Return of the Phoenix Lady

"Xing'er, wake up! Don't sleep anymore. It's so early in the morning. Don't be such a lazy pig. I'll go out with you today, okay?"

In a daze, Han Xing heard a gentle male voice.

"Xing'er, don't sleep anymore, wake up~"

This voice is Brother Yang! Suddenly, Han Xing opened his eyes, revealing a familiar, handsome face with a smile.

"Brother Yang..." Han Xing looked at Liu Hanyang blankly and said.

"What's wrong? Xing'er, don't you recognize your brother? Why do you look like that?" Liu Hanyang reached out and stroked Han Xing's eyebrows, looking at her softly and smiling.

"Brother Yang!" Han Xing couldn't help but hold Liu Hanyang's big hand.

"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare? Don't be afraid, it's all over, your brother is here!" Liu Hanyang comforted softly.

"Yeah!" Han Xing looked at Liu Hanyang without blinking and nodded obediently. He always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something very important in his heart, but he couldn't remember it for a while. But when he saw Liu Hanyang's gentle smile, he felt that nothing mattered anymore.

"Be good, Xing'er, get up!" "Yes!"

After they both finished breakfast, Liu Hanyang took Han Xing's hand and said, "Let's go! Brother will take you out to play today, okay?"

"Okay!" Han Xing responded with a bright smile.

The two of them walked hand in hand to the street, which was full of people going to the market, vendors hawking their wares, and it was very lively.

Han Xing just strolled along with the crowd, smiling, tightening his hands, his heart full of something that seemed about to overflow.

Suddenly, there was a shout in the crowd, and the flow of people immediately became chaotic. For some reason, people began to rush around. Han Xing was not careful and his tightly clenched hands were scattered.

Han Xing looked at his empty palms and stood there in a daze, not caring about the pain caused by being pushed and shoved by others. He just felt sad and as if a piece of his heart was missing.

"Brother Yang..." A soft voice leaked out from his lips, with some sadness.

Han Xing seemed to come to his senses suddenly, looked at the crowd of strangers and his lonely self.

Somehow, Han Xing was squeezed into a corner. He squatted down helplessly, looking at the busy street, but he still couldn't find that familiar figure. He lowered his head, covered his hazy eyes with his hands, and let the tears slide through his fingers.

Brother Yang, where are you? Please don’t abandon Xing’er, okay? Brother Yang… Han Xing called out sadly in her heart.

I don’t know how long I cried, but a big hand appeared on my lonely little head.

Han Xing immediately raised her tear-filled eyes, only to see a handsome face like a banished immortal magnified before her eyes. A light of tenderness and heartache gleamed in her deep black eyes. A large hand gently stroked Han Xing's little head, and the sunlight behind him made him look dreamy. At this moment, Liu Hanyang was half-crouching in front of Han Xing, his backlit.

"Xing'er, don't cry, brother is here." A soft voice sounded in Xinghan's ears.

"Brother Yang...Brother Yang!" Han Xing suddenly threw herself into Liu Hanyang's arms, hugged him tightly, and sobbed.

"Xing'er, how can your brother feel at ease when you are like this?" There was helplessness in Liu Hanyang's gentle voice.

"Then brother will just stay by Xing'er's side and watch over her!" Han Xing said immediately.

"Silly girl..." Liu Hanyang chuckled and said nothing.

"Brother Yang!" Han Xing was a little anxious. For some reason, she felt very uneasy and just wanted to get Liu Hanyang's promise as soon as possible.

"Brother also wants to stay with you, but, I can't..." Liu Hanyang looked at Han Xing's eyes, very gentle, but also helpless and painful.

"Why?" Han Xing felt her nose sour, and the crying that had just stopped seemed to be starting again.

Seeing this, Liu Hanyang reached out and covered Han Xing's eyes, and said, "Xing'er, when your brother is not by your side, you have to take good care of yourself and don't work too hard on yourself, otherwise your brother will feel bad. Also, the friends around you care about you very much, you have to cheer up quickly and don't let them worry too much..." Liu Hanyang seemed to be oblivious to Han Xing's doubts and just kept on talking to himself.

Han Xing kept shaking her head, trying to pull the big hand away from her, but she couldn't, and tears were already falling from the big hand.

A soft sigh was heard in his ear, and the big hand in front of him was finally taken away, and Han Xing was once again hugged tightly in the warm arms.

"Xing'er... don't cry... don't cry..." Liu Hanyang's soft murmurs kept coming to my ears.

Han Xing suddenly broke free from Liu Hanyang's arms, looked at Liu Hanyang, and said with red eyes: "Brother Yang, tell me, what happened? Why did you leave me? Why? Why?"

A big hand gently wiped away the tears from Han Xing's cheek. Liu Hanyang looked at Han Xing with eyes as gentle as water, but said nothing.

"Brother Yang, say it! Say it! You...ah!" Han Xing's pupils shrank suddenly. She was shocked to find that Liu Hanyang's body was gradually becoming transparent!

"No...no...no!" Han Xing stretched out her hand tremblingly to grab Liu Hanyang's hand, but touched nothing!

“…No! No! Brother Yang! Don’t go! Don’t leave me! No!” Han Xing wanted to grab Liu Hanyang and wanted to keep him, but she couldn’t!

Han Xing could only watch as Liu Hanyang became more and more transparent, and the hole in his heart grew bigger and bigger!

The two looked at each other deeply. Just when Liu Hanyang was about to disappear, his lips moved a few times, and finally, he completely disappeared into the air!

She saw it! Han Xing was very sure that she saw Liu Hanyang’s last words: Xing’er, I’ll wait for you!

Wait for her? What does that mean? Where is he going? Should she go find him?

Just when Han Xing was puzzled, Xiaohuo's voice suddenly came in his mind: "Xiaoxing! Wake up! Everyone is so worried about you!" But what was different from the past was that this time Xiaohuo's voice actually had a hint of crying in it.

Han Xing looked up at the still bustling street, closed her eyes, and calmed herself. The noisy sounds instantly vanished, leaving only silence. When she opened her eyes again, she saw her family and friends, all gloomy-faced, sitting or standing in their rooms. She was now aching and weak all over, her throat dry and uncomfortable. It turned out that everything just now was just a mirage.

Grandma held Han Xing's hand and looked at herself worriedly, while Long Xuri stood beside her, with self-blame and worry in his eyes.

As soon as Han Xing opened his eyes, Tan Niang noticed the sound and said excitedly, "Xing'er! You are finally awake!" With this shout, everyone in the room immediately gathered around the bed and looked at Han Xing with surprise.

Jin Yifeng brought a glass of water, gently helped Han Xing up, and said considerately: "Come! Drink some water before talking."

"Miss, you must be hungry! Ye'er will go and bring you a bowl of porridge now!" Ye'er said with a smile while wiping her tears, and then ran out.

After slowly drinking a glass of water, his throat felt much better. Han Xing then asked, "How long have I slept?"

"It's been seven days! Seven whole days! Xing'er, are you going to scare grandma to death?" Grandma said to Han Xing with red eyes, her eyes full of heartache.

"I'm sorry." Han Xing smiled weakly. He had slept for so long! Seeing how sleep-deprived everyone was, Han Xing felt even more distressed.

"Okay, okay, stop guarding me. I'm fine. I just need to rest for a while. Everyone go and have a rest!" Han Xing said to everyone.

"This..." Tan Niang was still a little hesitant. Long Xuri grabbed Tan Niang's hand and gently advised, "Okay, Tan'er, let Xing'er rest well. She just woke up and is very weak! She needs more rest. Let's not disturb her, okay?"

"Well... okay! Xing'er, you should have a good rest! Grandma won't disturb you anymore." Tan Niang compromised.

Han Xing smiled, looked at Long Xuri and Tan Niang, and nodded.

Then, everyone went out one after another, leaving only Jin Yifeng.

"Brother Feng, he..." Han Xing hesitated to speak.

"He's fine, Xing'er, don't worry." Jin Yifeng said directly.

Seeing Han Xing's puzzled expression, Jin Yifeng told him everything that happened after Han Xing became abnormal.

"It's good that you're okay, Brother Yang is okay! But, Tianwai Island? Where is it? How strong do I have to become to go there?" Han Xing was surprised at first, then confused.

Jin Yifeng shook his head and replied, "I don't know, but I managed to contact Master a few days ago. He should be arriving soon. Maybe Master knows about Tianwai Island." As he spoke, he took out a pill from his pocket and continued, "This is the medicine that person gave me."

Han Xing leaned in closer and smelled it, surprise flashing in his eyes. He didn't even know the ingredients of this medicine. But it seemed that the old man would not harm him.

So, Han Xing swallowed it in one gulp, and instantly felt that the pain in his body was relieved a lot. The refreshing fragrance of the pill made him feel comfortable all over, and his wounds were healing rapidly.

Even more miraculous was that his dried-up Dantian and overdrawn mana were rapidly recovering. This medicine was truly miraculous! When he reached Tianwai Island, he would definitely learn how to refine all the elixirs there!
