Chapter 273

In the Sacred Maiden’s Palace of the Wilderness Holy Hall.

Xuanyuan Mo leaned against the bed, his hand still holding the white crystal. It had been one month. Were Xi and their babies doing fine? What on earth should he do to get into the divine stone and take Xi out?

While Xuanyuan Mo was holding the divine stone and missing Duanmu Xi, the divine stone’s faint light suddenly strengthened. It was so dazzling that Xuanyuan Mo couldn’t open his eyes. Then, the divine stone started to shake so violently that he couldn’t grasp it at all. The divine stone fell onto the bed, still shivering heavily.

Looking at the divine stone’s abnormal change, Xuanyuan Mo was stunned at first and then ravished with joy. He remembered that the same thing happened to the stone when Xi was sucked into it.

After a violent tremor, a person was tossed out of the divine stone. Xuanyuan Mo caught the person without thinking.

Xuanyuan Mo’s heart thumped as he looked at Duanmu Xi, whose eyes were closed. He didn’t hold tightly the girl he missed for a long time with delight until he felt her breath and heartbeat. He exerted so much strength as if to integrate her into her bones and blood.

“Xi…” Xuanyuan Mo called Duanmu Xi who was in his arms, but after he called her for a while, she was still not responding.

With a frown, Xuanyuan Mo stared at Duanmu Xi breathing steadily in his arms and eventually carried her out of the room with worry.

Xuanyuan Mo carried Duanmu Xi into Mei Luo’s room because at the moment, Situ Kong should be changing the dressing for Mei Luo here.

When Situ Kong and Mei Luo saw the woman carried in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms, they were both excited.

“Is… Is it Xi?” Mei Luo’s eyes were fixed on Duanmu Xi in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms and instantly became red.

“It’s Xi!” Situ Kong looked with delight at Duanmu Xi in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms, “Great. Great. Xi is finally back…” As he muttered, his eyes became red.

Listening to their exclaims, Xuanyuan Mo immediately said, “Yes. Xi is back.” He understood how they felt now. Just like him, they were worried about Xi for a month. Mei Luo also felt a sense of self-accusation apart from that.

Hearing that, Mei Luo shed a tear, “Wonderful. It’s great that she came back safe.” If anything untoward really happened to Xi because of her, she wouldn’t have the cheek to live in the world anymore.

Situ Kong looked at the unconscious Duanmu Xi in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms and furrowed his brows abruptly, “What’s wrong with Xi?”

Mei Luo’s heart clenched. She also looked worriedly at Xuanyuan Mo with a frown.

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo lowered his head to look at Duanmu Xi in his arms, “She has been unconscious since she came out of the divine stone. Somehow, no matter how I call her, she just won’t wake up. I’m a bit worried, so I hope you can take a look at her, Chief Master.”

Hearing that, Situ Kong immediately nodded, “Okay, put her down first.”

Xuanyuan Mo instantly put Duanmu Xi gently on the recliner.

Situ Kong walked to the recliner and sat on it. He put his fingers gently on Duanmu Xi’s slender wrist and closed his eyes to start taking her pulse.

After a while, Situ Kong finally slowly opened his eyes.

“How is it? Is Xi fine?” Mei Luo asked.

Looking at Mei Luo’s worried face, Situ Kong smiled, “She’s fine. She is asleep. Maybe she’s too tired so she can’t wake up.” Then, he put down Duanmu Xi’s wrist.

Mei Luo and Xuanyuan Mo were both relieved to hear that.

Situ Kong looked at Xuanyuan Mo, “The babies are fine too.”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo subconsciously looked down at Duanmu Xi’s belly bump, his cold face instantly softening.

“Take her back to have a rest! I think she will wake up tomorrow.” Situ Kong looked at Duanmu Xi’s sedate sleeping face with soft eyes.

Xuanyuan Mo nodded and stooped to carry Duanmu Xi in his arms. Staring at Situ Kong and Mei Luo, he said, “We’ll go back then.”

Situ Kong looked at Xuanyuan Mo and said with a smile, “If anything happens to Xi next time, just send someone to tell me. Don’t carry Xi around.” This time, Mo was too nervous. He carried Xi in his arms and ran over here. Fortunately, Xi was fine. If she was really seriously sick, he shouldn’t move her around.

Xuanyuan Mo’s face blushed at once. He stared at Situ Kong and said seriously, “I won’t do it again.” Then, Xuanyuan Mo carried Duanmu Xi out of the room.

Xuanyuan Mo returned to his room and put Duanmu Xi on the bed gently. After tucking her in, he also lay on his side next to Duanmu Xi.

He stroked Duanmu Xi’s quiet face and bent to kiss her on her slightly curly lips. His girl was finally back.

Staring at her sleeping soundly, Xuanyuan Mo curled his lips resignedly. They were finally reunited. Now, Xi was just sleeping on her own regardless of his longing for her.

Hearing Duanmu Xi breathing evenly, Xuanyuan Mo blinked his eyes with fatigue. He hadn’t slept for one month but he didn’t feel tired at all. However, now as she slept so soundly, he felt sleepy too. He gently held Duanmu Xi into his arms and then slowly fell asleep.

The next day, the morning sunshine shone through the screen window on Duanmu Xi’s sedate face. She showed a kind of holy beauty!

Xuanyuan Mo woke up early, but he didn’t get up. He just looked at Duanmu Xi’s sleeping face in a daze and didn’t seem to have enough of her.

Duanmu Xi turned over in a daze and got into Xuanyuan Mo’s arms. She seemed to feel warm and then subconsciously rubbed against Xuanyuan Mo’s arms.

Xuanyuan Mo stared at Duanmu Xi snuggling into his arms, his eyes darkening. He cracked a sinister smile, captured Duanmu Xi’s earlobe with his lips, and licked it gently.

Duanmu Xi, who was sleeping, felt hotter and hotter, and eventually felt as if her body were burning.

The scorching heat all over her body made Duanmu Xi let out a groan subconsciously. She rubbed against Xuanyuan Mo’s chest as if only in this way could the heat in her body be eased.

Her red face, coquettish groan and subconscious rubbing were testing Xuanyuan Mo’s willpower.

Eventually, as Duanmu Xi rubbed against Xuanyuan Mo again and again, he couldn’t hold back his desire anymore. He bent to anxiously kiss Duanmu Xi on her red lips. His tongue squeezed through her teeth and swept across her mouth.

Duanmu Xi gasped heavily and passively undertook Xuanyuan Mo’s passion.

Another moan escaped Duanmu Xi.

Hearing the coquettish moan, Xuanyuan Mo was turned on. Not satisfied with kissing anymore, he turned over and towered above Duanmu Xi. He tore off her belt and slipped his hand through the slot of her clothes.

Duanmu Xi finally felt something was wrong and then opened her eyes in confusion. Upon seeing the head buried against her neck, she woke up in fear instantly, grabbed the quilt quickly and cuddled up at the end of the bed.

Seeing that Duanmu Xi acted like a startled deer, Xuanyuan Mo had a glimmer of self-accusation in his eyes, “I’m sorry that I freaked you out!” His husky voice still contained unfading sexual desire and sounded extremely gentle.

Duanmu Xi felt delighted to see Xuanyuan Mo and then frowned with uncertainty, “You’re?” She was not sure if this was Mo Heng or Snow. They looked too much alike. Although Mo Heng was Snow’s prelife, she only loved Snow. And Mo Heng only belonged with Lou Xi, not with her.

Seeing that Duanmu Xi clearly recognized him but didn’t dare to recognize him, Xuanyuan Mo was stunned.

“It has been only one month and you don’t remember me now? I shouldn’t have missed you day and night.” His voice was full of aggrievance, which made Duanmu Xi feel guilty.

“Snow.” Duanmu Xi sprang with excitement at Xuanyuan Mo. It was Snow. It was her Snow!

Seeing that Duanmu Xi sprang at him, Xuanyuan Mo immediately caught her, “Be careful. You’re a mother-to-be. How can you act like a kid?” Although he was scolding her, his voice sounded rather gentle.

Duanmu Xi buried her face in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms and rubbed against him like a kitten, “Snow, I miss you so much!” It was so great. She finally met Snow again. It turned out that she could return to the Hantian Continent by jumping off the Immortal Killing Terrace. She just wondered if she returned here easily because she learned about the story of her and Snow in the previous life.

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s cute appearance, Xuanyuan Mo smiled and slightly tightened his arms around Duanmu Xi, saying gently, “I miss you too!”

“Oh right, Snow.” After they stayed together for a while, Duanmu Xi thought of what Xuanyuan Mo said just now, “You said I had been away for one month only?”

Xuanyuan Mo arched his brows, “Yeah, what’s wrong?”

Duanmu Xi’s eyes slightly dropped. It turned out that the images in the divine stone were all imaginary. Maybe she was the only thing that was real in there. It turned out that those figures rather than her were virtual souls. She didn’t stay there for 1,000 years but one month. It actually made sense. If she really stayed in the divine stone for 1,000 years, the babies would be 1,000 years old too.

Seeing that Duanmu Xi kept touching her belly, Xuanyuan Mo stroked her belly bump with worry, “What’s wrong? Is there anything wrong with your belly?”

Duanmu Xi looked at Xuanyuan Mo and smiled, “No, it’s just that I haven’t eaten anything for one month. I’m a bit hungry.”

Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes flickered. Was she not gonna tell him what had happened in the divine stone? Since she didn’t want to talk about it, he wouldn’t ask then. He would wait until she was willing to tell him.

With a smile on his face, Xuanyuan Mo bent to peck on Duanmu Xi’s lips, “Okay, I’ll go and get some food for you.” Then, he got off the bed and went to prepare food for Duanmu Xi.

Duanmu Xi looked at Xuanyuan Mo’s back, her dark purple eyes flickering. She hadn’t thought through how to tell him about what had happened in the divine stone. Neither was she sure whether to tell him or not. After all, he sealed everybody’s memories with his power of the beast god in order to forget the past. She decided to tell him at a proper time later.
