Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 1330: Chapter 1329: The End

Jiang Cheng didn’t say anything either, actually judging from the situation, it seemed Xiaokang didn’t have much chance of survival. Now, let him say everything he wants to say.

Speaking was becoming increasingly difficult.

Brother, please save him, save Brother Xiaokang, he’s really not going to make it.” Tears rolled down Qi’s cheeks at this moment, as he was engulfed in immense sorrow.

Jiang Cheng looked at Qi’s appearance with great sympathy, but he really had no way, no method to save Xiaokang.

Qi, don’t cry anymore, listen, it seems Xiaokang still wants to talk to you.

Wang saw Xiaokang continuously looking at Qi, as if he still wanted to say something.

Qi pressed his head tightly against Xiaokang’s lips, fearing he’d miss something.

Brother Xiaokang, just speak, I’m listening.” Qi wiped his eyes and spoke.

Jiang Cheng saw Xiaokang trembling with his hands, trying to dig something out of his pocket, but at this moment, his body seemed no longer under his control, taking forever to pull anything out.

Finally, he pulled out a Jade Pendant, a round-shaped pendant that looked quite lush, crystal clear green, full of color.

You, take it. Xiaokang handed the pendant in his hand to Qi.

Qi took it, looking at Xiaokang’s dying appearance, almost unable to suppress his grief, great tears falling on Xiaokang’s face.

You, take it, this is from my, my mom. My mom is the only concern I have left in this world. If you have, Xiaokang still wanted to say something, but at this moment, streams of heavy blood began to gush from his nose and mouth.

I know, I know, you want me to take care of her, don’t worry, Brother Xiaokang, I will treat her like my own mother. Don’t worry, you just stop talking now. Qi scrambled to block Xiaokang’s nose and mouth with his hand, as if this would stop the blood coming out.

Qi cried fiercely. His hand was stained bright red by Xiaokang’s blood, but Qi still kept saying, ”You’ll be okay. Brother Xiaokang, you told me you’d take me abroad. You said you’d be my free tour guide. You said the desert sunset was the most beautiful. You also said, you said,” Qi was already unable to speak.

But Xiaokang always smiled faintly, showing no sorrow from the impending death. He kept smiling, looking at Qi as if seeing his most beloved younger brother. He slowly raised his hand, reaching towards Qi’s face. But just as he touched Qi’s face, Xiaokang’s pupils dispersed, and his hand dropped. Motionless.

Brother Xiaokang, wake up, you!” Qi pulled Xiaokang’s hand, kept shaking it, but Xiaokang remained lifeless.

Wang watched Qi like this, also slowly turned around, raising a hand as if wiping away tears. Jiang Cheng looked at Qi, a bit touched as well, he seemed to see the image of Qi and Xiaokang together before. Their smiling faces appeared before his eyes. He had thought they could always stay safe, but now, so suddenly, Xiaokang had an accident.

Qi knelt beside Xiaokang, holding Xiaokang’s jade pendant, sobbing uncontrollably. ”Qi, enough, don’t cry anymore.” Jiang Cheng said to Qi while kneeling beside him, gently touching Qi’s shoulder.

Qi still didn’t move, just looked at Jiang Cheng, ”What should we do about Brother Xiaokang? Let’s take him with us. It’s so cold here, he’d be lonely on his own.” Qi croaked slowly.

Qi’s eyes completely lacked focus, the whole person appeared disoriented. Tear stains were visible on his face, as if his previous energy had been completely drained away. He just took out tissues and slowly wiped Xiaokang’s blood off his face until Xiaokang’s original appearance was revealed. That’s when he stopped.

Qi, I know you’re very sad, it’s hard to accept, but we are also heartbroken. Yet, it’s really dangerous here, we might lose our lives at any moment, carrying Xiaokang is not realistic. Wang said to Qi.

Qi said nothing, merely looked at Xiaokang’s corpse, remaining silent.

However, he seemed not to want to listen to Wang’s words at all. He stubbornly kept staring at the body.

Wang saw Qi so immobile, looked somewhat helplessly at Jiang Zai, seeking help from Jiang Cheng with his eyes.

Jiang Cheng naturally knew they couldn’t carry Xiaokang’s body, but at the moment, he also didn’t know how to soothe Qi’s emotions. ”Qiqi, it’s not that we won’t take him, it’s truly dangerous here. We can settle Xiaokang first, and when we come out, we’ll take him away together. Okay?” Jiang Cheng’s voice was slow and calming towards Qi.

Qi’s facial expression slightly loosened after hearing Jiang Cheng, ”Really can’t take him?” Qi hesitantly looked at Jiang Cheng. But Jiang Cheng knew he couldn’t agree, couldn’t soften.

Hmm, really can’t.” Jiang Cheng replied.

Qi still was reluctant, taking one last look at Xiaokang’s body, with brows tightly knit. After a while, seemingly making a sudden decision, grappling with inner conflict, he took off his coat and wrapped it around Xiaokang, placing his body in a nearby stone crevice.

After doing all this, Qi became somewhat breathless, Jiang Cheng could see his inner struggle and reluctance, finally, after taking one last look at Xiaokang, he turned beside Jiang Cheng, ”Let’s go.”

Jiang Cheng still worried a bit about Qi’s state, watching him suddenly tidy his emotions, Jiang Cheng felt even worse within.

Brother, it’s okay, let’s go, let’s go, why are you still so worried about me. What could happen to me?” Qi said to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng said nothing, simply patted Qi’s shoulder and smiled comfortingly. For such a big child, witnessing such scenes, being able to act like this showed great inner strength.

So the three of them returned to where the tomb chamber had been earlier, now many stones lay on the ground, and the tightly shut stone door of the tomb chamber was open.

”Let’s go in. Once inside, be more careful about safety.” Jiang Cheng said to Wang and Qi.

Hmm. Don’t worry.” Wang answered.

Once inside, what Jiang Cheng saw was complete darkness, with no trace of light, unable to see even a bit in front. Jiang Cheng then took out his flashlight.

Wang behind also took out a flashlight, the two illuminated the path ahead, brightening the view considerably. Now Jiang Cheng saw this was a straight passage, without any characteristic stone slabs.

After walking for about ten minutes, Jiang Cheng felt he was nearing the end. Seeing there was already a door here, unable to go any further, no other path.

There’s a Daoist Sect here, Jiang Cheng said while trying to push the door, discovering it could be opened.

Jiang Cheng entered and found this was also a long stone path.

It seemed identical to the path before.

”Why does this look so much like the previous path? Are we walking through a maze?” Wang said.

This path is different from the previous one.” Jiang Cheng said, ”Let’s continue forward.”

So, Jiang Cheng and the others walked a distance again, but when reaching the end of this path, there appeared a door identical to the previous one.

Another door like this? What’s going on here? Wang asked.
