Chapter 894: The Threads That Bind Us Together
Ling Wen's gentle voice echoed from within the communication stone: "Your Highness, you don't need to be so polite with us. We are all your followers, and whatever you decide, we will unconditionally support you."
Upon hearing Ling's words, Ye Fei sighed softly, "I'm sorry, I'm an incompetent ruler. When the demon realm needed me the most, I chose to leave and left you with a bunch of troublesome things... I'm really sorry."
"Your Highness, please don't say such things. It is our honor to share your burden," Ling said with a smile. "Besides, Your Highness is not really leaving. You still have your own mission to complete and to surpass many more limits. When you return to the Demon Realm, that will be the day you are truly reborn from the ashes."
"Until that day comes, we will wait for you in the demon realm, whether it's one year, two years, or three years..."

Ye Fei chatted with Ling for a while longer, and then turned off the communication stone amidst Ling's reluctance to part.
She took a deep breath and gazed at the distant scenery ahead.
Ling is right, she still has her own mission to complete—
No matter how long it takes, she is determined to advance to the Spirit Saint level as soon as possible and become stronger.
Only in this way can she protect everything that belongs to her.
Her hands clenched into fists within her sleeves, Ye Fei turned her gaze to a certain spot, a fleeting dimness passing through her eyes.
He should have taken the Nine-Turn Ice Jade Pill by now, and the fire poison should have been eliminated.
If finding the medicinal materials to refine the Nine-Turn Ice Jade Pill was the last thread connecting her and him.
After he had completely absorbed the Nine-Turn Ice Jade Pill, the thread broke.
From that moment on, she and he had no further connection whatsoever...
The thought of this caused Ye Fei to experience waves of unbearable pain in her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.
"East?"
Hua Ling's clear voice suddenly rang in her ears. Ye Fei came back to her senses and looked up. She saw that Hua Ling and Rong Xi had stopped arguing and were staring at her intently.
Ye Fei: "..."
Ye Fei: "What is it?"
Hua Ling examined her eyes closely; the dimness that had been there moments before had vanished without a trace.
It was as if nothing had happened.
"Is something on your mind?" Hua Ling asked.
Ye Fei answered decisively, "No."
Rongxi scoffed, "Little liar."
Ye Fei glanced at Rong Xi, who was playing with the fluffy scarf. A wicked smile suddenly appeared on Rong Xi's beautifully curved lips: "It's okay if you don't say it now. We can talk about it when we get to know each other better."
Ye Fei remained silent, closing her eyes and ignoring him.
Ning Shui Feng flew in the air for a day, and finally arrived at Yunxi Kingdom, where Fan Yue City was located, at dusk on the second day.
Calculating the time, today happens to be the last day of the two-week period I agreed upon with Shun.
Yunxi Kingdom is a small country covered in ice and snow, with temperatures near freezing year-round, making it a truly frigid snow country.
Perhaps because the weather was too cold, there weren't many pedestrians on the road.
After searching for a long time, Ye Fei couldn't find anyone to ask for directions, so she turned her attention to Rong Xi.
Rongxi touched her nose somewhat awkwardly: "Don't look at me like that. I only know that Fanyue City is within the territory of Yunxi Kingdom, but I don't know exactly where Fanyue City is within Yunxi Kingdom..."
Ye Fei withdrew her gaze; seeing that it was getting dark, she didn't want to miss the appointed time.
