Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant Chapter 355

Found It

In a second, in the instant when the python's head bumped against the wall, she hurriedly ran toward Lin Zhizhao's direction.
After that snake reacted, it hurriedly chased them.

This snake must have grown up by eating dead human meat, and later, it caught and killed some prey in the mountain, so it looked especially gigantic.

Ye Mu met with Lin Zhizhao quickly.
Her ears perked up, vaguely hearing something, and then hastily pulled Lin Zhizhao to run to the left!

The python had them in relentless hot pursuit, and Ye Mu ran even quicker, her hearing becoming even clearer!

It's underground water! Water means survival, by jumping into the water, they might be able to go out!

This thought bolstered Ye Mu.
She grabbed Lin Zhizhao's hand and ran at lightning speed!

Lin Zhizhao said, “I…….I can't run anymore, you, yourself…….”

“Shut up!” Ye Mu clenched her teeth.
“We're surviving this together.
Can you swim?”

Lin Zhizhao said, “Can't.”

Ye Mu smiled.
“Then you'll have to learn in a while.”

Hearing the snake coming nearer and nearer, and the water sound becoming louder and louder, she said, “Take a deep breath!”

Lin Zhizhao took a deep breath.

When the python suddenly stretched its head out to bite them, Ye Mu shouted, “Jump!”

And then Lin Zhizhao followed Ye Mu, jumping down with no second thoughts!

The python had ferociously opened its mouth wide to bite, but then saw the two prey in front had disappeared.

Jumping down a few meters away, they fell into an ice-cold water.
Ye Mu tightly gripped Lin Zhizhao's hand, but Lin Zhizhao was desperately struggling in the water.
Finally, he hugged Ye Mu's hand.

Ye Mu felt the water current became faster and faster.
In the end, she said, “Not good!”

Then, she hugged Lin Zhizhao as they were suddenly washed away by the water.
An enormous rock dangerously swept past above their heads.
In a second, the two felt their eyes brightened, and their lower body suddenly became empty!

“Ahhh!” Lin Zhizhao couldn't help shrieking.
Soon after, he and Ye Mu plummeted down the waterfall, with a bottomless cliff below them!

Stretching her hand out in haste, Ye Mu clung onto a tree vine just in time, and the other hand gripped Lin Zhizhao.
Lin Zhizhao glanced at the precipitous cliff below and felt that the whole day today, he had used up all his nine lives*! If not for Ye Mu, he would have died long ago and wouldn't be able to die again!

*the idiom is actually “nine deaths, still alive” which means narrowly escaping from death

Ye Mu clenched her teeth, saying, “Jump onto the rock beside you!”

She shouted very loudly.
Beside the waterfall, three meters to their left was an enormous rock, extending about five meters tall from the cliff.

Lin Zhizhao didn't know where his courage came from, he actually borrowed Ye Mu's arm to swing and used all his strength to jump!

But when he jumped there, because the rock was too slippery, he immediately fell, and then rolled over and over.
He rolled so fast that he was about to roll down the cliff!

Ye Mu who jumped after caught hold of him, and once again saved his life that was hanging by a thread!

After running for his life, Lin Zhizhao didn't want to move anymore.
He lay down on the rock, letting the water spray on him now and then.
He looked at the blue sky above, and never felt the world outside was so fine.

Ye Mu also sat down, exhausted.
Right now they were drenched all over, but their hearts were aflamed.
They survived!

“What did I say? As long as I'm here, you won't die!”

Ye Mu smiled, revealing her pearly white teeth.
She gasped heavily for breath, and Lin Zhizhao took a long time to recover before feeling relieved.
Out of breath, he said, “Sure we didn't die in the underground palace, but look where we are now.
Above is the waterfall and below is the cliff.
After two days, we'll die here from hunger!”

Ye Mu said, “That might not happen!” Then she took out the fireworks to set off the signal.
Being prepared for the unexpected, she had carefully packed the fireworks and kept them from getting wet, but what was frustrating was that the fire didn't ignite at all!

“Hahaha! What did I say?” Seeing Ye Mu disappointed, Lin Zhizhao deliberately laughed out loud.
“See, so we're really going to die here.
My eyes of heaven have never been wrong!”

With a solemn expression, Ye Mu looked at him.
“Then look at me carefully now.
Do I still have death qi?”

Lin Zhizhao listened, fixedly staring at her.

Suddenly, he noticed a strange matter.
He saw the black qi on Ye Mu had disappeared like a tide.
Not only that, but originally his world, even if it was of crystal-clear water and blue sky, he would still be able to see some darkness.
But right now, he couldn't see the darkness.
He picked up the mirror to look at his own face, and finally came up with a conclusion.

“My eyes of heaven…….are gone……”

Ye Mu heard it and immediately smiled.
“That's a good thing!”

“Good thing?” Lin Zhizhao felt a sense of loss.
When he had it before, he dreaded this pair of eyes.
But now that it was suddenly gone, he felt disappointed as if he lost something.

Ye Mu nodded.
“Sometimes, something unordinary may not necessarily be a good thing, and sometimes, something mediocre may not necessarily be a bad thing.”

Her words carried profound meaning.
Hearing them, Lin Zhizhao felt as if her voice echoed in his ears, telling him to ponder over it again.

At last, he petted his mother's remains on his chest, suddenly laughing.

If it was gone then let it be gone.
Just like she said, sometimes, mediocrity may not necessarily be a bad thing.

“It's just a pity……” He shook his head.
“We didn't get to see the last of the Bright King Map.
Before, it felt scary inside, but after going out, it feels quite regretful.”

But Ye Mu said, “Not a pity, because I've found what I sought.”

“En?” Lin Zhizhao looked up at her, but saw Ye Mu pointing to the front.

“Look.”

He subconsciously followed her fingertip, and found that at this height, this angle, the scenery before his eyes was exceptionally majestic!

In the midst of the misty water vapor, the mountains and sky beyond melted away into a beautiful view.

There were two continuous and unending mountain ranges, looking like two dragons playing with pearls chasing one another.
Lin Zhizhao looked at the shocking sight before him, suddenly in a daze!

Because this scene was exactly the same as the previously seen City Boundary Map!

He cried out, “It's the City Boundary Map!”

Ye Mu smiled, somewhat slyly.

“I've guessed early on, this emperor's imperial tomb should be related to the City Boundary Map, and now it looks like it's true!”

She pointed at the mountains in the distance, and loudly said, “The empire's emperor thought to go as far as to guard his own treasure after death.
This idea is really interesting, it's just too bad that now, it's discovered by us!”

Lin Zhizhao looked at the mountains and couldn't utter a word after a long time.
Before, his father had looked for it here for many years and was in vain.
In the end, he even thought the treasure was not in this place.

But Ye Mu on the other hand, she actually scored a lucky hit.
Could it be the will of Heaven? She…….truly is the Purple Star Emperor*, a predestined nobility!

*also known as Ziwei (pinyin) star, The North star or The Emperor star, being the star that is most prominent and brightest, and having the noble color purple.
In Chinese culture and theology, it symbolizes the human world's emperor.
