Chapter 390 (2/2)

“Remember—you must not resist it. If you do so even for a moment, everything will go to waste!” the old man reminded Xue Ying.

“Yes.” Xue Ying nodded.

Weng!

Those countless seals gathered to form a huge golden door, which in turn condensed two golden rays. One flew toward Xue Ying’s direction, while the other headed toward the unconscious Jing Qiu.

Once the rays touched both their bodies…

Xue Ying could feel his soul suddenly begin to float. At first, it felt very comfortable, but soon he began to realize that his soul was starting to become weaker. Even so, he could clearly sense his spiritual energy move along the golden ray and toward the door before finally turning into some sort of mystical strength which entered his wife’s body.

The old man simply directed the process with a solemn expression.

This lasted for a total of half an hour.

The reverse flow of the Laws of the World had also been obstructed by the true body of the old man for that half an hour.

He then immediately roared, “Mend!”

By that point, the golden door had soundlessly dissipated into nothingness without leaving a trace behind.

The feeling of Xue Ying’s soul floating away also disappeared as he returned to normal.

“Alright, this matter is now finished. I’ll be taking my leave now.” The white-haired old man pointed toward Jing Qiu, causing the time acceleration seal placed on her body to land on the ground next to her. “Brat, don’t forget your promise.”

“Senior, rest easy,” Xue Ying began, but then he could not help but ask, “When will my wife wake up?”

“Very soon.” The old man replied as his figure began to disappear.

Hua.

With that, he completely dissipated from the world.

On that mountain peak atop the Snowrock Mountain, only Xue Ying and his wife now remained.

“Jing Qiu.” Xue Ying immediately went over to his wife’s side, squatting there to carefully observe her face. He couldn’t help but be nervous as he waited.

Would she wake up?

Was that old man perhaps just making a fool out of him? Or was he planning something sinister?

Would Jing Qiu wake up or not?

While his intuition told him that an existence of that level would not stoop so low as to make a fool out of him, Xue Ying’s concern for his wife left him in a state of confusion. He gazed at Jing Qiu with a perturbed expression; he was so anxious that his heart began beating erratically.

Wake up. Please, wake up quickly. Xue Ying could only look forward to that moment. Losing half of his original soul so abruptly left Xue Ying absent-minded.

Jing Qiu simply lay on the ground, in deep sleep, with a peaceful expression on her face. Her skin glittered like white jade, and her entire body remained as beautiful as ever.

All of a sudden, her eyelashes moved, followed by her eyes slowly opening.

Seeing the eyes of his wife…

“Xue Ying?” Jing Qiu was relatively perplexed. “This…what is…”

Xue Ying was so excited that he let out a hearty laugh. At that moment, he felt like color had returned to his world. Even the white clouds in the distant sky left a warm feeling in his heart. The slightly dirty snow from being stepped by others somehow seemed like it contained the fragrance of the earth. The sight of Jing Qiu waking up left his entire world feeling completely different.

Jing Qiu extended her hand to wipe the tears off of her husband’s face. “You’re crying and laughing again.”

“It’s no big deal. What, am I not allowed to be happy?” Xue Ying hugged Jing Qiu tightly.

“How come I did not die? I remember…” Jing Qiu was still in a daze.

“Die? What are you talking about? Did you not say you’d have a group of babies with me?!”
