“Hold me tight.” Huangfu Qingjue’s voice suddenly came from beside her ear before he grabbed her hand.
Ling Chuxi didn’t think too much and held onto his hand tightly. The warmth of his hand in hers gave Ling Chuxi heart an exceptional feeling of peace.
The light and shadow danced around in front of her. Under Huangfu Qingjue’s lead, Ling Chuxi felt that she had moved further away from the turbulence. Although she was still unable to get rid of the vortex, the whistling of the turbulence in her ear was clearly much weaker.
Her body sank and she finally came to a stop. However, Ling Chuxi did not feel like she was on solid ground. She turned her head and found herself in Huangfu Qingjue’s arms.
Huangfu Qingjue had returned to his original appearance. He stood tall and handsome with his silver hair cascaded down. Although he looked a little tired, he still appeared relaxed and calm. His gaze towards her was gentle yet concerned.
“Are you okay?” asked Ling Chuxi anxiously. Without waiting for Huangfu Qingjue’s reply, she reached out and searched Huangfu Qingjue’s body for injuries and abnormalities.
“Don’t do that. I was fine before, but now that you’ve touched me…” Huangfu Qingjue chuckled and reached out to hold Ling Chuxi’s hand.
Ling Chuxi was stunned, but she immediately understood what Huangfu Qingjue meant. She retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted, and her face began to burn up. Huangfu Qingjue saw Ling Chuxi’s reaction and the smile in his eyes grew. Huangfu Qingjue looked at Ling Chuxi’s slightly red face and white neck. His heart skipped a beat and he lowered his head to plant a kiss on Ling Chuxi’s lips.
Little Red curled up in Ling Chuxi’s bag and waved his little paws in protest. How could she be so intimate in front of him? Did she think he was dead? That was too much!
After Huangfu Qingjue was done with the kiss, he finally let Ling Chuxi go, though he secretly wanted more. The bashful Ling Chuxi only put him in good spirits.
“What is this place?” After Huangfu Qingjue let go of Ling Chuxi, she changed the topic as she looked around. Ling Chuxi now knew that every time Huangfu Qingjue broke the seal to restore his real body, he would consume a lot of essence qi. This sudden recovery was definitely a big problem.
There was a vast and endless space around them. There was no end to it, but there were no mountains, no water, and no colors. There were only strangely-shaped rocks.
The entire space was filled with a faint halo as if she was in a void. Everything in front of her seemed unreal. Although she was standing on solid ground, she could not see the ground when she looked down.
When she looked around, she could still see the terrifying turbulence in the distant sky. She could also faintly hear the sharp and ear-piercing whistling, but the space they were in was peaceful, it was as if it was an independent space that had been completely separated from the chaos.
“This is a dimensional crack,” replied Huangfu Qingjue.
“Dimensional crack?” Ling chuxi repeated doubtfully.
“I told you last time that the big families and races chose to live in different dimensions. The turbulence we experienced just now was the natural barrier between these dimensions, and the dimensional crack was formed when we broke through the dimension. Just like those dimensions, this place is peaceful, but there is no spiritual energy, sun, moon, mountains, and rivers. It is not suitable for survival and cultivation.” Huangfu Qingjue explained.
They had come to a place like this?
