Chapter 232: Dream

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The years of cultivation and moral radiance on Mingze would all be destroyed in an instant, and Jianz Tao might even be a gluttonous minor, possibly disappearing completely. As for the Observer, they probably wouldn’t fare any better and might be imprisoned in the underworld for hundreds of years, enduring torment on Knife Mountain and Fire Sea!

“Cannot go, cannot go!” Ji Jing walked up to each person, attempting to stop them, but no one could hear her, and no one could see her.

How could this be? Ji Jing almost felt despair as she watched them set up the formation.

“Jing Jing,” a clear voice suddenly echoed in Ji Jing’s ear.

“No, can’t go!” Ji Jing suddenly opened her eyes and saw the familiar yet unfamiliar ceiling. This decor… was it Mingze’s house?

Ji Jing turned dazedly and saw Mingze sitting calmly at the edge of her bed.

“Was that just a dream?” Ji Jing’s turmoil hadn’t fully subsided, but when she calmed down a bit, she realized there were too many inconsistencies in the scene she just witnessed.

“Yes, it was a dream, but also the most real one,” Mingze pulled her blanket and tucked her in to keep her warm.

Ji Jing finally regained her senses and noticed an otherworldly creature poking its head out in Mingze’s lap.

“Is that Boqi?” Ji Jing tried to gather her chaotic thoughts and slowly matched the description to her memories. “Could it be that the dream I just had…” “Yes, Boqi created it for you,” Mingze’s gaze was complex, filled with both concern and affection.

Boqi was a dream-eating divine beast. Legends had it that it would crouch by people who talked in their sleep, eating their dreams. The dreams it consumed could also be regurgitated, and some rumors suggested that it could both consume and create dreams.

Mingze gently held Ji Jing’s left hand, unwrapping the bandages to change her medicine. He asked casually, “Jing Jing, when you saw me yesterday, did you let go of your hand?”

But his gaze was penetrating, as if he had already seen through everything.

“Ah…” Ji Jing nervously touched her nose. Mingze’s hand was dry and warm, but at this moment, her skin seemed to burn when they touched.

During the thunder tribulation, she could have hidden inside the house temporarily until it couldn’t withstand the thunder anymore. She chose to go to the yard alone because she didn’t want to involve them. She could have prepared a few more talismans before acting, but she didn’t, which left her with no talismans when the thunder struck. She could have resisted a bit longer, but she let go of her hand…

In many decisions, she chose the riskier and more fearless path. She was confident that Mingze was all-powerful and would return in time. She also didn’t value her own life.

She didn’t dare to meet Mingze’s eyes; she knew he understood it all.

“I’m glad you trust me,” Mingze gently finished applying the new medicine and rebandaged her. “But I hope you’ll cherish yourself more. I care about you, and many others care about you.”

Ji Jing blushed as she listened.

“The dream Boqi created was based on the most realistic situation, which means if, by any chance, yesterday…” Mingze’s voice remained calm but made

Ji Jing anxious.

“No, there’s no ‘if!!” Ji Jing quickly held Mingze’s hand. “I promise.”

She would remember that scene from the dream deeply. She couldn’t bear to see Mingze put himself in danger, just as Mingze couldn’t stand her underestimating herself.

“Mmm.” Mingze smiled gently and let her go. It was as if there were more unforgettable scenes in the dream, but Mingze chose to end it when he saw the genuine panic in Ji Jing’s eyes.

“By the way, since you’re awake, drink the medicinal soup,” Mingze changed the subject, his gaze landing on a tray at the bedside.

Oh? Following his gaze, Ji Jing immediately saw a bowl of pitch-black medicine.

Heavens… it looks incredibly bitter! The warmth in Ji Jing’s heart was instantly overshadowed by despair. Could she really drink this?

But Mingze’s gaze was so tender and worried. Ji Jing took the bowl in her trembling hand and took a small sip.

That sip was so bitter it reached deep into Ji Jing’s soul!

She would remember, she would remember deeply! Next time, she absolutely had to protect herself completely. She couldn’t use her blood to draw talismans, she couldn’t get hurt, or else this thing would be waiting for her! Ji

Jing’s hand holding the bowl trembled..
