Yun Xi struggled to walk towards Long Xiang, his spiritual power almost completely depleted, his steps weak.
He crouched down to check on him, then took out a medical kit from his storage bag, applied medicine to Long Xiang’s wound and gave him a spirit pill to maintain his vitality.
“I am currently unable to treat his injuries.
We can only do this for now.
I will rest and treat him completely tomorrow.”

Zui You anxiously stroked Long Xiang’s hair, softly saying, “Is it very painful? Relax and look at my eyes.
Don’t think about anything else.”

Long Xiang hesitated, “Your sorcery doesn’t work on me.”

“Normally it may not work, but you are currently weakened.
Listen to me and completely relax.
Just look at my eyes, and the pain will fade away soon.”

Long Xiang took a deep breath, relaxed his body, and looked into Zui You’s mesmerizing eyes.
The tenderness in those eyes was so enchanting that it could intoxicate people.
Although he was not afraid of Zui You’s sorcery, he was somewhat wary.
He never dared to stare at Zui You’s eyes seriously, but now he focused his gaze, unable to describe how beautiful and charming those crimson eyes were.
They were as tranquil and mysterious as a pool of water, making people unknowingly drown in them.
As he continued to gaze, his eyes gradually lost focus and became empty.

Zui You softly spoke, “Good boy, it doesn’t hurt anymore.
You won’t feel any pain now, you’ll fall asleep soon, and when you’re asleep, you won’t feel any pain…”

Long Xiang slowly closed his eyes, his nose lightly twitching as he fell into a deep sleep.

Yun Xi was quite interested, “This technique is good, even better than an anesthetic.”

Zui You hushed him, “Quickly rest, little Xia’s injuries are not light and need timely treatment.”

“I know.”

Yun Xi treated the wounds of Ruan Qiansu, Yu Ren Shu, and Jiang Chao Ge separately.
Although their injuries were not too serious, they were all exhausted.
Tian Rong and Zheng Chen were so tired that they had returned to their weapons to recover, while Zui You insisted on staying out to take care of Long Xiang.

Zhi Xuan allowed Jiang Chao Ge to lie on his lap and looked at his body full of wounds.
Although most of them were only flesh wounds, it still hurt his eyes.
Jiang Chao Ge reached out and touched his face, laughing, “Don’t look like that, these injuries aren’t a big deal.”

Zhi Xuan said with a serious expression: “It’s not nothing.
You are my person.
Your hair, your blood, your skin, all belong to me.
No one can touch them! Those sinister beasts… When I recover my true body, I shall level Kunlun Mountains to the ground.”

Jiang Chao Ge couldn’t help but laugh, “We have so much to do when you recover your true form.”

“Of course, I also want to take you to see thousands of rivers and mountains.
I run very fast, so wherever you want to go, we can get there in a flash.”

Jiang Chao Ge’s smile grew wider as he thought about traveling the world with Zhi Xuan.
It should be a great experience.
Compared to Zhi Xuan, his life was short, like the snap of a finger.
As long as he didn’t die, it was obvious that Zhi Xuan would accompany him for the rest of his life.
He had never thought about living with someone for a lifetime before.
He was cool-headed and believed that people would eventually part ways in life.
He should not pour too much emotion into anyone, as it would only lead to trouble and trap him.
So, he remained alone, not planning to get married or have any descendants.
He only wanted to enjoy himself, spend his money, and live his life to the fullest, finishing it with a single kick, happily.
But now, he knew that he had a companion who might accompany him for the rest of his life, and that it was Zhi Xuan.
He didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with it, but felt that it was only natural.
Perhaps only the bond between him and Zhi Xuan, defined by fate, could give him a sense of safety, letting him know that this person would never leave, at least not before him.

Jiang Chao Ge looked up at the treetops through the mist and muttered, “Good, when you recover your true body, we can go wherever we want to go.
Who can stop us?”

Zhi Xuan lowered his head, ignoring the presence of others, and touched Jiang Chao Ge’s lips lightly with his own.
His long hair cascaded on both sides, covering their faces perfectly.
They were obviously engaged in something ambiguous, and Jiang Chao Ge poked at his forehead with his finger, pushing his head away, “Stop fooling around.”

“I’m not fooling around, I just want to kiss you,” Zhi Xuan said softly with genuine confusion, “I don’t know why, I always want to kiss you, anytime, anywhere.
Why is that?”

Although he spoke quietly, Jiang Chao Ge was still afraid that others would hear, so he quickly covered his mouth with his hand, “Alright, let’s discuss this privately.”

Zhi Xuan laughed, “I love discussing things privately.”

Jiang Chao Ge’s heart skipped a beat.

Yun Xi was the least injured among them, so he took the initiative to take responsibility for cooking.
However, everyone had no appetite due to their injuries, and after reluctantly eating something, they all went to rest.

Zhen Niao stayed around their temporary campsite.
If they weren’t exhausted, they would have searched for a safer place, but there was simply nowhere safe around.

Jiang Chao Ge woke up after sleeping for what seemed like an eternity.
He was uncertain whether it was day or night, and his entire body ached, making it almost impossible for him to get up.
Slowly opening his eyes, he realized that he was on top of Tian Rong, who was moving ahead slowly.

Zhi Xuan gently tapped his face and asked, “Are you awake?”

“How long have I been sleeping?” Jiang Chao Ge asked.

“Almost two days,” Zhi Xuan replied.

“Where are we going?” Jiang Chao Ge asked.

“We don’t know.
The compass has lost its efficacy since we entered the Kunlun Immortal Boundary, and we’re completely lost,” Yun Xi’s voice came from behind.

“And it’s highly likely that we’re just going around in circles,” Ruan Qiansu added.
She swung her battle axe, cutting off a tree branch as proof.
There was a fresh cut underneath indicating her mark that she had made a few hours ago.

Jiang Chao Ge frowned, “So, we’re really lost.”

“It’s even more complicated than that,” Yu Ren Shu spoke in a deep voice, “We’re trapped in the mist.
It’s rumored that the mist in the Kunlun Immortal Boundary has a hallucinogenic effect, looks like it’s true.”

Zhi Xuan said, “Yin Chuan seemed to have mentioned the mist in the Kunlun Immortal Boundary to me…but I can’t remember.”

Yun Xi held his head: “Oh, you’re going to make me die of anxiety.”

Zhi Xuan snorted and turned his head arrogantly.

Jiang Chao Ge said, “Since we’re just going around in circles, let’s not waste our spiritual energy.
Let’s take a break and let Zhi Xuan think about it carefully.”

The group had no choice but to stop and rest again.

Tian Rong said, “I feel like something has been following us all the time, but I can’t be sure.”

Zui You said, “I feel it too, but it might not be coming after us.
It could be a nearby beast.”

Zhi Xuan scratched his head and frowned, trying to remember.
He muttered to himself, “What did Yin Chuan say…what did he say…” Finally, he became angry, turning red, “He said too much nonsense.
How could I remember?”

Jiang Chao Ge wryly smiled, “Don’t be impatient.
Shall I ask you how this mist is produced?”

“It is said that it was originally a martial art of a great wizard in Kunlun Mountain.
To prevent outsiders from entering and disturbing their tribe, the mist became thicker and thicker over time, and lasted all year round.”

“Is there anything hallucinogenic in this mist?”

“It seems so, but I can’t remember.”

“How did you enter and exit the Kunlun Immortal Boundary?”

“I just ran around in a few steps.”

Jiang Chao Ge sighed, “Think about it again, don’t be impatient.”

Yun Xi walked around, observing the nearby trees, flowers, and grass with a thoughtful expression.

Suddenly, Tian Rong’s ears perked, “It’s back, that elusive spiritual power.”

“What is it?” Yu Ren Shu shouted, “If you have the ability, come out and don’t hide!”

The mountain forest was silent, with no response at all.

Yu Ren Shu messed up his hair irritably, “Damn it, damn it!”

Yun Xi said, “Stay calm.
This mist is likely to affect people’s emotions.
You’ve already been affected.”

Yu Ren Shu was stunned for a moment, and seemed to realize that his usual temper wasn’t as irritable.
He took a deep breath and calmed down.

The group fell into a long silence, seemingly at a loss of what to do.

Suddenly, a strange laughter echoed through the forest.
The laughter was eerie, hiding behind the thick fog, making it hair-raising!

Jiang Chao Ge shouted, “Who’s there? Come out!”

The laughter didn’t answer, only chuckled for a moment before suddenly disappearing, as if it had never appeared.

Ruan Qiansu said uneasily, “Was it just our hallucination?”

The group was unable to answer the question.
The laughter came and went without a trace, as if it was really just a hallucination.

After a while, the laughter sounded again.
This time, it was no longer hiding in the thick mist, but seemed to be right behind them, laughing in their ears, making their hair stand on end!

Yu Ren Shu jumped up from the ground and pulled out his Tian Rong spirit mace, roaring, “Who’s there! Who is it!” After shouting a few times without anyone responding, he couldn’t restrain himself and rushed towards the thick mist.

Long Xiang wanted to jump up from the ground to stop him, but it pulled at his wound, causing him to grimace in pain.

Tian Rong leaped up and used a claw to pin Yu Ren Shu to the ground.
He then growled loudly into Yu Ren Shu’s ear, causing his face to suddenly change and his eyes to clear up a bit.
Tian Rong said, “You have consumed too much spiritual power, and your body is weak and susceptible to illusions.
Let me return to my weapon.”

Yu Renshu shook his head after rubbing his sore head with some force.
He hugged his neck and stood up before saying calmly, “Turn into human form.”

Tian Rong immediately took human form.

Yu Renshu pinched his shoulder and said, “Just stay by my side.”

Tian Rong nodded.

Yu Ren Shu rubbed his aching head.
He had consumed the most during the battle and was inevitably exhausted.
Under the influence, he finally blocked his ears and resisted the occasional laughing sound, which was like a ghost appearing.

The laughter appeared and disappeared repeatedly, gradually driving not only Yu Ren Shu, but also the others to become restless, anxious and fearful.
They felt as if they were being watched by eyes in the mist, and as if there were enemies lurking around them, ready to attack and kill them at any moment.

At this time, only a few strange beasts were not affected by the mist, but they could not stop their own spirit users from falling into the trap of illusion step by step.

Zhi Xuan watched as Jiang Chao Ge’s face was covered with sweat, his pupils dilated and as he constantly fell into illusions, only to be awakened by himself.
This repeated mental torture almost exhausted him.

Zhi Xuan was extremely anxious and tried to recall everything Yin Chuan had told him about the Kunlun Immortal Boundary.
He used to think Yin Chuan was too long-winded so had never listened to him seriously.
But now, Zhi Xuan regretted it.
