118: wake
That night.
The bright moon hung high in the sky.
Not long after Xin Ru Yin, who had reverted to Liu Ruyan's true form, left, Nangong Xueli slowly woke up.
Looking at the blood-stained, torn clothes on the ground, Nangong Xueli was stunned for a moment, quickly realized what had happened, and then her pretty face instantly turned red.
She subtly shifted her body and realized that her foot was still on Lin Yang's body. She immediately pulled it back in a hurry.
“Disciple, you’re awake? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?”
Seeing Nangong Xueli awaken, Yao Mu also quickly asked with concern.
“Master… what happened earlier?”
Nangong Xueli shook her head, her face flushed with shyness, and timidly asked Yao Mu in the ring.
“Alas, I’m not sure what happened afterward…”
Hearing Nangong Xueli’s question, Yao Mu also shook her head helplessly.
Earlier, she was feeling distressed for Nangong Xueli when suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and she was struck by a mysterious force, then fell into a coma.
When she woke up, she found that both Nangong Xueli and Lin Yang had already fainted.
So, regarding the situation of these two days, she only knew what happened on the first day.
However, even so, Yao Mu had already mentally filled in the entire second half of the events.
“Men, they are all no good!”
Recalling the scene of Lin Yang charging at her earlier, Yao Mu was furious and secretly cursed under her breath.
“Master, don’t say that… Lin Yang Gege, he couldn’t help it. It’s all my fault for feeding him that poisonous fruit; that’s why this happened…”
Although Nangong Xueli was the one who lost her innocence, she did not blame Lin Yang for it. Instead, she was very understanding and defended Lin Yang.
However, as a maiden experiencing such a thing for the first time, Nangong Xueli still couldn't help but feel some shyness and awkwardness.
“Master, what do we do now?”
Feeling a bit at a loss, Nangong Xueli could only once again seek advice from the experienced Yao Mu.
“If I’m not mistaken, while you two were unconscious, the Demon Immortal Legacy had already actively entered your bodies.”
“Since the Legacy is obtained, then quickly leave this place!”
Hearing Yao Mu’s words, Nangong Xueli said somewhat awkwardly, “Just leave like this? Is it not good to leave Lin Yang Gege here alone?”
“What? Do you want to wait for him to wake up and do it again?”
Yao Mu said with a strange expression.
“No, no… Master, why would you say that?”
The blush on Nangong Xueli’s pretty face, which had finally faded a little, was stimulated by Yao Mu’s words and once again turned crimson like a fiery cloud, causing her to lower her head.
It was this inadvertent lowering of her head that made Nangong Xueli notice the white stockings on her legs.
“This is…”
Nangong Xueli remembered that she shouldn't have this style of socks.
“I know, Lin Yang Gege must have put them on for me, afraid I’d get cold!”
Nangong Xueli’s beautiful eyes looked at the sleeping Lin Yang next to her, not expecting that he was still thinking of her even while doing such a thing.
What a considerate and warm man!
However, the more he was like this, the more she didn't know how to face him when he woke up.
Just thinking about the awkward scene that would occur when the two of them faced each other under the tree made Nangong Xueli feel like her brain was about to burn out.
“Forget it, I’ll listen to Master and leave here first…”
Finally, Nangong Xueli decided to follow Yao Mu's advice and shyly fled before Lin Yang woke up.
However, before leaving, she thoughtfully took out a clean blanket and gently covered Lin Yang.
Only after repeatedly confirming that he was merely temporarily exhausted and unconscious, and that the toxins in his body had been completely expelled, did Nangong Xueli leave this place with peace of mind.
…
“So sore…”
“This scoundrel, he almost chiseled off this old lady’s jaw…”
At this moment, Liu Ruyan, who had left first, rubbed her still-sore jaw, recalling the previous scene. In her exasperation, there was also a hint of indignation.
“Damn Lin Yang, why is it from bottom to top for his fiancée, but when it’s my turn, it’s from top to bottom?!”
This was too unfair!
Lin Yang's treatment of her was clearly different from his treatment of Nangong Xueli.
When he was with her, his movements were significantly rougher.
The more Liu Ruyan thought about it, the angrier she got. She wished she could go back and find Lin Yang right now to thoroughly ravage him and get her revenge.
“Forget it, at this point, he should be waking up soon. I’ll just wait until I have a chance later to settle the score with that brat…”
However, after much thought, Liu Ruyan was afraid that if she turned back now, she might coincidentally run into Lin Yang waking up, and that would be too embarrassing.
Just as Liu Ruyan was leaving resentfully, she suddenly paused, remembering an important matter.
“Oh no, I left the recording orb there!”
The previous battle was too intense, completely scrambling her mind, and she left in too much of a hurry, causing her to forget the recording orb...
…
At the same time.
As Lin Yang and the others were dividing the Demon Immortal Legacy, there was also movement outside the barrier.
Crack!
The crowd, who had been patiently waiting outside the barrier, suddenly heard a strange sound and immediately turned their heads.
“The barrier’s power is fading!”
Someone exclaimed.
“Someone must have obtained the Demon Immortal Legacy!”
Everyone exchanged glances, their eyes sparkling with brilliance.
One must know that the existence of the Demon Immortal Tomb barrier was to protect the Demon Immortal Legacy.
Now that the barrier suddenly showed signs of self-dissipation, there could only be one possible explanation for this phenomenon.
That is, someone inside had obtained the Legacy of that ancient Heavenly Immortal!
Without an object to protect, the barrier lost its reason for existence and thus began to disintegrate and dissipate on its own.
Understanding the whole story, everyone began to display their Divine Abilities, sending messages back to their respective factions.
“I’ve already sent the message back to the Nether Palace. I believe the Palace Master will arrive very soon!”
“Our Fenglei Temple’s Temple Master has already personally set off!”
“The Yang Family’s Patriarch has already gone to invite the Old Ancestor out of seclusion!”
“…”
Watching the Martial Saints who were all sending messages to their backing forces, Qin Shan and Liu Song of the Holy Emperor Sect also gathered together, their brows tightly furrowed as they secretly conversed.
“I never expected that someone would obtain the Demon Immortal Legacy so quickly…”
“The Sect Master is in death seclusion, and Saintess is still recovering from her severe injuries. The emergence of the Demon Immortal Legacy at this time is unfavorable to us…”
“Unfavorable or not, we must seize it! First, notify the sect to send a few old geezers over to hold the fort…”
Just as various factions were plotting, Si Guoyi of the Celestial Immortal Academy’s expression subtly changed, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
Others didn’t understand the situation inside, but he knew it clearly.
Lin Yang and Nangong Xueli had just obtained the map to the specific location of the Demon Immortal Legacy inside not long ago.
Immediately after, the barrier guarding the Demon Immortal Tomb showed signs of self-disintegration.
If one were to say there was no connection between the two, probably no one would believe it.
“Damn Lin Yang, getting the undying medicine and Nangong Xueli’s heart isn’t enough, he even got the Demon Immortal Legacy!”
“You, a country bumpkin from the Eastern Desolate, how can you be so lucky?”
Just you wait, I’ll have Night Shadow and the Immortal Qi Clone take the killing puppets to find you!
Your good Luck is about to run out…
…

[Plundered Luck points +33]

Lin Yang, in a daze, was awakened by the continuous System prompts in his Sea of Consciousness and couldn't help but mumble.
“My damn, irresistible charm, even when I’m asleep, people are jealous of me…”
