South Sea, Five Dragons Sea Region.
A Qilin Turtle over thirty feet long floated on the surface of the sea. Wang Changsheng stood on its back, gazing at Azure Lotus Island in the distance, and finally let out a sigh of relief.
"I'm finally back. I wonder how Qingqing is doing."
Wang Changsheng spoke to himself. As soon as his voice fell, a blue escape light flew out from Azure Lotus Island. After a flicker, it landed before Wang Changsheng. It was Wang Ruyan.
Wang Ruyan's face lit up with excitement at the sight of Wang Changsheng.
"My lady, I'm back. You've advanced to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage—that's a joyous occasion!"
Wang Changsheng was overjoyed. He and Wang Ruyan were now both at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage. If they joined forces against an enemy, they should be able to contend with a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator.
Wang Ruyan smiled sweetly. "Husband, your safe return is the true joyous occasion."
Seeing Wang Changsheng return safely, the weight hanging over her heart could finally be set down.
They were an old married couple; a single glance was enough for them to understand each other. Wang Changsheng put away the Qilin Turtle and flew back to Azure Lotus Island with Wang Ruyan.
Before long, they arrived at Azure Lotus Peak.
"My lady, this Dust Cleansing Flute was refined from Six Roots Pure Bamboo. With this treasure in hand, your strength will increase severalfold."
Wang Changsheng flipped his palm. A green light flashed, and a pale-green flute appeared in his hand. He handed it to Wang Ruyan.
Wang Changsheng had used Six Roots Pure Bamboo to refine many Magic Treasures. This Dust Cleansing Flute was merely one of them.
With this treasure in hand, Wang Ruyan's strength truly could increase severalfold.
