Chapter 102: Rescuing Chu Xi, a Reaction Ensues

"Xiao Yu, you... why are you spacing out?!"

Chu Xi chuckled, covering her mouth.

Watching Lin Yu, some of the sadness in her heart lessened.

At the very least, she could confirm that Lin Yu was fine, that he had safely walked in from outside.

His previously tattered body had miraculously healed.

The large hole in his chest was gone, and his arm had regrown.

Of course, what made her laugh was Lin Yu's expression when he looked at her.

It was exactly like the men who saw her true face for the first time.

Their eyes were fixed, filled with awe and infatuation.

However, strangely, at this moment, she did not feel the genuine annoyance and disgust towards Lin Yu's gaze as she had before.

On the contrary, a faint, almost imperceptible joy even stirred in her heart.

"Sister Chu Xi, with how you look, even a fairy descending to the mortal realm wouldn't be more beautiful! No wonder you could have a child like Junior Brother Luo!"

Lin Yu came back to his senses when he heard Chu Xi's laughter.

He sighed with genuine admiration.

However, the first half of the sentence was a heartfelt, truthful description, while the latter half was... a test.

Luo Xingchen might come in soon, and he wanted to gauge Chu Xi's attitude towards her son first.

With her favorability at maximum, he wasn't afraid that Chu Xi would do anything detrimental to him, he just wanted to see how to handle the situation.

"Hmph, you're the one who talks so smoothly!"

Seeing that Lin Yu was fine and could even joke, Chu Xi's mood improved greatly.

She let out a soft snort at Lin Yu's compliments, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

However, it quickly vanished, and she straightened her face, continuing:

"Xiao Yu, don't mention Luo Xingchen in front of me again. His surname is Luo, mine is Chu. His matters have nothing to do with me!"

Now, hearing the name Luo Xingchen, she felt a wave of disgust.

That space-time boundary marker was her way of putting an end to their relationship.

She would no longer take the item back, and as for their so-called mother-son relationship... it was better left unmentioned!

Especially when she thought of how Lin Yu had been tricked by him to this extent, an unidentifiable anger flared in her heart.

It would be best if she didn't see him again, otherwise, she might actually intervene to teach him a lesson and vent Lin Yu's anger.

Xiao Yu's personality was good; even after being tricked, he still spoke well of him.

With such a personality, he could easily be taken advantage of.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but speak again:

"Xiao Yu, for people like Luo Xingchen, you should stay away from them in the future, otherwise, you'll easily suffer losses!"

In her opinion, Lin Yu was still too naive.

He needed proper guidance.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even know if he was sold out by someone.

"Mhm, okay, then I'll listen to Sister Chu Xi!"

Lin Yu seized the opportunity, agreeing to Chu Xi's words.

At the same time, he became even more certain that Luo Xingchen no longer held much standing in Chu Xi's heart.

He had successfully brainwashed her.

Hehe, he didn't expect to be a 'green tea' this time, and... the effect seemed pretty good!

It seemed that all those novels he read in his previous life weren't in vain after all.

"Sister Chu Xi, how do I open this protective barrier? I now have a way to rescue you."

Having received the answer he wanted, Lin Yu immediately changed the subject.

He had enough space-time sand on his outer layer, enough to envelop both of them, and coupled with his Immortal Reincarnation Source Qi, his current recovery speed was sufficient to support both of them returning to the shore.

Moreover, the return speed could be even faster.

After all, his travel speed and Chu Xi's travel speed were vastly different.

"This is an absolute defense shield. You can open or enter it using a secret method from the outside! I'll transmit the secret method to you now."

Chu Xi replied immediately.

At the same time, she spoke a relatively simple secret incantation.

She had witnessed Lin Yu's entire journey in.

She knew that what he said was true.

She knew about space-time sand, had seen it, and understood its function, but she didn't possess any herself.

There was no other reason.

This miraculous substance was produced in the depths of the Time River.

Even looking across the entire vast and boundless starry sky, space-time sand could be considered an extremely rare and precious item.

It was not something she could possess.

Those who could find the entrance to the Time River were already as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.

And even if someone was lucky enough to enter it by chance, if they didn't possess enough power, trying to delve deep and acquire the treasures hidden within would simply be a fool's errand.

Just like her.

She had found the entrance to the Time River, but she couldn't go deeper.

She was even trapped in this peripheral area.

In the depths, not only would she face even more terrifying space-time power, but she would also have to be wary of the terrifying creatures within.

Creatures that could survive in the depths of the Time River were basically adults, and extremely terrifying.

Although she was surprised that Lin Yu could produce so much space-time sand, she didn't ask.

This was a personal secret.

"Sister Chu Xi, please wait a moment, I'll rescue you now!"

Upon receiving the secret incantation, Lin Yu quickly understood its principle.

This was a purely defensive shield, the kind that automatically activated in life-threatening situations.

Its level was very high; as for how high, he didn't know.

But its ability to withstand more than ten years of space-time power erosion without any change showed how strong its defense was.

However, he could be sure that this item definitely did not originate from the Eternal Continent.

It should have been brought from her own race—the White Demon Race.

This made him curious, how could someone who hadn't even become an immortal cross the stars to get here?

Of course, that wasn't the question to ask now.

It was better to get out first.

The secret incantation was simple, but it wasn't a human language; it should be unique to the White Demon Race.

But for cultivators, these were minor matters.

He quickly grasped the key points.

Lin Yu's hands moved like phantoms, rapidly striking out mysterious hand seals one after another, accurately hitting the incredibly sturdy protective light barrier.

With each hand seal, the surface of the light barrier would ripple like water, layer upon layer, interweaving.

As time passed, the once brilliant and indestructible protective light barrier gradually dimmed.

After only twenty short breaths, this once impenetrable shield finally melted away under the secret art, then completely dissipated into nothingness.

However, Lin Yu's actions did not stop there.

The moment the protective light barrier disappeared, he flashed, pulling the nearby Chu Xi into his arms with lightning speed.

Immediately after, he unhesitatingly mobilized the powerful Immortal Reincarnation Source Qi within his body, causing it to surge out like a tide and form a thick barrier of qi around their bodies.
