Yu Huang was sensitive to pain and her phoenix wings were almost bitten off by Sheng Xiao, so how could she not feel pain?
However, Yu Huang was already used to pain.
However, when she heard Sheng Xiaoâs words of concern and thought about how ruthless he was back then, Yu Huang felt aggrieved.
Yu Huangâs eyes turned red.
Sheng Xiaoâs heart ached when he saw Yu Huangâs eyes turn red. He wished he could slap himself.
How could he be such a jerk?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He promised to dote on Yu Huang, but in the end, he hurt her so badly. âIâm sorry.â Sheng Xiao didnât know what else to say to express his guilt.
Yu Huang wasnât a pretentious person. She turned her head and rubbed her eyes hard. Then, she punched Sheng Xiao hard and scolded, âIf you dare to hurt me again, weâll get a divorce.â
How could a man beat up his wife like he did?!
They couldnât get a divorce. Sheng Xiao quickly held Yu Huangâs hand and kissed as he coaxed her, âThere wonât be a next time. Believe me, I wonât be so stupid in the future.â
Donor really didnât want to see the two of them show off their love anymore, so he hurriedly interrupted their interaction. âAlright, stop being lovey-dovey. Tell me what happened to you after you separated from us.â
Yu Huang pulled her hand out of Sheng Xiaoâs palm.
However, Sheng Xiao insisted on holding it. He only felt at ease when he held Yu Huangâs hand.
Yu Huang didnât break free from Sheng Xiaoâs palm this time.
Sheng Xiao organized his words and said, âThat day, the male Winged Fish launched a tsunami attack. In order to protect you guys, I used my dragon body to block the largest wave of tsunami attacks. But that wave of attacks was so powerful that I fainted on the spot.â
âAfter I fainted, I was washed into the sea. I thought I would die, but when I woke up, I found myself on a wide plain.â
âIn the beginning, I thought that I was washed to a plain on the Northwest Continent by the waves. But when I realized that the sky here was always dark, and that nighttime never came, I realized that I might not be in the Kunlun Mystic Realm.â
Sheng Xiao stood up and looked around. Then, he frowned and asked, âAccording to my timekeeping method, Iâve lived on this land for about a month, right?â
Sheng Xiao wasnât sure if the time on this land was the same as in the Kunlun Mystic Realm where Yu Huang and the others were.
Yu Huang told him, âMore or less. Itâs been a month and eight days since we separated.â In the past month or so, they had been absorbing the rib fragments of the Kunlun Divine Master.
Sheng Xiao nodded. âThatâs right. But I still donât know where we are. Oh right, how did you guys arrive here?â
When Sheng Xiao woke up, he was already on this land. He still didnât know what this place was.
Donor told him, âThis is the world hidden at the bottom of the deep sea by the Kunlun Divine Master. Itâs the burial ground of the ancient merman.â
Sheng Xiao was shocked. He looked up at the black eye of the storm in the sky and shook his head. âYouâre saying that this land is hidden under the sea?â
That was possible?
âAlthough it sounds unbelievable, this land is indeed hidden under the sea.â Yu Huang answered Sheng Xiaoâs second question. She said, âWe dived into the deep sea and came here.â
Sheng Xiao asked again, âBut thereâs a barrier line in the deep sea. How did you guys pass through the barrier line? Did you kill the male Winged Fish?â
Sheng Xiao didnât think that Yu Huang and the others could defeat the male Winged Fish.
He had personally fought the male Winged Fish. In his opinion, the male Winged Fishâs combat strength wasnât inferior to that of the Azure Dragon.
âKunlun helped us.â Yu Huang quickly handed the remaining Divine Master rib fragment to Sheng Xiao and explained, âKunlun divided the Divine Master rib I found at the bottom of the sea into eight pieces and gave each of us one. This piece is yours.â
âAfter we successfully absorbed the Divine Master fragment, our bodies were tainted with the aura of the Kunlun Divine Master, so the barrier line let us in.â
âI see.â After Sheng Xiao took the fragment, he nodded at Kunlun and thanked him solemnly. âThank you, Kunlun.â
Kunlun snorted and said angrily, âYou almost killed Yu Huang. Donât talk to me for the time being.â He was unhappy when he thought about how Sheng Xiao almost killed Yu Huang.
Seeing that Kunlun was angry, Yu Huang didnât intend to put in a good word for Sheng Xiao to get Kunlunâs forgiveness. She felt that it wasnât a bad thing to let Kunlun give Sheng Xiao a hard time.
If not, Sheng Xiao wouldnât learn his lesson.
Sheng Xiao felt even more guilty when he heard Kunlunâs words. He clenched Yu Huangâs fingers subconsciously. He only felt relieved when he realized that Yu Huang had not shaken off his hand.
Donor noticed Sheng Xiaoâs uneasiness and wanted to distract Sheng Xiao, so he quickly asked, âWhat did you encounter in the past month?â
As expected, when they heard Donorâs question, Kunlun, Yu Huang, and the others became curious and forgot about the confrontation just now.
Sheng Xiao knew that Donor was helping him out, so he gave Donor a grateful look and said, âI only discovered this merman statue after walking on this land for about four days.â
Sheng Xiao suddenly lowered his head and asked Yu Huang, âDonât you think this merman looks a little like Na Luo?â
Nodding her head, Yu Huang said, âI realized it.â
âI discovered it and I suspected that there was some connection between this ancient merman and Na Luo, so I wanted to check it out. However, just as I was about to approach that statue, I met that tomb guardian beast.â
At the mention of this, Sheng Xiao frowned.
Clearly, it was a very unpleasant memory.
Sheng Xiao continued, âFor some reason, a piece of the tomb guardâs tail was broken. When I met it, the wound on its tail was showing signs of serious infection.â
At that time, because the tail of the Azure Dragon was seriously infected, a few parts of its tailbone were exposed. The rotten flesh stuck to its tail, making it look disgusting and pitiful.
âThe Slaughter Azure Dragon was very ferocious. As soon as it saw me, it started to pursue me. I almost died under its demonic claws. I escaped with injuries and hid, but I only hid for ten days before it found me again. But in the end, I was lucky enough to kill it.â
This was just an excuse Sheng Xiao was using to comfort Yu Huang, Donor, and his other friends.
In fact, Sheng Xiao had almost died under the Slaughter Azure Dragonâs claw. In the critical moment, the power left in the depths of his soul by Yu Aofeng saved him again.
Sheng Xiao didnât want to elaborate on the danger. It would only make Yu Huang and the others feel heartbroken.
Donor suggested, âSince you killed the Azure Dragon, why was your consciousness possessed by him?â
Sheng Xiao pursed his lips and said in frustration, âI underestimated the cultivation level of the Azure Dragon.â
After tens of thousands of years of cultivation, the Slaughter Azure Dragon was already a level-ten super demon beast. It was a super demon beast that could fight against a Prime Emperor powerhouse. How could a Grand Master like Sheng Xiao be its match?
âAlthough I was lucky enough to kill the Azure Dragon, the soul power of the Azure Dragon was still very powerful. After I killed him, he took advantage of my weak state of mind to barge into my Spiritual Abode and try to possess me.â
âThese days, Iâve been fighting against the soul of that Slaughter Azure Dragon. Thatâs why when you met me earlier, my memories were in chaos.â
After hearing the whole story, everyone sympathized with Sheng Xiao.
âItâs been hard on you.â Donor patted Sheng Xiaoâs shoulder and asked, âAre there any other tomb guardian beasts here besides the Azure Dragon?â
Sheng Xiao shook his head. âAccording to the memories of the Azure Dragon Demon Beast, there should only be one tomb guardian beast here.â
Yu Huang and the others heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this.
The strongest tomb guardian beast had been killed by Sheng Xiao, so things would probably go smoother next.
Sheng Xiao asked them, âWhy are you guys here? Are you guys here for me?â There was a marriage line between Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang. It wasnât surprising that Yu Huang could find him.
Yu Huang shook her head and said, âWe accidentally found out that the burial ground of the ancient merman was hidden in the deep sea. We thought about how Na Luo was an ancient merman and might have had some relationship with this tombstone. We also thought about how Beatrice was a merman and might be able to obtain some golden opportunity here, so we decided to go to the deep sea to search for the burial ground of the ancient merman.â
