Chapter Seventy-Four: Affection
Tianyan Continent, Tianxin Academy.
Time flies, in the blink of an eye, two years have passed.
Early in the morning, eighteen-year-old Jiu Ge was cultivating on the edge of the cliff, and now, she was already a ninth-order Great Spirit Master, just one step away from breaking through the Spirit Sect's cultivation.
I don't know how long it took, a breeze blew in my face, and Jiu Ge slowly opened his eyes.
She felt the power surging within her, and her thoughts began to drift into the distance.
"Ozawa, my current cultivation has surpassed your cultivation three years ago, but you still haven't woken up...... Do you really want to stay asleep like this? Jiu Ge muttered to himself.
Although she and Nangong Yueze have not known each other for a long time, she has long had feelings for that young man.
From Tianxin Academy to Purple Void Academy, and then from Purple Void Academy to Hidden Moon Pavilion, there are many intersections between her and him, especially in the Blood Sea Enchantment, the two have experienced life and death together.
In the past three years, although Nangong Yueze has never woken up, Jiu Ge has never forgotten him, and whenever he thinks of him, Jiu Ge's heart will be full of distress and fear.
She was afraid that if he fell asleep like this, he would never wake up.
"Squeak squeak...... Squeak......" At this moment, a white nine-tailed spirit fox suddenly burrowed into Jiu Ge's arms, rubbing her cheeks constantly.
This spirit fox was picked up by Jiu Ge from the Linfeng Mountain Range three years ago, and for the past three years, it has been following Jiu Ge and has never left an inch.
Jiu Ge hugged it, looked at those clear eyes, stroked its hair, and said softly: "It's still your best, you have always followed me, and you have never abandoned me." ”
"Squeak squeak...... Squeak squeak......" the little nine-tailed spirit fox called at her with a flattering face.
"Okay, are you hungry, let's go, I'll take you to find something to eat." Just as Jiu Ge was about to get up with the nine-tailed fox in her arms, Qin Xuan's voice suddenly came from behind her.
"Ge'er!"
Hearing the voice, Jiu Ge hurriedly turned his head, only to see Qin Xuan standing not far from her, looking at her with a smile on his face.
"Master, didn't you say that you were going to retreat for half a year? How did it come out a month early? Jiu Ge walked towards Qin Xuan with a smile.
Qin Xuan smiled, "You still have a month to participate in the assessment of the Purple Void Academy, of course I have to end the retreat early, how about it, how about it, how far has your cultivation advanced in the five months of my retreat?" ”
"Master, I have already broken through to the ninth-order Great Spirit Master, if nothing else, before participating in the assessment, I should be able to break through to the first-order Spirit Sect." Jiu Ge replied happily, for example, she who had just entered the Tianxin Academy to cultivate three years ago, and now Jiu Ge has already undergone a transformation.
"In the entire history of Tianxin Academy, there has never been a disciple who has cultivated into a Spirit Sect at the age of eighteen, Ge'er, your cultivation speed, even if you look at the entire Tianyan Continent, I'm afraid no one can match it." Qin Xuan couldn't help but praise.
"The master has won the award, if something happened to Xiao Ze, his current cultivation must have been more than a little higher than mine." Jiu Ge replied in a low voice.
When it came to Nangong Yueze, Qin Xuan couldn't help but sigh? "Yes, it's been three years, and Ozawa hasn't moved at all, and I don't know when this child will wake up?" Okay, let's not talk about him, you can take your spirit fox to eat first, and I'll check your cultivation in the past few months in a while. ”
"Yes, Master." Jiu Ge bowed slightly.
……
The Imperial City of the Nebula Empire, Liuyun Palace.
Nangong Yueze has been lying on the bed in the dormitory for three years, and after three years, he was already thin, but now he looks even thinner.
Just when everyone thought that the Nine Emperor Princes of the Nebula Empire were hopeless, Si Qin, who had not appeared for a long time, suddenly returned.
When he saw Nangong Yueze on the bed, Si Qin was slightly startled, and then hurriedly stepped forward and injected some divine power into his body.
"Oh, my Highness, fortunately, my subordinates came back early, only three days have passed in this heavenly realm, how did your mortal body become like this?" Looking at Nangong Yueze's pale face, Si Qin couldn't help but mutter.
With the input of divine power, the handsome face on the bed finally regained a trace of blood.
"Your Highness, the toxins left by the poison needle in your body have been cleared by your subordinates, and now you are waiting for your Yuan Shen to go to the lower realm again." Si Qin muttered to himself.
At this moment, Chen Shuxian's voice suddenly came from outside the originally quiet hall, "What about Si Qin, didn't someone say that they saw him come back?" Where is he now? Hongu wants to see him!! ”
Si Qin turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw Chen Shuxian hurriedly walking towards the hall.
"I've seen Concubine Chen." Si Qin bowed respectfully to her.
"Si Qin, is it really you??" Chen Shuxian exclaimed in surprise and said: "I heard from the guards just now that I saw you enter Ze'er's dormitory, and the palace still didn't believe it, so I hurried over, Si Qin, tell the palace quickly, where have you been in the past three years?" Hongu thought you had an accident......"
Si Qin bowed his head slightly and replied, "Concubine Chen, in fact, ...... In fact, the humble duty has been looking for the elixir to cure His Royal Highness in the past few years, no, the humble duty finally found it, so he hurriedly rushed back. ”
"What are you talking about, you have already found a way to save Ze'er?" Chen Shuxian asked in surprise.
Si Qin nodded and said affirmatively, "Yes." ”
Hearing this, Chen Shuxian grabbed his arm and said excitedly: "Quick, take it out to the palace and take a look, what elixir have you found?" ”
"Concubine Chen's ......"
Before Si Qin finished speaking, Chen Shuxian had already pulled him to Nangong Yueze's bedside.
Looking at the beloved son lying on the bed, Chen Shuxian's eyes were full of distress, "Ze'er was fifteen years old when he was in a coma, but now he is eighteen years old, but he still hasn't woken up, Bengong sometimes wonders, Bengong didn't give him too much hope in the past, and now, Bengong only hopes that he can live well......"
"Concubine Chen, don't worry, Your Highness, he will be fine."
"Okay, then...... So when will he wake up? Chen Shuxian asked again.
"When will it ......" Si Qin paused, he remembered that before the nether realm, Fufeng had told him that he would arrive in an hour at most, an hour in the heavenly realm, that is, a month in the mortal realm, thinking of this, Si Qin looked at Chen Shuxian and said softly: "At most a month, His Highness will be able to wake up." ”
"A month? Are you telling the truth? Chen Shuxian's eyes widened in disbelief, and her excitement was beyond words.
"It's true." Si Qin nodded heavily, "Concubine Chen, since she has returned, she must do her best to take care of His Highness." ”
"Okay, Si Qin, as long as Ze'er can wake up, whatever reward you want, this palace will promise you." Chen Shuxian cried with joy.
Since Nangong Yueze fell into a coma, she has been living in torment every day, and in the past three years, she has never had a good night's sleep, if she didn't want to see her Aiko wake up with her own eyes, she might not be able to support it for a long time.
"Concubine Chen's words are serious, serving His Royal Highness well is a matter of humble duty, and lowly officials dare not ask for any reward." Si Qin said humbly.
"Okay, with your words, this palace will be relieved." Chen Shuxian said with relief, "By the way, you haven't told this palace yet, where did you find the elixir to save Xiao Ze?" ”
"This ......" Si Qin hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The humble position is the medicine that His Highness asked for in the Divine Hall outside the Imperial City. ”
"Temple of the Gods?" Chen Shuxian raised her eyebrows slightly, "In the past three years, the palace has gone to the shrine of the gods every three days to pray for Ze'er, it seems that the gods still feel that the sincerity of the palace is not enough, so they haven't let Ze'er wake up for a long time......"
"This ......" Si Qin scratched his head, not knowing how to answer for a while, he knew that the god enshrined in the temple of the gods was none other than Si Ming, who was in charge of mortal life.
Speaking of Si Ming, his master is none other than Yao Ji Shenjun, the eldest disciple of Qionghua Shenjun, Yao Ji is Fufeng's senior sister, and she is also the first Shenjun he saw in the heavenly realm after Si Qin Fei became a god.
Seeing that Si Qin didn't answer, Chen Shuxian didn't continue to investigate, "Okay, this palace won't ask you, how can we mortals guess the thoughts of the gods, no matter what, as long as Ze'er can wake up, this palace will be grateful." ”
Si Qin nodded and did not answer again.
……
Heavenly Realm, Zixiao Temple.
Fu Feng had been here for nearly two days, and with the assistance of Emperor Yuan Hao and Qionghua Shenjun, his Yuan Shen injury was quickly healed.
"Father Xie and Master use divine power to heal the child's wounds." Fufeng bowed to the Emperor of Heaven and the Divine Monarch of Qionghua respectively.
"Alright, get up." Heavenly Emperor Yuan Hao waved his hand lightly and said, "Speaking of which, do you still plan to go to the lower realm?" ”
Fufeng nodded, "Erchen suspects that someone is secretly helping Qianluoye to improve his cultivation, and Erchen has to find out about this matter, but my father can rest assured that Erchen will definitely come back before the crown prince's canonization ceremony." ”
"If you want to track down the matter of the Nine Shadows Abyss, why don't you go directly to investigate, why do you have to make yourself a mortal?" Heavenly Emperor Yuan Hao asked with some puzzlement.
"If the son is really in the lower realm, the people in the demon world will probably choose to hide because they are afraid of the son of the minister's cultivation, so the son will not be able to find anything." Fufeng said in a deep voice.
"But with the cultivation of your mortal body, I'm afraid that you can't even protect yourself, so how can you investigate the affairs of the demon world?" The Heavenly Emperor frowned and said.
Fu Feng smiled, "Father, with Si Qin, he will protect Erchen, you don't have to worry, in addition, Erchen has asked him to bring three Nine Heavens Exquisite Long Pill to the lower realm in advance, those pills were refined by Erchen when he was idle before, one can be worth a hundred years of mortal cultivation, as long as Erchen takes those pills, he can make his mortal body cultivation be rapidly improved." ”
Heavenly Emperor Yuan Hao shook his head, sighed and said, "That's it, since you have decided, Benjun has nothing to say, you take care of yourself." ”
"Yes, Father." Fufeng bowed and said, "By the way, the queen mother's side, I also asked my father to bother more, this time because of the second brother's matter, the queen mother was so angry, she shouldn't want to see her sons again." ”
The Emperor nodded, "After all, she is your biological mother, she will not be really angry with you, as long as you are with the princess of the water tribe, your queen mother will not say anything anymore." ”
Fufeng let out an "um" and didn't speak again.
