Ye Xuan attempted to make advances towards Ye Xiaoying, only to be swiftly and brutally beaten by her. Despite the prolonged and intense assault, Ye Xuan, protected by his Qi Gong, emerged unscathed, much to the astonishment of onlookers. After the conductor intervened, Ye Xuan vowed revenge on Ye Xiaoying in his heart, but she sensed his thoughts, leaving him in fear.

Under Ye Xiaoying’s scrutinizing gaze, Ye Xuan felt as if the air in the entire compartment suddenly turned cold.

He was chilled to the bone, his whole body tense, not daring to breathe even the smallest breath.

Not daring to be careless...

And yet, seeing Ye Xuan in this way, Ye Xiaoying’s cold gaze gradually softened, and she smiled with satisfaction, "Hmm, that’s better!"

Ye Xuan felt a sense of relief.

Ye Xiaoying asked, "Still want to break up?"

Ye Xuan didn’t even think, "No, definitely not breaking up!"

Ye Xiaoying nodded in satisfaction, smiled, then directly snuggled into Ye Xuan’s embrace, like a lazy and blissful little cat.

Ye Xiaoying knew full well that Ye Xuan had been yielding to her all day, simply because he understood that for so long, she had been lonely and alone. Now that their love had finally come together, he just allowed her to vent her feelings.

But all along, the bizarre and strained relationship they had brought Ye Xuan untold pain, even more than hers.

Just more!

Ye Xiaoying would never forget that day in that courtyard house when Ye Xuan asked her if she had fallen in love with him, and she said no.

Her denial at that time caused Ye Xuan immense hurt, even though he never uttered a word about it, Ye Xiaoying knew in her heart.

This was a man who, even when insane, still cared for her. What kind of heartbreak was her "not in love" to him?

If she had understood Ye Xuan’s feelings at the time, they wouldn’t have suffered for that long.

The fault lay with her, but the one who ended up being wronged, was always Ye Xuan.

Ye Xiaoying hugged Ye Xuan tightly, and her usually strong and proud self inadvertently had her beautiful eyes brimming with tears.

Ye Xiaoying pursed her lips and softly said, "Little beggar, why are you so good to me? You were good to me when I was young, and now, you are still so good to me..."

Holding Ye Xiaoying in his arms, Ye Xuan was taken aback by her words, caught off guard by the sudden sentimentality.

With a laugh and a sigh, Ye Xuan said, "Because you are my snotty girl. No matter how beautiful or dazzling you are now, in my eyes, you’re still the one who shared snacks with me, didn’t mind me being dirty, and picked up trash with me."

Ye Xiaoying pouted and said, "But didn’t you say that you don’t like snotty girls, that you’d only marry me if I stopped having a runny nose one day."

Ye Xuan laughed and said, "I don’t like snotty girls, but I love snotty girls."

Ye Xiaoying: "..."

Suddenly, there was something stuck in her throat.

It turned out, more than ten years ago, Ye Xuan had already laid the groundwork for these words, and she was only now realizing it.

Between lovers, it is always like this—teasing and joking.

Just moments ago, there was a scene of a fierce tigress thrashing a handsome young man, and now, they were entwined, inseparable, speaking words that made people blush.

"It’s so gross, I can’t stand it!"

"I need to smoke to relieve the tension."

"Young people these days are just too mushy!"

"Bizarre, these two are really bizarre!"

"..."

Not to mention the single ones, even several elderly couples who had lived together for decades felt a tingling sensation on their scalps, struggling to endure listening to Ye Xuan and Ye Xiaoying’s endless words of love.

Young people, can’t you learn to be more reserved?

Finally, the words of love ceased because Ye Xiaoying fell asleep.

Her journey to the Northwest had been exhausting, coupled with the severe injuries she suffered in the Ancient Tomb Ruins, she had not yet fully recovered, and she unknowingly fell asleep in Ye Xuan’s warm embrace.

This was perhaps the most beautiful, sweet, and restful sleep she’d had in all these years.

The sudden silence allowed the passengers in the compartment to feel relieved, though somewhat unaccustomed.

And Ye Xuan, holding the beauty in his arms, watched as even in sleep, her mouth held a faint smile of happiness, feeling warmth flow through his heart.

Just like that day Ye Xuan had said, his whole life, he’d had no desires or demands, only hoping that the people around him could live well and be happy.

As long as they were well, Ye Xuan would feel satisfied.

"How wonderful..."

Ye Xuan internally sighed, gazing out at the ever-passing scenery outside the window, the smile on his lips growing deeper and more sincere.

Smiling, and smiling, Ye Xuan suddenly furrowed his brows.

He seemed puzzled and confused.

Because in this idle time, he couldn’t help but ponder everything he had experienced on this journey.

The eruption of war aftereffects.

The miracle of coming back to life.

All of this was mysteriously and eerily profound, but Ye Xuan knew very well that it was definitely no coincidence.

"It seems that ever since I stepped into the Qigong realm, the war aftereffects haven’t shown any movement for a long time. That day amid the chaos in the Ancient Tomb Ruins, thousands of enemies surrounded me alone, yet the war aftereffects didn’t erupt at all. Rather, it was when the snotty girl was in danger, that it instantly collapsed and lost control..."

Ye Xuan’s brows knitted tightly as he suddenly realized that the war aftereffects always present in his body seemed to have changed.

This change was very subtle.

It’s like transitioning from being uncontrollable, at risk of eruption at any time, to now, even wanting to erupt is not so easy anymore.

During that chaotic scene, Ye Xuan killed many people, and before Ye Xiaoying appeared, there was no sign at all of the war aftereffects wanting to erupt, this already explained everything.

This made Ye Xuan suspect that what he thought of as war aftereffects might not actually be war aftereffects.

If it was truly a psychological condition, would it change just because his strength had improved? Becoming increasingly severe would fit the logic!

And then there’s the miracle of resurrection.

As the current Divine Doctor and the last descendant of the Divine Doctor Sect, Ye Xuan knew very well the dire state he was in then.

Even consuming a whole Sky Mountain Blood Lotus was powerless to save him, yet inexplicably, he revived and was reborn.

That alone would have been surprising.

The key thing was, after being reborn, Ye Xuan’s strength grew in a bizarre manner, his internal Qigong increased by more than threefold!

This situation was unheard of for Ye Xuan!

All these incidents made him completely puzzled.

"Really eerie."

Ye Xuan shook his head, deciding not to dwell on these matters.

Perhaps only heaven knows what exactly happened. Thank goodness it doesn’t seem to be anything bad. At the very least, without these strange occurrences, Ye Xuan would likely have turned to ash by now.

"Great dangers bring blessings."

Ye Xuan grinned, laughing to himself, "This time I’ve gained the Sky Mountain Blood Lotus and Gathering Spirit Stones, along with several volumes of profound skills. Everything should get better and better."

Ye Xuan looked forward to, upon returning to the East Sea, using the Sky Mountain Blood Lotus and the Six-leaf Ice Heart Herb, to concoct the Divine Medicine that could truly transform living men into dragons, and resurrect the dead, wondering what the scene would look like.

Then, Lin Tong, Leng Qiuge, Liu Ying, and even Su Yumo and Lu Miaochan would no longer be weak women, incapable of catching a chicken!
