Chapter 5104: Resolving Doubts

Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Feng Jiu emerged from the water, dried herself off, and dressed before going to check on Mo Ze. Seeing he was still fast asleep, she removed the barrier and said to Leng Shuang behind her, "You may withdraw. I’ll rest here tonight."

Upon hearing this, Leng Shuang responded with a nod before withdrawing and closing the door.

Feng Jiu approached the bedside, her hand gently caressing Mo Ze’s sleeping face. She murmured softly, "Ze, I’m back. Do you know? I’m right here. When will you wake?"

Her hand slid down from his face to his chest, gently lifting the hem of his robe. She gazed at the unopened black lotus imprinted upon his heart, letting out a silent sigh.

Her Blue Lotus was both the Primordial Chaoa Blue Lotus and the Creation Blue Lotus. Though she had faced grave peril when first obtaining it, she had overcome every obstacle along her journey.

Mo Chen had nearly perished, his divine essence nearly extinguished, for her sake. It was the Primordial Golden Lotus that reshaped his immortal body, allowing him to ascend and gain new life. Even after enduring life and death, he now stood as a mighty Saint Emperor, exalted and peerless.

As for the Crimson Lotus, it remained sealed within Yue’er, bound along with her life-bound flames, for fear she was too young to bear its power.

But this Black Lotus... whoever possessed it among the cultivators ultimately met their demise. Now it lay imprinted upon Mo Ze. She truly did not know what would happen when he awoke.

She sighed softly, settling gently beside him. Nestling close, she wrapped an arm around his waist. Gazing at his pleasingly handsome sleeping face mere inches away, the corners of her lips lifted into a faint smile.

"Ze, after all these years apart, you seem to have grown even more handsome! You’re such a sight for sore eyes, don’t you think?" she murmured softly. With him by her side and the exhaustion of recent days weighing heavily upon her, she drifted into a deep slumber without realizing it.

As if hearing her words, Mo Ze’s fingers, resting at his side, twitched ever so slightly...

Deep into the night, the courtyard lay in utter stillness. Within the chamber, the soft glow of a night pearl spilled across the room, faintly illuminating two figures embraced in sleep behind the gauze curtains on the inner bed...

The next day, Feng Jiu slept straight through until noon. Guan Xilin and the others knew she’d been exhausted these past days, so no one disturbed her. They simply waited in the front courtyard for her to wake.

Since her return, they hadn’t had a proper chance to sit down and talk with her. How had she fared in the Upper Immortal Realm these past years? How had she managed to return here? Questions swirled in their minds, all waiting to be asked and answered.

After Feng Jiu washed up at noon and stepped out of her room, Guan Xilin, who had been pacing outside, led her to the front courtyard.

"Why is everyone here?" Feng Jiu sat in the main seat, raising an eyebrow as she looked at them.

"Ah, Little Jiu, you know we have many questions for you. But are you hungry? Would you like to eat something first?" Guan Xilin asked, coming to sit beside her.

"No need." Feng Jiu smiled, looking at the group. "I know what you want to ask. Since we’re finally sitting down to talk, let’s have a proper chat!"

At her words, the group exchanged glances, each unconsciously breaking into a smile. Du Fan spoke first: "Master, how did you suddenly come down? Aren’t you supposed to be unable to descend after ascending? How did you manage it?"
