Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 398 See you tomorrow

McCoy, Long Whale Gate.

Ever since the extraordinary phenomenon of observing the heavens and the earth occurred, everyone in the martial arts world of Maizhou knows that the Changjing Sect is now a top-tier sect with a Heavenly Consciousness Realm expert in charge.

Huang Bing can be said to have fulfilled the long-cherished wish of his master's sect. Of the beggars and laborers of that time, only their gang truly emerged.

With such a prestigious reputation, many masters and geniuses from the martial arts world naturally came to seek refuge with him.

Elders' cave dwellings gradually began to appear among the continuous green mountains of Changjingmen.

However, no one dared to build their cave on that unremarkable low mountain, along with the stream in the valley.

As dusk fell, the small figure by the stream put away his fishing rod, carrying a bucket of fresh stream fish, and returned to the hut.

A cast iron pot was hanging in the room, already simmering with spicy soup. The fire was burning brightly, and the soup was bubbling away.

Pear slowly and methodically prepared the fish, then threw the whole thing into the pot. As the fish meat turned white, the aroma slowly began to waft out.

With his short legs, he moved a small stool himself and was just sitting down to eat when he heard footsteps outside.

She slurped a mouthful of food with her chopsticks, then moved a small stool to the opposite side.

The wooden door opened, and Han Youzhi walked in.

The Heavenly Ancestor of the Long Whale Sect, a legendary beauty in the sect, was not considered particularly exquisite by Han Youzhi at first glance.

Wearing a simple and loose-fitting Changjing Sect disciple's uniform, with her long hair casually tied behind her back, her eyes were downcast, and she looked somewhat listless. Her beautiful face also showed signs of thinness.

"Let's eat," Pear called to her.

Han Youzhi pursed her lips, sat opposite her, picked up her chopsticks, reached for the pot, but then stopped.

She looked at Lu Li: "I think I heard him calling me today when I was in the Jade Palace."

Pear remained calm as she picked out a piece of incredibly tender bamboo shoot that she had personally picked from the mountain from the hot pot, saying, "This is the sixth time."

"Really! And I feel like he's watching me from somewhere in the clouds."

This is the eleventh time.

"Do you think it's possible that right now, while I'm eating, he might have gone looking for me but couldn't find me?"

"I don't remember this sentence, but they say it every time we eat."

Li Zi blew on the hot pear, then picked up a thick slice of ginseng from the pot, tossed it aside with a look of disgust, and said with a sneer, "Radish."

She looked up at Han Youzhi, who had lost her appetite, and sighed, "Ever since Pei Xia disappeared, you've been spending ten hours a day in the Jade Palace. To be able to endure this much, I have to admit that your desire to be my master's wife is a bit too strong."

Han Youzhi must have heard her. She brushed a stray strand of hair from her temple and murmured, "He's definitely not dead, is he?"

"Yes, so you really don't need to worry so much..."

As she spoke, Pear picked up the fish she had just caught that day: "With him dead, the 'cursed boar' is freed, so we'll definitely have news."

The girl said this, but her chopsticks, which were holding the fish head, kept trembling for some reason, and she couldn't pick it up even after two attempts.

Having been missing for so long, Lu Li had considered many possibilities.

She knew that there was a possibility that Pei Xia was dead, and the calamity was not yet revealed.

That is, Pei Xia died in Ru Tao's sealed-off area.

Judging from Pei Xia's purpose for going there and the subsequent Fire Vein Battle, this possibility is not low.

She gave up on picking up the fish, picked up a piece of beef brisket, took a bite, and mumbled, "Eat, eat."

Han Youzhi shook her head, then suddenly put down her bowl and stood up: "I... I'll go wait at Qiongxiao Yuyu for a while longer, maybe..."

After saying that, she pushed open the door and went into the cave.

Inside the stone chamber, the jade pendants jingled crisply. Han Youzhi held her breath and focused her mind, returning once again to the Jade Palace of the Azure Sky.

During this period, she has spent far more time here than in the real world.

She was so familiar with everything here that she was terrified.

Expensive gold and white jade, towering buildings, lingering clouds and mist, and her solitude.

nobody.

She sighed. So, it really was just her imagination again?
Forget it.

Come here.

She dragged her feet and walked to the building sign. At first, she stood there.

He stood for a while and then squatted down.

After squatting for a while, he sat down on the ground again.

She didn't mean it, but a strange sense of grievance lingered in her heart. After a while, she would curl up her legs, bury her face in them, and stretch out her arms as if to hug herself.

I don’t know how long it took.

She felt as if someone had hit her.

"Hey."

Someone called her name; it was a woman's voice.

Han was tired and irritable. She didn't want to communicate with anyone and subconsciously wanted to leave the Qiongxiao Yuyu.

But to her surprise, following that shout, it seemed as if someone had hugged her.

Han Youzhi felt like there were two soft, fluffy things on her head.

She looked up, somewhat annoyed, and peeked her face out from the other person's chest: "Who is it?"

It was a petite young girl's face. Looking at Old Han's round face and beard, she looked helpless, with a hint of amusement and exasperation: "We really should have made it look more human back then."

Han Youzhi was stunned for a moment.

He stared wide-eyed at the girl in front of him.

After a while, she buried her face in the girl's chest again, squeezed it hard to wipe her eyes, and then lifted it up again.

Their eyes met, and Pei Xia reached out and ruffled Old Han's big head, saying gently, "It's me."

The muscular man's eyes narrowed noticeably, his eye sockets reddened, and his eyes were wet. She bit her lip so hard that she bit her beard into it.

But just a second before she was about to cry, she forced herself to hold it back.

Then he stood up and started punching Pei Xia repeatedly.

"Are you trying to die?!"

"How long has it been?! Huh? Tell me yourself, how long has it been? Did you go to the East Sea to become a mermaid?!"

"You didn't contact me even though Yuqiong isn't missing? What happened to our agreement?"

"You bastard! Liar! You big idiot! You dare come back to me? You have no shame!"

Pei Xia didn't dare to talk back and could only suffer in silence.

The other jade holders who passed by all stared wide-eyed as a burly man violently attacked a slender little girl.

Although it's said that being hit in the Jade Palace doesn't hurt, this situation looks like they have a grudge.

“Okay, okay…” Pei Xia tried to stop her.

But it was no use; Han Youzhi was clearly trying to release something that had been suppressed for a while.

"Alright..." Pei Xia had no choice but to use her ultimate move, "Alright, baby!"

The old man paused for a moment, his face turning bright red, his cheeks puffed out, and he fell silent.

"I have limited time. If you don't want me to lose contact again, listen to me carefully now."

Li Qing gave Pei Xia only one bottle of pills. People in Qinzhou are not particular; a bottle doesn't contain the default six pills, but nine.

Aside from the one that must be kept, Pei Xia only has two minutes left.

Having already used up most of it, Pei Xia mentally estimated the amount and then stated as concisely as possible: "I need Yangchun Pills, the more the better. Please prepare as many as you can. Tomorrow at Chenshi (7-9 AM), arrive early and wait for me here. If you have the pills, I'll be there; if you don't, I won't. It's a very simple matter."

He spoke so hastily that Han Youzhi must be completely confused, so he could only comfort him by saying, "I will explain the details to you when the pills are available tomorrow."

Time was running out. Pei Xia looked at Han Youzhi and thought back to that last glance into the distance.

She sat on the ground, hugging herself, as lonely as a stone.

Pei Xia reached out and gently hugged her once again.

Old Han pressed his face against his shoulder and whispered, "See you tomorrow."

Pei Xia answered her solemnly, "See you tomorrow."
