While Shu Lan was repairing her soul in the Book God Space, more than half a month had passed in the outside world.

The day after Shu Lan's accident, Qin An had already found a suitable piece of millennium-old cold jade in the extremely cold land. In order to obtain this piece of millennium-old cold jade, he did not hesitate to fight a demon beast with the cultivation level of the early stage of Mahayana, and finally killed the demon beast with his sword after being covered in wounds.

Because of the special location of the Thousand-Year Cold Jade, Qin An suffered a great deal when he went to retrieve it. The chilling cold seeped into Qin An's body in wisps, and if it weren't for the protection of the Wood Spirit Flame bestowed upon him by his master, he might have been frozen into an ice sculpture.

After obtaining the Millennium Cold Jade, Qin An brought it to the Star River Sect overnight.

Then, Qin An refused the help of others and personally carved this large piece of thousand-year-old cold jade into a cold jade bed.

Finally, Qin An carefully placed his master brother on the cold jade bed.

Fortunately, besides nourishing the soul, the Jade Bed also greatly benefits the cultivator's body. During the time Shu Lan's soul was separated from his body, the Jade Bed nourished his entire body, accelerating the healing of his injuries.

During the more than half a month that Shu Lan was in a coma, Qin An would take time every day to watch over her. Because the divine sense of the extraterrestrial demon ruler had previously descended upon this continent, some extraterrestrial demons with lower cultivation levels subsequently came to this continent through spatial rifts.

Qin An then went with the members of the Immortal Sect every day to kill those extraterrestrial demons.

Because he was constantly thinking about his master, Qin An's mood had been low and fiery. When he saw the extraterrestrial demons who had injured his master, his anger suddenly erupted.

Every time he killed extraterrestrial demons, Qin An was always at the forefront. His methods of killing these demons were extremely crazy and cruel, venting all his anger on them.

Those from the immortal sects who knew the inside story remained silent, letting him cruelly kill these extraterrestrial demons. After all, the extraterrestrial demons were also enemies of this continent, and they would not sympathize with their enemies.

Every day after killing the extraterrestrial demons, Qin An would go back and wash himself clean, change his clothes, and then go to his master's brother's room.

He would stay by his master's bedside every night, afraid of missing the time when his master woke up.

Sometimes, when he couldn't control his emotions, he would gently climb onto his master's jade bed, just like countless times before, and gently wrap his arms around his master's waist. In this way, his heart would become very peaceful.

Venerable Lieyang had witnessed Qin An's actions and was somewhat moved by what he had done for his junior brother. Although he had initially harbored resentment towards Qin An, seeing his deep affection, Venerable Lieyang dispelled his hostility and accepted him.

There are only three days left until the month agreed upon with the extraterrestrial demons.

On this day, Shu Lan's soul returned to this continent from the Book God Space.

A faint light flashed on the surface of the Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram, and Shu Lan's soul shot out from within the diagram, directly piercing into Shu Lan's brow.

At the same time, the flame in Shu Lan's natal soul lamp in the rear hall of the Star River Sect suddenly burst into flames. The commotion of Shu Lan's natal soul lamp attracted the attention of Venerable Lieyang, who quickly came to the rear hall. When he saw the blazing natal soul lamp, he couldn't help but burst into tears of excitement: "Good! That's great! Junior brother, you're alright!" Afterwards, Venerable Lieyang rushed towards Tinglan Peak.

Shu Lan frowned slightly, his eyelashes fluttered, and he gently moved his fingers.

At that moment, Qin An was taking a nap by Shu Lan's bedside, his nerves constantly on edge. Shu Lan's slightest movement startled Qin An, instantly waking him up.

Qin An saw his master's eyelashes trembling, a sign that he was about to wake up, and his heart couldn't help but feel excited.

Sure enough, the next moment, Shu Lan opened her eyes.

When Qin An saw that his master brother had actually opened his eyes, he burst into tears of joy. Tears streamed uncontrollably down his cheeks. "That's wonderful! That's wonderful! Master brother, you've finally woken up!" Qin An's voice was choked with emotion.

Qin An had no idea how long he had been waiting for this moment; how much he wanted his master to wake up! Now that his master had finally woken up, "I'm so happy!"

When Shu Lan woke up, she saw Qin An with tears streaming down his face, and her somewhat confused mind immediately cleared up.

He saw Qin An's tears fall drop by drop, and his heart softened, yet also felt a pang of sadness. Shu Lan raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Qin An's eyes: "Good boy! Don't cry! Your teacher has woken up, hasn't he? It's alright now, don't cry."

"Master, it's all my fault. I caused you to suffer such a serious injury." Qin An choked up, tears streaming down his face.

Seeing Qin An so heartbroken, Shu Lan felt a pang of sympathy. "It's not your fault. It's my fault for not protecting myself and making Xiao An worry."

Shu Lan placed Qin An's head on her shoulder, gently patting his back to soothe his emotions and let him cry freely, venting his inner unease.

It took Qin An a long time to calm down.

Qin An slowly lifted his head from Shu Lan's shoulder, looking at his master brother's vivid appearance and voice. Every frown and smile touched his heartstrings, and he felt as if he were in a dream.

To make sure it wasn't an illusion, Qin An lowered his head and kissed his master brother's lips fiercely.

Qin An was now truly determined, relentlessly conquering his master's lips. He was genuinely terrified, fearing that his beautiful dream would shatter at any moment.

Faced with Qin An's fierce kiss, Shu Lan chose to indulge him, silently enduring Qin An's storm-like kisses. Shu Lan understood Qin An's feelings; he knew that Qin An was acting this way because he was worried that everything before him was an illusion, and only by truly experiencing it could he be sure that what he was seeing was real.

Qin An kissed her passionately, and Shu Lan's breath was gradually stolen by him. In an instant, Shu Lan's face turned extremely red.

"Cough cough!" Just as Qin An and Shu Lan were kissing passionately, a cough suddenly rang out in the room.

Shu Lan quickly pushed Qin An away, panting heavily. His face was flushed, and his eyes were glazed; in Qin An's eyes, he looked incredibly delicious.

Shu Lan turned her gaze to the doorway, feeling a little awkward for a moment. "Senior... Senior Brother, you've arrived."
