Chapter 622 The Pain of Longing



"Where are you going?" The door had already opened by then. Even though a long time had passed, Yan Xuehen still felt her cheeks burning. What had she been thinking just now?

Looking at the shy Yan Xuehen in front of him, Zu An couldn't help but show a hint of admiration in his eyes. The feeling of the ice fairy falling to the mortal world was so fascinating.

"I'm going to the Sea Clan to find out if they have any information about the Divine Dragon Elixir of Immortality..." Zu'an gave her a general overview of the Elixir of Immortality.

Yan Xuehen listened with amazement: "There really is such a miraculous medicine in the world, then Chu Yan can also be saved?"

Zu An's expression darkened: "Chu Yan's situation is rather special. I'm afraid I'll need to find the fragments of the Creation Jade Disc first."

"The Jade Disc of Creation?" Yan Xuehen was taken aback. She considered herself a learned and talented person, but neither the elixir of immortality nor the Jade Disc of Creation that the other party mentioned were things she had never heard of before.

Zuan was worried about attracting some unknown entities, so he didn't dare to go into too much detail. He just gave a general introduction that the Creation Jade Disc was a supreme treasure in the world that could travel through time and space.

Yan Xuehen's expression also turned serious: "I will not tell anyone else about this. You should also be careful. Once the news of such a treasure is leaked, it could easily cause a bloodbath and be a threat to you as well."

Zuan held her hand: "You're different from everyone else, what do I have to hide from you?"

Yan Xuehen instinctively wanted to pull her hand back, but upon hearing his gentle words, her heart warmed, and she was so touched that she couldn't bear to pull her hand back.

"Then be careful. The sea tribe is always mysterious, and there are many legends of powerful beings there. I need to rest for a while after my injury heals. After I recover, I will travel the world to help find the whereabouts of the Creation Jade Disc."

She didn't hold a grudge because the other party went to save Qiu Honglei first. After all, Chu Yan's current state was too special, and that so-called Jade Disc of Creation was also illusory. It could only depend on fate. Maybe the other party would find out the whereabouts of the Jade Disc of Creation when they went to the Sea Clan.

Zuan hummed in agreement: "I'm leaving."

Seeing the lingering affection on his face, Yan Xuehen was also quite reluctant to part. The two had just reunited, and they couldn't even stay together for a day before having to separate. Overwhelmed with emotion, she took the initiative to throw herself into his arms and hug him tightly.

Zu An was somewhat surprised. Yan Xuehen was usually aloof and reserved. Except when she was extremely passionate in bed, she would take the initiative to hold his waist. Otherwise, she rarely took the initiative like this.

The two embraced tightly, and words seemed inadequate as they savored their last moments together.

The most heart-wrenching sorrow is that of parting.

In the end, Zu'an left. Watching his figure disappear into the night sky, Yan Xuehen's eyes unconsciously became moist.

She reached up and touched the tear stains on her cheek, momentarily lost in thought. Why didn't she feel the same kind of madness she had before, despite her intense emotional fluctuations?

...

Zuan flew through the night sky, now faster than the Wind and Fire Wheels, but to conserve his energy, he still rode the Wind and Fire Wheels eastward toward the sea.

Although the landmass of this world is much larger than that of the previous Earth, the ocean is even more extensive, with many areas still unexplored by humans. The eastern ocean is the home of the sea creatures.

On the way, he took out a video camera and tried to contact Shang Liuyu.

The other party is a mermaid princess, who holds a revered position among the sea creatures. If she were to act as a middleman, many things would be much easier to handle.

Unfortunately, the water-like ripples on the AV mirror spread out but did not display any image; it just kept spinning in circles.

Zuan, who was now also skilled in weapon crafting, immediately realized that the problem wasn't that he couldn't contact the other party, but rather that there was a problem with the communication between the audio-visual mirrors.

It's likely that the constant invasions by extraterrestrial demons during this period, along with their attempts to break through the world's barrier, and the powerful being summoned during the last Heavenly Ritual Dance, have affected some of the laws of this world, causing communication problems between the audio-visual mirrors.

Just like some solar storms, earthquakes, or tsunamis in the past, which caused changes in the Earth's magnetic field and affected global communications, this world is probably facing a similar problem now.

It's just unknown how long it will take to return to normal; it could take anywhere from ten days to half a month, or even decades or longer.

Helpless, Zuan put the audio-visual mirror into his pocket and took out the communication jade slip he had made earlier. Sure enough, it was unusable as well.

He thought for a moment, then clicked on Yun Jianyue's profile picture, and soon a bunch of unread messages appeared on it.

So much had happened during this time that he didn't even have a chance to check the communication jade slips—of course, it was also related to the unreliability of the communication jade slips he made; many messages couldn't be received in time, and the arrival time was random.

“Azu, I have exhausted the intelligence network of the Holy Church’s branches around the world, but unfortunately I still haven’t found any trace of Red Tear.”

"Do you think she might do something rash? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have done that to you behind her back!"

Even through the jade slip, Zu'an could feel the other person's sadness and grief at that time.

The following text was clearly posted a few days later:

"No, I raised Honglei myself. I know her personality best. She would never do something so weak."

"Haha, we received news from one of our branch headquarters in the Northwest that they seemed to have seen someone similar to Red Tear passing through their territory. I knew Red Tear couldn't be that weak."

"Hmph, I was wrong last time. This isn't just my fault. You bear more responsibility. You seduced me!"
