Chu Wanwan's words were like a gentle breeze, dispelling the doubts and fears in the hearts of the immortal cultivators. They all looked at Si Mingye, their eyes filled with remorse.
For the past ten years, Si Mingye has been fighting alongside them in the outer realms.
He was incredibly powerful; in battle, he saved many people and killed countless high-level demons.
How could they suspect he was a demon?
Although his divine power was strangely mixed with demonic energy, Si Mingye himself had no demonic nature whatsoever.
It's really going too far for them to suspect he's a demon just because his divine power is mixed with demonic energy.
"I'm sorry!" Li Fei put away his weapon and bowed apologetically.
Si Mingye shook his head slightly and walked directly to Chu Wanwan's side, asking, "How are you feeling?"
Chu Wanwan smiled slightly, "I'm fine, I just need some time to recover. Thanks to your timely arrival, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."
"In the future, don't arrange for me to be too far away from you! If you are in danger, I won't be able to save you in time!"
Si Mingye looked at Chu Wanwan's pale face with heartache and said.
"Okay! From now on, I'll keep you by my side; you'll be my bodyguard!" Chu Wanwan said with a smile, looking at Si Mingye's handsome face.
"Bodyguard? What's that?"
Si Mingye was puzzled.
"You'll be my personal bodyguard from now on! You're now at the Initial God Realm, which is practically a High God. With you here, I'll definitely be very safe!"
Chu Wanwan explained the meaning of "bodyguard" with a smile, a sly glint in her eyes. She gently patted Si Mingye's shoulder, as if confirming the identity of this "personal bodyguard."
Upon hearing this, Si Mingye's lips curled into a doting smile. He gently shook his head, but his eyes were full of indulgence and tenderness.
"Okay, I promise you. From now on, I will be your personal bodyguard, protecting you anytime and anywhere, and ensuring your safety."
"good!"
Chu Wanwan looked at the seal as she spoke. Through the seal, she could clearly see the interior of the Demon Realm, where ashes covered the ground—the ashes of the demons who had been wiped out.
"It seems the threat from the Demon Realm has been temporarily averted," Chu Wanwan said softly, a hint of relief in her voice.
Si Mingye stood beside her, his gaze also fixed on the Demon Realm. His eyes were deep, as if he were deep in thought.
"Yes, the Demon Emperor is not dead, but he is severely injured and will not be able to cause trouble for a while. Moreover, Xuanwu will soon repair the seal on the Demon Realm, at which time the passage between the Demon Realm and the Immortal Realm will be completely closed. We can then go and search for the Heavenly Stone with peace of mind!"
Si Mingye said in a calm and composed voice, which gave people a sense of reassurance.
"Hey! You two, don't forget about me. Send me to the Milky Way to repair my spiritual roots! I'm so bored staying in Wanwan's space all day!" Tiannvba suddenly said.
"Don't worry! Once things are settled here, I'll personally send you to Tianhe to recuperate. However, we'll have to wait until the crisis here is completely eliminated!" Chu Wanwan said with a smile as she looked at Tiannvba.
"Okay! I'll wait for you!"
As they were talking, a powerful aura rapidly approached Chu Wanwan and the others from afar. Chu Wanwan looked over and saw it was a Xuanwu beast dressed in black robes.
As soon as the Xuanwu Beast landed, it immediately began repairing the seal. Golden runes were cast into the seal, shimmering with dazzling light, as if containing boundless power.
These runes intertwined and merged in the air, forming a complex and mysterious pattern that slowly merged into the seal.
As the runes were incorporated, the seal began to exude an ancient and solemn aura, seemingly responding to the power of the Xuanwu Beast, gradually becoming more solid and stable.
As the restoration work on the Xuanwu Beast continued, ripples began to appear in the space surrounding the seal, as if the boundary between the two worlds was being redrawn. The scene inside the Demon Realm gradually became blurred, and only the outline of the ruins after the battle could be vaguely seen.
Knowing that the repairs would take several more days, Chu Wanwan gave some instructions to the Xuanwu Beast and then reassigned the immortal cultivators to guard other weak points in the seal, in case the Demon Realm made any further moves.
In the coming days, the demons will relentlessly attack the seal even without a leader, because it will be even more difficult for them to escape once the seal is completely repaired.
However, they have no chance of success.
The two weakest points of the seal have been reinforced, making the chance of breaking through from other places virtually zero. However, just to be on the safe side, Chu Wanwan still sent people to guard the seal.
She and Si Mingye went to the Abyss of Chaos to guard it.
About three months later, after the Xuanwu Beast repaired the seal, it returned to the Chaos Abyss, where the chaotic tornadoes rose again. Chu Wanwan bid farewell to the Xuanwu Beast and, along with Si Mingye and the other immortal cultivators, returned directly to the Immortal Realm.
Chu Wanwan gave the Thunder God's Whip to her mother, and bought a top-tier immortal artifact for each of her three brothers and sister-in-law, Si Nantian. Finally, she personally escorted the Heavenly Maiden Ba to the Milky Way in the Ninth Heaven.
After arranging everything in the Immortal Realm, he set off with Si Mingye to find the Heavenly Stone.
Before leaving, Si Nantian called Si Mingye over and whispered to him for a long time. No one knows what they said, but when Si Mingye returned, his ears were red.
Chu Wanwan looked at Si Mingye's bright red ears and chuckled, "Si Mingye, what did Uncle Si say to you? Why are you so shy? Is Uncle Si going to introduce you to someone?"
Chu Wanwan's words carried a hint of teasing, causing Si Mingye's cheeks to flush slightly again.
"It's not what you think, Wanwan. My father just... just told me to protect you well and not let you get hurt in any way."
Si Mingye explained somewhat awkwardly, avoiding Chu Wanwan's gaze.
Seeing this, Chu Wanwan stopped teasing him.
"Let's go!" Chu Wanwan said, summoning Feng Que. She and Si Mingye sat on Feng Que's back and flew towards the void.
The Xuanwu Beast had said that the Heavenly Stone was located in the eastern part of the Immortal Realm. However, they didn't know its exact location, so they could only keep flying east until Tong Gu Jin sensed the location of the Heavenly Stone.
After an unknown amount of time, ripples suddenly appeared on the mirror's surface, which seemed to connect the past and present. A little girl's sweet, childlike voice came from within the mirror.
“Master, I can sense the aura of the Heavenly Stone. It’s near this void; there should be a small world here.”
"Here?" Chu Wanwan looked at the void before her, frowning as she asked, "Can you pinpoint the exact location of that small world?"
"I sense it's right in front of Master. Master can see it by tearing through the void!" the ancient and modern mirror spirit said in a cute, childlike voice.
Upon hearing this, Chu Wanwan's eyes lit up immediately.
She stretched out her palm, gathering powerful immortal energy, and struck the void with it. The void was easily torn apart like cloth, and an opening shimmering with a ghostly blue light gradually appeared.
"Let's go!" Chu Wanwan said softly, leaping into the dark blue cave entrance first. Si Mingye followed closely behind, and the two disappeared into the void together.
