Douluo Continent: Transmigrated into Tang San's Younger Sister and Became a God with Two Martia

Chapter 246 The Companionship of Shi Ye

Tang Nian bit her lower lip tightly, seemingly trying her best to suppress the tears that might burst forth at any moment.

Tang Nian and Tang San, these two siblings, have almost identical personalities. They are both competitive and unwilling to show weakness.

Even when they suffer a lot of grievances and hardships, they always choose to endure them silently, gritting their teeth and swallowing them down, never letting outsiders see the slightest hint of their suffering.

However, when Tang Nian's gaze fell upon Shi Ye's figure, the grievances that had been suppressed deep within her heart for so long erupted like a torrent, becoming impossible to contain.

Without hesitation, Tang Nian lifted her foot and ran towards Shi Ye with lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, she leaped up like a light bird and threw herself into Shi Ye's broad and warm embrace.

Faced with this sudden situation, Shi Ye was slightly taken aback at first, but his body reacted subconsciously, steadily reaching out his hands to catch Tang Nian.

He looked down at the person in his arms, his eyes filled with heartache.

Shi Ye gently embraced Tang Nian, carefully tightening his arms, as if wanting to transfer all the warmth from his body to her.

Tang Nian, like a small boat adrift at sea, found a safe harbor. She buried her head tightly in Shi Ye's broad chest, quietly listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the whole world consisted of only the two of them.

Finally, the tears that Tang Nian had been forcibly holding back finally broke free, and like pearls from a broken string, one after another rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Those crystal-clear tears, like pearls with a broken string, slowly slid down her fair, delicate cheeks.

Where the tears fell, they left clear tear tracks, like patterns carved on white jade, poignant and moving.

In the blink of an eye, these tears quickly gathered into a small stream, soaking the clothes on Shi Ye's chest.

The area stained with tears gradually deepened in color, like a dark flower blooming in the night, exuding a heartbreaking aura.

Faced with the person crying so heartbrokenly before him, Shi Ye remained silent.

Complex emotions were surging in his deep, pool-like eyes at that moment.

However, he did not offer words of comfort, but instead silently extended his broad and warm palm and gently patted Tang Nian's head again and again.

Time passed slowly, and after a long while, Tang Nian finally stopped crying, though she would occasionally let out a few sobs.

Her voice trembled slightly with grievance and fear, sounding heartbreaking. Her eyes were already red and swollen from crying, like two ripe peaches, and her small nose twitched slightly from time to time from sobbing, like an injured little rabbit.

"Just now... I almost died." Tang Nian managed to squeeze out these words with great difficulty, her voice filled with the terror and lingering fear of surviving a close call.

Upon hearing these words, an indescribable pain surged from Shi Ye's heart and quickly spread throughout his body.

For a moment, Shi Ye felt as if something was blocking her throat, and even breathing became difficult.

After a long while, he managed to find his voice, but it was already a little hoarse. "I know, Niannian, it's all my fault. I was late. I won't do it again, Niannian."

Tang Nian felt a sense of comfort after hearing Shi Ye's words.

But she still stubbornly shook her head, burying her head even more tightly in Shi Ye's arms, and said in a muffled voice, "It's not your fault, it's that I'm not strong enough. If I were stronger, maybe this wouldn't have happened today."

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye unconsciously tightened his arms around Tang Nian, as if he wanted to meld her into his own body.

He lowered his head and gently kissed the top of Tang Nian's head, speaking softly, "Nian Nian, don't say that. I won't do it again."

Although Shi Ye's voice was very soft and gentle, it seemed to contain endless power, like an eternal vow.

"Mmm," Tang Nian responded softly, hugging Shi Ye's waist tightly with both hands, feeling the warmth and sense of security emanating from him.

At that moment, it felt as if the whole world consisted of only the two of them.

Tang Nian didn't know how much time had passed before she slowly and gently withdrew from Shi Ye's warm embrace.

In that instant, a shy glint flashed in her usually bright and lively eyes, as fleeting as a shooting star in the night sky.

At the same time, a faint blush crept onto her fair cheeks, as if someone had gently applied a thin layer of rouge with the softest touch, making Tang Nian look even more beautiful and charming, inspiring feelings of tenderness and affection.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Shi Ye, who had been gazing at Tang Nian, felt a surge of urge to get closer to her again when he saw her so shy and charming.

However, his remaining rationality told him that now was not the time, after all, Tang Nian was still young, and any overly intimate behavior would be inappropriate.

So, despite being filled with longing, Shi Ye ultimately managed to suppress the impulse.

However, his gaze towards Tang Nian remained gentle and tender, as if it could melt away all things in the world.

"You haven't completely finished the first test of Yama, have you? What else do you need to do next? I'll go with you," Shi Ye said softly, his tone firm yet full of care.

Hearing Shi Ye's words, Tang Nian looked up at him with slight hesitation and asked, "But... you didn't pass the test of Yama, can you really stay with me? Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye couldn't help but chuckle. He reached out and gently ruffled Tang Nian's hair, saying, "My little Tang Nian, how could you think that way? Yama is a god who is high and mighty. Is there anything in this world that he doesn't know? The fact that I was able to find this place and enter it smoothly already says everything. This naturally means that I have his tacit approval. Moreover, even if I am by your side, I will definitely not interfere too much with your assessment, so you can rest assured."

After listening to Shi Ye's explanation, Tang Nian frowned and thought about it seriously for a long time.

Finally, Tang Nian nodded, indicating her agreement to let Shi Ye accompany her to complete the remaining assessment tasks.

The first test for Yama God, Tang Nian, required him to complete two tasks: one was to kill the Netherworld Serpent King, and the other was to gain the approval of the Netherworld Serpent Clan.
