If I had known I wouldn't have saved you!

"Senior, you look much more energetic now than before!"

Lin Shiyi couldn't help but praise.

Old man Chi Yan was also stunned. He did not maintain his youth when he was young, which led to his old appearance now. Therefore, he never cared about his appearance. But after hearing what Lin Shiyi said, he felt a desire for youth in his heart.

Who doesn’t want to appear in front of everyone in a youthful manner?

At first, Old Man Chi Yan thought that his master and two senior brothers had died in the battle, so he became disheartened and trapped on the island. He had no attachment to the world, so his youth did not remain. But now it is different. He has left the island and welcomed back Fairy Yaoguang.

Ever since Fairy Yaoguang woke up and asked him why he looked so old, he began to regret it. However, since he had not maintained his youth when he was young, it would not be easy for him to regain his youth now.

But what he didn't expect was that this magic water could actually make him younger?

If Lin Shiyi hadn't reminded him, he would have thought it was an illusion.

"Are you really younger? Compared to before?"

Coming back to his senses, old man Chiyan asked hurriedly.

Lin Shiyi looked at his face carefully again, nodded and said affirmatively: "You look at least a few decades younger. Now you look like a 60-year-old. How about this, soak it a few more times and see."

Hearing this, Old Man Chi Yan was delighted. He sighed and said, "I never thought that I would have such an adventure in the Hunyuan Star Realm. If I could restore my youth, I would have some confidence when facing my master..."

Lin Shiyi suddenly had an idea and encouraged him, "Yes, senior! You should regain your youth. When Fairy Yaoguang sees you when you are young, she will naturally recall the days when you were master and disciple. This will be of great help to her state of mind!"

"Makes sense!"

Old Man Chi Yan's confidence suddenly increased. He was originally preparing to go back with a heavy heart, but after hearing what Lin Shiyi said, he immediately decided to go back and soak in the magic water again.

The two hit it off immediately and went up to the bathing building together, soaking in the bath for a whole hour.

Many monks would leave after soaking in the water for an hour. During this time, they would chat with Lin Shiyi and Old Man Chi Yan. When they talked about rejuvenation, the monks all recognized the efficacy of the magic water and said frankly that they also felt a lot younger.

Now that was good, old man Chi Yan simply stayed in the pool and refused to leave. However, Lin Shiyi didn't feel that the magic water had any effect on him. After soaking for a whole day, he left the bathing building.

When he had nothing to do, he would wander back and forth between the pavilions.

Today, the Demon Refining Palace and the Jade Maiden Pavilion are right next to each other, and the two factions' formations have been merged into one. Except for the Jade Maiden Hall and the Demon Refining Hall, which are two independent palaces, the other pavilions are not far away.

After asking the gatekeeper monk of Cangshen Pavilion, Lin Shiyi learned that the monks in the lower world were about to break through to the middle stage of the God Transformation Realm. They had been in seclusion for more than ten days some time ago. Only Old Man Chiyan and Fairy Yaoguang broke through earlier.

Of course Lin Shiyi knew that this was all the effect of the Qiankun Pill, and that Old Man Chiyan and Fairy Yaoguang had more experience and a better foundation, so they were able to break through one step ahead of others.

Later, he learned from Qin Yue and Li Ningshuang that Si Yunlan and Li Jiuxian were also in seclusion, saying that they were preparing for the war and had to improve themselves no matter what.

Thinking of the March deadline, Lin Shiyi felt a little depressed.

If Lu Qingyao and others cannot be rescued by then, what will happen if these companions encounter danger again?

To be honest, he was not sure of winning the fight with the Divine King Long Tianyou.

Since Long Tianyou dared to make such a bold statement and gave him three months to prepare, it means that the Temple of God must have something to rely on.

The Temple of the Gods has stood in the Hunyuan Star Realm for countless years, and no one can shake its powerful foundation.

What does Long Tianyou want to do?

If he wanted to destroy Lin Shiyi, he could have done it the last time he came, but this God King seemed to have other plans.

Unconsciously, Lin Shiyi flew to a rockery while thinking about things.

He landed on the rockery and was about to sit down to think about things when he caught sight of a woman.

The woman was standing not far away. She had a stunning face, but with a hint of sadness. Under the starry sky, her figure seemed even more frail.

When Lin Shiyi saw him, he quickly flew forward and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Senior Yaoguang."

Fairy Yaoguang looked over and saw that it was Lin Shiyi. She smiled and said, "No need to be polite, Shiyi, how is your retreat going?"

Lin Shiyi bowed respectfully and said: "I am ashamed that I have not been able to reach the peak of the late stage of the Spiritualization..."

Hearing this, Fairy Yaoguang nodded and said, "Things in the world are not always so smooth. You have done a good job. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't even have the chance to see this starry sky."

Lin Shiyi shook his head and sighed, "Senior, please don't say that. Actually... I have always wanted to apologize to you..."

"Apologize to me? Why?"

Fairy Yaoguang was stunned for a moment, then smiled calmly.

Lin Shiyi just felt a little guilty, but he had to say it.

So he lowered his head and said, "I didn't think carefully about helping you recover your soul. I don't know what you think. When you didn't recover, you were still living freely and carefree. But after you recovered, you were often tortured by the demons in your heart... I am really ashamed of causing you to suffer such hardships..."

After hearing his words, Fairy Yaoguang smiled and said, "Eleven, you don't have to feel ashamed. I will tell you my true thoughts..."

She raised her head and looked at the endless starry sky, and her smile gradually faded.

"At first, I did think about dispersing my soul completely, but I couldn't bear to do so. I couldn't bear to leave my sect, my disciples, and my own cultivation... I tried hard to convince myself that suffering is only temporary, and no matter how long it lasts, there will be light at the end of the tunnel, so I retained a trace of my soul. Facts have proved that my persistence is right. With this trace of soul, I can come to this step now, a cultivator who has reached the state of transformation... Haha, I didn't dare to think before that I could really become a cultivator who has reached the state of transformation..."

Fairy Yaoguang seemed very happy, but there was always an unspeakable sadness in her words. This little bit of sadness was enough to completely obscure her joy.

Lin Shiyi sighed and said, "Senior, you..."

Fairy Yaoguang interrupted with a smile: "Eleven, you are everyone's hope and someone who can do great things, so don't worry about me. I know how to handle my own affairs. Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for you at this critical moment."

Lin Shiyi always felt that there was something else behind Fairy Yaoguang's words, but he didn't dare to ask more and could only bow and agree.

The strong wind blew in the starry sky, making people feel cold.

After talking to Fairy Yaoguang for a few more words about the war, Lin Shiyi bowed and left.

He secretly pondered over the words of Fairy Yaoguang and came to a conclusion.

"Fairy, is she saying that even if she can't suppress her inner demons, it will be after the war is over?"
