Junior sister took first place again

Chapter 270 A Moment of Tenderness

As the illusion of the Emperor's Sword dissipated like morning mist, Ning Jiasheng felt a sense of clarity she had never felt before. The image of the Imperial Palace gradually blurred in her vision, replaced by the familiar yet mysterious scenery of the Cangwu Secret Realm.

Spiritual power surged back into his body like a spring, full of vitality and life. Ning Jiasheng closed his eyes, feeling the spiritual power flowing through his meridians. As expected, using his own strength was more natural and reassuring.

Then, she summoned Chi Yan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She gently grasped the hilt of the sword and whispered, "You're the best. I won't give it to anyone, but sooner or later I'll find a chance to break the contract with it."

Chi Yan emitted a crimson fluorescent light and looked very happy.

When he first saw the Emperor's Sword, even though it was broken and still in a dormant state, Chi Yan could feel its power.

Although Chi Yan really hated the Emperor's Sword when he saw it, he was sincerely happy for Ning Jiasheng that his master could contract such a divine sword.

There was a little bit of loss at the beginning, but Chi Yan always followed the will of his master.

After Ning Jiasheng and Chi Yan finished talking, they took out the jade slip and prepared to determine their current location in order to decide where to go next.

She took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling the unique thin spiritual energy within the secret realm. After hiding her body, she used her spiritual sense as her eyes to compare the surrounding environment with the map and quickly determined the direction.

Ning Jiasheng quickly put away the jade slip, looked at the endless desert around him, and used his spiritual power to head northwest.

Ning Jiasheng was thinking about the next trial point all the way and never expected to meet a familiar face here.

In a peaceful oasis ahead, Wen Xingzhou, dressed in the blue Xuanling Sect elder's attire, was quietly waiting. Ning Jiasheng's gaze met his senior brother's, his eyes filled with concern and anticipation.

"Senior Brother, why are you here?" Ning Jiasheng's voice was filled with surprise and a hint of trembling.

Perhaps because she was homesick, or perhaps she was still affected by the illusion of her inner demon, Ning Jiasheng did not rush over. She stopped where she was, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes, looking at the figure in front of her.

Wen Xingzhou noticed Ning Jiasheng's abnormality almost instantly, and his heart suddenly felt as if it had been stung by a bee, with a slight tingling pain.

He instantly flashed over, gently stroked Ning Jiasheng's hair, and said gently, "I know you have your mission, and I believe you can do it well. I can't help you, but my worry never stops. So I sent a wisp of divine consciousness into the secret realm, just to make sure you are safe."

Wen Xingzhou paused, a look of pride flashing in his eyes. He looked at her softly and said softly, "My junior sister has passed the test of the Emperor's Sword and is the undisputed number one among the younger generation."

Ning Jiasheng felt unprecedented peace of mind in the gentle gaze of his senior brother.

She finally threw herself into Wen Xingzhou's arms, hugged him tightly with her hands, rested her head on his chest, and felt his warmth and heartbeat.

"Brother, everything in this illusion is like a nightmare, but now that I see you, all my fears have vanished."

Wen Xingzhou sighed, raised his hands, and gently cupped her face. He stared into her eyes, the tenderness in them overflowing as he spoke word for word like a promise: "I will always be by your side. When you feel tired, come and rest here with me."

Ning Jiasheng nodded slowly and smiled widely.

Due to the turbulent times, the two of them had been spending less time together than together. Before, whenever they met in the sect, they would just go about their business in a hurry. Wen Xingzhou had long been missing his junior sister to the point of illness.

Now that the beauty was right in front of him, with such a bright smile on her face, he couldn't help but kiss Ning Jiasheng's forehead. He then continued to hold his junior sister in his arms, stroking her back again and again, as if she were a small animal that needed care.

Ning Jiasheng closed his eyes and leaned peacefully in his senior brother's warm embrace. The two of them enjoyed a moment of tranquility in this quiet oasis, as if time had stopped at this moment.
