What people in the dome witnessed was, that suddenly, a big thing from above the ceiling crashed down into visitor's seat. The force was too great that it caused the seats to broke. People started to scream because they just found out that the planetarium's lamp had fell into a person.

The huge lamp fell onto Sui, the glass pieces shattered everywhere, piercing his body, including his eyes. But none of them touched Xuyun, who just sat inches away from him. Xuyun lifted Sui's head, still shocked, he couldn't grasp what had happened. No, this should not have happened yet. It was too early! Did his time got reduced??

Xuyun got panic, but, sensing that Sui still had a pulse, he calmed down a bit. Sui hadn't die yet, but his body was covered in blood. His breathes unsteady. Xuyun quickly spoke to him, "Sui, can you hear me? You'll be alright. I'll hold you."

He hold Sui's trembling hand. Not long after, Sui grabbed his hand back.

.

.

"Se-Senior," he said in a low voice.

"Yes," Xuyun quickly answered.

"I'm sorry… to have gotten you involved in this…"

.

.

Before Xuyun could respond, a crowd of people in medical cloak, surrounded them. They wiped blood on Sui's body, put a gas mask on him, then brought him into the ambulance car. Xuyun immediately followed them to the hospital. At the hospital, they put Sui into Emergency Care Unit and immediately performed an operation on him.

Xuyun waited them outside of the operation room, a lot of emotions mixed in his heart like crazy. He thought about one cruel scenario.

.

.

They could never save him, could they?

.

.

They would try their best to save Sui, to operate on him, kept his heart warm and stimulate it to keep beating, but Sui would still die on 6 PM. He would still pass away in the designated time. 'Gods' only moved forward the time of the accident.

Xuyun had already hated 'Gods' and 'Death', but this time, he loathe them so much his entire body crawled with hate. What was 'their' intention? 'They' wanted to watch the weak humans trying to force a dying man's body to function again, 'they' wanted to watch Sui suffered longer from pain before he finally leaves the damaged body. 'They' wanted to teach Xuyun a lesson, to warn him not to challenge them again.

A string of words appeared in Xuyun's memory again, 'I'm sorry to have gotten you involved.'

Xuyun hated 'Gods' and 'Death', but what he abhor most was himself. Sui was being tortured on his death bed, but what was he doing here??

.

.

Xuyun got out of the emergency ward, out of the hospital, he ran and ran until he arrived at the practice field.

He took out Shinenema, looked at it for quite awhile, before lifted it, slashed it into his own neck. The sword cut deep wound on his neck. Blood splurted from that wound, it flowed so much the floor was turning red.

Xuyun fell into the floor from extreme dizziness. His lips and fingernails turned blue, his face pale. Not long after, he could feel his consciousness faded.

How comfy. He wanted to do this long ago.

.

If this really worked, he thought, he would go look for Sui immediately, then ran away, somewhere 'Gods' or 'Death' couldn't touch.

.

.

But, he woke up instead, at the same place where he slit his neck.
