Chapter 332: Fully Recovered
Arriving at the main temple, Feng Xiyan stumbled and almost fell flat on his face when he saw Bai Hanyun sitting on the altar while the devotees bowed and prayed in the hall.
"..." What does she do up there?
While he stood there speechless due to the weird scene in front of him, Feng Wu walked up to him and clasped his fists. "Master."
Looking away from Bai Hanyun, Feng Xiyan asked, "What happened here? Why is Miss Bai... sitting on the altar?"
Knowing his Master’s feelings at the moment, Feng Wu calmly explained, "Because we were in a hurry, Fairy Bai forgot to put on her veiled hat and was recognized by the crowd."
"After talking with them for a while, Fairy Bai no longer seemed afraid and climbed up to the altar. She has been sitting there since the afternoon."
After listening to Feng Wu’s explanation, Feng Xiyan pondered for a moment and asked the Yin Mirror, ’Yin Mirror, do you know what she is doing up there?’
Sensing his worry and curiosity, the Yin Mirror replied, [She is helping my husband absorb merits. I suppose she is really in a rush to return to her world.]
When Feng Xiyan heard this, he felt conflicted.
On one hand, he wanted to keep Bai Hanyun in this world forever. On the other hand, he didn’t want to make her sad and wished to help her return to her own world.
As Feng Xiyan’s immortal artifact, the Yin Mirror clearly sensed his mixed feelings and gloomy mood.
She sighed softly and said, [Master, since you have already made your decision, then just do it. There is no need to overthink.]
Listening to her words, Feng Xiyan’s mind cleared. He looked at Bai Hanyun, clenched his hands, and said, ’Thank you for your reminder.’
The Yin Mirror chuckled and closed her eyes as she sat inside his dantian. [I’m glad to be of help.]
Sensing that the Yin Mirror had fallen asleep again, Feng Xiyan turned to Feng Wu and said, "Feng Wu, protect Miss Bai and don’t leave her side. I will come to pick her up before we depart for Xiquan City."
Feng Wu clasped his fists and responded, "This subordinate accepts the order."
After staring at Bai Hanyun one last time, Feng Xiyan resolutely turned around and left the main temple.
Sitting on the rooftop, Gui Ying raised his brows slightly as he stared at the golden stars floating in the air in front of him.
"Oh~ the wheel of fate has finally turned again. It seems the appearance of Fairy Bai this time is indeed a blessing for Great General Feng."
While Gui Ying, Feng Wu, and Yi Bai remained in the temple to protect Bai Hanyun, Feng Xiyan, Tuluo Cheng, and the generals were busy with their war preparations.
With everyone occupied with their own tasks, time flew by in the blink of an eye.
Two days later, Feng Xiyan woke up early. After putting on his black-and-gold armor, gifted by Bai Hanyun, and grabbing his black sword from the weapon rack, he placed the remaining nine swords into his Qiankun Pouch.
Leaving only a few daily items in the tent, he walked out and mounted his warhorse.
Looking at the two soldiers guarding the tent, he said, "Inform General Zhan and Military Advisor Tuluo that this general is going to the temple to pick up Miss Bai. Tell them to wait for us outside the city. We will depart the moment this general returns."
The two soldiers clasped their fists and responded in unison, "Yes, Great General."
After giving his orders, Feng Xiyan left the barracks and rode straight to the temple. Although he had gone there yesterday to check on Bai Hanyun, he hadn’t spoken to her, and now, he truly missed her.
While Feng Xiyan rushed to the temple to pick her up, Bai Hanyun finally opened her eyes.
Sensing the warm energy circulating in her body, Bai Hanyun’s eyes lit up as she asked, ’Yang Mirror, how is it?’
Sitting cross-legged inside her dantian, the Yang Mirror opened his eyes. The moment he saw his body shrouded in bright, densely packed golden light particles, his eyes lit up.
He stood up, stretched his body, and replied excitedly, [Girl, we have succeeded! In just one day, my energy has completely recovered!]
When Bai Hanyun heard this, she couldn’t hold back her excitement and asked, ’Can we go back to my world now?’
The Yang Mirror nodded. [Yes! You can go back now if you want.]
Thinking about her plan to visit Xiquan City, Bai Hanyun said, ’Let’s wait until we return from Xiquan City. Since Feng Xiyan wants to establish his own power and take over the city, I need to see it for myself. Once we return, I can prepare the things they need most.’
Listening to her explanation, the Yang Mirror nodded and replied, [Alright. Just let me know when you are ready to return to your world. I’m ready anytime.]
After saying that, he looked at the outside world through Bai Hanyun’s eyes and added, [There is still a lot of merit here.]
[After we return to your world, I can continue absorbing it. If I recover my cultivation and break through another realm, I might even be able to open a space gate for you to travel between worlds without limit.]
Bai Hanyun’s eyes widened in surprise at his words. ’Really?! Yang Mirror, you are amazing!’
The Yang Mirror lifted his chin proudly. [Of course. This lord is a heavenly-grade immortal artifact that could connect countless worlds. In any cultivation world, I could slap an Ascension Realm cultivator into a pulp with one slap.]
Bai Hanyun didn’t know how powerful those Ascension Realm cultivators were, but judging from the name, they sounded formidable. If the Yang Mirror can casually slap those cultivators into a pulp, then he must be very strong.
Pleased by the Yang Mirror’s strength, she asked, ’Then how long will it take for you to break through to another realm?’
