The man lowered his eyes, his dark pupils quietly watching her. "If I see Lin Yuran and Ji Binyu in the Dragon Realm, I will catch them for you. When you arrive in the Dragon Realm, you can deal with them."
If that were the case, it would naturally be for the best.
Lin Yuran and Ji Binyu were extremely cunning. If they dared to step into the Dragon Realm, they would surely have means to protect themselves, and it might not be easy to catch them.
There would be time for that, and everything could be done slowly.
Sooner or later, she would personally capture Lin Yuran and Ji Binyu and atone to the people of Lin Country!
With this thought, she withdrew her thoughts and looked at Si Jianye beside her. "Alright, you go to the Dragon Realm first. I will come to find you in the Dragon Realm soon."
Si Jianye stopped speaking, his narrow eyes fixed on her.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
The woman, dressed in white, had her skirt hem playfully lifted by the breeze, her graceful figure perfectly accentuated by the white attire.
Her lightly powdered face was adorned with features so exquisite they were beyond reproach.
"Axi, cover Xin Xin's eyes, and you close your eyes too."
As Si Jianye's low, husky voice fell, Axi was instantly stunned, unable to hide his doubts. "My Lord, why must we close our eyes?"
Si Jianye seemed displeased by his question. His sword-like eyebrows arched, and a chill flashed in his eyes as he cast a cold glance at Axi.
Axi quickly shut his mouth. Without another word, he reached out and covered Si Xin Xin's eyes, then obediently closed his own.
Xiao Zhao blinked, imitating them and closing his eyes.
Seeing the people around him close their eyes one after another, Feng Ninghe paused slightly. "Should I close mine too?"
Si Jianye strode towards her, closing the distance between them in an instant.
The man boldly reached out and embraced her, lowering his head slightly to kiss her soft, sweet lips.
He seemed to be savoring a delicacy, gently nibbling.
As their lips met, the heart in Feng Ninghe's chest pounded fiercely, and her pupils involuntarily contracted.
In this moment, she was also immersed in this deep kiss, forgetting to push the man before her away.
She lost track of how much time had passed until a childish female voice broke the atmosphere.
"Daddy, when can I open my eyes?"
Only then did Si Jianye release the woman in his arms. He gently wiped the saliva from the corner of her lips with his warm fingertip, his low, magnetic voice slowly falling, "Feng Ninghe, don't keep me waiting."
Feng Ninghe felt her cheeks burning.
She quickly shifted her gaze. "Xin Xin, you can open your eyes now."
Axi then released his hands, and Si Xin Xin immediately opened her large, round eyes and looked around. "Daddy, what just happened? Was it something children shouldn't see?"
Xiao Zhao also opened his clear blue eyes. He remained silent, but curiosity had already filled his heart.
Si Jianye gently rubbed Si Xin Xin's head, smoothing her stray hairs. "Xin Xin, Daddy has to leave. You must listen to Mommy carefully if anything happens."
Si Xin Xin reluctantly held Si Jianye's large hand, her small face filled with longing. "Daddy, please be safe in the Dragon Realm!"
Si Jianye smiled. "Don't worry, no one can harm me no matter where I am."
His arrogant words sounded perfectly natural coming from him.
No one doubted his abilities.
Axi felt his eyes sting and couldn't help but reach up to rub them. "My Lord, how I wish I could accompany you. Perhaps I could even be of some help."
The Dragon Realm was densely populated with human-like puppets. Once surrounded and attacked, escaping would be difficult.
One more person meant one more source of strength.
Si Jianye ignored him and strode towards the barrier, turning to look specifically at Feng Ninghe.
"You must watch closely."
With that, he raised his hand and made a gesture in the air.
Si Jianye's eyes turned cold, and his chiseled face was tinged with a hint of frost. "Break!"
As the man's voice fell, a small opening appeared in the barrier.
The man's actions were clearly visible in Feng Ninghe's eyes, and she couldn't help but murmur, "So that's how it is."
The formation-breaking technique Si Jianye used could break the formation without damaging it.
This opening would only appear briefly before closing again.
Si Jianye turned back, quietly looking at everyone before him. "This barrier can only trap cultivators below the Integration Stage. Those above the Integration Stage can enter the formation at any time. On the Xuan Continent, apart from myself, I fear no one's cultivation has reached the Integration Stage."
He was demonstrating specifically for Feng Ninghe.
Teaching her how to break formations.
Feng Ninghe frowned slightly, her expression growing serious. "Integration Stage cultivators are merely legends. Has no one on the Xuan Continent reached the Integration Stage in tens of thousands of years?"
Integration Stage cultivators were like gods.
Si Jianye nodded gently. "It is difficult for anyone on the Xuan Continent to reach the Integration Stage. The spiritual energy here is too thin."
"You mean the spiritual energy in the Dragon Realm is more abundant?" Feng Ninghe grasped the key point in his words.
Si Jianye said no more, his deep eyes holding a trace of reluctance. The sunlight shone freely upon him. "I must go now."
He also had to go and find the truth.
Si Jianye turned around and strode towards the formation.
His figure gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.
Not far away.
Two figures stood quietly.
Su Hongxiu's gentle face held a hint of realization. "So it's because the spiritual energy on the Xuan Continent is too thin. No wonder I couldn't break through to the Integration Stage."
He had once attempted to break through to the Integration Stage.
Even with millions of spirit stones and various elixirs, he had failed to break through.
During his breakthrough attempts, he always felt that the spiritual energy was insufficient for absorption, making it difficult to persist until the breakthrough.
Su Xian stared at the barrier in the sky. "Sixth Master, the formation-breaking technique the Underworld King used just now is not difficult. Even I could remember it after seeing it once. If we remember the formation-breaking technique, can't we go to the Dragon Realm anytime?"
Su Hongxiu's attention was drawn back. He gently shook his head. "This is an ancient formation-breaking technique. Even if you remember it, you may not be able to perform it. However, this Dragon Realm does seem somewhat interesting."
A place that Si Jianye had thought about for so long must have something remarkable about it.
At this moment, he became interested in the Dragon Realm.
Moreover, Feng Ninghe would also go to the Dragon Realm sooner or later.
His intentions were becoming clear.
Su Xian immediately agreed. "Sixth Master, wherever you go, I will go, even to the perilous Dragon Realm, I am willing!"
Su Xian's loyalty was unquestionable.
Su Hongxiu smiled and refused. The soft curves of his face and the smile in his eyes betrayed his amusement. "Su Xian, if you leave with me, there will be no one to manage the sect. The Willow Face Sect still needs you."
These simple words instantly silenced Su Xian.
Although she wanted to go to the Dragon Realm with Su Hongxiu, she also understood that someone needed to manage the Willow Face Sect.
