In the misty rain, Chu Yunsheng left silently. His lonely figure walked further and further away until he finally disappeared into the dim light.
******
The yacht was still braving the strong wind and the turbulent billows, moving forward quickly, but the inside of the yacht was very quiet.
Since Chu Yunsheng came back, the whole yacht had fallen into a strange atmosphere, no one dared to drink at the bar, and no one dared to make any noise.
The guardian’s mythical appearance shocked everyone except Chu Yunsheng. Especially the ordinary people like Wen Luo, if the existence of vampires was something that they had a hard time accepting quickly, then the existence of the guardian’s god-like appearance directly destroyed their vulnerable minds.
Now, the one thing the ordinary people and all the vampires were thinking was what the position of their undead king among the gods was?
They saw with their own eyes that Chu Yunsheng never kneeled, and didn’t show any sign of fear when the guardian appeared. Not only did he not show any sign of fear, but they also seemed to be communicating on an equal footing. Although they didn’t understand what they were talking about, this could be seen from Chu Yunsheng’s reaction and each other’s behaviors.
Although they wanted to know very much, no one dared to ask the undead king. As a result, the whole yacht became deadly silent since Chu Yunsheng came back.
Buterne drove away everyone from the kitchen and found Ashe to guard the kitchen with her.
Normally, according to Chu Yunsheng’s arrangement, she didn’t have the right to command Ashe to do anything. However, the fact was that those who once violated their oath always felt inferior in front of Buterne and her people after they surrendered. This naturally included Ashe.
Buterne walked near the window to listen to the night rain outside. Her green eyes gleaming with misty light, her brows frowned slightly as she took out a cigarette and lit it. Smoke was blown out softly from her sexy vermilion lips and spread over on the window glass.
The name that Chu Yunsheng shouted heartbreakingly still lingered in her ears, and the image of him shouting hysterically was still vivid in her mind. Moreover, the clear sorrow that showed on his face after he came back to the yacht…
“My lord, what exactly happened to you in the past…”
…
At noon the next day, the yacht finally crossed Arizona and arrived in California, on the west coast of the United States.
When Chu Yunsheng appeared in the kitchen, he still ordered a plate of egg-fried rice, but to the cook Lao Wang’s surprise, he also ordered some sugar.
From the moment he entered the kitchen, the whole dining area suddenly fell silent, leaving only Lao Wang’s cooking noise echoing back and forth in the dining room.
Most people knew what happened last night, so they didn’t know what Chu Yunsheng would do next.
Ashe was particularly worried, and she was prepared to ask Chu Yunsheng’s forgiveness.
But Chu Yunsheng didn’t mention anything. He only sat in the dining area and ate the rice quietly.
Because of the cold half-dead body, Chu Yunsheng’s palate was not very sensitive, so he had to eat slowly to taste the flavor of the egg fried rice.
Although he was very careful, he still had a hard time controlling his body accurately. Especially his fingers. In the end, a few grains of rice fell out of the plate.
Looking at the few rice grains and looking at his pale hands that he could barely feel the temperature, Chu Yunsheng paused. After he took a deep breath, he firmly held the spoon and continued to eat carefully.
But no matter how hard he tried, and no matter how careful he tried, the rice was still tasteless to him, and more and more rice grains started to fall out of the plate.
He tried very hard, chewing carefully over and over again. In the eyes of everyone who dared not to make a sound, he finished half of the rice, but eventually, he gave up.
Since coming back last night, he was mentally exhausted and was sitting in the dining area in a daze until dawn. Looking at those rice grains and his clumsy hands, feeling the body temperature that he could barely feel, and thinking about everything that had happened in his entire life, he suddenly wanted to cry.
He wanted to finish this plate of egg fried rice, but he couldn’t do it. He couldn’t eat it anymore. He wanted to pretend to be okay, but he could no longer pretend it.
He tried his best to control the reaction of his body. Shaking slightly, he pushed the plate away, got up, and returned to his cabin in silence. Until he locked the door, he never said a single word.
All the people in the dining area looked at each other and then looked at the rice grains in confusion.
Soon after Chu Yunsheng went back, a loud wail from a man under the quilt appeared in the closed cabin. It was sorrowful and desolate.
The wail continued for a long time. All the vampires were shocked when they heard the cry at first, but gradually, they became infected by the sorrowful and desolate cry, and their faces were solemn.
They couldn’t imagine that a powerful undead king who could take people’s lives easily would cry so desolately and sorrowfully under the quilt. The tears of men could touch people’s hearts, let alone it was the tears of the undead king.
In the bursts of cries, some people suddenly felt that the undead king was actually not that powerful. He was just as vulnerable as they were. And he also had a miserable past that he didn’t have the courage to face.
Buterne looked at the rain outside the window, Ashe was silent, Wen Luo began to worry about her relatives on the other side of the ocean, and the cook Lao Wang didn’t know whether he should clear the half-eaten egg fried rice or not.
…
The heavy rain outside the ship gradually stopped, and the crying in the lounge gradually weakened. As if the undead king had fallen asleep, there was no sound for a long time.
The emotions of the vampires in the kitchen were affected. Feeling dispirited, they all gradually left the dining area.
When the yacht passed Joshua Tree National Park at night and approached the city of Los Angeles, Chu Yunsheng walked out of his cabin, sat on the bow of the yacht, and looked up at the starry sky after the dark clouds dissipated.
Above his head, there were four giant astral bodies that were big enough to reveal the craters on them slowly falling in the direction of Earth. And the heavy rain recently, according to the Guardian who sent him back, was caused by one of these planets, in terms of the other three planets, they could be seen from the other side of the earth.
This was the seventh era’s disaster: The fall of seven stars.
The space-time pit had a shrinking process before the big bang. Whether the earth could escape the fate of being completely destroyed depended on whether it could escape before it shrank completely.
However, this thing should be worried by the guardian. All the humans of the seventh era must escape before this. Otherwise, after the heavy rain, the collapse of other stars would bring endless meteorites. It would destroy the entire planet, killing everything on it.
One of them, the Red Planet, was already very close. The great gravity of the celestial body could already lift up a lot of the lighter things in the flood.
When the seven stars became even closer, not to mention that the air may escape under the pull of gravity, and other things like the magnetic field may become chaotic; even ordinary humans would be lifted up and never fall back down again.
Chu Yunsheng sat under the giant red planet, looking at the reflection of the sky on the water. At the moment, it was like there were countless dazzling stars above and below them, and the yacht was like a spaceship suspended in the void of the boundless universe.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, he who was calmly smoking the cigarette did not look back. “You didn’t expect that I would cry too?”
The person was Buterne, Ashe would not dare to get closer to Chu Yunsheng again after what happened that night.
She came up to him, sat down, and looked at the starry sky in the water like him. After hesitating for a few seconds, she asked carefully, “Was it for her?”
Chu Yunsheng smiled slightly, looked up at the falling red planet, and said, “For myself.”
He didn’t want to talk to Buterne about his own personal affairs. Pointing to the red planet, he said, “I just noticed that all of you have come outside to see the strange sky. Those things will hit the earth soon, are you not worried?”
Buterne frowned while looking at the huge red planet, and then calmly looked at Chu Yunsheng, the look in her eyes was very firm.
“Don’t trust me that much…”
Chu Yunsheng smiled, shook his head, and stood up. Turning around, he said to the people that were still looking at the sky, “Don’t you all like parties? Let’s get drunk tonight! Tomorrow, the seven stars will fall, whether we will be able to get to the new world, this is the last time you will be able to have fun!”
