Xyla Quest emptied her mind. Apart from absorbing earthly spiritual essence, she didn’t think about anything else.Right then, her entire world became quiet.While she sat, Stanley Batton stood next to her. Moreover, he silently set the alarm for her.According to what Yaksha had instructed, Xyla sat there for three full hours.Three hours later, the alarm went off.Xyla slowly opened her eyes…As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Stanley sitting next to her, looking down at his work emails on his phone.Stanley was wearing a white shirt. Right then, the first three buttons of his shirt were left open.His perfect collar bones were completely exposed.Meanwhile, he had also rolled his sleeves up to his elbow. It made him appear somewhat lazy.This man seemed to be shining.Although they were clearly in a dark environment, he was still as bright as ever…At that moment, Xyla suddenly felt that her body had become very relaxed. Even when she breathed, it felt much smooth
Stanley Batton found out about a lot of stuff that he never knew today…“Yes…” Stanley’s eyes were void of emotions. His voice still sounded as good as ever.“I think we might be able to start cultivating together soon. Would we then be able to live forever?“I think Yaksha meant that we’d eventually be able to start cultivating… The time just hasn’t come yet,” Xyla said carefully. In reality, she wasn’t very interested in this matter.That was because she found no point in living forever if Stanley couldn’t do so too…When the time came for Stanley to leave, what awaited her would be an endless period of loneliness and longing.However, now that Xyla knew about Stanley also having an empty spiritual root, and he could also cultivate, she had changed her mind.Xyla suddenly thought that it wouldn’t be too bad if she could cultivate with Stanley…If that happened, they’d be able to stay together all their lives.Most importantly, they’d have immortality and never grow old after
At that moment, Xyla Quest suddenly felt a warmth in her heart.Not only did the man she loved offered her the best in the world, but he could even see through her pretense at one glance.“To be honest, I was perturbed too… But I didn’t want to express it in front of you, and I didn’t dare to tell you too much either…” Stanley Batton added.At that moment, Xyla’s heart felt even warmer.Xyla could relate to everything he said, and she had already guessed it…He only behaved this way because he didn’t want to make her feel more nervous.He wanted to make her feel that the situation wasn’t as bad as it seemed.“Honey, can I ask you a question?” Xyla asked.“Go ahead…” Stanley said.“What if the miracle doctor, Yaksha, told us that my condition was severe, and I might die in a short period? What would you do?” Xyla asked.When Stanley heard this, his heart suddenly convoluted painfully.He frowned deeply. “Don’t say nonsense like that. This hypothesis doesn’t exist…” He serious
After standing up, Xyla Quest subconsciously brushed her buttocks. She was afraid dust might have been stuck on her.Stanley Batton picked up her white satin robe on the ground and gently put it on her.Throughout the entire process, he didn’t let her move at all.At this moment, Xyla was like a baby being taken care of by him…Suddenly, Xyla couldn’t help but think that he was such a good caretaker. If they had a daughter in the future, would he be this gentle with their daughter?By then, would he become the most loving father in Atlantis?When Xyla thought of this, she subconsciously pictured Stanley with a doll-like little girl. She imagined him brushing her teeth, washing her face, putting clothes on her, and cooking for her.It was a wonderful thought.Xyla couldn’t help but smile widely.“What are you thinking about? Honey?” Sensing that Xyla had gotten lost in her thoughts, a curious look appeared in Stanley’s eyes.“Nothing… I just thought that you’re such a good hus
After walking for a long time, they finally arrived in front of Yaksha’s two-story, national-type burgundy villa.Right then, Yaksha was sitting in front of the main entrance reading a medical book.From afar, he seemed unusually tall, thin, and pallid. It was painful to look at.When Yaksha saw the two of them walking over, he instantly stood up and put the medical book down on his rosewood, national-style chair.When Xyla Quest and Yaksha’s eyes met, Xyla instantly smiled awkwardly. She then looked at Stanley Batton’s perfect jawline. “Put me down…”Stanley acted as if he hadn’t heard her. He carried her to Yaksha before reluctantly putting her down.At this moment, Xyla felt extremely embarrassed.However, Stanley behaved as if nothing had happened.When Yaksha saw the couple behaving in such a lovey-dovey manner, he instantly smiled.“Ms. Quest, if your deceased loved ones knew that you’re living so happily, they’d be happy too…” Yaksha said.Xyla nodded and smiled. “Yes…
On the way, Xyla Quest saw many familiar faces. However, she didn’t see the scarred bald man that had troubled her and Stanley Batton the most the other day.That man left a deep impression on Xyla.That was because she and Stanley had nearly lost their lives to him.Yaksha led them respectfully into the living room.A pot of tea had been brewed and left on a burgundy, rosewood, national-style coffee table.The teapot was transparent, and there was seemingly bitter, light green tea in it.After walking up to the coffee table, the three of them sat down.This time, Yaksha sat on his own on the single sofa.Meanwhile, Xyla and Stanley sat next to each other on the long sofa.As soon as Yaksha sat down, he picked up the teapot and poured each of them a cup of bitter-looking tea.The light scent of tea filled their nostrils. It had a calming effect.“Have some of this bitter tea. It’ll cool you down, and it’s good for your body…” Yaksha slowly picked up the cup of bitter tea in
“In fact, some of the stronger ghosts could even tell that I saw them when I looked at them. Hence, they started asking me for all kinds of favors…“There were all sorts of strange requests. There were also many kinds of strange ghosts. In fact, there were even vengeful ghosts with their bodies covered in blood.“However, they’ve only ever asked me for help, and they’ve never hurt me. After that, I stopped feeling afraid, and I started to get used to these eyes.“Back when I was eighteen, I worked as an apprentice for a doctor. Back then, my master often sent me to gather herbs in the mountains.“There was once when I bumped into Paracelsus while I was gathering herbs. We got along right away, and he taught me many things.“After that, he even introduced me to Oribasius, Herophilos, and Michael Servetus.“Because of their guidance, my medical skills improved drastically…“Within five years, I became a miracle doctor that people often mentioned,” Yaksha said, recalling the past.
“Back then, I asked him about cultivation. However, he told me I couldn’t start cultivating yet… That’s because I did too many evil deeds in my past life…“Hence, I asked about my past life. He told me that I was a tyrant in my past life, and I had killed countless ordinary citizens as well as loyal subordinates…“That’s why I need to do some good deeds to atone for my sins gradually. That’s the only way I can start cultivating…“Not only that, but he even implanted in my brain memories of my past life as an emperor…“He also taught me how to check my karmic points. It’s the same method as I taught you to check your spiritual energy points…“Back then, I saw that my karmic point was at 100%... The entire karmic bar was black…“I immediately asked him how to clear off the karmic points, and he told me that one way to do so was to help heaven by assisting resentful spirits to move on…“I’d have to carry out some of their wishes before getting rid of their resentment. After that, I
