Chapter 550: Chapter 550: 227: Yan Xiong Gets Captured_2

Afterward, Wei Zhengqing stood up, clasped his fist toward Lin Jing, and said:

“Many thanks, Brother Lin…”

“If not for Brother Lin, I fear it would have been very difficult for me to recover to my current state.”

At this moment, Wei Zhengqing had recovered from all his injuries. Although the Demonic Qi hadn’t been expelled, his entire condition had undergone an earth-shattering change.

The current Wei Zhengqing was not much different from before he was injured.

Lin Jing waved his hand and said:

“Brother Wei, you’re too kind.”

Wei Zhengqing shook his head and earnestly said:

“To you, Brother Lin, what you’ve done may not seem much, but for me, to be free of the torment of the Demonic Qi, it really feels like being reborn.”

Lin Jing then spoke to comfort Wei Zhengqing and said to him:

“Brother Wei, let’s go outside first.”

“Siyue must still be waiting outside, she’s probably getting anxious.”

After hearing this, Wei Zhengqing nodded and said:

“Good…”

Having said that, the two of them left the bedroom and walked outside.

When the two came outside, Wei Siyue was waiting, not only Wei Siyue but also Lin Jue and Ye Yun, as well as the Little Sparrow on Lin Jue’s shoulder.

Seeing the two men approaching, Wei Siyue hurriedly ran over.

After Wei Siyue came over, seeing Wei Zhengqing’s ruddy complexion, not showing any signs of injury, and his cultivation aura had also returned to the state before he was injured.

Wei Siyue was immediately thrilled, her eyes reddening, she looked up at Wei Zhengqing and asked:

“Daddy…”

“Are you all better now?”

Wei Zhengqing stepped forward, looked down at Wei Siyue, stroked her head, and then said:

“Not completely better…”

“But thanks to your Uncle Lin’s help, I’m much better now…”

“You’ve really had a hard time these years.”

Wei Siyue kept shaking her head:@@novelbin@@

“As long as you’re alright, Daddy, I don’t mind the hardship…”

After speaking, Wei Siyue, with a worried expression on her face, quietly asked Wei Zhengqing:

“Daddy, can’t your injury be healed?”

Wei Zhengqing, with a smile on his face, crouched down, stroked Wei Siyue’s head, looking at her affectionately and comforted her softly:

“Don’t worry, Siyue, I can definitely heal this injury, see, it’s not bothering me anymore, right?”

Wei Zhengqing didn’t tell Wei Siyue the whole truth.

“That’s really wonderful…” Wei Siyue exclaimed excitedly.

At that moment.

Lin Jue and Ye Yun also came over:

“Brother…”

“Master…”

Lin Jing nodded and then looked at the two of them, asking:

“Have the two of you finished your business?”

The two nodded, and then Lin Jue said:

“Yes, it’s all finished…”

“So, can we go to the Nanming Domain now?”

Lin Jing thought for a moment and said to them:

“Let’s wait a little longer, there’s no rush…”

After that, Lin Jing turned his head, looked at Wei Zhengqing, and asked:

“Brother Wei…”

“We plan to travel to the Nanming Domain, do you have any plans to return to the Nanming Domain?”

After reassuring Wei Siyue, Wei Zhengqing stood up, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

“It’s true that I haven’t returned to the Nanming Domain for a long time.”

“However, as Brother Lin is aware, with my current condition, it’s not suitable for me to return to the Nanming Domain.”

Wei Zhengqing was right; his current condition indeed made it unsuitable for him to return to the Nanming Domain.

Because…

Even in Bihai City, where the Spiritual Energy was extremely rich, he had to use a Spirit Gathering Array, supported by a large number of Spirit Stones, to create a place where he could absorb Spiritual Power.

In comparison to Bihai City, the Spiritual Energy in the Nanming Domain was even thinner. If Wei Zhengqing wanted to use the same method to delay his injuries, it would cost him a much greater price to create a similar place there.

Such an option was inappropriate.

That was why Wei Zhengqing couldn’t return.

Of course…

There was actually another way.

That would be to have Lin Jing always by his side. With Lin Jing there, he could intervene at any time, help suppress the Demonic Qi, and restore his condition.

However, doing so would be quite troublesome for Lin Jing, and Wei Zhengqing didn’t want to impose too much on Lin Jing, which is why he was reluctant to return to the Nanming Domain.

Afterward, Wei Zhengqing continued:

“Brother Lin…”

“We rarely meet, and now that I’ve recovered, there won’t be any problems for a short while.”

“Why don’t we take this opportunity to gather and have a few drinks? After we’ve met, it won’t be too late for you, Brother Lin, to return to the Nanming Domain.”

Having finished speaking, Wei Zhengqing added with a smile,

“Lin brother’s cooking skills are unparalleled. I had a meal back then, and even after so long, I find myself often missing it.”

On hearing this, Lin Jing also smiled and nodded, saying,

“Of course, no problem.”

“We indeed haven’t seen each other for many years, and now is as good a time as any to catch up…”

As Lin Jing spoke, it seemed as if he suddenly remembered something and quickly asked Wei Zhengqing:

“By the way…”

“Where’s big bear Yan Xiong? I heard he went to find medicine for you. When will he return? We definitely can’t miss him at this reunion…”

Wei Zhengqing nodded, saying,

“Yes…”

“He left three days ago to help find medicine for me.”

“I have been able to hang on till now largely thanks to his care.”

Saying this, Wei Zhengqing thought for a moment, then continued,

“Taking today into account, he has been out for quite some time. If nothing unexpected has happened, he should be back soon.”

“Even if something has delayed him on the road, he will be back by tomorrow at the latest. Lin brother, you can have a look around Bihai City in the meantime, and wait for Yan Xiong to return…”

Lin Jing nodded in agreement, answering,

“Okay…”

“Then I’ll wait here for Yan Xiong’s return.”

“As for these two days, we can tour around together.”

…

In the following two days, Lin Jing, Little Sparrow, Wei Zhengqing and his daughter toured the whole of Bihai City.

They visited Seven Seas Hall, enjoyed a feast at Yingxian Residence, and even went to the plaza where the Cross-realm Transmission Formation was located, and watched for quite some time.

The establishment of the Cross-realm Transmission Formation made Bihai City even livelier, and naturally many people yearned for it.

Even those who couldn’t afford to use it would visit the plaza where the formation was located each day…

A hundred Superior Grade Spirit Stones per person, the cost of using the Cross-realm Transmission Formation was not cheap, but even at such a high price, there were still many who used it every day.

Because each transmission consumed a vast amount of resources.

Therefore, the formation would only activate for groups of at least ten people at a time.

Of course, there are exceptions.

Some people could use it alone.

Such as Ji Xiyue and Ji Ling.

When Lin Jing and the others arrived at the plaza, they just saw Ji Xiyue leading Ji Ling, using the formation to teleport to the Nanming Domain.

At that moment, the plaza was crowded and chaotic, and Ji Xiyue did not notice them.

However, Wei Siyue was very curious about the identities of these two people.

Lin Jue then explained their identities to Wei Siyue.

Wei Siyue had an epiphany.

When Lin Jue mentioned that Lin Jing matched Ji Xiyue in alchemy, and won against her who was touted as the number one alchemy genius of the Xingluo Elixir Sect,

Wei Siyue looked at Lin Jing with admiration in her eyes, astonished beyond measure.

Regularly dealing with Elixir Medicine, how could she not understand what that meant?

She had never expected her Uncle Lin to be so formidable.

…

These past two days, the happiest of all was undoubtedly Wei Siyue.

Ever since Wei Zhengqing was injured, Wei Siyue had grown from an oblivious little girl into someone who was quickly maturing, becoming sensible and well-behaved.

However, in the process of growing up, she also lost the joy of being a child.

Especially later on, when Wei Zhengqing’s injury worsened and he became unable to take care of her,

And Yan Xiong was busy all day earning Spirit Stones and searching for the Elixir Medicine needed for Wei Zhengqing’s treatment, the entire burden of living fell onto Wei Siyue.

Thankfully, Wei Siyue was quite understanding.

While she took care of Wei Zhengqing, she also rented a booth in the Fang Market to engage in the business of selling Elixir Medicines.

At the time, Wei Siyue was not even ten years old yet.

For a little girl under ten years of age, this was far from a simple task.

However,

Fortunately, Wei Siyue persevered and even managed to see some gains.

During these two days, they took Wei Siyue around Bihai City, visiting all the places she had wanted to go but had been afraid to visit before.

And Lin Jing even purchased some Magical Treasures at the Seven Seas Hall to give to Wei Siyue.

That made Wei Siyue quite happy for a while.

However, there was one thing that continually lingered in everyone’s minds.

That was the fact that Yan Xiong had still not returned.

Logically, after so many days, even with delays on the road, Yan Xiong ought to have returned by now.

Yet Yan Xiong had not come back, which kept Wei Zhengqing perpetually restless.

Until this day…

When the group returned, they met ‘Uncle Lian’ who had come for a visit.

‘Uncle Lian’, upon seeing them, told them the unwelcome news.

And that was…

Yan Xiong had been captured by the people of the Moon Demon Sect and was on Black Xing Island…
