In the Infinite Heaven, since early morning, the dead souls have been organizing and rebuilding after the war under the leadership of the island owners. When the pure white Jihun boat passed by them accompanied by water birds, they couldn't help but raise their heads and take a look, because the girl on that boat had become a legend among them.
Xia Qiu has been looking out through the window in front of the ship's control room. Together with Xiao Libai on her shoulder, the calm and boundless heaven at this moment is imprinted in their eyes and in their hearts. Although the time I stayed here was not long, I experienced such a thrilling and unexpected adventure. In addition to Xia Qiu's soul power being significantly improved, what's more important is her spiritual growth.
She couldn't wait to share everything here and her own growth with Ouyang Xiaoleng, as well as things about his father Ouyang Xueye, and she was also thinking about successfully delivering the letters that the dead souls had given her to the people they valued. In my hands are my grandparents who are far away in Yongchuan, I wonder if they are well.
The door of the control room was suddenly opened by the Holy Child Wuyou. He walked in and said with a serious face: "We will be arriving at the Great Falls soon, and it will be a little bumpy. In addition, are you sure your friends will be waiting in the Soul Leaving Realm? Following you?"
"Well, he made an agreement with me!" Xia Qiu replied affirmatively.
"It's not that I don't trust your friend, it's just that the realm of soul separation has not been very peaceful recently, and I'm afraid it will be dangerous to leave you there alone." Wuyou Saint Boy expressed his worries.
"I wonder if the monster has fled to the realm of soul separation..."
Just like the relaxation period after the big exam, Xia Qiu was reminded of the monster she had to be wary of after being reminded by the Holy Boy Wuyou.
"How many days are left until the soul-changing spell expires?"
"Twenty-five days."
"I hope the son of Xue Ye can take back your body soon." Wuyou Holy Child saw Xia Qiu's worry. When he said this, he wanted to put his arm on her shoulder and pat her, but he stood on the ground. I tried several times but couldn't do it at all, so I complained, "Little girl, have you grown taller again?"
"Will you also grow taller in the infinite heaven?" Xia Qiu asked while thinking.
"That's what I said! It's so annoying!"
The worry-free holy boy suddenly became a little angry, and then he lightly kicked the ground with his feet and flew up. He got what he wanted and patted Xia Qiu's shoulders several times, then simply ruffled her hair, and then kept laughing like a child who succeeded in making trouble.
Xia Qiu looked at him helplessly and shook her head. She soon laughed and said, "Thank you for taking care of me these days!"
When Xia Qiu said this, Wuyou Saint Boy's eyes started to get a little wet, and he didn't know if the tears were from laughter. He responded: "Don't make it so serious, I don't like to be sensational."
While talking and laughing, Xia Qiu looked up again and saw that the Jihun Ship had sailed away from the Great Falls, which meant that they had left the Infinite Heaven. She couldn't help but feel a little sad, so she walked closer to the window and looked out, but she could only see layers of thick fog behind the waterfall.
The Holy Child Wuyou saw Xia Qiu's reluctance to leave the boundless heaven, and advised her: "Don't miss this place anymore, you belong to another world."
"Yeah!" Xia Qiu responded, but her eyes couldn't help but look in the original direction.
The Jihun ship arrived at the dock at noon, which is where it is connected to the Soul Leaving Realm. When the cabin door was opened, the familiar horn sounded. Xia Qiu knew that soon, the souls of the dead would come out of the house waiting to board the ship one after another and form a long queue, so she had to leave the ship quickly.
"I heard Xue Ye say that the etiquette of farewell in the human world is called a hug, is it like this?" Holy Boy Wuyou stretched out his arm and asked.
"Yes."
Xia Qiu leaned down and almost ran into the arms of the Holy Child Wuyou. She recalled that when she first met him, she was trying every possible means to get into the soul-saving ship. At that time, she never imagined that he would later become her partner and teacher.
"The Jihun Ship has returned to normal, which means that I may appear here at the same time every day, so no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can come to me!" Wuyou Holy Child did not forget to give Xia Qiu a final message.
On the pier waiting to board the ship, Xia Qiu looked over the heads of the dead souls who had already started queuing up, but could not find the figure of Yuhe Immortal. She hesitated whether she should continue to wait at the dock, because the tree house in the dense forest she had seen in the Mirror of Kun had been discovered by the white bats, so it seemed unrealistic to return there.
She walked into the room where she was waiting to board the ship, and randomly picked a seat in the empty room to sit down. Not knowing where to go, she let out a long sigh. Xiao Libai heard this and rubbed her face with his forehead. She stretched out her hand to take it off her shoulders and checked the wounds on its body. She didn't know whether it was because the self-healing ability of this spiritual beast was too strong, or whether Huawan's medical skills were really as amazing as the legend said. The deep wound has scabbed over, and it may not take long before it can completely heal.
Just when she was still rejoicing over Xiao Libai's miraculous recovery, there was a rush of footsteps and the cry of a child outside.
"You monsters, don't follow me, go away, go away! Help!"
Xia Qiu immediately summoned the plum blade and rushed out of the house, and bumped into the child who was asking for help. Not far behind the child, there was a group of white bats that she was all too familiar with. She pulled the child behind her and said without looking back: "Don't be afraid, don't leave me too far!"
Then he raised his plum blade and faced the monsters directly. The white bats looked at each other and emitted a burst of high-frequency sound waves. Even if she doesn't understand what they mean, Xia Qiu can still feel their joy, which comes from their unexpected harvest. She guessed that the reason why they were chasing this child might have something to do with her.
Xiaolibai rushed to her and made a warning sound at the white bats. Xia Qiu knew that it also wanted to transform and fight, but its wounds had just grown, and she was worried about the consequences of rashly fighting. The wound had an impact again, so he said to it: "Xiao Libai, go behind me and be with that child."
The Jihun Ship has already left the dock, and now Xia Qiu can only rely on herself. She adjusted her breathing and faced the enemy in front of her fearlessly. A white bat waved a spear and flew towards her first. She easily deflected its attack with her plum blade, then turned around and followed up with a knife, cutting a big hole in the white bat's cloak, but the other white bats Soon a swarm of people followed, surrounding her and the children she was protecting behind her.
Not only did Xia Qiu have to fight, but she also had to take care of the safety of the child behind her. Coupled with the large number of white bats, she felt a little tired after a while. And she was also worried that these monsters would soon attract more companions, and then they would not even have a chance to escape.
Following the instructions taught by the Holy Child Wuyou, she gathered her spiritual power, burned it instantly and transferred it to her plum blade. While leading most of the white bats to the ground, he seized the opportunity and swung violently to raise dust from the ground, blocking the sight of these monsters. And under the cover of the spreading dust, he picked up the child and shouted: "Little Li Bai."
Xiaolibai heard the sound and transformed into a huge form. She flew up on her back and continued to rise into the air. The white bats behind her were still chasing her. She didn't know where to escape for a moment, so she could only rush forward blindly.
"Sister, come back to Jinghua Village with me! It's a village in the Realm of Soul Lift. I'm a resident there. These monsters can't hurt us there!" The little child in her arms suddenly recovered from the fright. said.
She drove Xiaoli Bai forward and backward to avoid the pursuit of the white bats. As she expected, the number of white bats soon increased. There were many times when those white bats almost caught them, but every time Xiaolibai used her explosive power and control to change the direction of her speed to resolve it. They followed the child's guidance and stumbled to the sky above the village he mentioned.
The white bats also rushed towards the village with them, but they bumped into an invisible barrier again and again, and finally had to give up. After they let out an angry hiss, they turned around and left.
Xia Qiu and the others finally landed safely in the village. She remembered that Yu Hexian once mentioned that there was a village in the realm of soul separation, where the souls of monsters who had soul power but fell into a coma were living. The bowl of noodles I brought was probably bought from this village.
The place where they landed happened to be an open space in the center of the village. Many people had been standing there. When they saw Xia Qiu rolling off Xiaolibai's back and the child in her arms, everyone gathered around in surprise. .
An elder walked out of the crowd. He was wearing a light blue robe, his white hair was trimmed very short, and his eyes revealed wisdom. He shouted to the child: "Xiao Mo!"
"Elder! Wow..."
The child responded and threw himself into the elder's arms, and then burst into tears.
"Why didn't you listen to me and ran out of the village?!" the elder asked, touching Xiao Mo's head.
"I'm going to find my big brother... I'm very worried about him." Xiao Mo responded with choked sobs.
"And who is this girl?" the elder asked again.
"It was this sister who saved me from the white bat." Xiao Mo said as he raised his head and rubbed the snot and tears on his face.
"Oh? Then I really have to thank you, little girl!" The elder nodded gratefully to Xia Qiu and said.
"Nothing, my name is Xia Qiu." Xia Qiu also smiled back.
"You are Xia Qiu, as expected..." A hint of surprise suddenly flashed in the elder's eyes.
"Do you know me?" Xia Qiu asked him.
"I just heard your name. One of my friends mentioned you to me. He said that if he fails to show up in time when you come, he will let me leave you in the village and wait for him to protect you."
"Who is this friend of yours?"
"Feather Crane Immortal!"
