Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Can’t Go Back

A devastating power burst from Lin Jiao’s abdomen.

This power was even stronger than Wu Xia’s peak strength and was forcefully streaming back into Wu Xia’s body.

"Roar!"

A loud phoenix cry was heard coming from Lin Jiao’s mouth.

The Vermilion Bird’s soul emerged from Lin Jiao’s body, now in a phoenix form, grandly bowing its head, looking at Wu Xia.

"Wu Xia, I have already fulfilled your wish. Your woman’s soul has been repaired, and her body will inherit all my powers!"

The deep voice of the Vermilion Bird, like rolling thunder, burst in Wu Xia’s mind.

It seemed intentionally done this way to intimidate Wu Xia, or perhaps as revenge for the resentment of being manipulated by him.

"Thank you!"

Wu Xia didn’t mind the anger of the Vermilion Bird and gratefully looked at it.

If it wasn’t for the Vermilion Bird, he wouldn’t have been able to cure Lin Jiao.

A cold light flashed in Vermilion Bird’s eyes as it continued, "If you want to thank someone, thank the child in her womb. If not for the child continuously protecting her body and soul, she would have been utterly annihilated long ago!"

"Furthermore!"

The Vermilion Bird didn’t give Wu Xia a chance to speak and continued, "Your attempt to erase her memory didn’t succeed. Her strength broke through and she found her memories again!"

"Therefore, for her safety and the child’s, you’d better make sure she doesn’t see your elder brother again, either before the child is born or for the rest of her life!"

Boom!

"What?"

Wu Xia widened his eyes, not expecting that after all his efforts and the many problems he caused, it was all in vain.

He could ignore the issues concerning Wu Tie, but he could not ignore the time Lin Jiao spent in that dark cell that month.

After all, that had caused her tremendous harm.

The Vermilion Bird, as if seeing through Wu Xia’s thoughts, slowly began, "She has inherited my powers and achieved Nirvana Rebirth, she is no longer the person she once was, you no longer need to underestimate her ability to endure."

"Please do not underestimate a woman!"

The last sentence was delivered with a hint of anger by the Vermilion Bird.

After speaking, it spread its fiery wings and ascended to the sky, disregarding Wu Xia.

Wu Xia, wanting to say something but stopping himself, did not try to stop the Vermilion Bird, but merely whispered again, "Thank you."

The departing figure of the Vermilion Bird slightly paused in the sky, a trace of moisture flashing in its eyes.

But it quickly controlled its emotions, issued a resounding phoenix cry, and disappeared into the sky, returning to the Ten Thousand Forest.

Xuanwu had already set up the Formation with Azure Dragon and others, waiting for the Vermilion Bird’s soul to enter it, then they immediately began casting spells to treat Vermilion Bird, helping it return to its physical body.

"Emperor Qing, the safety outside is up to you now. For the next few months, we’ll be unable to come out!"

"Rest assured, I will hold this last post to the end!"

At this moment, Emperor Qing had already separated from Fan Ruoruo’s body, standing resolutely as if ready to face death.

Fan Ruoruo did not leave either, steadfastly standing by her grandfather’s side.

This was their royal duty; she had no choice but to stand firm with her grandfather, even if it meant death!

"Alright, everyone, let’s start!"

Xuanwu deeply looked at Azure Dragon and White Tiger, "Seven more months, and the child will be born, Vermilion Bird will also awake at that time, and that will be the moment that decides the fate of the world!"

"Yes!"

The expressions of Azure Dragon and White Tiger were also extremely solemn.

Especially Azure Dragon, looking at Vermilion Bird, which was now just a blaze, his eyes moistened.

Only after knowing everything did he understand how great Vermilion Bird’s sacrifices had been.

Especially when Xuanwu told Azure Dragon that Vermilion Bird had always loved him, he felt as if he wanted to die.

"Vermilion Bird, rest assured, no matter what you become, I will still love you. You are my only one!"

Azure Dragon said firmly in his heart.

Meanwhile, Wu Xia, after confirming that Lin Jiao’s body did not have any abnormalities, took her back to the villa in Hai City.

Since it was not suitable for Lin Jiao to go back and see Wu Tie, which might upset her, she had to stay here.

Lin Jiao was in good condition at that time, except that her soul had been greatly impacted, so she needed to rest properly.

Wu Xia made chicken soup for Lin Jiao and fed it to her when she woke up. Afterwards, Lin Jiao continued to sleep.

Wu Xia stayed by Lin Jiao’s side the whole time.

This sleep lasted for three days.

Wu Xia did not move an inch, always staying by her side.

After three days, Lin Jiao woke up, completely transformed, especially her eyes, which shimmered with a golden light, shocking Wu Xia.

By then, the strength in Lin Jiao’s body matched his, and the Nirvana Rebirth of her soul seemed as though it had been refined a thousand times over, incredibly tough.

"Jiaojiao!"

Wu Xia hugged her tightly into his arms, his voice choked with emotion, "I’m sorry, I didn’t take good care of you!"

After a brief moment of confusion, Lin Jiao remembered everything. She gently patted Wu Xia’s shoulder, revealing a sweet smile, "Xia, you’re holding me so tight I can’t breathe!"

"Ah!"

Wu Xia quickly let go of Lin Jiao, then anxiously looked at her, "Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"

"I’m fine!" Lin Jiao’s eyes were filled with happiness, "Xia, the dark room was indeed torturous and painful, but I have grown stronger now, so you don’t need to worry. If I hadn’t undergone that ordeal, I wouldn’t have become this powerful."

"Don’t blame yourself anymore; my mindset is very stable now."

"All the hardships I faced before were stepping stones that allowed me to grow and achieve what I am today!"

"You should be proud of me. From now on, I can always be by your side, along with our child!"

Wu Xia’s eyes moistened as he pulled Lin Jiao back into his embrace. Only then did he understand what true happiness was.

It didn’t require many words, nor a flashy life, just a simple sentence, a lifetime of companionship.

"Xia, enough, let’s go home now,"

Lin Jiao spoke after a while, "I’m pregnant now, and it’s inconvenient for you to look after me alone. Let’s go back and have your sister-in-law take care of me; we can be happier that way!"

Wu Xia’s expression changed slightly. Although Lin Jiao had recovered her memories, she did not know that Wu Tie had been resurrected. He also remembered the warning Vermilion Bird gave before leaving.

Although Lin Jiao’s strength had increased and her Soul Power could withstand shocks, the matter of Wu Tie was not that simple.

That was her former husband, his own brother!

"Jiao, we cannot go back!"

Wu Xia blurted out, immediately realizing something was wrong, but by then Lin Jiao’s expression had also changed.

"Xia, why can’t we go back?"

"Is it because you..."

"No!" Wu Xia quickly interjected, "It’s because your sister-in-law is also pregnant. It’s inconvenient for you to go back as big brother is already taking care of her alone!"

"Ah?" Lin Jiao was thrilled, "Sister-in-law is also pregnant? Then I should definitely go back!"

"Both of us being pregnant, we can share experiences!"

"Xia, hurry up and pack; let’s go home quickly!"

Wu Xia’s face turned pale, not expecting that the excuse he’d found would backfire so severely.

Lin Jiao frowned slightly, "Xia, are you hiding something from me?"

"Tell me, I can handle it now, no matter what it is!"
