Simultaneous Transmigration: Freedom Across the Heavens

Chapter 111 walkthrough

Outside the cabin, the first rays of dawn were breaking, and a gentle breeze blew through the mountains.

Bai Li and Xin Baicao were having a very pleasant conversation. One of them was talking about the mysteries of martial arts and true qi, while the other was exploring the unique mechanisms of healing. Li Suwang stood to the side, occasionally chiming in with a smile.

Just then, the wooden door of the small house creaked open, and Li Hanyi came out.

She was still dressed in a plain white dress, her expression aloof. Seeing the three of them chatting endlessly, she immediately frowned, her tone tinged with impatience: "Have you finished your pleasantries? My mother is still waiting inside for her treatment!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Li Suwang slapped his forehead, his smile fading, and said, "The most important thing now is to treat Xinyue's injuries."

Bai Li smiled and cupped his hands towards Xin Baicao and Li Suwang, speaking calmly: "Master, Brother Xin, I will go and heal Miss Xinyue's injuries first, and we can talk in detail another day." After saying that, he turned around and pushed open the door to enter the small house.

Inside the small house, the light was soft. Li Xinyue was still sitting on the low couch by the window. The morning light shone on her beautiful face. The gloom between her brows was gone. Although there was still some weakness in her eyes, there was more vitality. She was no longer as lifeless as before.

"Miss Xinyue." Bai Li greeted her, but said nothing more. He simply stood in front of her and looked at her quietly.

Bai Li had plenty of patience. He knew that Li Xinyue was still trapped in the past, and only by silently accompanying her and slowly nurturing her could he open her heart.

Li Xinyue's eyes fell on Bai Li's face, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if something had gently bumped into her. She quickly turned her body to the side to avoid his gaze, her voice carrying a hint of barely perceptible panic: "I'll have to trouble you again today."

"Miss Xinyue, you're too kind." Bai Li said calmly, without saying anything more, so as not to put pressure on her.

After exchanging pleasantries, we began today's treatment.

Li Xinyue slowly sat up straight. Bai Li sat cross-legged behind her, gently placing his hands on her back, and pure white true energy flowed into her body in wisps.

Li Xinyue felt that warmth again, and gently bit her lip, forcibly calming herself down, but ripples had already spread through her heart.

Two hours passed by unnoticed.

After the treatment ended, Bai Li withdrew his true energy.

Li Xinyue was completely exhausted and collapsed softly into his arms, her cheeks still flushed. Her breathing was steady, but her eyes were unfocused, clearly still not recovered from that feeling of flying.

Bai Li didn't push her away, pretending to be adjusting his breathing.

This time, it was still the ninth spiritual fusion. Li Xinyue's spiritual body became more and more solid, while the thought planted by Bai Li took deeper and deeper root.

Li Xinyue opened her eyes, and Bai Li's face was reflected in her eyelids.

The sunlight was perfect, shining on his face. His skin was fair and flawless, and the fine downy hairs shimmered slightly in the light. His gentle eyes and composed expression captivated her, leaving her somewhat mesmerized.

Her heart pounded, her fingers twitched unconsciously, and she suddenly felt an urge to touch his face.

The thought had barely crossed Li Xinyue's mind when she was startled. She jumped up and hurriedly straightened her clothes.

How could you even have such a thought?

She had clearly made up her mind that in this life, only Lei Mengsha would be in her heart, and she would never be attracted to anyone else.

But the man in front of her repeatedly broke down her defenses, throwing her heart into turmoil.

Bai Li's ears twitched, he withdrew his true energy, and opened his eyes. Even though he could only see Li Xinyue's back, he knew that she must be in a great panic at the moment.

A hint of a smile flashed in his eyes. He stood up and stepped down, still composed as he cupped his hands to Li Xinyue and said, "Miss Xinyue, today's treatment is over. I will come again tomorrow."

Li Xinyue was in a state of confusion and didn't hear what he was saying at all. She just gave a soft "hmm!"

Pushing open the door, Li Hanyi darted to Li Xinyue's side and greeted her with concern.

Li Suwang first glanced at Li Xinyue inside the room. Seeing that she looked calm, he clasped his hands and said, "Bai Li, thank you so much for saving my daughter's life. I will never forget you and will surely repay you handsomely in the future!"

Alright, forget about the generous reward. How about a generous dowry instead? Marry Miss Xinyue to me. That would be the best way to repay you!

Bai Li thought to himself, but quickly returned the courtesy, saying, "Patriarch, you are too kind. As a disciple of the Jianxin family, it is my duty to save Miss Xinyue. There is no favor to speak of, let alone any need for a generous reward."

He hadn't forgotten that his target had always been Li Xinyue. Bai Li looked up at Li Su. "If the Tomb Master knew that my intentions in saving Miss Xinyue were impure, would he slap me to death right now?"

Li Suwang, of course, was unaware of his ulterior motives and kept inviting him to stay for lunch: "It's almost noon, stay for a meal. Hanyi is a very good cook, you should try her cooking!"

Bai Li politely declined, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Patriarch, but Miss Xinyue has just finished her treatment and is still very weak. She needs to rest, so I won't bother you any longer. I'll trouble you another day."

He knew perfectly well that Li Xinyue was currently very sensitive, and if he stayed for dinner, it would only make her more flustered. The best approach was to proceed gradually, like raindrops wearing away stone.

Moreover, Bai Li glanced at Li Hanyi. With that cold and aloof personality, he would never believe that her cooking was delicious; it must be Li Suwang's biased opinion.

Inside the small house, Li Xinyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Bai Li decline her father's invitation.

When she heard her father invite Bai Li to stay for dinner, she was so nervous that her toes curled up. The feeling was very strange. He was clearly her savior, but she had an inexplicable feeling in her heart, both expectant and flustered.

Thinking of this, Li Qingyue glared at Li Suwang, who touched his nose, wondering what he had done to offend his daughter.

On the other side, Bai Li went down Sword Heart Cliff and headed straight for the Sword Forging Hall.

The Sword Forging Hall remains bustling with activity.

Li Kaiyuan, with his sharp eyes, saw Bai Li enter and grabbed his arm. "Junior Brother Bai, you're such a busy man! You promised to come and look at my blueprints, but you've been gone for a whole day."

Bai Li smiled and said, "Senior Brother Li, please forgive me. I was just completing a task assigned by the patriarch and couldn't get away. Please don't take offense."

Seeing that he had brought up the family head, Li Kaiyuan was certain. He put on a smile again: "Now, can I trouble you, Junior Brother?"

Bai Li patted his chest and said, "Hey, what are you saying, senior brother? Come on, come on, it's my duty to help you, senior brother."

Li Kaiyuan, having been coaxed into submission, nodded in satisfaction, "Junior brother is truly loyal."

"

So the two of them started walking towards the design institute.

late at night.

Moonlight streamed through the window, falling on Li Xinyue's bed, cool yet gentle.

Li Xinyue dreamt that she was in a vast, white expanse of land, surrounded by desolation, and directly in front of her was a familiar figure smiling at her—Lei Mengsha.

Li Xinyue stared blankly at him, tears welling up in her eyes. She had a thousand words to say, but no sound came out. She could only stare at him blankly, tears silently streaming down her face.

Lei Mengsha waved at her, his lips moving slightly without uttering a sound, but his meaning was clearly conveyed: "Xinyue, stop dwelling on the past and go pursue your own happiness."

Then, Lei Mengsha's figure began to blur, gradually disappearing into the vast white world.

Li Xinyue burst into tears, reaching out to grab him while silently calling his name.

Lei Mengsha's figure was clearly within reach, yet it felt as if they were separated by thousands of miles, impossible to grasp no matter how hard she tried.

"Huff, huff—" Li Xinyue suddenly woke up, sat up straight in bed, her chest heaving violently, her forehead covered in cold sweat, and two lines of hot tears still hanging on her cheeks.

She raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, her mind replaying Lei Mengsha's words from her dream, her feelings extremely complicated.

She recalled the light she saw when she opened her eyes during the day, the face of Bai Li that she saw when she opened her eyes, and the way the sunlight shone on his face, which made her uneasy.

She shook her head vigorously, trying to dispel the chaotic thoughts.

After a long while, a night breeze swept by, and Li Xinyue shrank back into the covers, irritably pulling at her hair, secretly annoyed: Li Xinyue, wake up! You're a mother of two, how can you still have such a ridiculous idea?

That night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, watching the moon rabbit run outside the window. The sky gradually turned a pale white, and the golden crow slowly took flight, ushering in a new day.

Li Xinyue got up and washed up. Looking at her bloodshot eyes in the bronze mirror, filled with exhaustion, she sighed deeply.

crunch—

Li Hanyi pushed open the door and entered, carrying a bowl of millet porridge and a plate of green vegetables. She noticed that her mother looked tired.

She quickly stepped forward and took Li Xinyue's hand, saying, "Mother, why do you look so unwell? Has your injury flared up again? I'll go find Bai Li right now."

With that, Li Hanyi turned to leave.

Upon hearing the name Bai Li, Li Xinyue's heart skipped a beat. She grabbed Li Hanyi's wrist and said, "Hanyi, don't go. Mother's injuries are nothing serious. She just didn't sleep well last night. It's alright."

"Really?" Li Hanyi stopped and carefully examined Li Xinyue's expression. Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, she felt relieved and said, "Mother, is something on your mind? If you're feeling uncomfortable, just tell me."

Li Xinyue smiled bitterly to herself. She didn't even understand what she was talking about.

I can't very well tell my daughter that I seem to have developed feelings for a man younger than her!

That's right, I'm not romantically attracted to him at all. He's my savior, and I'm just grateful, which is why I pay extra attention to him. That's all.

Li Xinyue comforted herself in this way, released Li Hanyi's hand, and looked up at the window: "Mother has nothing on her mind, she's just a little upset."

•

"

Li Hanyi assumed that she was still feeling guilty for not being able to save Xiao Ruofeng, so she didn't ask any more questions. She simply put down the porridge and vegetables in her hand and said, "Mother, you should eat something first."

Li Xinyue took the bowl and ate in small bites, but her thoughts were still on last night's dream.
