Chapter 1088: Nether Pond
"It’s my Primordial Spirit temporarily residing in this Human Snake’s body; he didn’t absorb my Soul. I wasn’t supposed to come out, but you seem to have inadvertently made him your enemy." Yu Longting’s unique, deep, and magnetic voice flowed into my ears.
Even in someone else’s body, the gentle feeling of being held in his embrace was just like before. "I’m sorry, my Wanwan, for making you worry for so long."
"You... don’t hold me, you’re using someone else’s body." I caught the scent of tobacco from Wuyue and instantly pulled myself out from the tenderness of Yu Longting.
I pushed him away heavily, wearing a wary expression.
Yu Longting showed a helpless look, "I miss you so much, I almost forgot about this."
"Stop with the nonsense, you’d better explain clearly why... why this happened." I grabbed his collar, pounced forward, and pinned Yu Longting against the wall, glaring threateningly, "If you lie in the slightest, I’ll make you pay!"
"Alright, Madam, there is a Demonic Cave beneath the Nether Pond, I took a Buddha statue there to deal with it." Seeing my indignant look, Yu Longting became even more indulgent.
A difficult-to-describe bitterness welled up in my heart as I struggled to control my tears, "I vaguely recall seeing this Nether Pond in the ancient texts left by my father, it’s said to be at the end of the Underworld. Even a Daluo Golden Immortal can’t get out once they go down there. Why did you..."
Using all my strength, I couldn’t help but choke up.
I couldn’t imagine what fate awaited Yu Longting if he went to that legendary place full of vengeful spirits, extremely cold and deep, devouring Spiritual Power.
"Are you asking why I went to such a place?"
"Tell me, Yu! Long! Ting!"
"Only after your eyes were gouged did I understand Yu Qingxiao’s fervor for treasure hunting, it was all for Qing Li." Yu Longting looked at my fierce face, a trace of pain welled up in his eyes, "If I didn’t go, the old man would keep pestering you endlessly, so I thought it was better to suffer once than to suffer continuously..."
"Did you die in the Nether Pond? Were you reborn using this Human Snake?" I was choking severely, my vision completely blurred by tears.
So now he’s a wandering soul, only able to survive by attaching to Wuyue?
All this just to make up for refusing to follow Dragon Dad for treasure hunting at that time, and returning to accompany me during childbirth...
Such sacrifice, such a cost, is far too great!
Yu Longting was truly helpless and wanted to wipe away my tears.
But his hand dared not touch my cheek again, and he furrowed his brow for a long time.
The White Python embroidered on my cheongsam suddenly slithered down, wrapping itself gently around my body, rubbing its head against the tears on my face, "Not dead, just trapped in the Nether Pond and can’t get out, but my Primordial Spirit can."
"..." I instantly hugged the White Python tightly, tears of grievance dropping one after another.
Recalling the time when I thought he was already dead, it was as if living in Hell.
Thankfully... he’s still alive...
I still have a glimmer of hope...
Yu Longting leaned down to whisper in my ear, "I was too worried about you, so I attached myself to the reincarnated giant snake, seeing you about to enter Moonless City, I went in first, into that Human Snake’s body."
"But... I can feel, he’s not you." I said with certainty.
If Yu Longting were Wuyue, he wouldn’t have hidden it from me until now.
Yu Longting let out a light sigh, and the White Python wrapped around me gently coiled around my neck, both affectionate and tender, "My Power of the Primordial Spirit completed his Soul, and he woke up. Although I didn’t directly control his body, he’s very weak and has been influenced by me all along."
