My Master Disconnected Yet Again

"You can tell as well?" Lonemoon glanced at him and nodded . "This Xin Han really has a problem, but this Luo Han Stone is indeed real . " He had known Tao Shu for a long time - he was always able to tell whether a divine artifact was real or not . What Lonemoon did not understand was why Xin Han instigated them to trade the Luo Han Stone for the Spirit Convening Lamp . Could it really be to save Bai Qiao?

"It"s not for her!" As if he could hear Lonemoon"s thoughts, Yi Qing shouted . There was no emotions in his eyes when he looked at Bai Qiao .

"Who cares! Whatever it is, the Luo Han Stone is ours now . " Lonemoon did not want to spend any more time thinking about it . As an aside, he said, "But I saw this Emperor for myself . I really am starting to believe that this man is heartless . " Bai Qiao was so faithful toward him, yet the way he acted showed that he wasn"t in the least bit guilty or moved . He looked like he was carved out of ice .

"He has a heart!"

"Huh?" What does he mean?

Lonemoon frowned . That man did look like a heartless block of ice, but he felt like the coldness was a little… intentional .

What"s more…

"Master said relations.h.i.+ps have nothing to do with the heart - he would not be like this unless he"s r.e.t.a.r.ded!"

Lonemoon rolled his eyes . "Shen Ying, you"re always… Eh! Where"s Shen Ying?" Lonemoon turned around and realised that there was an empty s.p.a.ce where Shen Ying was supposed to be . Shen Ying had mounted Yi Qing"s flying sword together with him . Yet, she was gone now . Suddenly, Lonemoon had a bad feeling in his heart . "Holy s.h.i.+t! When did she disappear?"

"I think it was when we left the heavenly palace… that she disappeared?"

"Wait! Did she enter the heavenly palace with us earlier?"

Yi Qing: "…"

Lonemoon: "…"

Back at the Yi Shui Heavenly Palace, in the ice room .

The thick layers of ice had all disappeared . All around them, the cold air had not yet dissipated . However, it was already less cold than before . At least now, the cold wasn"t slicing into their hearts . The person who was pa.s.sed out on the ice bed had regained consciousness .

She was pressing down onto her chest, gasping for air . After awhile, she turned to get off the bed, but a white light flashed all around her .

"Ah!" Bai Qiao shouted . It was then that she realised an array illuminated under her feet . She looked closely and realised it was an entrapping array .

"Qiao Qiao . " A cold male voice sounded beside her ear . Xin Han suddenly appeared beside her, reaching out to touch her face . "Why were you so rash?"

The woman on the bed paused . Subconsciously, she retreated, avoiding his touch . She scanned him from head to toe . He was saying such sweet things, but he still had an icy demeanour . She looked to the lamp in his hands . Then, anger overcame her .

"What do you want?"

Xin Han showed no hint of expression on his face . He lowered his voice and said, "Qiao Qiao, after all these years, you should know best what I want . Aren"t you the cause of everything that has happened?"

Bai Qiao"s face fell . "What do you mean?"

"What, are you going back on your promise to me?" Xin Han laughed mirthlessly . His eyes seemed to grow colder .

"…" Bai Qiao did not respond . She sat up, becoming more wary .

He suddenly leaned in and his icy cold expression turned into one of pure anger . "In the beginning, when you fell into the mortal realm, if you had not possessed her and stolen her ident.i.ty, how would I have mistaken you for her? She was my Dao Partner, and you stole everything from her . Even after ascending to immortality, you lied to me for so many years . Do you feel any guilt toward her at all?"

"I said it before, I"m not…"

"What"s the point of trying to deny it all now?" Xin Han interrupted her . His eyes grew icy again . "Didn"t you say that you would do anything for me? Now, why don"t you return her body to her?"

"What!" Bai Qiao"s eyes widened .

Xin Han smirked . His entire face came to life as if a thousand stars illuminated it . Bai Qiao hesitated .

"I found…" He said, staring at the woman in front of him, as if trying to find something in her face . "I finally found her reincarnate . You were the one who stole her body in the beginning - isn"t it only right that you return it to her now?"

"You… You want to swap our souls!" Bai Qiao could hardly believe what she heard .

"I just found out as well that she"s in the immortal realm as well . Speaking of which… I should thank you for helping me find the lamp . " He glanced at the lamp in his hand, then looked back at her face . This time, she did not have time to dodge . He wrapped his hands around her neck and said, "You must return what you owe her . "

Bai Qiao could not even make a sound .

Xin Han stared at her for a long time before releasing her . Then, he walked forward, stopping at the innermost wall . At once, he conjured a seal and a map array appeared on the white wall . A few moments later, the entire wall opened in front of their very eyes, revealing a hidden room .

"What did you lock me in here for?" An angry female voice sounded from inside the room . A girl in fully green robes walked out of he room and glared at Xin Han . "You had better release me as soon as you can . Don"t think that it"s a big deal that you"re a Celestial Emperor . My Master is Celestial Emperor Chen Ge . If even one strand of hair is missing from my head, my master would not let you off!"

"Little Xuan . " Xin Han stared blankly at the woman in front of him . He reached out and held her hand .

The girl immediately shook his hand off and shouted, "Don"t touch me! I"ve said it a hundred times - I"m Hui Ling, not your Little Xuan or whatever! I"m not your wife!"

Xin Han did not get angry . Instead, he softened his voice . "You just don"t remember it . Immediately… you"ll regain all your memories . "

"What do you mean?" Hui Ling paused .

Xin Han smiled at her and pulled her along with him to the middle of the house . He pointed to the woman on the bed and said, "Do you remember her?"

"Who is she?" Hui Ling frowned .

"It"s alright if you don"t remember her . I"ve placed a revival spell on her body . You will soon understand everything . " He conjured an array around Hui Ling and anxiously said, "When you become her, I will release the seal I placed on her body . Then, you will remember everything, and you"ll be a Stygian Immortal . "

"A Stygian Immortal!" Hui Ling exclaimed . She understood what he meant at once . "You want to swap our souls? No… No I don"t want it!" She wanted to run, but she was trapped in the array .

"Don"t worry, you will be alright," Xin Han comforted her . He walked to Bai Qiao"s side and placed the Spirit Convening Lamp along the boundaries of the array .

He wanted to activate his powers and perform the soul swapping technique, but Bai Qiao suddenly broke out of the array and charged toward him . Her immortal Qi condensed into a sword which she used to stab him .

Xin Han blocked off the attack with his palm, but a hundred thousand swords appeared in front of him and charged straight toward him . Xin Han was taken aback - he had no choice but to summon his own weapon to block off the swords .

Bai Qiao did not fight any longer . She took the opportunity to run out of the door . She was just about to fly out when an array lit up and sealed the entire exit .

There was another bright flash of light and Bai Qiao fell onto the floor . She was very seriously injured already, and now she began to spit out blood . She was hanging on to what little energy she had not to fall over and lose consciousness again .

Xin Han saw the array that trapped Bai Qiao . There were streaks of blood on it - the array was broken . She had started trying to break the array when he turned his back on her . There was an unspeakable shock in his heart .

"I never thought that you would improve so much in this period . " He smirked, then walked toward her . "But… did you think you can escape? Bai Ti has washed his hands off you . n.o.body will come and rescue you!"

Once he finished speaking, he conjured a spell . There was yet another flash of light and he pointed the spell toward Bai Qiao .

Suddenly, something tightened around his wrist . He could no longer move . The spell in his hand disappeared . A lazy voice spoke .

"Sorry, I"m here!"

Xin Han: "…"

Hui Ling: "…"

Everybody present was silent .

Shen Ying turned to glance at the girl on the floor . She waved and smiled, "Hey! Little Shortie!"

You can tell as well? Lonemoon glanced at him and nodded . This Xin Han really has a problem, but this Luo Han Stone is indeed real . He had known Tao Shu for a long time - he was always able to tell whether a divine artifact was real or not . What Lonemoon did not understand was why Xin Han instigated them to trade the Luo Han Stone for the Spirit Convening Lamp . Could it really be to save Bai Qiao? Its not for her!

Whats more… Master said relations.h.i.+ps have nothing to do with the heart - he would not be like this unless hes r.e.t.a.r.ded! Lonemoon rolled his eyes . Shen Ying, youre always… Eh! Wheres Shen Ying? Lonemoon turned around and realised that there was an empty s.p.a.ce where Shen Ying was supposed to be . Shen Ying had mounted Yi Qings flying sword together with him . Yet, she was gone now . Suddenly, Lonemoon had a bad feeling in his heart . Holy s.h.i.+t! When did she disappear? I think it was when we left the heavenly palace… that she disappeared? Wait!
