CHAPTER 448: CHAPTER 275: BEYOND REDEMPTION 1

Song Xuyao, upon hearing Tian Xin’s words, immediately ran upwards.

Tian Xin looked at Tang Baijin who had already fallen into unconsciousness and anxiously kept calling him: "Tang Baijin... Tang Baijin..."

Bitter tears kept falling.

Dropping onto Tang Baijin’s face, one drop... another drop... and yet another...

Tang Baijin seemed to feel someone crying for him, slowly coming to, but his eyes wouldn’t open, and his consciousness was extremely scattered.

It was at this moment Song Xuyao returned.

He grabbed Tian Xin and Tang Baijin with one hand, and tied the two together with a rope.

"Song Xuyao, what are you doing?" Tian Xin looked at him.

Song Xuyao said, "I’m going to look for people. Now you two stay right here for me. Once I find Qin Shan, you’ll come with me to worship Chenxi. She’s been so desolate underground, with no one to accompany her..."

"Madman madman madman..." Tian Xin couldn’t find other words to curse this man!

"I am mad..." Song Xuyao nodded, "As long as Chenxi can rest in peace, it doesn’t matter how mad I become..."

With that, he left.

Tian Xin looked at Tang Baijin who was still unconscious and shifted her body, fearful that Song Xuyao might find Bei Ran’s little boat, so she kicked away the mooring rope beneath her feet.

Bei Ran only felt the boat drifting towards the ocean, but Tian Xin and Tang Baijin had not come.

One was a friend of many years, and the other, her first love.

Among them, neither could afford to have anything happen!

She suddenly had a bad premonition. She rowed alone into the sea. And them?

Could it be that they encountered some trouble?

But, why can’t she move her hands and feet agilely?

Bei Ran could only watch as the little boat drifted further away, her heart burning with anxiety.

In the wine cellar, Tian Xin looked at the man who was tied up with her, "Tang Baijin, it seems we truly are in this life and death situation together. But, Bei Ran must be alright now, you can be at peace too, right?"

"Tang Baijin, I never imagined, the person with me at this moment... would be you," Tian Xin said with a helpless smile.

Suddenly, she felt something unusual about Tang Baijin.

Gu Qingchen and Yang Junyi’s boat arrived at the island, which was already engulfed in darkness. They took searchlights to look for Bei Ran.

A pain shot through Yang Junyi’s chest, and he covered the area with his hand.

"What’s wrong?" Gu Qingchen turned to look at him.

"I don’t know why, but all of a sudden my heart feels stuffy, anxious, and painful, as if something major has happened," Yang Junyi sighed.

Gu Qingchen’s expression also turned grave, concerned for Bei Ran, "If it indeed was Qin Shan’s doing, that man is devoid of humanity. He would resort to any means to harm others. If you’re not feeling well, sit down to rest a moment. I’ll lead the search..."

"Let’s split up to search; we’ll cover more ground that way!" said Yang Junyi, enduring the pain.

The two men each led others and split up to search.

Bei Ran’s little boat floated on the sea, and as she looked at the stars in the sky, which should have been brilliantly shining, she felt an overpowering sense of darkness.

She moved her hands and feet, finally able to move, and immediately got up, picked up the oar, and rowed with all her might towards the shore.

She saw lights on the shore, lights that were moving, as well as the familiar silhouettes of bodyguards.

Bei Ran knew, Gu Qingchen had come!

"Qingchen..." As she flipped out of the wooden boat, she called out.

In her haste, she fell into the water.

Within the wooden house, Gu Qingchen was searching when he heard someone calling his name!

And it was a very familiar voice.

Gu Qingchen turned and just heard the sound of someone falling into the sea.

"Bei Ran..." Gu Qingchen rushed to the seaside like a shot.

His feet flew across the sand, wishing for wings to fly and reach her side, to spare her suffering, sadness, and fear.

Bei Ran stood up from the sea water, looking at the man who dashed towards her without a care.

In the next moment, she found herself held in his arms.

He rushed into the water, lifting her from the sea.

He held her very tightly, his most cherished treasure.

"Bei Ran..." Gu Qingchen called out softly to her, his calls seeming to come from the deepest reaches of the sky, yet also from the softest part of his heart.

Bei Ran trembled from the cold: "Qingchen, you’ve come, hurry, there are others still trapped..."

"We’re on our way now!" Gu Qingchen said; both of them were soaked by the sea water, and in the cold winter, she was shivering violently.
