Thoughts surged out like a tide. Chu Chen could no longer control his turbulent state of mind. He suddenly let out an ear-piercing cry and turned into a dazzling silver light that shot down like lightning!
Whoosh!
The sound of an eagle's cry came from the nine heavens. This scene startled Ling Xuan, who was pacing back and forth.
However, when she saw the dazzling silver light descending from the sky, a gentle look appeared on her face.
"Xiao Ying, you've grown up."
A cold and indifferent voice echoed in the air. When Chu Chen heard this, his nose twitched and he almost shed tears.
He had been very worried about her for so many days. After all, a broken dao heart was fatal for any cultivator. Now that he saw her standing in front of him, unscathed, the happiness that came from all directions was indescribable.
Chu Chen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't. On one hand, he was too excited and didn't know what to say. On the other hand, Chu Chen was afraid that if he suddenly spoke, he would scare Ling Xuan. For a moment, he could only stand there and stare at her in a daze.
After not seeing her for so many days, he could clearly feel that Ling Xuan had lost a lot of weight. Her delicate body under the black robe was even more slender and moving.
However, the aura on her body was very condensed and pure. Pure demonic spiritual energy flowed endlessly in her body, emitting a vast fluctuation.
Clearly, during this period of time, Ling Xuan had once again found her original cultivation heart. Moreover, after her Dao heart was broken, her original heart was even purer, and her cultivation had already reached a whole new level.
This made Chu Chen feel a lot more at ease and he let out a long sigh of relief.
"Xiao Ying, I missed you."
Ling Xuan had always been a person of few words. When she looked at the tall silver eagle in front of her, her usually cold and emotionless eyes revealed a rare trace of exhaustion. It was the kind of expression that one would only reveal when they saw the person they trusted the most.
The witch raised her head and looked into the eagle's eyes. She saw friendliness and gentleness in those golden eyes, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled slightly.
In an instant, it was as if hundreds of flowers had bloomed in the void. The brilliance was beyond compare.
In Chu Chen's memory, Ling Xuan almost never smiled. This woman had always been so cold, arrogant, indifferent, and overflowing with killing intent.
It was like a proud and aloof black lotus quietly living in its own world, allowing the outside world to change.
However, it was precisely because she didn't smile that her smile at this moment was especially beautiful and charming. That fleeting smile even stunned Chu Chen for a moment.
"It's good to see you."
Amidst the soft light, the cold and self-reliant girl suddenly seemed to have lost all support and fell into Chu Chen's arms.
The girl leaned against Chu Chen. Her cheeks touched the hard, bright silver feathers, which spread into a comfortable ripple. "I'm tired, Xiao Ying. Protect me."
Chu Chen nodded gently, his eyes full of determination. The witch had encountered too many things and had been bitterly holding on by herself. When she saw Xiao Ying again, she was able to completely relax and return to the appearance of a young girl of her age.
Looking at the tired girl leaning into his arms, Chu Chen stood straight and didn't dare to move. He was really afraid that if he moved, he would make her feel uncomfortable.
The night in the mountains was a little cold. The cold wind blew the girl's black robe, making her cold and thin figure even more distressing.
Chu Chen quietly spread one of his wings in front of him to block the cold wind. The wide wings instantly formed a quiet space, exuding an overflowing sense of security.
The silent snuggling continued for a long time. Only then did Ling Xuan get up from Chu Chen's arms. Seeing the somewhat comical giant silver eagle standing straight and not daring to move, a gentle expression flashed across the girl's eyes. "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Chu Chen nodded and slightly folded his stiff wings.
After evolving once again, the giant silver eagle was much taller than an adult. Therefore, Chu Chen could only look down at Ling Xuan. However, the two of them were very close to each other, so the moment he lowered his head, Chu Chen's gaze involuntarily slid down the girl's black robe's collar, sinking into the plump, round, and snow-white peaks.
Chu Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva and hurriedly looked away.
Even with his current temperament, he still felt his face turn red. Fortunately, he was currently in the form of a giant silver eagle. Even if he blushed, no one would be able to tell. Otherwise, it would be very embarrassing.
However, at this moment, Ling Xuan did not notice the abnormality of the giant eagle beside her. She gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. Her ink-black hair softly rested on her translucent jade-white ear, revealing a soul-stirring beauty.
"Last time, you were the one who made that sound in the Far North … Although I don't know how you did it, I can tell that it was indeed your voice."
While speaking, the witch reached out her hand. Her snow-white, slender fingers gently touched the hard feathers that seemed to be made of silver.
"Fortunately, your eagle cry in the dark woke me up and saved me. It's so good to have you … Now, you're the only person I care about and rely on in this world. Therefore, nothing must happen to you."
"You saved me. Now, I have to save myself."
In the cool night wind, the cold and aloof young girl's beautiful face gradually revealed a trace of unswerving determination.
"Although Daoist Ku Xin is very powerful, I won't sit still and wait for death. It's said that the ancient road from the Ancient Netherworld Forest to the Yin Mountain Secret Realm is about to open. There should be some secret treasures or cultivation methods that will be of great use to me. I hope that this time, I can come back safe and sound … Goodbye. "
The girl was a decisive person. After saying all this, she waved her sleeves and wanted to rush into the distance.
Seeing this scene, Chu Chen was shocked. He hurriedly leaped in front of Ling Xuan, and with a swoosh, spread out two huge wings to block her.
His sharp eagle eyes revealed a trace of eagerness. Ling Xuan was slightly stunned. "You mean … you want to come with me?"
Since the first time they met, Ling Xuan could understand his meaning through the giant eagle's eyes. Therefore, although Chu Chen now had the ability to speak, he still used his eyes to communicate with Ling Xuan so that Ling Xuan wouldn't feel distant.
"No!"
Seeing the eagerness in the giant eagle's eyes, Ling Xuan frowned slightly. "The Yin Mountain Secret Realm is too dangerous. Not only are there many evil and demonic experts gathered there, there are also some necromancy monsters that were raised by the ancient Yin Emperor. It's too dangerous. "
Two huge wings stopped her.
His sharp eagle eyes revealed a trace of eagerness. Ling Xuan was slightly stunned. "You mean … you want to come with me?"
Since the first time they met, Ling Xuan could understand his meaning through the giant eagle's eyes. Therefore, although Chu Chen now had the ability to speak, he still used his eyes to communicate with Ling Xuan so that Ling Xuan wouldn't feel distant.
"No!"
