Time passes quietly and a day goes by quietly.
The place where Yun Che stayed was peaceful and quiet, and no one came to disturb him. Yun Che just quietly held Xiao Lingxi for a whole day. His injuries and lost strength also recovered completely during this day at a speed that completely surpassed common sense, and he did not feel weak at all due to any serious injuries or excessive losses.
Xiao Lingxi in his arms also calmed down completely. Under the silent nourishment of his profound energy, her complexion became rosy, and her internal injuries, which were not too serious to begin with, also healed almost completely. At this moment, she suddenly coughed lightly, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she opened her eyes little by little.
Yun Che immediately noticed her slight movement, and he immediately opened his eyes and looked at her.
The hazy vision became clear. The sight here was a little dim, but Yun Che's face was still clearly reflected... Her eyes trembled, and the whole person stood there in a daze.
Everything that happened in the past few days was like a series of chaotic and overlapping dreams, making it impossible for her to distinguish when she was seeing a dream and when she was seeing reality.
She and her father were taken to the Burning Heaven Sect, which was once only a legend... She saw the little Che she had been thinking about day and night... She saw Xiao Che rushing into the Burning Heaven Sect alone, causing chaos in the extremely powerful Burning Heaven Sect... She jumped off the high mountain wall, but felt herself falling into his arms. Before her consciousness faded, she finally saw him...
All these are as illusory as a dream.
She didn't know whether her next dream would be a nightmare or a sweet dream.
When she opened her eyes, she was first met with darkness, but soon, she saw Yun Che's worried and happy eyes, felt his body temperature, and the smell that made her nostalgic, all of which were things that dreams could not give her. Everything before she fell into a coma quickly emerged in her mind, and her tears suddenly burst out. She huddled into his arms, holding her tightly with both hands, crying bitterly, and in her cries, she called out in tears: "Xiao Che... Xiao Che... Xiao Che..."
Her tears shone with crystal light in the dim cave, just like pearls in the dark night. Yun Che caught her tears one by one in his hands, as if he wanted to treasure the most precious rain and dew in the world.
The moment she embraced Yun Che again, she once again knew very clearly that she could never leave him again in this life. Fifteen years of inseparable, she never knew what it would mean to be separated from him. But in these three years, she understood thoroughly... Her life, her soul, had long been firmly tied to him. Without him by her side, she felt like a body without a soul, and every day, she thought about everything about him.
“Aunt…” Yun Che hugged her tightly with his backhand, his eyes slightly moist. He said softly, “It’s all because of me that you and Grandpa have suffered so much injustice and pain… Everything will be fine. I will never let you and Grandpa suffer any injustice again…”
“Wuwuwuwu…” Xiao Lingxi just cried. Three years ago, she was only a fifteen-year-old child. Now, at the age of eighteen, she still cried like a child...
——————————————
“Three years ago, after I left you and Grandpa, I went to pay my respects at my father’s grave. Then, I changed my last name to my biological father’s. From then on, wherever I went, I called myself Yun Che. Then, I left Floating Cloud City… Not long after leaving Floating Cloud City, I met a strange person. For some reason, she became my master… Her identity and existence are very special. She never allowed me to mention her to anyone, so I can’t tell you about her situation…”
"She helped me repair my profound veins, taught me how to cultivate profound laws, endowed me with all kinds of powerful profound skills, and saved my life many times... Later, I followed my grandfather's wishes and came to New Moon City..."
Xiao Lingxi leaned against Yun Che's chest, her small hands on his chest, and listened to his story quietly, her body unwilling to separate from him even for a moment. Yun Che's story was slow and long, he told her about the ups and downs of the past three years bit by bit... Before she knew it, the bright moon was hanging high outside the cave, and occasionally the night breeze blew into the hot cave, bringing a wisp of natural coolness.
To Xiao Lingxi, who had never been out of Floating Cloud City before, Yun Che's experiences were like a myth. Although Yun Che had described them in a subtle way, they still caused her to cry out in surprise or shock.
Thinking back to everything she had seen in Burning Heaven Sect, Xiao Lingxi could not help but believe that he, who was a crippled Xuanmai three years ago and was called a waste by the whole city, was now a super figure who was capable of forcing the lowest-level sect of Blue Wind into a desperate situation. Because the man in front of her was her Xiao Che, his appearance, eyes, smell, and aura... all belonged to him. Even if she mistook everyone in the world, she would never mistook him.
"I knew that my little Che would be blessed by heaven. There would be a day when he would soar to the sky and everyone would look up to him. I knew it..." Xiao Lingxi whispered, crying with joy. At the same time, a trace of fear flashed through her heart, but this fear immediately dissipated completely... Although he had soared to the sky and became a figure who looked down on the world, although he had reached a height that she could not look up to, although the gap between them was like a chasm, but so what? He who was once ridiculed as a waste by everyone was her most precious little Che. Now he who could look down on the world was still her little Che... The little Che who could come thousands of miles for her and risk his life to fight his way into the top sect of Cangfeng!
She believed that no matter how high he reached, there would never be any distance between them... Even if there really was a distance, she would be willing to grit her teeth and try her best to cross and chase him, even if she was just a moth flying into a flame.
Yun Che set up a stove and cooked delicious rabbit soup. The wafting aroma of meat was undoubtedly an unbearable torture for the two hungry people. In this "torture", Yun Che began to listen to Xiao Lingxi's story about her past three years... In these three years, she lived a very simple life, almost the same day for three years... practicing martial arts, practicing swordsmanship, daydreaming, missing...
Before he knew it, the bright moon had reached the zenith, and the time had reached midnight. The rabbit soup was finally ready. Yun Che filled a half-full bowl, blew it carefully to cool it, and brought it to Xiao Lingxi, but he did not hand it to her. Instead, he said as a matter of course, "Aunt, I'll feed you."
Under Yun Che's treatment, Xiao Lingxi had recovered to her normal state. Although she had been lying on Yun Che, she had no problem drinking soup or climbing mountains. Yun Che, however, looked as careful as if he were taking care of a seriously ill patient. Xiao Lingxi burst out laughing and fell softly on Yun Che, half-closed her eyes, and gently opened her lips.
A spoonful of broth was brought to Xiao Lingxi's lips, flowing into her mouth along her soft lips, and then swallowed into her body. Slowly, a warm current dissipated in her body, warming her body and heartstrings... In those fifteen years, feeding each other was a very common thing for them, but today, it warmed Xiao Lingxi to the depths of her soul. Because it made Xiao Lingxi know more firmly that he was still her Xiao Che, and he had never changed.
In the calm and warm atmosphere, a bowl of broth was quickly finished. Yun Che was about to get a second bowl, but just as he turned sideways, his movements suddenly froze, and his brows slightly raised.
His change in expression made Xiao Lingxi suddenly nervous. She hugged his arm and asked in panic, “Xiao Che, what’s wrong?”
“Shh…” Yun Che raised his index finger and gently made a gesture to silence the crowd.
Soon, outside the cave, two footsteps were heard getting closer and closer, and the sound of talking became clearer.
"...They actually asked us to sneak into Canghuo City in the middle of the night. Alas, we have dominated the Canghuo area for so many years, but this is the first time we have to do such a frustrating thing."
“There’s nothing we can do about it. After all, Yun Che’s strength is too terrifying. He’s just like a monster! If it weren’t for the timely appearance of the Grand Master and the Grand Elder, the Burning Heaven Sect would have been completely destroyed, and we would have been cremated along with the Burning Heaven Sect.”
“I heard that the Grand Master guessed that Yun Che might be the heir of the Holy Land, otherwise he wouldn’t be so powerful… Huh! Do you think it’s really possible that Yun Che is hiding in Cang Huo City?”
“Not sure. But Yun Che was seriously injured, and his profound strength was greatly depleted, so he must need a lot of supplies. And within a thousand miles, only Cang Huo City has the most comprehensive supplies. The supplies from other small places are just a drop in the bucket for his level of strength. He should be very likely hiding there... As long as his hiding place is determined, the Grand Master will personally dispatch him. His injuries and strength have not healed yet, so he can’t even think of escaping from the Grand Master’s hands.”
The footsteps of the two people were getting closer and closer. Their profound energy was also very strong. One was at the fifth level of the Earth Profound Realm, and the other was at the sixth level of the Earth Profound Realm, which was equal to Yun Che. In the Burning Heaven Sect, they should also be hall masters or instructors. Their complaints also allowed Yun Che to roughly understand the purpose of their passing by here.
The strength of the two people's profound energy caused Yun Che's brows to twitch slightly. He turned his head and gave Xiao Lingxi a relaxed smile: "Don't worry, they are just two little mice who were unlucky enough to get here. Look at me taking them in."
After saying this, Yun Che’s body shook, and he leaped out of the cave entrance, landing directly in front of the two people, scaring the two people who were chatting freely.
“Who!!” The two of them shouted coldly at the same time. When they saw Yun Che’s face clearly, they were all stunned… They never dreamed that they would meet Yun Che here.
“You guys came at the right time.” Yun Che sneered and said something that the two of them couldn’t understand at all.
"you……"
Before the two of them could utter a complete sentence, their eyes suddenly blurred and a tremendous force hit their chests hard.
BANG!!
The two men were smashed away like straw. The man on the right was killed on the spot, but the man at the sixth level of the Earth Profound Realm was still breathing. His upper body was trembling, and his eyes were wide open as he stared at Yun Che who was approaching him. His eyes were full of despair.
Yun Che stretched out his arm, and the profound energy was released, instantly piercing into the man’s mind… Immediately, the memories of this Lord of Burning Heaven poured into Yun Che’s mind at an extremely fast speed.
