When Ji Dong gradually regained consciousness, he realized that he was in a cave. Lying there, he could see the entrance of the cave that was illuminated by sunlight.
The cave entrance was only four to five meters away from where he was lying. The entrance was slightly downwards, so even if it was raining outside, no water would flow into the cave.
With just a slight movement of his body, Ji Dong couldn't help but groan. Intense pain instantly spread throughout his body, causing him to spasm.
Ever since he obtained the Phoenix-Dance Dragon-Snake Transformation, this could be said to be the most serious injury Ji Dong had ever suffered. In the past, he would at most overdraft his mana, but this time, he was truly injured. The meridians in his body were in a mess, and many of them were damaged. His qi and blood were both weak. The Chaos Bead helped him absorb the mana from the outside world, but the obstruction in his meridians caused him to be unable to circulate the mana at all. Too much mana brought harm to his meridians, making them even more congested. If he wanted to recover from his injuries, he had to open up all his meridians.
Ji Dong didn't rashly circulate the mana in his body. Not only his body, but his soul vortex was also unprecedentedly weak. Before the Three-legged Golden Crow died, it had ignited its soul power. Even though Ji Dong's soul power was much higher than the Three-legged Golden Crow's, he was still greatly injured.
The bottom of his body was soft and even a little warm. He wasn't lying directly on the hard rocks in the cave, but he couldn't feel any signs of life around him. Where was Chen Sixuan? She must have brought him here. In that case, she should be fine. But where did she go?
His body was really too weak, and the recovery of his soul couldn't be achieved by cultivation. He needed to rest and meditate, and in his current state, Ji Dong couldn't even do the most basic meditation.
Fatigue and weakness swept over him, causing him to fall into a deep sleep once again.
When Ji Dong woke up again, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be something soft next to him. A cool feeling constantly came from his side, making him feel exceptionally comfortable. Not only that, but he also realized that his body was much more comfortable than the last time he woke up. It was dry and clean, and even had a faint fragrance. Even his clothes had been changed. It was still the same white shirt with silver embroidery, and even his underwear had been changed.
He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the warmth beside him. He saw Chen Sixuan snuggling in his arms, and he could clearly see the fatigue on her beautiful face.
She didn't leave him at all. She had been taking care of him. She was the third woman who had taken care of him. Before this, only Lan Baoer and the Flaming Bar had taken care of him like this. But even they didn't help him clean his body and change his clothes like this. An indescribable feeling spread in Ji Dong's heart. He couldn't help but recall the situation when their souls were merged when he faced the Three-legged Golden Crow.
He didn't know if he was too conceited or too impulsive. He actually chose to attack when he knew that he was facing a Divine Beast. If it wasn't for Chen Sixuan by his side, with the defense of her Eternal Armor and the support of the Soul Fusion, he was afraid that he would have already died in the Ultimate Yang Fire of the Three-legged Golden Crow. Even now, she was still supporting him. She was lying beside him, and the Yi Wood aura on her body was extremely good for his recovery. When he woke up this time, Ji Dong's body was much more comfortable. At least, his whole body didn't hurt that much anymore.
Why is she so good to me? Ji Dong really didn't understand. If it was said that he thought that Chen Sixuan had some ulterior motives for him in the beginning, then after the Soul Fusion, he could deeply feel the unreserved love in Chen Sixuan's heart. There was no utilitarianism at all, let alone any ulterior motives. But why is this?
Ever since the death of the Flaming Bar, Ji Dong hadn't thought calmly for a long time. After losing the Flaming Bar, he was no longer as calm as he used to be. Otherwise, he wouldn't have attacked the Three-legged Golden Crow this time. In his subconscious, he already had a tendency to destroy himself. Only by destroying himself could he accompany his Flaming Bar.
Although he didn't know why she liked him, Ji Dong had already thought about it. He could only deal with his relationship with Chen Sixuan like how he dealt with Lan Baoer's feelings for him.
At least, the relationship between him and her was still that of a student and a teacher. Ji Dong had already secretly decided to distance himself from her as much as possible in the future. Such a perfect Chen Sixuan, who expressed her love for him without reservation, as long as it was a normal man, he would be moved. Ji Dong didn't want anyone to affect his love for the Flaming Bar. Not to mention falling in love with someone else, even thinking about other women would be disloyal and harmful to the Flaming Bar.
His mental state was much better than the last time he woke up. Ji Dong focused on his inner vision and began to control the Mana in his body. He couldn't move his body easily now. Otherwise, the blocked meridians in his body would become more serious. He had to clear his meridians first.
This would be a long and painful process. Although Ji Dong's body had been modified by the Vermillion Bird, the Winged Serpent, and the Dragon's blood, he was seriously injured this time. Opening his meridians was still a long and arduous process. He couldn't be impatient. Otherwise, one mistake could result in Qi deviation.
Perhaps it was because she felt the change in the Mana in Ji Dong's body, Chen Sixuan woke up with a start. She said, "Ah, Teacher Ji Dong, you're awake?"
Chen Sixuan turned over and sat up. She held Ji Dong's hand with a face full of surprise.
Ji Dong temporarily stopped thinking about opening his meridians. He said with a calm expression, "Where are we?"
Chen Sixuan said, "After the Three-legged Golden Crow self-destructed that day, you were seriously injured. I also couldn't move because of the excessive consumption of Mana. Fortunately, I had the protection of the Eternal Armor. However, it was too difficult for me to recover my Mana in that volcano. I only managed to recover a little after a long time, so I dragged your body down the mountain. You're of the fire attribute, so your recovery speed should be faster in the vicinity of this volcano. It wasn't easy to find this cave, so I pulled you in to rest. You've been unconscious for five days. Fortunately, the fire element here is abundant. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll need a longer time to recover. Since you're awake, use the Soul Fusion method again. That way, you'll be able to better control your Mana to break through the blocked meridians. "
Ji Dong said with some surprise, "You know that my meridians are blocked?"
Chen Sixuan smiled slightly. Her beautiful face dazzled Ji Dong. She said, "Teacher, don't forget that I'm a Wood Magician. Healing is the specialty of our Wood element. Oh, do you want to drink some water? The spring water I got is very pure. As she spoke, Chen Sixuan took a small basin from the side and a small cup from her storage magic tool. She scooped half a cup and carefully brought it to Ji Dong's mouth.
His parched throat was moistened by the clear spring water. A clear stream flowed down his throat. The comfortable feeling made Ji Dong feel refreshed. He was inexplicably touched. Mt. Ahmansi had just erupted not long ago. Wherever the magma passed, no river water would be left behind. Chen Sixuan had to travel at least a few hundred miles to get this spring water. The water she used to wash his body and the water he was drinking now were all things she had spent a lot of effort to find. He didn't see her the last time he woke up. She must have gone to find water.
After drinking a cup of spring water, Ji Dong felt much better. He said, "I can break through the blocked meridians by myself. You should cultivate to recover your Mana first. In your current state, even if you want to help me, you won't be able to.
Chen Sixuan was very tired. Although Mt. Ahmansi was for Ji Dong to recover, it was extremely unsuitable for her wood element. Ji Dong had been unconscious for five days, and she had taken care of him for five days. It was because she was extremely tired that she had fallen asleep in Ji Dong's arms.
Chen Sixuan nodded her head lightly and revealed a sweet smile. She said, "Teacher Ji Dong, are you concerned about me?"
Ji Dong frowned and said, "Shouldn't a teacher care about their students?"
Chen Sixuan giggled and said, "I should, of course I should. Then I'll rest for a while. You continue to break through the meridians. But don't be too hasty. When your body recovers, I'll give you a surprise."
As she said that, she unceremoniously lay back down in her original position. She even used her hands to cover her ears. Clearly, she wasn't going to listen to Ji Dong's rejection. She looked too cute.
Ji Dong was slightly stunned. In the end, he didn't say anything. Even if he wanted to reject her, he had to wait until their bodies recovered.
… …
Blazing Academy.
"You said that Princess Xuan and Ji Dong are together? Are you sure? "Zhurong sat behind his desk and asked in a low voice.
Xuanyuan Xin nodded with a serious face, "Dean, it's all because of my poor coordination that led to such a serious accident. I'm afraid we won't be able to explain to the Eastern Wood Empire's imperial family about Princess Xuan!"
"Explain what? What is there to explain? "Zhurong glanced at him and said with a smile.
Xuanyuan Xin stared blankly. He felt strange when he reported to Zhurong. When Zhurong heard that Princess Xuan died in the volcano, he was also very surprised. But when he heard that Chen Sixuan was together with Ji Dong, Zhurong's expression relaxed, as if he didn't care about Princess Xuan's life or death.
"Dean, Princess Xuan is Emperor Toumu's most beloved daughter, and also his only daughter. I'm afraid this matter … …" Although Xuanyuan Xin loathed Ji Dong, he was still apprehensive about Princess Xuan's mishap. Facing the eruption of the volcano, only two out of a hundred people had perished in the sea of fire. This should have been something to rejoice over. After all, most of the enemies had escaped, but Chen Sixuan's identity was too sensitive. If the Toumu Empire wanted to investigate, this matter wouldn't be a simple matter of the academy's internal affairs. It should be known that when Princess Xuan came, she was escorted by an Annihilation War God and a hundred-man Annihilation Legion. Not to mention the Toumu Empire's reaction, just this Annihilation Legion was enough to cause trouble for Blazing Academy.
Zhurong slowly stood up from behind his desk and walked to Xuanyuan Xin. "Professor Xuanyuan, you don't need to worry about this. I will handle it myself. First of all, whether Princess Xuan is really dead or not, even if something really happened to her, it was just an accident. This is the Southern Fire Empire, not the Eastern Wood Empire. Even if there's a problem, I'm here. Overall, this trial is still a success. The volcano eruption is something that can't be helped. Go back and summarize the results of this trial. We still have to carry out the commendation ceremony that we promised the students. Let's hold the commendation ceremony and award ceremony in ten days. Tell the new students that the academy will hold a special reception for them. The alcohol ban will be temporarily lifted on that day.
"Ah?" Xuanyuan Xin looked at Zhurong in a daze. He sincerely admired Zhurong from the bottom of his heart. Facing such a situation, Xuanyuan Xin couldn't be as calm as a mountain.
Zhu Rong continued, "If other teachers ask about this, just tell them that the academy will take care of this. Don't say anything else. If people from the Eastern Wood Empire come to ask about this, tell them to come to me directly. Go do your work. "
"Yes." Seeing that Zhurong was so sure, Xuanyuan Xin finally let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and left Zhurong's office.
Watching Xuanyuan Xin leave, Zhurong showed a trace of a smile on his face. If it was some other kind of natural disaster, it wouldn't be a big deal. But the eruption of a volcano wouldn't hurt Ji Dong at all. He had the extreme dual fire. Even if his body was soaked in lava, he wouldn't have any problems. As long as Princess Xuan was with him, he wouldn't be afraid of any danger. Even if he ran into a situation that he couldn't face, with Ji Dong's flying ability, he would be able to escape.
Chen Sixuan chose Ji Dong as soon as she entered the academy, so Ji Dong became the head teacher of the first class. Of course, Zhurong knew that this was a good thing. Because of Flaming Bar's death, Ji Dong had suffered a great emotional trauma. This Princess Xuan was as beautiful as Flaming Bar. She was a real human being, and a princess of the Eastern Wood Empire. In Zhurong's eyes, it wasn't a matter of whether Ji Dong was a good match for Chen Sixuan or not. Instead, Chen Sixuan was a good match for his precious disciple. He was happy to see Chen Sixuan in Ji Dong's class, because he hoped that Ji Dong could gradually walk out of the pain because of Princess Xuan.
However, it had already been ten days since the eruption of the volcano. Xuanyuan Xin had already brought the students back, so why hadn't there been any news from Ji Dong? He should be back by now. Ji Dong was willing to let Princess Xuan stay behind to help him on Almans Mountain. It seemed that their relationship had improved. Brat, hurry up and recover. What you need is the entire continent.
