129: Chapter 129 Mr. is Mine

However, her injuries were more severe.

Even though she had regained consciousness, she did not immediately crawl out of bed.

This former saintess of the Hehuan Sect, even after just recovering from grave injuries, still possessed an innate charm.

She lazily propped up her upper body, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin through the tears in her red dress, yet she paid it no mind, merely squinting her fox-like eyes.

She was observing the vastly different yet equally anxious expressions of Ye Jingjun and Cang Mingyue with great interest.

"Sister Jingjun, Little Sister Yue, it seems we have all survived."

"Which expert intervened? To be able to snatch us back from the claws of those monsters."

Cang Mingyue did not answer.

She had fallen unconscious a step earlier, so she knew no more information than Su Daji.

As for Ye Jingjun, she had already rushed out of the room at this moment.

Her entire heart and mind were tied to that back profile.

Was it him?

That figure standing on the snowy slope, making the ancient fierce beasts bow and submit.

That upright posture, that unique soul fluctuation.

It could not be wrong!

Even after endless years had passed and different worlds had been crossed, she would never misidentify him.

That person, after all, was the obsession of her Sword Heart.

Ye Jingjun, who had run out of the bedroom, soon found Zhuge Jinyu by the stone table in the small courtyard.

She had already shed that cold enforcement bodysuit and changed back into her usual attire.

It was still a plain white dress, with ink-black hair like a waterfall, her stunning face as cold as snow.

"You are awake."

Her voice was flat, revealing no emotion at all.

"How does your body feel? Is there any place that feels uncomfortable?"

"Zhuge Jinyu."

Ye Jingjun spoke first, her tone urgent, even carrying a trace of rare loss of composure.

"Was it you who saved us?"

"On the Snowy Plateau, besides us and those monsters, did you see anyone else?"

"A young male martial artist, roughly a Seventh-Rank Martial Artist, wearing modern casual clothes."

She paused, realizing that her anxiety was a bit too obvious.

After thinking for a moment, she found a reason for her anxiety.

"If I remember correctly, it should have been that young martial artist who saved the three of us."

"I want to find him to properly express my gratitude."

Zhuge Jinyu's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words "Seventh-Rank Martial Artist" and "modern casual clothes."

What was this Ye Jingjun trying to do, looking for "Xiao Yan"?

The two of them had known each other for so many years.

Throughout the entire Great Xia, who didn't know that Ye Jingjun was an eternal old maid?

Her newlywed husband had died of illness on the day of their grand wedding before they could even consummate the marriage.

For so many years, she had been waiting for him to return.

Not to mention other men, even towards those of the same sex, she was usually cold and indifferent.

Why was it that now, after suffering an injury, she had suddenly become interested in "Xiao Yan"?

Something was wrong.

She remained calm on the surface, even slightly furrowing her brows to reveal a perfectly measured trace of confusion.

"A young Seventh-Rank Martial Artist?"

"Hall Master Ye is joking."

"The three of you were not opponents of those monsters; how could a young Seventh-Rank Martial Artist... possibly still be alive after experiencing all of that?"

"When I arrived with the headquarters after receiving the distress signal, there were only three people severely injured and unconscious at the scene, along with a group of ancient fierce beasts that had been temporarily suppressed but had not left."

"If I hadn't promptly retrieved and taken the three of you away, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"And I did not see any other martial artists."

Her tone was firm and natural, as if she were stating a fact that could not be simpler.

However, the fingers in her sleeves curled almost imperceptibly.

I'm sorry, Jingjun.

She silently recited in her heart.

But Sir... is mine.

She absolutely could not let Sir go to anyone else.

At the very least, before confirming who he really was, I cannot let anyone, especially you, disturb him.

Furthermore, if "Xiao Yan" really was the reincarnation of her Sir, then it was absolutely impossible for him to be the person Ye Jingjun was looking for.

After all, Sir had died right before her own eyes back then; how could he have had the spare energy to run from Great Qian to Great Ning and cause trouble again?

In reality, before the era of spiritual energy recovery on Blue Star, Great Ning and Great Qian were just two parallel worlds that did not connect.

Ye Jingjun's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, scrutinizing Zhuge Jinyu.

As fellow Transcendent Heroic Spirits and Hall Masters, she knew Zhuge Jinyu too well.

This helmsman of the West China region had been a proper Prime Minister in her day.

And one at the level of the "Nine-Thousand-Year-Old" eunuch.

Usually, this woman was not like them, who rose to power by fighting.

She was always adept at scheming, with a mind as deep as an ancient well, and her emotions were rarely revealed.

However, just a moment ago, she seemed to have captured a flash of emotion deep within the other person's eyes.

Something was wrong!

She had at least an 80% chance that she was lying.

"No one else?"

Ye Jingjun repeated, her tone clearly disbelieving.

"Hall Master zhuge, although I was severely injured and near death at the time, my spiritual perception was not completely sealed."

"Even if I saw it wrong, there was definitely someone else on the field besides you and me."

"At that time, I clearly perceived a familiar aura appearing; it was that very aura that intimidated the fierce beasts, allowing us to catch our breath for a moment."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to wait for you to arrive."

Her phoenix eyes stared fixedly at the Female Prime Minister in front of her.

But the other party was no pushover either.

Sensing that Ye Jingjun was observing her, she no longer revealed a single flaw.

"A familiar aura?"

"Hall Master Ye might have had a disordered spiritual perception due to severe injury, or it might have been a hallucination caused by the pressure of the fierce beasts."

"The energy field on the Snowy Plateau is chaotic, and it is common for perception deviations to occur."

"When I arrived, there were indeed only the three of you at the scene."

"I have already recorded this matter in the files. If Hall Master Ye does not believe me, you may review the action records at any time."

Action records?

She was the Hall Master of the Hall of Valor in the West China region and was responsible for this rescue operation.

The records that Ye Jingjun and Cang Mingyue could see were naturally the records that had been "refined" by her.

Ye Jingjun fell silent.

The other party really didn't show any more flaws.

Moreover, if Su Chen had really appeared, she would have no reason to hide it from her.

Zhuge Jinyu had her Sir, and she had her own husband.

Could it be.

Was it really her hallucination?

Was it a heart demon produced by an obsession that was too deep while near death?

No.

She shook her head violently.

For so many years, Su Chen's aura had long since taken root and sprouted in her memory.

The purpose was to ensure that if one day she could truly meet him in the sea of people, she would be able to recognize him at a glance.

The aura that day was too familiar and too similar.

She dared to swear that she absolutely had not misidentified him.

"I understand."

"Perhaps it was because my injuries were not healed, and my perception was wrong. Many thanks for Hall Master zhuge's grace of rescue."

She nodded slightly and stopped questioning.

However, she had already begun to calculate continuously in her heart.

Zhuge Jinyu, what are you hiding?

If there really was no such person, why are you in such a hurry to clear yourself?

With your temperament, regarding such a questionable matter, you should at least ask a few more questions or indicate that you would investigate.

To deny it so decisively is suspicious instead.

Fortunately, she also had her own means.

If someone really appeared at the rescue scene that day, it would not be difficult for her to investigate.
