C178 Falling into the Sea in a Coma
Soong Shiyan suddenly felt breathless and extremely uncomfortable. When she opened her eyes, she found herself surrounded by icy water, slowly sinking. In an instant, she understood her current situation — Tiankui had thrown her into the sea while she was unconscious.1
On her hands and knees, she pushed her way upstream. The moment she broke through the surface of the sea, Soong Shiyan was exhausted. She breathed deeply in the fresh air. Although it was already the beginning of spring, the sea water was still bone-chilling cold. She couldn't help but shiver a few times, but instead felt a little more awake.
Soong Shiyan wiped the salty water off her face and looked around. Tiankui stood on a white yacht not too far away, looking down at her from her vantage point. Soong Shiyan couldn't see her face clearly because they were so far apart.
After soaking in the icy cold water for a while, Soong Shiyan could no longer feel the cold. In her heart, she was extremely worried about her current situation — as she floated on this pitch-black sea, she didn't respond to her words every day, and her cries were incredibly slow. The only person who could save her was Tiankui! As for Tiankui, she seemed to really want her dead!
No, she couldn't die without taking revenge! Thinking of this, Soong Shiyan didn't care about anything else as she swam towards Tiankui with all her might, finally arriving near the white yacht.
Soong Shiyan raised her head to look at Tiankui. With a helpless expression, she asked, "Tiankui, what are you trying to do?"
"What is it? Of course I'm going to let you die! Only when you die can Xiao Jiu's soul return to her body, "Tiankui looked at Soong Shiyan and explained coldly," Soong Shiyan, you and I do indeed have no grudges, but since you took over Xiao Jiu's body, don't blame me for being heartless.
Soong Shiyan tried her best to remain calm after hearing Tiankui's words. She looked at Tiankui and said loudly, "Tiankui, do you really think that as long as I die, Dijin will be able to return to her body?"
"Isn't it?" Tiankui looked at Soong Shiyan and asked.
"Tiankui, you know clearly in your heart that the reason why I was able to enter Dijin's body was because she was already dead. Her soul had already left her body. So, even if I die now, Dijin will not be able to come back. " Soong Shiyan kindly advised, hoping to change Tiankui's mind.
It hadn't been easy for her to be reborn from Dijin's body, and now, she still hadn't completed her great quest for revenge. If she died just like that in the sea, how could she possibly rest in peace?
"Soong Shiyan, the reason you have such agile movements must be because of the will left in her body by Xiao Jiu. This meant that Xiao Jiu originally had a chance to return to her body. "But, it's because of you that you stole her body — perhaps right now, Xiao Jiu's soul has nowhere to go. She can only wander around in this deep sea alone!" Tiankui said in a somewhat paranoid manner.
"Tiankui, maybe, Dijin is like me, possessing someone else's body?" Soong Shiyan said as she pondered.
"Absolutely impossible. If Xiao Jiu could be reborn, how could she not come looking for me? " Tiankui said with a resolute expression.
"When I was reborn, I lost all my memories at the beginning. Only later on did I remember. Maybe, like me, Dijin also lost her memories and didn't come looking for you. " Soong Shiyan continued, hoping Tiankui would believe her.
"Soong Shiyan, stop wasting words in front of me! Since Xiao Jiu fell into the ocean and died, then, if you were to die in this sea as well, then Xiao Jiu might be able to return. Soong Shiyan, rest assured, when you die, I will immediately bring Xiao Jiu's body back. "
Seeing Tiankui being so stubborn, Soong Shiyan could only continue to plead, "Tiankui, Yinn Haoming, and Yan Duoya's hands are covered in blood. They owe me so many lives. Right now, I have yet to take revenge, so I cannot die! " She looked pleadingly at Tiankui, hoping that she would show mercy.
"Soong Shiyan, your blood feud has nothing to do with me, and neither does it have to do with Dijin. You will definitely die here today! " Tiankui looked at her coldly. A trace of unwillingness flashed through her eyes, but in the end, she still spoke without emotion.
"After finding out the news of their only family member's death, they fled the entire way. However, they were plotted against by their trusted friends and ended up being tainted by several men. Afterwards, trapped in the sea of fire, barely alive, he'd dragged his scarred body into exile. "Later on, after the face of his beloved man was cut, cut, and slashed into pieces, he was mercilessly thrown into the ocean …" Soong Shiyan choked with sobs.
"Tiankui, falling in love with a scumbag like Yinn Haoming is my own doing. I don't blame others, and I have no right to blame others. "But, Yinn Haoming and Yan Duoya, this dog and dog pair, they caused the death of those I care about. How can I let them continue to live a life of luxury and freedom?" Soong Shiyan said with a pained expression.
Hearing Soong Shiyan's words, Tiankui clenched her hands into fists and did not say a word.
"I would only think of taking revenge on Yinn Haoming and Yan Duoya for the sake of those I love. "Just like you, Tiankui, for the sake of Dijin's resurrection, for the sake of an illusory dream, you are willing to kill me … I believe that you, Tiankui, will understand the feelings in my heart." Soong Shiyan looked into Tiankui's eyes. Her eyes were brimming with tears as she said sorrowfully.
Tiankui tilted her head and looked at the boundless night sky, refusing to look into Soong Shiyan's dark eyes. Her hands, hidden behind her back, were clasped tightly, but her face remained impassive.
Xiao Jiu had told her before that she wanted to escape from this place filled with killing, and that it was because she didn't want to live a life filled with bloodlust and fear. She didn't want her hands to be stained with the blood of others. Although Xiao Jiu's expression was cold, in the eyes of others, she could be called a "ruthless person".
However, she was clear that Xiao Jiu only wanted to live a peaceful and peaceful life. However, from the moment they entered the organization, it was destined that they would never have the chance to live such a life.
If, Xiao Jiu knew, she would kill Soong Shiyan for an unrealistic illusion, an extremely slim hope. In that case, even if Xiao Jiu were to come back to life, she might not be able to forgive herself.
It was somewhat laughable to say that she had stayed in the organization for more than ten years, but she had never killed a single person. It was because Xiao Jiu didn't want her hands to be stained with blood, and even more so, she didn't want the lives she carried on her back. Therefore, once the organization started assigning killing tasks, Xiao Jiu would volunteer to take her place.
Most of the time, the boss wouldn't agree to let Xiao Jiu complete the task for her, but Xiao Jiu would also hide the matter from the organization and complete the task at hand as soon as possible. She would travel a thousand miles to Xiao Jiu's side to lend her a hand. Xiao Jiu was very skilled. Even when she was on a mission alone, she rarely got injured. However, because of her, Xiao Jiu was injured several times. As for her, she was able to stay behind the scenes with Xiao Jiu's help, using hacking techniques to gather intelligence, or to assist Xiao Jiu in completing her mission.
