A smile appeared on Nangong Jiu's face.
"Mom, I'm fine. Look, I'm alive and well. Don't worry!"
"But……"
"I'm really fine. It was because my second brother, my closest relative, was in trouble that I felt the pain in my heart because of telepathy."
Xiang Ning brushed Nangong Jiu's sweat-soaked hair.
"I'm glad you're okay. You have to protect yourself. If anything happens to you, how will your mother live?"
Nangong Xunhuan took the little guy from Xiangning's arms and said, "My dear, does your heart still hurt now?"
"Daddy, it doesn't hurt anymore, don't worry!"
"Well, Daddy is not worried! My dear is still so young, but he has already recovered 60% of his cultivation and rescued his brother. He is Daddy's pride.
However, you can't be too hard-working in cultivation. Everything should be done step by step, understand?"
"knew!"
The father and daughter were very affectionate.
At this time, Nangong Xuan woke up slowly.
"Second brother!"
"Second brother!"
“Second brother!”
The whole family gathered around, and Nangong Xuan looked at each of his relatives one by one: "I'm not dead yet?"
"Well, Xiaojiu saved you!"
"No, we all saved you together." Nangong Jiu corrected.
No one noticed that Tiandao, who was standing behind, waved his hand at everyone, and an invisible spiritual power hit the whole family except Nangong Jiu.
Nangong Jiu lay down next to Nangong Xuan.
"Second brother, how could I let you die with Xiaojiu here? You are still so young and haven't married your second sister-in-law yet."
Nangong Xuan struggled to sit up, and Nangong Xuan quickly let him lean on him: "Second brother, how do you feel?"
"Very good! By the way, there was a very strange force that strangled my neck earlier."
Nangong Jiu took over the conversation: "We know, it was the high priest of the demon world who did it. Don't worry, when I recover my cultivation, I will go find him and avenge you."
Nangong Xuan reached out and rubbed Nangong Jiu's little head: "Xiaojiu is really amazing. He has recovered 60% of his cultivation at such a young age."
"Yes! Don't worry, second brother, I will practice hard and strive to recover to 80% of my cultivation level as soon as possible.
By then, I will be able to restore your damaged spiritual roots."
Nangong Xuan hugged the little guy in his arms.
After a long while, Tiandao said, "The second brother is still very weak and needs to rest. Let's go back early.
Little girl, be careful and be on guard against the high priest targeting you."
The family then waved goodbye.
"Second brother, when you go back, don't think about anything. Take good care of yourself. After a few days of recovery, I will be able to treat you."
Waving his little hands, Nangong Jiu thought to himself as he watched the group disappear from his sight.
A few days in heaven, a few years on earth, I think a few years should be enough, right?
Well, I have to try harder.
Taoist Qingchen stepped forward and picked up the little man: "Jiujun, let's rest today and go out for training tomorrow."
Nangong Jiu saw everyone's worried faces and nodded in agreement: "Alright, everyone has consumed too much spiritual energy today, it's better to rest for a day."
Wuwang took Nangong Jiu from Taoist Qingchen's arms, and several people surrounded him and returned to their residence.
The other side.
Tiandao and his family reached mid-air, and then he waved his hand to lift the restriction on everyone's memory.
Xiang Ning asked, "Why is the high priest so kind as to let Xiaojiu go?"
Tiandao shook his head: "It's not that he let the little girl go, but that he missed a step.
The reason the little girl is fine is probably because of the lost clothes, which belonged to the previous empress. The little girl now has a different body, so the evil magic has no effect on her. "
Nangong Xuan frowned.
"If the High Priest's men discovered that Second Brother and Xiaojiu were fine, and also thought of this, and went to Xiaojiu's mortal home to steal his clothes, the consequences would be disastrous."
Tiandao nodded: "This is exactly what I am worried about.
How about this, you guys take the people back and take care of them, while I go to the mortal world for a while. We can discuss other matters when I come back."
The whole family quickly expressed their gratitude.
cave.
After the group returned to the cave, they all meditated and adjusted their breathing. Nangong Jiu sat on the stone bench at the entrance of the cave and contacted his family members one by one to explain the situation.
Liu Hao and Nangong Yunxue finally felt relieved: "I'm glad you're okay! How's your second brother?"
"With everyone's help, I was able to rescue the person. This time it was really dangerous!
One day, I will make the bad guy, the high priest, pay him back."
"Well, then you should take a rest and don't get too tired."
Nangong Jiu then packed up and fell asleep directly. The pain in her chest and the depletion of her spiritual power made her feel very tired.
Taoist Qingchen saw this and stood guard silently by the side.
The Prince's Mansion in Xizhou City.
Today, Liu Hao and Nangong Yunxue experienced a lot of ups and downs in their hearts because they were worried about Nangong Jiu. They also felt a little tired. They returned to the room as soon as it got dark and were about to rest.
Sudden.
A golden light shone down, and Tian Dao appeared in the couple's room.
It was not the first time that the couple had seen Tiandao, so they were not very surprised and quickly bowed.
Tiandao raised his hands and lifted the two of them up, saying, "I have come here to tell you something concerning the little girl's safety."
Then he recounted in detail what had happened.
"For the little girl's safety, we must take precautions. For the time being, please store the little girl's clothes and belongings in a safe place.
As for the security of the mansion, I will give you a few bean soldiers."
Tiandao spread out his hands as he spoke, and scattered a few unknown beans in his palms onto the ground. The beans immediately turned into several majestic soldiers.
Nangong Yunxue was startled.
Tiandao continued, "When there's no danger, they're just a few beans. Only when danger strikes will they transform into soldiers. You don't have to worry about them. Just put them in a corner."
After saying that, he disappeared.
Now, the couple didn't even have time to rest. They called the servants and moved all the clothes and belongings in Nangong Jiu's room into the dark room in the room where the couple lived overnight.
Seeing the darkroom restored to its original state and impossible for anyone who didn't know about it to discover it, I finally felt relieved.
On the other side, Tiandao went to the general's mansion and the imperial palace one by one, gave instructions, and then returned to heaven with peace of mind and went to Nangong's mansion.
When they arrived, the family was in Nangong Xuan's bedroom, discussing countermeasures.
Nangong Ba shouted, "Or, we can just lie to everyone and call him Second Brother..."
Before he could finish his words, Nangong Xunhuan slapped him hard: "What kind of bad idea did you come up with?"
At this time, Tian Dao appeared.
“It’s no use lying to the world that the second child is dead, because the little girl can’t stay hidden forever.
It's not a good idea to seek revenge on the High Priest right now. You may not be his match, and going there might even cause more trouble."
"Then what should we do? The High Priest should soon get the news that my second brother has been rescued. If he resorts to any other tricks, we won't be able to defend ourselves."
"As far as the current situation is concerned, the little girl is the most dangerous."
Nangong Xuan looked worried.
"So what should we do? Should we just do nothing?"
