Ling Xiaotian's familiar face came into view. His facial features were old, his body shriveled, and his appearance haggard. He looked like a completely different person from the once high-spirited Northern Continent Empire's Palace Master.
Looking at the face that had aged because of him, Su Yu's heart was filled with warmth.
In order to extend his future, to create a tomorrow for him, and to save his life, Ling Xiaotian had sacrificed himself to pass on the Bloodline of the Evil Ghost to Su Yu, giving him a new beginning in life.
As for him, he had aged and died.
Su Yu silently took out all of the crystals from his space ring and placed them all into the dragon-shaped coffin.
The dragon-shaped coffin silently absorbed the Vital Energy, slowly releasing a special energy that entered Ling Xiaotian's body.
His shriveled body began to fill up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he regained his luster.
His old face also gradually regained its human color, and his handsome facial features reappeared. However, his head of white hair could no longer return to its former state.
His eyelids twitched, and a pair of deep black eyes slowly opened.
"Palace Master Ling," Su Yu called out softly. The moment he opened his eyes, the shackles binding his heart were finally released.
The feeling of being relieved of a heavy burden turned into a smile and gratification that bloomed on his lips.
Ling Xiaotian was at a loss at first, but he gradually woke up. He had been asleep for a long time, and his speech was unclear. "Yin Yu, you are still alive …"
Although he had been asleep, Ling Xiaotian knew that he had lived for a long time.
He had never thought that he would see the light of day again.
Su Yu nodded, and with a smile, he told him everything that had happened in the past three years, from the vengeful Black Snow Devil King to the current Heavenly Law Alliance Master.
After listening to him, Ling Xiaotian, who had completely recovered, let out a long sigh. He looked at Su Yu with an indescribable emotion.
"Back then, I had only kept my promise. As long as I was alive, I would protect you. I never thought that you would become the Heavenly Law Alliance Master." His words were filled with emotion. There was admiration for Su Yu, pride for his achievements, and helplessness for Su Yu leaving the Empire of Darkness to become the Heavenly Law Alliance Master.
His heart was still filled with the Empire of Darkness, even though he had almost died there.
"Palace Master, I will set off for the Empire of Darkness now. The grudge between me and the Empire of Darkness has been settled. Please be at ease," Su Yu said, seeing through his thoughts.
As expected, a relaxed expression appeared on Ling Xiaotian's face. "That's good. Since that's the case, you should make a move quickly. I'll leave the northern continent to you."
Su Yu nodded. "Elder Jiu and Palace Master Ling, please help me take care of Phoenix Master Qiu and Lord Yi Yu. I will surely return within three days."
Elder Jiu nodded. "Yes, there is no need to worry. Lord Yi Yu is only unconscious, but her life is not in danger. She should be fine. As for Phoenix Master Qiu, although her injuries have stabilized, she still needs some special elixirs. I don't have them with me, but the headquarters of the empire should have them. When you borrow the troops, you can ask for them."
Over the past ten days, he had managed to stabilize Phoenix Master Qiu's condition with the help of resources, but her life was still in danger.
"These are the elixirs that you need to take with you. Take them all and remember to bring them back." Elder Jiu tossed a jade pendant over.
Su Yu caught it in his hand and scanned it. He was able to see its contents clearly.
"Phoenix Tail Purple Fire Pill, Peerless Moon Fall Pill … Alright, I got it." Su Yu muttered softly. "I'll take my leave first."
After he spoke, Su Yu flew away.
"What a powerful soul energy!" Su Yu's seemingly casual actions shocked Elder Jiu. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Ling Xiaotian, who was beside him, clasped his hands behind his back and looked in the direction that Su Yu had left. He wore a benevolent smile as he spoke meaningfully, "Elder Jiu, now that things have come to this, do you still want to hide your identity?"
His words were abrupt. According to their seniority and abilities, Ling Xiaotian was just a small fry in front of Elder Jiu, yet he still dared to speak to him in such a manner.
Elder Jiu squinted his eyes. "Oh? Who are you? Are you really just a Palace Master of the northern continent's empire? "
Ling Xiaotian turned around and looked at Elder Jiu. He was calm and composed, as if he wasn't afraid of Elder Jiu at all. He then said calmly, "Elder Jiu, it would be better if you don't know who I am. After all, you might get yourself killed if you do."
His words were filled with killing intent, which made one's heart shudder.
At this moment, Ling Xiaotian seemed like he had changed from a person who was on the brink of death to a completely different person. He was mysterious and strange, completely unlike Ling Xiaotian.
"Who are you?" Elder Jiu's expression changed as if he was facing a great enemy.
Ling Xiaotian looked at him with a sharp and profound gaze. "I already said that it wouldn't do you any good if you knew.
You just need to know that I don't have any evil intentions. "
Elder Jiu's eyes flickered, and he only calmed down after a long while. "Okay, I don't have any evil intentions in hiding my identity. I just want to protect myself."
"I hope that's the case. Su Yu is very important to me, and if he dies, no one can save you." Ling Xiaotian left behind these words calmly before he flew away.
However, before he left, his gaze passed by Elder Jiu and fell on Phoenix Master Qiu. He then said calmly, "Phoenix Master Qiu's injuries are no small matter. If I'm not mistaken, she was attacked by an All Creation Old Monster. You should take care of yourself and remind Su Yu that I don't want him to die just like this."
An All Creation Old Monster? Elder Jiu turned his head around in shock and stared at Phoenix Master Qiu. He couldn't believe that such a terrifying existence would dare to attack Phoenix Master Qiu.
"Where are you going?" Elder Jiu turned his head around and looked at Ling Xiaotian, who was about to leave.
Ling Xiaotian revealed a mysterious smile. "Tell Su Yu that we will meet again soon."
Elder Jiu looked at Ling Xiaotian's departing back in shock. "Who is he?"
After he pondered this for a long while, he muttered softly, "It is rumored that the northern continent's Yinyu Area is the birthplace of the Empire of Darkness, and it is guarded by a mysterious expert for generations. Could Ling Xiaotian be that mysterious expert?"
Su Yu, who was unaware of this, landed in the backyard.
In the yard, Xianer was sitting under the shade of a tree. She was holding five fiery-red feathers in her hands, and her face was filled with seriousness as she observed them carefully. It seemed like there were mysterious words carved on them.
At this moment, a shadow fell on the feathers, and when Xianer raised her head, she saw a familiar face.
"Brother Su Yu." Xianer immediately revealed a cute smile, and two swirls appeared on her cheeks.
"What are you looking at?" Su Yu squatted down and pulled her into his embrace.
Xianer blushed, but she obediently lay in his embrace and leaned her head on his shoulder. She blew her fragrant breath into Su Yu's ear and said, "It's a feather left for me in the Fairy King's ruins. It seems like there's a medical technique on it, but I don't understand it. Brother Su Yu, please help me comprehend it."
Medical technique? Su Yu glanced at it, and his expression became slightly unnatural.
It was an extremely rare medical technique, and it was unexpectedly used to treat people whose Dantians had been destroyed.
Everyone knew that once one's Dantian was destroyed, one's cultivation would be crippled.
Su Yu was quite knowledgeable, but he had never heard that a destroyed Dantian could be treated.
However, the treatment method was quite strange.
This technique required a large amount of Primordial Yin, which was combined with the Fairy King's Liquid to reconstruct the Dantian. Moreover, the reconstructed Dantian would be much larger than an ordinary person's Dantian.
"It's really strange that such a treatment method exists in this world." Su Yu clicked his tongue in wonder.
"Ah! Brother Su Yu, how did you manage to understand it so quickly? Why can't I understand it?" Xianer pouted and wore a defeated look on her face.
Su Yu smiled and stroked her head. "Hehe, you will understand it when you grow up."
This technique involved dual cultivation between a man and a woman, so it would be strange if she could understand it.
"Xianer isn't young anymore." Xianer puffed up her cheeks and glared at Su Yu angrily. She looked quite adorable.
Su Yu was slightly startled as he looked at her mature face. She had really grown up.
"Xianer, if you have time, please take care of Phoenix Master Qiu and Lord Yi Yu. I will go out for a while, but I will come back soon," Su Yu said.
Xianer understood Su Yu's current situation, so she obediently nodded her head. "Alright, brother Su Yu, I will be fine if I'm alone. Oh, by the way, brother Su Yu, sister Yi Yu, oh no, sister Jingyu has something for me to pass to you. "
Xianer took out a book from her pocket. It was the Starry Sky Heavenly Book.
In the Dragon Abyss of the Nine Underworlds, Xia Jingyu had asked Xianer to pass it to Su Yu.
Unfortunately, Su Yu had only just met Qin Xianer now.
"What is this?" Su Yu asked curiously as he took it. It seemed like this book had been with Xianer for some time.
What did Xia Jingyu want to pass to Su Yu at that time?
Su Yu was curious, so he tried to open it. However, he discovered that this heavenly book was a refined divine artifact, and it contained a wisp of its master's will.
Su Yu could rely on his powerful soul to erase the will that Xia Jingyu had left behind, but it would harm Xia Jingyu.
"This was given to me by sister Jingyu when she saved me in the Dragon Abyss of the Nine Underworlds. At that time, she sacrificed herself to save me. I didn't expect that sister Yi Yu was actually sister Jingyu. It's no wonder that she saved me." Xianer was still moved by Su Yu's words.
Su Yu was startled. The will in the book would disappear along with the death of its master.
At that time, Xia Jingyu had been prepared to die, so she had decided to pass this book to Su Yu.
What was in the book that was so important that Xia Jingyu would entrust it to him before her death?
"Okay, I will accept it. When Xia Jingyu wakes up, I will ask her directly." Su Yu nodded, then kissed Xianer's forehead. "Xianer, wait for me. I will come back soon."
Xianer's face became flushed, and she shyly waved at Su Yu as he left.
Su Yu turned around and looked at the petite figure that was standing in the sunset, waving goodbye to him. His heart was moved.
She had always been by his side, and she had always placed him in the most important position in her heart. She was so weak and small, and she needed to be protected.
After four years of trials and tribulations, it was time for them to settle their relationship.
"Xianer, wait for me to come back. Once the continent's matters are settled, I will give you an explanation for our engagement." Su Yu smiled as he made up his mind.
