Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Looking at Qin Yi nestled in his arms like a docile bird, how could Chen Tian not be happy? He gently caressed Qin Yi's fragrant shoulders, savoring this rare moment of tranquility.

After quite a while, Qin Yi finally broke free from this blissful and wonderful feeling. As if she had thought of something, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Chen Tian with her bright, watery eyes, asking, "By the way, you said you were going to do something else. What is it?"

After calming down, Qin Yi finally noticed the ambiguity in Chen Tian's words earlier, so she couldn't help but ask him.

However, upon hearing this, Chen Tian's smiling face instantly turned gloomy. A murderous intent, colder than ice and snow, instantly permeated the air, causing the flowers in the garden to tremble violently.

But before long, this murderous intent returned to Chen Tian's body. He sighed deeply and said with a wry smile, "You should remember Xiao Long, whom I once told you about, right?"

"Xiao Long?" Hearing Chen Tian suddenly mention this name, Qin Yi was first stunned, then while reminiscing, she softly said, "I remember, you once told me that Xiao Long had been with you since childhood, as close as brothers. You even joined the Immortal Feather Sect together, but..."

Speaking up to here, Qin Yi completely remembered. Her body shook, and she hurriedly left Chen Tian's embrace, a trace of sadness appearing on her face.

Qin Yi remembered that Chen Tian had said that Xiao Long was killed by Lin Chen's sword in order to save him.

Seeing that Qin Yi did not continue speaking, Chen Tian sighed softly. He naturally knew that this woman was deliberately not saying it to avoid hurting him.

"Alright, you don't need to worry. The reason I brought up Xiao Long is because I want to tell you everything." Chen Tian's face was extremely serious as he stared at Qin Yi and said, "Actually, Xiao Long is not completely dead. There is still hope for him to come back to life!"

"You said Xiao Long can still live?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Qin Yi was shocked and said in disbelief, "How is this possible?"

"This all started with Han Wuming." Chen Tian said expressionlessly, a trace of reminiscence in his eyes, as he slowly recounted, "Xiao Long did die under Lin Chen's sword to save me, but due to Han Wuming's sudden appearance, he used a secret technique to seal his body and remnant soul. He also told me that once I cultivated to the凝海境 (Níng Hǎi Jìng - Core Formation Realm), I would have a chance to save Xiao Long."

"What? Are you saying Xiao Long's body was stolen?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, the expression on Qin Yi's face changed from joy to shock, and she said in horror, "Do you know who stole it?"

"I have no idea!" Chen Tian smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "I searched everywhere, but ultimately found nothing, as if Xiao Long's body was not on this Qian Yuan Continent."

"Such a strange thing?" Qin Yi was indeed frightened by Chen Tian's words. Her beautiful eyebrows were furrowed, and after pondering for a long time, she said, "Do you think something will happen to Xiao Long? If his body is damaged, wouldn't he be unable to be resurrected?"

"I don't think that's possible." Chen Tian shook his head and said, "I've thought about it. The reason those people stole Xiao Long's body is simply because they are after me. They want to use Xiao Long's body to threaten me, so they would never dare to harm Xiao Long before they achieve their goal."

"Phew... That's good." After hearing Chen Tian's explanation, Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart also felt much lighter. After meditating for a while, she asked Chen Tian, "What are you going to do next?"

"I don't know." Chen Tian shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Now the enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. I can't know who stole Xiao Long's body, and I don't know what their purpose is, so the only thing I can do now is wait."

As he said this, a feeling of helplessness instantly struck Chen Tian's heart.

To be honest, this was the most difficult problem Chen Tian had ever encountered. He didn't even have a clue, as if all he saw was darkness, and he couldn't find any light.

Looking at Chen Tian's lost appearance, Qin Yi's heart also became anxious.

However, Qin Yi was, after all, a clever woman. She knew that she must not add to Chen Tian's worries at this time, so she opened her mouth to comfort him, "Brother Chen, you don't need to worry. Just like you said, those people stole Xiao Long for you, so I believe that one day, these people hiding behind the scenes will take the initiative to show themselves."

Hearing these words, Chen Tian's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his gaze towards Qin Yi became even more gentle. What an understanding woman!

After nodding, Chen Tian finally squeezed out a smile and said, "That's right, now all I can do is wait for those people to take the initiative to come to me, but..."

"Brother Chen, you don't need to say it, I understand everything." Before Chen Tian could finish speaking, Qin Yi interjected, "Before Xiao Long is found, I won't make things difficult for you. You can do your things as much as you want. I can wait, I'll wait for you for a lifetime! If one lifetime is not enough, then I'll wait for you in the next life!"

Looking at the determined expression on this woman's face, a surge of tenderness suddenly welled up in Chen Tian's heart. Without saying a word, he pulled her into his arms.

"Cough cough... Cough cough..."

But at this moment, a series of coughs suddenly came from behind them.

Upon hearing this sound, Qin Yi's face flushed red again, and she hurriedly pushed Chen Tian away, shyly turning away.

Chen Tian also seemed a little embarrassed. After composing himself, he turned his head and saw that the little girl Su Yingxue was covering her mouth and snickering behind them.

"It seems like I came at the wrong time. Or should you continue, and I'll leave?" Looking at this awkward scene, Su Yingxue's eyes were full of teasing.

Qin Yi became even more娇羞 (jiāo xiū - bashful, shy) after hearing this. After stomping her feet, she immediately turned around and scolded, "What are you doing, you little girl? Tell me quickly, what are you doing here?"
