Sensing the condition inside Shi Ling’s body, Shi Feng couldn’t help but marvel at the absurdity of the little guy’s innate spiritual body. That small fra was like a bottomless pit that could never be filled.
Fortunately, this place had beco a small sacred land, rich in Heavenly Earth Yuan Qi, which allowed the little guy to absorb it so furiously. If outside, where Primordial Energy was scarce and there were no pills to supplent it, it would take who knows how many years for the Dantian within to accumulate so much Primordial Power.
Although Shi Feng wished Shi Ling could always stay by his side, the Death Forbidden Land was simply too dangerous. He didn’t want the little guy to risk the journey with him, so he decided to leave her in the Imperial Palace.
Shi Feng looked at Shi Ling for a while, and then he executed the Nine Nether Undying Body to heal his own injuries, so that his currently fla-burned, rotting appearance wouldn’t frighten Little Shiling.
It was only after his flesh wounds had healed that Shi Feng stopped circulating the Nine Nether Technique.
"Ling’er, Ling’er!" Shi Feng called to the cultivating little guy with the power of his soul, gently waking Shi Ling from her cultivation state with this tender thod.
After a while, Shi Ling slowly opened her eyes, and as soon as she saw Shi Feng standing in front of her, her chubby little face imdiately revealed a happy smile. It was as if a flower had instantly blood, and then, she joyfully shouted, "Brother!"
"You’re awake, huh!" Shi Feng also smiled as he looked at Shi Ling’s chubby little face.
"Mm!" Little Shiling, hearing Shi Feng’s words, nodded vigorously, which reminded Shi Feng of their life back in Xiuling Village.
Back then, Shi Feng would wake Little Shiling gently in the morning, and as she opened her eyes, she’d sweetly call out with a smile: "Brother!"
Suddenly, it was as if the two had returned to those days!
Shi Feng quickly snapped out of his mories. He knew that ever since he had recovered his past life mories, that simple life, where every day was only about getting by, was temporarily out of reach.
Perhaps one day, once he’d climbed back to the peak of his previous life and slain those Martial Emperors who had set up the killing array to assassinate him in a previous life, he could find a quiet place with his sister and mother to live a life as peaceful as those days.
"Brother will be going to a very dangerous place. For now, you should stay by mother’s side and take good care of her," Shi Feng told Shi Ling.
"Brother, where are you preparing to go? Ling’er wants to go with you!" said Shi Ling.
"That place is no place for children!" declared Shi Feng resolutely. The Death Forbidden Land, a place so perilous that even he wasn’t sure he could make it out alive—how could he possibly let his only sister go with him?
Hearing Shi Feng’s words, Little Shiling was shocked and exclaid, "Ah! Brother! Are you really going to that kind of place? I once heard Er Fatty from the village say only bad n go there! Brother, have you beco a bad man?"
Er Fatty was a child from Xiuling Village, about ten years old, who, because of his plump figure, was called Er Fatty by the villagers.
"Little one, what are you thinking about?" Shi Feng felt both amused and exasperated upon hearing what the little rascal had said, for when he previously took Shi Ling to Moon City, they had passed by those places of pleasure on several occasions. Shi Ling was always curious, often asking him what those places were and what the sisters were doing there. It seems that later, from Er Fatty in the village, Shi Ling learned that those were places only bad n would visit.
"Brother is going to a very far place, and if you co with , then there will be no one to stay with Mother. So you must be good, and rember, when I’m not here, you have to listen to Mother’s words!" Shi Feng said again.
After listening to Shi Feng, Shi Ling thought for a mont and then obediently nodded her head, saying, "Brother, don’t worry. Ling’er will be very good and will listen to Mother. But Brother, you must co back soon, or Ling’er will miss you."
Shi Feng slowly approached Shi Ling, reached out his hand to ruffle her little head, and heaved a sigh in his heart. In this world now, the ones he could least bear to leave were his mother and this little sister.
Who would have thought that the owner of Netherworld Purgatory, that arrogant figure who once looked down upon the world with billions of Ghost Soldiers under his command, Emperor Nine Nether, would also show such a sentintal side. Shi Feng nodded to Shi Ling and said, "I will, as soon as I’ve dealt with the matters at hand, I’ll be back at the first opportunity!"
Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Shi Ling smiled and nodded her head. Then, Shi Feng woke up Little Moli who was in a cultivating state, and soon after, Shi Feng, Shi Ling, Little Moli, and Hong Yue, all four flashed with a crimson light, and they left the space of the Blood-colored Stone Stele and arrived together at the War God Hall.
Shi Feng also set up a floating Array for the reclining Hong Yue, suspending her body in the Void. From the mont they entered the stone stele, Shi Feng noticed that in just these few short days, the dark patterns on Hong Yue’s exposed skin, like spider webs, seed to beco more nurous and dense, and the color of the lines was getting darker.
"Alas!" Once again looking at Hong Yue, Shi Feng heaved yet another sigh, then turned to Little Moli who was guarding beside Hong Yue, also looking worried and sad, and consoled her, "Little Moli, it’s rumored the Death Forbidden Land carries the legendary Divine dicine. I plan to enter. As long as I find the Divine dicine, Hong Yue will definitely be fine!"
"You! You’re going to the Death Forbidden Land!" The na Death Forbidden Land was a place well-known to any Martial Artist of the Heavenly Mist Empire, as it represented a land of death.
Looking at Shi Feng, Little Moli lowered her head again to look at Hong Yue whose injuries seed to be worsening by the day, and a conflicted expression appeared on her face. She wanted Shi Feng to enter the Death Forbidden Land to seek the Divine dicine for her senior sister, yet she did not want him to go to that deadly place.
Since it had appeared more than three hundred years ago, no Martial Artist had ever entered the Death Forbidden Land and co out again.
Shi Feng might not even know it himself, but Little Moli grew up with Hong Yue and spent all this ti together with her to the present. Although Hong Yue had never said it outright, Little Moli could tell that the senior sister had feelings for this young man and was even willing to sacrifice her own life for him, taking a lethal blow in his place.
If it was her senior sister, she wouldn’t want him to take such a risk for her sake, right? But if he didn’t take the risk, then her senior sister... might never see her gentle, kind senior sister ever again.
After glancing down at Hong Yue again, Little Moli fell silent, unsure whether or not to let Shi Feng go.
Afterward, Shi Feng saw Little Moli once again lowering her head and continuously looking at Hong Yue, so he didn’t say anything more. He instructed Mo Yang to take good care of Hong Yue and Long ng, and then, carrying Shi Ling, his figure moved, and he flew out of the War God Hall.
