125: Chapter 125 This is my promise to you.

Tang Ruan looked at the lifeless Lang Lie inside the crystal.

She was too anxious to speak, "He... he..."

Suddenly, an image flashed through Tang Ruan's mind.

She immediately turned her head to look at Yan Qing, examining him, as tears rolled down like beads from a broken string.

"You—"

"He is still alive."

Upon hearing his words, Tang Ruan broke into a smile through her tears.

But as she laughed, she collapsed onto the crystal and began to cry again.

It's great, Lang Lie is still alive.

He is still alive...

Yan Qing is also fine.

Meanwhile, the three Old Witch Doctors turned around at the same time, looking at Yan Qing in shock.

One of them was just about to speak.

But Yan Qing silenced them with a single look.

Then, at his signal, they all walked out.

Yan Qing walked to Tang Ruan's side.

Tang Ruan turned around and hugged his waist tightly.

"Yan Qing, thank you! Yan Qing, thank you! Thank you!"

She was sobbing uncontrollably, leaving a patch of warmth on his chest.

Yan Qing raised his hand and gently stroked the back of her head.

"No need to thank me, this is my promise to you."

---

Yan Qing said that Lang Lie had suffered very serious injuries.

For some unknown reason, he had appeared in the Ice Wolf Tribe's territory, and when the Ice Wolf Tribe saw him, they recognized that he shared their lineage.

So they placed him in a crystal to recuperate.

Yan Qing received the news and went to the icy plains where the Ice Wolf Tribe resided.

Unexpectedly, on his way back, he was accidentally injured by a monster.

Inside the room.

Tang Ruan was carefully treating every wound on Yan Qing's body.

The wounds on his body were far more numerous than she had imagined.

Some were even deep enough to see the bone.

Fortunately, she was now a level three Supernatural Ability Beastman, so her healing ability had improved.

Tang Ruan pointed to the blue-purple lightning patterns covering Yan Qing's chest and back.

"Are these also left by the monster?"

"Yes, that monster had a Supernatural Ability, which surprised me too. But don't worry, they will disappear after a while."

Tang Ruan helped Yan Qing put on his clothes, and her hands trembled slightly when she tied his belt.

Yan Qing grabbed her hand.

"What's wrong? Before you didn't want me to wear clothes, but today you insist on dressing me. Do you find the patterns on my body ugly?" he teased her.

Tang Ruan kept her head down and didn't speak.

A few seconds later, her shoulders began to heave.

A drop of warm liquid splashed onto the back of Yan Qing's hand.

Yan Qing: ...

"Yan Qing, am I that easy to fool?"

Yan Qing was startled and hadn't had time to speak.

He only heard Tang Ruan say, "You went to Beast God Mountain, didn't you? These marks on your body were caused by the lightning on Beast God Mountain. Lang Lie was also found on Beast God Mountain. Right?"

She raised her head and looked into his eyes.

Yan Qing was silent for a moment.

"Yes."

"Hah!" Tang Ruan chuckled, "You've returned, that's great!"

She threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

As if she were afraid that he would disappear in the next second.

Yan Qing suddenly remembered the scene in the basement a short while ago.

Tang Ruan had looked him up and down and said the word "You."

At that time, she must have wanted to ask, "How are you?"

Yan Qing's heart was filled with sweetness. He lowered his head and kissed her crown.

"How did you know?"

"I am the Divine Maiden," Tang Ruan said with a hoarse voice.

Before this, Tang Ruan had always held a half-believing attitude toward her identity as the Divine Maiden.

However, just a moment ago, the instant her hand was placed on the crystal.

The images of Beast God Mountain appeared in her mind once again.

And this time, it was exceptionally clear.

She even saw how Yan Qing had split open the Barrier of Beast God Mountain and transformed into a snake to rush inside.

As well as the entire process of him bringing Lang Lie out of Beast God Mountain.

It was as if the crystal wrapping Lang Lie was a recorder connected to Beast God Mountain.

But the recorded images were intermittent and had no sound.

Tang Ruan pieced them together and roughly understood the whole process.

No wonder she had felt all these days that he was hiding something from her; it turned out he had been planning this.

It must have been because it was too dangerous, and he was afraid she would worry.

That night, Tang Ruan clung to Yan Qing like an octopus, terrified of losing him.

In her dream, she saw the scene of that lightning striking Yan Qing again.

Yan Qing was coiling around the crystal wrapping Lang Lie, flying in mid-air.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck him.

In pain, Yan Qing let go of Lang Lie.

The crystal fell rapidly.

At the critical moment, he flew beneath the crystal.

The sharp edges of the crystal cut deeply into his flesh.

"Yan Qing! Yan Qing! Yan Qing!"

In the dream, Tang Ruan stood not far from them.

But no matter how she shouted, Yan Qing could not hear her voice.

She thought, he must have been in so much pain at that time...

"Yan Qing!"

Tang Ruan woke up from her dream in a start. Seeing no one beside her, she ran out.

Hu Che came out from the next room and stopped her.

"Yan Qing and a few City Lords are discussing some very important matters. You shouldn't go in your current state," Hu Che said, yawning as if he hadn't slept well last night.

"How do you know?" Tang Ruan asked.

"Yan Qing told me! Don't you know that among your Beast Husbands, he is ranked ahead of me? He is my big brother! I listen to him," he raised his eyebrows mysteriously.

Being teased by him, Tang Ruan was not as nervous as before.

"Let's go! Let's go see Lang Lie. I want to see what kind of ability this wolf has to be able to make my Mistress so infatuated."

---

Lang Lie lay quietly inside the crystal.

Looking closely, one could still see his eyelashes trembling slightly. It seemed he was having a dream.

"Yan Qing said it would take at least a few months, or at most a few years, for him to wake up," Hu Che said while looking at Tang Ruan's profile.

"I know," Tang Ruan said, placing her hand on the crystal.

Yan Qing had told her about this last night. Although she didn't know who had made the Crystal Array for Lang Lie, she was truly grateful to him.

"I can wait," she added.

Lang Lie was back; even if she had to wait a few years, it didn't matter. The lifespan of Beastmen was so long that the time they would spend together would not be affected by these few years.

"By the way! Do Lang Feng and Lang Chi know?" Tang Ruan turned back to ask Hu Che.

They were also in Central City, and they had also waited for Lang Lie for five years; they should be told this good news.

Hu Che was taken aback and shook his head.

Seeing Tang Ruan stand up, seemingly about to go find them, he hurriedly called out to her, "Yan Qing said, don't tell them yet!"

"Why?" Tang Ruan asked curiously. The feelings Lang Chi and the others had for Lang Lie were no less than her own.

Hu Che thought for a moment and said, "The situation on Beast God Mountain is relatively complex. And the Beastman who placed the Crystal Array on Lang Lie might still be on the mountain.

We could make up a lie and tell them Lang Lie came from somewhere else. But if too many people come to see him, there will eventually be a day when the lie is exposed.

By then, if they disturb the Beastman on the mountain, or if they accidentally cause him to..."

He stared into Tang Ruan's eyes.

Tang Ruan thought about it. She remembered that both Hu Che and Lang Lie had said that Beast God Mountain was surrounded by crystals.

crystals were equivalent to money in this world and were also necessities for many Mid-level Beastmen to become High-level Beastmen.

For the Beastmen of the Beast World, Beast God Mountain was like a mountain of gold.

If something happened to the Beastman who saved Lang Lie, then Lang Lie...

"Yan Qing is right!"

For the sake of Lang Lie's safety, it's better to let them wait a little longer!

Hu Che let out a sigh of relief. He had finally managed to brush it off.

Given Lang Lie's current situation, it would be bad if a Beastman with Supernatural Abilities in this area were to figure it out.
