After an unknown amount of time, Qin Xiao slowly regained consciousness and woke up.
As soon as he regained consciousness, Qin Xiao opened his eyes and realized that he was lying on the white lotus bed. His whole body was wrapped in a soft and fragrant scent. Sleeping here gave him an indescribable sense of comfort.
The bed that the Saintess slept on was indeed different.
However, Qin Xiao was not in the mood to feel whether this white lotus bed was comfortable or not. Qin Xiao stood up abruptly and quickly scanned his surroundings. Soon, he saw the Nine Profound Saintess sitting not far from him.
"You're finally awake." Seeing that Qin Xiao had woken up, the Nine Profound Saintess revealed a smile on her face.
She had been guarding Qin Xiao all these years, waiting for Qin Xiao to wake up. Now that he had finally woken up, she naturally heaved a sigh of relief and was in a good mood.
Hearing the Nine Profound Saintess' voice, Qin Xiao could not help but be startled for some reason. He looked at the Nine Profound Saintess.
Some thoughts involuntarily emerged in his mind.
Qin Xiao tried hard to recall, but he could not recall anything. His last memory seemed to be that the Nine Profound Saintess hugged him and said something to him.
However, he could not completely recall those words. He could only remember some fragments, and it was not complete.
As for what happened after that, Qin Xiao really could not remember a single thing. He could not recall anything at all.
His memories of this period of time were completely cut off.
Therefore, Qin Xiao was naturally thinking about what happened during these years.
"Lord Qin Xiao, why are you looking at me like that? Why? You woke up after being in a coma for a period of time. Are you looking at me like a flower? I, the Nine Profound Saintess, am not that attractive in your eyes, right? "The Nine Profound Saintess said.
Only then did Qin Xiao come back to his senses and withdraw his gaze.
Although he had some guesses in his heart, there were some things that were really difficult for him to say.
After struggling in his heart for a while, Qin Xiao decided to ask. Only after asking clearly would he be able to feel more at ease.
However, just as Qin Xiao was about to speak, the Jiuxuan Saintess spoke again. "Young Master Qin Xiao, why are you being so hesitant? Are you that shy? What is there that you can't say directly? "
"I know what you're thinking. Aren't you just wondering if anything happened between us while you were in a coma?"
"What? You're completely unconscious. You don't have any consciousness left. What do you think you can do to me?"
Cough —
Qin Xiao coughed dryly and said, "No, I'm —"
But at this point, Qin Xiao couldn't continue.
The Nine Profound Saintess raised her chin at Qin Xiao, as if she was waiting for him to continue.
Seeing that Qin Xiao did not say anything else, the Jiuxuan Holy Maiden said, "What do you mean by no? So you're saying that I've done something to you? Did I take advantage of you when you were unconscious and forcefully do that to you? "
Cough —
Qin Xiao almost bit his own tongue. He quickly shook his head and waved his hands. "No, no, Nine Profound Saintess, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean that."
"It's just that I'm really unconscious. I don't remember. Therefore, I don't know what happened during this period of time. I'm not sure if I was completely unconscious. "
"That's why — that's why I want to ask so that I can have an idea."
The Nine Profound Saintess snorted. "That's more like it. Okay, okay, I won't joke with you anymore."
"You were like a dead person during this period of time. Nothing happened to us, so you don't have to worry about anything."
Qin Xiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the Nine Profound Saintess's words.
It was good that nothing happened. Qin Xiao was really worried about this matter.
Since everything was fine, he wouldn't think about it for the time being. This calamity was over.
Thinking about it now, he still felt a little scared. The power of that Sage medicine was really terrifying.
But fortunately, he managed to endure it. Although it was indeed extremely painful.
Qin Xiao didn't want to experience such pain again even if he was beaten to death.
Sigh, it was hard to be a good person, and hard to do good things.
Qin Xiao never wanted to be a hero. He didn't like the melodramatic scene of a hero saving a damsel in distress.
But such a task just had to fall on his head.
"Oh right, Nine Profound Saintess, how long have I been unconscious?" Qin Xiao asked.
The Nine Profound Saintess said, "Almost a thousand years."
Almost a thousand years?
Qin Xiao was stunned. It couldn't be, right? He had been unconscious for almost a thousand years. Wasn't that a little too long?
How terrifying was that Sage medicine to be able to make him unconscious for so long?
If it was used to kill someone, even an ordinary Ancient Sage of the fourth step wouldn't be able to escape.
Being unconscious for a thousand years … If someone wanted to kill him, how many times could he die in a thousand years?
Just thinking about it was scary. It was too scary.
The Great Thousand World was too big. There were only things that he couldn't think of. There was nothing that the Great Thousand World didn't have. He still had to maintain a sense of respect for the Great Thousand World.
Even if he was very powerful now and stood at the peak of the Great Thousand World.
But there were still many things that could kill him.
In the future, he had to be more careful when he walked in the Great Thousand World.
"Oh no, Sage Mu Wan is coming." The Nine Profound Saintess suddenly frowned and said.
Hearing that Sage Mu Wan was coming, Qin Xiao immediately frowned. This wasn't good news.
Qin Xiao was puzzled and asked, "Why is Sage Mu Wan coming? Could it be that she wants to spy on us? Or … to guide us? She shouldn't need to guide us, right? If she wants to spy on us, aren't there four Jade Lake Saintesses guarding outside? Does Sage Mu Wan need to come personally? "
Sage Mu Wan was an extremely powerful Ancient Sage of the fourth step. Her status in the Jade Lake Sacred Ground was very high. She was a high-level figure in the Jade Lake Sacred Ground.
If such a big figure was coming, there must be something important.
Therefore, Qin Xiao also didn't understand why Sage Mu Wan was coming here.
No matter what Sage Mu Wan's purpose was, it wasn't good news for Qin Xiao.
The Nine Profound Saintess shook her head and said, "You're right. She wants to spy on us."
"Perhaps Sage Muwan knows a little about my thoughts, or perhaps she knows a little about my relationship with you. When she saw Young Master Qin Xiao participate in the Holy Prince Consort selection, it is extremely likely that she guessed some things, so she came."
She really came for an inspection. The situation wasn't good.
How should he deal with this?
If it was only the four Jade Lake Saintesses guarding outside, it wouldn't be a big deal.
At most, they would guard the door and prevent Qin Xiao from leaving. They definitely wouldn't dare to come in and check, so there was nothing to worry about.
But if Sage Mu Wan came, she would definitely come in and check the situation.
Once she did, wouldn't it be big trouble?
Qin Xiao didn't think of a good way to deal with this matter. Now the headache had come.
"Jiuxuan Saintess, under normal circumstances, a thousand years should be enough for you to conceive a child, right?" Qin Xiao asked.
The Nine Profound Saintess nodded and said, "Yes. Under normal circumstances, a thousand years should be enough. But obviously … our situation isn't normal. So, if Sage Mu Wan comes and sees that nothing is wrong with me, I'm afraid … "
Qin Xiao shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "I'm afraid she will immediately guess that nothing is going on between us."
"She will also know that I came to participate in the selection of the Holy Prince Consort not to get you, Nine Profound Saintess, but to help you."
"If that's the case, our plan will be completely exposed to Sage Mu Wan. Sage Mu Wan won't let it go so easily."
"It seems that we still have to face what we have to face. There's no way to deal with this headache. This trouble still came. "
The Nine Profound Saintess shook her head helplessly, her face full of bitterness.
Yes, what was going to come would come, and it would come quickly.
She couldn't escape or hide from it. She had to face it.
Qin Xiao gritted his teeth, and a wave of viciousness surged up. "If it's coming, it's coming. It's going to come anyway. But I've been having a headache and haven't thought of a way to deal with it. "
"But there's always a way. Maybe we'll only know how to deal with it when it really comes."
"Since we've already come this far, there's nothing more to say. No matter how difficult it is to deal with it, it has to be dealt with. "
"No matter how big the price we have to pay, it has to come to an end."
"No matter how bad it is, I believe the Jade Lake Sacred Ground won't kill me. At most, I'm not qualified to be the Holy Prince Consort."
"But I believe the Jade Lake Sacred Ground won't really give me the death penalty for something like this, right?"
"As long as I don't die, everything else is easy to deal with. No matter how big the pain is, it's nothing.
Since I've chosen this path, I've already prepared for the worst. "
"Since I don't have a good plan, I'll just prepare for the worst. It's not a big deal."
"You'll only know how to get out of this path after you've walked it."
The Nine Profound Saintess looked at Qin Xiao deeply. A strange look flashed in her eyes and disappeared without a trace.
"Qin Xiao …" After hesitating for a while, the Nine Profound Saintess opened her mouth and said, "Thank you, thank you. I, the Nine Profound Saintess, didn't have any other friends in the past. But since I met you, I have friends. "
"It's my fortune to be able to meet you."
"I'm just very sorry that I've caused you so much trouble."
"Although I can't protect you, I'll do my best to reduce the harm the Jade Lake Sacred Ground will do to you."
"You're Li Sheng's direct disciple. I believe the Jade Lake Sacred Ground won't go too far with you. I'll also do my best to protect you."
Qin Xiao curled her lips and chuckled. She hoped nothing would happen.
The closer it was to this point, the more relaxed Qin Xiao's mood became.
Creak!
The door of the room was suddenly pushed open and a powerful figure walked in.
It was a familiar figure and a familiar aura.
But this time, there wasn't a large group of Jade Lake Saintesses around. This person came alone, but her aura wasn't any weaker than the previous time.
The person who came was none other than Saint Mu Wan.
After Saint Mu Wan came in, a hand closed the door. The four Jade Lake Saintesses who were guarding the door were also left at the door. Saint Mu Wan didn't let them follow in.
As soon as Saint Mu Wan came in, her eyes locked onto Qin Xiao and the Nine Profound Saintess.
Seeing Saint Mu Wan come, the Nine Profound Saintess' heart couldn't help but tremble. She was obviously a little nervous.
On the other hand, Qin Xiao looked at Saint Mu Wan without fear.
