The Journey of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 1149 - 614: Reunion

She suddenly realized. No wonder the seawater looked and smelled strange, it turned out its scent was similar to amniotic fluid!

His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had passed through the Sea Eye and was stepping on the vast and boundless sea surface in the void.

The Sea Eye still kept its gigantic mouth wide open, with the seawater rushing down like a waterfall. At this moment, a crescent moon hung at the edge of the sky, emitting a cold and dim light, coating the ocean surface, the Sea Eye, and the two figures below with a layer of silver light.

She clearly saw the sorrow flashing across Changtian’s face under the moon: "After your accident, I thought you had died, but after leaving the Central Capital, I discovered your body was still soft and not yet stiff. Later, after repeated inspections, I found that there was still a tiny force inside your body protecting you, maintaining the last strand of life. So I placed your body in the Sea of Life, letting it help you recover your Primordial Energy."

Ning Xiaoxian knew that her last memory only reached the moment when he wielded his sword to cut the Dragon Binding Rope. At that time, she was determined to die and hadn’t considered his feelings. Now seeing him again, she realized the deep pain her departure would have caused him, and the thought pricked her heart.

I’m sorry, she said secretly in her heart.

Changtian lowered his eyes and happened to see her guilty expression, unable to help but smile slightly.

Only she could make his world vibrant and colorful. As long as she could wake up, he was willing to pay any price.

Now Changtian used the same Divine Skills she knew, which was Shrinking Land into Inches. However, every time she used it, it consumed a large amount of Divine Power, and the distance was only about ten meters. Unlike him, who could casually take a step, spanning hundreds of meters? The surrounding scenery all stretched into a line and swiftly left behind.

Her mood today had been tumultuous, and her Divine Soul was greatly exhausted. The scenery looked too hypnotic, so before long, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep again in his embrace.

She slept soundly, and after Changtian returned to the Hidden Stream, Yixian Inn was in complete chaos.

Lord Divine Monarch has returned with the hostess!

This scene was witnessed by many people on the spot, and suddenly the entire inner region of the Hidden Stream was like a once calm pond disturbed by stones, with the news spreading rapidly like ripples, one circle after another.

When Changtian lived alone, he loved tranquility, so although Yixian Inn’s layout was exquisite, it was always cold and quiet. Now that she had returned and her body was weak, the servants hurriedly lit charcoal fires and incense, warming up the entire room. Soon after, the Foreign Affairs Hall got the news that the former Hall Master had returned, and they sent various items in a steady stream, quickly redecorating the entire Yixian Inn, making it look brand new.

Changtian carried her to the bed, changed her clothes, pulled the quilt over her, lightly kissed her forehead, and then turned to leave. He still had a lot of miscellaneous tasks tangled up, and he had to hurry and finish them while she was sound asleep, such as the banquet he had forcibly left just now.

As he stepped out of Yixian Inn, he said softly, "Triple the guards, not even mosquitoes can enter." Times were different now, the people wanting her life were as numerous as carp crossing the river, so he placed his True Body on her wrist for real-time protection.

Someone promptly responded, "Yes!"

#####

Ten hours later, Changtian stepped into her room again, seeing the joy flash in her eyes, followed by a hint of blame. A maid had already helped her sit up properly, with several soft pillows propped up behind her.

He glanced over the potions on the table, his sword-like eyebrows immediately furrowing: "Why hasn’t the Soul Nourishing Soup been fed to her yet?"

With a slight displeasure, the room’s temperature seemed to drop by several degrees. The maid attending her trembled in fear, hurriedly replied, "The maid tried to, but Lord Ning, she couldn’t swallow it."

Right, how had he overlooked her weak swallowing muscles, unable to swallow the potion? He restrained his anger, dismissed the attendants, casually picked up the medicine bowl, and spoke leisurely:

"In Bai Yujing, did you burn your Divine Soul?"

Ning Xiaoxian was startled, her eyes darting around, refusing to make eye contact with him. There was a killing aura in these words!

He reached out to pinch her chin, forcing her to look straight at him: "So, back then you refused to come over?"

His golden eyes seemed fierce and menacing. She hurriedly blinked twice. No, no, at that time she really had no strength left to crawl over.

She was just just shy of writing the words ’guilty conscience’ in her eyes. Changtian let out a scoff, took a big gulp of the medicine, and then passed it to her lips. The maid wasn’t wrong; she was immobile, and her swallowing muscles couldn’t function, making it impossible to swallow. Changtian pressed twice on her throat, and finally, she made a gurgling sound, swallowing it down.
