The Healer Demands Payment!

Chapter 136-137

Meng Qi blinked her eyes, looking at the jade slip in her hand with some disbelief. It was delicate and exquisite, and she had originally thought it had fallen in the Starfallen Sea, which made her a bit regretful because she didn’t know when she could get one again.

After all, Beyond The Heaven was…

Ji Wujiong glanced at the jade slip in her hand and raised the corner of his lips, asking, “Beyond The Heaven?”

“Yes,” Meng Qi nodded. She turned and walked towards her room. “I’m going to Beyond The Heaven.” After saying this, she closed the door behind her.

There were two rooms in the courtyard, one for each of them. After Meng Qi left, the black-robed young man didn’t return to his room. He remained standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, silently gazing at the closed door. His expression appeared quite serious, with deep and profound eyes, as if he were seriously contemplating something. The Apricot Forest, Grand Tournament, Lin Yan, Starfallen Sea… and now, Jingyuetian and Ten Absolutes Mountain!

Slowly clenching his hands, Ji Wujiong’s gaze flickered slightly. He exerted more and more force, and veins started to bulge on the back of his hand, his skin turning somewhat pale. Ji Wujiong was originally very handsome, and even the three scars on his face didn’t conceal his attractiveness. But now, those three scars seemed to deepen continuously, even distorting. It was as if three reptiles were crawling on his face, twisting and writhing horrendously.

Hah…

Ji Wujiong’s tense expression eventually relaxed, and he released his clenched fists, returning to his usual arrogant and prideful look. After slowly exhaling a breath, he turned to walk toward his room.

He had actually come this far…

Ji Wujiong lowered his head slightly and gazed at the palm of his own hand. A thin black line had appeared there. The black line extended from the veins on his wrist, but it didn’t look particularly frightening. After staring at it for a moment, he clasped his hands together, causing the black line to disappear beneath his skin.

With a creak, the door opened and then closed. The courtyard once again became quiet. Only the wind rustled through the flowers and trees, occasionally leaving behind a rustling sound.

…

Inside the room, Meng Qi sat in a chair, holding the jade slip in her hand. She closed her eyes and poured in a strand of aura. In the blink of an eye, the grand city, no longer unfamiliar, appeared before her. Meng Qi took a deep breath and hurried toward the city gates. It hadn’t been long since she was here last, but she felt a strange sense of nostalgia, mixed with some melancholy.

Meng Qi couldn’t help but look up at the highest floating island. The sky was filled with white clouds, the azure sky was crystal clear, and everything was exceptionally clean. She knew she couldn’t go to that floating island right now, so after a quick glance, she withdrew her gaze. She paused briefly and thought for a moment, eventually deciding not to head directly toward the Heaven And Earth Bookhall.

Although Beyond The Heaven City was vast, there were many teleportation arrays scattered everywhere. Cultivators were bustling along the streets, making it look similar to the cities in the Three Thousand Worlds. Meng Qi had always rushed in and out during her previous visits and hadn’t had the chance to explore in leisure. Seeing cultivators coming and going, even though she knew it had nothing to do with her, she couldn’t help but feel delighted.
