However, upon seeing Xi Yue was hurting and experiencing qi deviation, Ji Mingyu jumped in to help without a second thought.
He gently reached out his fingers, carefully wiped the sweat from the girl’s forehead, and pulled her closer into his arms.
Xi Yue continued tempering her physique and advancing her cultivation, but there would be no danger going forward.
Xi Yue’s slender figure lay in his embrace, showing no resistance. Even when she touched his body, she nuzzled into his arms as if she were attached to him, with a look of reassurance on her face.
Ji Mingyu’s heart suddenly became as soft as a cloud. He even caught himself thinking he wanted to hold onto the girl for the rest of his life and never let go.
“Tell me your name.” The man’s deep voice sounded in the ears of the dazed Xi Yue. It was asking but seemingly an irrefutable command.
Her rosy lips moved slightly. After a while, she softly murmured, “Xi…”
In a daze, Xi Yue managed to utter just one word; the rest faded away.
However, Ji Mingyu trembled all over.
He thought of the ring with a promise engraved on it. “Xi & Yu will never be separated.”
Every time those words surfaced in his mind, his heart ached uncontrollably, as if he had lost the most important thing in his life.
She shares the same name, Xi… Is the girl before me the person I have searched for in the past ten years?
Yes! It must be!
If not, why else would I have changed completely the moment I laid eyes on her, wanting her so bad, no matter what?
They were supposed to be one… She was supposed to belong to him, Ji Mingyu.
Ji Mingyu’s eyes were so intense that there was even an imperceptible hint of joy and sweetness deep in them.
“Xi’er! From now on, you are my Xi’er. The only woman for me, Ji Mingyu!”
…
When Xi Yue woke up again, she found herself still lying in Ji Mingyu’s bedroom.
However, the room was empty. The torn clothes on her were replaced.
Xi Yue looked around and frowned in confusion.
Her last memory from yesterday was the moment when the spiritual energy inside her went out of control. She chose to break through despite everything, and then she was overwhelmed by an all-encompassing pain and hatred.
What happened next? What exactly happened?
“Not bad! You’re truly worthy to be the one who hatched me. In just half a year, you have advanced from the Gold Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage. Tsk, once this fact is well known, all the elites in the Siam Continent will be shocked.”
Is that the voice of Little Red Bird?
Xi Yue was stunned. She immediately checked her body with her consciousness, and then her eyes widened in shock.
She had attained the advancement, landing firmly in the early level of the Nascent Soul Stage. Her original Golden Core Stage had advanced perfectly, and there were no flaws in this rapid progression. Even now, she had perfectly moved from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage.
But, how is this possible? I’m not ready both physically and mentally!
Being able to barely make the cut is already a narrow escape, a stroke of sheer luck. How did I manage a perfect advancement?
Xi Yue asked Little Red Bird this question. However, Little Red Bird was confused as well. “I was affected by the anger of the man who took a fancy to you yesterday. I barely managed to escape into the void at the last moment, and then I passed out. I have no idea what happened to you after that.”
