As the Universe Turns - Chapter 505
Chapter 505 Dispel Sword Qi
Three days later, in the evening, Xiao Chen had already returned to the Cyanwood Cliff. After confirming that no one was following him, he left for the secluded valley.
The stream in the valley was murmuring, and the scenery was quiet. Shen Jing was grinding medicine in front of the cave. Seeing him return, she asked nervously, “Is something wrong?”
Xiao Chen shook his head. He didn’t tell her about Cangfeng Valley for now. However, he made such a big commotion in Cangfeng Valley that day. At that time, there were people from Yu Xu Guan. He thought that this matter would soon spread in Xianyuan Five Realms.
“I’ve got the Sword Release Art. Everything went smoothly.”
He slowly walked over. Shen Jing saw Feng Qingyun’s calm appearance and said something, but it must have been dangerous in Cangfeng Valley that day.
“Where’s Wei Yang? How is she?”
Xiao Chen arrived in front of the cave and looked inside. Just as he was about to enter, Shen Jing hurriedly opened her hands and stopped him. “Wait … you, you can’t go in now.”
“What’s the matter?”
Xiao Chen frowned. He was worried that he would encounter another problem. However, he quickly understood that it was probably because he was inconvenient to enter at this moment.
“Wait a moment. I’ll go in and take a look. I’ll let you in later.”
Shen Jing raised her head and looked at him. As she spoke, she quickly walked into the cave. Xiao Chen nodded and waited outside.
Inside the cave, Hua Weiyang was lying quietly on the stone bed, like a fairy carved out of jade. She was flawless and ice-clear.
The Fusang Flower floated above her chest, emitting traces of red mist, which slowly penetrated into her body.
This red mist was the life essence of the Fusang Flower. In order to avoid obstructing her absorption, Shen Jing took off the clothes on her body, so she didn’t let Xiao Chen in just now.
At this moment, Shen Jing slowly approached. She watched as the red mist slowly seeped into Hua Weiyang’s body. Over the past ten days, Hua Weiyang’s condition had gradually improved. Her heartbeat slowly recovered, and her chest began to heave slightly.
Shen Jing watched quietly. Even though they were both women, they were still infatuated with Hua Weiyang’s ice-carved jade-like body. How could there be such a beautiful person in this world? Unfortunately, why was she the daughter of the Devil Dao? She was not tolerated by the world …
Now that everyone wanted to kill her in the Righteous Dao of the world, Xianyuan Five Realms no longer had a place for her.
“Sigh …”
With a light sigh, Shen Jing found a clean dress and put it back on for her. After everything was done, she said to the outside, “You can come in now.”
After a while, Xiao Chen came in from the outside and saw Hua Weiyang. For some reason, her heart suddenly hurt. She recalled the scene in her mind. When she first met in Dongjie, she disguised herself as a weird granny and the two of them avoided Cangfeng Valley’s pursuit.
In the forest, they fought the zither, and in the end, they went to the Immortal Sect to return the zither … The Kunlun Mountains were covered in snow and ice, and the north wind beneath the Immortal Burial Cliff was ruthless.
Everything that had happened in the past flashed past his heart. He raised his head and looked at Shen Jing as if all his last hopes had been handed over to her. He asked, “Can she wake up?”
“I…”
Shen Jing did not know how to answer him. She looked at Hua Weiyang and slowly said, “From the looks of it, the situation is gradually improving, but what will happen in the end … I am powerless to do anything about it. If she really has the Profound Yin Physique, her lifespan will be exhausted and no one will be able to do anything about it.”
At the end of her sentence, Shen Jing slowly turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. “You must be mentally prepared. If she doesn’t wake up, she might never wake up again …”
Xiao Chen clenched his fingers tightly. Suddenly, a layer of hazy fog appeared in front of his eyes. Inside the fog, it was as if he had seen the scenes of the past one after another.
Even if it was the Profound Yin Body, her lifespan shouldn’t have passed so quickly. It was because she was in Xuanqing Sect for the first time, and Heavenly Spirit Sect for the second time. In order to obtain the Evergreen Flower Leaf Seed for herself, she had wasted no effort on Spiritual Energy and accomplished something that the entire Heavenly Spirit Sect couldn’t accomplish.
The last time was in Zhongyue Peak. She blocked everyone’s pursuit for herself, and Spiritual Energy suddenly lost control …
Shen Jing sighed softly and looked at Hua Weiyang. “Even if she wakes up, you must be prepared. Right now, the entire Immortal Origin Five Domains can’t hold her anymore … Do you understand?”
At the end of her sentence, Shen Jing turned her head and looked at Xiao Chen quietly. After a long time, she said, “If you are still Ling Yin’s disciple one day, you will not be able to stay together in this world for one day.”
Xiao Chen didn’t say anything. He closed his eyes. He still remembered the scene from the Immortal Burying Cliff. Time slowly passed. It was probably dark outside. Shen Jing stood up and said, “You go out first. I’ll take a look for her.”
“Alright …”
Xiao Chen looked at Hua Weiyang again and slowly walked out of the cave.
Outside, a gust of cold wind blew over, and the leaves scattered. The hook moon in the sky was icy cold, carrying a trace of loneliness and coldness.
After about an incense stick of time, Shen Jing came out of the cave. Xiao Chen looked at her and saw that her expression was not good either. He said, “I have the Sword Release Art. I will help you dissolve the sword qi in your body first.”
“Mm …”
Shen Jing nodded. The two of them went to a precipice. The faint moonlight shone on their bodies, and there was only an endless chill.
Xiao Chen helped her neutralize the Sword Qi in her body. Naturally, it was impossible for him to be as rough as when he forced out the Sword Qi from the Sword Forging Elder’s body in the Hidden Edge Valley that day. The Sky Spill Sword Qi in Shen Jing’s body had been buried for two years, and now it could only be drawn out bit by bit. A slight carelessness would cause more injuries to her heart and lungs.
The two of them sat on the ice-cold stone. Shen Jing sat in front of them and looked back. She wanted to undo her clothes, but Xiao Chen still hadn’t closed her eyes. She frowned and said, “Hey, kid, I’m your sister. What am I thinking?”
“Sorry …”
Xiao Chen immediately closed his eyes. When he was a child in Ning Village, he had always treated Shen Jing as his elder sister. He had absolutely no indiscriminate thoughts.
Shen Jing slowly untied her clothes, only to see that under her right shoulder, her originally soft jade-like skin had left behind a shocking sword wound.
It was left behind by Liu Xuanyang’s sword two years ago. At that time, in order to hug Wei Yang, she had endured that sword strike. If not for the two alchemists blocking it first, she would have lost her life at that time.
At this moment, Xiao Chen closed his eyes, but he could clearly touch the wound on her back. At this moment, he could imagine the scene of that day. She blocked this sword just for the promise that night before he left that she would protect Wei Yang before he returned …
“Does it still hurt?”
“It doesn’t hurt anymore.”
Shen Jing frowned and said faintly. Slowly, scenes of her youth appeared in her memories.
“Is it still painful?”
“Hehe, it doesn’t hurt anymore. I’ll beat that prince of Zhao to the ground later … Aiyo! It hurts! Sister Shen Jing, take it easy!”
The moonlight was clear and cold, and Shen Jing’s eyes suddenly turned red. In her mind, there was the scene of Ning Village being destroyed, as well as the scene of that person personally cutting off Master’s head when Spirit Pivot Palace was destroyed …
