Pacing back and forth inside Bai Hanyun’s dantian, the Yang Mirror asked, [Then what should we do now? I just recovered less than thirty percent of my energy. If not for my wife’s tily rescue and the thin spiritual energy left in this world, I might have fallen into a deep slumber for centuries.]
Considering his words, Bai Hanyun paused and asked, ’Yang Mirror, how much energy do you need to open a space portal to send us back to my world?’
The Yang Mirror halted mid-step and replied, [At least sixty percent.]
Recalling the golden light particles and the warm feeling she felt when she visited the temple, Bai Hanyun’s eyes brightened.
’Yang Mirror, how long will it take you to reach sixty percent of your full energy if you absorb rit?’ she asked.
Realizing what she was planning, the Yang Mirror answered with a hint of excitent, [One day is enough.]
Bai Hanyun did a quick calculation and said, ’You can recover about thirty percent of your energy in twenty-four hours by absorbing rit. The place with the most abundant rit is the temple. If I stay in the temple for one day, you can restore your energy to sixty percent, right?’
[Yes,] the Yang Mirror excitedly confird her words.
Getting his answer, Bai Hanyun made a decisive decision. ’Great. Then I will stay in the temple until it’s ti to go to Xiquan City.’
The Yang Mirror sounded confused. [Girl, why do you want to follow that young man to Xiquan City? Isn’t it better to wait here and stay in the temple? We can absorb more rit while waiting for him to return.]
If Bai Hanyun could see him, she would have looked at him as if he were the dumbest mirror in existence.
’Are you stupid? I’m not from this world. I’m the one who provides food, water, and even creates rain here. If soone with ill intentions discovers this while Feng Xiyan is away, do you think I can protect myself?’ she asked while rolling her eyes.
[Doesn’t that young man still have subordinates nearby? If anything happens, you can rely on them. Besides, he even assigned you shadow guards as bodyguards,] the Yang Mirror countered.
Bai Hanyun clenched her hands and replied calmly, ’People in this world can betray , but Feng Xiyan won’t. I can only fully trust him. Even those generals and shadow guards are loyal to Feng Xiyan, not to .’
’What if they are forced to choose between Feng Xiyan’s interests and my life? You said, which one will they choose?’ she added.
The Yang Mirror pondered her words, then asked, [But they wouldn’t be so foolish as to cut off their own supply line to gain a little more, would they?]
Bai Hanyun chuckled coldly. She sighed inwardly and explained, ’You have lived a long ti. Why are you still so naive?’
’If soone kills , they can find another person to be your master. The supply problem would be solved easily. Besides, isn’t Gui Ying still waiting for an opportunity to get you and your wife back?’
Although the Yang Mirror knew no one could force him to accept an unrecognized master, hearing Bai Hanyun’s hard tone made him feel a sudden pang of pity for her.
Sitting in her clear, bright dantian, he sighed and thought, ’What kind of life forged such a cold, calculating, ruthless heart? Young man, it won’t be easy for you to lt the ice inside her. Sigh...’
Receiving no verbal reply from the Yang Mirror, Bai Hanyun assud he agreed with her plan.
’Since you are silent, I will take that as consent. We will stay in the temple until the day we depart for Xiquan City. You’d better absorb as much rit as you can while we are there.’
Sensing her determination, the Yang Mirror brightened and replied with fighting spirit, [Leave it to ! I will absorb all the rit in the temple so we can return to your world as soon as possible!]
With that, the two of them reached an agreent. After traveling for almost an hour, the coachman pulled the reins, and Xiao Cui got down from the carriage.
As she helped Bai Hanyun down, Xiao Cui said, "Miss Bai, the ground is slippery. Please be careful."
Holding the paper oil umbrella, Bai Hanyun looked toward the temple’s entrance and saw golden light particles floating in the air. The sheer amount of them stunned her for a mont.
’Heavens! Yang Mirror, look at those rits floating in the air! Quick, absorb them!’
No less excited than Bai Hanyun, the Yang Mirror felt his weakened body suddenly grow stronger, and the pain in his soul eased considerably.
Sitting cross-legged inside Bai Hanyun’s dantian, the Yang Mirror urged, [Girl, quickly go to the main temple. That place has the thickest rit!]
The mont Bai Hanyun heard this, her eyes lit up.
She turned to Xiao Cui and said, "Xiao Cui, go back and let Feng Xiyan know that I will stay in the temple until it’s ti to leave for Xiquan City. Tell him not to worry and to focus on his preparations."
"Miss Bai, wait—"
Before Xiao Cui could stop her, Bai Hanyun lifted her long dress and hurried up the stone stairs, followed closely by Feng Wu.
Seeing that she left in such a rush, Xiao Cui had no choice but to turn to the coachman. "Return to the mansion."
"Yes, Miss Xiao Cui."
After Xiao Cui boarded the carriage, the coachman flicked his whip, and the carriage rolled away through the rain, heading back to the Great General’s Mansion.
anwhile, Bai Hanyun’s excitent grew as she noticed that the closer she got to the main temple, the denser the golden light particles beca.
Glancing at her glowing face as she stared into the air, Feng Wu grew curious but restrained himself from asking.
Not long after, Bai Hanyun arrived at the main temple.
Looking at the building shrouded in thick golden light, she couldn’t help but take a sharp breath and exclaid excitedly, ’With this much rit, we should be able to return in no ti!’
[Yes.]
