Chapter 2523: Recovery



Tong Jie, her face pale and her eyes wide with shock, rushed toward the wreckage, her heart pounding with fear. She had sensed the violent fluctuations in energy, the sudden surge of power that had shaken the very core of the palace.

Amidst the ruins, Yun Lintian, Xi Xurou, and Cai Xieren were safe and sound under Yun Lintian's barrier.

Tong Jie breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.

"What happened?" She stared at Yun Lintian coldly.

Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly and said nothing. Earlier, he had been about to pry into the creature's soul and accidentally triggered a trap inside. It was clearly meant to prevent anyone from searching the creature's memory.

Yun Lintian could have suppressed the explosion, but he felt it was a waste of energy. He decided to take everyone under cover instead.

A lingering fear still gripped Xi Xurou's heart. The explosion earlier was definitely more than enough to blast her to smithereens. Thankfully, the chamber's defensive formation could barely suppress it. Otherwise, the entire palace would have been turned to a wasteland.

She calmed down. "Clear the scene and leave. Also, bring Xia Nongyue here."

Although Tong Jie and the other elders were curious, they didn't dare to disobey. After cleaning the place, they quickly left.

Soon, Tong Jie brought Xia Nongyue over and bowed deeply before leaving.

Xia Nongyue looked at the unconscious Cai Xieren and then at Yun Lintian. "Can you help her?" she asked hopefully.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Yes," Yun Lintian nodded and took out a bed before placing Cai Xieren on it.

Yun Lintian sat beside Cai Xieren, his gaze gentle as he reached out and placed his hand on her forehead. He closed his eyes, his divine sense extending into the depths of her soul ocean, carefully navigating the delicate pathways of her consciousness.

"It's me, Sister Cai," Xia Nongyue said quickly. "Do you remember anything?"

Cai Xieren's brow furrowed slightly as she tried to recall her memories. Fragments of images flickered through her mind, like scattered pieces of a shattered mirror. She remembered entering the Haven, a realm of breathtaking beauty and serenity, a stark contrast to the chaotic expanse of the Abyssal Rift.

"The Haven..." she murmured, her voice barely a whisper. "It was...peaceful."

A wave of confusion washed over her as she struggled to grasp the elusive memories. "I remember....training," she continued, her voice laced with uncertainty. "But...there's something...something missing."

Xia Nongyue's heart ached for her friend's confusion. She hugged her gently. "It's fine. You don't have to think about it."

Cai Xieren ignored her and continued to speak to herself. "I remember they brought me to the Land of Chaos, the heart of the Haven. I stayed there for a long time, training hard. I couldn't remember anything afterward."

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. When he had checked her soul earlier, there wasn't any direct injury to it. Clearly, she must have been taken by surprise.

However, he wasn't surprised, as it was the Lord of Chaos's territory, after all. Cai Xieren was like a fish on a chopping board the moment she stepped into the Haven.

Cai Xieren noticed Yun Lintian. "Who are you? Thank you for saving me."

"I'm Yun Lintian, the Beyond Heaven King's successor," Yun Lintian said calmly.

Cai Xieren trembled, her eyes widening in shock. She broke out of Xia Nongyue's embrace and grabbed Yun Lintian's arms. "Where is he?"

"Calm down," Yun Lintian said. "I don't know where he is right now. I have never met him."

Cai Xieren stared at Yun Lintian for a moment and let go of his arms. "I'm sorry. I was too

excited."

"It's fine. Take a good rest first, and we will talk about it later," Yun Lintian said.
