Chapter 1165: Chapter 843: Fanning the Flames

[Ding—Congratulations to the Host for completing the task of destroying the Divine Hall core! Reward: 100,000 system points and 100 world points!]

When Shen Tang woke up, she looked at the ceiling above, which was covered in mottled fallen stones. All around were drafty mud walls, clearly indicating a dilapidated adobe stone house. She was lying on a stone bed covered with soft, clean bedding, which even emitted a faint fragrance.

A man stood by the window, his tall and slender figure, flowing silver hair cascaded casually behind him, as beautiful as a snow lotus on a high mountain, like a picture.

He wore a loose purple robe, which was made of ordinary material, yet appeared noble and transcendent, lazy and casual, impossibly beautiful.

Even though they had been married for many years, Shen Tang was still enthralled by the sight. Moreover, the two hadn’t seen each other for such a long time, making her even more entranced.

Perhaps feeling the intense gaze from the female, Xue Yinzhou turned around and saw Shen Tang awake. He quickly walked to the bedside, sat down, and gently touched her still somewhat pale cheek. His cool and low voice was inexplicably gentle, "Tangtang, are you okay?"

"...I’m fine." Shen Tang shook her head, feeling a little dizzy in her head and weak in her body. Other than that, she didn’t feel uncomfortable.

With her clear, bright black eyes, she scrutinized the silver-haired, purple-clad man before her.

After this rebirth, Xue Yinzhou seemed to become even more handsome and extraordinary. His entire aura was nobly pure and unparalleled, as if every shedding left him renewed. Each time he stunned her anew, making her swoon.

She just felt her mouth was a bit dry, "It’s just... I’m a bit thirsty."

Xue Yinzhou fed her some water.

There was no clean water source here, but Beast Husbands always had essentials like food and drink in their Space, just in case.

Sweet, clear water soothed her throat, and Shen Tang finally felt much more comfortable.

After drinking a bowl of water, her mind finally cleared a bit. She turned her head to look around, bewildered, and asked, "Why did I fall unconscious? What happened?"

She clearly destroyed the Divine Hall core and was inexplicably drawn into a place like the Bright Church, where she saw a stunning and holy angel statue. However, it was all an illusion, and just as she was about to be bewitched, Xue Yinzhou appeared and saved her. After that, she had no memories and awoke in this unfamiliar place.

Xue Yinzhou gently explained, holding her on his lap, "When the Illusion Realm shattered, many space rifts appeared. I took you through one randomly, and we ended up here."

He frowned and continued, "The power in that Illusion Realm Space is very strange. Your spiritual power was severely damaged and will need time to recuperate. I want to find a way to leave after your body is restored."

To return to the original world, one must find a broken space passage and traverse through spatial tunnels.

Forcing traversal without external assistance can severely damage the body. Beastmen below the Primordial Beast Tier could disintegrate if forcibly drawn into a tunnel.

Although given their current power, they do not fear the repercussions of the spatial tunnel, Shen Tang’s body has suffered injuries, and he prefers to wait for her recovery before seeking a way back.

Of course, apart from that, he indeed harbors some other small intentions—after being apart for so long, Xue Yinzhou desires to live a period of solitude with Shen Tang.

Shen Tang was startled upon hearing this, "Where are we now? Could it be we’re not in the original time-space?"

Xue Yinzhou nodded, "Yes, this is an abandoned world."

Shen Tang used the system map to check the outside situation and was even more shocked. The entire world was gray and desolate, not a single blade of grass grew. Nearby were numerous fragmented junkyards and ruins, with remnants of many factories and residential areas indicating that a highly advanced civilization once thrived here. Now, it has become a wasteland, like the remnants of a world that completely collapsed after an apocalypse, devoid of life and vitality.

She scanned the vicinity using the system map. There were many aimlessly wandering mutant species within the ruins, grotesquely shaped and hideous, of various kinds, yet not a single living human could be found. It seemed as though the entire world no longer harbored living creatures... A deep sense of sorrow and desolation filled her heart.

Is this what a completely destroyed world looks like?

Those mutant species appeared to sense the presence of a living person and became extremely excited. Their bleak eyes suddenly burst with crimson, swarming like locusts in a storm, ready to tear any living person to shreds in an instant.
