Chapter 60: Almost Dead
"yeee, almost two hours wasted." Qin Yuan shook his head.
He thought the Queen would be angry if it weren't for his charm.
Now she just kept quiet and immediately took him to the last lake.
The last lake doesn't look any different from the other lakes.
The only thing that was different was that about a few hundred meters behind the lake there was a very large garden with flowers of thousands of different colors.
There, you can see various types of bees, butterflies, birds, and other flying animals. They were of normal size but emitted a mountain-like aura, not inferior to those Giant Beasts.
Even though he was quite far from them, Qin Yuan could already feel their piercing gazes fixed on him and the Sky Butterfly Queen.
"There should be something I'm looking for here," said the Sky Butterfly Queen.
She looked at Qin Yuan and continued, "I will do it quickly, so do your job quickly too, I think it will be quite dangerous!"
After saying that, she immediately flew into the garden.
Qin Yuan didn't delay either, he dove into the lake.
In just a few seconds, he had found the Fragment in the lake, lying among the rocks.
He grabbed it and then asked the System. "How much do I have to pay to read it?"
[40,000 Karma Points!]
"Cough, it really was double before."
Qin Yuan smiled wryly.
Ding
[You managed to obtain 1 Heavenly Scripture Fragment, you gained 20,000 Karma Points. The next one you will get 40,000 Karma Points.]
[Karma Points: 27,800]
Right after that, Qin Yuan suddenly felt the Fragment in his Heart Room vibrate, then that Fragment and the previous Fragment that he had already put into his Storage Ring.
"What happened?"
While he was wondering, the Fragment within his Storage Ring suddenly came out on its own, appearing in his hand so that there were two Fragments now in his hand.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two Fragments then flew to his chest and entered it, appearing in his Heart Space, right beside the Fragment within the Heart Space.
Simultaneously, the three Fragments emitted a gray light mixed with gold, they twisted around each other and looked like they wanted to unite but failed, as if something was preventing them from uniting.
"So it's like that, these three Fragments will eventually unite... Then, is it because the two Fragments are still empty that they failed to unite?"
Qin Yuan couldn't think of any other possibility.
He wanted to see more, so he stuffed 10 Saint Fruits into each of those empty Fragments.
The result was that although the three Fragments were still not fused together, they seemed to be closer to each other.
"Perhaps I can obtain another stage of the Heavenly Path when they fuse," Qin Yuan guessed.
Recalling the aura of the throne, he began to think about the next possibility after the three Fragments had fused.
After that, he took the lake's spring water before jumping straight into the garden.
The Sky Butterfly Queen's situation didn't seem all right when he got there.
She was in her butterfly form and was flying fast from the center of the garden towards the lake.
Thousands of bees were surrounding her, some clinging to her body.
From their auras, Qin Yuan felt that they were being extremely angry.
"What has she taken?"
No time to wonder.
The Sky Butterfly Queen quickly arrived near the lake.
Qin Yuan released his stars which instantly turned into an army that repelled the bees.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the Sky Butterfly Queen fell from the air.
Seeing that, Qin Yuan withdrew her body with Immortal Devouring power.
The moment she arrived in front of him, she returned to her human form.
Her skin had become extremely pale, she also seemed to be having a hard time breathing while her eyes looked as if they would close at any moment. Qin Yuan knew that she used a lot of strength just to keep her eyes open.
"Let's go!" A deep voice escaped her mouth.
Even though she didn't ask for help, the situation didn't allow her to fly anymore.
Qin Yuan quickly used his Spiritual Energy to envelop her body before flying away at full speed.
Of course, if he wanted to, he could have taken advantage of her by hugging her while taking her away.
But he didn't think it was a good thing in winning her heart.
With their level, physical contact was completely unnecessary in carrying other people's bodies, so if he did, it was obvious that he was trying to take advantage.
In the end, she was a Queen with widow status and had a daughter, he couldn't treat her the way he treated Jian Yixue who at that moment had just destroyed his Spiritual Body.
The Sky Butterfly Queen glanced at Qin Yuan with her eyes almost closed, although there was no reaction on her face, her thoughts might be different because she glanced at Qin Yuan again after the first one.
After forcefully stabilizing her breath, she then swallowed a pill that seemed to be made of honey because it was clear gold in color and emitted a sweet scent.
Her eyes were closed and the pill's aura was emitting from her body. Her pale skin was starting to return to normal though quite slowly.
20 minutes later, she opened her eyes again.
"That's a bit unexpected, the venom of the bees is terrible, if you are late for a moment, this place might become my grave," she said with a soft sigh.
Hearing her words, Qin Yuan was quite surprised.
Even though he knew her condition was very bad, he didn't think to the point where she almost died.
"Don't say that, Queen, the Divine World will be sad if you are no longer around," he replied.
The queen shook her head and continued, "I suddenly recalled my youth, near death was common in those days, but since reaching this level, everything seems so small. Even a galaxy so large is only like a small tree that I can easily cut. It makes me almost never think about death again. And now I think it's terrible."
Seeing that she was talking quite a lot, Qin Yuan knew that he needed to accompany her to chat.
It was good that he had also gone through the same thing before, so he had quite a few words to say to her.
"When we are at the peak of the world, the sensation of near death is indeed very frightening, very different from when we were young... In the end, it is because we have lived too comfortably for a long time. And of course, it's because we also have too many burdens and worries, such as children, disciples, and clans, their lives could become very bad if we die."
Hearing his words, the Queen looked as if she had suddenly remembered something. "I almost forgot, you also had a terrible disaster and couldn't go out for a long time..."
"Whether you believe it or not, I should have died two months ago," Qin Yuan replied with a wry smile.
The Sky Butterfly Queen was silent, it didn't look like she didn't believe it.
She then said, "but in the end, you're still alive and even more unpredictable... Your nature has changed a lot too... You know, your spirit and how easy-going you are sometimes makes me jealous."
As she said that, she looked Qin Yuan straight in the eye. It was a calm gaze that was hard to explain.
To be sure, it made this seemingly serious and deep chat suddenly look relaxed.
