Chapter 727: Ya''an''s Troubled Heart


    In the midst of the Suiyang City ruins, there was a particrly clean and open area where Zhan Qingfeng and the others were waiting.


    Qin Feng’s soul that had entered the Netherworld Realm had been drawn back to the mortal world by the Soul Attracting Formation.


    However, due to the prolonged time away, the fusion of his soul and physical body still required some effort, so at the moment he could only sense the movements around him, but was unable to open his eyes and move his body.


    Zhan Qingfeng asked anxiously: “Brother Qin hasn’te up yet?”


    Ya’an’s tone was filled with worry, “It’s been so long, he… he couldn’t have run into trouble, right?”


    Shen Li spoke with difficulty, “Hurry up and talk to Junior brother, I can’t hold on much longer.”


    ‘Brother, you really need to work harder at your endurance…’ Qin Feng inwardly mocked.


    But Qin Feng didn’t know that Soul Attracting Formation was an extremelyplex formation that consumes a lot of soul and energy, and once it is started, it cannot be stopped at will.


    This adds up to nearly two sticks of incense, which was almost the limit of Shen Li.Sun Qi panted, “My junior brother has already merged into the Soul Attracting Formation, but I don’t understand why he’s still not waking up.”


    “Originally, there were no precedents of a living soul entering the Netherworld Realm, so perhaps there was an error in the teacher’s n, and something went wrong somewhere.”


    Hearing what Bajie Brother said, Qin Feng fell into contemtion.


    ‘Based on what Senior Brother Bajie said, could it be that the teacher had already anticipated the possible troubles I would encounter in Suiyang City?’


    ‘In that case, was I being plotted against by the enemy, or was I being plotted against by the teacher?’


    ‘I feel like I’m just a chess piece being moved around by someone.’


    ‘No, being a fish on a cutting board might be a more fitting analogy for my identity. But even if I’m just fish meat, I’ll be a tuna, this is myst bit of stubbornness…’


    ‘Huh? My body seems to have regained sensation, but I still can’t control it freely.’


    ‘What’s behind my head, it’s soft and ratherfortable.’


    After regaining the sense of touch, his sense of smell also quickly returned to normal.


    Qin Feng’s nose was filled with the refreshing fragrance of a woman – it was Bai Wushuang’s scent, which he was very familiar with.


    Recalling her graceful figure, Qin Feng began to suspect what was supporting his head.


    Gurgle~


    That was the sound of Bai Wushuang’s hungry stomach.


    After the previous intense battle, and then staying still for a long time to protect Qin Feng’s physical body, she was now extremely famished.


    Seeing this, Ya’an seized the opportunity and took out many pastries from the Spatial Ring.


    “Miss Wushuang, you must be quite tired as well. Why don’t you let me take over, and you can go eat something over there?”


    Bai Wushuang’s eyes lit up at the sight of the exquisite pastries, “Great, great!”


    Zhan Qingfeng heard this and felt that his Brother Qin’s chastity was in danger. He was just about to speak up to stop it, but then he saw the cold re from Ya’an and swallowed his words, turning his head away.


    Qin Feng felt his body shift slightly, and apletely different fragrance entered his nostrils.


    The aroma was still soothing to the heart, but the soft, plump pillow had suddenly be rather pointy.


    If he had to describe it, it would be like cing a cherry on top of a slightly risen bread dough…


    Qin Feng couldn’t help but think with pity, if this person ever had a child, that child’s childhood would be quite difficult.


    At this moment, the Heavenly Tower National Teacher returned, but the City God was no longer in sight.


    He nced at Ya’an and Qin Feng and raised his eyebrows slightly.


    Ya’an said nervously, “I just saw that Miss Wushuang was tired, so I took her ce for a while.”


    The oblivious Shen Li said, “Actually, you could just have ced him on the ground as well.”


    “But… it wouldn’t befortable on the ground, right?” Ya’an replied.


    Lying on you or lying on the ground isn’t that much different, many of those present thought, but no one voiced it.


    Sun Qi told the Heavenly Tower National Teacher about Qin Feng not waking up.


    The Heavenly Tower National Teacher replied calmly, “It’s nothing, it’s just that his soul and physical body have not fully fused yet.”


    As soon as he said this, the Heavenly Tower National Teacher suddenly let out a light call, “Soul, return!”


    His voice carried a mysterious power, directly prating Qin Feng’s mind.


    At this moment, his soul and physical body finally fully fused together, and he slowly opened his eyes.


    The first thing he saw was a delicate face, a straight nose, and a pair of beautiful eyes with slightly reddened eyelids.


    Ya’an was both surprised and delighted, “You’ve finally woken up.”


    “Mm.” Qin Feng shook his head lightly, slowly sitting up, feeling a bit dizzy, likely a lingering effect from his soul being separated from the body for too long.


    Ya’an nced at their current position, her face suddenly flushing red as she hastily backed away.


    Although she had volunteered to rece Wushuang, the concept of a conscious person versus an unconscious one was vastly different.


    She had never been this intimate with any man before in her life.


    But thinking back to how she felt just now, it made her heart pound.


    She secretly looked at Qin Feng, but thetter didn’t care.


    Feeling dejected, Ya’an also felt a tinge of regret – if only the teacher had returned a littleter, she could have hugged him for a bit longer…


    Thinking this, she cast a resentful look towards the distant figure of the white-robed, white-haired Heavenly Tower National Teacher.


    Suddenly, a loud bang rang out!


    The Heavenly Tower National Teacher’s figure vanished into thin air, leaving behind a small paper talisman fluttering to the ground.


    …


    The cmity in Suiyang City had finally passed. Although the city was in ruins, most of themoners had remained unharmed under the protection of the Immortal Technique “Seeing Flowers in the Mist.”


    As long as the people were safe, rebuilding Suiyang City was merely a matter of time.


    The local Demon ying Department had beenpletely wiped out after the cmity, which had drawn the high attention of Commander Nan Tainlong and others.


    In the empty Demon ying Department of Suiyang City, the great hall was filled with people, including Qin Feng and the others.


    After hearing the details from Qin Feng, Nan Tianlong and the rest had grave expressions.


    The ability to manifest incarnations through the power of incense offerings, as well as the mysterious means to rapidly increase one’s strength, especially the terrifying monster from the previous night, had cast a shadow over everyone’s hearts…


    “If what you say is true, then we must pay extra attention to all the new shrines that have appeared in the Southern Domain.”


    “After all, no one knows if an incident like the one in Suiyang City might happen again,” Sima Kong, the Immortal Spear, said solemnly.


    Hearing this, the group fell into somber silence.


    The logic was clear to everyone, but putting it into practice was easier said than done.


    The Mad de Zhen Tianyi directly voiced his concerns –


    The Southern Domain was vast in territory, and aside from the towns, there were many remote rural viges. The former was rtively manageable, as they usually had a Demon ying Department stationed, but who could keep an eye on thetter?


    Even though the Demon ying Departments across the regions would arrange patrols to survey thend, the number of viges destroyed by Demons and Ghosts in a single night was still terrifyingly high.


    To prevent the Immortal Realm’s Gods and Demons from taking advantage of such an environment was no less than a fool’s dream.


    At this point, Qin Feng suddenly spoke up, “I do have an idea that might help narrow down the area of vignce.”


    Everyone turned to look at him.


    “From my previous understanding, for the Immortal Realm’s Gods and Demons to manifest incarnations through the power of incense offerings, they would certainly have requirements for the amount of spiritual power.”


    “And those remote rural viges have sparse poptions, which obviously cannot provide enough spiritual power.”


    “So those Gods and Demons, if they want to corrupt people’s hearts and collect spiritual power, they must choose locations with dense human poptions, like cities!”


    Nan Tianlong nodded in agreement, “But even so, we cannot be everywhere at once.”


    “Just like Suiyang City, even if there is a Demon ying Department in charge, they will be bewitched by the Gods and Demons and lose their original intention.”


    Qin Feng thought for a moment before speaking again, “If my guess is correct, the ces where the Immortal Realm’s Gods and Demons can descend to the mortal world will not be too far from the Immortal Realm’s rifts.”


    “If we can use the Immortal Realm’s rifts as the center and expand outwards, then strengthen the defense and vignce of the cities within a thousand-mile radius, we should be able to prevent disasters like the one in Suiyang City from happening again.”
