There were so many things I wanted to say, so many things I wanted to say, but at that moment I couldn't say a word, I just held her.
Simply holding the man in front of her was like telling herself that she missed him terribly, not just to herself, but also to Dongfang Long.
Dongfang Long also had a lot to say, but he didn't say anything more. All his words were contained in his embrace. Just holding the person in his arms, the emptiness and loneliness in his heart, and the longing of many years were smoothed out in an instant.
Haitang and Dongfang Long hugged each other like idiots for almost half an hour. When they finally let go, Haitang looked at Dongfang Long and said, "Tangtang... um..."
"Say sorry?" Haitang looked at Dongfang Long and asked. Dongfang Long nodded. Haitang grabbed Dongfang Long's hand and bit it. Dongfang Long blinked and looked at Haitang.
"Why are you apologizing? We're husband and wife, there's no need for apologies. Besides, you have your things to do, and so do I, Xiaolong... It's enough that I know you didn't mean it." Haitang said as she looked at Dongfang Long.
Haitang knew that Dongfang Long didn't do it on purpose, and she understood that separation was inevitable for adults. What she needed to do was wait for him to come to her. Now that he hadn't gone back to find her, she would come to find Dongfang Long herself.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Long's eyes reddened, and he kissed Haitang tightly. Haitang felt his burning breath and responded in kind. After a deep and lingering kiss, Haitang leaned against Dongfang Long's chest.
"Xiaolong, how have you been all these years? Why haven't you gone back?" Haitang asked Dongfang Long.
"After I arrived in the Holy Land, I was imprisoned for a period of time because I needed to learn about some things there. Later, I went to the Dragon Tomb, where the souls couldn't find peace. They needed me to retrieve some things so they could rest in peace. So, I've been searching for these things all these years. However... these things aren't easy to obtain. I just happened to think I could use this arena competition to get them." He said, looking at Haitang.
When Dongfang Long looked at Haitang, he rubbed his head against her body. "I originally planned to go back to find Tangtang after this matter was resolved."
"Tangtang... is the Holy Domain going to remain silent?" Dongfang Long asked, looking at Haitang. He was a little worried. Haitang nodded when she heard this.
“The Holy Land will remain silent, and if I’m not mistaken, this could happen within the next year or two,” Haitang said, looking at Dongfang Long. “Little Long, after you’ve taken care of your business, I also plan to take care of some of my own matters during this period.”
"Does Tangtang want to save the people of the Holy Domain?" Dongfang Long asked, looking at Haitang. "Tangtang, I've seen many things here. The Holy Domain... it sounds like a paradise on earth, but it's just another kind of hell."
Dongfang Long directly told everyone about the Holy Domain. The Holy Domain operates on a family model, with many tribes maintained by a single family, which then continuously expands.
In this situation, there are conflicts between both foreign and local orcs, and it is especially unfriendly to females.
"I don't want you to get hurt," Dongfang Long said. Saving the people here wouldn't be as simple as he imagined; they simply wouldn't listen to a female.
"Xiaolong, I know." Upon hearing this, Haitang nodded and said, "Xiaolong, don't worry, I'm not stupid. There are some things I know how to do. Although I want to save the people here, the problem is... I'm not a fool. For me, I'll just do my best."
Haitang knew very well what she had to do, and she also understood that if she didn't handle things well, they might implicate her. Haitang was not someone who would sacrifice herself for others.
If the people in the Holy Land can't be changed, then all my efforts are just that—efforts. Whether I go all out or risk my life to change things, it's just something others would do, not something I would do myself.
To be selfish, Haitang would only go all out and risk her life for the Tiger Clan and for the people she cares about. She has never had the thought of dying for someone else.
When Dongfang Long heard this, he nodded and looked at Haitang, saying, "I know Tangtang will handle it. Tangtang... here..." He then handed Haitang some food.
When Haitang looked at it, she said, "Cherry, I knew you might have found Cherry." Haitang remembered what had happened earlier. She had originally wanted Yueyue to stand up for herself so that Dongfang Long could see it.
Unexpectedly, Dongfang Long came to find her first. Dongfang Long nodded when he heard this. "Yes, I found it by chance on the road." As he spoke, he took out something else, and Haitang was stunned.
"This thing..." Haitang was stunned. It was something like amber, with a sparkling object inside, a diamond-shaped pendant. Haitang was somewhat surprised and reached out to touch it. It really was amber.
The item inside was also a pendant. "Where did you find this?" Haitang asked. Dongfang Long smiled when he looked at Haitang.
"It's in the Dragon Tomb. It's said to have been left many years ago, but no one knows where it came from," Dongfang Long said upon hearing this. Haitang looked at it and said, "However, if the people on the Turtle Clan's side have anyone who is on good terms with the Dragon Clan, they should know where it was found."
Upon hearing this, Haitang looked at it and couldn't help but feel a little excited. "This thing is very beautiful. I think Tangtang will definitely like it."
