Chapter 388 Sensing
In a daze, amidst the sound of the ocean waves, Su Muyao gradually regained consciousness.

She was still asleep, but she could hear the sounds around her.

"Uncle Wu, how is she?"

The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Su Muyao, but she couldn't quite place it at the moment.

"She's much better now and should wake up in the next couple of days. But she still needs to take her medicine on time; she's really weak, and we don't know what she's been through..."

Later on, Su Muyao couldn't hear clearly anymore.

After taking another nap, Su Muyao slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was a masked man by her bedside.

He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that she was awake. "Miss Su, you're awake."

Hearing his voice as clear as a spring and jade, and meeting his mysterious and deep eyes, Su Muyao was stunned, her eyes welling up with tears as she asked, "Night Shadow, is that you?"

Ye Ying lowered his head to meet Su Muyao's clear and bright eyes, and his voice involuntarily softened as he said, "Miss Su, it's me."

Night Shadow tried hard to control his feelings and longing for her, not wanting to put any pressure or burden on her, nor wanting to scare her away.

But only he knew how much he missed her.

"Nightshade, how have you been lately?"

As Su Muyao spoke, she quickly got up.

Ye Ying hurriedly stepped forward and carefully helped Su Muyao up.

They even thoughtfully placed a pillow behind her so she could lean against it comfortably.

He possessed an exceptionally refined air, and every move he made was noble and elegant.

Su Muyao looked at him with a worried expression.

She still felt guilty towards him.

When she arrived on the Azure Beast Continent, he appeared by her side to take care of her, and later he risked his life to save her.

She was touched and moved.

At that moment, she thought that if she could live, she would definitely treat him well.

Especially after the incident with Yue Wuhen, she actually understood a lot of things.

Under Su Muyao's worried gaze, Ye Ying's heart skipped a beat, and he said softly, "I'm fine."

Su Muyao unconsciously tugged at his sleeve and asked, "When you fell off the cliff, were you badly injured?"

"When I woke up, I wanted to look for you, but I couldn't find you anywhere."

If her master hadn't said he would be safely sent out, she wouldn't know how worried she would be.

Su Muyao is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. She cherishes the kindness others show her and is willing to repay even the smallest kindness several times over.

Nightshade said gently, "My injuries are relatively minor. I was rescued by a mysterious person, and when I woke up, I was already at the beach. I'm fine."

Su Muyao carefully observed Ye Ying's eyes and saw that he seemed to be alright.

She was thinking about what happened before she fainted again. Su Muyao realized something and looked at Ye Ying, saying, "You saved my life again. I don't know how to repay you."

Su Muyao was surprised by the coincidence; she was saved by Ye Ying again.

At this moment, when she looked at Night Shadow, her eyes were filled with trust and reliance.

Nightshade said softly, "I just happened to be passing by there, so there's no need for repayment."

"I'm sorry, I'm still late."

He didn't expect that she knew all this while she was unconscious.

Nightshade reached out and gently touched the mask. He had rushed over in such a hurry that he hadn't had time to put on the mask, so she probably hadn't seen his face.

Nightshade worried that she would hate him and reject him if she saw it.

He could only treat her well as Nightshade.

A lot has happened in the past six months. He entered the Temple of Inheritance to obtain the power of inheritance, and had no idea what was happening outside. He only came out of the Temple of Inheritance a month ago.

After he got out, he began looking for Su Muyao.

He couldn't sense any trace of her presence; he could only find her through the water-repelling bead.

But for the past month, no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any trace of the water-repelling pearl.

It's as if water-repelling beads don't exist in this world.

But he didn't give up and kept searching.

But when they sensed the aura of the water-repelling pearl and followed the aura, they found her surrounded and being attacked.

When Nightshade saw that scene, he stopped breathing.

Fortunately, her life was not in danger.

Su Muyao had no idea what Ye Ying was thinking, but after hearing what Ye Ying had just said, she didn't say anything more.

She just told herself that she would definitely repay Ye Ying and be good to him.

"By the way, do you know what's happening outside?"

Why are there spider-beastmen?

Su Muyao was filled with doubts.

She had actually seen spider-beastmen from over 100,000 years ago in the world of resentment; they weren't as bloodthirsty.

Spider-orcs are divided into two types. Some increase their strength by killing and devouring the abilities of other orcs, while others just want to live a peaceful life in a secluded corner, not wanting to cause trouble or fight with others.

Every race has its good and bad aspects, and it is impossible to generalize.

Nightshade explained, "It is said that the insectoids in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land sent out a powerful being through a secret method. This powerful being is said to have lived for at least 100,000 years and is extremely powerful. He somehow managed to break through the barrier and bring out many orcs from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land."

"It also brought out the dark aura originating from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land."

"For the past few months, they have been wreaking havoc on the Azure Beast Continent, killing anyone who is not of their kind."

“The Azure Beast Continent has undergone tremendous changes in the past few months. Many wild beasts and plants have been invaded by darkness and mutated. Countless orcs have died tragically at the hands of the Spider Orcs, which has also triggered conflicts between many forces. Everyone in all the major forces and tribes is living in fear.”

This situation actually reminded Nightshade of the world-ending war that took place 100,000 years ago.

The current state of conflict is escalating and bears some resemblance to the situation back then.

However, this was just his guess. Some things were unclear, and he couldn't just say anything, lest he cause her unnecessary trouble.

As if remembering something, Su Muyao asked, "Is the Biyue tribe alright?"

Nightshade explained, "The Azure Water Tribe has activated its tribal defensive array. They have the power of the Jade Pool, and the Spider Orcs can't break through it for the time being."

Knowing what else she wanted to know, Ye Ying didn't wait for her to ask and took the initiative to explain: "Also, half a year ago, the Xuanyuan Clan and the Bright Palace had a great battle. Also involved in the battle were the young master of the Nalan Clan, the Fire Fox Beastman with the Golden Crow Beast bloodline, and the pure-blooded Ice Wolf Beastman."

Su Muyao's expression changed. "They... how did they get to the Hall of Light? Do you know what happened to them?"

Su Muyao's heart leaped into her throat, filled with worry.

Nightshade shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics. It's said that they wanted to avenge their wife, but after severely damaging the Hall of Light, they disappeared. Nobody knows where they went."

"There has been no news about them on the mainland for the past few months."

Su Muyao felt very uneasy. She asked the system, "System, are Xiao Jihan and the others alright?"

The system said, "Host, they are all still alive, but I don't know where they are now."

"Although you have broken the bond that binds you to their lives, you are still their mistress. They must have sensed your death."

"They should be able to use this connection to find the place where you were injured and died."

"They may have found out that the Temple of Light wanted to kill you, so they thought of avenging you."

"As for that snake-beastman disguised as Wen Nanxi, he is too strong and his movements are too strange. With Xiao Jihan and the others' current strength, they can't detect his presence at all."
