Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Uncle Bird's medicinal liquid was extremely effective, made from a hundred kinds of spiritual herbs, and even contained the rare and precious Spring of Life.

Jun Wuxie's physical recovery ability was already extremely strong. Immersed in the medicinal liquid, his physical injuries were rapidly repaired.

At dusk.

Su Lan left the carriage and found some wood in the abandoned village, lighting a bonfire in front of the carriage.

Although being at the foot of Mount Zongwang should be safe, she still planned to keep watch outside.

In the current situation, Jun Wuxie was seriously injured and dying, and Ji Yinlan's condition was also not good, both needing to heal.

Inside the carriage.

Ji Yinlan held Jun Wuxie, letting his body lean against her chest.

She herself was also circulating her true energy, guiding the medicinal energy of the Lesser Revitalizing Pill to restore her own severely depleted essence.

The Heavenly Maiden Seven Absolute Steps, this secret technique, came from the deepest part of her memory.

She had this memory since she was a child, but she couldn't remember how such a powerful divine ability could exist in her mind.

At first, she thought it was a inheritance from her bloodline, but later she discovered that this was not a secret technique inherited from her bloodline, but something that truly came from the depths of her memory.

Since being accepted as a disciple by that powerful expert, her horizons broadened. The more she understood about certain things in the cultivation world, the more she suspected that she had secrets she didn't know about.

Late at night, she absorbed all the medicinal energy of the Lesser Revitalizing Pill. Her life essence recovered greatly, her spirit became full, and her pale face turned rosy.

The moment she opened her eyes, she couldn't help but be startled.

The cracks on the man in her arms had all been repaired, his skin smooth, shimmering with a golden glaze-like luster, making one want to gently stroke it with their hand.

This feeling made her feel ashamed, almost suspecting that she had fallen.

As long as she was in front of him, her Dao heart was always vulnerable, causing her to sink and giving rise to some unbelievable thoughts.

She quickly checked the condition of his body, and found that the terrible cracks in his internal organs, bones, meridians, etc., had now been greatly restored, with only some slight, shallow cracks remaining.

At this point, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

A knowing smile appeared on her beautiful face.

She moved slightly, thinking that Jun Wuxie should now be able to sit steadily on the wooden barrel by himself, and wanted to withdraw.

As a result, just as she was about to move, she heard him leaning against her body and saying softly, "Don't move, it's quite comfortable like this."

This voice was a bit lazy, with a very enjoyable tone.

"You… you were awake a long time ago?"

Ji Yinlan's delicate face instantly flushed red.

This man had been awake for a long time, but he didn't tell her, and let her continue to hold him in such an embarrassing position, how hateful!

She couldn't help but feel ashamed and indignant, pushing him away forcefully, and was about to go out.

As a result, Jun Wuxie suddenly turned around, and a pair of strong and powerful arms embraced her in her exclamation.

"Wuxie… you… let me go…"

She struggled a few times, but couldn't break free, feeling the pair of strong arms gradually tightening, her heart also beating faster, like a deer running wild, making her flustered, the red blush on her face quickly spreading to her crystal ears, and then spreading to her snow-white neck, turning completely red.

Gradually, she stopped struggling.

She was a little afraid of being in contact in such an ambiguous and intimate way when they were both awake, but at the same time, she also very contradictorily liked this feeling.

In the end, her hand that was originally pushing against his chest gradually turned into hugging him.

They embraced each other.

She rested her head on his shoulder, her breathing uncontrollably disordered, able to clearly hear her own pounding heartbeat.

Just let myself experience this feeling…

She said to herself in her heart.

In a few days, I will be leaving, and I don't know when we will meet again after this separation.

She suddenly realized that she was very reluctant in her heart.

"Promise me, don't do this again in the future."

She said softly.

"When facing that old woman, didn't you also disregard your life for me?" Jun Wuxie shook his head and said, "For Yueyao, I will do anything, and for you too."

"I don't dare to hope to compare with Yueyao. In your heart, no one will ever be able to replace her position."

Ji Yinlan sighed secretly. Jun Wuxie didn't know about Yueyao's matter. She had been hesitating whether she should tell him.

But after thinking about it again and again, she never knew how to say it.

This matter may be difficult for him to accept.

Jun Wuxie did not deny it, and was silent for a moment, saying, "You are about to leave, right? What exactly happened at the border?"

"It's a long story, the situation is very complicated." Ji Yinlan said with some solemnity, "Actually, since last year, I have foreseen that the flames of war will eventually spread to the borders of my Great Zhou."

"The Xilin Kingdom of the Western Regions has been sending troops to conquer various countries since two years ago. To this day, it has destroyed thirteen countries. At this rate, perhaps in a few months, it will attack the Xian Tu Kingdom, which borders the western side of my Great Zhou. Once Xian Tu is destroyed, with Xilin's style of the past year, it will inevitably send troops south to attack our country's border…"

"Xilin?" Jun Wuxie was shocked: "Is the Xilin Kingdom so strong? Can it wipe out thirteen countries in two years?"

He felt this was too incredible.

The prosperity of a country is by no means overnight. It must go through a long period of precipitation to accumulate strong national power.

If Xilin was really that strong, I'm afraid it would have started to erode the surrounding countries long ago. Why wait until recent years to send troops?

"It's not that simple. Although the Xilin Kingdom has great ambitions and has a strong aggressive nature, it is impossible for them to have such strength. I suspect that there are other forces behind this, otherwise it cannot be explained."

"This time I returned to the capital to customize Xuanjia armor and expand the scale of the Xuanjia Army to fight against the strongest Black Iron Armored Soldiers of the Xilin Kingdom!"

Jun Wuxie was silent for a long time after hearing this.

He didn't expect the real situation to be like this.

Although Ji Yinlan was strong, she wouldn't dare to say she was absolutely safe if she really faced the brutal Xilin army.

In this world, even the strong are afraid of being besieged, and true energy will always be exhausted.

If trapped, even the strong will be exhausted to death!

He now understood why Ji Yinlan had twice hoped that he would join the army.

Body cultivators do have great advantages on the battlefield. The stronger the body, the longer the blood energy and physical strength. Unless it is a long-term explosive battle, it is difficult to exhaust the body cultivator.

"I'm sorry, I…"

"Don't say sorry." Ji Yinlan covered his mouth and said, "Yueyao needs you more. Protect her and protect yourself, so that I can feel at ease."

Jun Wuxie was silent.

At this moment, he didn't know what to say, or what he could say.

They just stayed quietly like this, and no one spoke again.

The next morning.

Jun Wuxie's injuries had completely recovered, and Ji Yinlan said goodbye to him.

He sent her to the entrance of the village, watching her leave until her figure completely disappeared from sight.

When he returned to the front of the carriage, he realized that Su Lan's expression was a bit strange.

"Su Lan, why is your face so ugly? Were you injured yesterday?"

He stepped forward, wanting to check her condition.

Su Lan came back to her senses, shook her head, looked around, with a look of lingering fear.

"What exactly is wrong with you?"

Jun Wuxie felt very strange. It didn't look like she was injured, but she was restless. This was too much of a contrast from the calm and composed her he knew.

"Wuxie, in these days on Mount Zongwang, have you seen anything strange?"

She suddenly asked this.

"Strange things?" Jun Wuxie was stunned, and said, "No, are you saying there are strange things here?"

"Go! Let's leave this village quickly!"

She pulled Jun Wuxie onto the carriage and sped away.

"Su Lan, tell me, what exactly is going on? Did you see something last night?"

Jun Wuxie felt a little hairy in his heart. What did she see that could make Su Lan react like this?

It wasn't until they reached the foot of Mount Zongwang, in front of the mountain path, that Su Lan said with lingering fear: "Last night, I seemed to see… I'm not sure what it was, like a monster, but also like a person, covered in red hair, just under the dead tree in the village…"

"What?"

Jun Wuxie's heart skipped a beat, and a creepy feeling surged into his heart, only feeling a chill running straight through his forehead!

"At that time, I wasn't sure what it was. I thought about going over to take a look, but I found that my body couldn't move at all, as if I was bound by a mysterious force. The monster had a terrifying aura, I wanted to calm down, to be composed, but I just couldn't control the fear in my heart, I wanted to call you, but I couldn't make any sound…"

Jun Wuxie took a deep breath and said, "Su Lan, I'm telling you, you must not say this matter, otherwise it will bring trouble to Zongwang Academy!"

"Young Master, could it be that you know that monster?"

"Don't ask, I can't be sure yet. You go back first, and don't come here at night in the future."

"Alright."

Su Lan didn't ask any more questions, but her heart was full of doubts. What exactly was hidden on this Mount Zongwang?

"How could it be…"

Watching Su Lan leave, Jun Wuxie's face was extremely solemn.

Su Lan would not fabricate such a story for no reason. Even if it was a hallucination, it couldn't be such a coincidence!

Could it be…

He swallowed, this matter was too terrifying.

He turned and ran towards the mountain, he must immediately find Uncle Jiu and Uncle Bird and tell them about this!
