Chapter 259: Don't want to go home
🕑 Added 2025-04-10 12:16:24 +0000 UTC Bo Saixi saluted.
Ye Cheng accepted her salute calmly before saying, “No need to be polite. Anyone in that situation would choose to help. But why did you appear in the City of Slaughter?”
”And why do you have the power of the Sea God?”
Ye Cheng certainly knew the cause and effect of everything, but he couldn’t show that he knew. After all, with his current identity, he shouldn’t know these things. So when you should pretend to be confused, you have to pretend to be confused. You must not show that you know everything, otherwise you will be exposed inadvertently.
Bo Saixi heard his inquiry and wanted to tell him her origins truthfully. But when the words came to her lips, she hesitated, because she felt that if she told the cause and effect. Then the name “Bo Saixi” would almost become a synonym for stupidity and love.
And inexplicably, Bo Saixi didn’t want Ye Cheng to know that she was old enough to be his grandmother. And she had a relationship before… Even if this relationship had not yet begun, it had ended.
Bo Saixi also wanted to do her best to make herself look better in his heart… She didn’t want him to know her unbearable past.
So after hesitating for a moment, Bo Saixi just said: “I… My name is Xi’er, from Sea God Island. I went out for training, but accidentally entered the City of Slaughter and was attacked by that monster… Fortunately, before I went out, I had the protective treasure given by Lord Sea God, so I didn’t have no power to resist."
”Xi’er?”
Ye Cheng was stunned when he heard her self-introduction.
When Bo Saixi heard him read the word “Xi’er” in a magnetic voice, she felt as if there was an electric current passing through her body, and her cheeks couldn’t help but blush… It was the first time someone called her with such a nickname.
In the past, other people would call her by her full name, or call her the high priest. It was the first time she was called by such an intimate name… She never expected that she would be so embarrassed when she heard it. It was so embarrassing.
Looking at Bo Saixi with a shy face in front of him, Ye Cheng was a little speechless. She is already over 100 years old, and she is still pretending to be young.
Hiss… But to be honest, Bo Saixi’s shy look is indeed indescribably charming.
Even Ye Cheng couldn’t help but feel a little moved when he saw it.
It can only be said that appreciating beauty is the nature of every man.
And since Bo Saixi didn’t intend to reveal her true identity, Ye Cheng naturally wouldn’t be idle to expose her. So he nodded and said, “So it’s Miss Xier. I wonder what your plan is next? If you want to return to Sea God Island, I can arrange someone to escort you back. After all, your current situation…” Having said that, he didn’t continue.
Bo Saixi naturally knew her own situation, and her face dimmed. It was just that she was not ready to return to Sea God Island… Now. What’s more, this time if she goes back, she may not come out again…
”I… don’t want to go back yet.” She said in a low voice. Her heart was in a mess, and she felt confused as if she had lost her direction.
”Is that so…”
Seeing her like this, Ye Cheng pondered for a moment. I could guess her complicated psychology of not wanting to go back. After all, it was quite embarrassing to talk about it.
”In that case, why don’t you stay in my house for a while. It won’t be too late to leave when you figure it out.”
When Bo Saixi heard what he said, she couldn’t help but open her eyes wide and looked at him in surprise. His words really surprised her.
”Why…”
”Miss Xi’er doesn’t want to go back to Sea God Island, maybe there is something unspeakable?” Ye Cheng smiled and said, “In that case, I won’t force you. Miss, you can stay here as long as you want. Since I brought you back, I naturally need to be responsible to the end.”
”Thank you…” Bo Saixi blushed slightly, and his words of being responsible to the end made her think a lot.
After chatting for a while, Ye Cheng stood up and said goodbye.
After all, Bo Saixi is still recovering from a serious illness and needs more rest. It is not appropriate to disturb her. After instructing his men to take good care of her, Ye Cheng left.
…
On the other side.
The clone Sun Zhongjing came to a rolling mountain range at this moment. From where he was, he could not see the entire mountain range, but even the outermost mountains, the towering parts had already drilled into the clouds.
”It should be in this area.”
Sun Zhongjing looked around and nodded. Then he rose up, and in front of him was a mountain wall. This mountain wall was extremely steep, almost ninety degrees, but he could fly. Therefore, it was like walking on flat ground for him, and the whole person turned into a rainbow light and headed towards the top of the mountain.
Along the way, he crossed one mountain after another and soon went deep into the mountain range. At this time, bursts of roaring sounds were faintly heard in his ears, and even the air gradually became humid.
Sun Zhongjing knew that he had arrived.
Soon, as he got closer, the roar became louder and louder in his ears, deafening. The air became more humid, and it felt like the temperature here was even lower than the outside world.
Finally, a valley appeared in front of him, or more precisely, a pool of water.
The water in the pool was clear and bottom-high, quiet and deep, like a huge sapphire.
On one side of the valley, a waterfall about 20 meters wide was like a jade belt across a nearly 200-meter-high mountain wall. The rumbling sound was caused by it hitting the pool.
The waterfall poured down and hit the pool, splashing countless water. Under the sunlight, a colorful rainbow spanned the pool, which was indescribably gorgeous.
As soon as Sun Zhongjing arrived here, he felt a clear water vapor coming towards him, and the moist air was refreshing and extremely comfortable.
Surrounded by mountains, with all spirits overlapping in green, in front of him was a rippled sapphire, and there was a magnificent waterfall connecting the sky and the earth. It must be said that this place is really a Feng Shui treasure land.
”Finally found it.”
Looking at the waterfall in front of him, Sun Zhongjing smiled. Then he flew directly in the direction of the waterfall and landed on the waterfall reef.
He did not use his soul power to resist the impact of the waterfall, but the water did not touch his body at all and bounced away automatically.
Then, Sun Zhongjing waved his hand casually, and the rapids falling from the air suddenly rolled up under the action of the huge soul power. After about half the distance, a protruding stone was exposed.
He slapped the air, and it seemed as if something had been triggered. The stone wall that seemed to be tightly closed appeared with a click.
And Sun Zhongjing flashed and went straight in.
I’m afraid no one would have thought that there was another world behind the waterfall.
After entering, he found that perhaps because of the waterfall outside, the cave was very humid. The cave was about three meters high and two meters wide, extending inward. It was very dark inside, but for Sun Zhongjing, who had divine consciousness, the darkness did not affect his vision at all.
