It was not until half a second later that he suddenly returned to his senses and ran wildly toward the young girl on the ground.

“You'er!”

This voice, filled with despair and grief, echoed throughout Nine Gate.

All the members of Nine Gate came out of their mountains.

When they saw Hui You's soul and Nan Luo lying on the ground, they already understood what was going on.

‘It seems that Qiu Hui was right. What is within this body is indeed not Hui You…'

“NO!!!”

Hui Yan's eyes were bloodshot, and his face was filled with grief.

All people in Nine Gate knew that Hui Yan loved his daughter a lot, and he would not let her suffer any aggravation.

Now, she lay on the ground, lifeless.

“You'er, I'm sorry… I'm sorry… Father was wrong!”

If he could have found out earlier, perhaps You'er would not have ended up dead.

It was all his fault!

Suddenly, Hui Yan seemed to remember something. He turned around and rushed toward Feng Ruqing.

Nan Xian raised his hand, swept up a gust of wind, sending Hui Yan flying away violently.

However, Hui Yan still got up. He rolled and crawled toward Feng Ruqing with hope in his eyes.

“Please… Please save my daughter. I beg you!!!”

“I have made many mistakes, and it was all my fault. I was too stupid. I deserve to die… As long as you can save my daughter, I am willing to pay any price. You can kill me or destroy my soul… As long as I can save her… Please…”

She was his life.

And his only hope in this world.

She was also his only family.

Feng Ruqing glanced at Hui Yan, who was already dead. “She is gone… Her soul is gone.”

‘Her soul is gone…'

These four words, like a heavy hammer, hit Hui Yan's heart hard.

He coughed a mouthful of blood, and his body felt like it had aged tens of years, losing all its strength at once.

He thought that Hui You was just dead.

But…

Her soul was also gone.

It completely disappeared from this world!

Feng Ruqing looked at Hui Yan expressionless.

She deliberately told Hui Yan this fact because this was what he should bear!

Hui You died because of him.

If…

If he had listened to others and not become a fool, he would have found out long ago that the one in front of him was not his daughter.

He had killed his daughter.

“No… Impossible…”

Hui Yan shook his head and muttered, “She's not going to die. You're lying to me. You must have a way to save her.”

“Save her?” Feng Ruqing sneered, “If it were a year earlier, there are people who could still save her. I'm not the only one who could save her. As long as you have found out that she was not Hui You, you could have pulled out Nan Luo's soul, and your daughter only needed some time to recover like a sick child.

“But it's too late now. Her soul has disappeared. How do you expect me to save her?”

Hui Yan got up from the ground and stumbled a bit as he took a few steps back.

‘Indeed… Her soul is gone. How does one save her?'

Hui Yan clenched his fists tightly, and his pale body trembled harder.
