Transcending the Nine Heavens

Chapter Seven, Part Four: Going Home

"Indeed, there are no injuries. He looks as if he is in a deep sleep..." Chu Feiling frowned. "Moreover, his vital energy is overflowing and chaotic, almost like a tangled mess, yet his internal condition seems entirely void of cultivation..."

Yang Ruolan worriedly asked, "What could be the reason for this?"

Chu Feiling secretly grimaced, thinking to himself, if I knew the reason… it would be great…

He forced a grin and said, "This is really peculiar…"

Little did the couple know, the situation Chu Yang was in was unprecedented since the inception of the Nine Heavens Continent! An absolute first of its kind!

It's not just the two of them; even several supremes present would be at a loss facing Chu Yang's current condition.

Inside Chu Yang's consciousness, he was doing his utmost to digest the sudden explosion of divine soul power and the heaven and earth spiritual energy that surged from the Sword Pattern.

His consciousness and soul would swell up one moment, then diminish, only to swell up again… This cycle continued endlessly without any break.

All of his divine soul, consciousness, and spirit were consumed in this process, leaving him with no strength to do anything else! It was impossible for him to wake up until everything stabilized…

His divine soul power resembled a precarious dam, with torrents of water overflowing, and he had to continuously patch it up, urgently repairing any breaches to prevent the defenses from collapsing.

If he let his guard down for even a moment, and a breach opened up that he couldn't repair in time, it would lead to the dam collapsing in an instant!

Should that happen, Chu Yang would likely become a complete fool…

Thus, Chu Yang had no idea whether he was still underwater or where he had drifted… Totally unconscious…

After toiling for what felt like an eternity, the couple was exhausted, looking at each other with despair.

"What should we do?" Yang Ruolan's eyes brimmed with tears. She was so frightened; after finally finding their son, he now lay in eternal sleep…

If that were the case, Yang Ruolan would absolutely break down!

"At this point, the only thing we can do is return to the family and make further plans." Chu Feiling's expression was heavy. "However, this boy seems to be fine. His breathing is steady, his complexion is rosy, and his heartbeat is strong. Perhaps a few days of sleep will be enough."

Yang Ruolan carefully checked their son's pulse and finally felt somewhat relieved. "I think so too; it resembles natural sleep. The vital passages are long and smooth, but how could he… be in such a deep sleep…"

"Perhaps he fell victim to some sort of plot in this regard… However, since it resembles sleep, even if he was ensnared, it wouldn't be anything particularly terrifying; at most, he could sleep for a few days and then be fine." Chu Feiling tried to comfort her.

After thinking for a long while, Yang Ruolan finally sighed in relief. "I hope you're right. If our son isn't as you say… Chu Feiling, you will have to pay the price for your careless words today!"

Chu Feiling's eyes widened in surprise.

I was trying to comfort you… How did this suddenly become my responsibility?

With a bitter face, he turned away and coughed, feeling utterly helpless. Son, please wake up soon… If you don’t, your mother… I can’t afford to offend her…

Yang Ruolan held her son, examining his face closely, looking satisfied. "Look, our son’s complexion is so delicate, so fair, even more beautiful than a young lady. No wonder so many extraordinary women are crazily in love with him."

This was indeed true; Chu Yang's body had undergone washing and marrow cleansing dozens of times thanks to the Nine Calamity Sword. If his skin were lacking, it would truly go against heavenly principle.

The more Yang Ruolan looked, the more satisfied she became, her heart swelling with joy. Finally, she said, "No matter what, it's just good to have our son back! Even if he is asleep, he is still my son returned. Feiling, holding my son feels… really wonderful! It's like holding the entire world. As for everything else, I feel like I lack nothing."
