"Ming Xi, Ming Yu!" Ye Zhen woke up from her dream, looking around in horror. She could still hear the cries of two children. Gasping for air, she realized she was still in the space.
"What's wrong?" Little Phoenix flew over and perched on her knee.
Panting, Ye Zhen looked up at it. "I dreamt of Ming Xi and Ming Yu."
She dreamed that Ming Xi had been brought to some unknown place, her surroundings dark. She seemed to be able to feel him calling out to her. She also dreamed that because Ming Yu couldn't see her, she cried all day to leave the palace, crying until her heart was about to break in her dreams.
"What were you thinking back then? Why did you follow them to the Xuantian Continent? What if you can't go back?" Little Phoenix whispered, feeling pity for Ye Zhen. She didn't know that the gap to the human world had closed. Who knew how long it would take for it to open again.
Ye Zhen's mouth pulled out a bitter smile. "I watched helplessly as Ming Xi was taken away by Qiu Hen. Can I still remain indifferent?"
"What about Ming Yu?" Little Phoenix asked.
"Ah Zhan … will take good care of her." Ye Zhen said. Only by comforting herself like this could she restrain herself from missing Ming Yu.
Little Phoenix blurted out, "What if Mo Rongzhan also comes to the Xuantian Continent? Then Mingyu will be alone. "
Ye Zhen looked at Little Phoenix in a daze. "Why did he come to the Xuantian Continent? I didn't see him in the space … "
"I … I mean if. Have you never thought of this possibility?" Little Phoenix would rather she stay in the human world. That way, she wouldn't be hurt by Emperor Mo.
"No!" Ye Zhen had never thought that Mo Rongzhan would come here. He must still be thinking of ways to find her.
Little Phoenix sighed in her heart. It was just as she had guessed. That was why she didn't think Emperor Mo was Mo Rongzhan.
"Qiu Hui met Mo Rongzhan in the human world." Ye Zhen whispered. "He said that Mo Rongzhan is Emperor Mo's clone. If Ah Zhan comes here, what will happen when he meets Emperor Mo?"
The doppelganger would merge with the original body, and Mo Rongzhan's emotions and memories in the human world would be absorbed by Emperor Mo. It was not something that Emperor Mo could lock or reject just because he wanted to.
Little Fire Phoenix really wanted to tell the truth, but Emperor Mo's threat was still lingering in its mind. It didn't want to spend so much time being reborn again.
"I don't know." Little Fire Phoenix lowered her head, not daring to look at Ye Zhen's eyes.
"As long as you don't become the same person …" Ye Zhen smiled, but it should be impossible. After all, they were two different people.
Little Fire Phoenix didn't dare to say anything more. It fluttered to the other side and said in a muffled voice, "You should go out quickly. It's already dark outside."
Ye Zhen looked at her hands. She didn't know how long she had cultivated yesterday. She felt that her whole body was much lighter and fell asleep unconsciously. When she woke up today, it seemed that she was different from yesterday. Her Qi Sea had become more solid.
It was indeed daybreak outside. The sun was gradually rising on the opposite side of the mountain, and the air was cool and refreshing.
"Miss Ye." Duan Jingshu came over from the other side, looking at Ye Zhen with a smile in his eyes.
"Uncle Duan." Ye Zhen bowed. Only Duan Jingshu came to see her. It seemed that Ye Muxin was in seclusion.
"Muxin was injured. Elder Shan Ze asked her to go into seclusion to heal. If Miss Ye needs anything, you can come to me." Duan Jingshu handed a wooden token to Ye Zhen. "This is the pass of the Great Sage Sect. Only with this can you enter and leave freely and come to me."
Ye Zhen needed this. "Thank you, Uncle Duan."
"Sister Tang sent a message. She should be here in two days. She asked me to send you to Mount Xingyun first." Duan Jingshu said.
The Supreme Grand Master lived on Mount Xingyun.
"Alright." Ye Zhen nodded gently. Although she read books and cultivated very quickly, she had never actually practiced. Most importantly, she had a cauldron but no fire.
Little Fire Phoenix couldn't refine fire for her yet.
"Then … come with me. It's far from Mount Xingyun." Duan Jingshu said.
"Alright, please wait a moment. I'll pack." Ye Zhen nodded. She hoped that someone could teach her. She wanted to go to the Great Sage Sect. If Chou Hen returned to the Xuantian Continent, he would definitely go to the Great Sage Sect.
"Big Brother Duan, why are you here?" Xu Xiayin's voice was filled with surprise. She didn't expect to see Duan Jingshu here so early in the morning.
Duan Jingshu said helplessly, "You should call me Uncle Master."
"You're only a few years older than me, and … I'm used to calling you that." Xu Xiayin said softly. She had known Duan Jingshu since she was young, so even though there was a gap in seniority between them, she didn't change the way she addressed him.
She didn't want to change the way she addressed him either.
Duan Jingshu smiled helplessly. He looked up and saw Ye Zhen walk out of the room.
The morning sun that had just broken through the clouds shone on her body, illuminating her with a faint halo. It made her skin even more lustrous like jade, especially her clear and bright eyes, unforgettable.
"Uncle Duan, I can go now." Ye Zhen walked over and whispered to Duan Jingshu.
Duan Jingshu recovered from his amazement. "Oh, let's go."
Xu Xiayin had noticed Duan Jingshu's absent-mindedness just now. She couldn't help but hate Ye Zhen even more. "Big Brother Duan, where are you going?"
"I'm taking Miss Ye out." Duan Jingshu knew Xu Xiayin well and didn't say where they were going.
"Then I'll go too." Xu Xiayin said immediately. She thought that Ye Zhen could enter the Great Sage Sect only by virtue of her face. She was worried that Duan Jingshu would be deceived.
Duan Jingshu frowned. "You still have to practice. It's not suitable for you to go out with us."
"It doesn't matter if you don't practice today." Xu Xiayin cried and secretly glared at Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen had already experienced a lot of things. How could she not see where Xu Xiayin's hostility towards her came from? Yesterday she was confused, but today she understood everything.
Duan Jingshu's face became serious. "Nephew Xu, don't make trouble."
Hearing him call her nephew, Xu Xiayin felt even more wronged. Duan Jingshu had never been so strict with her.
"Uncle Duan, let's go," Ye Zhen said mildly. She didn't have time to care about Xu Xiayin's childish attitude.
She only wanted to quickly practice a self-defense technique. Everything else had nothing to do with her. She wasn't from the Xuantian Continent. Here, she was just a passerby.
"Mount Xingyun is a bit far from here. You don't know how to fly yet. I'll take you there, "Duan Jingshu said in a low voice. For some reason, when he said this, his nose seemed to smell the fragrance she had left by his side yesterday.
Before Ye Zhen could speak, Bai Shisan, who had been silent behind her all this time, said mildly, "No need. I'll take you there myself."
Only then did Duan Jingshu realize that Bai Shisan's spiritual power seemed to have recovered quite a bit. It was completely different from yesterday.
He actually recovered so quickly!
