Chapter 2708: 2708
Exquisite took Han Sen with her as she teleported a few more times, but she was unable to shake off the pursuit of the God Spirit Storm . No matter where they teleported to, a God Spirit Storm would be on them in an instant . The God Spirit Storm was a very persistent stalker .
“Leave me here and go on . ” Han Sen could see that Exquisite’s face was drenched in sweat, and the energy flows in her body weren’t circulating correctly . He knew she had used Galaxy Teleport too many times . Her body had a limit, and she was almost tapped out .
But Exquisite ignored what Han Sen told her . She thought for a minute, then said, “I have found a way . We will teleport to Bao Lian . Bao Lian won’t let himself be trapped in the same God Spirit Storm he placed on you . So, if we followed where he went, we might be able to find a way to erase the power he put on you . ”
“That is useless . We won’t be able to find him now . ” Han Sen shook his head with a tired smile .
Exquisite teleported away again, and her eyes slowly changed color . Her eyes darted here and there, but she couldn’t latch onto an image of Bao Lian .
“Stop searching . He must have left the god area . He wouldn’t allow himself to go down with us,” Han Sen said . He had already figured as much, and this simply confirmed his suspicions .
“There must be a way . ” Exquisite’s face looked different from how it usually did, and that was because she was out of options . She could not control a place like the god area .
“Seriously . You should go . The God Spirit Storm is coming after me, and I’m the one that challenged Bao Lian to a deathmatch . This is my responsibility,” Han Sen said .
Exquisite shook her head . “You are my silkworm . I’m not going to let you die . ”
“I thought that to the Very High, silkworms are just instruments to you . If I was to die, you would just find another one,” Han Sen said, meeting Exquisite’s eyes .
Exquisite shivered . It was just as Han Sen said; silkworms were little more than tools used in the progression and ascension of the Very High . And Han Sen wasn’t the only person who thought that . The Very High who studied the Very High Sense thought that silkworms were nothing more than toys of the universe . They looked at most people and creatures of different races like that .
Right now, Exquisite was caught in an inner conflict . According to what she had been taught by her people, her course of action was clear . She should simply leave and select another silkworm .
But for some reason, Exquisite didn’t want to do this . She knew it wasn’t helping, but she kept teleporting Han Sen away, again and again .
She didn’t go to Li Keer, either . Doing so would have been pointless . It would just force Li Keer to flee with them, and things would continue to go downhill .
“He is such a powerful silkworm . I will never find another one like one . If I’m to succeed in this life, I need someone like him . I must do what I can to save him . ” Exquisite said all this to herself . Every time she teleported, she looked for a way in which she might be able to help Han Sen .
But no matter what she tried, there didn’t seem to be a way out of this predicament . There was nothing she could do to escape . Although the Very High were considered incredibly powerful, only a deified could sort this out . Exquisite was far too weak right now .
Exquisite’s aura became more and more disrupted, and her eyes were deeply bloodshot . Her face was colored a deep scarlet . Han Sen knew she had reached the end of her rope . She looked exhausted .

Han Sen felt so touched by her dedication, but he was also in a hurry . For reasons that he didn’t dare think about while she was nearby, he needed Exquisite to leave him alone for a moment .
But Exquisite was too stubborn to leave him by himself . Her lifeforce was messed up, but she still used Galaxy Teleport to haul Han Sen around .
After using Galaxy Teleport again, Exquisite fell into a coughing fit . Blood speckled her lips . She had used too much energy .
“I’m really grateful for your determination, but you should leave . I will find a way to survive,” Han Sen murmured, supporting Exquisite’s shaking body as she coughed .
Exquisite wiped the blood from her mouth . She looked at the sky and saw the black clouds and the thunder . Her face was expressionless as she said, “If I cannot even save my silkworm’s life, how can I unlock the full potential of Sky and Man Combine Together?”
When he heard her say that, Han Sen felt even more worried . Despite their dire situation, Exquisite was still refusing to leave .
As the God Spirit Storm formed again, Exquisite grabbed Han Sen and used God’s Wander to teleport away .
But this time, when they reappeared, Han Sen realized they weren’t far enough from the God Spirit Storm to reset the cycle . Exquisite had simply used up too much of her power, and she didn’t have enough juice left in her . Jumps like this wouldn’t take them far enough .

Exquisite noticed they were still under the same God Spirit Storm, and her face went grey . She tried to use more power to teleport again, but as soon as she moved, she coughed up even more blood .
Her body was too exhausted to use Galaxy Teleport any longer .
As Exquisite’s body shivered and shook, Han Sen felt sick . If Exquisite had left, he could have easily sorted out this situation . But Exquisite’s strong will was causing him more and more trouble .
Even so, Exquisite’s determination touched Han Sen deeply . After all, the whole reason Exquisite had stayed by his side was because of her desire to save him .
“How many people exist who would truly sacrifice themselves on behalf of another? The Very High are a very complicated race, but why do people claim they are heartless?” Han Sen thought to himself .
Exquisite sensed what Han Sen was thinking, and an unreadable expression passed over her face . She looked at the sky and the God Spirit Storm coming, but she couldn’t move away .
Exquisite suddenly turned to him . “Han Sen, I’m afraid we won’t be leaving here alive today . ”
“We aren’t going to die,” Han Sen said quietly . He used the small jade figure to stop the sync of his seven senses . Exquisite could no longer feel his mind and emotions .

Exquisite kept talking as if she hadn’t heard what Han Sen had said . “I used to think that my little sister’s choices were ridiculous . I thought that the Very High Sense was the pride of the Very High, the legacy of our race . Little Sister wasn’t proud of our legacy . She always found ways to get around practicing the Very High Sense, too . She even got lazy, and I could never understand why . ”
Before Han Sen could respond, Exquisite carried on by saying, “But now I seem to understand; having a heart that connects to the entire universe feels rather empty . The Very High forget about love . This teaching has been with our race for as long as we can remember . But despite all that, each one of us is just another creature of the universe . We aren’t machines . Sometimes, having a little heart can be quite attractive . ”
“You don’t have to practice the Very High Sense,” Han Sen said .
Exquisite shook her head . “I have no choice . Your fate within the Very High is determined for you when you are born . Li Keer didn’t have a choice . I didn’t have a choice . I thought Liyu Zhen was sad, considering that he would never have the chance to practice the Very High Sense . But now I envy him and the others . If I had the choice, I would prefer to be like them . I don’t want to practice the Very High Sense . I want to be like a normal member of the Very High . ”
“But that doesn’t matter anymore,” Exquisite said coldly, watching the God Spirit Storm sweep toward them . She sounded very calm . She almost sounded relieved . Either way, she didn’t fear death .
