Chapter 183 Rescue Successful
The girl's sudden movement made Shen Huaichuan freeze in place; her burning palms made him involuntarily pull his fingertips back.
"It's no use, you should just leave."
"I can't leave here, it's fate. If we delay any longer, you won't be able to leave either."
In the dream, Shen Huaichuan, backlit by the moonlight, seemed like a celestial being descended to earth. His temperament was just like the name of the Huaichuan sword: a heart that could encompass a hundred rivers.
But reality is not like that. He is trapped in this small space, blind, and cannot find peace for even a moment.
Yun Yici lowered her eyes, not daring to look into his lifeless eyes; her heart was filled with sorrow.
She thought the freedom Shen Huaichuan was talking about meant the freedom from being forcibly confined to her dreams, but little did she know it was "freedom" in the literal sense.
She said, "Yes, you said before that you would be free once I finished my studies."
"I'm about to reach the Golden Core stage, how can that not be considered a completed learning?"
"When I first met you, you didn't even know how to fly on a sword!"
Shen Huaichuan was silent for a moment. He could feel that Yun Yici's words had shaken him, but reason told him that it was impossible.
Perhaps because of him, she couldn't leave either.
Shen Huaichuan gripped her hand tightly before releasing it without hesitation, and said softly, "Yun Yici, don't waste any more time."
Shen Huaichuan tried to break free from her grasp, but she wouldn't let go no matter what.
Perhaps worried that he might push her into the fire if he used too much force, Shen Huaichuan finally gave in.
Yun Yici nodded and said, "You're right, let's not waste any more time."
Turning her head, Yun Yici frantically called out to the system: "System, quickly open the teleportation array, we need to go back."
Yun Yici's thoughts are very clear.
First of all, she can bring people through this teleportation array.
Secondly, the system allowed her to travel back and forth, so she could return to the Ling Clan.
Finally, Shen Huaichuan represents a coordinate rather than the teleportation array itself, so Shen Huaichuan can follow her back to the Ling Clan through the teleportation array.
The only drawback is that Shen Huaichuan's location is very close to the coordinates where she used teleportation, rendering the teleportation array practically useless. If she encounters danger, she can no longer use the teleportation array to escape.
However, it didn't matter. Yun Yici felt that if the teleportation array led to this godforsaken place, she would rather face the danger directly.
Moreover, she couldn't just sit idly by and leave Shen Huaichuan alone here.
The system was so scared that it had tricked Yun Yici again that it was as quiet as a chicken. But when it heard Yun Yici suddenly call it "System Brother", it instantly revived.
Before Yun Yici could urge it, it quickly activated the teleportation array.
The lush canopy of the Netherworld Tree formed an array in mid-air, and with a flash of light, it teleported away with the two just before the tribulation lightning descended.
Yun Yici held Huaichuan in one arm and tightly gripped Shen Huaichuan with the other.
In the blink of an eye, they were back in their safe home from the dark prison.
As soon as she stepped onto the solid seashell-covered ground, Yun Yici couldn't wait to look at Shen Huaichuan.
Unexpectedly, when she turned her head, she saw a large number of bubbles coming out of Shen Huaichuan's mouth and nose, his face showing pain, and his dark hair was floating in the water.
Yun Yici was startled. Remembering that they were in the deep sea, she quickly stuffed the water-repelling scales on her body into Shen Huaichuan's hand and then cast a water-repelling spell on herself.
She deliberately avoids using these water-repelling scales when hunting sea creatures, so she is very skilled in applying the water-repelling technique.
Shen Huaichuan finally caught his breath after obtaining the water-repelling scales. Sensing the change in his environment, he asked incredulously, "We've left Xuanling Prison?"
Knowing that he couldn't see, Yun Yici patiently replied, "Senior Shen, we have already returned to the Ling Clan."
Her answer made Shen Huaichuan tremble. Yun Yici watched him stretch out his hand and let the seawater flow from his fingertips.
Knowing that Shen Huaichuan was emotionally unstable, Yun Yici led him to sit down at the table in the room. After Huaichuan's sword spirit manifested, she considerately gave them space to talk.
"I'll go outside and find you some clean clothes and food."
Yun Yici originally intended to test whether the dog system's teleportation array was a trap for her, but little did she know that Shen Huaichuan was imprisoned in a place called Xuanling Prison.
Being able to rescue him is a good thing.
Yun Yici stepped out of the room and said to the system, "Thank you."
The system coughed a few times, then said guiltily, "It's my pleasure, it's my pleasure."
"If I use up one of my lottery chances, is there any chance I can win the medicine that can cure Shen Huaichuan's eyes?"
Yun Yici decided to go all the way to save him. Rather than saving the lottery chance and being tricked by the system in various ways later, she would rather use the lottery chance to exchange for Shen Huaichuan's eyes.
But the system replied, "No, system rewards can only be applied to you."
If Yun Yici's eyes are blind, they can be cured, but Shen Huaichuan's eyes cannot be cured.
Yun Yici said in surprise, "But the villain's happy ball I drew was obviously prepared for Senior Brother Mu."
The system retorted, "That's not the same thing. Mu Yunjian was almost dead back then."
"He wasn't originally destined for that calamity; it was our appearance that caused him to encounter it. If he had truly died there, the rest of the story would have completely collapsed."
"Shen Huaichuan is blind now, but he won't die."
As Yun Yici spoke to the system, they were almost at Rong Xuan's room.
Ling Wan arranged for the master and his disciples to live in a two-story building made of seashells, with three rooms on each floor.
The key point is that this shell-shaped building has a door, although it looks like a shell was simply placed on it, but it's better than nothing.
There was originally an empty room, but it will be full once Wan Nian successfully transforms into human form.
Yun Yici originally wanted to find an excuse to let Shen Huaichuan and Huaichuan talk, but since she was already there, she thought she would try her luck by looking for Rong Xuan.
Rong Xuan is a weapon cultivator, and she had seen him selling robes in the market at the foot of Nanhua Sect Mountain before, so perhaps he has new robes here.
Yun Yici pondered for a moment, then reached out and knocked on the door. She stood outside and waited for a short while before Rong Xuan opened the door.
Since arriving in the Ling Clan, Rong Xuan has become obsessed with the demon race's mastery of artifact crafting. After repairing the palace for the Emperor's decree and building closer relationships with the demon artifact crafters, he has secluded himself and no one knows what he's been tinkering with.
Rong Xuan was somewhat surprised to see Yun Yici, but still made way for her: "Junior Sister, what brings you here? Come in and have a seat."
Yun Yici didn't stand on ceremony. She went in and looked around. She found that Rong Xuan's room was decorated much like her own, with the most eye-catching feature being a row of lifelike puppets placed against the wall.
Seeing Yun Yici staring at the puppets, Rong Xuan smiled and said, "When Wu Lin came before, I was injured in the fight with them. I've been thinking of maintaining these puppets these past few days since I have nothing to do."
"Don't be afraid. I just think that puppets should be made to look better, which is why they look somewhat like real people."
Yun Yici expressed her understanding; she suddenly had a particularly unreliable yet logical guess.
In other words, two hundred years later, the beauties who keep changing around Rong Xuan won't be female puppets he made himself, right?
