The elder looked at the dying Ying and was silent for a long time.

He didn't know what he was thinking, he didn't say anything, and there was a dilemma on his face.

Although Xiang Chunmei was worried about Baili Jialie's situation, because she couldn't see it, she could only follow Ying, so she watched how the elders let Ying survive. Presumably, the elder was thinking hard about how to save it at this time, and since he dared to accept the Baili Kalie, he must have a number in his heart.

Xiang Chunmei knows how badly Ying is injured, and she also knows how fragile Ying is, and Ying is indeed unlikely to continue to live. Those tortures in the prison, put on people with cultivation, and they have been subjected to so much, they may not be able to live, let alone be mere mortals.

But she also knew the general development of the story after that, and felt that Ying could not die at this time, and the elder was ten likely this time.

"The first way, I can make you completely restored immediately, but you only have three years to live, and after three years you will die." The elder made a gesture, saw the frown on the girl's face, sighed in his heart, and continued, "The second way, I can only keep you from dying, and the recovery can only be very slow, and I will also use your memory as a price. After a long time, you are well recovered, and all your memories are emptied. ”

The elder said, "I'm sorry, I only have these two ways at the moment, your injuries are very serious, the magic doctor has declared your death, I want to go against the sky, and I can only do this." ”

Ying smiled miserably and said, "I understand, I know my situation, and it must not be easy for you to wake me up." ”

The elder said, "The Demon King attaches great importance to you, and if you are alive, the Demon King will be very happy. ”

When Ying heard this, she tilted her head, tears flashed in her eyes, but her tone was gentle: "I really didn't expect that little black ball to be so powerful." ”

She kept him in the haystack and treated him as a pet, even if she wandered later, she always treated him badly, but she didn't expect him to be the king of a world, such a powerful person, and he became her pet.

The elder said, "When the demon king is away, thank you for taking care of the girl. ”

Ying smiled and waved his hand: "Forget it, I don't care about it, he took care of me later." Elder, I have made a good choice, I choose the first one, and I will only live for three years. ”

The elder was not surprised, as if he could accept whatever she said, nodded calmly, and said, "Then I will cast a spell for you right now." ”

He put the Yuan Shen in his hand, chanted words in his mouth, and constantly had light integrated into the Yuan Shen, and the bead-like Yuan Shen became a little bigger. The elder looked at the Yuan Shen and swiped his two fingers together on the Yuan Shen, half of which entered Ying's body and half returned to his body.

At the same time, Ying wriggled her body uncomfortably because of the strong force entering her body, and let out a painful sound. The elder watched silently, incantating incantations in his mouth.

After a while, the light was gone, and Ying Cai stopped struggling, feeling his body lighten, and there was no longer a feeling of heaviness and pain. Somewhat surprised, she patted the wound, which didn't hurt at all, and let out an exclamation.

Xiang Chunmei, who watched the whole process on the side, frowned tightly and felt that something was wrong.

Ying asked, "Elder, how did you do this?" What was that bead-like thing just now? ”

The elder put down his hand, his face was a little paler than before, he didn't show any abnormality, and said, "Yuan Shen." ”

Ying didn't have any idea about this, and asked the elder what the original god was.

The elder patiently replied: "It is equivalent to the human heart, for human beings the heart is the most important, and for us the primordial spirit is the most important. ”

Ying let out an "oh" and quickly reacted: "Then you just gave me half of the primordial god?!" ”

Her face changed: "Elder, what does this mean?" ”

The elder was very calm, as if it was not himself who had sacrificed half of the primordial god, and he said, "I use my primordial god as nourishment to maintain your life and let you live, but you can only live for three years." And now I have only given you half of it, and I will slowly give you the other half in the future. After that, the lives of the two of us are tied together, one is prosperous, and the other is lost. ”

"But," the elder chuckled softly,

"I'm afraid there will be no glory in the future, only loss."

Ying said, "If I die in three years, will the elders die too?" ”

The air seemed to be still, and after a brief silence, the elder said.

Ying couldn't believe it: "I don't need the elders to do this for me, I'm just the daughter of a poor family, and my only mother is dead, I don't have to worry about it, it's not a pity to die." You are an elder of the clan, how can you take your own life to save me? ”

The elder shook his head, "You underestimated your own worth. You are the catastrophe of the demon king, and it is a hurdle that he may not be able to overcome in his life, I still know the demon king, I know that he values love and righteousness, and he will never let go of the people he cares about. Girl, I'm not doing this for you, you're right, I'm an elder of a clan, and I have a heavier responsibility. But I saved you, just for the demons. ”

Ying didn't seem to understand what he meant, and looked at him with some trepidation.

The elder swallowed the fishy greasy that surged to his throat, held back the discomfort of the clamor in his body, and said, "You are the only person that the Demon King values so far. The elders of the elven clan have calculated that there is a calamity in the fate of the demon king, and now I look left and right and feel that this calamity is you. The demon king is bound to cross this catastrophe, I will save you, let you be with the demon king well, also for the demon king, for the future of the demon race. ”

Ying didn't understand these righteousness, she only knew that the elder could only live for three years in order to save her, and such a heaviness would simply crush her. She sat on her knees on the bed, her head bowed in grief, and if the elders had told her earlier that the way to save her was this, she would not have agreed.

Xiang Chunmei looked at the elder, and didn't expect him to do this, sure enough, Ying's life has reached a desperate situation, the elder's method is just to delay time, and the effect of the Yuan Shen allows a human to live for more than three years. Generally, no one will use such a self-harming method to save others, which is simply pushing themselves into the fire pit.

But the elder really did it, and he promised Baili Kareh that he had to do it.

Xiang Chunmei's feeling was right, she had noticed something abnormal from the beginning, what Baili Jialie didn't notice, and Ying didn't pay attention to. She, an outsider, saw it clearly. The hesitation that flashed on the elder's face when he agreed to Baili Jialie, and the struggle in his eyes when he asked Ying Er's choice of one way to live, he may not want to live, but for the sake of the future of the demon race, he chose to sacrifice.

Ying didn't understand why the elder did this, but after a thousand years, Xiang Chunmei understood. She knew the status of the demon clan in the Six Realms after a thousand years, and knew how unstoppable Baili Jialie had become, all of which was probably related to the elder's decision at this moment. The prosperity and brightness of the demon race was not achieved overnight, but with the painstaking efforts of the predecessors.

What the elder has experienced is the trough of the demon race, it is an undeterred demon clan that will even be plundered by neighbors, Xiang Chunmei doesn't know if he has experienced the heyday of the demon race, but she has seen the power of the demon race after a thousand years, and knows that what she sees in front of her is really not worth mentioning. The demon clan that the elder hopes to see must be the one that no one dares to fight, the demon clan standing at the top of the Six Realms. And the only one who can lead the demon race to the peak is Baili Jialie.

The calamity of Baili Kalie was a thorn in the elder's heart, and he had not yet survived, and the elder's heart was not at peace for a day. Ying's appearance made him see a vague future, and he was sure that Ying was the catastrophe of Baili Jialie, and the act of sacrificing the Yuan Shen without hesitation was more like a flattery. He traded himself for Baili Kareh, and no one knew what would happen after that, but he decided to take a gamble.
