Xi Yue took a deep breath, but suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Xiaochi rushed over and supported her. Dandan, who was originally in her arms, was so scared that she jumped down and called for her mother nervously.
Xi Yue shook her head and said, "I'm fine. It's just that my Wood Essence has been over-depleted. I just need to rest for a day."
"Master Zijin, I'm afraid I can only rescue the people on Zijin Island tomorrow."
True Man Zijin said quickly: "The Saint is willing to sacrifice the essence of wood to save the people on the island, which is already a great gift to them. Please take good care of yourself. Your return is the greatest gift to the Divine Realm and all planes."

Qinglong stood outside Ji Mingyu's house with an expressionless face, waiting from the afternoon until late at night.
The entire Zijin Island was in complete silence, and almost everyone was in deep sleep.
Suddenly, the door of the room opened without any sound, but a tall figure stood behind the door, which scared Qinglong.
When he found out that the person standing behind him was Ji Mingyu, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Master!"
Ji Mingyu's eyes were dim, and he asked calmly, "Where's Xi'er?"
"Ms. Xi Yue was exhausted after treating Golden Flying Dragon and is now resting in the next room."
Ji Mingyu nodded, without saying anything more, turned around and pushed open another door.
When the door closed in front of him, Qinglong suddenly came to his senses and frowned slightly.
He always felt that after coming out of the mirage this time, there was a terrifyingly powerful aura on his body. Could it be that his master had become stronger again
He should be happy that his master has become stronger, but why does he feel a deep-seated fear
It should be... just his illusion, right
Ji Mingyu walked lightly and slowly to the bed.
It was late at night, and moonlight poured in from the slightly open window, falling on the sleeping girl on the bed.
The girl closed her eyes and slept soundly. Her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled and her eyelashes were trembling slightly, as if she was experiencing a nightmare that she could not escape.
The girl's face was like a delicate flower that had just bloomed in the spring breeze and rain. It was so beautiful, so fresh, and so fragrant that one could not wait to swallow it in one gulp.
When she fell asleep, she was only wearing a thin dress with her collar half open, revealing her delicate and white collarbone, outlining the most seductive lines and pictures in the night.
No matter what kind of man he is, his blood will boil when he sees such a scene, not to mention that the person lying there is the one he loves.
But what Ji Mingyu saw was the girl's pale face, chapped lips, and the helplessness and confusion on her face.
His brows twitched, and a kind of silent heartache and pity gripped his heart tightly.
The anger and fear that he had felt when he woke up and couldn't see the girl were all replaced by heartache at this moment.
Ji Mingyu bent down, sat down beside the bed, picked up the sleeping girl and held her in his arms, wrapping her tightly in his arms and wings.
The sleeping girl, after being held in his arms, her originally wrinkled brows slowly relaxed, and her originally confused and helpless expression turned into one of peace of mind and dependence. She slightly adjusted her sleeping position, leaned closer to him, and then fell into deep sleep again.
Ji Mingyu looked at the girl's seemingly peaceful smile, and the remaining coldness and harshness in his eyes faded away, turning into a gentleness and love that could drown people. (To be continued)
