When I woke up, I was surrounded by a group of people. Besides my parents, Liu Jie and the others were also there, looking at me anxiously.
"Wow! What did I just say? Big Brother Xiao Zhuang is a good man. Heaven helps him. You didn't believe me!" Little Cherry was overjoyed when she saw me open my eyes.
For a moment, the room was filled with a joyous atmosphere. After talking for a while, I found out that I had been unconscious for seven days and seven nights. During this time, many things had happened. Although I had captured Old Sun and the others as I wished, the mysterious black-cloaked person had escaped.
Master Qingyun and the others were annoyed. They knew that the mysterious black-cloaked person wasn't simple. If they hadn't been affected by the Blood Spirit Bead, they would have had a high chance of winning. After being restricted, they could only reluctantly deal with him.
Since the mysterious black-cloaked person had escaped, they could only use Old Sun as a clue. After a round of questioning, Old Sun told them that the mysterious black-cloaked person was the descendant of the Dark Lord and had mastered a secret technique that had been lost for a long time. As a member of the Demon Path, his position wasn't lower than the Blood Demon's. They hit it off immediately, resulting in the battle on Mount Hua.
Just as I had guessed, when Old Sun had read my fortune, he had already sensed the clue in my body, which was the Blood Demon's remnant consciousness. The reason why he wanted to scheme against me was because Old Sun had experienced the extermination of his family. Due to his straightforward personality, he had said some things that he shouldn't have said, causing the hatred of all the factions in the martial arts world. However, he had endured it until I appeared, giving Old Sun hope for revenge. Moreover, the Blood Demon had a telepathic communication with him. At that time, my power was limited and I couldn't feel it at all. Naturally, I was kept in the dark.
Old Sun wanted to borrow the Blood Demon's power to take revenge and destroy the entire martial arts world. However, he didn't get what he wanted because I was the biggest variable in his plan. At first, the Blood Demon only wanted to 'fatten' me up. After all, I had the Pure Yang bloodline and was the best sacrifice to awaken the Blood Moon Sovereign. However, he didn't expect that my growth speed would be so terrifying.
Blood Demon had no choice but to change his original plan after being severely injured not too long ago. He had no choice but to go to the mysterious place where the Blood Moon Sovereign was and bring his coffin. Together with the mysterious black-robed man, they set up the most powerful array formation in the Diabolism.
Although it couldn't be said to be foolproof, it was at least in the bag. However, it still ended in failure.
Without a doubt, I had become the number one hero, but I had also paid a heavy price for it. My pure Yang blood essence had been exhausted, and I could barely feel the existence of my bloodline. If it weren't for the Yi Jin Jing, which had given me a solid foundation, I would have most likely died.
This feeling of surviving a calamity made me heave a long sigh of relief. Looking at the smiling faces of my loved ones and relatives, my heart was filled with emotions. If I had been beheaded, they wouldn't have had a good ending either.
The only regret was that the mysterious black-robed man had escaped. This was definitely a huge hidden danger …
During the period when I was unconscious, sister-in-law and the rest could be said to be inseparable from taking care of me. Their relationship with my parents had also become more harmonious. Actually, in the beginning, my parents were a little uncomfortable or dissatisfied. However, after seeing sister-in-law's sincere feelings for me, they let go of that layer of ill feelings. However, as they were still in their old ways, they didn't forget to set three rules with sister-in-law.
She couldn't bully Liu Jie and the rest. She wasn't allowed to go to my hometown. Also, she shouldn't expect to have any official status. Although there were restrictions, sister-in-law still agreed readily. In the past, she didn't even dare to dream that she could obtain my parents' approval. Even if my parents didn't pressure her, she wouldn't go to my hometown. To put it bluntly, she was just giving my parents a way out. Since sister-in-law was so smart, she naturally took advantage of the situation.
Just a moment ago, the room was stifling and lifeless. When I woke up, it was instantly filled with joy and laughter.
"By the way, Brother Xiao Feng, there's another person who has been coming to see you these few days." Liu Jie took out her phone and looked at it. Then, she suddenly said softly.
"Who is it?" I looked puzzled.
She raised her phone and showed it to me. To my surprise, Hsieh Shih-chi had sent her a WeChat message. "Xiao Jie, can I go over now?"
It turned out that during the few days I was unconscious, Hsieh Shih-chi had been coming to see me every day. However, in order to avoid any misunderstandings, she always took advantage of the time when my parents weren't around. Every time, she would leave after a short while.
According to normal times, my parents should have gone to eat now. However, today's situation was special. Liu Jie looked at me playfully.
"Cough, cough." I coughed and immediately attracted her attention.
"Ah Zhuang, what's wrong?" My mother asked with concern.
"Father, Mother, I want to rest for a while. You can go and eat first. I'm fine now. You don't have to keep watching over me." I shook my head.
They couldn't dissuade me. Not long after, they left one after another. Liu Jie winked at me. "Brother Xiao Feng, it's time for you to shine!"
"Uh …" I was slightly embarrassed. Actually, I had promised them that I would bring Hsieh Shih-chi back with me. However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Due to some conflicts, Hsieh Shih-chi chose to go overseas for a vacation to settle down for a while. Out of respect for her, I didn't ask her to stay. The relationship that seemed to be drifting apart gradually warmed up again after my life was in danger …
