In Yongchuan High School, the girls are preparing for high jump practice in the gymnasium. The red and white sportswear on their bodies vaguely outlines the curves of their bodies when they move or stand still, which makes the adolescent boys who are practicing at the other end unbearable. Stay and take a few more glances.
Xia Qiu was among those girls. She and Liu Lingmei were facing each other, pressing their legs and jumping up on the spot. As soon as she raised her head, she could see Liu Lingmei's rosy face, and then she couldn't help but straighten up and look around. Who would have thought that she, who was in a state of soul separation a few days ago and didn't know whether she could wake up, would now be like an ordinary person? High school students also take physical education classes.
The memories of everyone in the class were tampered with by Ouyang Xiaoleng using hypnosis, so no one remembered that he and she had been away for such a long time. In everyone's eyes, they seemed to come to school on time every day. Listening to their laughter made her feel relaxed and her whole body seemed to be rejuvenated.
After the Soul Resurrection Ceremony ended that day, her soul successfully returned to her body from the Soul Leaving Realm, but it took her nearly three days to get used to using this body. Her body's functions had not declined, but she always felt that any movement she made seemed particularly heavy. Even walking and talking were a bit difficult. In addition, she didn't feel hungry. She suspected that her sense of taste might still be in a sleep state.
The first thing she was eager to do after she woke up was to go to Xianhequan Township to check out the situation of Immortal Yuhe. Seeing that she had just recovered and her body was still weak, Ouyang Xiaoleng repeatedly stopped her, but she refused to let him or anyone else. Instead of going on his behalf, he later had to agree to accompany her three days later.
The fog that had condensed on the lake in Xianhequan Township completely dissipated for some unknown reason, and the reeds on the shore had all withered. The entire lake looked lifeless, and it no longer had the fairy spirit of the past. There was not a single cloud in the sky, not even a trace of the crane. Without their chirping, the surroundings were eerily quiet. This place seems to have become another place, a desolate place that is completely unfamiliar to Xia Qiu who once lived with Yuhe Immortal on Changsheng Island.
An ominous feeling surged into her heart. She and Ouyang Xiaoleng faced the direction of Changsheng Island side by side, and they were troubled by not knowing how to get to the island. Suddenly, several black shadows appeared in the lake in front of them. When they took a look, it turned out to be the group of giant strange fish that had been guarding the Immortal Lake Temple in the lake. They were slowly approaching the shore and sticking their big heads out of the water. Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't know what those giant strange fish were going to do, so he protected Xia Qiu behind him.
The fish scales on the strange fish are like armor, and they are arranged neatly when swimming. After the first one stretched out half of its body, it opened its mouth and said: "Master Demon King Fox, we have been waiting here for a long time."
"Oh? You have been blocking us from entering the water before." Ouyang Xiaoleng said doubtfully.
"Before, we were ordered by the God Lord to guard the Immortal Lake Temple and not allow anyone to approach. Later, the God Lord Honglin was taken away by Meng'er, and we were also controlled by him. Now Qingyun and his group have been defeated by you. After losing the God Lord, we also Become a free body." The strange fish spoke very slowly, with bubbles coming out of its mouth as it spoke.
"Can you send us to Changsheng Island?" Xia Qiu asked tentatively.
"Of course, we can't land on land, so we don't know what happened on the island. Maybe you can give us the answer." The strange fish answered her, "Please come on our backs!"
"How do we know if you are still working for Qingyun?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng is still wary of these strange fish. In Xianhequan Township, neither he nor Xia Qiu can exert their power. Once they enter the water, they will be their territory. , if this is a trap, the two of them will undoubtedly become a gluttonous feast for the big fish.
"Actually, we have something we want to ask Immortal Yu He. We heard that he was once the most beloved spiritual beast of the God of Heaven, Master Qiansu. We want to ask for his help and then ask Master Qiansu to send a new god to this Immortal Lake Temple. Before. After Qingyun's destruction, the seal in the temple is no longer very stable, and I am afraid that dark power will leak out from inside and outside the Source Sin Blood Pond at any time." Big Fish explained slowly.
"Okay, but remember! If you dare to deceive us both, someone will always come to deal with you!" Ouyang Xiaoleng put down his hand protecting Xia Qiu and warned them again.
"yes!"
The big fish in the lead finished its response and turned around with its companions behind it. Only it and the other fish kept half of their bodies on the water, while the others sank into the water. Ouyang Xiaoleng helped Xia Qiu walk to the back of one of the strange fish, and then he jumped on the back of the other strange fish. After they stood firm, the big fish began to swim slowly towards Changsheng Island.
Along the way, Xia Qiu's heart was beating very fast. Ouyang Xiaoleng kept comforting her and said, "Don't be afraid!"
"Thank you!" Xia Qiu said to the big fish that had just carried her after jumping to the shore.
"We will wait here!" The big fish temporarily sank its body into the water and remained still.
The moment they set foot on Changsheng Island, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaolen finally breathed a sigh of relief. What pleased her was that the plants on the island were still growing very luxuriantly, with green leaves and colorful flowers clustered together, creating a prosperous scene. She remembered that the plants on the island were closely related to the life of Yuzuru Sennin, so she became convinced that he must still be alive.
She and Ouyang Xiaoleng ran hand in hand to the stone pavilion in the center of the island. In the stone pavilion, only the white chair stood alone in the center. On the chair, the red hair ornaments of Yuhe Immortal were placed neatly. There, there was no trace of him.
"Where did he go?" Xia Qiu said to himself.
"Maybe he just went somewhere with the crane..."
Ouyang Xiaoleng felt that it might be better not to see Yuhe Immortal, thinking that this would mean that he still had a glimmer of hope. Now Xia Qiu might not be able to accept any blow for the time being.
"That must be the case!" Xia Qiu responded, her eyes filled with hope again. She decided to take away Yuhe Sennin's hair ornaments from the chair. "When he comes back, he should know that someone has come to see him, right?"
After returning to the royal city of Yongchuan, Ouyang Xiaoleng returned to the human world with Xia Qiu. She could feel that after everything he had gone through before, his desire to protect her was unprecedentedly expanded, and he would never leave her. He no longer avoids her sight, but often observes her face carefully. Sometimes he will hold her hand and say nothing, just stay quietly for a while. Only in this way can he feel at ease. He must take it one step at a time. He repeatedly confirmed that she was there, beside him, and that this was not an illusion.
Although when Xia Qiu returned home, for her grandparents, she just came back from school as normal, but she couldn't help but burst into tears and hugged them tightly. While recuperating in the demon world, her lost appetite finally revived when she smelled the soup made by her grandma. She touched her growling stomach and smiled knowingly.
The room was spotless, and her grandma would clean it for her every day. Before heading to the Red Mir Dungeon, the little fox doll Ouyang Xiaoleng gave her at the video game center was lying quietly on her bedside. She put her face on it. Buried under the quilt, smelling the sun-baked smell of the pure cotton on the quilt, I soon fell asleep peacefully.
While half asleep and half awake, there was a rustling sound in her ears. At first, she thought it was the sound of rain, but when she listened carefully, it didn't sound like it. Her heart sank, and she wondered whether it might be Qingyun or his men appearing again. Calmly calling out the plum blade, he was always ready to welcome the uninvited guests outside the window.
The window was opened from the outside. She squinted her eyes and pretended to be still asleep. She vaguely saw a tall figure jumping in from the window. The man was dressed in black and did not have any weapons in his hands. He first settled on her desk, then came to the ground, and finally walked to her bed and moved his face closer to hers.
She raised the plum blade in her hand and pressed it against the man's neck, and asked in a low voice: "Who are you? Did Qingyun send you here?"
The man raised a hand. She originally thought he wanted to fight back, but unexpectedly he just lit a ball of demon fire, and his face was reflected in the light of the demon fire. She recognized him at a glance as Qingyun's general Hei. fall from the sky.
"Why did you find this place?" Xia Qiuchi asked.
"I know that appearing so rashly must have scared you, but I'm not here to hurt you, I just want to ask for something." Hei Yun raised his hand and took a few steps back.
"Wait for me on the roof!"
Xia Qiu intuitively felt that Hei Yun was not lying. If he really wanted to harm her, he would have done it just now. With his ability, she would be easily caught by him without any preparation.
"Okay!" Hei Yun nodded and flew out of the window.
Xia Qiu stood up, found a coat, and jumped on the desk. It felt strange to use the window as a door to enter and exit, but now she couldn't care so much. She flew from the window to the roof, where Heiyu was waiting as she asked.
"Tell me, why did you come to me?" Xia Qiu asked, still holding the plum blade tightly.
"You once said something in Chi Lemir that really concerned me. Although some time has passed, I still want to ask you why you said those words at that time?"
"What did I say?" Xia Qiu had no impression of what Hei Yun described.
"You seemed to have become a different person that day, and what you said may be related to my life experience."
"Do you remember what happened before I said those words?"
"Let me think about it, you and I were fighting, and my black meteor knife hurt you."
Xia Qiu frowned, thinking that in order to be able to recall what happened that day, she couldn't let him fuck her again, so she said, "Let me borrow your Black Meteor Knife, but don't do any tricks!"
Black Meteor silently called out his Black Meteor knife and handed it to Xia Qiu with both hands. The moment Xia Qiu touched the blade of the Black Meteor Knife, her body felt an electric shock, and then she realized that she might be separated from her soul at any time. Although she knew in her heart that falling into a state of soul separation in front of the enemy was extremely dangerous, she was powerless to stop it.
