Xin Qingxue retrieved her Ice Soul, and her mood greatly improved, even her gaze towards Li Chen beca much more amiable.
Although this bastard is domineering and very arrogant, at least his conduct is upright and forthright. This alone makes him better than many so-called gentlen.
"There’s sothing strange here, be careful!"
Just as Xin Qingxue was excited, Li Chen once again issued a reminder.
For so reason, hearing Li Chen’s warning made Xin Qingxue’s heart feel warm, as if a gentle stream was nourishing her.
Even the hatred she once felt towards Li Chen had vanished completely.
She casually responded, stored away her Ice Soul, and followed closely.
In front was a wooden door, and Xin Qingxue reached out to push it open.
At that mont:
"Swish!"
A brilliant Bai Guang suddenly shone, Xin Qingxue covered her face with her hand to block the intense light.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in another world.
Xin Qingxue instinctively called out Li Chen’s na.
But there was no response.
"Strange, where did this bastard go, disappearing in the blink of an eye?"
Xin Qingxue was puzzled within her heart.
She steadied herself and began to carefully observe her surroundings.
All around were clouds and mist, shrouding the place, like a Human Fairyland, yet devoid of any vitality.
This caused an inexplicable panic in Xin Qingxue’s heart, and she called out Li Chen’s na again, but still, no one responded.
It was as if Li Chen had completely vanished.
Just as Xin Qingxue was at a loss, a flute sound suddenly ca from afar. lodious and beautiful, ethereal like an Immortal.
Xin Qingxue followed the flute sound, walked several hundred steps, and began to see beautiful winding mountains in the distance, hidden in the hazy mist. It was like being covered with a veil of light gauze, dimly visible, sotis near, sotis far, like a few strokes of light ink brushed against the blue sky.
With the curiosity of exploring an unknown world, she continued forward. After an unknowable ti, the distant mountains revealed themselves, and a winding, clear stream appeared, with two or three koi fish frolicking inside.
Beside the stream, there was a house.
The house was not large, yet elegant and exquisite, harmonizing with the surrounding green mountains and water, Immortal Cranes, flowers, and grass.
From afar, it looked like an incredibly beautiful landscape painting, indescribable.
Strange, how could there be a household here?
Xin Qingxue’s heart was surprised and, just as she was about to investigate further, a figure erged from the house.
Holding a long flute, he quietly played amidst the green mountains and waters.
When she saw the person clearly, Xin Qingxue couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Li Chen?"
The figure was tall and slender, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, a face like jade, graceful and debonair—who else could it be but Li Chen?
Only between his brows, there was less of the domineering aura over the world, replaced by a touch of warmth and gentleness.
"Li Chen!"
Xin Qingxue called Li Chen’s na again.
But that "Li Chen" seed not to hear, instead, he laid down the long flute and entered the house again.
In no ti, he ca out supporting a pregnant woman.
When she saw the pregnant woman clearly, Xin Qingxue almost dropped her eyeballs in shock.
Aside from the protruding belly, this pregnant woman looked exactly like her.
"Li Chen" supported the pregnant woman and said, "Qingxue, why did you co out?"
The pregnant woman smiled and said, "I ca out to bask in the sun, it’s good for the baby!"
"Oh!"
"Li Chen" asked nervously, "Qingxue, what’s wrong?"
"It’s nothing, the baby just kicked !"
"Really, let hear!"
Saying this, he bent down, pressed against Qingxue’s belly, listening quietly.
"Baby, be good, don’t kick mom!"
"The baby is still so small, how can it hear you? By the way, Chen, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"
"I like both boys and girls, preferably one of each!"
"You rogue, one is tiring enough, I don’t want more!"
While speaking, she leaned against Li Chen’s embrace, the breeze brushing her hair at her temples, a smile curved her lips, and her clear eyes were full of happiness.
...
Seeing this scene, Xin Qingxue had already recovered from her initial shock.
At this mont, she too was touched by the warmth of the scene before her, her eyes filled with longing and anticipation.
Isn’t this the ideal life she has hidden deep in her heart and longed for?
Choosing a lover, residing amidst the green mountains and waters, living well for life...
Just as Xin Qingxue was about to lt into this warm scene, imrsed in this honey-like happiness, suddenly a hand fiercely grabbed her wrist.
Before Xin Qingxue could react, Li Chen’s reprimanding voice rang in her ears again.
"This place is extrely strange, stay focused, don’t get distracted!"
Hearing Li Chen’s reprimand, Xin Qingxue abruptly awakened as if she’d been enlightened.
She instinctively glanced around, seeming to have returned to the original world.
Li Chen was standing straight beside her, his expression extrely serious. One hand gripping a Magic Sword, seeming ready to draw it and drink blood anyti.
His other hand was tightly gripping her wrist.
For a mont, Xin Qingxue was sowhat unaccustod. Her expression was a bit confused, her mind blank.
She steadied herself, found her wrist a bit sore, and quickly pulled it out, gently rubbing it twice.
"What are you doing, you hurt !"
Li Chen replied coldly, "If I didn’t pull you out of the Illusion Realm, you would have died here!"
"Illusion Realm?"
Xin Qingxue widened her eyes, full of shock.
Could it be that what she just saw was all an Illusion Realm, yet why did it feel so real, as if it truly happened?
"Yes, Illusion Realm, this place creates a small world of its own, extrely peculiar. If you’re not careful, the nightmares buried deep inside will be drawn out and presented in front of you in mirror form. Once you imrse in it, you’ll end up like them!"
While speaking, Li Chen reached out and pointed ahead.
Xin Qingxue followed the direction he was pointing and saw a bizarre forest of wood carvings.
The carvings were vivid and lifelike, embodying the varied emotions of people, all could be found here.
Xin Qingxue blinked her bright eyes, and asked puzzled, "Strange, why are there wood carvings here?"
Li Chen replied solemnly, "These aren’t wood carvings, but people imrsed in nightmares!"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s answer, Xin Qingxue felt a chill down her spine, her soul shivering.
If Li Chen hadn’t pulled her out of the Illusion Nightmare, she might have beco one of those wooden carvings by now!
Xin Qingxue shivered despite herself, her face full of horror, trembling, and asked, "Are you saying that those who ca inside all turned into wood carvings?"
