Chapter 170.2: A New World: the Mortal Heart World
At Seven-Colored Peak, Qi Jianjun held Qi Yuan's hand, eyes wide with curiosity. "So, this is Daddy's home?"
Qi Yuan felt a wave of calm wash over him due to the homecoming. "Mm."
Running wild in the outside world had its thrills, but home was the harbor of one's soul.
"The place looks really beautiful, it is perfect for seclusion," Qi Jianjun said.
Qi Yuan gave his daughter a side-eye. Was she really just saying it was remote? They stopped in front of the brick-and-tile house. Qi Yuan's gaze drifted toward the wooden cabin next door.
His expression turned odd. "Where's Junior Sister?"
Suddenly, his expression changed. A dense frost aura emanated from her cabin. He stepped inside, only for several talismans to flare into life, forming a protective formation to block him.
When cultivating, his junior sister often used talismans as guards around her. The power of these talismans nearly rivaled a Nascent Soul cultivator. In the Great Shang Kingdom, they counted as top-tier protective runes. They shattered the moment Qi Yuan's eyes swept over them.
He shifted and immediately saw Jiang Lingsu lying on the bed, clad in thin garments. A sheer veil covered her, revealing pale arms and a neck dusted with faint frost. Her brows were furrowed, clearly enduring some pain.
Qi Yuan's heart tightened. "Junior Sister?"
He had long known about her afflictions, which could only be treated by a Water Spirit Root Violet Palace cultivator. Unfortunately, even after founding the Blood-Clothed Alliance and gaining dominance over the Eastern Lands, he had yet to find one.
He reached out, grasping Jiang Lingsu's arm. Scorching energy surged through him. Qi Yuan used the Five Elements Essence to temper her body. Though it couldn't completely eradicate her illness, it could at least ease her suffering.
