Chapter 488, One month
Lu Heng was Yu Junhan’s personal maid.
But this maid’s identity must not be underestimated. Back then there were many noble ladies that wanted to become a niece of Yu Junhan, but they did not have that qualification. It was only because Lu Heng was the daughter of Youyan Pass’ War God Lu Zhaoge and were acquaintances with Yu Junhan that she received this special honour. Truly, those on the waterfront are the first to see the rising moon.
But with that said, although she was a maid, but with Yu Junhan’s temper at that time, she and Lu Heng got along like sisters. the two were very close.
For this reason, Lu Heng had an extremely high status in the empire.
There was a time when Lu Heng went to Youyan Pass for her father’s birthday, where she met a young Youyan officer, who was not very strong, did not have a high status, but was a very talented and outstanding young officer.
The two people fell in love at first sight.
They were a perfect match.
There were many people that supported this relationship.
Who knew that...
Who knew that later, there was a thing that shook the entire empire, and completely changed the fate of Lu Heng and the young man.
And after that nightmare-like incident, Lu Heng returned to the Ancestral Land, back to Yu Junhan’s side, and everyone thought she was dead.
Many times, Lu Heng also thought that she herself was dead.
But today, Yu Junhan’s words were like a lightningbolt, streaking across the dark, the dense fog in Lu Heng’s heart tearing through the sky and bringing a beam of light.
“But... but...”
Lu Heng was still a little hesitant.
Yu Junhan fondly stroked Lu Heng’s hair as she said with a smile, “Silly sister, remember, no matter when, you must fight for your own happiness. The so-called overall situation, the so-called sentient beings, are used to deceive others. Only when one holds their happiness can one can form a lifelong happiness. Each and every one of oneself is a sentient being... All sentient beings have their own lives, you do not need others to take responsibility. Go, the overall situation is clear now, you should go see him, your suffering should be over. Even if the sky collapses you have your older sister to help you support it,” Yu Junhan said in a sympathetic tone.
At the start she spoke in a warm and affectionate tone of voice, but the final words were uttered in an incomparably domineering voice, like an overbearing Goddess, as though whoever dares to make things difficult for Lu Heng was opposing her.
Lu Heng finally could no longer hold back her tears, letting them pour down her cheeks.
She hugged Yu Junhan tightly, before turning away from the [Light Palace].
At first, her footsteps were slow.
But then, she gathered up her dress and ran without stopping...
The yellow light that shone through the gate of the palace pulled Lu Heng’s shadow longer and longer.
For some reason, in that moment of the light and shadow intersecting, Yu Junhan spaced out, gazing at this little sister’s rear figure, and couldn’t help thinking of her own fate.
She could help her rewrite Ah Heng’s fate.
But her own fate, who could help her rewrite it?
“Brother Fei, you... here, are you well?” Yu Junhan let out a long sigh, and then the smile on her face became more and more gentle.
She slowly turned to the cold jade bed.
Looking at the charcoal-like body of Ye Qingyu, Yu Junhan came to the stone bed.
Now that she was by herself, she could finally show her most real self, and need not to maintain the majesty of a princess.
The buried feelings were like a river flooding its banks, no longer controllable.
Yu Junhan only lowered her head, when tears rolled down her face like broken pearls, falling onto her fingertips.
At this time, in the large hall, there was only Yu Junhan.
It was spacious and empty.
And a little cold and lonely.
The sparkling and translucent pearl-like tears dropped onto the layer of thin ice that was sealing Ye Qingyu’s body.
In the absence of people, facing her own son, this powerful goddess could finally put down all toughness and her outer shell, letting tears gush forth like a fountain.
Although her words to Lu Heng were resolute and unhesitating like a sword, what if it was herself in that situation?
The separation back then, was it not also for the so-called overall situation?
A hundred years have passed and now her son was before her eyes, but before she had the chance to reunite with him, he was struck by the Divine Punishment and became like this.
Back then, the first time she saw that person, he was also struck by a lightning. If she had not saved him, he would have died.
But who would have known that the person she rescued was the unparalleled War God, and also her destined love that her fate was entangled with.
After a long while.
Yu Junhan finally wiped away the tears and revealed a gentle smile again, looking at Ye Qingyu. Her slender jade-like fingers gently caressed across and the thin ice gradually melted away and disappeared.
Puff!
A stream of hot air gushed up.
Even though he had been sealed in ice for so many days, there was still hot toxin bubbling in Ye Qingyu’s body.
The heavenly lightning of Divine Punishment was a great injury that even Medical God Ouyang Buping was unable to do anything about. It was evident just how terrifying it was.
Yu Junhan bit her finger.
Drip.
A bead of fresh blood dropped onto Ye Qingyu’s charred body.
Where the blood dripped onto, that charred colour was gradually fading, and vaguely, a layer of red flesh was visible...
Drip drop drip drop.
Continuously, there were scarlet red bead-like blood seeping out from Yu Junhan’s finger, falling onto Ye Qingyu.
And the charcoal colour on Ye Qingyu, washed by the blood, was peeling away little by little.
Layer upon layer of blood and flesh could be seen.
As soon as the blood dripped into the flesh it quickly penetrated in, as though it was from the same body.
Inside this body, the originally weak life force was seemingly absorbing the power contained in the drops of blood and suddenly boiled up.
This process was really astonishing.
In a short moment of time, the vitality of blood and qi was bubbling up like an ocean inside of the whole [Light Palace].
Time slowly went by.
Just how many drops of blood seeped out from Yu Junhan’s fingertip and integrated into Ye Qingyu’s body?
Under that effect of the boiling vitality of blood and qi, Ye Qingyu’s body, as if it was alive, began to repair itself automatically.
In less than half an hour, new flesh and bones were beginning to grow, and even new internal organs and blood marrow were forming.
Yu Junhan’s strength was incredibly profound.
The yuan qi and energy contained in one drop of her blood was superior to those of many Heaven Ascension experts.
So many essence and blood had penetrated into Ye Qingyu’s body. To recreate a body was not a difficult matter at all.
Eventually, Ye Qingyu’s body was completely repaired.
There was no difference between this body and Ye Qingyu’s former body. The reconstruction of Ye Qingyu’s flesh and blood depended on life force to trigger the automatic healing and growth process. It was as though the whole process was restored.
And because within this body, there was the essence and blood of Yu Junhan, this body held more power and potential than before.
Yu Junhan was Ye Qingyu’s mother.
Her blood, like the amniotic fluid, made Ye Qingyu experience a rare opportunity, of which the mysterious benefits were difficult to describe in words.
But even so, there were problems.
It was difficult to repair the body, but more difficult to repair the mind, consciousness, and spirit.
For an expert, the flesh was not the most important.
The most important thing was the mind, which was the response of one’s consciousness.
For a person, the three immortal souls and seven mortal forms were the most important. If the soul was shattered, it would not be found again.
After Yu Junhan restored Ye Qingyu’s body, because she had lost too much essence and blood, her face was pale.
“Child, don’t be afraid, have a good sleep, in a short while you will wake up. This time, mother will not leave you, and will always accompany you.”
Yu Junhan covered Ye Qingyu’s body with a layer of blanket.
The formation of the [Light Palace] was left by the unparalleled War God. It contained infinite mystery, and was the most suitable for cultivating the mind. With time, Ye Qingyu would completely awaken.
Yu Junhan had no doubt about this.
Having done all this, she was a lot more relieved.
She slowly stood up and seeing that the little silver dragon was lazily lying down, she shook her head and said, “Unfortunately, the spirit of the [Light Palace] had been swallowed by you, otherwise Little Yu would have been cured sooner. But you still have a conscience, you sealed off Xiaoyu’s life force at that critical moment, otherwise he would have died. Such is the will of heaven.”
The little silver dragon evidently understood.
He was extremely tired, but shook his tail slightly, his eyes twinkling proudly.
Yu Junhan did not know whether to cry or laugh.
“A sacred silver dragon did not learn well, but learnt from that little lazy dog.”
Little Nine, who was in deep sleep, grumbled softly and moved his body.
Yu Junhan stared at this silly little dog for a long while, finally her eyes flickered with a strange look, and gasped a breath of shock... But she eventually didn’t say anything.
……
Time went by quickly.
One month had already past by in the blink of an eye.
In this one month of time, there had been some great changes that could only be described with the word ‘earthshaking’.
Those who had to bear the brunt were the White Mountain Black Water Brute Race, Hurricane Wave Demon Court and the Great Desert Brute Race, shrinking back to their original territory.
One month ago, the major foreign races marched straight into the territory of the Snow Empire, occupied the upper hand, and defeated the forces of the Human Race of the Snow Empire in one move.
But one month later, when the Human Races main battle armies revealed their real military strength, the armies of foreign races were horrified to find that the strength of the Human Race was far better than their worst estimate at the beginning.
If the main forces of the Human Race had not driven them back to their original territory, and stationed at the frontier line, then before they further counterattack, perhaps the three major foreign races would have had to migrate and retreat from their demon court.
At the recovered territory of the Snow Empire, there were many things waiting to be done.
And the sects within the territory of the Snow Empire were also facing a blast of storm-like shuffling and attack——
