Chapter 720: Goodbye Luo Yiyi_1
"I really didn't expect the Pixiu Secret Realm to be a Divine Star. Even without the Pixiu Treasure, this trip was worth it!" After eating the petal Chu Qin had given her, Shi Yao seemed to have recovered some.
"You're still thinking about the treasure!" Chu Qin said, not amused, yet tenderly looked at Shi Yao, "We were almost dead. Creatures nurtured by the Divine Star and the aura of the Pixiu are bound to be extremely powerful. If we don't restore our divine power, we'll likely die here sooner or later!"
"It's okay, dying together with Lord Chu Qin… With you here, Lord Chu Qin, everything will be fine!" Shi Yao subconsciously wanted to say that dying alongside Chu Qin would be worthwhile, but she thought better of it and corrected herself.
"How do you feel?" asked Chu Qin.
"Much better," Shi Yao replied slowly, sitting up and returning a smile.
Chu Qin gave a light smile, nodded, and then began to untie his black robe, taking it off.
Seeing Chu Qin's actions, Shi Yao felt a mix of nervousness and excitement inside, but then she saw Chu Qin handing over his black robe to her, "Don't be picky, the Soul-Guiding Divine Artifact isn't working, and I don't have any other clothes."
"Lord Chu Qin, this isn't appropriate," Shi Yao said, shaking her head.
"Then do you think this is appropriate now?" Chu Qin said with a light smile.
Upon hearing this, Shi Yao finally looked down at her own body, her face immediately turning red with embarrassment as she hurriedly covered herself, "I'm sorry, Lord Chu Qin, I've lost my composure!"
She had been standing next to Chu Qin in such a state all this time!
Shi Yao was utterly ashamed!
With an indifferent smile, Chu Qin turned away, "It's okay, put on the robe."
Shi Yao no longer hesitated, hurriedly took off her tattered clothes, and put on Chu Qin's robe.
"I'm ready, Lord Chu Qin!" Shi Yao announced.
Chu Qin turned back to her and was momentarily stunned. His body was clearly larger than Shi Yao's, and his black robe on her did not cover her body but instead made her appear even more enticing.
Especially the deep cleavage at her chest.
Shi Yao also noticed this and gently pulled at her chest.
"Put this on too!"
Chu Qin paused, then started to take off his undershirt.
"Lord Chu Qin, if you do this, you'll have no clothes left!" protested Shi Yao.
"I'm a man, it doesn't matter for me. You can't be like this!" Chu Qin said.
"All right then!" Shi Yao, no longer refusing, proceeded to put on Chu Qin's undershirt.
With that, Shi Yao finally looked a bit more decent.
"Drink up the medicine," Chu Qin said as he handed over the bamboo tube to Shi Yao.
Shi Yao didn't refuse and downed the contents of the bamboo tube.
Watching Shi Yao frown, Chu Qin asked with a light smile, "Is it very bitter?"
"Not bitter!" Shi Yao shook her head.
"Don't lie to me. One of the ingredients is particularly bitter," Chu Qin chuckled.
"Alright, it's very bitter," Shi Yao admitted.
"It's getting dark. Let's rest for the night," Chu Qin said, looking at Shi Yao, "Tomorrow we'll find a way to restore our divine power and then search for the others. They must have all been swept in here too."
"Okay!" Shi Yao nodded.
Following that, Chu Qin closed his eyes, sat down cross-legged, and fell directly into sleep.
Watching Chu Qin fall asleep, Shi Yao suddenly had a strong urge to throw herself into his arms. Having such a caring man by her side in this strange place was fatally attractive to any woman.
Not to mention, he was Lord Chu Qin, a peerless good man.
However, after some thought, Shi Yao ultimately gave up and quietly lay down on the ground.
Four hours later, Chu Qin was suddenly awakened by a strange feeling.
His first reaction was to look towards Shi Yao. Seeing her sleeping peacefully, he let out a small sigh of relief.
For a woman like Shi Yao, it was mostly impossible for Chu Qin to let her go, even if he wanted to; the System wouldn't allow it, either.
Of course, Chu Qin wouldn't take advantage of the situation, after all, he also didn't know Shi Yao's thoughts, and let's not forget Xiao Xiyue was also his woman, to whom Shi Yao might have some objections.
Moreover, this was not the time for romance.
Then he looked up, towards the sky.
At that moment, there was an additional bright white orb in the sky, resembling the moon, illuminating the entire land as if it were daytime.
"Strange, by all logic, the energy of the Divine Star is several times that of the outside world, so why can't I sense any divine power fluctuations?" Chu Qin muttered in confusion, "Also, the disappearance of my divine power seems not to be caused by the Lei Di Puppet's explosion, but more like the Pixiu Secret Realm's prohibition effect."
"Forget it, maybe I'm overthinking it. Just sleep peacefully, and find Xiaowu and the others as soon as possible tomorrow!" Saying this, Chu Qin was about to close his eyes and fall back asleep.
At that moment, however, a fierce beast's roar resounded from not too far ahead.
Along with it was a woman's cry for help.
"This is..." Chu Qin glanced at Shi Yao, who was still deep in sleep, and without a second word, shot like the wind into the jungle ahead.
Chu Qin arrived deep in the jungle, where the intense roar of the beast grew even stronger.
Eventually, Chu Qin saw on the clearing of the jungle, a dragon hundreds of meters in length chasing a woman in white on the ground.
That woman in white was running elegantly, full of grace, it was Luo Yiyi!
Luo Yiyi also seemed to be injured, with wounds all over her body.
Chu Qin immediately soared into the air, his fist charging towards the giant dragon.
This dragon had God Rank fighting power, after all, there were no weak creatures within the Divine Star. Yet, in front of Chu Qin, it seemed so frail, sent flying backward with one punch, crashing heavily to the ground.
Chu Qin then landed beside Luo Yiyi and looked at her, asking, "Yi Yi, are you all right?"
"Chu Qin..." Luo Yiyi said in surprise, looking at Chu Qin before fainting away.
After an unknown length of time, Luo Yiyi finally woke up, and the first person she saw was Shi Yao.
"It's you!" Luo Yiyi exclaimed, surprised to see Shi Yao wearing Chu Qin's robe.
"My name is Shi Yao, Miss Yi Yi, you're awake," Shi Yao said with a gentle smile.
"How come I am here?" Luo Yiyi asked with some surprise, "Wasn't it Chu Qin who saved me? Where is he?"
"He did save you. He went to pick some Divine Origin Gold Grass for you," Shi Yao replied.
"Divine Origin Gold Grass? Isn't that the special legendary Immortal Herbs found only on the Divine Star?" Luo Yiyi said in surprise.
"You didn't expect this, did you? There's a lot of Divine Origin Gold Grass and Divine Core Energy Crystals here; this place is the Divine Star," Shi Yao said with a chuckle.
"What? You mean to say, the Pixiu Secret Realm is actually a Divine Star?" Luo Yiyi, extremely clever, immediately pieced everything together and was astonished.
"Yes," Shi Yao nodded.
Luo Yiyi was slightly stunned, "I never would have thought, the Divine Star that the whole universe has been searching for was right beneath the Thunder Emperor Formation, also known as the so-called Pixiu Secret Realm."
"Yes, none of us expected this," Shi Yao smiled and handed a bamboo tube filled with medicinal soup to Luo Yiyi, "Here, drink this medicine."
"Thank you, Miss Shi Yao," Luo Yiyi, taking the tube, expressed her gratitude.
