Time gradually passed. On the third day, Qin Nan and Ji Jinzi arrived at the inner region of the Middle Profound Realm.
The effect of the Seven-colored Light was weakened once again, and the speed of the two slowed down even more. Ji Jinzi also took out the other half of the Soul-amassing Book, and followed that vague feeling as they continued to move forward.
"The other half of the Spirit-Gathering Book is over there!"
Around two days later, Ji Jinzi came to a stop. Her eyes were filled with surprise.
Qin Nan raised his head and saw three pitch-black mountains of similar height in front of them. They were located in different directions, surrounding a vast land.
Right now, the sky had already darkened. Countless stars were hanging in the sky, flickering with a faint blue radiance that sprinkled over the blue sky. However, for some unknown reason, the boundless starlight was unable to shine into that piece of land.
Qin Nan could sense an extraordinary aura surging from the place, which was far stronger than the forbidden grounds they had encountered along the way.
"Kasyapa, this place … seems to be the Land of Sighs?"
Zhou Xundao said.
"It's very possible. The Land of Sighs used to be divided by two mountains, which covered an area of ninety thousand li! Now that the three mountains are divided by three hundred and thirty thousand li, it must have evolved in the past ten thousand years. "
Kasyapa paused for a moment before continuing, "Master, you've come to the Land of Sighs with Cang and the others when you were a Heaven Highness. It's a terrifying place. You were attacked by a mysterious force in less than an hour after you entered, forcing you to leave. "
"Some Heaven Highnesses wanted to explore it, but they all died in the end."
Qin Nan nodded. He was about to continue forward when Ji Jinzi grabbed his hand. Qin Nan turned around and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
He said as a thought crossed his mind, "Don't worry, the Land of Sighs is terrifying, but it shouldn't be a problem with the Nine Dragons Seal."
Ji Jinzi regained her calm. She said with a complicated look, "No, that's not what I'm worried about."
Qin Nan was startled, "Then what's wrong with you? Now that we can gather your mother's soul, shouldn't you … "
Without waiting for him to finish, Ji Jinzi pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Qin Nan, thank you. If it wasn't for your help, I definitely wouldn't have been able to come here."
Qin Nan smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to tell me this."
Ji Jinzi nodded and grunted softly. She seemed to have figured something out, and she let out a long sigh of relief before she said, "Senior Zhou, Senior Jia Ye, can I trouble the two of you to leave for a moment?"
Zhou Xundao and Kasyapa's expressions turned even stranger.
"Alright, no problem."
The two of them immediately nodded, and the corners of their mouths curled up into a faint smile.
Qin Nan was confused. Everything was fine, what happened to Ji Jinzi?
Ji Jinzi stared at Qin Nan. She wanted to laugh, but Sister Feiyue's body was too weak to do so.
As such, Qin Nan was startled when he saw her glittering eyes.
"Qin Nan, in the past, I've always been looking forward to the outside world with the greatest hope. However, no matter what I did, my father wouldn't allow me to leave the Heaven Court. My mother told me that he was doing it for my own good. "
"I finally saw the outside world as I wished, but everything was so dark, cold, and dangerous."
"My heart died, and I lost all hope, but I never thought I would be reincarnated, and Sister Feiyue even gave me a chance to reappear in this world."
"Furthermore, I suddenly realized that my previous yearning was not wrong. The outside world is truly beautiful."
"Even though the Blue Dome is full of danger, the past few days have been extremely brilliant for me."
"I know you're only doing this because of Sister Feiyue, but I still have to thank you once again."
Ji Jinzi said softly, as if her voice had become the only thing in the world.
Qin Nan fell silent. His heart was filled with complicated feelings.
"Qin Nan, you might not know this, but Sister Feiyue cares a lot about you. You're the person she cares about the most in her life. She also wants to marry you. She even wants to have a child with you. "
Qin Nan was startled.
"However, she doesn't know how to say it. Sister Feiyue might seem cold, imperious, and unbeatable, but she's actually very thin-skinned. She's clueless when it comes to relationships."
"The same goes for you, as a man, you shouldn't be so dull. You should be more proactive."
When Ji Jinzi spoke to this point, she extended her jade-like hand and undid her robe, revealing her fair jade-like shoulders and the light muslin she wore underneath.
Qin Nan's heart skipped a beat.
Was Ji Jinzi …
"Qin Nan."
Ji Jinzi's glamorous face blushed. Her cheeks were blushing.
Under the faint blue moonlight, it felt like she had just walked out of a painting. It felt like a dream.
"Sister Feiyue, I'm sorry, I'll do it on her behalf today. This can be considered a gift from me to you … "
Ji Jinzi reached out her hand and grabbed Qin Nan's arm. She closed her eyes and slowly moved forward. Her long eyelashes were trembling slightly.
Even though her action was very bold, she was extremely nervous on the inside.
Since she was young, apart from her father, a few uncles, and the guards, she had never come into contact with any man her age.
Qin Nan was the first, and he would be the last.
She did not know if it was because of Sister Feiyue's memories, or the feelings she had for him over the past few days. She simply wanted to end their short encounter.
It felt like time had frozen.
Her steady breathing landed on Qin Nan's face, together with the scent of her body, which gradually approached him.
Qin Nan's mind went blank. When everything was about to come into contact, he subconsciously blurted out, "No!"
He reached out his hand and pushed Ji Jinzi away.
Ji Jinzi opened her eyes. She was in a daze.
Qin Nan's mind was in a mess. He did not know what to do, "Err, Ji Jinzi, I, err …"
Ji Jinzi's eyes flickered with a hint of disappointment. She quickly gathered her thoughts and said in a playful tone, "Look at you, you don't know what to say again? I was just teasing you. "
Qin Nan let out a relieved sigh and said with a wry smile, "It seems like I should learn more from someone else."
Ji Jinzi said in a relaxed tone, "That's right, why don't you let me teach you … ugh, on second thought, I don't think I have any experience in this either. Forget it, you should learn from someone else. We'll go inside first. "
