Chapter 964 - 950: Feelings Aligned

At this moment, Su Muyao swam up from the seabed and arrived at the coast, not noticing Jing Chu.

She stood by the shore, able to see the horizon more clearly.

However, the horizon was too distant, and Su Muyao couldn’t see Wei Jinmo and Zaizai.

She could only feel their divine and majestic presence in the glow of the setting sun.

Countless Sea Clan Beastmen were kneeling and cheering on the sea surface.

Listening to everyone’s cheers, Su Muyao felt a bit better.

The sky above the Hongmeng Sea was also pervaded by a surge of Origin Energy.

The superpower strength of the Sea Clan Beastmen was also improving.

She knew that now Xiao Jihan, Wen Nanxi, Hua Linye, Yun Qinglan, and Wei Jinmo had all become Beast Gods.

With one more Beast God appearing, the Divine Domain Fragment World would be nearly complete, the Great Dao Rules here could operate normally, the Demon Beasts would be resolved, and she could leave here.

But thinking of Wen Nanxi and the others, Su Muyao felt a bit desolate in her heart, with an indescribable emptiness in her chest.

And she didn’t know how they were doing after becoming Beast Gods, whether they were fine in the Divine Hall.

Although she knew they wouldn’t forget the matters of the mortal world, she couldn’t help but overthink it in her heart.

Su Muyao stood there the whole time, always looking in the direction of the sky, her expression focused.

She really missed them.

But this feeling, she could only adjust herself now.

Meanwhile, Jing Chu, who dived into the sea searching for Su Muyao, was in a panic.

An indescribable suffocating feeling gripped his chest.

"Wife..."

Jing Chu murmured in his heart, exploring the water again and again.

His entire mind was in chaos with urgency.

He could hardly calm down, but fortunately, he used his superpower to sense that there was no sign of his wife in the seabed.

But clearly, there had been his wife’s presence before.

When Jing Chu came up from the water, he suddenly saw Su Muyao.

At the moment he saw Su Muyao, Jing Chu was stunned.

At that moment, it was as if all the surrounding sounds were isolated outside, and the myriad scenes of the world instantly faded into a blurred gray and white, leaving only the familiar figure ahead, vividly etched into his soul.

Looking at Su Muyao, the emotions in his eyes surged too violently, like tides long suppressed, breaking through layers of icy restraints, instantly sweeping through his entire pupils.

A faint sourness gripped his heart fiercely, spreading through his veins to every part of his body.

"Wife... Wife..."

Jing Chu murmured softly, wanting to get closer, yet feeling a sense of hesitance.

For some reason, amidst the noise, Su Muyao suddenly heard a faint voice.

As if telepathically, she looked towards the side of the sea, then saw Jing Chu on the shore.

He stood tall, clad in a smoke-cyan robe like a breeze in the mountains, his figure upright and unblemished, resembling an exquisite painting, ethereal and free-spirited, free of any dust.

With just one glance, Su Muyao knew it was Jing Chu.

Even though he was identical to Wen Nanxi, Su Muyao could instantly distinguish between them.

Su Muyao almost couldn’t believe it, and she blinked hard.

Afraid it was her illusion.

Because after Wen Nanxi and Jing Chu merged, they became a Beast God.

But why was Jing Chu here now?

Could it be that she missed them so much that she was hallucinating?

But after looking several times, there was no mistake, it was Jing Chu.

Only he possessed such an ethereal temperament, whereas Wen Nanxi was more gentle and elegant, they shared the same appearance but had different auras.

At this moment, as the breeze brushed by, she seemed to catch a whiff of pheromones.

She became more certain, it was Jing Chu.

Though Wen Nanxi and Jing Chu came from the same entity, their pheromones were actually different.

"Jing Chu..."

Su Muyao, unable to control herself, walked towards Jing Chu.

She tremulously touched Jing Chu’s brows and eyes, "Jing Chu, is it really you?"

Previously, while at Qingqiu Mountain of the Cang Beast Continent Fox Clan, she had just reunited with Jing Chu for a short while, but because of Nan Feng and Luo Leshuang’s attack on the Fox Clan, many things happened, and after Jing Chu and Wen Nanxi merged to solve Nan Feng, they embarked on the Ascension Road.

Later, when reunited with Wen Nanxi in the Divine Domain Fragment, Jing Chu’s consciousness was still asleep.

Now she finally saw Jing Chu again.

She realized she missed him very much, and was very worried about him.

The longing in Jing Chu’s heart was like a flood, almost ready to burst forth, unable to be contained.

"Wife, it’s me."

When he called her wife, it was the first time Jing Chu felt truly alive.

The longing made it hard for him to control his emotions, a swift layer of moist mist covering his eyes, as a blush spread gently from the corner of his eyes, slowly dyeing his clear eyelashes red.

The red was not intense, yet extremely subdued, like a delicate spot of vermillion blooming in the snowy cold ground, fragile and scorching.

Since 100,000 years ago, the person he had longed for and sought countless days and nights, stood right before him.

"It’s so good, Jing Chu, I see you again."

Su Muyao reached out and hugged Jing Chu tightly.

She hugged without a care.

At this moment, her mind was completely blank, acting entirely on instinct.

Jing Chu also reached out trembling, hugging Su Muyao, and sighed: "Wife."

Jing Chu thought he had countless words to say, yet at this moment, the words stuck in his throat, ultimately turning into a scorching bittersweetness.

His breathing quietly became softer, with an imperceptible trembling, the redness in his eyes grew deeper, mist clouding his gaze, softening and deepening the coldness that used to mark his brows.

Uncontrollable tears slid down from the corner of his eye.

He wished desperately to fuse the person in his arms into the depths of his heart.

Su Muyao leaned in his embrace, listening to his strong heartbeat, slowly regaining her senses.

Coming back to her senses, she gently emerged from his arms, raising her head to look at him, seeing the glistening water at his eye corner, she tenderly reached out to wipe it away.

"Jing Chu, how did you come out? Your body... it wouldn’t have issues, would it?"

"Could it be Nanxi?"

In Su Muyao’s consciousness, it was only when their bodies were whole that they could become the Beast God.

Gently touching her head, Jing Chu softly explained: "No worry, Wen Nanxi’s fine. He’s at the Divine Hall, still the Beast God. It’s just that the Ancient Celestial Snake’s body is unique; after Ascension, my body and consciousness completely restored, all injuries are healed, allowing me to separate again and come to you as an individual consciousness."

Back then, 100,000 years ago, he was but a youth, and she always took care of him, guarding his growth.

Now, he had grown up strong, able to take care of her, protecting her.

Listening to those words, Su Muyao seemed thoughtful and said: "What do you mean, you can stay here, and don’t have to stay in the Divine Hall?"

When she asked this, there was a look of expectation in Su Muyao’s eyes.

Jing Chu smiled gently: "Yes, I don’t need to stay at the Divine Hall; he can stay there instead. Actually, I’m carrying his will, wanting to be beside you, taking care of you."

Su Muyao’s heart stirred tremendously, almost unable to believe, "Nanxi... he wouldn’t forget me?"

"Has he become so selfless that he doesn’t remember his feelings as a Mortal Beast?"

Jing Chu looked at her soothingly: "No, he and I are one. Our feelings are the same. Although he is the Beast God, he will not forget you."

How could he bear to forget?

"It’s just that he has powerful Divine Blood and Divine Power, which suppresses his feelings. Someday, if we can lift the seal, he’ll remain unchanged."

Feeling Su Muyao might not fully understand, Jing Chu patiently elaborated: "Perhaps the Heavenly Dao initially established the Beast God to ensure no personal feelings, thus better setting order rules, maintaining Beast World’s order."

"Maybe the Heavenly Dao worried that excessive personal feelings might cause bias, rendering the rules unfair, and the Beast World would still fall into chaos."

"Thus, when Divine Blood suppresses Mortal Blood, they must become utterly selfless, fair, and just."

Listening to these, Su Muyao understood how essential the Beast World’s survival was for their wellbeing.

Witnessing the ancient battle and seeing the Demon Beasts inside the Gate, Su Muyao further realized the importance of saving the world.

"Jing Chu, I understand."

"Thank you for coming to my side."

Seeing Jing Chu, her mood inexplicably improved.

Jing Chu quietly said: "It’s I who wished to come to your side, it’s I who longed for you."

That sealed emotion of Divine Blood lay on Wen Nanxi; separating, he remained unaffected, still staying with her.

He previously felt the Ancient Celestial Snake wasn’t ideal; now instead, he was thankful for such a constitution.

Jing Chu noticed her pale complexion and said: "Wife, you need rest. Let me take you away from here first."

Su Muyao looked up at the sky, seeing Wei Jinmo and Zaizai were no longer visible; her eyelashes trembled, she bowed her head slightly in agreement.

Jing Chu gently lifted Su Muyao, taking her away from the seaside.

Embracing Su Muyao, they disappeared like a gust of wind.

When they reappeared, it was in a cabin amidst the mountain forest.

"Wife, rest here first. Once you’ve slept well, I’ll take you to find Mei Qingchen."

"Once six Beast Gods appear, you can leave here."

No longer trapped in the Divine Domain Fragment World.

He could take her out.

Hearing this, Su Muyao’s expression shifted, "Is Mei Qingchen still at Ghost Ruins Canyon?"
