Li Suo didn't go far, still lingering within the Abyss Dragon Clan. Her gaze fell on one of the rooms, and a gentle smile appeared on her face.
At this moment, Shen Xi was sitting upright in the room, concentrating on establishing a connection with the Zhutian Ancestral Sword, trying to explore the mysteries hidden within this divine sword.
"Xi'er."
A gentle call, like a breeze blowing across the lake, broke Shen Xi's meditation.
This familiar voice, as if carrying the traces of time, instantly drew Shen Xi back to memories of the past, giving her a strange feeling of being in another world. Her eyes suddenly opened, a hint of surprise crossed her face, her lips slightly parted, and she couldn't help but whisper, "Master!"
Li Su's figure slowly descended into the room. The bright and mysterious power emanating from her body gently enveloped the entire room, giving people a feeling of warmth.
Li Suo's blue eyes gazed upon the now-grown Shen Xi, a flicker of relief in them and a flicker of surprise across her face. She had never imagined that after a million years, master and disciple would have the chance to meet again.
"It's really Master!" Shen Xi could no longer contain her inner joy, her eyes instantly turning red. In the Age of Gods and Demons, Li Suo had been one of the closest people in her life. Now, in this new era, she could actually see her Master again. Surprise and longing instantly intertwined, like a flood bursting through a dam, transforming into a silent longing.
“I never thought we could both survive that apocalyptic disaster. Perhaps this was fate’s deliberate arrangement, bringing us together again thanks to Yun Che’s appearance.” Li Suo’s face revealed a smile that came from the heart. She looked at Shen Xi, whose eyes were reddening, and a wave of pity welled up in her heart.
“Master, Xi’er misses you so much!” Shen Xi quickly stepped forward and tightly grasped Li Su’s hand, fearing that all this was just a dream and that Master would disappear if she let go.
For her, this was undoubtedly the most precious gift from God. In this world, there were not many people she cared about, and the appearance of Li Su gave her a solid support in her heart.
Li Suo, just like she had done back then, reached out and gently stroked Shen Xi's hair, her eyes filled with doting. "Master, you miss Xi'er too."
After a brief reminiscing, Shen Xi felt a surge of curiosity, and couldn't help but ask, "Master, when the Eternal Calamity Poison raged, not a single True God was spared. How did you manage to escape this calamity? I was lucky enough to become the new Ancestral Sword Spirit of the Heaven Slaying Sword, and that's why I escaped."
"My body certainly didn't survive that catastrophe and was buried forever in it. However, part of my soul hid in the Hongmeng Seal of Life and Death, which is how I managed to survive. It wasn't until I later met Yun Che, who carried the aura of the Ancestral God, that I quietly awakened him," Li Suo explained patiently.
“I never thought we would both regain our ‘freedom’ because of Yun Che. Back then, I sensed something different about him. Although I didn’t know exactly what it was, I knew his aura could expedite the release of the seal on me.” Shen Xi couldn’t help but sigh. After a million years, their fates were now so closely linked because of Yun Che.
Li Su hesitated for a moment, her heart tangled. Finally, she gathered her thoughts and mustered up the courage to ask, "Did you accept him and give him your essence just to break the seal?"
“…” Shen Xi paced slowly, recalling the past between her and Yun Che in the Forbidden Land of Samsara. Perhaps even she herself had never imagined that she would be so bold as to “seduce” such a talented young man.
"Yun Che carries the legacy of the Ancient Azure Dragon. This isn't just any legacy, but a complete gift, encompassing the Ancient Azure Dragon's dragon soul, dragon blood, and dragon god marrow. It can be said that Yun Che is like a humanoid Ancient Azure Dragon, and all of this originates from my Dragon Father. When I learned this, I understood that this was the husband my father had chosen for me."
"In fact, I had no intention of accepting Yun Che at the beginning. He had come to me because he was afflicted with the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Seal, but I rejected him without hesitation. However, fate often works in unexpected ways. He had once rescued a royal Wood Spirit from the Wood Spirit Clan. Coincidentally, the princess of that royal Wood Spirit clan was by my side at the time. Through all these coincidences, I ultimately chose to help him."
"While helping him dissolve the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Seal, I was surprised to discover that he had actually learned the Miracle of Life. Initially, you only hastily taught me the first half of the Miracle of Life. Due to the arrival of the apocalyptic catastrophe, I was unable to witness the second half. However, coincidentally, Yun Che mastered the second half of the Miracle of Life. Furthermore, his learning and comprehension were beyond imagination, far exceeding my expectations. At that time, a different idea had already begun to surface in my mind."
“But the most crucial reason that ultimately led me to decide to make him my man stems from my inner desire. I want to break the seal and see the world for myself.” Shen Xi spoke candidly to Li Suo, each word brimming with sincerity.
"Fate is indeed an indescribable wonder." Li Suo sighed with emotion, a serious look flashing in her eyes. "But, are you willing to become Yun Che's woman just for these reasons? Could it be that you have never truly fallen in love with him?"
Shen Xi's steps suddenly stopped. She didn't understand why her master suddenly asked such a question, but this question stirred up a huge uproar deep in her heart.
Initially, she had proactively "seduced" Yun Che for these very reasons. But after spending half a year with Yun Che, their relationship had long since transcended simple mutual exploitation. Shen Xi had to admit that Yun Che's presence had been deeply imprinted in her heart and soul, a mark that could never be erased.
