Chapter 706: Calm
When Jiang Lisheng woke up, he heard someone talking in the distance outside the hall.
She was familiar with both voices. Although they were very low, she could still tell that one was Wei Qinglan and the other was Xi Jili.
Xi Jili had not yet ascended the stage of communication with the gods. His injuries had not healed in such a short time, and his voice was somewhat weak. "The Demon Lord caused a catastrophe in the world, and the two worlds perished with you. Countless lives were implicated and turned to ashes. Now, even if the two worlds are revived, some people will never come back. Although the Lord has forgiven you, doesn't the Demon Lord feel guilty?"
Wei Qinglan's face was calm. "Does it matter to you whether I feel guilty or not?"
"It has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with Your Excellency." Xi Jili looked at him. This man was the Lord of the Demon Realm, but his aura was as pure as snow and as bright as the moon. There was not a single trace of demonic energy revealed. If someone who didn't know saw him, they would think he was from the Divine Realm. He taunted, "Did you know that the day Your Excellency returned to the Divine Realm, he told us that he wanted to end all ties with you and be completely clear?"
"So what?" Wei Qinglan knew better than anyone what she meant by leaving without saying a word at the Yushui River bank, and there was no need for anyone to tell him.
"If Qu Chiqiao hadn't seen that Your Majesty was pregnant, Your Majesty would have made up her mind to break up with you." Xi Jili stared at him, his sarcasm deepened, "Do you know what Your Majesty asked the first time she found out about the pregnancy? She asked, can I have an abortion? At that time, Your Majesty lost all her power, and Qu Chiqiao repeatedly shook her head and said no, fearing that it would harm her body, so Your Majesty gave up."
Wei Qinglan remained calm and indifferent, "So, you want to tell me that I have a chance to win her back because of this child?"
"Isn't it? Your Majesty is the most soft-hearted." Xi Jili sneered, "Otherwise, how would you have a chance?"
He stared at Wei Qinglan, "Or rather, you should thank Pei Tanyi. If he hadn't caused chaos and brought disaster to the human world, the Divine Realm would have closed the gate from that day on. In order to prevent you from knowing that she was pregnant, His Majesty would have kept the news secret and stayed indoors to cultivate herself. She wouldn't have rushed to find the source of power and been blocked by Pei Tanyi at Mount Nuji. You discovered her during the fierce battle and chased her to the Divine Realm."
Wei Qinglan suddenly smiled, "You also know that she is soft-hearted, but how come she hasn't fallen in love with you over the years?"
With just one sentence, Xi Jili froze with a pale face.
Wei Qinglan laughed again, her tone light, "The first moment she returned to the Divine Realm, she discovered that she was pregnant. Isn't this an opportunity given to me by God?"
He looked at Xi Jili with a smile on his face, without any aggression, "What should we do? God has made this marriage come to fruition, and your jealousy is useless."
Xi Jili pursed his lips.
Wei Qinglan was originally leaning lazily against the sacred tree. After a few words, he stood up straight, took two steps forward, and patted Xi Jili on the shoulder. "You are so seriously injured, but you don't take good care of yourself. Instead, you grit your teeth and come to me to annoy me. Junior Brother Xi, do you think you are too old? Are you too lucky to return to the divine realm? Do you want to die early due to your serious injuries? That would be such a pity. Don't you regret that you can't see our child being born?"
Xi Jili's face darkened, his whole body tensed up, and he was filled with anger.
"Why bother? You are so aggressive, do you want to hold on to it and not give up, or do you want me to give up?" Wei Qinglan put her hands on his shoulders, without using any force, but Xi Jili could not move. "Of course I won't give up. Sister Jiang asked me to return the bell string to her and Brother Wei to her, and of course I would agree. So, I advise you to give up. You can never get it, so why bother? It will only hurt others and yourself."
After saying this, he let go and headed towards the main temple.
Xi Jili turned around stiffly, looking at Wei Qinglan's back which seemed unaffected by anything, unable to utter a word.
A moment later, until Wei Qinglan returned to the main temple and was about to push the door of the main temple, he spoke hoarsely, and the voice reached his ears, "Ten thousand years ago, I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken the initiative and brought people to strangle you."
He said word by word, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wei, for your tolerance and for letting bygones be bygones."
Wei Qinglan paused, smiled, and replied, "I'm not forgiving, nor am I letting go of the past grudges. It's just that she protected you ten thousand years ago. Ten thousand years later, if you don't attack me, I have no reason to kill you. After all, all the grudges between the gods and demons ended ten thousand years ago."
After saying this, he no longer looked at Xi Jili, quietly pushed open the door of the main temple, and walked in.
As soon as he stepped into the inner hall, he saw Jiang Lisheng sitting on the bed, hugging a soft blanket, looking at him.
He paused.
But in a moment, he naturally walked to the bed and asked her in a low voice: "Did I wake you up?"
"Not really. I've slept enough." Jiang Lisheng stretched out his hands and hugged his waist.
The soft body pressed against him, and Wei Qinglan felt warm in his heart, "You slept for three days. Before you went to bed, I saw that you were very tired, and I thought you would sleep for many more days, but I didn't expect you to wake up after three days."
"Do you think that since I was sleepy when I was Qingxu's disciple, I should be sleepy now as well?" Jiang Lisheng rubbed his head against him.
Wei Qinglan heard her soft voice and said with a smile: "I have this idea. After all, you are pregnant now. Even if you have a divine body, you can't avoid being sleepy."
"My cultivation is not given for nothing, unlike when I was a disciple of Qingxu." Jiang Lisheng let go of Wei Qinglan, "Let's go, I miss Qingxu, let's go now."
Wei Qinglan naturally agreed to his request, "Okay."
The two of them packed up and left the main temple.
Jiang Lisheng looked around and found that Xi Jili was gone. She released her spiritual sense and learned that he had returned to the Tongshen Platform. Now he seemed to have let it go and was seriously healing his wounds. The people placed on the Tongshen Platform were all fine, and she had nothing to worry about.
She withdrew her spiritual sense, informed Wen Bieyan, took out the Xuantian Realm, and left the Divine Realm with Wei Qinglan.
She left so quickly and decisively that Wen Bieyan didn't have time to see them off.
He replied to Jiang Lisheng speechlessly, "Your Excellency, why are you in such a hurry to leave? No one is stopping you."
"I want to drink peach wine." Jiang Lisheng replied, "The Divine Realm is now in your hands. Ask the medical officer to think of a way to treat Ji Li's injury so that he can recover sooner, and he can help you with your work sooner. From now on, you can command him."
Wen Bieyan paused for a moment, "You don't want him anymore?"
Jiang Lisheng corrected, "I don't want him to follow me. I don't need a divine servant anymore."
Wen Bieyan thought about it and realized that since the Demon Lord followed him closely, he naturally didn't need a divine servant. He had no objection, "Can he let it go?"
"He has come to terms with it, don't worry." Jiang Lisheng wouldn't have been so sure if he hadn't woken up and heard Xi Jili apologizing to Wei Qinglan.
"Okay." Wen Bieyan thought for a moment, "Doctor Qu is still needed, right? When she wakes up, let her go find you."
Jiang Lisheng naturally needs Qu Chiqiao, "Okay."
