The Cyan Snake finally awoke.

When she opened her weak, beautiful eyes and saw the one dressed in white sitting beside her, the Cyan Snake felt as if she was in a different world, and she spoke in a daze.

"Sister?"

It was just such a faint call.

That made the White Snake burst into tears of joy and hug the Cyan Snake tightly.

"Xiao Qing!"

"Sister... it's really you, thank goodness!"

Feeling the other's soft body and warm temperature, tears welled up in the Cyan Snake's cold, beautiful eyes.

Eight hundred years.

For this day, she waited a full eight hundred years!

Similarly, the White Snake also waited for eight hundred years.

The sisters embraced each other for a long time, overwhelmed with joy, their sobs unceasing.

At the rear courtyard.

Lin Heng, hearing the noise inside the quiet chamber, allowed a faint smile to appear at the corner of his mouth. He continued his alchemy in an unperturbed manner and did not disturb the Cyan and White Snakes.

After the prolonged embrace, the Cyan Snake finally remembered her ordeal at Jinshan Temple.

She felt the airflow within her body, and her Great Power Realm had already fallen, leaving her barely with Grandmaster Cultivation.

This did not bring pain to the Cyan Snake; instead, her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion.

"Sister, what happened? How am I not dead?"

Outside Leifeng Pagoda, after suffering a fatal blow from the Grand Array, the Cyan Snake vaguely remembered that her Divine Soul was about to dissipate, yet at this moment, she was still alive.

This left her extremely surprised and bewildered.

The White Snake smiled gently upon hearing this and softly said:

"It was the Daoist who saved you with a Ninth Grade Elixir!"

"Daoist? Ninth Grade Elixir?"

The Cyan Snake was stunned, her beautiful eyes scanning the surroundings, and then she realized she was in a Daoist quiet chamber.

She incredulously said, "Is this the Celestial Master's Mansion? Wasn't Dragon and Tiger Mountain sealed long ago?"

Upon hearing that it was a Ninth Grade Elixir that saved her, the Cyan Snake reflexively thought it was the action of Dragon and Tiger Mountain.

However, the White Snake shook her head with a slight smile and said:

"No, this is Qingfeng Temple."

"Dragon and Tiger Mountain has indeed been sealed."

The Cyan Snake frowned slightly: "Qingfeng Temple?"

She murmured a few times, then her beautiful eyes widened suddenly.

"Qingfeng Temple?"

"The small Daoist Temple on White Cliff Mountain?"

"That's right, this is the place!" The White Snake said with a gentle smile.

The Cyan Snake was utterly blank upon hearing this.

"Sister... are you saying that it was the Daoist from Qingfeng Temple who saved me with a Ninth Grade Elixir?"

The White Snake nodded and said: "Indeed!"

After speaking, a hint of emotion appeared on her incomparably beautiful face, and she said:

"To save you, Observatory Master Lin not only used a Ninth Grade Elixir but even brought out the nearly extinct Earth Nourishing and Connecting Demon Ginseng. He has tirelessly been treating your Dao injuries these days."

"Xiao Qing, he has given us a life-renewing favor!"

"This..."

On the Cyan Snake's cold face, there was a trace of astonishment.

She could hardly believe that the Daoist, who was merely at the Grandmaster Realm, possessed a Ninth Grade Spirit Pill and also had such rare Treasure Medicine as Earth Nourishing and Connecting Demon Ginseng?

She remembered going to this place before heading to Jinshan Temple.

At that time, she didn't think much of that Daoist's abilities.

Yet, at Jinshan Temple, the scene where that Daoist wielded the Immortal Sword to repel the Celestial Pearl Monk with one slash and then toppled Leifeng Pagoda with another was shocking to her, who was already on her last breath.

Little did she know, after she fell unconscious, the Daoist forcibly saved her life?

This could not help but make the Cyan Snake sigh.

"Sister is right; this indeed is a life-renewing favor..."

The Cyan Snake muttered with her pale lips, and suddenly, she seemed to feel something and looked through the quiet chamber towards the rear courtyard.

The White Snake then said, "Observatory Master Lin is concocting pills."

The Cyan Snake said, "I will thank him in person."

With that, she attempted to lift her weak form, only to find herself wearing a Daoist Robe.

The Cyan Snake was slightly stunned, biting her lips with furrowed brows, and said, "Sister, who changed my clothes?"

"This..."

The White Snake hesitated for a moment but ultimately replied truthfully:

"Your injuries were too severe, and for the Observatory Master to treat you, there inevitably needed to be some skin contact, thus..."

She knew well that her sister's temperament was upright and could not tolerate outsiders' touch, so her tone paused slightly.

Fortunately, the Cyan Snake was only momentarily silent, then she said softly:

"For us who practice cultivation, we should not be bothered by trifles. He saved my life; how could I not know gratitude."

"That's good."

The White Snake breathed a sigh of relief, supporting the Cyan Snake as they slowly left the quiet chamber, then looking towards the center of the rear courtyard.

There stood an unadorned Alchemy Furnace.

At that moment, Lin Heng, whose figure was tall and refined, stood leisurely by the Alchemy Furnace, occasionally making a few moves, all of which caused the mysterious aura within the Pill Furnace to rise.

"Xiao Qing, express your gratitude to the Observatory Master for saving your life."

The Cyan Snake spoke, her tone still cold, but she bowed and nodded, her attitude sincere.

Lin Heng did not turn to look at her, his eyes still focused on the Alchemy Furnace.

"Hmm."

A response extremely concise and indifferent, without a single superfluous word.

This left the Cyan Snake slightly stunned, biting her lips as if wanting to speak but hesitated.

At this time, the Black Bear Spirit suddenly rushed in. Upon seeing the Cyan Snake being supported by the White Snake, it first froze, then joyfully said:

"Ho, finally awake, all the Boss's efforts these past days have paid off."

"Congratulations, Cyan Snake Immortal, you managed to snatch back a life!"

"From now on, you should properly repay our Boss!"

"Best if you could..."

The straightforward Black Bear Spirit, about to suggest that the Cyan Snake become a dual cultivation furnace for the Boss.

Lin Heng interrupted it promptly, finding it irritating.

"If you have something to say, say it, if you want to fart, fart, if not, then get out quickly, stop spouting nonsense!"

The Black Bear Spirit retracted its neck at these words, remembering its purpose, and said sheepishly:

"There's something, something urgent!"

"The demons from the mountain have issued a crucial warning that Abbot Ku Wu of Jinshan Temple, along with four Celestial Pearl Monks, are coming this way!"

Hmm?

Upon hearing this, the three present raised their eyebrows.

Before they could ask more, an endless Buddha Light suddenly came from the west.

Accompanied by this was an extremely dignified and vast presence.

At this moment, everyone looked westward.

There came a voice, rumbling like thunder.

"Bai Suzhen of Qingcheng Mountain, are you not to bow your head and surrender swiftly?"

In Qingfeng Temple, the White Snake's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, about to respond when a surge of demon aura burst into the sky.

"Bow and surrender? Surrender to you!"

"Bald donkeys of Jinshan Temple, really think you're something?"

"Not enough to keep someone for eight hundred years, yet still unwilling to stop? Really think my Demon Race is easy to bully?"

With the accompanying rebukes, a dozen Demon Kings rose from the ground, and at the same time, over a hundred Great Demons arrayed outside White Cliff Mountain.

The demon aura converged, vast and majestic.

The Abbot Ku Wu, stepping on Buddha Light and approaching along with the four Celestial Pearl Monks, saw this scene and were utterly stupefied.

It was clear they never expected to see hundreds of demons guarding outside White Cliff Mountain?

No, wasn't this supposed to be a Daoist Temple?

Is this not sure the place isn't a demon lair?
