Han Rui paid no mind to what he said and was about to make his move.
Bai Han smiled and shook his head, retreating a step further. "The Hall of Heavenly Sacrifice is about to open. It's the final crucial moment."
Everything in the divine hall became incredibly clear, as if within reach.
Han Rui's hand froze in place, but after a moment of hesitation, he reached out again. "I don't care about your Hall of Heavenly Sacrifice. As the heir to a pharmaceutical company, I've been taught to rationally save many, many people since childhood. I absolutely will not let the two of you die before my eyes!"
However, Bai Han beat him to it, tightly grasping Han Rui's hand to stop his action.
"My heart's blood can help Xiao Xi open the Hall of Heavenly Sacrifice and resurrect Han Mo. You know my injuries. If you pull it out now, you might not survive, and Xiao Xi won't be able to save Han Mo. This is another trauma for Xiao Xi. If Xiao Xi's condition deteriorates further, then three people will die – me, Xiao Xi, and Han Mo. You should be able to calculate this account easily, right?"
Hearing this, Han Rui's eyes widened, and the hand Bai Han held stopped moving.
Bai Han was growing weaker, his face turning paler.
Han Rui looked at the two of them. "Damn it, it's just blood, right? I'm going all in!"
As he spoke, he directly ripped open his t-shirt, grabbed the dagger from the cart, and slashed his own chest!
Blood dripped onto the high platform at that instant, and the red light intensified.
Bai Han stared at the person before him, stunned for a long moment.
Yes, the Han family possessed supernatural abilities, and their blood was no exception, including Han Rui's.
After Han Rui's blood landed on the sacrificial altar, he felt a sharp pain. The pain was inexplicable; he had only cut his chest, yet the pain spread throughout his entire body.
It was as if tiny needles were pricking him all over, causing both pain and an itchy, swollen sensation. While not extremely intense, it was still unbearable.
"Ahhhh..."
Seeing this, Xuan Feng charged forward again, but was still repelled by the red light.
At this moment, the red light suddenly vanished, and along with it, Bai Xi, Han Rui, and Bai Han disappeared.
Shangguan Wen: "What… what is happening?"
Xuan Feng looked at the scene before him and fiercely lunged towards the sacrificial altar.
But on the altar, apart from the eerie patterns filled with the blood of the three, there was nothing else. Seeing this, Xuan Feng slammed his fist into the altar, "Han Rui, Lord God of War..."
When Bai Xi woke up, she found herself in the divine hall, bathed in red light.
The divine hall was tall, silent, and serene. The spot where she lay was the rear courtyard of the hall. Around her were countless orchids, silent and fragrant, their scent refreshing and comforting, making her feel incredibly at ease.
Not far away, there was a lotus pond, with blooming lotuses and round lily pads.
Further on, there were even winter plum blossoms and peach blossoms.
A single courtyard contained flowers from all four seasons, truly miraculous.
But she had no time to admire these beautiful sights. "Brother, Han Rui..."
Han Rui and Bai Han had fallen not far from them.
Bai Xi immediately rushed towards Bai Han to check his condition.
Fortunately, he was still breathing; he was alive.
She put aside everything else and quickly pulled the metal tube out of him. Then, she administered the medicine Han Mo had given her into his mouth.
Han Rui was not seriously injured and had not lost too much blood. Bai Xi's voice woke him, and his first concern was Bai Han. "Little Xi'er, is he alright?"
Bai Xi looked at Bai Han in her arms, her eyes darkening slightly. "Not good... but he won't die."
Hearing this, Han Rui breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as he won't die, that's good. Otherwise, my blood would have been shed in vain. Little Xi'er, I'm not one to pry, but tell me, are your Bai family members stubborn? They all make people worry so much!"
Bai Xi looked up and glared at Han Rui.
At her gaze, Han Rui felt as if his throat were being choked. "Alright, alright, I won't say it. Your Bai family members are not only stubborn, but their fists are even more so. I can't afford to offend you, I can't afford to offend you."
Bai Xi ignored him, her gaze fixed on the person in her arms.
Bai Han's injuries were severe, and he likely wouldn't wake up anytime soon.
In her previous life, she had hurt him deeply; in this life, was he trying to atone in this way?
She didn't need it.
In this life, since they had both reincarnated, the sins he owed had all been repaid with his life in the previous life. In this life, he should simply be Bai Han.
Upon learning that Bai Han was fine, Han Rui relaxed. He then frowned, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. "This… this… isn't this the divine hall? We actually got in? How magical."
Bai Xi, still holding Bai Han, scanned her surroundings.
Xuan Ji had said that she could find an opportunity to revive Han Mo here... she hadn't fully believed it. But since Bai Han said so, he wouldn't lie to her.
As she cautiously looked around, a woman suddenly appeared out of thin air before her. "Who are you, daring to trespass into the divine hall!"
The woman wore an ancient-style white dress and had a refined beauty. Her large eyes were now fixed on Bai Xi and the others, with a hint of anger.
The woman floated in the air without touching the ground. If one were to encounter such a woman in this environment in the middle of the night, most people would think they had seen a ghost.
"Miss… my husband died saving me. I've come here to find a way to revive him..."
Just as Bai Xi was about to explain her purpose, before she could even finish her sentence, the beautiful woman attacked.
She lightly waved her fingers in front of her, and spiritual energy flowed with her movements. The next second, she pushed a ball of light towards them. "The goddess sealed the spiritual source and fixed it within the divine hall because of you greedy humans. How dare you come here seeking our help!"
This ball of light was a lightning orb that could immobilize a person. If they struggled, it would cause immense pain.
She was determined to punish these three hateful humans properly today.
Just as the ball of light was about to reach Bai Xi and then rapidly expand, engulfing the three of them in its flashing lightning,
At that very moment, the woman before them, along with the two men, vanished. They simply disappeared into thin air.
A familiar fluctuation of spiritual energy brushed past the woman floating in the air, causing her to involuntarily widen her eyes.
The next second, a powerful force abruptly pulled her down, slamming her onto the ground. Simultaneously, a dagger was placed at her throat.
And the one who did this was none other than Bai Xi. Bai Xi looked down at the woman, who was either a fairy or a specter, her eyes icy cold, and said seriously, "Let's talk properly, or don't blame me for being impolite."
