Chapter 199: Chapter 195: Mystic Ice Coffin (Two in One)_2

This might be the first time since arriving in this world that I have to part from my junior sister for such a long period, and all of a sudden, I felt extremely unaccustomed and miserable.

Having once crossed into this world alone, I started with excitement brimming in my heart, later having my junior sister by my side to fill the void within me. Only after she left did the enormous loneliness of being a stranger in a strange land fully reveal itself, causing some suffocation in my heart.

"Master~" Yue Bai noticed the intense loss in her master and, though powerless to alter the situation, she tried her best to comfort him, hoping he would recover soon.

"I’m fine, just not used to being without your Sister Su." Liang Yi came back to his senses, seeing the worried little fox beside him and felt somewhat reassured.

Wan Tinggui watched Liang Yi from the side, his loneliness just revealed striking her deeply, as if the world had left him after Sister Su’s departure.

"Was Sister Su his entire world?"

Wan Tinggui felt a strange sensation inside. Could such a person truly exist? But all she had seen before, whether his father or those men who abandoned their families, seemed only interested in their own benefits.

"My injuries are mostly healed now, so I shall not impose on the two of you any longer." Liang Yi composed himself, turned, and bowed to Gu Qingniu and his companion.

His most serious injuries had been to his Divine Soul and Sea of Consciousness, which now, under the combined treatment of Elder Gu and his associate, were mostly healed. The rest of his physical injuries were also rapidly healing under the influence of Qinglian Creation.

As such, there was no need for him to stay here anymore; he might as well return to the small courtyard where he and his junior sister had lived, where at least their shared memories lingered.

"Well, since Young Hero Liang says so, we won’t keep you any longer, but if there’s still something wrong with your body, feel free to come to us."

Gu Qingniu and Wen Xiang were now devoted to the Jue Ming Medical Book, just wanting to find a quiet place to delve into this medical book from another epoch.

They had a premonition that if they could comprehend this book, they might progress further and see the dawn of the Seventh Realm!

Seeing their state, Liang Yi spoke no more and, taking the little fox and Wan Tinggui, left the Imperial Palace directly.

"I wonder, Miss Chu, what are your plans?"

Liang Yi now had no interest in other matters, just wanting some peace alone. No matter what the Devouring Spirit Sect’s Saintess plans, he didn’t intend to accompany her.

"Now that you’re nearly healed, I won’t disturb you further. How about I come to see you in a few days when you’re feeling better, may I?"

Wan Tinggui blinked, giving Liang Yi a sweet smile, understanding too much eagerness could arouse suspicion, so she planned to leave for a few days to attend to sect matters.

"Yue Bai, take good care of Master, alright? I’ll bring you some treats when I come over in a few days." After gently stroking the little fox’s head, Wan Tinggui did not stay longer and turned to leave.

Liang Yi watched Wan Tinggui’s slowly receding figure, truly puzzled by this woman’s intentions.

"How did you meet her?" Holding Yue Bai’s little hand, Liang Yi asked while walking, logically thinking that Wan Tinggui should not know Yue Bai.

"Ah? Commander Wu informed me, saying that Master and Sister Su were recuperating in the Imperial Palace, and then I met Miss Chu while coming to visit Master and Sister Su," the little fox propped up her head, recounting the entire process of getting to know Wan Tinggui.

"Miss Chu took very good care of Sister Su, she took care of the details; I could only take care of Master alone." The little fox felt somewhat aggrieved as her ears drooped; she was supposed to be the one taking care of Master and Sister Su, but others took her place.

But it’s fine, Miss Chu never intended to take care of Master and even left her a chance to perform.

After hearing this, Liang Yi affectionately pinched the little fox’s ear, then remembered what his master had said and asked in a low voice.

udo, do you still remember what your parents were like?"

"Parents?" Mentioning this topic, Yue Bai’s mood visibly dipped. "I’ve never seen my parents; ever since I can remember, I’ve been alone in the forest until I met Old Song."

"I see, then in a few days, I’ll go to the Demon Clan side and help you find out about your origins, how about that?" Liang Yi thought it couldn’t hurt since it was on the way, perhaps even uncovering some clues about the little fox’s origins.

"Master... don’t you want me anymore?" Liang Yi expected the little fox to be happy with the news but found her looking rather melancholic.

"What nonsense are you talking?"

"Are you not planning to send me away after finding out about my origins?" The little fox stared with her big watery eyes, appearing pitifully at Liang Yi.

"Of course not!" Liang Yi hadn’t expected the little fox to be so thoughtful, and could only squat down with a wry smile and gently wiped her tears. "I just want to help you know where you come from, who your kin are; I have no intention of abandoning you."

"Really... really?" The little fox whimpered.

"Of course, it’s true. I spent a lot of money on you; why would I be foolish enough to send you away?"

Liang Yi nodded matter-of-factly, not at all recalling that he initially intended to drive the little fox away.
