted to use her real name, as these were her true feelings.
She knelt down after speaking, her heart sinking into a depth of sorrow she had never experienced before.
"We plead with Senior Lin Yi to keep on living!"
Gradually, others began to do the same as Bi Bidong and Qian Renxue. More and more people knelt down, their voices sincere as they echoed the same sentiment.
With Lin Yi's death, it was as if the sky would collapse, affecting all their futures.
The Gua Sha Masters collectively knelt; they had no grounds for objection, Lin Yi truly was their sky!
Because of Lin Yi, they and their families had begun to live a happy life that had previously been impossible.
The Tiandou quartet also knelt down, including the Snow Emperor, Ice Emperor, all the guest elders and Elders of the Martial Soul Hall, and the Third Offeror even pushed the Little Golden Crocodile's head down a bit lower.
In such a situation, everyone ought to maintain the utmost respect for Senior Lin Yi.
Di Tian, Zi Ji, and Wang Qiu'er were visibly distressed, while Silly Goose, having just learned of Lin Yi's impending death, was now crying inconsolably.
The four of them knelt down and begged together.
Gu Yuena stared blankly at Lin Yi on stage, her face also showing a flicker of sorrow.
For the first time in front of everyone, she silently knelt down to Lin Yi, lowering her arrogantly-held head.
Gu Yuena's thoughts were the same as everyone else's; she wished Lin Yi would not die, that he would never die.
For both personal and general reasons, Gu Yuena could not bear to watch someone with the Dragon God's bloodline perish in front of her a second time.
Poseissi looked around in some astonishment; she had not anticipated that Lin Yi held such an important place in everyone's hearts.
But Lin Yi truly is someone worthy of respect.
Since it was her first time here, she didn't kneel, but she still bent her waist towards Lin Yi to show respect.
"Am I already dead that you've begun to mourn me in advance?"
Lin Yi looked on calmly at the crowd that had knelt down in unison.
What surprised him was the uniform response coming from the scene.
"Please give Senior Lin Yi renewed hope to live on!"
Lin Yi hadn't expected them to be so in sync, the voice of over a thousand people speaking as one was so loud it hurt his eardrums.
This won't do!
Damn it, it's all Zhu Zhuyun's fault!
Out of the blue, she makes some declaration of affection! Made me also impulsively utter a phrase, and as a result, a whole bunch of people kneeling is what I get...
Let this be a lesson: don't randomly make sentimental remarks!
Lin Yi's expression turned cold as he stared at the crowd.
"First, I'll tell you that not a single one of you is qualified to sway my thoughts."
"Second, if you don't attack me, you'll prove to be of no use to me here, and not only will I not thank you, but I'll also immediately get up and leave Soul Land to find others to attack me in a different realm,"
"Understand?"
The more everyone listened, the more desperate they became.
Senior Lin Yi's resolve was unexpectedly firm!
"Don't..."
Bi Bidong started to speak, truly panicked now.
Better to let Senior Lin Yi die on Soul Land than have it this way!
"We will attack, Martial Soul Hall will continue to attack!"
Bi Bidong quickly stood up.
Upon hearing this, the people at the scene also stood up one after another. Senior Lin Yi can't leave; he just can't go!
His leaving would be even more painful than if he died here!
After all, Senior Lin Yi said he could live many more years here; since the damage that could be inflicted here was impressively low...
But since Senior Lin Yi doesn't mind our low damage, that should be a good thing.
Everyone dared not mention the words "don't want Lin Yi to die" again, as they all knew Senior Lin Yi had a temper so great, that if they really pushed him too hard and he left, they would find no one to reason with!
Yet the atmosphere was still shrouded with sadness.
Everyone had their thoughts; not knowing what to think anymore, the look towards Lin Yi no longer held their prior happiness and excitement.
Bi Ji was still crying; anyway, Lin Yi very much disdained her, often scolding her, so she wasn't afraid of being reprimanded by him.
She just didn't want to let Lin Yi die, without being able to give a reason.
"Next, who's attacking."
Lin Yi looked towards Dai Ben and Davis, father and son.
Davis, stealing a look at Zhu Zhuyun who walked off the stage with red rims around her eyes, got a fierce glare from her, embarrassingly stepped aside, and then walked towards the stage.
"I'll attack first."
"Hold on a second."
Lin Yi's gaze swept over the Dai Family father and son on the stage, turning towards the ferocious beast side.
Pointing at Bi Ji, his Law-Emitter ability came into effect, "No crying."
Bi Ji's crying immediately stopped, and her tearful green eyes stared blankly at Lin Yi.
"Finally, peace and quiet."
Lin Yi spoke in a deadpan manner, then said to the Dai family father and son, "Go ahead with your attack."
While he appeared exasperated, inside he was quite surprised; he really hadn't expected Bi Ji to cry so heartbrokenly over his death.
Wasn't this Silly Goose always so fearful of him?
The Dai family father and son had already begun their attack.
Davis crossed his arms in front of his chest, the phantom of a White Tiger flickering momentarily, followed by a burst of white light that quickly spread from beneath him to the surroundings, covering a hundred meters.
Beast God's Domain.
Dai Ben was not to be outdone, both father and son employed the same empowerment domain they had used previously.
The BGM resonated!
The tune of Good Luck immediately broke the sad mood of the scene.
