Book of Disaster

"It's almost time. Let me put an end to your life once and for all. You are just a tiny ant with a pathetic life."

At the last moment, when the golden light on Li Yi's body completely dissipated, the potential explosion brought by the golden needle at the vital point was completely consumed, and the black dragon indifferently stretched out a huge dragon claw.

The sharp claw tip was as hard as a diamond, and it suddenly pierced through Li Yi's chest like cutting tofu, making a creepy sound.

The deadly claw pierced into the chest and came out from the back, and the blinding blood spurted out along the sharp claws of the black dragon.

Li Yi, that once indestructible body, was now easily torn apart.

Under the sky, the sturdy body was like an abandoned sandbag, hanging under the black dragon's claws, swaying in the wind.

His body was still strong, but the strength in his body was long gone.

"brute!"

Li Yi opened his eyes with difficulty and used his remaining strength to spit out a final curse at the black dragon in front of him.

"Oh?"

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of the black dragon's mouth. His sharp teeth were white. He suddenly opened his mouth and let out a sharp hissing sound, violently tearing off Li Yi's right arm.

Blood splattered everywhere, covering the sky.

"Li Yi!"

A shrill cry was heard in the distance. When Bai Qi saw this scene, his eyes were bloodshot.

"You beast!"

He roared and waved his arms weakly.

The black dragon heard the roar, still chewing Li Yi's arm in its mouth. It turned its head and looked through the jungle, locking onto the exhausted Bai Qi.

"Hahaha, another little bug."

There was a hint of teasing in the black dragon's voice:

"I suddenly changed my mind. I'll let you two little bugs die together."

The rumbling sound was deafening. The black dragon's huge claws slapped down suddenly. The terrifying power it carried caused Li Yi's chest to explode in an instant, breaking his bones and tearing his muscles.

Ever since Li Yi activated the golden needle at his vital point, his life force had been on the verge of collapse, and the fatal blow from the Black Dragon ruthlessly extinguished his last bit of life.

The violent force threw his broken body out like a kite with a broken string, and slammed towards the direction where Bai Qi was in the distance, hitting the ground heavily, causing dust and smoke to fly.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

The black dragon's laughter was low and cold. It turned its head suddenly and soared into the sky again.

In this land, no one can escape, no one can avoid, the Black Dragon's game has just begun.

This is the power of God, who can decide life and death at will.

And in that forest, Bai Qi endured the severe pain and the aftermath of the explosion, and staggered towards the place where Li Yi fell.

In a deep pit, Bai Qi finally found Li Yi.

His breathing was weak, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

His eyes fell on the once strong body, lying quietly with blood dripping, bones and broken tendons. Bai Qi's throat tightened and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.

"You stupid!"

Bai Qi crawled over and hugged his body.

"Sir, it's you..."

Li Yi barely opened his red and swollen eyes, and through the tiny gap that was left, he vaguely saw the figure in front of him, with a hint of confusion in his eyes:

"Why, why are you still here?"

"I can't leave, I can't leave..."

Bai Qi was filled with grief and anger, and kept shaking his head.

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then he felt relieved. No matter what the reason or cause was, it didn't matter now.

"Why are you so stupid? Why didn't you run away? You could have escaped, why did you stay? Why did you sacrifice yourself?"

Bai Qi couldn't help but ask:

"...You clearly know what Xu Xuansu and I mean!"

Li Yi just smiled when he heard this. He looked calm and raised his head to the sky, as if he had seen through everything:

"Well, sir, life and death are trivial matters."

"Life can be as light as a feather or as heavy as a mountain. There are always things in life that are more important than life and death. I cannot abandon those things and run away alone."

Bai Qi opened his mouth but remained silent, feeling even more grief-stricken.

"Cough cough."

A sharp pain caused Li Yi to cough. Every cough seemed to tear his lungs. Blood and foam intertwined and overflowed from the corners of his lips, which was heartbreaking.

At this moment, as Li Yi's body rose and fell, something the size of a palm fell down.

Bai Qi couldn't help but look over and recognized it at a glance. It was the rag doll that Li Yi always carried with him and was also his most treasured thing.

Even in such a fierce battle just now, this rag doll was still intact. Li Yi seemed to have been protecting it carefully, as if it was some kind of spiritual sustenance for him.

The only difference compared to the bonfire night in memory is that it is now stained with Li Yi's blood, appearing mottled and tragic.

The word "courage" written in ink against the bloody background seemed to be imbued with a sense of silent sadness.

Li Yi's eyes moved, as if he wanted to say something.

Bai Qi understood and quickly grabbed the doll and put it in his hand.

"…I understand. Here, here."

Bai Qi held his hand and spoke in a low voice.

"Cough cough."

Unexpectedly, Li Yi shook his head, not looking at the rag doll that he always carried with him:

"It's not important anymore, ahem..."

"Sir, do you know... why I always carry this doll with me?"

"I know I know……"

Bai Qi kept repeating:

"This is a gift from someone who is very important to you. This is your dream."

In a trance, Bai Qi seemed to have returned to the bonfire night not long ago.

At that time, everyone was playing and joking together, and the atmosphere was so harmonious.

Before he knew it, Bai Qi's eyes became moist and he couldn't help choking up.

At this moment, a faint smile appeared on Li Yi's face, as if all the pain had disappeared in that instant.

"Sir... then do you know who left the word 'courage' on this rag doll?"

Li Yi's voice was weak, as if he was asking a question, or as if he was talking to himself.

"Stop it, you'll be fine, stop it..."

Bai Qi shook his head and held Li Yi's arm tightly. His eyes were red and he seemed to be trying hard to hold back the tears.

"Ahem... Sir, that man... is actually... your grandfather!"

“That’s the person I met when I was five years old!”

“He also left these two words for me.”

On his deathbed, in the last moments of his life, Li Yi finally gave the answer. A smile appeared on his face and his eyes suddenly lit up. At this moment, his thoughts seemed to drift back to the endless time before.

“He is my idol!”

"!!!"

Boom, as if a bolt of thunder fell, Bai Qi trembled all over and was stunned for a moment.
