Chapter 19: Awakening

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the middle of the night, other than a few patrolling guards, the Nie family’s residence was as quiet as the rocky hills in the depths of the Demon Abyss.

The Nie family’s residence was much more imposing. After all, they were the head of the five major families. Kong Rui took a look at the terrain and bumped into an acquaintance, Nie Yin.

Nie Yin was strolling in the courtyard while holding a piece of cloth in his hand. Kong Rui took a closer look and realized that it was the headband she had lost earlier.

He fumbled with the headband, picturing the woman as she fell into the abyss.

If not for that idiot Li Ling, he might have already figured out that woman’s background. How could he still be unable to sleep at night, like now?

Ever since he met that woman, he vaguely felt that she wasn’t someone simple.

A woman who could travel alone on Spirit Mountain and had strength comparable to his…

If the other families found her first…

Nie Yin clenched the headband in his hand, his expression determined.

Seeing Nie Yin’s expression, Kong Rui suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

This guy…

He didn’t fancy her, did he?

She shook her head violently, shaking off the ludicrous thought, and hurried away.

Forget it! Everything could wait until she found the little phoenix!

At that time, even if this greedy man didn’t look for her, she would look for him!

After all, she had to avenge Kong Niang!

As soon as Kong Rui left, a black figure suddenly appeared beside Nie Yin.

Nie Yin paused and looked at the wary shadow beside him. “What is it?”

The black shadow said in a low voice, “I felt something strange beside you just now, so I rushed over to take a look.”

Nie Yin glanced around and asked, “What’s unusual?”

The black shadow seemed puzzled for a moment, then said, “I can’t feel it anymore.”

Nie Yin’s heart skipped a beat.

Black Phantom was one of the five hidden experts of the Nie family. There were few people in the world who were above his realm.

Since he sensed that something was amiss, there must be a problem!

But… this person just disappeared into thin air?

Everything went smoothly on Kong Rui’s side. Unexpectedly, something happened to her body.

Chao Bai had lost track of time in the spirit coffin. Recently, he had been in a state of imminent awakening.

The previous battle on Spirit Mountain had destroyed some of the talismans that sealed him.

His spiritual power was gradually recovering. At the same time, it kept tearing open the gap in the seal, allowing him to come out.

On this day, he finally opened his eyes. He had probably been asleep for too long. His eyes looked calm and emotionless.

However, the entire spiritual mountain changed drastically after he woke up. The mountain cracked and magma overflowed. Countless spiritual beasts were migrating in an attempt to avoid the hot magma.

The people from the imperial capital and the Demon Abyss were all looking in the direction of Spirit Mountain solemnly. There was only one thing everyone was praying for…

The queen gripped the scepter in her hand tightly and instructed in a low voice, “That person cannot wake up. Yin Ling, send someone to reinforce the seal quickly. We must not let him wake up!”

“Yes!” Yin Ling replied and disappeared.

The instigator of the huge chaos was frowning at the woman lying beside him.

With a tap of his finger, he easily cracked the protective shield set up by the woman.

He pinched the woman’s face. Her soft skin was smooth and delicate.

Who might she be?

He searched his mind but still found nothing.

He reached out and gently pushed the woman. She didn’t react, but Chao Bai stared at his hand in a daze.

A soulless body?

Interesting!

However, he had just woken up and his spiritual power was recovering slowly.

In the next moment, he fell back into a deep sleep.

This time, his hand closed over the hand of the woman beside him.

In the Demon Abyss.

“It’s over! Boss Kong!” A demonic creature cried out.

“What’s the matter?” Boss Kong felt a headache coming on.

The demon knelt down and cried, “The treasure I gave Rui Rui to protect her body has shattered! Someone must have forcefully broken it!”

“What!” Kong Niang slammed the table. “Who gave that person the guts to touch our people?! Where was the last place you sensed the artifact?”

The demon pointed weakly at Spirit Mountain.

“Tell me the exact location!” Kong Niang grabbed the demon’s collar and said anxiously.

Kong Rui’s body was very important. Nothing could happen to her!

She was really worried and wanted to send a wisp of her divine sense over to take a look.

Kong Rui knew nothing of this.

According to the information she had obtained, the capital was about to hold a spirit beast competition.

This was the most grand competition in the empire. It was held once a year. The families would choose a disciple to compete, and the winner would be rewarded handsomely.

Moreover, it represented great glory and strength. Who wouldn’t want to compete for first place?
