2497 Side Story 1: Help Her Back
Cen Yi instructed the Thirteen Yue Guards to clean up the endgame.
Medicinal mountain.
Xiao Ba waved at Shi Fang. “Shi Fang.”
Shi Fang walked over. “Eighth Sister?”
Xiao Ba smiled charmingly. “Do you see this medicinal mountain?”
Shi Fang nodded.
“For the next month, I’ll leave the plowing and weeding to you.”
Shi Fang’s face stiffened. “All—all of them?”
“That’s right!” Xiao Ba blinked. “Didn’t you always complain that the mountain I gave you was too small in the past? Now, I’ll leave these to you!”
Shi Fang’s neck stiffened as he looked around. This is… huge! Won’t I be exhausted if I do it by myself?!
“Eighth Sister—” He tried to struggle and gestured with two fingers. “You’re in charge of this medicinal mountain after all. I-I’m not suitable! Just give me a little—really!”
“Ah—” Xiao Ba suddenly held her waist and bent down slightly, her glabella revealing a hint of pain.
Shi Fang immediately became nervous. “Eighth Sister? What’s wrong?”
Xiao Ba waved her hand. “N-nothing. It’s just that I was ambushed by Shu Jing when I was passing the life-and-death challenge previously, and I was slightly injured. It’s fine…”
“Huh? Eighth Sister, you should hurry up and rest then!” Shi Fang felt very ashamed. The few of us returned late because we had been guarding Peach Blossom Dock. Now that I think about it, Eighth Sister and the others must’ve suffered a lot.
With that, he looked at Xiao Ba’s waist.
Although she was holding her waist, he could still vaguely see that there was indeed a large bruise with blood spots.
“Eighth Sister, I’m afraid your injuries will take a long time to recover. Let them help you back!”
Xiao Ba immediately refused. “There’s no need.”
However, Shi Fang was very insistent. He looked in the direction of the Fantasy Divine Hall and shouted, “Sister Shiyi, Sister Shi’er! Eighth Sister is injured! Come over and help!”
At this moment, on the Holy Jade of Chaos, the evil spirit had already been burned to ashes by the flames. Even the last spark was annihilated.
Only the top of 13 white jade pillars were left. The hot and bright flames burned quietly.
The Celestial Shield had already been completely embedded back into it and returned to its original appearance. However, there were still two sword marks in the middle—they naturally came from Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu.
Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi’er were standing at the side.
“Ah, the lines on it are all smudged in a few places.” Lady Shi’er leaned closer to take a look and muttered softly with heartache.
Lady Shiyi took out two carving knives and handed one over. “Since we’re back, we’ll slowly repair it in the future.”
The Holy Jade of Chaos was the key to refining holy weapons. The power of the Divine Master could only be transformed into holy fire through it.
The Celestial Shield piece was the core.
Previously, the Celestial Shield had been forcefully hacked away by Rong Xiu. On the one hand, it was to use the power contained within to reconstruct Peach Blossom Dock and connect that Dao Gate Realm to the Fantasy Divine Palace. On the other hand, he wanted to send it to Chu Liuyue. After all, it was hers to begin with.
The reason why the evil spirit didn’t stop it was that its divine power couldn’t transform into holy flames.
Without the Celestial Shield, the power that the Holy Jade of Chaos could convert was greatly reduced. This also allowed the evil spirit to maintain the holy fire as long as it used a little red-gold heavenly phoenix bloodline power.
Previously, when Lady Shiyi said that the Holy Jade of Chaos was just a scrap, it was naturally related to the missing Celestial Shield. But when the Celestial Shield returned, it was different.
Lady Shi’er was about to repair it when she heard Shi Fang’s voice.
She looked up and glanced in that direction, then lowered her head to look at the Holy Jade of Chaos. She couldn’t help but reach out and touch it gently, her expression conflicted. How many years has it been before I finally touched it again… Although I also feel sorry for Eighth Sister, it doesn’t seem… so serious that she can’t walk?
Lady Shiyi suddenly handed her a small stool. “You don’t have to care about him.”
Lady Shi’er said, “But Eighth Sister—”
Before Lady Shi’er could finish speaking, she saw her sister turn to look at Yan Qing, who was standing in the distance. She shouted, “Eighth Brother-in-Law, help Eighth Sister!”
With that, she didn’t care about Yan Qing’s expression and moved a second stool over. She sat on the other side and began to repair the Holy Jade of Chaos.
This shout was really not low-key. Everyone heard it.
Countless eyes looked at Yan Qing in unison.
Shi Fang and Xiao Ba also heard it.
Shi Fang was shocked. “Eighth Brother-in-Law?! Eighth Sister, when were you and Left Divine General a pair?!”
Why don’t I know?!
Xiao Ba was speechless. I’m really tired. How many times have I explained this?!
She gritted her teeth. “…I can walk by myself!”
Yu Mo clicked his tongue and nudged Yan Qing with his elbow. “Hey, hey! You’ve been summoned!”
Yan Qing’s expression didn’t change, but he recalled the conversation between Xiao Ba and Qi Han before entering the Fantasy Divine Hall.
His feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. He wanted to explain that they had nothing to do with each other, but the words couldn’t come out.
Yu Mo looked at him in disdain. “No way! Brother, your wife is injured, but your heart doesn’t ache?! Are you a man?”
Yan Qing finally gazed at him coldly.
Yu Mo tactfully took a step back. “Ahem, I’m doing this for your own good… Miss Xiao Ba has regained her memory now. Then, the person you lied to previously was the real Eighth Deity… Aren’t you going to apologize?”
Yan Qing pursed his thin lips and finally walked over.
…
When he arrived at the medicinal mountain, Xiao Ba was about to leave.
She couldn’t be bothered to argue with Shi Fang. She waved her hand lazily and said weakly, “Forget it, forget it… One false step brings everlasting grief… I’ll leave myself…”
Of all people, Yan Qing?!
She recalled that she had asked Yan Qing about the Left Divine General previously. She really wanted to die!
Shi Fang looked at her with a complicated gaze. “Eighth Sister, if you don’t like the Left Divine General, why… You also know that he’s extremely old-fashioned. Now that he’s called Eighth Brother-in-Law, how will he live in the Fantasy Divine Palace in the future?”
Xiao Ba: ???
“But Eighth Sister, don’t worry. I’m still on your side! You’re already so seriously injured, but he still hasn’t come! It’s too much! There’s nothing to miss about such a man!”
The corners of Xiao Ba’s eyes twitched, and she raised her hand to cover his mouth. “You—”
As soon as she raised her hand, someone suddenly held it.
She turned back with a look of shock.
Yan Qing was holding her wrist. “You’re injured. You shouldn’t be angry.”
He paused and wanted to let go, but when he lowered his gaze and saw the wound on her waist, he didn’t let go. “I’ll send you back.”
…
On the other side, Tuan Zi patted the clothes on her body and carefully kept Zi Chen’s soul.
Because his injuries were too serious, Zi Chen’s body was destroyed, leaving only his soul, and he fell into a deep sleep.
Then, Tuan Zi turned around and walked in another direction.
Mu Qinghe was already dead. Hong Yao was leaning on his shoulder.
When Tuan Zi came in front of Hong Yao, her heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of Hong Yao’s eyes.
It was already cold.
Tuan Zi’s eyes turned red as she looked at Hong Yao.
Tears fell.
