“ Ling Kui, it's me, Xiao Nan! What's wrong? Don't you remember me?” Li Xiaonan exclaimed anxiously.
“I... my head hurts so much...” The long whip fell to the ground as Ling Kui cradled her head in her hands, looking utterly distressed.
“Ling'er! What happened to you?”
The commotion drew Bai Luo and Spirit Weapon over. Seeing his disciple crouched on the ground, Bai Luo rushed forward to inquire.
“It hurts... it really hurts...”
Bai Luo narrowed his eyes, glaring fiercely at Li Xiaonan, but the latter seemed completely oblivious to him. He quickly embraced Ling Kui, trying to comfort her. “It's okay! Don't be afraid, I'm here!”
With a swift motion, he struck Ling Kui on the neck, knocking her unconscious.
“Kid, what did you do to my disciple?” Bai Luo lunged at Li Xiaonan with an outstretched hand.
Li Xiaonan picked up Ling Kui in a protective manner, leaving only his back visible to her.
“Bai Luo, calm down!” Spirit Weapon intervened, blocking her path. “Ling'er is in this state, and Xiao Nan is more anxious than anyone. Now is the time to figure out how to solve the problem, not to fight among ourselves!”
Taking a deep breath, Bai Luo composed himself and replied coldly, “If anything happens to Ling'er, I will make sure he pays dearly!”
The group followed Li Xiaonan into the bedroom. He carefully laid Ling Kui on the bed, his gaze lingering on her for even a moment longer. Turning to Spirit Weapon, he asked, “Father-in-law, can you check on her? What’s wrong with Ling'er?”
Nodding in agreement, Spirit Weapon joined Bai Luo in examining Ling Kui, but they found nothing conclusive.
“Hmm...” A soft moan escaped from Ling Kui, who seemed to be regaining consciousness. Her dragon lineage was indeed formidable; she had recovered quickly after being knocked out.
Slowly opening her eyes, confusion filled her gaze as she softly asked, “Where am I? Who are you all?”
“Ling'er, I am your master! Don't you remember?” Bai Luo said nervously.
Ling Kui stared at Bai Luo, silent for a moment, then shook her head.
“Ling'er, I am your father. Do you remember me?” Spirit Weapon interjected.
She still slowly shook her head.
The others were about to ask when Li Xiaonan raised his hand to stop them. His expression was cold as he said softly, “Do you remember your name? Do you know Fei Ji?”
“I... don’t remember... Who is Fei Ji?” Ling Kui looked at Li Xiaonan in confusion and added, “Why are you so fierce? I... I’m so scared...”
Li Xiaonan's expression softened. He tried to pull the corners of his mouth up into a smile, but it looked more like a grimace than a grin. “Don’t be afraid, Ling'er. I won’t hurt you.” He gently took Ling Kui's hand and said softly, “Your name is Ling Kui, and I am Li Xiaonan. You are my wife, and I am your husband. Look!”
Ling Kui wanted to pull her hand away, but seeing the heat and sincerity in his gaze, she glanced down at their hands.
A long fingered hand held her delicate one, and they shared one significant similarity: both wore a golden ring on their Nameless fingers.
Li Xiaonan gently stroked the ring and said, “These matching rings are unique in the Starry Illusion Continent. I forged them myself. Do you remember that year when we first met in Dragon Valley...”
It seemed he had opened a floodgate of memories, recounting every detail from their past. The girls behind him sighed softly, feeling a pang of sadness. But knowing that Ling Kui was experiencing amnesia again, they understood it wasn’t the right time to feel jealous. They shook their heads helplessly and left the room.
“Bai Luo, let’s go too,” Spirit Weapon said with a frown.
Bai Luo shook his head. “I won’t leave; I want to stay with Ling'er!”
“Sigh…” Spirit Weapon sighed lightly as he stepped out of the door, only to find that the night had deepened outside. Inside, Li Xiaonan was still animatedly recounting their experiences—how could such a rich history be summed up in just one day?
Ling Kui quietly listened throughout, her expression neutral, revealing no joy or sorrow. She slowly rose to get out of bed.
Li Xiaonan nervously asked, "Ling'er, what's wrong?"
"I... I want some water."
"Okay! I'll get you some." Li Xiaonan hurriedly stood up to pour water at the table but tripped over the long hem of his garment and fell awkwardly.
"Pfft!" Ling Kui covered her mouth and laughed out loud.
Li Xiaonan looked up with a silly grin and said, "You finally smiled." He then poured a cup of tea and walked back to the bedside.
"Thank you," Ling Kui said, reaching out to take it.
But Li Xiaonan suddenly said, "Wait, it's too cold; it could be harmful." He moved his fingers slightly, causing the tea in the cup to ripple gently, releasing a bit of steam.
"This should be just right, not too cold or too hot."
Ling Kui smiled as she accepted the cup and took a gentle sip.
Bai Luo couldn't help but furrow her brows. Li Xiaonan's earlier action demonstrated his excellent control over temperature, indicating that his skills in crafting were certainly impressive.
What amazed her even more was Li Xiaonan's attentiveness; perhaps her disciple had truly found a good husband.
"I want to go outside for a walk; it's stuffy in here," Ling Kui said softly while cradling the cup.
"Sure! Where do you want to go? To the mountains and rivers? The seas and great rivers? I'll take you there right now!"
"I... I just want to look around casually..."
"Alright!" With that, Li Xiaonan picked up a pair of shoes from the ground with one hand while holding Ling Kui's delicate foot with the other.
Ling Kui flinched back, stammering, "What... what are you doing?"
"Putting on your shoes!"
"I... I can do it myself."
"It's fine, you're my wife, so it's only right that I serve you."
Bai Luo's eyes had turned slightly red, filled with envy. In the Starry Illusion Continent, only women had ever spoken such words; there were no men like this. Li Xiaonan was truly exceptional.
With a flushed face, Ling Kui awkwardly allowed Li Xiaonan to put on her shoes. Noticing his skilled hands, it was clear this wasn't his first time. Her gaze towards him gradually became complex, filled with an indescribable confusion.
For the next three days, Li Xiaonan became Ling Kui's most devoted partner, while another loyal companion—Bai Luo—followed closely behind.
Li Xiaonan's meticulous care for Ling Kui had completely ignited Bai Luo's envy and jealousy!
The level of attentiveness could only be described as exaggerated.
" Ling Kui, what do you want? I'll get it for you!"
"I want to eat Spiritual Fruit." Without a second thought, Li Xiaonan took off with the Carefree Fan to buy some.
"What's wrong with Ling Kui?"
"I want... I want to take care of something..."
"Oh! I'll go for you!" As Li Xiaonan took a step forward, he awkwardly scratched his head and stepped back. "Um... I'll accompany you..."
Bai Luo shook his head helplessly and pulled Li Xiaonan back. " Ling Kui isn't a child; are you really worried she'll fall into a pit or something?"
Li Xiaonan began to poke his fingers together with a silly smile, trying to act cute. "I want to spend more time with her; maybe she'll remember me."
"What if she never remembers?"
"Then I'll make her fall in love with me again! We'll start over!"
"Sigh... fine, fine. When she regains her memory, I'll help her break free from her restraints!" Bai Luo shook his head and released Li Xiaonan's hand, only to have it grabbed again excitedly.
"Are you serious, Senior?"
"Would I lie to you?"
"That's great!" Li Xiaonan exclaimed, pulling Bai Luo into a hug. Although he didn't fully understand what the restraints were, he knew they were the reason he couldn't pursue Ling Kui.
Bai Luo was taken aback and almost struck him in the chest but ultimately held back, allowing Li Xiaonan to jump around happily while still holding her.
"Hmm! Shouldn't you check on your wife? She's been gone for a while," Bai Luo changed the subject.
"Oh! Right!" Li Xiaonan suddenly realized that his earlier actions were inappropriate. He clasped his hands together in a salute and headed toward the restroom.
One had to admit that the royal public restroom was quite splendid. Standing outside, Li Xiaonan called out, "Ling Kui, are you okay?"
"…"
He frowned slightly, muttering to himself: Could she have really fallen? No way…
"Ling Kui?"
"…" Still no response.
He scanned the restroom with his spiritual sense and found it completely empty. Remembering how Ling Kui had transformed into Fei Ji earlier, he suddenly clenched his fist and slapped his palm. "Oh no! I've been tricked! It must be Fei Ji!"
He moved slightly, splitting into eight clones, and along with his original self, nine Li Xiaonan suddenly appeared in front of the public restroom, looking like a group of perverted girls peeking at others in the bathroom.
At this moment, there were ten leaves on the Spirit Tree in his mind, allowing him to create ten clones. Adding the one meditating in Leisurely Clouds and Wild Cranes, he had just reached his limit.
"Go! Find Ling Kui!"
The eight nodded and scattered in all directions.
"Kid, what's wrong?" Bai Luo arrived just in time to see the eight Li Xiaonan flying out and asked.
Li Xiaonan's expression turned serious as he said, "This is a long story, Senior. Can we discuss it later?"
Bai Luo was a sensible person and nodded upon seeing his urgency.
Li Xiaonan shouted, "Meeting time! Meeting time!"
In an instant, over ten men and women gathered at the restroom entrance.
Qing Yu Year frowned and said, "Master, why don't we find another place for the meeting?"
"We don't have time. Listen to me..." He then shared his speculation about Ling Kui's amnesia and her transformation into Fei Ji with everyone.
"If that's the case, let's hurry and chase after her!" Li Yanrong suggested.
Li Xiaonan waved his hand and replied, "No need. My clones have already gone; they should have some leads soon. I have a feeling that this Fei Ji didn't appear by chance. She seems to have some purpose. The fact that she could enter Ling Kui's body without being detected by Lu Ni Chang likely means she is someone powerful from the Underworld."
His expression shifted as his brows furrowed sharply. "I found her! Strange? Why is she in the Underworld Demon Sea? Where's Smurf?"
"Master, did you call me?" A plump Silkworm Baby crawled out from Li Xiaonan's ear.
"Li Xiaonan" shouted, "Damn! When did you hide in my ear? Do you think you're the 'Golden Staff'?"
"I've always been here. What do you need, Master?"
"Li Xiaonan" took a deep breath. This wasn't the time to get tangled up in that. He asked, "What exactly is the 'Underworld Demon Sea'? What secrets does it hold?"
"The 'Demon Sea' is just the 'Demon Sea.' There's no secret," "Smurf" blinked with his tiny eyes, speaking earnestly.
"Damn it! Do you believe I can crush you right now?"
"Don't..." "Smurf," who was once "Black Sha," was now a powerless "Silkworm Baby." Well, to be precise, he was one of the foods for chickens. He twisted his body into a circle, trying to look as cute as possible.
"How... how could it be... magic?" "Li Xiaonan" was taken aback, loosening his grip. With a thud, "Smurf's" plump body fell to the ground.
While he was talking to himself and performing a one-man show, the other seven clones had already merged with "Li Xiaonan" from the "Underworld Demon Sea."
"Fei Ji! It really is you!"
"It's you!"
Just a few hours ago, she had been a gentle and amnesiac woman, but now she stood in the air with an icy expression, six "Twelve-Winged Demons" standing behind her.
