Originally, everything had been going exactly as what Fu Yichen had planned. The swordsman in black had grabbed the Female Lead and stepped back under the stimulation of Leng Qianshangâs unreasonable words. Fu Yichen was waiting on the side for the opportunity to fly out at any time while watching the play.
âDonât come here. Iâll kill her if you take even a step closer!â The swordsman in black suddenly grabbed the Female Leadâs neck. After stepping back again and again, he reached the edge of the cliff behind him. He definitely didnât want to fall, but Leng Qianshang didnât want to compromise at all.
âRidiculous!â Leng Qianshang snorted coldly.
Truthfully, what Su Zhan really wished for was for this person to drag and jump down together with the Female Lead. Then he can go and find the Female Lead through another way. Itâs better than falling directly down with them.
Fu Yichen couldnât help but touch his nose. This kind of hostage situation would definitely be sprayed to death by the modern netizens. Maybe Leng Qianshang would be dubbed as a murderer or an indirect murderer. But what made Fu Yichen speechless was that at this time, it seemed like a life or death situation for the Female Lead, yet she still had the mind to act like a nympho.

[The favorability of the Female Lead towards the Male Lead +3]
âŚâŚ
From when Leng Qianshang arrived at the scene till now, the favorability of the Female Lead towards the Male Lead had increased from a negative number to a 15 which was very impressive. However, it was completely understandable for the favorability to rise that fast. Because in the original text, this was the first time the Female Lead saw Leng Qianshang without a disguise. So she was both âshockedâ and âamazedâ. The Female Lead started liking the Male Lead from this cliff scene. So Fu Yichen had to stop it.
âAh~â At this moment, the swordsman in black suddenly stepped on air and his whole body immediately leaned back. If it was only just him, his martial arts wouldnât have caused him to fall. But at this time, he was also holding the Female Lead in one hand. When he fell back, the Female Lead also fell down with him uncontrollably. So it successfully shattered the possibility of him climbing back up completely.
âNo!â The Female Leadâs eyes widened and she screamed. How could her life just end like this? She had just transmigrated.
In the blink of an eye, Leng Qianshang had already flown out. Fu Yichen was a little surprised at his speed. But before he could think about it, he too hurriedly flew over.
In fact, Su Zhan had long been prepared to fly over. Although his task was to follow the plot, his preparations were only wishful thinking. He thought that it would be possible to rescue the Female Lead if he flew over two to three seconds earlier. Then he would think of many other ways to make the Female Lead fall in love with him. In this way, they didnât need to fall off the cliff. It would be the best of both worlds. After all, even with the authorâs unreasonable setting for them to not die or be disabled when they fall, the fall would still be pretty steep and the pain they would experience will be real.
So at the critical moment, Su Zhan grabbed the Female Leadâs wrist. But still he underestimated the power of the plot and the weight of the swordsman in black. With the weight of an adult man and the Female Lead, Su Zhan was dragged down without having the chance to hold his footing. While cursing inwardly, Su Zhan reflexively grabbed onto the rocks. At this moment, he suddenly felt his hand being grabbed tightly. Su Zhan turned his head in disbelief and saw Xuanyuan Canye who he hadnât seen for many days.
Fu Yichen had also underestimated the power of the plot and the speed of a body falling rapidly. Fu Yichen used all of his strength to grab onto a convex stone on the cliff which stopped them from falling. But the huge pulling force that followed soon after almost took off his entire arm. Fu Yichenâs face twisted in pain in an instant.
According to his original plan to fly out right after Leng Qianshang, he was supposed to be able to hold onto Leng Qianshang at the critical moment. After all, he had repeatedly rehearsed it before. But he didnât expect Leng Qianshangâs speed to be faster and that made him a few tenths of a second late. So Fu Yichen failed to hold him steady at the most critical moment. With the weight of the other men and also the Female Protagonist, Fu Yichen had no chance of pulling all three of them up.
So now it had become Fu Yichenâs turn to use the strength of his one arm and bear the weight of four people including himself. If it werenât a Mary Sue novel, Fu Yichen felt that his arm would have probably been ripped off.
The worst thing was that the two people hanging at the bottom were frightened by the bottomless abyss below them and had begun to struggle uncontrollably.
âHelp! Help! I donât want to die!â The swordsman in black kicked his feet in the air, his voice shrill with fright.
âLet go of me!â The Female Lead panicked while kicking the head of the person below her, âYou bastard! Let go of this young lady!â
Currently, the other person had grabbed one of her feet as they fell. In fact, according to the posture of the two of them before they fell off the cliff, the most reasonable and easiest place to hold should be the Female Leadâs dress or skirt. But if that was the case⌠that picture would change into something a bit⌠different. Fu Yichen felt that it would be an image that no one would want to see.
The two mentally handicapped people struggled and the range of swinging from side to side became larger and larger. Fu Yichenâs veins had already turned blue due to the overload in weight and it felt as if his arm was about to break off.
Not to mention Fu Yichen, even Su Zhan couldnât wait to let go of the two mentally retarded people he was holding onto and let them fall to their deaths. Although he knew in his heart that they wouldnât die even if they fell. It was inevitable that they would be afraid as they were in this sort of situation.
âShut up!â
âBoth of you just shut up for me!â
Su Zhan and Fu Yichen roared almost in unison. But it didnât work at all. The two idiots obviously had already lost their minds under the high tension. The more they struggled the further they swung, so they struggled more. It was a vicious cycle.
Fu Yichen held back his curses and could only say to Leng Qianshang in a deep voice, âGrab on tight.â But even if he said that, his fingers that were gripping on the rock had already reached their limit, well the limit set in a Mary Sue novel to be exact. Otherwise, not to mention a normal personâs hand, even a hand made of diamonds wouldnât bear the weight of so many people. Let alone people that were swinging in the air.
At this moment, Fu Yichen heard a voice coming from above his head, âZi-Guniang, hold on!â As soon as the voice fell, Fu Yichen felt his hand being grabbed.
Looking up in a conditioned reflex, he saw that it was the Third Male, Mingyue. This was originally within Fu Yichenâs calculations. After he had rushed over to catch Leng Qianshang, the masters he had brought with him would stop those that were trying to attack them. At this time, the Third Male who likes the Female Lead wouldnât stand by and would definitely come to help. Sure enough, although it was a little later than what Fu Yichen expected.
But Fu Yichen wouldâve never expected that when Mingyue, who was struggling to pull him up, saw his face, his own face would suddenly change greatly.
âItâs you!â Fu Yichen felt that the upward pull suddenly stopped and he saw Mingyueâs eyes widened in disbelief. At the same time he said, âXuan-yuan-can-ye!â
âShoot!â Fu Yichen said in his heart, wailing on the inside. He had forgotten about Mingyueâs dog blood life story. The Third Male had a deep blood feud with Xuanyuan Canye and his mother. He had forgotten about it.
Misfortune doesnât come only once. At this moment, Fu Yichenâs fingers were completely numb to the point of unconsciousness. Obviously he had reached the limit and he could no longer support the additional weight. But what made the situation even more speechless was that at this moment, probably because of the plot, the stone that he was holding onto suddenly broke off. The next second, Fu Yichenâs whole body felt weightless and even Mingyue didnât have time to let go of his hand.
Not to mention saving the Male and Female Leads, even the Third Male was dragged down with them together. At this time, Fu Yichen could be said to have experienced the feeling of flying in the air. All the thoughts and plans he previously had were of no match against the logic of a Mary Sue novel.
But what made Fu Yichen even more stunned was that the moment when they all collectively fell, he could see the Female Lead and the swordsman in black being thrown out together. He was free-falling. So why was the Female Lead flying off in a parabolic motion?
Fu Yichen was sure that his hand was still firmly grasping onto Leng Qianshangâs wrist. Which meant that it was Leng Qianshang who didnât grasp onto them when the Female Leadâs swing reached the peak. So the Female Lead and the swordsman were thrown out.
Before he could even think about it. Fu Yichen didnât know what was going on in his mind. The first reaction he made was to use his bodyâs internal strength and forcefully toss out Mingyue who was holding onto his other hand. Targeting the area in the direction where the Female Lead was flying towards.
What followed was the increasingly rapid falling of their bodies. It felt like a knife was going through their bodies, especially their faces. Their bodies fell uncontrollably and it made the whole person dizzy. Not to mention opening their mouths to say anything, their brains had already become dull and messy.
Therefore, those classic scenes on TV where the Male and Female Leads change positions in mid-air, hug, kiss and say I love you, or the flashbacks of a lifetime of joys and sorrows, did not exist.
The only thing that could be felt in the chaos was the tightening of two hands that were holding onto each other. Fu Yichen even felt that even if his body were to be torn apart, the hands that were clasping onto his own would still not let go.
In the end, Fu Yichen felt a sharp pain before falling into darkness. It was also a piercing pain that made Fu Yichen wake up from the darkness.
The moment he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a dark sky. As if the sky was covered with a layer of fog. The sun could not be seen, revealing a sense of depression.
Fu Yichen slowly woke up, following him was the feeling of piercing pain all over his body. Especially the feeling in the fingers of his left hand. Fu Yichen raised his hand and looked at it. It could be said to be a terribly mangled and bloody scene.
He gave out a self-depreciating twitch from the corner of his mouth. All of his thoughts and preparations didnât stop the cliff-falling plot. Not to mention being unable to stop it. He himself was also brought in. After his calculations had all gone to waste, Fu Yichen had no words left to say.
Fortunately, disappointment didnât stay in Fu Yichenâs mind for much longer. After all, the plot wasnât over yet. No one knows the ending and he wasnât someone to give up so easily.
Fu Yichen was lying on the ground and he found the surrounding area to be very humid. The surrounding air was damp and dull. Other than that, it was deathly silent without even the slightest sound from a bird or an insect.
At this moment, a sudden thought came into Fu Yichenâs mind. What had happened to Leng Qianshang?
He immediately sat up straight. But in the next second, a sharp pain coming from his right arm made him take a deep breath. It was at this moment that Fu Yichen realised that there was a person lying on his right.
Fu Yichen was stunned for a moment. The long silver hair that was scattered all over the floor, the hand that was being held onto tightly. Wasnât this Leng Qianshang?
Fu Yichen saw that his eyes were tightly closed and his eyebrows were clenched. The pain on his face seemed to be indescribable. Because of the extreme humidity, his hair looked a little damp and his face was slightly pale. Even his hands felt a little cold.
But soon Fu Yichen noticed his abnormal looking legs that were placed on a slightly decayed tree stump.
Fu Yichen was startled and hurriedly lifted the other personâs robe to take a look. Sure enough, even though the dazzling bloodstain had already dried up slightly, there was still a shocking wound on the knee of his right leg. If it wasnât dealt with within time, without the slightest bit of exaggeration, he was afraid that this leg would have to be amputated.
But just when Fu Yichen was about to get up and tend to Leng Qianshangâs wounds, he found that he couldnât get rid of Leng Qianshangâs hand at all. He wasnât awake, yet his hand was still tightly grasping onto his.
Fu Yichenâs heart couldnât help but move. There were some inexplicable feelings in his heart which were very subtle. But one thing that made him more curious was the fact that with this strength, how could he let go of the Female Lead?
