When Ye Jing opened her eyes, she found herself lying in a comfortable black coffin that was laid with white linen and sheet. This was the scene that she had often seen herself in…
"I am dead now?"
"No, that is not right. I feel very much alive." In fact Ye Jing felt as though her inner cultivation core was brimming now. As a matter of fact, she was now a peaked great saintess!
Slowly she got up from the coffin and was disturbed that someone had actually changed her clothing to a beautiful black satin that she had never worn before.
She was suddenly flushing and thought, "What if it is a man that has…what if she has already got screwed by him?!"
The thought made her really uncomfortable.
The first thing that she got up was to find a mirror. She was pleasantly pleased that she was still her old self. She was horrified with the thought that Fan Yuqing may really sell her to a brothel to be a cheap whore.
She looked around and saw the familiar white gold walls, "I am in the Goddess Palace now?"
She tried to recall what had happened…
She remembered that she had been killed by Fan Yuqing. When they had clashed with each other, Fan Yuqing really did not hold back and had used all her martial strength. The resultant clash had severed all her meridians and had killed her.
That was what she had thought…
But where was everyone?
She walked out of the room and found herself in a wide corridor that was familiarly decorated with white and gold walls.
Soon she came to a golden door along the corridor and she heard some noises inside.
Curious, she pushed it opened and was startled to see Feng Minyue standing behind Fan Yuqing and her hands were wrapping around Yuqing's tender waist.
They were startled when they saw Ye Jing…
Ye Jing was startled, "The two of you…"
Feng Minyue was flushing, "Don't misunderstand. This is not what you are thinking…"
Ye Jing was thinking, "That is exactly what I am seeing…"
Fan Yuqing smiled coldly, "Don't you know it is polite to knock before you enter? And what up with you and why are you walking around so sneakily?"
Ye Jing was stammering, "I did wrong? I don't even know where I am…"
Fan Yuqing said coldly, "Anyway, don't you babble nonsense at what you have seen. We are only practicing a new dance move."
Ye Jing smiled, "How come you are not glad that I am alive and well?"
Fan Yuqing lifted her white slender leg as she sat down, "Why should I be glad? For 8 years every day, I've been feeding you a drop of my divine blood to nourish you. Even your Yu'Er has been nourishing you with a drop of her phoenix blood every day. You really take such a long time to revive."
Ye Jing was stunned as she looked at her, "8 years?! How can it be? It feels like it only happens yesterday. Are you serious?"
Feng Minyue was smiling, "Welcome back Sister Jing. Yes, it has been 8 long years. Finally you are revived. We have been waiting so long for this day to happen."
Ye Jing stared blankly at them, "I have been dead for 8 long years?"
Fan Yuqing smiled, "If you don't have the Eternal Lotus, I probably won't be able to revive you. Some days ago, I am even considering giving up hope on you. You have really picked a good timing to revive yourself."
Ye Jing smiled weakly, "I know that you are not serious."
Then she was startled, "That means that I am 30 year old? Gosh! I have become an old woman now…"
Fan Yuqing and Feng Minyue had an involuntary twitch on their countenances…
Fan Yuqing sarcastically replied, "If you are old, then what are we? Why did I have such an inconsiderate sister such as you…"
Ye Jing giggled softly, "It is so good to be alive. I am only teasing you." Then she lowered her glances and asked quietly, "Where is my mother consort? Where are Xiaofang and the rest?"
Fan Yuqing said, "Your mother consort is safe and well within the Tranquil City. The Goddess Isa has given her the permission to visit you once a month."
"As for Xiaofang, Gong Nanyan and the rest…" Fan Yuqing said with a bored expression, "I have totally no idea at all. They are not in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth though. As for Xuan Danfeng, she is inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Do you think that I am your caretaker? Why should I know what have happened to the rest?"
Ye Jing clapped her hands as she said with a great resolve, "I'm going to find my mother consort first. Then my next wish list is to find Xiaofang, Gong Nanyan, Chu Yunfeng, Li'Er and Luo Bihua…"
Fan Yuqing suddenly asked, "Sister Jing, you are not a chaste maiden, am I right to say so?"
Ye Jing stammered sheepishly, "Eh? Why do you ask me that?"
Fan Yuqing looked at her, "You didn't have your chastity mark when I help you to change your clothing."
Ye Jing shyly turned around as she flew out of the room, "You are too lecherous sister…I am going to look for my mother consort now…I miss her so much…and where is Yu'Er? Yu'Er…where are you? I'm awakened now…"
She had remembered that her mother consort was with Hua Ni'Er, Hua'Xie'Er, Elder Situ Ling and Elder Sheng and that they had resided somewhere in the Tranquil City.
Ye Jing's voice could still be heard floating along the corridor, "I am alive. I am so much alive. Hahaha."
Fan Yuqing groaned softly, "Does she even know which part of the Tranquil City her mother consort is at?"
Feng Minyue smiled gently, "Sister Jing hasn't changed at all."
Fan Yuqing smiled and her eyes were watery, "To her, everything had just happened only yesterday. To us, it has been 8 long years of waiting. Finally, she is back."
Feng Minyue nodded, "You should at least give her a hug as a welcome."
Fan Yuqing laughed softly, "That will be too awkward for me. I don't want to hug an overage kid like her."
Feng Minyue asked quietly, "Do you think that just now she…"
Fan Yuqing said nonchalantly, "We didn't really do anything out of the norm. That kid won't know anything."
Feng Minyue smiled weakly, "She isn't a kid…"
