The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

Chapter 3: Alright, Next Time, I'll Follow You.

Shao Cheng that has spoken with a smile on his beautiful face, became quiet after seeing as the enchanting man peach blossom grey eyes seemed to widen a bit while remaining rooted in his spot.

However, he was unable to stop himself as he once more let out a loud cough and this time, spurting more larger blood from before, while his chest seemed to shudder as he finally starting to breathe harder.

Although the poison has been lethal and should have killed him right away however the only reason why he was living more longer today is not only base of his great determination and will to live a bit more longer but because of the training he has done toward his body in the past, in order to not die by poison in this world, he has trained his body to be resistance to any lethal poison for future safety.

After all, aside from being assassinated, poison is the most useful methods use in ancient times.

"Third Brother Cheng!"

The other man with a bit similar appearance to Shao Cheng has suddenly shouted in worry before dashing forward in anxiousness and panic expression on his much younger handsome face.

Silly child, Shao Cheng couldn't help but inwardly reprimand, while feeling warm, ah, this is the family that he has given up with, he really is a despicable bastard.

The enchanting man seemed to have woken up to some spell that he seemed to has been cast upon at the reaction of the person by his side, before walking with large steps toward them, his peach blossom grey eyes returning to normal, but there seemed to be a bit of hurried and stumble feeling at the way he walks, while his slender hands seemed to shake for a bit.

To Shao Cheng that has been observing his most loathful enemies in the past seemed to have seen something unbelievable which he was trying to make sense off, but soon, he was unable to think more about it deeply since the pain he felt as the lethal poison finally began to wrecked his entire body while feeling unimaginable pain despite his endurance.

Before long, the younger brother of Shao Cheng has moved in a fluster manner while standing at his side while the enchanting man stood before him, peach blossom grey eyes deeply gazing at his sorry and dying figure.

Liang Shi that has been standing silently, was unable to stop himself from moving forward, seemingly wanting to guard and protect the dying and defenseless Shao Cheng, the least he could do is give the man the respected end that he deserves, however when those dark and deep peach blossom grey eyes shoot his way, Liang Shi seemed to have caught of something unbelievable on the enchanting man expression in that split second, before finally taking a hesitated step back.

But he couldn't help but lament deeply if he guesses correctly at Ren Yuan emotions at that split moment that he has seen, Liang Shi suddenly felt how cruel and harsh the fate that heaven has given them.

These two people are both so talented and powerful, it was just too bad they seemed to have been fated to be against each other from the start.

Sigh

Shao Cheng suddenly heard a deep sigh coming from Ren Yuan, seemingly lonely and sad on his ears, which was a surprise, since he was sure that this man has surely hated him deep into his bones, so Shao Cheng was quite sure that he was hearing it wrong just now.

"Bring them here."

Suddenly the familiar sound reaches Shao Cheng ears causing him to raise his head up higher, while the enchanting man seemed to have taken a step back to the side before standing on his left side, like a faithful and loyal subordinate which was something that Shao Cheng has neglected to notice.

However, the people all around them watch with wide eyes, because the scene before them seemed to change in entirely different meaning, like the dying man with crimson bloodstained blooming on his snow-white brocade robe sitting in a chair, has become the most powerful person in the entire world while the enchanting man dressed in fiery crimson robe with silver snowflakes embroidered on it seemed to serve faithfully at the person sitting on the chair as he stood beside him.

"Insolent! We are the Emperor, we shouldn't be treated this way! We want your life!"

"Ah! How dare you handle me like this! I am the Empress! I will make you all pay!"

Soon, the two familiar figures appeared on Shao Cheng's vision, the majestic and noble appearance has long been gone, only leaving the appearance of a pitiful and miserable person as their clothes and hair has turned messy along with dirt and dust over their beautiful faces.

However, when they saw his figure, their eyes that has been flashing in panic couldn't help but light up as hope seemed to emerge within them, before trying to frantically scramble toward his direction.

"B-Brother Cheng We no, I was wrong. B-Brother Cheng Please save me!"

"R-right Big Brother Cheng, I am wrong! It's my fault! Please save Little Ya, Big Brother!"

These always been powerful and majestic couples seemed to be unable to understand their current situation and what fate they will be facing later on.

Huh so they are all wrong? It's their fault? And please save them?

Right now, he was dying because of what they have done, and unable to even save himself anymore.

So how could a dying person capable to save them? Even if he could, Shao Cheng will never do it, he really felt a bit tired now, after all, he has been working really hard these past few years after determining to make his 'supposed' younger brother become the Emperor.

Shao Cheng just silently lowered his sapphire eyes, pain and regret swelling up inside him since he really did follow and protected the wrong people in this life, the suddenly chaotic emotions causing him to cough up blood once again.

"Blocked their mouth!"

Soon silent followed before slender and warm hands seemed to pat his back soothingly causing Shao Cheng to slowly raise his head, sapphire eyes filled with confusion while covering his mouth but the nonstop blood leaking in the corner of his pale thin lip doesn't stop one bit.

Peace blossom grey eyes seemed to become turbulent, his pink lip opening to say words but none seemed to leave out from it before finally deeming it to just remain silent for a while, but after a few seconds, he was finally able to speak up after thinking deeply.

"Rest in peace, I will avenge your death."

However, there wasn't any reaction from the dying beautiful man causing another word to be let out after sapphire and peach blossom grey eyes gazed at each other.

"I will continue your legacy and make this Chang Empire powerful and prosperous once more..."

Then those cold sapphire eyes seemed to soften a bit after hearing those words, which has caused Ren Yuan heart to twist in regret, pain, and remorse as he watches the beautiful man dying.

Although he felt indignant at this stubborn man from all the trouble he causes him in the past, yet in the end, the respect he felt toward him is far greater and despite being angry, he seemed to be unable to give birth even a tiny bit of hatred toward him before an entirely different emotions seemed to have been born unexpectedly from all these years of being against each other.

Ren Yuan has thought that after today, he might be able to peacefully interact with this man, after all, he knew about how well Shao Cheng has treated the two people before them so he has thought to keep them alive and just let them live normally while being watched, but now, it was far too late as he watches the beautiful man slowly die right before him.

I know that you hated me but at least we should have become friends but why are you leaving so suddenly?

Our fighting is going to be over soon really your so unfair... and as always so annoying...

Shao Cheng silently stares as the enchanting beautiful man gazed at him with his deep peach blossom grey eyes which contain a complicated and unknown emotion brimming inside it.

Before speaking in a soft and gentle voice, seemingly sighing in regret while speaking in an arrogant manner that Shao Cheng has always disliked about him but now finding it pleasing to his ears since now that he thought about it, Ren Yuan is just showing his true self before him the entire time.

"Before didn't I mention about how blind you are? Look at you now! Since you are so ignorant and stupid, next time, just ignored the other people and follow me alright? Base on our intertwined deep fate of being enemies in this life, I am sure that we will meet again in our next life!"

Usually, Shao Cheng would have become angry from this man's words alone, but at this moment, his lip couldn't help but show a breathtakingly beautiful smile, rather than his usual fake smile, this time his expression is true and came from his heart causing the usually overbearing man to show a dumbfounded expression seemingly stunned at what he was seeing.

Feeling comfortable at leaving that expression on this usually bothersome man, Shao Cheng sapphire eyes slowly close, before murmuring his last words of acceptance.

That man is right, so...

"Alright, If I meet you again. I'll follow you this time."

With the last sentence spoken while losing his consciousness, there seemed to be a soft brush touching his thin lip, before his entire vision became blank.
