Chapter 1911: Awakening

~7 min read 1,278 words

"All right, then I'll heal my wounds first." Xun Shuang Xianzi endured urgency and sorrow, her Divine Sense located the remaining medicinal potency of the Nine Revolutions Return Soul Pill, and went to absorb it to heal herself.

Xiao Feng also silently helped, unreservedly passing his own divine power to her.

The surrounding women all clenched their fingers nervously; they couldn't hear Xiao Feng and Xun Shuang's Divine Sense communication, but they could sense slight soul fluctuations, and that anxious, panicky emotion infected them.

"She must be okay……"

Dun Dun squatted beside the bed, lying on the cold bedrail and praying.

The chill had already formed frost around them; each person had some frost traces on their body, but nobody left.

"Jian Ge, the medicinal potency still isn't enough—can we substitute something else?" Xiao Feng noticed the Nine Revolutions Return Soul Pill was almost exhausted, and hurriedly asked Zhen Tian Jian.

Zhen Tian Jian said: "Hmm, purely physical injuries are still relatively easy to resolve, so I had you first awaken her primordial spirit. Your storage space still contains a 9th-grade Spirit Essence; take it out and give it to her to take—barring mishap it can heal her.... except for the special damage caused by Qi Luck."

Healed!

Hearing that word, Xiao Feng's mind and spirit were shaken, and he was greatly encouraged.

As for the injury from Qi Luck, we can slowly think of a solution.

The 9th-grade Spirit Essence that Jian Ge spoke of is the 【Water of Life】 left behind when the Master of Life fell; it can heal all physical injuries and additionally grants 500,000 points of free potential.

Xiao Feng had originally planned to keep it for himself, to use when he someday suffered grave injury, healing while boosting his strength to strike back at enemies.

But now it seems, 500,000 points of potential are less important than his wife and child—the latter matters more.

He unreservedly took

took it out and fed it to Xun Shuang Xianzi.

The Water of Life looks ordinary—just a transparent liquid, colorless and tasteless. Yet the life aura it emits is far stronger than Xiao Feng's Law of Life; it is the residual primordial life force of the Master of Life, as precious as the blood of the venerables of the Wild Beast Clan.

With the appearance of the Water of Life, Xun Shuang Xianzi's body immediately burst forth with vigorous vitality; the recently exhausted medicinal potency of the pill was replenished, and strand after strand of vitality, guided by Xun Shuang Xianzi herself and sorted by Xiao Feng from beside her, gradually dispelled the cold that had permeated her body from the Qi Luck ice chest.

Such cold, capable of freezing even souls, is truly hard to dispel; even ordinary venerables are helpless against it.

But the Nine Revolutions Return Soul Pill and the Water of Life are not mundane objects.

With their support, another ten or so hours passed.

Xun Shuang Xianzi's physical body slightly recovered; her pallid face gradually gained some color, and her lips turned a light red.

"She's about to wake up!" Dun Dun cheered.

"Great, Father God won't have to frown anymore!"

"Hope the child can also get better……"

The women all felt a sense of relief, yet they still worried about the little life in Xun Shuang Xianzi's womb.

The surrounding chill diminished greatly; the frost on everyone's bodies disappeared, only the bed remained icy, with a thin layer of tiny ice shards.

"Hmm……"

Suddenly, a murmur appeared in everyone's ears.

The person lying on the bed trembled their eyelashes slightly, then slowly opened their eyes.

"Awake!"

"She has awakened!"

"Finally! Finally awakened!"

"Awesome!"

Everyone rejoiced loudly.

Xiao Feng also finally could

finally let out a breath, his face showing urgent concern, he gently touched her cold cheek and asked: "Fairy Maiden, how do you feel?"

Xun Shuang Xianzi looked at him, then said nothing.

She raised her right hand; a shard of ice fell, and she placed her palm above her abdomen to sense.

After a moment, she closed her eyes again, and a tear rolled from the corner of her eye.

Although she didn't say a word, seeing this, everyone's hearts sank again.

"Child……gone?"

Boom~

Xiao Feng felt as if his chest had been heavily struck by a big hammer, both painful and oppressive.

But he couldn't show it!

He gently stroked Xun Shuang Xianzi's cheek, leaned close to her, and softly comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay……"

However, his mind and spirit having been struck, he couldn't think of any other words to console her at the moment.

Beside her, Jiang Ning gritted her teeth, her distress second only to Xun Shuang and Xiao Feng.

The others all fell silent, each furrowing their brows, expressions sorrowful; the earlier joy vanished completely, replaced by grief.

"Let's go downstairs first……" Xing Yun Miao tugged at Jiang Ning's sleeve and whispered.

At this moment, the person most distressed is undoubtedly Xun Shuang Xianzi herself; they here can't help much, and instead hinder Xun Shuang and Xiao Feng from talking.

The women, somewhat worried, glanced at Xiao Feng, then tiptoed away and went downstairs.

Upstairs only two people remained.

Xiao Feng embraced Xun Shuang Xianzi's still icy-cold whole body, continually whispering words of comfort to her.

It's clear Xun Shuang Xianzi loves the child in her womb deeply; otherwise she wouldn't be so anguished.

She was originally a Fairy Maiden who dwelt beyond the world, untouched by mortal fire,

but was seized and dragged down, falling into the mortal realm.

Now she has even experienced the pain of losing a child; that image of her closing her eyes, refusing to face it, is heartbreaking.

After a long while, she barely opened her mouth and said: "Sorry, I am incompetent……"

Xiao Feng hurriedly said: "No, no, don't say that—it's not your fault; if anyone is incompetent, it's me! I failed to protect you!"

He was truly afraid that Xun Shuang, in this state, might become desperate.

Her appearance showed she had endured the greatest pain imaginable! It is nothing like those modern women who casually abort their children as if nothing happened.

Although she had no deep feelings for Xiao Feng, everything at first was an accident, yet she still poured a great deal of heart and emotion into the child, caring deeply for him.

His comfort had no effect.

Xun Shuang Xianzi whispered, "I will kill her to avenge my child."

That "her" naturally refers to the Azure Dragon.

Xiao Feng grabbed her icy hand and nodded: "Mm, mm! Yes, we will avenge our child together! Not killing the Azure Dragon would be unworthy of being parents!"

"Mm."

Xun Shuang Xianzi replied with a sound, letting out a sob.

A chill exhaled with her breath, freezing Xiao Feng's side cheek.

Although she had awakened, a large amount of chill still remained within her body, not something that could be completely dispelled in a short time.

Xiao Feng paid no heed to the cold, silently comforting her.

Perhaps because the surroundings were very quiet and no one was around, Xun Shuang Xianzi's emotions gradually thawed; she no longer locked away her sorrow, and began to sob softly.

Xiao Feng gently stroked her cheek and hair,

not knowing what to say, he could only let her feel his presence through touch, sharing her sorrow.

He too was affected by the sorrow, his eyes moist.

After a while, a voice suddenly sounded beside their ears.

The Heaven-Shaking Arrow directly separated from Xiao Feng's body, circled around, and said: "Calm your emotions; your child is not dead yet."

Upon hearing this, both were stunned.
