139: C139 Promise

C139 Promise

Boom!

Bai Hee's sudden death had caused the entire hollow to shake. A mighty energy wave swept across thousands of miles. At this moment, Ye Xiao, who had just stepped into the Heaven Refining Gourd, felt an extremely terrifying energy surging from his back. It was powerful enough to destroy everything in the world. As he rushed towards the interior of the Heaven Refining Gourd, his heart was filled with alarm bells. In a daze, he saw a white silhouette flashing in front of him. He didn't even think about it. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it. Along with Yaoguang Saintess's cry of surprise, a warm jade entered his embrace.

Om!

The broken pieces of the crimson armor won. At this moment, Ye Xiao poured almost all of his strength into it. His arms were like iron hoops as he tightly held Yaoguang Saintess in his arms and let out a low roar.

"Close the door!"

Yaoguang Saintess was also shocked by the vast and violent energy outside. Almost instinctively, she followed Ye Xiao's roar and formed seals. Finally, she followed Ye Xiao's roar and formed seals. -

Boom!

The entrance to the Heaven Refining Gourd had been sealed, but in the blink of an eye, before she could even let out a breath that she had been holding in her heart... She felt her legs shake, and the world spin around her. She was completely unable to maintain her center of gravity. If it wasn't for Ye Xiao hugging her, her entire body would have flown up long ago. But it was precisely because she was in Ye Xiao's arms that... She didn't fly up by herself, but rather... -

Two people!

Boom! Boom!

The two of them hugged each other tightly, causing the space within the Heaven Refining Gourd to sway unsteadily. The dull sounds of explosions were endless. Some of them came from the inner wall of the Heaven Refining Gourd. There was also the sound of Ye Xiao hitting the inner wall of the Heaven Refining Gourd. Yaoguang Saintess's heart instantly jumped to her throat. She felt that Ye Xiao's arms were getting more and more powerful. It was as if he was going to push her into his chest. A vigorous male aura came over, causing her heart to tremble. However, she finally felt a trace of safety in this panic. She couldn't help but stretch out her arms. Merely hugging this body that could make her feel safe at this moment caused her delicate body to heat up. His face was as red as water.

Shaking.

Rolling!

It was as if the heaven and earth had collapsed, and all living things had withered away. The feeling of suffocation still lingered around him. The Heaven Refining Gourd made cracking sounds as it continuously resisted the wild and violent energy of the outside world. Every time it entered into Yaoguang Saintess's ears, her Dao Heart would suddenly tremble. Deep in her beautiful eyes, she was afraid of Mo Shen, afraid that the Heaven Refining Gourd would not be able to withstand it.

Finally.

Bang!

A violent explosion was heard. The two of them fiercely smashed onto the ground. Even with Ye Xiao's protection, Yaoguang Saintess still felt her body shake violently. An intense pain was felt. When her heart was filled with endless shock, to her surprise, she discovered that the trembling of the Heaven Refining Gourd had stopped.

"It's over?"

"Was that the sound of the Heaven Refining Gourd landing on the ground?"

Yaoguang Saintess instinctively raised her head and used her Spiritual Sense to probe the outside world, just as she lifted her small face.

Drip.

A drop of warmth fell on her face and flowed down along her pure white forehead. Yaoguang Saintess was stunned for a moment before she saw that Ye Xiao's face, which was so close to her, was covered in blood. His head was bleeding and it was a mess.

"Ah! Are you alright?!"

Yaoguang Saintess immediately struggled out of Ye Xiao's embrace and was incomparably relaxed. It was only at this moment that she realized... Unknowingly, Ye Xiao had already spread out his arms, which were tightly wrapped around her. When she thought about how she had been in Ye Xiao's arms, her face turned red again. Her heart was beating wildly, and her movements were messy. She didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Don't worry. I'm fine. It's just a flesh wound."

Ye Xiao opened his eyes and saw the panic on Yaoguang Saintess's face and the shyness of a young girl. He smiled lightly and pressed down the trace of sweetness in his throat. He circulated his spirit energy, causing the blood mist around him to evaporate and disperse the blood. Very quickly, his face turned clean again, but his long hair was as white as snow. He no longer concealed his original color.

"Are you alright?"

Yaoguang Saintess looked at this miraculous scene and was very surprised. Even if an ordinary person had the support of the pill, their recovery ability would probably not be able to reach such a degree.

But when she thought about how Ye Xiao had relied on the Great Dao in his body and the life force in his body to do this, he hurriedly flipped his hand. Several pure white porcelain bottles appeared in his palm and opened at the same time. Immediately, the fragrance of the pills filled the air.

"You don't need to use your life force anymore. Quickly eat these pills."

Yaoguang Saintess's tone was urgent, and it even showed that it was the first time the two of them had met in such a domineering and unquestionable manner. Ye Xiao heard it, but he did not have any aversion. On the contrary, he looked at the former with anxiety and worry in his eyes. The corner of his mouth curled up, and he smiled. He reached out and took the pill.

"Okay, I'll eat it."

Gudong.

Without much investigation and caution, Ye Xiao didn't even look. He directly swallowed the pill. He only felt a warm medicinal strength sweep through his limbs and bones. He warmed his body and bones, and his severely injured body was rapidly recovering. A large amount of medicinal strength was also absorbed into the Great Dao, accumulating within it.

He was not worried that Yaoguang Saintess would tamper with the pill. If the latter still wanted to kill him, there was no need to save him just now.

Reality proved that his idea was completely correct.

Looking at Ye Xiao's little face that gradually recovered its color, Yaoguang Saintess's expression turned a little better. Her worries gradually disappeared, but when she instinctively looked at the former's eyes, when she saw the smiling expression in Ye Xiao's eyes, her small face immediately turned red again. It was so red that it reached the root of her neck. When she thought of the intimate posture the two had earlier, the young girl's solicitous manner caused her to take a few steps back uncontrollably. She pulled away from Ye Xiao.

"Don't think too much about it."

"You killed him to save my life. I only wanted to repay you, not..."

The young woman's voice grew more and more hesitant. It grew lower and lower until it was almost inaudible. Ye Xiao raised his eyebrows, and a trace of ridicule flashed through his eyes.

He'd escaped death after suffering a great disaster, and he'd let go of his temper as well.

"It's not what?"

"Louder, I can't hear you talking so softly."

The girl's face immediately turned into a rising sun. The clouds covered her face, and she lowered her head. She didn't dare to look up at Ye Xiao again. Her body trembled, and she didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Haha."

Ye Xiao laughed out loud upon seeing this. He knew that the girl was soft-hearted and had a low reputation, so he didn't continue teasing her. He didn't want to give her any more pressure. Instead, he turned his head and looked outside the Heaven Refining Gourd.

Yaoguang Saintess was the owner of the Heaven Refining Gourd, and she had a magic formula that could control everything. She could also see everything in the outside world. Although Ye Xiao did not know what the skill formula was, he had the Myriad Origin Divine Eye. He didn't need any magic formula at all. He could clearly see everything outside.

It was a complete mess!

If the previous Paradise had been like a paradise, it would have been filled with warmth and beauty. The scenery was beautiful, cleansing the depths of one's heart.

But now, not only had its appearance changed greatly, it even seemed to have fallen over.

Dead silence!

Gray!

The world was colorless, and only darkness remained. It was a complete mess. The immortal energy from before had long disappeared, the entire place desolate. One could even see that deep within the void, spatial cracks could be vaguely seen, gradually recovering. It was clear that the most violent fluctuations had already passed, and this heaven and earth was recovering on its own.

As for Bai Hee...

There was no trace of him left in the heaven and earth, not even a single residue was left behind. In the place where he was previously standing, there was a terrifying deep pit that was dozens of meters deep!

"It's over?"

Ye Xiao's eyes focused, and his expression became much more relaxed.

The situation he was most worried about did not happen.

The explosion just now was too serious. It was the first time he had stepped onto the path of a martial artist. In that instant just now, he really thought that the entire heaven and earth would explode. But now, it seemed that the situation was not that bad. Although this place had suffered heavy injuries, it wasn't something that could be shaken by the self-destruction of Bai Hee's Dao Transformation.

"Worthy of being called a Heavenly Passage."

Ye Xiao sighed with emotion.

The Paradise of a Heavenly Passage martial artist could not possibly be so solid. It was the source of a person's martial arts. Let alone a God Hiding Stage warrior, even an Immortal Platform Stage warrior would explode within it. He was afraid that he would die as well. It could only be said that Yaoguang Saintess's Paradise was really powerful, and it had undergone countless changes. It could almost be compared to the real heaven and earth.

"If we want to go out, we should not face too many difficulties."

Ye Xiao looked at the entrance of the hollow in the distance and found that it was still intact. Although there were still ripples, it was gradually recovering. His mood immediately improved, and a smile appeared on his face.

Bai Hee's plan before his death had completely failed.

He had overestimated his own strength and the firmness of this world.

"Hu!"

It was really over!

Ye Xiao let out a long sigh of relief. He shook his head and cleared his mind.

Next was the matter between him and Yaoguang Saintess.

Ye Xiao's eyes lit up. He looked down at the girl in front of him. His thoughts rippled and he was pondering how he should speak when he was surprised to find that... Yaoguang Saintess! ___ was staring at him and it was unknown what she was thinking. Her beautiful eyes revealed a complicated look. The two of them looked at each other, but she did not look away as embarrassingly as before. Gritting her teeth, she suddenly said:

"You are a Dao Injured?"

Ye Xiao's spirit shook, and his eyes regained their calm. He nodded slightly.

"Yes."

Ye Xiao was still a traditional person in his bones. He insisted that as long as it was his own business. It was the same for Yaoguang Saintess. He was prepared to point out this matter as soon as he opened his mouth, but now it seemed like... Yaoguang Saintess! It seemed that she was the first to mention it.

"When did that happen?"

Yaoguang Saintess's body shook and her eyes became more complicated. It took her a long time to ask the second question. How could Ye Xiao not understand the meaning in her words?

"Last year."

"So I should be able to live for another two years, at most two years."

To be frank, Ye Xiao was direct and clear about everything. Yaoguang Saintess's small face gradually turned pale, and she lowered her head. She did not move. Her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she could not bear the shock in her heart. When Ye Xiao saw this scene, he could not help but be a little absent-minded. A hint of sadness flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Lifespan.

Time.

Without a doubt, this was the biggest problem that had trapped him. It was also the publicly acknowledged unsolvable problem of the Cultivation Realm.

The Dao Transformer's calamity was incurable, and no one could cure it. Break!

The two of them fell into silence.

In the silence, Ye Xiao's eyes gradually became calm, like stagnant water. There were no ripples, only deep helplessness.

He had already decided to give up.

If a person could not even control his own fate, how could he be responsible?

But just as he was deeply helpless and unable to extricate himself, suddenly, Yaoguang Saintess raised her head. A bright light flickered in the depths of her beautiful eyes, and she gritted her teeth tightly as if she had made a decision.

"One year!"

"As long as you can last for one year and allow me to complete some things, I will definitely come back to find you and accompany you to spend the last few days."1

Accompany?

The last few days?

Yaoguang Saintess's voice was like a hundred bells, clear and straight to the heart. It was even more like a clear spring that poured into Ye Xiao's heart. It was cool and sweet, making him feel as if the entire world in front of him had lit up.

"Alright, I will wait for you."
