After successfully killing the Sky Wolf Guard, Xiao Chen felt as if his body was about to fall apart. After swallowing several healing pills, Xiao Chen struggled to walk towards the place where Bai Ruyue was hiding.
He didn't dare to stay here for too long, because Xiao Chen knew that it wouldn't be long before the other Sky Wolf Guards arrived. He had to take his mother to a safe place before then and completely shake off the pursuit of the Sky Wolf Guards.
Because of this, even though Xiao Chen was seriously injured, he didn't have time to waste.
Dragging his heavily injured body, his entire left arm still didn't have the slightest bit of strength. It hung down powerlessly. Worried about Bai Ruyue's safety, Xiao Chen didn't stop and directly went to the place where Bai Ruyue was hiding.
Remembering Xiao Chen's instructions before he left, Bai Ruyue didn't leave the place even though she was extremely worried. It wasn't until Xiao Chen appeared in front of her that Bai Ruyue hurriedly went forward and hugged Xiao Chen.
"Chen 'er …" Knowing that Xiao Chen had lost the Sky Wolf Guard who was chasing after them, Bai Ruyue couldn't calm down at all when she thought of Xiao Chen wanting to kill a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator with a Dao Querying Realm cultivation. She was afraid that Xiao Chen would never return. In fact, Bai Ruyue had already decided that if something happened to Xiao Chen, she definitely wouldn't be able to live.
She had been anxiously waiting for Xiao Chen's appearance. Now that she finally saw Xiao Chen, Bai Ruyue's heart was completely at ease. However, when she saw Xiao Chen's heavily injured body, Bai Ruyue couldn't help but feel pain.
Xiao Chen's current injuries made Bai Ruyue tremble in fear. Just based on these injuries, it wasn't difficult to determine what kind of battle Xiao Chen had just experienced.
"Chen 'er, are you alright? Mom … Mom …" Bai Ruyue said with heartache while checking Xiao Chen's body.
Looking at the tearful Bai Ruyue, Xiao Chen forced a smile and said, "Mother, it's alright. Didn't I come back alive? It's alright, Mother. "
In the face of Xiao Chen's consolation, Bai Ruyue forcefully held back the tears in her eyes and nodded heavily. Immediately after, she turned around and bowed. Upon seeing this, Xiao Chen asked in confusion. "Mother, what are you doing?"
"Of course Mother will carry you. Can you still travel like this?" Bai Ruyue said firmly when she saw Xiao Chen's puzzled expression.
Not only Xiao Chen, but Bai Ruyue also knew that the mother and son weren't safe yet. They didn't have much time to rest, so Bai Ruyue planned to carry Xiao Chen on her back and continue their journey.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback, but immediately said with some embarrassment, "Mother, I can walk on my own. You don't have to carry me, I …"
"What are you talking about? Haven't I carried you on my back since you were young? Don't force yourself. Quickly come up." Seeing that Xiao Chen was unwilling, Bai Ruyue immediately shouted.
Without any explanation, Bai Ruyue carried Xiao Chen and ran forward.
Lying on Bai Ruyue's back, the familiar fragrance made Xiao Chen feel inexplicably at ease. The innate fragrance on Bai Ruyue's body was very familiar to Xiao Chen. Unconsciously, the memories of his childhood inexplicably surfaced in his mind.
He vaguely remembered that when he was young, he liked to lie on Bai Ruyue's back. No matter where he went, he wanted his mother to carry him. However, as he slowly grew up, he didn't let his mother carry him anymore. Later on, he went out to cultivate and entered the Eastern Sword Pavilion. As a result, he spent even less time with his mother.
He couldn't help but look at Bai Ruyue. Although Xiao Chen wasn't even thirty years old, he couldn't help but sigh at how time passed so quickly. It was as if yesterday he was still a shocking follower behind his mother, but today he had already grown up and even became the leader of the Heavenly Chen Continent's Ten Prides.
He had grown up. At the same time, Xiao Chen became more and more determined to protect his parents in this life. No matter what price he had to pay, he had to raise his parents' cultivation.
It was hard to imagine how he would feel if Bai Ruyue and Xiao Qing were to leave him one day. It was said that birth, old age, illness, and death were the laws of heaven and earth. However, weren't cultivators going against the heavens? Since he wanted to go against the heavens, why couldn't his parents do the same?
His determination to protect his parents became more and more firm. At the same time, Bai Ruyue's forehead was covered in sweat as she ran. Seeing this, Xiao Chen didn't care that his clothes were already stained with blood. He reached out and gently wiped the sweat off Bai Ruyue's forehead.
Feeling Xiao Chen's action, Bai Ruyue didn't say anything and only smiled. Bai Ruyue had seen Xiao Chen's growth and was proud of him. To have such a son was the proudest thing in Bai Ruyue's life.
Who would have thought that in such a life and death situation, Xiao Chen would actually feel the long-awaited warmth on Bai Ruyue's back. It was an innate warmth that came from a mother's embrace.
Regardless of whether a person was a cultivator or an ordinary person, they all felt the same towards their mother. Even though Xiao Chen's cultivation far surpassed Bai Ruyue's, in Xiao Chen's heart, Bai Ruyue's embrace would always be his warmest harbor.
After running for an entire day, Xiao Chen and Bai Ruyue finally stopped to rest. After running for an entire day and night, Bai Ruyue was also quite tired. At this moment, after swallowing a healing pill, she closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing.
As for Xiao Chen, the injuries on his body were even more severe. Therefore, taking advantage of this rare time to rest, Xiao Chen naturally began to heal his injuries wholeheartedly.
In a day's time, the mother and son had already run very far. Moreover, the Sky Wolf Guard that had chased them before had already been eliminated by Xiao Chen. In addition, along the way, under Xiao Chen's command, Bai Ruyue had also carefully erased all traces of the two of them. Therefore, at this very moment, the Sky Wolf Guard would definitely not be able to find the two of them in a short amount of time.
After all, after losing all traces of them in the boundless mountains, wanting to find the two of them was practically no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
After resting for around four hours, Xiao Chen was the first to open his eyes. Looking at the time, it was about time to set off. This time, Xiao Chen took the initiative to walk before Bai Ruyue and crouch down. Seeing this, just as Bai Ruyue was about to speak, Xiao Chen spoke first.
"Mother, let your son carry you in the future. Your son has already grown up."
He didn't give Bai Ruyue a chance to refuse at all. In addition, after a day of rest, although Xiao Chen's injuries hadn't completely healed, there was no problem for him to travel. It was just that his speed was much slower than when he was at his peak.
