Chapter 512: 512: Back to the Herb Valley
After being kicked out of Yue Xuexia’s soul domain Shen Jueyang opened his eyes and looked around. He knew that he had returned to reality. His conversion with his former wife was unexpected but there are a lot of unexpected gains. There are also a lot of truths that he had never noticed until now. It was only at this moment that he believed that Xing Xieju, the only person he considered as his friend, was never one in the first place.
Their interactions, their first meeting and those near death experiences they had undergone were all mostly schemes to make him trust the person. In which the man had succeeded and because of this, his empire had fallen and he was almost killed with only a hint of his soul escaping to this small star. Thankfully, in here he had met the Moon Goddess’s reincarnation, or her other self.
With her help he had gathered enough merits to recreate his body and get a quarter of his full strength, he now had the ability to slowly get back what he lost and plan for his revenge on those people who took away his everything.
He watches as Yue Xuexia opens her eyes and clearly her complexion is better now than before. Only then his attention was diverted from his thoughts to the girl laying on the bed.
Shen Jueyang said, "You’re awake. You sleep for five hours. Now your face is no longer pale. You shouldn’t overworked yourself. Your patients will not be dying so soon even if you take a nap."
Urgh
Holding her temples and massaging it lightly, Yue Xuexia noticed she was in some kind of room and most likely a room for a guest to rest. She glares at Shen Jueyang and said,
"If you dare to force me to sleep next time I’m going to bite you," said Yue Xuexia looking irritated.
Chuckles
"Alright. I will not do it again without your permission," said Shen Jueyang as he supported her to sit up. "Moreover, there is no need to worry. Aside from the two patients you’ve treated before falling asleep, the other can be easily healed by your Sacred Healing skills. Their ailments aren’t as complicated as those two."
"You’ve checked on them?" Yue Xuexia let the man put the shoes on her while asking this.
The Immortal Sun Emperor who is only down to earth for her sake responded, "I’ve checked by spreading my divine consciousness. Some are poisoned but you have purification skill. Adding your sacred healing skill, they should be easily healed."
"That’s good then. The faster I am done with it, the more I can laze around before leaving," said Yue Xuexia as they head for the door to see the patients waiting in the receiving hall.
Yue Xuexia fulfilled her duties as the divine doctor and cured everyone all night. Even the wife of Xue Yi who was deeply weak after all these years had been cured. The whole Snow Clan was grateful to her and sent her countless gifts such as immortal herbs, spirit stones and more. This can be considered payment for her treatment to their ailments.
The next morning, those who were supposed to leave with them had finished their preparation well. Including Xue Renxue and Tang Yuyi who were now fully healed and healthy. Tang Yuyi is coming but not to enter the secret dungeon with them but to meet with her younger sister. According to the Moon Goddess, she should be able to meet her sister if she goes with them to the Herb Valley.
The supreme elder and the grand elder had come over to watch their son leave. After being nursed by Tan Bingyu all night, Xue Renxue’s complexion had returned to a normal shade. It was completely unlike his fair complexion which he was born with. It can be said that his current state is the healthiest ever since he was born and his parents were happy about it. What Xue Renxue didn’t know was that this is the last time he will see his parents.
"Ren’er, don’t overdo it on the way. You should take necessary rest and listen to Bing’er."
"Son, you are normal now. You no longer need to worry about your body failing. As long as you stabilize your control between ice and fire elements you will never be sick again. As for that token I have given you. Never take it out. That thing can be considered your life saving artifact."
"Mother, Father, I understand. Take care. Bing’er and I will come visit you in the future. I will come back when I successfully pursue her!" said Xue Renxue.
In the end, only Xue Shuyi remained to handle the members of the Hidden Tan Clan staying in the Snow Clan. Tan Shenyu asked if she wanted to go with them but she declined. She knew that she couldn’t enter the dungeon anyway. Moreover, her parents are still here. Xue Shuyi still needs to help his foster father with the duties of the clan.
After they finished bidding their farewells, the road on the flying ship, Yue Xuexia owned. It’s the same ship she had used in the mortal realm when heading to the sea with the rest of her group. Under the control of Shen Jueyang, their journey to the Herb Valley was fast. Though it made some of them sick and immediately puke as they got off on their destination.
It was already midday when they reached the Herb Valley and some Huashen Realm cultivators as well as their chosen companions for the dungeon had gathered over the closed entrance. There are also some Yuanying cultivators who wanted to test their luck and accept the risk of going inside without a Huashen realm cultivator protecting them.
Upon their arrival, everyone saw the luxurious flying ship Yue Xuexia and the rest were on. Those on the ground opened a space for them to disembark. Well, they were actually forced to open the way as Shen Jueyang is using his aura to coerce them to do so. Once the flying ship had landed, Yue Xuexia and Shen Jueyang were the first ones to go down. Followed by the members of Hidden Tan Clan, Tan Huangyu, Tan Shenyu and Tang Yuyi. After them are Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue.
Everyone stares at the Moon Goddess and the Immortal Sun Emperor. It can be said that only they are capable of removing the death formation that locked the entrance of the dungeon. A lot had actually tried to destroy the formation and died under it.
After they disembarked, the ones from the Starfield Sect lead by the Supreme Elder and the grandfather of the Moon Goddess had approached them. Grandma Su approached her granddaughter and checked on her.
"Granny! You came too?" Yue Xuexia said as she hugged her grandmother.
Su Hialun held her granddaughter’s face and saw that she is healthy and seems to have a good complexion.
"It’s good to see you looking healthy, Xue’er. Have you found anything about your parents?" Grandma Su asked.
Yue Xuexia shook her head and brought out her parents and sisters’ soul lamps. They are glowing bright signifying that there isn’t anything wrong with the owners of these soul lamps.
Soul lamp, a tool in which one can leave a part of their soul to linger. It shows whether the owner of the soul lamp is alive or injured. If it’s glowing brightly, it means the owner of the soul is healthy and safe. If the soul lamp is dull it means that the owner of the soul is injured. If the glow had disappeared it meant that the owner had died.
Seeing the bright lights on the soul lamps made Su Hialun relieved. Her husband supported her from behind.
Grandpa Xia said, "I told you they will be alright. They are quite powerful. They will not easily fall, especially if Yue Yuya is with them."
"I know. I just couldn’t help but worry," said Grandma Su.
Shen Jueyang politely greets the two seniors despite his standing as they are Yue Xuexia’s family.
"Jueyang greets Grandfather Xia and Grandma Su!"
"Hello. Thank you for keeping our Xue’er safe, Jue’er," said Grandma Su.
Shen Jueyang said, "It’s my pleasure."
Hmp!
The old man just responded with a snort. He still hasn’t forgiven this brat for causing harm to his granddaughter yesterday. Shen Jueyang didn’t mind the old man’s response.
Finally, Xia Lianyu saw his friend, Tan Huangyu and greeted him. He noticed that this old friend of his is only one step away from ascending to Huashen Realm like he does.
"Lao Tang, I know you will be chosen by Xue’er. So I no longer save a spot from my side," said Xia Lianyu.
Tan Huangyu said, "All is good. Ah right. You should remember your sister-in-law right?"
"You’ve found Sister Yuyi?" Xia Lianyu asked.
Tang Yuyi approached them with a smile. She had met Xia Lianyu before and didn’t expect him to be married now and is even the grandfather of the Moon Empress’s reincarnation in this star.
She said, "It’s been awhile. Nice to see you again, Brother Xia. Is she your wife? Hello! I am Tang Yuyi. Tan Huangyu’s wife."
"Su Hialun. Nice meeting you, Sister Tang," said Grandma Su.
