CW: ...I suppose death? He isn’t really dead, but he does kinda look like it. He's just buried under snow and suffering due to that! (Scroll further down for QiJiu!!)
Nan Feng and Fu Yao had stalled Xie Lian after all. Shen Yuan just barely had time to curl protectively around Xie Lian before the thick, icy wave of snow surged relentlessly and swallowed them whole, separating them from Hua Cheng. The force knocked Shen Yuan everywhere, and he tumbled along with the coursing snow. Although he somehow managed to keep hold of Xie Lian to his chest, there was just too much snow and the force was too powerful. Shen Yuan and Xie Lian were buried again and again, suffocating over and over each time their heads went under.
In the end, Shen Yuan couldn’t hang on. With a final shout of “Hua Cheng!” he was devoured by the icy snow current.
Hopefully Hua Cheng would still be able to find Xie Lian after Shen Yuan froze to death.

And yes, YQY is supposed to be pregnant, meaning that YES SJ is grabbing at the bump and very pleased by how far the scummies have dragged our favorite sect leader.
