Chapter 450: Where Did My Chest Go Again?
Lin Fengmian spoke confidently, “Don’t worry. As soon as we drift a bit further, I’ll use the Sky-Splitting Slash to get us out.”
Luo Xue hummed in agreement and then glared at him. “Alright, now spill it. Why were we in the Moon Shadow Dynasty?”
Lin Fengmian chuckled awkwardly and had no choice but to tell the truth.
To his surprise, Luo Xue simply said, “Oh,” and didn’t scold him for his recklessness.
“You’re not angry with me?” Lin Fengmian asked nervously.
Luo Xue smiled helplessly. “This is a mess of my own making. Why should I blame you?”
“From now on, I’ll keep an eye on the Junyan Empire. If anything happens, I’ll step in to help. You don’t need to worry.”
Lin Fengmian knew that he wouldn’t stay in this world forever, so he simply nodded.
He looked at the two swimming fish and couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe.
“I wonder what level of treasure this Twin Fish Pendant is. It can travel through time and space with Zhen Yuan and even navigate the Void Chaos.”
“This kind of divine ability is something that even divine tools can’t achieve. These two items must have an extraordinary origin.”
Ever since he discovered that Zhen Yuan could appear in this mysterious space, he had suspected that the two items were a set.
Later, he realized that whoever held Zhen Yuan could come to this side, which further confirmed his theory.
Was it because he had the Twin Fish Pendant that Zhen Yuan reacted to him from a thousand years later?
Luo Xue sighed. “I always thought that it was just a pendant. I never imagined that it could be so miraculous.”
Lin Fengmian suddenly asked, “Luo Xue, where did you get this Twin Fish Pendant?”
His own Twin Fish Pendant was most likely given to the Lin family by the future Luo Xue or himself, but it wasn’t time for that yet.
But what about Luo Xue’s Twin Fish Pendant?
Luo Xue’s expression became complicated. “The Twin Fish Pendant was given to me by my master together with Zhen Yuan. She said that it was with me when she found me.”
“You and Zhen Yuan were found together?” Lin Fengmian asked incredulously.
“Yes. According to the other elders, my master found me and Senior Sister Tingyu together,” Luo Xue replied seriously.
Lin Fengmian hesitated before asking curiously, “Where did your master find you?”
“Why are you asking that?” Luo Xue asked confusedly.
“So that I can find some too! If I can find people like you, I’ll collect ten thousand of them!”
Lin Fengmian didn’t believe a word of this nonsense!
How could geniuses like Luo Xue and Xu Tingyu be so easy to find?
And Luo Xue even came with a divine tool like Zhen Yuan and the Twin Fish Pendant?
Who was she trying to fool?
Luo Xue naturally knew that he didn’t believe her and smiled helplessly. “My master never said where she found us, and she forbade us from asking.”
Lin Fengmian frowned. “You have no memories at all?”
“I was only two or three months old when my master found me. What memories could I have?” Luo Xue replied.
Lin Fengmian shifted his focus. “What about Senior Sister Tingyu?”
Luo Xue thought for a moment. “Senior Sister was around seventeen or eighteen at the time, but she has no memories of anything before coming to Qionghua.”
Lin Fengmian looked puzzled. “So the character ‘Xue’ on the Twin Fish Pendant wasn’t carved by you?”
Luo Xue shook her head. “No. The Twin Fish Pendant is harder than you think. I couldn’t carve anything on it.”
Lin Fengmian’s curiosity was instantly ignited, and a series of bold theories popped into his head.
Did the Qionghua Sovereign destroy some powerful faction and take away their children?
Or was Luo Xue actually the Qionghua Sovereign’s daughter?
Otherwise, why would the Qionghua Sovereign take such meticulous care of her and even hand over such a treasure to her?
Previously, based on what Xu Tingyu had said, the Qionghua Sovereign had entered the Northern Abyss to kill the Sword Saint in order to clear a path for Luo Xue to ascend to the Honored Position.
But Xu Tingyu was also at the peak of the Void Realm!
If Xu Tingyu hadn’t misunderstood, wouldn’t this favoritism be a bit too obvious?
The more Lin Fengmian thought about it, the more plausible it seemed, but he was afraid of getting beaten up if he voiced his thoughts.
After all, from the reactions of Xu Tingyu and Luo Xue, it was clear that they held the Qionghua Sovereign in the highest regard.
To them, his speculation would undoubtedly be blasphemous!
He asked cautiously, “Luo Xue, do you remember the Immortal Pavilion? Maybe you should go back and ask about your origin?”
Previously, he had thought that the Immortal Pavilion was targeting Ye Xuefeng because of his talent, but now it seemed that there was more to the story!
“I will ask my master when I return. For now, let’s focus on achieving the Honored Position first.”
Luo Xue vaguely felt that this matter was indeed related to her origin, but she subconsciously avoided delving deeper.
Perhaps she was also worried about uncovering truths she didn’t want to face.
Lin Fengmian nodded and closed his eyes, carefully searching for unstable points in the space around them.
After a while, he sensed a disturbance in the space ahead and unleashed a Sky-Splitting Slash.
The two fish jumped up and wrapped around Zhen Yuan, effortlessly tearing through the void and creating a massive spatial rift.
Lin Fengmian’s soul retreated into the Twin Fish Pendant, handing control of the body back to Luo Xue.
“Luo Xue, the rest is up to you.”
Luo Xue hummed in acknowledgement and, with the Twin Fish Pendant in her hand, transformed into a streak of light that shot out of the rift and back into the real world.
She found herself in a remote mountainous area and wasted no time connecting with heaven to summon the heavenly tribulation.
Although she was slightly injured, her spiritual energy was still abundant since it wasn’t shared with Lin Fengmian.
Coupled with her natural immunity to heavenly tribulation, she faced the ordeal with ease.
However, Lin Fengmian was more nervous than when he had faced his own tribulation. He cheered on her, “Luo Xue, you can do it!”
“Who do you think you are talking to?”
Luo Xue smiled brightly and transformed into a sword light that soared into the sky without fear.
Moments later, a torrent of thunder poured down, and she bathed in the sea of lightning like a thunder goddess.
The raging thunder didn’t last long before Luo Xue absorbed it all, effortlessly and gracefully.
The radiant light of the Honored Position descended, and Luo Xue’s new Honored Position emerged.
Eighth position, in front of the sword!
Her original Void Realm Honored Position was released, returning to heaven and earth, waiting for the opening of the Void Heaven Divine Realm.
Both Luo Xue and Lin Fengmian heaved a long sigh of relief. This time, they had narrowly escaped disaster.
From the time Luo Xue took the pill to Jun Yunshang’s ascension, ten days had passed. The dissipation of the Honored Position and the opening of the Void Heaven Divine Realm took another twelve days.
She had spent six days in the Divine Realm of Void Heaven, leaving her with just over a day to spare. It had been a close call.
If they had been trapped in the Void Chaos, or if Luo Xue had returned even a moment later, they might have failed.
Luo Xue exhaled deeply and pressed a hand to her chest, muttering, “You almost scared me to death this time.”
Lin Fengmian chuckled awkwardly. “My fault, my fault.”
But soon, Luo Xue realized that something was wrong. She touched her chest.
Where’s my chest? It’s gone again?
She looked down and couldn’t help but laugh helplessly.
This guy’s character was as consistent as ever, never failing to disappoint her.
This time, he had even wrapped her chest with a binding cloth, no wonder she felt so constricted.
Well done!
Truly deserving of “praise”!
She gritted her teeth and said, “Lin Fengmian, don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”
