Looking at the surging black smoke, Tang Liâs expression turned cold.
Qi Yihan asked her, âWhy did the black smoke cross the line?â
Previously, Qi Yihan and Tang Li had checked the information about this world. The Land of Darkness was separated from the Land of Light by a barrier. As long as the four great clans did not run in, this barrier could prevent the black smoke from invading.
âSomeone must have touched this barrier.â
âCould it be Qi Lingxuan?â When Situ Jin said that, the four of them looked displeased.
Tang Li snorted and said, âIf he really dares to touch the barrier, he will definitely be corroded by the black smoke. When that happens, he will be a zombie.â
As soon as Tang Li finished speaking, she suddenly sensed something and said to the three of them, âLeave this place first. Iâll go find Qi Lingxuan.â
With that, she quickly ran to the side.
However, before long, her body felt light. Then, her body was thrown into the air and she sat on the white tiger.
Qi Yihan, who had transformed into a white tiger, said, âSit tight. Where is it? Tell me, Iâll take you there.â
Tang Li smiled and told him the direction.
Then, she laid on his back and hugged his fur. âWhat if youâre in danger?â
âI have the ability of the White Tiger now. Donât underestimate the patriarch of the clan here.â
Tang Li smiled and nodded.
Qi Yihan ran for nearly half an hour and stopped at a swamp that was corroded by black smoke.
Tang Li jumped down from Qi Yihanâs back and gave him a jade pendant. âThis jade pendant has a purifying effect. As long as the black smoke reaches your side, it will automatically be purified.â
âWhat about you?â
âI still have treasures.â
After saying that, Tang Li held his hand and flew towards the swamp that was corroded by the black smoke.
In the middle of the swamp, a very large dragon was writhing and struggling in the black smoke, roaring in pain.
Tang Li and Qi Yihan did not approach immediately. Instead, they stopped a few meters away from him.
Qi Yihan looked over and asked, âCan he resist this black smoke?â
âHe canât,â Tang Li said. âThe black smoke here is different from the black smoke on Earth. But heâs a little better than Qin Mingyue. He didnât get corroded immediately.â
Qi Yihan nodded and asked, âIf he becomes a zombie, can we still bring him back?â
âIâm not sure about that.â
Qi Yihan thought for a while and asked, âIs there a way to keep the black smoke in his body? So that whenever he does something daughter, we can punish him with it. This way, he probably wonât have time to harm people.â
Tang Li tilted her head to look at Qi Yihan, who had become calm when he said this. The corners of her lips curled up as she rubbed her chin and nodded. âGood idea. If not for the fact that heâs the Child of Destiny of our world, I would have made him disappear a long time ago.â
With that, she extended her hand towards Qi Lingxuan and quickly drew with her fingers in midair. A golden light flashed in the rolling black smoke. In the next moment, it flew towards Qi Lingxuan at an extremely fast speed.
After the golden light disappeared into Qi Lingxuanâs body, Tang Li threw another talisman at him. In the next moment, the three of them were outside the black smoke.
The moment Qi Lingxuan was outside the black smoke, he transformed into a human. At the same time, he covered his head and rolled on the ground, wailing and begging Tang Li, âFourth Aunt, save me. I feel like thereâs something in my body devouring me.â
âHumph!â
Tang Li snorted and said coldly, âYou asked for it. If you donât mess with the rules here, this black smoke will not cross the line.â
âFourth Aunt, I was wrong. As long as you save me, I wonât mess around anymore.â
âNo chance.â
âAh⦠Mm⦠Help, Fourth Uncle, help me!â
The muscles on Qi Lingxuanâs face started to twitch. It was obvious that the black smoke was already devouring his consciousness.
Tang Li and Qi Yihan looked at him coldly. After he fainted, Tang Li and Qi Yihan took him away.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The three of them returned to the palace of the White Tiger Clan. Situ Jin and Qin Mingyue looked at Qi Lingxuan, who had a black totem on his face, and guessed what was going on.
âWas that black smoke caused by Qi Lingxuan?â
âYes.â
âIn that case, whatâs the point of keeping this person?â After Situ Jin finished speaking, he was about to slap him to death.
Qi Yihan stopped him. âThis person canât die yet.â
Situ Jin frowned.
Tang Li said, âWeâve read the ancient books here before. The Land of Darkness and our place are blocked by a barrier built by the four celestial masters. Now that the field has been destroyed by Qi Lingxuan, we have to immediately gather the four celestial masters to build a new barrier.â
Situ Jin and Qin Mingyue would definitely cooperate immediately.
âWhat do we need to do? Should we inform the celestial master immediately?â
âWhen the time comes, the celestial masters of the four great clans each have to cast a spell on their own ancestral altar.â
âAre you sure they know the spell?â
âItâs alright. Iâll send a voice transmission to tell them what to do.â
The two of them were relieved.
They had a special way of contacting each other, so they quickly got in touch with their celestial masters.
Then, it was the celestial master from the Green Dragon Clan.
Tang Li woke Qi Lingxuan up.
Qi Lingxuan was overjoyed to find that he was still conscious.
However, in the next second, he felt that his body could not move. The feeling of being swallowed came again, and his expression changed.
At that moment, Tang Li said to him, âIf you want to live, get the celestial master of the Green Dragon Clan to go to the ancestral altar immediately and cast a spell with the other three celestial masters to rebuild the barrier that you destroyed.â
âWill you save me when I do that?â Qi Lingxuan was obviously more concerned about this.
Tang Li looked at him and smiled mockingly. âYes.â
âAlright.â
With that, he quickly used a special method to contact the celestial master of the Azure Dragon Clan.
Tang Li immediately went to the ancestral altar.
Then, she used voice transmission to tell the other three masters what to do.
The four of them spent almost a day repairing the barrier.
At that moment, Tang Li was so tired that she could not even move her fingers.
Qi Yihan had been guarding under the altar. When he saw that she was about to fall, he rushed up and hugged her. His body was trembling from worry. âLi, are you alright?â
Tang Li forced a smile at him and said, âIâm so tired. I want to sleep.â
With that, she closed her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she was already in her and Qi Yihanâs new room.
At this moment, the door opened.
Tang Li quickly looked up and saw Qi Yihan walk in.
Seeing that she was awake, Qi Yihan quickly walked to the bed and sat down. He reached out to hold her hand on the blanket and heaved a sigh of relief. âLi, you finally woke up.â
Tang Li looked at him in a daze and asked, âHow long have I been sleeping? Why is your beard growing out?â
With that, she reached out her other hand, wanting to touch the beard on his chin.
Qi Yihan lowered his head to let her touch him.
He said, âYou slept for three days and three nights.â
âThat long?â
âYeah.â
Qi Yihan let go of her hand and said, âIâll bring you something to eat first. You havenât eaten for a few days.â
Hearing that, Tang Li felt like she could eat an entire cow right now.
âGet the kitchen to make more meat for me later. I want to eat meat the most now.â
Hearing that, Qi Yihan smiled. âAlright.â
Qi Yihan quickly brought Tang Li a bowl of porridge with some sugar. Tang Li gulped it down in no time. She said to him with an aggrieved expression, âIâm still hungry.â
Qi Yihan touched her stomach. âWait, your stomach wonât be able to take so much food at once.â
Tang Li nodded.
Qi Yihan then changed her clothes and carried her to wash up.
While she was washing up, Qi Yihan shaved as well.
Before he could shave, Tang Li touched his chin and said, âWhy is your beard so long.â
Qi Yihan held her hand and kissed it. âI was so worried about you that I forgot to shave it.â
A sweet feeling welled up in Tang Liâs heart. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the chin.
After kissing, she touched her lips and said, âStabbing lips.â
Qi Yihan was amused by her cute actions. He rubbed her head and said, âSomething happened to the four great clans these past few days. Iâll tell you after you wash up.â
âAlright.â
After the two of them left the bathroom, Qi Yihan brought Tang Li a plate of digestible desserts.
As Tang Li ate her desserts, Qi Yihan told her what had happened in the past few days.
âAfter you repaired the barrier, everyone knows that it was Qi Lingxuan who destroyed the barrier. The people of the four clans hate him to the core. Our three clans attacked the Azure Dragon Clan and now Qi Lingxuan is in jail.â
When Tang Li heard this, not only did she not pity him, she even gloated. âThen who is in charge of the Green Dragon Clan now?â
âFor the time being, Situ Jin is in charge of it. The celestial masters of the few clans are all unconscious because of repairing the barrier just like you.â
Tang Li nodded. âIt takes a lot of energy to repair the barrier.â
Tang Li thought for a moment and said, âWhen I recover, weâll leave. When the time comes, weâll hand these big clans over to the original heads. Iâll think of a way to erase the traces of us being here.â
âAlright.â
The news that Tang Li had woken up quickly reached Situ Jin and Qin Mingyueâs ears. The two of them immediately rushed over.
Tang Li told them about leaving.
Situ Jin definitely agreed. He asked, âSince weâre leaving this place, what do we need to prepare?â
âThereâs no need to prepare anything. When the time comes, come to my palace and Iâll take you away.â
âAlright.â After saying that, Situ Jin held Qin Mingyueâs hand and smiled happily. âMingyue, letâs get married when we get back.â
Qin Mingyue looked at his expectant gaze and lowered her eyes. However, her heart was filled with bitterness.
Tang Li looked at the two of them and said, âLetâs leave tomorrow. Weâll stay here for the night.â
Qin Mingyue looked up at Tang Li with gratitude in her eyes.
Since they were leaving, the two of them stayed in the guest room tonight.
Qin Mingyue cooked a table of dishes for Situ Jin.
Holding a glass of wine, Situ Jin smiled at her. âWhy are you suddenly in a mood to cook?â
Qin Mingyue pursed her lips and said, âI just want you to try my cooking.â
Situ Jin nodded and picked up his chopsticks to eat something. He nodded. âNot bad.â
Qin Mingyue smiled happily. She raised the glass in her hand and said to him, âSitu Jin, let me toast you. Thank you for liking me.â
Situ Jin drank with her.
Then, Qin Mingyue poured another glass of wine for the two of them and raised it again. âSitu Jin, I apologize on behalf of my insensible sister.â
Situ Jin suddenly grabbed her wrist and asked with a smile, âMingyue, why are you taking the initiative to toast me tonight? Whatâs on your mind?â
Qin Mingyueâs hand trembled and some of the wine in the glass spilled out.
She quickly looked away, but a charming blush appeared on her face. She said, âI donât have anything on my mind.â
Situ Jin grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him. He leaned towards her and stopped when their lips were a few centimeters away. His voice was bewitching. âReally?â
Qin Mingyue rolled her eyes uncomfortably and nodded.
In the next second, her lips were sealed.
After passionately kissing, Situ Jin said vaguely, âBut I have something on my mind. Will you give me that?â
âUmmmâ¦â
