Back at the Sacred Emperor Mountain residence, An Ge and Fire Phoenix had been waiting anxiously for Ye Zhen. When they saw that Ye Zhen had finally returned safely, they almost cried out loud.
"Yao Yao!" Fire Phoenix's eyes were red as she grasped Ye Zhen's hand tightly. "You're injured. That old man Fan Luo dared to hurt you. Just you wait, I will practice hard in the future and teach him a lesson for you."
An Ge said, "Is there a need for you to teach Fan Luo a lesson? Emperor Mo has already brought Yao Yao back. He must have taught Fan Luo a lesson. "
Fire Phoenix glanced timidly at Emperor Mo. He used to think that the City Lord was already very powerful, but he always seemed to be more powerful than he imagined.
"Heal first." Emperor Mo whispered to Ye Zhen.
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded gently. "Do you want Mingxi to come out first?"
Emperor Mo replied, "Let him stay in the space first."
Ye Zhen didn't know what Emperor Mo's plan was, but since he said so, there must be a reason.
"Little Fire, go to the space and tell Mingxi that I'm fine." Ye Zhen said to Fire Phoenix.
Fire Phoenix nodded and immediately disappeared in front of them.
Emperor Mo took Ye Zhen's hand back to the room and carefully examined the injury on her face.
"Just wash it with the spiritual spring." Ye Zhen smiled. "Fortunately, it's not disfigured, otherwise I would have become ugly."
"Does it hurt?" Emperor Mo took out a crystal clear green bottle, poured out a little transparent ointment and smeared it on Ye Zhen's face little by little.
Ye Zhen smiled. "It's so cool. What is it?"
"Injury medicine from the Divine Continent. Do you feel better?" Emperor Mo asked in a low voice.
"Yeah, it's much better." Ye Zhen nodded and took Emperor Mo's hand, letting him sit beside her. "Ah Zhan, when are we leaving here? Have you found a gap?"
Emperor Mo saw that the scars on her face had healed a lot and the redness had disappeared. His stiff expression relaxed a little, but he didn't answer anything. He just held Ye Zhen's face in his hands and lowered his head to kiss her.
"Hmm …" Ye Zhen gently punched him. His kiss was so intense that Ye Zhen's lips stung.
Emperor Mo kissed her fiercely, holding her tightly in his arms. Back at Mt. Spirit Beast, when he had sensed that something had happened to her, he had felt an unprecedented sense of panic in his heart. He knew that she was intelligent, and he knew that her cultivation level wasn't low, but this place was different from the Xuantian Continent. Here … she was still too weak.
Knowing that she had been taken away by Fan Luo, Emperor Mo began to regret not cultivating for so many years. He was still unable to protect her completely.
"Ah Zhan …"
Emperor Mo finally left her lips, licking and kissing her earlobe.
Ye Zhen finally found the strength to speak up, "Ah Zhan, hold on. Let's … talk business first."
"This is business," Emperor Mo said hoarsely.
By the time they finished their business, it was already the next morning.
Ye Zhen's back was to Emperor Mo, and she was sulking angrily. Who would do such a thing after returning from a disaster? He didn't tell her anything else.
"Yaoyao." Emperor Mo knew that she was angry. He pulled her into his arms and said, "After nightfall, we will leave this place."
"You found the gap?" Ye Zhen couldn't care less about being angry. It was more important to decide when to leave.
She refused to speak for a long time, but the moment he mentioned it, her eyes lit up. "Yes, but the gap is at Flood Dragon Lake. It will be more dangerous to pass through."
"Flood Dragon?" Ye Zhen's smile froze. Although she had never seen a Flood Dragon, she knew from the name that it wouldn't be easy to deal with. "Is there only the gap?"
"There's one more …" Emperor Mo said in a low voice, "in Di Zun's palace."
"…" Seems like Flood Dragon Lake is safer.
"Don't worry, Di Zun Shi Tian is not there. If we can't pass through Mount Spirit Beast, we can go to Di Zun's palace, but …" Emperor Mo frowned and thought for a moment. "Going to Mount Spirit Beast is risky, but I don't want people to know that there is a gap in Di Zun's palace. The Great God is missing, and the balance between the three continents will be affected. In order to prevent other martial artists from going to Xuantian Continent, we have to seal the gap after we pass through the continent."
Ye Zhen was a little confused. "What Great God is missing? There is no spiritual energy in the human continent. There should be no one willing to go there. "
"It is because there is no spiritual energy that mortals can't cultivate. That's why the Great God is needed to keep everyone from Xuantian Continent and the Great God Continent from going there. A beginner martial artist can become a peerless master in the human continent."
"So, sealing the gap is actually to protect the human continent?" Ye Zhen thought for a moment. Being a lowly martial artist here, one would be a peerless master in the human continent. Even without spiritual energy, one could enjoy endless glory and wealth. It was indeed full of temptation.
"Yes." Emperor Mo nodded lightly.
The human continent was her place. She certainly didn't want it to be destroyed.
"But, who is the Great God? Where did he go? "Ye Zhen asked.
"He is the most respected person in the Great God Continent. His existence is the balance point of the three continents. However, there has been no news of him for ten years." Emperor Mo said lightly. When he mentioned the Great God, there was no sincerity or respect shown by others.
It was the first time Ye Zhen had heard of the Great God. However, she believed that Emperor Mo was definitely doing the right thing.
"I'll listen to you. I'll go wherever you say." As long as she could return to the human continent, it was fine.
Emperor Mo nodded lightly. "I'll go find Yuxiu first. You go and tell Mingxi."
"Okay." Ye Zhen remembered that Mingxi was still in the space. She hurriedly struggled out of Emperor Mo's arms. "Hurry up and go. I'm going to see Mingxi."
"In your heart, your son is more important than me?" Emperor Mo raised his eyebrows.
Ye Zhen laughed dryly. "Of course not. You are the most important."
Although he knew that these words were meant to coax him, Emperor Mo still felt comfortable listening to them.
"Hurry up and get up. Don't you have to go find Emperor Yuxiu?" Ye Zhen pulled his hand and asked him to leave the bed.
Emperor Mo sat up and neatly put on his clothes. "I'll go right now."
After Ye Zhen watched him leave, she entered the space to see Mingxi.
She thought that her son would be anxiously waiting for her to see him. Who knew that when she entered the space, she would find the three children gnawing on crystal pig's trotters.
"Where did this come from …" Ye Zhen asked helplessly.
Fire Phoenix giggled. "I saved it. Good things should be shared."
"Mother, are you okay?" Mingxi put down the pig's trotters and immediately ran to Ye Zhen.
"It's nothing. Do I look like I'm not okay?" Ye Zhen asked helplessly. "We'll leave tonight and return to the human continent."
