This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Sheng Zhou was worried.

He hesitated for a moment before chasing after Sheng Yang.

He arrived at the door and was about to push it open when he heard a pained and suppressed sob.

Sheng Zhou’s heart was about to break when he heard Sheng Yang’s cries.

However, he understood that what Sheng Yang needed to do now was to vent her frustration to her heart’s content. If he went, Sheng Yang would only feel vexed.

Sheng Zhou sat on the black stairs outside the door as he waited for Sheng Yang quietly.

Sheng Yang stayed in the room for more than forty minutes before opening the door with red eyes.

Sheng Zhou immediately stood up and turned to look at Sheng Yang. The question he wanted to ask was about to come out of his mouth, but when he saw Sheng Yang’s red eyes, he stopped. “Yang Yang, although I don’t know why you’re sad, I’ll always be with you. If you want to tell me, tell me. I definitely won’t tell anyone else. If you don’t want to tell me, I understand.”

Sheng Zhou understood that everyone had emotional breakdowns and sometimes, they refused to share their sorrow with others.

He wanted to know why Sheng Yang was sad, but he was unwilling to force Sheng Yang to tell him all her secrets.

Sheng Yang forced a smile and told Sheng Zhou, “Eldest Senior Brother, I heard something today that made me very sad, but I can’t tell you about this for the time being. You only need to know that the reason I’m so sad today has nothing to do with our relationship.”

“In the future, you will naturally understand why I’m so sad today.”

Upon hearing this, Sheng Zhou nodded and said, “Alright, then I won’t force you.”

“Okay.”

Sheng Yang wiped her eyes and said, “I’m going to the hot spring with Fourth Brother tonight. Do you want to come?”

“Hot spring?” Sheng Zhou was worried when he thought about how Sheng Yang and Feng Yuncheng, who were both engaged, would spend time alone in the middle of the night.

“It’s not a good idea for me to follow you guys.” Sheng Zhou continued, “But if word gets out that the two of you are soaking in the hot spring alone, it won’t be good for you guys either. How about this? Let’s call Wuque and the others to soak in the hot spring together. At that time, the two of you can soak in a spring alone. We’ll stay in the spring next door.”

“Okay.”

Thus, the young disciples of the Sheng clan went to the hot spring.

There were more than ten hot springs of all sizes at the back of the mountain. Sheng Yang and Feng Yuncheng chose a medium-sized hot spring, while Sheng Wuque and the others were in the largest hot spring.

Everyone was wearing bathrobes.

Sheng Yang and Feng Yuncheng each held a porcelain wine pot as they sat on the man-made stone platform in the spring. As Feng Yuncheng told Sheng Yang about their experiences in the Great World all these years, Sheng Yang was intrigued by every exciting story.

However, because the protagonist of the story was her friends and family, she was on tenterhooks the entire time and had to drink some wine from time to time to calm down.

“In that case, all these years you guys have lived in the Great World has been filled with danger. If you guys weren’t careful, you would have lost your lives.” Shaking her head, Sheng Yang took a sip of wine and lamented, “When the situation stabilizes, when the Holy Spirit Continent and the three thousand worlds rebuild the time and space passageway, I must bring Eldest Senior Brother to those super Great Worlds to take a look.”

Feng Yuncheng looked at her deeply. Seeing that her eyes were filled with yearning and anticipation for the future, he actually felt envious.

Yearning.

It had been a long time since such a gaze appeared in the eyes of the cultivators of the Great World.

“Yang Yang, that day will come.”

“Of course. Come, cheers.”

As the two of them chatted about whatever came to mind, they drank pot after pot of wine. In the end, both of them became drunk.

Feng Yuncheng leaned against the stone behind him and looked at the stars in the sky with blurry eyes as he lamented sadly, “I’m willing to let the stars shine in the night sky. I’m willing to let the human world be harmonious. I’m willing to let Her Highness live a life without worries. But I’m leaving the sufferings of the human world to her. Yang Yang, don’t you think I’m very despicable?”

Sheng Yang revealed a mocking smile and said, “Who isn’t despicable when in love? When we were bachelors, we were happy all alone, but once we fell in love and had someone we loved, we would despicably hope that our lover would become our ideal person. Love makes people greedy, and love makes people reveal their dark side. Fourth Brother, you’re quite despicable, but if I were you…”

Sheng Yang closed her eyes and resigned herself to fate. “I can’t bear to let go of Her Highness’s hand either.”

“I think that compared to pushing her away, Her Highness prefers you holding her hand until the day you die. Even if you only leave Her Highness with longing and loneliness in the future, at least she’ll remember that she had once received all your love.”

Upon hearing this, two drops of tears slid down Feng Yuncheng’s eyes and he lamented, “Yang Yang, you’ve really grown up and become much more sensible.”

Sheng Yang said, “Yes, because there was once someone who loved me deeply like you. It’s just that I had someone else in my heart and couldn’t give him the response he deserved. Fourth Brother, you’re much luckier than that person.”

At the thought of Na Luo, Feng Yuncheng immediately felt that he was much luckier.

The spring water rippled. Accompanied by the sound of water rippling, Sheng Yang suddenly walked to Feng Yuncheng’s side and sat down. Feng Yuncheng slowly opened his eyes and teased Sheng Yang, “Yang Yang, don’t be so close to me. I’m not interested in you. I only have feelings for my family…”

When Feng Yuncheng saw Sheng Yang’s actions, he suddenly shut his mouth.

Sheng Yang was circulating her spiritual energy and using it to force something out of her body.

Feng Yuncheng frowned and asked Sheng Yang, “Yang Yang, what are you doing?!”

Sheng Yang didn’t say anything.

Soon, Feng Yuncheng saw Sheng Yang’s glabella suddenly turn red and a golden fish scale was faintly discernible between her eyebrows. “This is…” As Feng Yuncheng stared at the fish scale, he felt extremely puzzled.

Sheng Yang seemed to be enduring extreme pain.

Under Sheng Yang’s forceful coercion, the golden fish scale separated from Sheng Yang’s flesh and blood bit by bit before turning into a complete hard fish scale that fell from between Sheng Yang’s eyebrows. Sheng Yang caught the fish scale and looked up weakly as she told Feng Yuncheng, “This is the Divine Fish Scale, the key to the ancient mermen’s continuous rebirth. Back then, Na Luo shouldn’t have died, but she wanted to die, so she gave me the Divine Fish Scale and disappeared from the world.”

“Fourth Brother,” Sheng Yang said weakly, “I’m not as outstanding as you guys. You guys have sacrificed too much to protect the three thousand worlds. However, the three thousand worlds don’t owe you guys anything. You guys have protected the three thousand worlds and the Holy Spirit Continent, so someone should protect you guys as well.”

Feng Yuncheng realized what Sheng Yang was going to do and scolded angrily, “Stop! This is a relic given to you by Na Luo. It will block disasters for you. How can you give it to me so easily?! Besides, this thing might not even be useful to me!”

Feng Yuncheng was about to circulate his spiritual energy to force Sheng Yang to stop.

However, Feng Yuncheng realized that he was unable to circulate his spiritual energy.

“My spiritual power…” Feng Yuncheng was in a daze, as if he was very drunk. However, this was only low-alcohol content Green Plum Wine, so he shouldn’t have gotten drunk so easily. Thinking of the reason, Feng Yuncheng widened his eyes and questioned Sheng Yang angrily, “You drugged the wine? ”

“Yes, I released Spiritual Energy Powder. In the next five minutes, your spiritual power will temporarily disappear.” Sheng Yang stuck the Divine Fish Scale between Feng Yuncheng’s eyebrows and said, “This is my wedding gift to you. I hope the Divine Fish Scale can protect you like it protected the ancient Merman and give you a chance to be reborn.”

“Fourth Brother, I wish you and Her Highness a blissful marriage.”

With that, Sheng Yang circulated her spiritual energy again. Under Feng Yuncheng’s angry gaze, she fused the Divine Fish Scale with him.

After doing all of this, Sheng Yang fell into Feng Yuncheng’s arms weakly.

As Feng Yuncheng held Sheng Yang’s shoulder, perhaps it was because he was touched, but his tears made his glasses blur. “You… bastards!” Yu Huang was like this, and so was Sheng Yang.

These bastards.

This world was so wonderful, so he couldn’t let the Great Dao destroy it!

“Fourth Brother, you still don’t know, right?” Sheng Yang smiled and said, “Sister-in-law told me in the past that she always felt that you had many secrets. She even said that eyes are the passageway between everyone and this world. You’re not short-sighted, but you always wear glasses. You’re doing so to seal yourself off. When you were studying in the Divine Realm Academy, she asked us to hang out with you. She said that you’re not as useless as they say you are.”

“Fourth Brother, I don’t know why the Great Dao is so wicked, but I know that you won’t become as wicked as the Great Dao. Because you have us and Your Highness, even if you want to become wicked, we will save you. Fourth Brother, my abilities are limited and I can’t help you defeat the Great Dao, but you have to accept this gift.”

“…Alright, alright, I’ll accept it.” Only then did Feng Yuncheng find out that Sheng Yang and Na Luo were willing to hang out with him in the past because of Yu Huang’s instructions.

At that time, Yu Huang had yet to truly control the Eternal Eye, but her intuition already reminded her to pay more attention to Feng Yuncheng.
