The herbs’ strong stimulation made Xia Chi dizzy, and he seemed to be holding a card that he had taken from his backpack.

Wen Ziqing overhead was getting farther and farther away from him.

He seemed to be in a trance as countless images flashed in front of his eyes like beacons until a figure emerged.

Sharp brows, bright eyes, and a broad smile…

Xia Chi looked at the familiar and unfamiliar person in his mind and thought to himself: It’s Tan Yue.

In a daze, he seemed to hear the system prompt.

[Ding! The summoning card was used successfully.]

The summoning card?

Xia Chi looked at what he was holding in his hand.
He quickly took something from the system backpack.
It turned out to be a summoning card.

But the summoning card was used successfully?

Who did he just summon?

As a flash of light and a shadow appeared in front of him, his consciousness faded gradually.

No, wait a minute!

Don’t pass out yet, this body! Ah! Let me see what I summoned.

Bai Lixin arrived at the mountain’s base and happened to notice a figure hugging another figure and landing on the ground.

The figure had not completely disappeared when he and Dijia arrived.

The person appeared to be much older than the tall youth in the photo.
Bai Lixin froze for two seconds before asking, “Tan Yue?”

As he carefully placed the unconscious Xia Chi next to the stone at the foot of the mountain, the young man’s body was somewhat transparent.
He smiled and nodded to Bai Lixin and Dijia: “Nice to meet you.”

Tan Yue’s body became increasingly transparent as he turned his head and looked at Xia Chi, saying, “Don’t tell him it was me, please.”

He looked at Bai Lixin, and then his eyes fell on Dijia.
“I believe I’ve seen you somewhere.”

Dijia: “?”

Tan Yue, who was about to disappear, looked to be about the same age as Xia Chi.
But, unlike Xia Chi, the young man in front of them exuded a calmness that belied his age.

Tan Yue was a player who had climbed to the 900th level.

Before Tan Yue disappeared, Bai Lixin asked: “What exactly is on the 900th floor? What kind of person are you now? Did you work with the system?”

Tan Yue opened his mouth.
His expression was strained, as if he wanted to tell Bai Lixin something but was unable to do so accurately.

After several attempts, Tan Yue finally shook his head helplessly and did not say anything.

Bai Lixin asked again, “Super luck, lottery draws, system hints …was that you helping Xia Chi?”

Tan Yue did not have much to dwell on this time, and he nodded silently.

Wen Ziqing’s voice rang out from the top of the cliff.
“Drop quickly.
Get medicine from him, even if it means digging his mouth out!”

Bai Lixin raised his head, his eyes cold.
Wen Ziqing was looking down at the time, and their gazes collided.

Wen Ziqing couldn’t see who was standing at the bottom of the cliff because of the distance, and he could only see a few figures.
He couldn’t see the person, but he trembled for some reason, as if a colossal python had targeted him.

Bai Lixin retracted his gaze and continued to look at Tan Yue.

Tan Yue’s silhouette had become even thinner, almost blending into the surrounding air.

Bai Lixin: “Are you dead or alive right now?”

Tan Yue’s voice was weak and feeble, and Bai Lixin faintly heard him say: “I should be a living dead.”

“Don’t tell him I was here.
Tell him to complete the main quest as soon as possible and to get out of here.” Tan Yue turned to Bai Lixin and said, “This is also some advice for you.
Do not ascend to the 900th floor.
Complete the main quest and get out of here.
The less you know about the truth behind this game, the better.”

The last of the thin figure disappeared and merged into the air.

Bai Lixin took a deep breath and walked up to Xia Chi.

Xia Chi was injured during his run earlier.
In addition, the adrenaline caused by eating herbs and falling rapidly left the body in a poor condition.

If it wasn’t for Tan Yue’s appearance, Xia Chi wouldn’t have survived even if the King of Heaven came.

Bai Lixin used the Mermaid’s heart on him.
The faint green light enveloped Xia Chi, and the numerous small wounds on his body began to heal at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Only after the system prompted that he was healed did Bai Lixin stop healing.

Xia Chi’s hand then dropped a damaged card.
Bai Lixin held the card and read the words “summoning card”.

Did Tan Yue’s appearance have something to do with this card?

He returned the card to Xia Chi’s hand and heard rapid breathing from behind him.

“Bai Lixin, it’s you.”

Bai Lixin turned around to see Wen Ziqing, who had rushed down.

A troop of a hundred or so beastmen stood behind Wen Ziqing, staring at the three of them from a safe distance.

Wen Ziqing turned his head to face Xia Chi.
He was puzzled for a moment before he suddenly said in surprise: “His wounds were healed?”

“I remember! It was also you who healed Xia Chi when we were in the Undead territory before! Bai Lixin, do you have a healing-type prop?” The tone of Wen Ziqing softened.
“That’s fantastic.
I couldn’t live with a clear conscience if something had happened to Xia Chi.”

Xia Chi, on the other hand, was unconscious.
An unconscious person couldn’t say anything.

“I was just helping Xia Chi pick herbs when he fell down the mountain by accident.
I was terrified to death.” Wen Ziqing looked at Xia Chi with panic and revealed his snake-bitten leg.
“I was bitten by a snake by accident just now; can you help me in treating it?”

Bai Lixin silently surveyed Wen Ziqing, the black pearl on his neck faintly glowing.

Wen Ziqing continued his efforts: “I knew I was wrong before, but all I wanted was to live.
People are not born bad, and they are not always bad.” I’ve since realized I was wrong, been punished, and changed drastically.”

“There are so many people participating in this game and it’s amazing that we still have the fate to meet in two copies.
God intended us to meet.”

Wen Ziqing gritted his teeth and continued as Bai Lixin remained silent.

“It was wrong to hit Xia Chi with the whip back at the palace but I’ve been helping you take care of Xia Chi and the other two after you left.
I am selfish, but I haven’t lost my humanity.
We were all forced to enter this copy so we should have kept watch over each other.”

Wen Ziqing swallowed his saliva, “ Right?”

Bai Lixin finally glanced at Wen Ziqing and faintly said, “Wen Ziqing, snake venom can’t hurt you.”

“How can it possibly hurt me?” Wen Ziqing tried to soften and warm up his smile.
“Are you still mad at me? Do you refuse to save me?”

Bai Lixin walked over to Xia Chi, picked him up and carried him on his shoulders, then walked over to Dijia.

“Haven’t you realized it? You are already dead, how can the snake venom hurt you? Feel your heart properly and see if you can still hear your own heartbeat.”

Wen Ziqing suddenly froze.
He panicked and stretched out his hand on his chest.

Perhaps he was too panicked as he tore a piece of his cloth as he reached to his chest.

Bai Lixin: “You should be grateful that you are dead.
If you were still alive, I would not have let you off so lightly.
I don’t believe a word you say.
People aren’t born bad, but that’s only if we’re talking about people.”
