Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: What Method?
Chen Tianlong chuckled wryly without saying anything further, while Wu Mengting beside him widened her eyes and softly asked, "Feifei, how did I swallow the Great Rejuvenation Pill?"
Wu Mengting had a Great Rejuvenation Pill in her pocket too, but it seemed quite large. It was impossible to swallow it without being aware. At the very least, there must be water, but there wasn’t even a bottle or bowl here, so how did she drink water?
"Ahem, ahem, well, Qiukui, let’s talk after we get out of here, the air isn’t circulating well." Chen Tianlong said, giving Pure Yang Feifei a look to signal her not to say more.
Probably, this girl wouldn’t know how to think if she learned that Chen Tianlong fed her water with his mouth, while Pure Yang Feifei was just trying to embarrass Chen Tianlong a bit.
So Pure Yang Feifei said, "Sister Qiukui, Chen Tianlong used a special method to give you water, then you swallowed it."
"Ah! What special method?" Wu Mengting asked curiously.
"Ahem, ahem, well, you have to ask him personally, this method is quite outstanding, not only to take advantage but also save someone." Pure Yang Feifei started embellishing.
"Gah?"
Chen Tianlong shot a glance at Pure Yang Feifei, thinking, this mischievous girl should have just said it plainly from the start, now it’s even more exaggerated, it’s worse than directly using the mouth.
"Chen Tianlong, how did you feed me?"
Wu Mengting blinked her eyes at Chen Tianlong and said.
Chen Tianlong was speechless, could this Qiukui stop being so cute? So fierce when fighting, yet so adorable in conversation.
"Well, Qiukui, I held water in my hands for you to drink. Hehe."
After saying this, Chen Tianlong directly pulled Wu Mengting out, "Let’s all go out together, haven’t eaten for a day, I’m so hungry."
Wu Mengting was dragged by Chen Tianlong like an obedient little lamb, following him out.
Afterward, Lin Hao and others also followed them out, the mission completed, and there was accountability to report to the master.
At this point, both Pure Yang Feifei and Lin Hao felt much more relaxed. Soon, they arrived at the Life and Death Gate, the other tunnel here should lead out.
This adventure into the Forbidden Land was indeed incredibly thrilling, fortunately, it was safe, everyone was alright.
Wu Mengting gave Chen Tianlong a cheerful smile, feeling a bit unwilling, because once out of this cave, she and Chen Tianlong might become strangers.
She sincerely hoped never to leave this cave, so she could always stay by Chen Tianlong’s side.
But this isn’t very realistic, some things have to be faced. Previously, Chen Tianlong mentioned taking responsibility, but Wu Mengting was truly fallen for Chen Tianlong, genuinely in love. After this near-death experience, Wu Mengting deeply understood that she and Chen Tianlong were destined by heaven, no matter how she dodged, ultimately they would end up together.
When Chen Tianlong’s life was threatened, she fended off without hesitation, that’s love.
However, now Chen Tianlong has his own life, while the Demonic Qi inside her might explode anytime, once erupted, she’d lose sanity and do silly things.
So, until the Demonic Qi is completely dispelled, Wu Mengting dared not acknowledge Chen Tianlong.
Pure Yang Feifei also noticed Qiukui’s affection for Chen Tianlong, how could Chen Tianlong not realize? But for now, he would take things step by step, not wanting to let Lin Wushuang down.
Chen Tianlong exhaled deeply, smiled at Qiukui, then said, "Alright, let’s take the Life Gate tunnel to leave, it must be an exit, and Hao Shuai surely escaped from here."
Chen Tianlong was so certain because he saw the bloodstains at the entrance, the traces left when Hao Shuai was injured.
With that, Chen Tianlong took Qiukui’s hand again, knowing perhaps once they walk through this tunnel, he might never have the courage to hold Qiukui’s hand again.
This might be the last time, even so, he wanted to give her a special memory.
Sometimes, Chen Tianlong thought, if life were only as it was at first sight, how great would that be, without emotional entanglements, no one owes anyone happiness.
Yet now, since entering the Celestial Pill Sect, has his encounter with Qiukui truly been like the first meeting? Maybe even he doesn’t believe it.
Soon, the crowd reached outside the exit, a long-awaited breeze blew across.
Here was the exit of a cave, but it was on a mountainside, getting down wasn’t that easy yet. Chen Tianlong suddenly thought about how Hao Shuai managed to get down, wasn’t he injured?
But in the next moment, Chen Tianlong noticed not far from the entrance there was a big tree, with vines tied at its base. Chen Tianlong walked over to check, the vines stretched downward to the foot of the mountain.
This entrance wasn’t high from the mountain foot, carefully reckoning, at most fifty meters, yet it was relatively hidden, besides the tree at the entrance, there were many weeds, it’s basically hard to discover from outside.
And they were all Celestial Dao masters, so had no need for vines, after Pure Yang Feifei and the fellow brothers and sisters nodded, they leapt down.
After smiling at each other, Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting also clasped hands and descended, but Chen Tianlong did something extra. Upon leaping out, just in case, he swiftly compressed a Powerful Qi Bomb in his hand and pushed it downward, while Wu Mengting gently embraced Chen Tianlong from behind.
In an instant, a long-lost romantic feeling began to ignite, and from this moment, their destined encounter unfolded.
"No matter if Chen Tianlong remembers me or not, I’ll love him for a lifetime, never changing." Wu Mengting silently vowed, yet didn’t tell Chen Tianlong, only gently leaning her face on his back, quietly descending.
"Xiaogu!" Chen Tianlong shouted loudly.
Less than three minutes after landing, suddenly from afar a cry of a giant eagle was heard. During the last trial, Xiaogu was present, presumably it’s not far now.
Sure enough, soon Xiaogu appeared in front of them, Chen Tianlong leapt up, taking Wu Mengting onto the giant eagle.
"Qiukui, let’s fly straight back to Lingyun Pavilion." Chen Tianlong said.
"Ah? It can fly, huh? Okay, you’re in charge!" Wu Mengting pretended to be surprised, then obediently agreed, she couldn’t bear to leave this warm moment.
"Alright, let me inform Senior Brother Lin Hao." With that, Chen Tianlong shouted towards those ahead, "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, I’ll head back to Lingyun Pavilion first, you guys take your time."
"Alright, you go ahead!" Lin Hao shouted back.
The two of them rode Xiaogu, quickly heading towards Lingyun Pavilion.
Along the edge of the Celestial Pill Sect.
Hao Shuai barely made it to the exit of the Celestial Pill Sect, he had long swallowed the Great Rejuvenation Pill, but his internal injuries were too severe, and he fainted in a haze.
