With a loud crash, something broke through the space in front of them to form an enormous hole. A strong hot aura charged toward them. The next moment, there was a flash of light and a presence that threatened to annihilate everything around it. The sea below them began to stir.
Lonemoon raised his sword array and all the swords in the air flew toward the intruder. Before they got to the hole, a big golden sword emerged out of it. An overwhelming sword Qi caused Lonemoon’s swords to rebound back and fall to the ground like drops of rain.
That was pretty impressive. His expression darkened as he started to summon his sword intent.

Wait!
Shen Ying, who was beside him, tugged at his arm.

What’s going on?



He looked up and saw that a person had walked out of the hole torn in the sky. The man looked extremely haggard. His hair was in a mess and he was covered in blood and wounds. One hand was holding onto his side and both his eyes were bloodshot. He looked over at the duo and his eyes began to well up. A familiar face wore a crazed expression.

Chef!
Lonemoon’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The man who was covered in blood immediately appeared in front of them. He reached out and pulled Shen Ying into his arms. A low voice sounded by her ear, thick with indignance.

Master…

As soon as the word came out of his mouth, he fell to the ground, as if he had spent his last bit of energy speaking. Just before he hit the floor, Shen Ying instinctively helped him to his feet.

He passed out!
Lonemoon grabbed Chef’s wrist and checked his meridians. He paled and cursed under his breath.
Holy shit, he’s injured to this extent and yet still alive.

Lonemoon turned and saw that the hole was already beginning to seal up. How exactly did Yi Qing get here?


Let’s go back first!
Shen Ying said in a low voice. She turned and tapped on something. Suddenly, another entrance opened beside them. Inside, they could almost see Shen Ying’s familiar room layout.
Lonemoon helped Yi Qing – who was limp as a doll – into the entrance. In seconds, the few of them found themselves back in Shen Ying’s room.

Wait, don’t put him here. Come with me.
Lonemoon was just about to let Yi Qing rest on the couch when Shen Ying pointed to a room by the side and walked in.


It was the same empty white room from before. This time, however, there was a long rectangular stage in the middle of it.

Put Chef there.
Shen Ying pointed to the stage.
Lonemoon helped Yi Qing over. A red light flashed from the stage. At the same time, lines of numbers appeared on top of Chef.
Shen Ying did not speak. She began to tap away at the numbers, causing different colours to flash. Each time a colour flashed, Yi Qing looked slightly better. The wounds that were so deep they could see through to his bones began to heal in front of their very eyes.
Lonemoon looked anxiously at the weak Chef. There was utter silence in the room, all that could be heard was the sound of Shen Ying tapping away on her screen. Looking at Chef’s injuries, Lonemoon could already tell that it was extremely difficult to heal him. What’s more, there was no immortal Qi or even spirit Qi in this world. He could do nothing to help. Yet, Shen Ying did not rest. Her expression remained stern, as if she was conducting a surgery on Yi Qing. She focused hard on the screen and worked for an entire day and night before she finally rested.

His condition has stabilised.
Shen Ying’s expression relaxed and she finally turned to look at Lonemoon. Out of habit, her tense shoulders slumped.
All we have to do now is wait for him to come to.

Lonemoon nodded and glanced at Chef, who was sleeping. He did look much better – no longer white as a sheet. Lonemoon heaved a sigh of relief and walked toward the door.
Let’s go out and wait.
Ai, all they could do was make him worry.
Shen Ying started to follow him out, but something tugged at the corner of her top. She looked down and saw that Yi Qing had tightened his grip on her clothes. He was unconscious, yet his grip was strong. His bloody fingers had caused the corner of her top to turn red.

What’s wrong?
Lonemoon asked, seeing that she was not moving.
Shen Ying wanted to pry Yi Qing’s hand away, but retracted her hand.
I have to stay here to keep an eye on his data. You can go out first.
She turned and tapped on the screen once again. A seat appeared next to her. Shen Ying sat down and resumed scrolling through pages and pages of data.


Lonemoon did not think much of this. He knew he would be of no help even if he remained in the room, so he walked out into the living room.
Chef slept for a total of five days and six nights. Shen Ying was beginning to suspect that something had gone wrong with the recovery process. Just as she was pondering what went wrong, something stirred on the treatment stage. Then, she felt a warmth on her left cheek. A trembling hand was there.

Mas… ter?
Chef opened his eyes to look at her. His eyes were watery and he looked like he was about to break into tears any moment.
Shen Ying’s heart fell as she said,
You’re awake.
She cleared her throat and tried to shake off the strange emotions that she was feeling. Turning around, she sent a message into the living room.
Father Niu, Chef’s awake.

A moment later, the door to the room opened. Lonemoon ran in as quickly as the wind.
Chef, you’re awake? Are you alright!
He scanned Yi Qing from head to toe and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Why do you always end up like this? What happened this time? I’m telling you, this world isn’t like yours. If you try to cheat here, we can’t help you.

Yi Qing kept his gaze on Shen Ying and acted like he could not even hear a word that Lonemoon said. He tugged on Shen Ying’s arm nervously.
Master…. I couldn’t find you. I looked all over the Three Realms… I couldn’t find you.
He lowered his voice, and spoke carefully, as if afraid to break something if he spoke too loudly.
Do you not want me anymore?

Lonemoon glanced at the person in front of him. This was the first time he was seeing Chef so weak. His heart began to hurt and he tried to soften his tone.
Heh… Well, we were in the wrong. But we were sent over here too suddenly. We did not even have time to inform you. It was all that Godfiend’s fault!
Lonemoon felt a sudden urge to beat the Godfiend up.

Let’s talk outside.
Shen Ying stood up. Yi Qing’s gaze followed Shen Ying as his eyes began to well up once more. He looked almost afraid to lose her again. She paused, held onto his hand and brought Yi Qing along with her.
Yi Qing was especially obedient. He followed Shen Ying. He followed extremely closely, making sure to stay close to her so that she would not get lost again.

How exactly did you get injured to this extent?
Lonemoon scanned him from head to toe. Seeing that there was dried blood all around, he frowned, turned around and retrieved a new set of clothes.
Change your clothes. Your dharmic clothing will be of no use now. What’s more, you can’t go out like this.
