Chapter 2535 Side Story 39: Senior?
?
Tuan Zi's eyes widened slightly in surprise, and her heart beat wildly. Zi Chen! Is he about to wake up?!
When the surrounding dozen or so young men and women saw this, they were also taken aback by the suppression and retreated respectively. As they did so, they stared at the ball of light in shock and fear.
Right on the heels of that, purplish-golden light overflowed in the ball of light!
The surrounding Heaven and Earth Force started crazily gathering here!
The pine trees swayed, and clouds gathered.
The next moment, the ball of light shattered and a stream of light flew out!
Right on the heels of that, a tall figure appeared in front of everyone!
In the beginning, it was just an apparition. But soon, the shattered ball of light actually transformed into specks of light and fused with the apparition.
A terrifying and powerful pressure descended!
A strange pattern appeared between that person's eyebrows and gradually condensed. It was like some kind of totem, or a vertical eye that was suffused with a rich purplish-gold color. Amidst its elegance, there was a hint of flirtatiousness.
His figure gradually solidified.
Tuan Zi widened her black grape-like eyes and stared at him without blinking.
That ball of light had A'Yue's strength. Once Zi Chen's soul woke up, it could help him condense his body again.
She thought that she had to wait for a long time, but she didn't expect it to be done so quickly!
The others present were also shocked by this sudden scene. They were speechless and watched nervously.
Finally, the last bit of broken light completely fused into his body. At this point, his soul recovered, and his body reformed!
He opened his eyes.
It was a man who looked to be 28 or 29 years old. He was handsome and cold, with a natural charm.
His black robe outlined his tall and slender figure. His eyes were cold, and his aura was outstanding.
The surrounding young men and women were dazed.
They long knew that the light ball that their young mistress lovingly protected every day contained a legendary three-eyed eagle's soul. That was also Goddess Yue's other legendary fiend.
An existence that could be chosen by Goddess Yue was naturally not simple, especially when they heard that this legendary three-eyed eagle had an extremely close relationship with the great phoenix dragon clan leader, Miao Zhen.
With such an identity and background, even the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan—which had always been high and mighty—didn't dare to underestimate him at all. Not to mention that their young mistress cared about this person the most.
It was suspected that she would wait hundreds or thousands of years for him and guard his soul every day. However, it hadn't taken that long—this person actually woke up today!
What surprised them even more was that this person… No matter if it were his strength, suppression or his magnificent appearance, he was actually so… outstanding.
Sensing the shocking aura, everyone's hearts immediately skipped a beat, and their attitudes became even more respectful and polite.
The few young girls' faces were still slightly red.
"Zi Chen!" Tuan Zi had been staring closely and waiting. Seeing that Zi Chen had really appeared in front of her unscathed again, the joy in her heart was difficult to suppress, and she yelled excitedly.
Zi Chen looked at the little girl not far away.
Her fair and soft face was filled with a bright smile. Her big watery eyes were curved, as if stars were shining in them.
It was exactly the same as what he remembered.
He lowered his body and reached out toward the little girl. "Tuan Zi, come over."
Tuan Zi screamed and hurriedly ran over, jumping into his arms.
She hugged his shoulders tightly and was so happy that she didn't know what to do. Her adorable face was also covered in a faint red color, like a soft peach. "Zi Chen! Zi Chen, You're finally awake! You don't know how long I've been waiting!"
As Tuan Zi spoke, she reached out, squeezed his shoulders, touched his collarbone, and patted his arm.
The touch under her palm was firm and real, with a tinge of warmth. It was completely different from the hard and cold ball of light she held every day.
This was Zi Chen!
This was a living Zi Chen!
Zi Chen was rendered rather helpless by her series of actions.
Her soft hand landed on his body, as if she were tickling him.
He grabbed her small hand and was about to make her behave when he saw that the eyes of the girl in his arms were red.
Zi Chen paused in his actions. The words in his throat suddenly got stuck, and he couldn't say them.
Tuan Zi's eyes were red, and her small mouth pouted as if she wanted to hold back her tears.
Zi Chen let go of her hand and patted her back. "Don't worry. I'm fine."
Although he had indeed suffered extremely serious injuries previously, and his soul had almost scattered, he was still safe and sound in the end.
"Wuwuwu… Wa!" Tuan Zi finally couldn't take it anymore, as she lay on his shoulders and cried loudly.
Her cries were loud, as if she was extremely aggrieved.
Zi Chen frowned, but he could only hug her tighter and slowly pat her back to help her calm down.
Tuan Zi clutched his clothes with both hands and cried uncontrollably.
Although on the surface, she looked as lively as before, as if there was no difference… only she knew how she survived these days and nights.
Zi Chen almost lost his life to help her.
Previously, Zi Chen had already saved her from danger several times. She had been thinking about it.
It wasn't easy for her to open her ninth meridian, but she still couldn't protect him well. If Zi Chen really died like this, she would feel terrible for the rest of her life. Hence, she waited day and night, hoping that Zi Chen could wake up early.
Luckily… Luckily, this day had finally come!
The stone in her heart had finally been lifted after all these days, and she relaxed a lot.
Leaning in Zi Chen's arms, feeling his aura and hearing his voice, she finally confirmed that he was back!
This feeling was indescribable.
Apart from A'Yue, the closest person to Tuan Zi was actually Zi Chen. Although she was never convinced of him in the past and challenged him to a one-on-one battle time and time again, in actual fact, they supported each other and were close to each other through life-and-death experiences.
She was actually quite dependent on Zi Chen.
Now, he was finally better!
Yi Ming and the others, who were watching, were also stunned.
Who would've thought that at that young age, she had already been reborn from the flames and opened her ninth meridian to help Goddess Yue snatch back Fantasy Divine Hall? However, the greatest pride of the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan was actually… a crybaby?
In the past, they only saw her as lively, proud, cute, and charming. Who had ever seen her so soft and pitiful, lying on someone and crying?
It was obvious that she cared and trusted this person very much.
Zi Chen sighed lightly, but he didn't say anything. He only hugged her and let her cry to her heart's content.
After a while, her sobbing gradually subsided.
After venting all the grievances and sorrow in her heart, Tuan Zi gradually returned to her senses. Realizing that her appearance was rather humiliating, her face turned red as she looked up at Zi Chen.
"Are you done crying?" Zi Chen looked at her and asked.
Tuan Zi touched his shirt that was wrinkled from her cries and softly said, "…Yes."
At this moment, a clear young man's voice suddenly sounded. "Senior Zi Chen, it's great that you can wake up. During this period of time, Tuan Zi has been guarding you day and night."
Upon hearing this, Zi Chen's glabella twitched.
