The ring slowly opened. At this moment, Shen Yanxiao's heart was in her throat.
Within the ring, a figure that looked exactly like Xiu was dressed in golden armor, his long dark hair scattered loosely behind him. His breathtaking eyes were closed tightly and his hands were folded in front of his chest as he slept quietly. In the midst of the darkness of the ring, he was so striking, like a peerless god sleeping at night. He looked so peaceful.
Shen Yanxiao's mouth trembled slightly and her whole body tightened uncontrollably. She suddenly closed the ring and hugged Xiu.
"We found it! We found it! We really found it..." Shen Yanxiao trembled with excitement. Her guess was confirmed and her careful planning finally got the perfect ending.
Xiu's body was indeed inside Satan's storage ring. It lay there so quietly, so beautifully; like sleeping beauty, it made it so people could not bear to wake him up.
The concern buried in Shen Yanxiao's heart for many years had finally been released. No words could describe her excited mood at this moment.
Xiu held Shen Yanxiao and patted her body that was trembling with excitement.
"You did a good job." Xiu comforted Shen Yanxiao in a soft voice. He could clearly feel Shen Yanxiao's explosive joy at the moment.
She was truly very happy for him and excited for his coming complete revival.
"You can now be revived completely, you can now be revived completely..." Shen Yanxiao used to have a glib tongue, but now she seemed to have lost this ability. She repeated the same six words shakingly as she clung to Xiu desperately, hoping to bury herself into his soul.
What had been on her mind for many years could finally be resolved, and Xiu could finally be resurrected.
She no longer had to worry about his excessive consumption of strength, no longer had to worry that he would fall into a deep slumber again, and his embrace would no longer bring her coldness in the future; she could finally feel the heat that belonged to him.
Xiu quietly hugged her, bearing all her emotions.
How many years had it been since he lived in Shen Yanxiao's body as a soul? From when his consciousness was still vague until it gradually became clear, he watched Shen Yanxiao change from being a mentally deficient child to a clever, heaven-defying little monster. All this time, it was not that he had never thought about being completely revived, but the hope of success was particularly slim. All the way, Shen Yanxiao's journey was unusually bumpy. She took every step carefully and with unparalleled conviction. Xiu had never thought of urging her to look for his body; as long as she was always with him, it was already enough for him.
As he watched the little girl grow up bit by bit, he also learned all about her.
The things he did not take to heart, she carefully remembered them all. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would always try her best.
This time, she did not even hesitate to play with her own life just to cheat all this out of Satan's hands.
She was not even sure whether his body were inside the storage ring or not before she opened it.
Even so, she was still willing to stake everything for it once.
Xiu raised Shen Yanxiao's little face and kissed her trembling lips with extraordinary tenderness. What floated in his eyes was the tenderness and love that he himself did not even realize.
"Now is not the right time." His lips pressed against her soft lips and he whispered softly.
"Why?" Shen Yanxiao froze.
"Yun Qi once did some tricks to my soul. It cannot be separated from your body at the moment. Don't worry, just wait until we go back to The Rising Sun City and take the last step." Xiu's face was full of warm smiles, which were enough to melt a thousand-year-old iceberg. Indeed, such a precious smile.
