Chapter 365 Long time no see
The next day.
Jiang Yunxi was awakened by the sound of talking outside. After hearing the familiar voice, she quickly lifted the quilt and got out of bed. When she went out, she saw Taoist Qingxu and others.
"Master, senior brother, senior sister." Jiang Yunxi was a little surprised. They came back safely, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that they would encounter danger in Nanman.
Miaoyin strode towards her and gave her a bear hug. "Junior sister, I heard that you succeeded in extending your life. That's great!"
Woo woo woo——
When they arrived in Nanman, they did not find any way to prolong her life. Thinking that she only had until New Year's Eve, they had to hurry back to the capital of Tenglong Kingdom.
I’m afraid that something might happen and I won’t be able to see her for the last time.
Who would have thought that when they arrived at Prince Han's Mansion and learned about her life extension, they were so excited that they almost cried.
"We won't know whether the life extension is successful until after New Year's Eve." Jiang Yunxi shrugged. After all, she was the first one to sign a life and death contract to extend her life.
"It will definitely work. We didn't find a way to prolong our lives when we went to Nanman." Miaoyin said with guilt in her tone.
"You haven't come back for a long time, and I was worried that something might have happened to you. Now that you're back safely, it's better than anything else." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile. Fortunately, they returned safely, and they can spend this New Year's Eve together again.
Taoist Qingxu stepped forward, his eyes narrowed as he said, "What's there to worry about? Although we are not the most powerful, we are brave enough to run fast. Saving our lives is the most important thing."
Miaoyin: “…”
Qingyang: “…”
Master, is it really okay for you to say this?
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly. "Master, keep this attitude. Tell me about your life in Nanman so that I can understand Nanman better."
Taoist Qingxu nodded and planned to tell her in detail about the southern barbarians they had seen.
Although they wanted to know more about her, they had heard a lot from Zhan Beiyuan. They didn't expect that she had so many secrets hidden in her, which opened their eyes.
Zhan Beiyuan and others were also listening nearby.
Taoist Qingxu, Qingyang and Miaoyin told all the big and small things that happened after they went to Nanman, from the big one that Nanman seemed to have civil strife to the small one that someone's cow disappeared inexplicably.
After listening to this, Jiang Yunxi had a general understanding of Nanman. She knew that one day in the future, she would definitely go to Nanman, and she also felt that a piece of her body would be there.
"When do you plan to look for the other four pieces of the body?" asked Taoist Qingxu.
"After New Year's Eve, I want to go to Kunlun Sect first, then go to Jiangzhou, and then look for the body parts." Jiang Yunxi said his plan. He must go to Kunlun Sect.
Jiangzhou has to go too.
Although the arson case there has been solved, there are still many innocent souls of the people still under the pool of the Thirteen Temples. It is time for them to come out and be reincarnated.
I guess they didn't expect that the arsonist was Yu Shuanghua.
"Let's help look for him, disciple. You must have been an immortal in your first life, right?" Taoist Qingxu's eyes lit up. Having an immortal disciple was enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.
Jiang Yunxi smiled, "Not necessarily, maybe even more powerful."
Taoist Qingxu: "..."
Disciple, I haven’t seen you for a while, and you really make the master look at me with new eyes.
In the next two days, Prince Han's Mansion was particularly lively. Taoist Qingxu and Zhenren Lingyin instantly chatted with each other, and both of them were worried about their disciples.
On December 29th, heavy snow fell in the capital.
Jiang Yunxi returned to Fanghuayuan holding the umbrella that Jinxiu left for her. As soon as she entered the house, she felt that there was someone in the inner room. When she went in, she found Zhan Beiyuan sitting on her bed.
"Why are you here?"
Zhan Beiyuan looked at her with deep eyes, then lay down, "I'm here to help you prolong your life. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and I think we need to practice dual cultivation again."
Jiang Yunxi's face was filled with black lines. She strode to the bedside and said, "Hurry up and get up and go back to your own courtyard. If you can successfully extend your life tomorrow, we can reconcile your yin and yang."
"What if this balancing of yin and yang is all that's needed to successfully prolong our lives?" Zhan Beiyuan still lay there motionless.
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
What he said seemed to make a little sense.
Zhan Beiyuan saw that she didn't say anything, so he knew that he had persuaded her. He pulled her into his arms and hugged her, saying seriously, "I'll listen to you this time."
Jiang Yunxi looked at the other man's upright and serious gentleman face and asked, "Why do I feel like you have a bad mind?"
Zhan Beiyuan pursed his lips and said, "I have never been that kind of person. I have always been upright and honest."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
That night, Zhan Beiyuan stayed in Jiang Yunxi's house.
At first, Jiang Yunxi thought he really listened to her, but later on, she felt that he was just misleading. It was true that men's words could deceive people.
The next day.
Zhan Beiyuan had woken up a long time ago. He stared at the woman's sleeping face, but she seemed uncomfortable with her brows tightly furrowed. He reached out and gently smoothed her brows.
Today is New Year's Eve, the last day of her curse.
He couldn't help but think of the day more than three months ago when she showed up at the palace with the child. At that time, he thought she had other purposes, but he didn't expect it to be true.
It’s just that this purpose is different from what he thought.
If he had known that she only had three months to live and that she was bringing her child to be cared for by the care of others, he would definitely have settled them down immediately.
Thinking about all the things that happened in these short three months, it was obvious that they had not been together for a long time, but it felt like they had been together for three years.
Zhan Beiyuan's fingertips slid across the woman's eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips and chin one by one. He could only touch her so wantonly when she was asleep, or when she was aroused.
He had never imagined that one day he would desire a woman so much that he would even want to kowtow to the gods and pray that she would survive. He had never placed his hopes on worshiping gods before.
Next second.
He withdrew his fingers, and seeing that she was still asleep, he quietly lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
Zi Yan and Qing Wu had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw him come out, they bowed to him.
"Don't disturb her." Zhan Beiyuan said and left.
Jiang Yunxi had many dreams. She dreamed that in every life except the first one, she would walk alone to the end.
Every New Year’s Eve, she would buy a lot of food she wanted to eat, slowly savor the food, and wait for midnight to come.
I guess after she disappears, people living nearby will be very surprised, and maybe someone will call the police or report it to the authorities, but in the end her disappearance will become a mystery.
No one knew where she went or whether she was dead or alive because there was no body.
Sudden.
A pair of dark, oppressive eyes appeared in her dream, "Long time no see."
Jiang Yunxi just thought that eye was too ugly, and waved his right hand, "Get out!"
Power surges.
The big black eyes disappeared in an instant.
Jiang Yunxi suddenly opened her eyes and thought about what had just happened. She was a little dazed for a moment, not knowing whether it was a dream or reality. She and Zhan Beiyuan had both seen that big black eye.
