Chapter 1508: Counterattack, Begin! (4)
The battlefront was slowly advancing toward Sun Never Sets. Shen Yanxiao stayed in Sun Never Sets. Every day, other than to prepare for war, she spent all her time absorbing the dark aura.
Ever since Xiu fell into a deep sleep that day, Shen Yanxiao had not received any response from him. It was as if he had sunk into the depths of her heart lake, where he could neither hear nor see her.
This was the first time Shen Yanxiao had broken contact with Xiu ever since she was reborn.
She was not used to this feeling.
Shen Yanxiao sat on the bed with her legs crossed as she tried her best to absorb the dark elements in the air. Vermilion Bird quietly sat on one side with Little Phoenix and Mini Dragon, not daring to disturb Shen Yanxiao.
Taotie obediently laid on the table and stuffed food into his mouth, but he was extremely careful not to make any sound.
As Shen Yanxiao’s contracted magical beast, Taotie and Vermilion Bird could clearly sense that ever since she returned from the Moon God Continent, there seemed to be a trace of uneasiness lingering in her heart. The existence of this emotion was all because of a certain soul that had fallen into a deep sleep.
While Shen Yanxiao was absorbing the dark elements, her consciousness had also sunk into her heart lake.
In the dim heart lake, she saw Xiu.
Unlike in the past, Xiu did not stand on the heart lake to observe her arrival.
He seemed to have fallen asleep as he floated in mid-air. At that moment, his eyes were tightly shut and balls of grey mist were surrounding him as they entered his body bit by bit.
Xiu’s weakness made his body turn illusory.
Shen Yanxiao looked at Xiu and unconsciously felt her nose turning sour.
She quietly walked over and grabbed Xiu’s left hand.
“I will get through this. I will wait for you to wake up, but you must wake up soon.” Shen Yanxiao wanted to hold Xiu’s hand tightly, but she was afraid that she would injure his weak soul if she used too much strength.
When it rains, it pours. Shen Yanxiao was strong in front of others, but only she knew that it was a matter of life and death.
Xiu was in a deep sleep, which meant that she would lose her most important trump card.
Along the way, she had arranged a lot of harassment for the four-nation alliance, just to consume more of their forces.
Even so, the disparity between the two was still huge.
That was the most difficult problem Shen Yanxiao had ever encountered.
“In the past, with you here, I would always like to ask you all the crucial questions. Now that you are asleep, I can only deal with the four-nation alliance myself. I wonder if you will be satisfied with my current actions after you wake up.” Shen Yanxiao seemed to be talking to Xiu, but also to herself.
There was so much external pressure on her, and she could only feel a moment of tranquility and peafe when she was by Xiu’s side.
Shen Yanxiao quietly looked at Xiu as if he was still awake.
When Xiu was around, she could never sense her dependence on him. However, once he fell asleep, she realized how disappointed she was when she subconsciously asked a question in her heart without getting any response.
Habit was a terrifying thing. After Shen Yanxiao reincarnated, she had become accustomed to Xiu’s existence.
No matter how seldom their conversations were, Shen Yanxiao was well aware that he was there, whether Xiu spoke or not.
In her heart.
