"Alright, senior, then let’s hurry up and leave!"
Chen Feng nodded and agreed on the spot.
Then he directly released the Divine Water Pagoda from his Space Ring. The Devouring Sky Python instantly turned into a streak of blue light and shadow, rapidly shrinking in midair until it was as small as an earthworm, then burrowed into Chen Feng’s Divine Water Pagoda.
With a thought, Chen Feng put the Divine Water Pagoda back into his Space Ring.
As for the old Daoist, he turned into a streak of white light and slipped into Chen Feng’s body.
If it had been before, Chen Feng would definitely have let the old Daoist enter the Tianqi Holy Pearl.
That way, inside the Tianqi Holy Pearl, with the help of the Pearl’s vast Spiritual Energy, the old Daoist could have recovered a bit faster.
It was just that now the Tianqi Holy Pearl had been taken away by Emperor Tianqi.
So he’d just wait until Emperor Tianqi returned the Tianqi Holy Pearl, then let the old Daoist go in; it wouldn’t be too late.
For now, letting the old Daoist temporarily reside in his body would do.
As for the Xuanming Demon Wolf, because it had been badly injured by the monster, although it wasn’t dead yet, its aura was extremely weak.
But all those chunks of its torn flesh, because of the interference from the black fog, still couldn’t recondense for the time being.
Chen Feng simply used his Space Ring to collect all those chunks of flesh, planning to help the Xuanming Demon Wolf clear away that black fog and help it be reborn once they went back and conditions allowed.
After all, judging from what the old Daoist and the Devouring Sky Python had said—
Before Emperor Tianqi made his move, the Xuanming Demon Wolf had also used its body to help him take a fatal blow.
That was a debt he had to repay.
After arranging things for the old Daoist, the Devouring Sky Python, and the Xuanming Demon Wolf—
Chen Feng then went and dealt with the traces of the battle.
Otherwise, leaving so many shocking marks here would cause unnecessary panic among the citizens.
Once everything was taken care of—
Only then did Chen Feng head toward where he had parked earlier.
Before, to protect Lin Mengyao’s safety, Chen Feng had driven his Range Rover and sent Lin Mengyao far away.
From this coastline, it was at least one or two kilometers.
And it was precisely because of this move by Chen Feng that the aftermath of that big battle just now didn’t affect Lin Mengyao.
Otherwise, if Lin Mengyao had still been at the seaside, in that battle just now, she probably would have died on the spot.
After all, that battle just now had been at a Heavenly Rank Perfection Level.
Later, when that monster completed the sacrifice, its strength had even gone beyond the Heaven Rank.
And then Emperor Tianqi made his move, and he was even more terrifying than that monster above the Heaven Rank.
The fluctuations of aura and the power they unleashed absolutely weren’t something an ordinary person with a mere mortal body like Lin Mengyao could withstand.
Don’t even talk about them actually attacking Lin Mengyao—just a wisp of aura leaking out would have been too much for her.
So sending Lin Mengyao so far away not only hid these cruel truths from her, it also kept her alive.
That was killing two birds with one stone.
A distance of one or two kilometers was naturally nothing to a Heavenly Rank Expert like Chen Feng.
In just a short while, Chen Feng arrived at where he had parked.
He saw Lin Mengyao in the Range Rover, her little face deathly pale as she leaned against the car window. Those beautiful big eyes were staring out through the glass, constantly scanning the surroundings, her face full of vigilance.
Clearly, she had taken to heart what Chen Feng had told her before he left, but she was still very scared and worried right now.
Because from the seriousness on Chen Feng’s face, she could tell that something really major must have happened.
Otherwise, Chen Feng wouldn’t have driven her so far away and then rushed back alone.
This made her, while afraid, also worry about Chen Feng to the extreme.
She was afraid something would happen to him; if that really happened, she would definitely collapse.
"Yaoyao!"
Seeing this, Chen Feng just shook his head with a smile and hurried over.
Lin Mengyao, sitting in the car, stared blankly for a moment when she saw Chen Feng walking toward the vehicle, then her face instantly filled with surprise and joy.
Her big eyes immediately turned red and misty.
For a moment, Lin Mengyao couldn’t care about anything else. She pushed the car door open and rushed toward Chen Feng, throwing herself straight into his arms.
To be honest, she’d been worried sick during this time. Now that she saw Chen Feng return safe and sound, there was no way to describe how excited she was.
"Chen Feng, do you know? While you were gone, I was really worried to death. You looked so serious when you left, I really thought something had happened. I was so scared you wouldn’t come back. If you really didn’t come back, what would I do?"
Lin Mengyao lay against Chen Feng’s chest, eyes red as she burst into tears.
"Alright, silly girl, I’m back, aren’t I? I promised you I’d come back, so I definitely will come back. Nothing’s going to happen to me. I did scare you just now. Things were urgent and I didn’t have time to explain much to you. When we get back and have time, I’ll explain everything properly."
Chen Feng rubbed Lin Mengyao’s hair and said with a smile.
"Then promise me you’ll never scare me like that again. You don’t know, I was really about to worry myself to death. Whatever happens in the future, you have to tell me more; you can’t hide things from me like this again, otherwise I’ll really feel completely at a loss!"
Lin Mengyao said, eyes red.
"Okay, don’t worry, I’ll definitely tell you from now on. I won’t let you worry like this again."
Chen Feng nodded and promised with a smile.
"Then you have to keep your word. Really, Chen Feng, I’m especially scared that our next parting will be the last time we ever see each other. You know, during the days you didn’t come to see me, I was often jolted awake by nightmares. And in those nightmares, I’d always see you for the last time, and then you’d disappear. I’m scared the nightmares will come true. I’m scared that one day, after we part, we’ll never see each other again! I’m really scared, so please, don’t ever leave me again, okay?"
Lin Mengyao looked at Chen Feng, her face extremely serious as she asked.
After hearing what Lin Mengyao said, Chen Feng was stunned for a moment.
Nightmares?
The last time?
This couldn’t help but make Chen Feng think of what had happened in the Dream World.
Before he left the Dream World, wasn’t that exactly the last time he saw Lin Mengyao?
Only, that Lin Mengyao had been the Lin Mengyao in the Dream World.
And now, the Lin Mengyao in reality was actually telling him that while he was gone, she often had nightmares like that.
Could this have something to do with the Dream World?
Chen Feng couldn’t figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it for now. He wrapped Lin Mengyao tightly in his arms and said with a smile, "Silly girl, don’t worry. We’ll be together for a lifetime, forever."
"I promise you, no matter the time or place, no matter when, we’ll always be together. So stop worrying about that. Remember, dreams and reality are opposites!"
