"What's the matter?" Yang Dingtian was shocked and asked hurriedly.
At this time, Ximen Ningning saw Yang Dingtian covered in blood and immediately whispered, "How did you get hurt like this?"
Then, she touched Yang Dingtian's wound with trembling hands.
"I'm fine, it's just some superficial wounds," Yang Dingtian said. "Tell me, what happened in Cloud Sky City?"
"It's about Yanyan," Ximen Ningning said.
Yang Dingtian was shocked. "What happened to Yanyan?
Did that old bastard Yang Yan use some kind of trick? "
"No, Yanyan is fine," Ximen Ningning said. "Someone from the Sea of Hades came to see Yanyan."
Yang Dingtian was slightly shocked. It wasn't important for someone from the Sea of Hades to see Yanyan.
It wasn't necessary for Ningning to ride the Floating Ray over.
Ningning continued, "Also, I gave you pills and Deep Sea Xuan Clothes this morning, but I forgot the most important thing. I forgot to give you a good weapon and asked you to use a steel sword to kill the demon beasts. When I remembered, I was scared out of my wits, so I quickly rode Yaoyao to find you."
If he had a good weapon, killing the two demon beasts wouldn't be so difficult.
Yang Dingtian didn't have much Xuan Qi, so whether it was the Fiery Demon Wolf or the Wind Shadow Demon Snake, they couldn't even pierce through his skin.
"I'm fine," Yang Dingtian said with a smile.
"Fortunately, you're fine. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself for the rest of my life," Ximen Ningning said. Then, she helped Yang Dingtian onto the Floating Ray.
"I'm fine. I'm not that weak." Yang Dingtian smiled and jumped onto the Floating Ray.
"Yao Yao, you're tired again." Yang Dingtian reached out and touched Floating Ray's neck.
Floating Ray whined and rubbed its neck against Yang Dingtian's palm.
Ningning jumped onto the Floating Ray's back and sat behind Yang Dingtian.
"By the way, have you hunted a Demon Core?" Ximen Ningning asked. Only then did she remember this important matter.
"Got it."
Yang Dingtian said, "I killed a Fiery Demon Wolf and a Wind Snake. I got fire-type and wind-type demon cores."
"Ah …" Ximen Ningning exclaimed and said in disbelief, "How did you do it?
You only have an ordinary steel sword. Not only did you kill the Fiery Demon Wolf, but you also killed the Wind Shadow Demon Snake?
The Wind Snake is very powerful. Even five five-star Novice Martial Artists would not be able to kill it. Instead, they would be killed by it. "
"Yeah, that beast is very powerful." Yang Dingtian then told Ningning the process of killing the Wind Snake.
Ximen Ningning's face turned pale. She said, "You're really amazing. You know how to use the Enchanted Orchid to kill the Wind Snake."
Hearing her praise, Yang Dingtian suddenly felt embarrassed. He quickly changed the topic and asked, "By the way, why did the people from the Sea of Hades come to see Yanyan?"
"It's a long story. Let's go back and heal first. I'll tell you later," Ningning said. She then patted Floating Ray's back and said, "Yao Yao, let's go back."
Floating Ray screeched and spread its wings, flying in the direction of Cloud Sky City. Even though it was carrying two people, it was still fast, steady, and light.

In the small building, Yang Dingtian was lying in a wooden barrel of medicinal soup. His upper body was above the water, and his wounds were so deep that his bones could be seen.
"Why didn't you take the elixir?"
Ximen Ningning scolded in a low voice. She then poured the milky white medicinal liquid on her hand and gently rubbed Yang Dingtian's wounds.
Yang Dingtian wasn't a tough guy. He was in so much pain that his body twitched. He grinned and said, "At first, I couldn't bear to take it. Later, I didn't have time to take it. I told you not to give me elixirs that are too good."
"How can you be like this?" Ximen Ningning whispered. Even though she was scolding him, her voice was still soft.
Wherever her small hand touched, the wounds would heat up. The medicinal liquid seeped into the wounds. The bloody wounds were originally open, but after the medicine, they automatically closed up, leaving only deep red marks. It was really a mysterious elixir.
"By the way, I have a gift for you." Yang Dingtian thought of the Enchanted Orchid and immediately stood up from the barrel.
"Ah, don't stand up." Ximen Ningning whispered, "Your pants have been melted by the medicinal liquid."
Yang Dingtian quickly sat back down. He used too much force, and the medicinal liquid directly splashed on the corner of Ximen Ningning's mouth.
"I, I'm sorry." Yang Dingtian instinctively reached out to wipe the medicinal liquid from the corner of Ningning's mouth.
Ximen Ningning's face suddenly turned red. She whispered, "No, it's nothing."
Then she went to the outer room, took clothes and a towel, and put it on Yang Dingtian's hand. Then she turned around and said, "Okay, you can come out now."
Yang Dingtian came out of the barrel with a red face and wiped his body with a towel. Ximen Ningning was standing not far away. Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room was very awkward.
Yang Dingtian put on his clothes. However, his wounds had just been smeared with medicine, so his shirt had to be open.
Yang Dingtian took out his package, took out the Enchanted Orchid, and said, "I picked it from the Red Wilderness today. Here you are!"
"Enchanted Orchid!"
Ximen Ningning's beautiful eyes lit up, and she was pleasantly surprised. She said, "This flower is very rare. You actually picked it."
"It's just a flower. Compared to what you gave me, it's completely insignificant," Yang Dingtian said.
Hearing Yang Dingtian's words, Ximen Ningning's surprised expression suddenly froze. She took the Enchanted Orchid and said softly, "Thank you!"
Yang Dingtian could see that she was unhappy.
"Did I say something wrong?" Yang Dingtian asked.
Ximen Ningning opened her small mouth and said, "This is very dangerous. Don't do this in the future.
Also, I don't want you to feel that you owe me anything, okay? "
Yang Dingtian was slightly stunned, and then nodded.
Then, the two of them sat in awkward silence again.
He really wanted to ask Ningning why she was so good to him. There was no reason, but after thinking about it, he still didn't ask.
"Sister Ningning, you asked me to return to Cloud Sky City in such a hurry. You said that someone from the Netherworld Sea came to see Yanyan. What's wrong with that?" Yang Dingtian asked, "Yanyan is free to see whoever she wants."
"Yanyan meeting the person from the Netherworld Sea is of course fine, but Yanyan wants to go with that person. She wants to go with him to the Netherworld Sea." Ningning said, "I can't persuade her at all, so I can only ask you to come back and persuade her."
"What?" Yang Dingtian was anxious and said, "Why does she want to go with that person to the Netherworld Sea?
Who is that person?
Why does she want to go with him to the Netherworld Sea? "
"His name is Song Yu, a disciple of the Netherworld Sea. Yanyan wants to go with him to the Netherworld Sea to treat her Xuan Meridians." Ximen Ningning said, "This matter is very complicated. Listen to me slowly."
The Netherworld Sea was one of the most mysterious places in the world.
It was both good and evil. In the eyes of the world, there was only one impression, and that was that the Netherworld Sea was almost omnipotent.
Some people might dare to offend people from the Three Sects and Nine Clans, but they definitely wouldn't dare to offend people from the Netherworld Sea.
Because it was omnipotent, even the dead could be brought back to life.
It could also make an incomparably strong person die without leaving a trace.
Five years ago, Yanyan had a huge accident. Since then, her Xuan Meridians had been destroyed. All these years, her cultivation had been constantly regressing. After two to three years, she didn't have any Xuan Qi and was as weak as an ordinary person.
If there was any power in the world that could heal Yanyan's damaged Xuan Meridians, it could only be the Netherworld Sea.
So, in the world, there might be people who dared to offend people from the Three Sects and Nine Clans, but absolutely no one dared to offend the Netherworld Sea.
Since the Netherworld Sea was so powerful and miraculous, then everyone in the world would have rushed over like a flock of ducks. Those who should have died could be revived.
However, no one in the world knew where the Netherworld Sea was.
Moreover, the Netherworld Sea was absolutely cold and heartless.
Unless it was given a huge benefit, it would definitely not lend a helping hand.
Therefore, the Netherworld Sea's Song Yu taking the initiative to appear in Cloud Sky City was really a puzzling matter.
Yang Dingtian was silent for a moment, then said, "If the Netherworld Sea can heal Yanyan's injuries, then that would be for the best.
Yanyan following Song Yu to the Netherworld Sea isn't a big deal. This is a good thing. "
"Little Tian, there's a very famous saying. That is, if you owe the Netherworld Sea a debt, you won't be able to repay it even in ten lifetimes."
Ximen Ningning said, "I don't know why Song Yu would take the initiative to come to Cloud Sky City to see Yanyan, but I know that if the Netherworld Sea wants to heal Yanyan, they would have to pay a huge price."
Yang Dingtian thought for a moment, then said, "If they can heal Yanyan, then even if they have to pay a huge price, it will be worth it."
Ningning shook her head and said, "You don't understand. The price that the Netherworld Sea offers is something that almost no one in the world can afford.
Moreover, I am an alchemist myself. I am very clear about Yanyan's Xuan Veins. I really can't find any hope of healing her. I don't believe that the Netherworld Sea can heal Yanyan. "
"Is that Song Yu still in Cloud Sky City?
Where does he live? "Yang Dingtian asked.
"He lives in the Heavenly Guest Pavilion," Ningning said.
"Big Sister Ningning, give me a set of clothes. I will go see him now. I will ask him if he can really heal Yanyan. If he can, what is the price?" Yang Dingtian asked.
Ningning walked to the cabinet and took out Yang Dingtian's robe, which was sewn by him.
"Big Sister Ningning …" At this moment, a delicate voice came from outside.
Instantly, Yang Dingtian and Ningning's expressions changed because this was Yanyan's voice.
Ximen Ningning's little face instantly turned pale. She whispered anxiously, "Little Tian, quickly hide.
Don't let Yanyan see you here. Moreover, moreover, you look like this … "
Yang Dingtian looked down. He was wearing loose pajamas that were still open. At this moment, he was alone with Ximen Ningning in a room.
If someone saw him like this, it would be difficult not to misunderstand. If he was caught, he would not be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Outside, Ximen Yanyan's footsteps were getting closer and closer. Ximen Ningning anxiously looked around for a place to hide.
Her room was too simple, so she couldn't even find a place to hide.
"Right, here." Ningning opened a cabinet door and then pulled Yang Dingtian to hide inside.
Before she could close the cabinet door, the beautiful Yanyan walked in.
"Big Sister, what are you doing? I kept calling you but you didn't respond." Yanyan looked at Ximen Ningning in confusion.
