The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 468

After an unknown amount of time, when night fell and the stars began to twinkle, Mo Shaoxie finally woke up. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar environment. He was startled and immediately looked into his arms, where Shangguan Ziling was lying.

"Ling'er, Ling'er, wake up." Mo Shaoxie's voice was trembling and anxious. He gently shook Shangguan Ziling's body, trying to wake her up.

Shangguan Ziling also woke up when Mo Shaoxie called her. She opened her eyes and saw Mo Shaoxie's concerned look, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She sat up and checked her body, finding that apart from some pain, she was not seriously injured.

"Are you okay?" Mo Shaoxie was relieved when he saw Shangguan Ziling wake up. He sat up and hugged Shangguan Ziling tightly in his arms, as if he was afraid of losing her again.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Shangguan Ziling looked up at Mo Shaoxie, her eyes full of concern and worry.

"I'm fine too." Mo Shaoxie smiled and shook his head, but the fatigue and worry in his eyes were hard to conceal.

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly sounded in the space: "Woo... Master, I hope you and the male master are okay. You scared the baby to death."

"Little Fatty, we're all fine, don't cry." Shangguan Ziling comforted the little fat boy softly.

As the night deepened, Mo Shaoxie and Shangguan Ziling sat on the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, leaning against each other.

The night was as dark as ink. Shangguan Ziling took out a plate of delicious roast chicken from the space. The aroma filled the air and immediately moved Mo Shaoxie who was standing beside her.

Shangguan Ziling couldn't wait to tear off a piece of chicken leg and handed it to Mo Shaoxie. Fortunately, she usually stored food in her space.

Shangguan Ziling tore off another piece of chicken leg and put it into her mouth to savor it carefully. The tender meat, paired with the unique spices, was very memorable.

The roast chicken made by Chunxiao tastes really delicious.

"Little Fatty, where is the spiritual energy you mentioned?" Shangguan Ziling asked the little fat boy in the space while gnawing on a roast chicken.

When the little fat boy heard this, he waved his hands excitedly, his voice full of joy: "Master, the spiritual energy is not far from here!"

Shangguan Ziling looked up and saw the night was dim and dark. She said, "Well, since we are already here, we don't have to rush. Let's wait until tomorrow morning to look for spiritual energy."

The little fat boy nodded obediently and replied, "Okay, Master."

After eating and drinking, Shangguan Ziling looked at the dimly visible moon in the sky, and a sense of worry surged in her heart. She turned to look at Mo Shaoxie and said softly: "Mo Shaoxie, do you think mother and the others are looking for us anxiously now?"

Mo Shaoxie stretched out his arms, hugged Shangguan Ziling tightly in his arms, and comforted her: "The secret guards know that we are together. They should think that we have left temporarily for something, or have gone to other places. You don't have to worry too much."

Shangguan Ziling felt a little relieved after listening to Mo Shaoxie's words.

"After the fat boy absorbs the spiritual energy tomorrow, we will find a way to leave the bottom of this cliff. I miss Xiao Yier!" Shangguan Ziling said in a low voice.

Mo Shaoxie nodded in agreement.

What they didn't know was that they had been staying in this deep cliff for five years.

In the middle of the night, Shangguan Ziling and Mo Shaoxie entered the space to rest.

When the morning light first appeared, the two woke up from their sleep. They got up, washed up simply and ate some cakes.

The two of them left the space, and then, under the guidance of Little Fatty, they followed the winding mountain road and came to a hidden cave at the bottom of the cliff.

The little fat boy excitedly guided: "Master, it's inside."

Shangguan Ziling looked at Mo Shaoxie, her eyes sparkling with anticipation and curiosity: "Little Fatty said the spiritual energy is in there."

Mo Shaoxie gently held her hand, and the two of them stepped into the unknown cave together.

Shangguan Ziling took out a huge night-shining pearl from the space. Its light was soft and bright, illuminating the way ahead.

The cave was very spacious. As they went deeper and deeper, a faint light gradually came from the front.

"Master, I can feel the spiritual energy getting closer."

Shangguan Ziling put away the night pearl and said with a smile: "The little fat boy can feel the spiritual energy getting closer."

Mo Shaoxie looked at the place not far ahead with deep eyes, and walked towards the light together with Shangguan Ziling.

When they reached the depths of the cave, the sight before them was breathtaking.

This is a huge sinkhole. Looking up, the sky seems to be within reach.

The surrounding is shrouded in clouds and mist, like a dream, as if you are in a fairyland.

Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful, it feels like I've arrived in a fairyland."

The little fat boy shouted excitedly: "Aura, aura!"

Shangguan Ziling asked with a smile: "Little Fatty, how are you going to absorb this spiritual energy?"

The little fat boy replied, "Master, I am going to practice in seclusion now. Just don't leave here. Don't disturb me until I wake up."

Shangguan Ziling nodded in agreement and relayed the fat boy's words to Mo Shaoxie.

The two found a relatively quiet place to sit down and enjoy the scenery.

Ten days passed in a flash. Shangguan Ziling leaned in Mo Shaoxie's arms and said boredly, "Mo Shaoxie, the little fat guy has been in seclusion for ten days. I don't know when he will wake up. I haven't seen Xiao Yier for ten days. I miss him so much!"

Mo Shaoxie gently patted her back and comforted her, "Ling'er, since the little fat boy has already started his retreat, there is nothing we can do except wait for him to wake up. We just need to wait patiently."

Shangguan Ziling also knew that cultivation could not be rushed, but she initially thought it would not take long!

But when Shangguan Ziling thought that although the little fat boy was an artifact spirit, it was not easy for him to encounter spiritual energy in this era of scarce spiritual energy, her restless heart slowly calmed down.

"Mo Shaoxie, why don't you find a way to leave this cliff first. After Little Fatty wakes up, I will find a way to get up with him. Mother and the others don't know where we are, and they must be looking for us anxiously." Shangguan Ziling raised her head, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

Mo Shaoxie shook his head firmly: "No, Ling'er. I will never let you stay here alone."

Shangguan Ziling felt helpless when she saw Mo Shaoxie's stubborn look, but she silently prayed in her heart that the little fat boy would wake up soon.

"It's so boring! No matter how beautiful the scenery here is, you'll get tired of it after looking at it for a long time." Shangguan Ziling said softly.

There were only him and Mo Shaoxie here, and she missed Xiao Yier very much.
