Remembering the past, anger surged in Elder Mie Yu’s eyes, "I had originally planned to return to the Demon World to check on the Demon King and Demon Queen. I had just reached the barrier leading to the Demon Clan when I was ambushed. I barely managed to kill those people, but I was also seriously injured."
Song Yan Ning nodded, a chill flickering in her gaze, "Once you’ve recovered, we’ll return to the Demon Clan." As long as she could avenge herself upon her enemies, she didn’t care if she shattered into pieces.
"Good." Elder Mie Yu nodded, her eyes filled with determination. She was definitely going back to the Demon World. The Demon King and Demon Queen had been kind to her, and she wouldn’t let those traitors go even if it cost her life.
Song Yan Ning took out a Storage Ring and handed it to Elder Mie Yu, "Here are some elixirs, Spirit Stones, and a Spiritual Spring."
"Is this a Storage Ring?" Elder Mie Yu looked at the Storage Ring in Song Yan Ning’s hand with shock. Even the Demon King and Demon Queen only had Storage Bags in the Demon World. A Storage Ring was legendary.
Song Yan Ning nodded, "It was crafted by Qin Yushen. He’s a cultivator, just like me, but he came from the Immortal World."
Elder Mie Yu thought for a moment, "Is he the man who was with you that day?" She had a deep impression of Qin Yushen. He had an aura of superiority that was difficult to ignore, evidently no ordinary being.
"Mm." Song Yan Ning gave a nod.
"Young Prince, are you and Qin Yushen in a romantic relationship?" Elder Mie Yu asked. If not, there would be no reason for him to give something so precious to the Young Prince, let alone disclose his real identity.
"He is my fiancé." Song Yan Ning did not intend to hide it from Elder Mie Yu and briefly shared her past with Qin Yushen.
"Will he accompany you to the Demon World?" Elder Mie Yu hoped Qin Yushen would join Song Yan Ning on her return to the Demon World. An extra source of strength would increase their chances of success.
"I don’t want him to go with me." Song Yan Ning shook her head, a bitter taste in her mouth. She didn’t want to be separated from Qin Yushen, but she didn’t want to drag him into a situation knowing it was a life-or-death matter.
"Young Prince, do you love him very much?" Elder Mie Yu looked at Song Yan Ning. She could see that the Young Prince’s affection for Qin Yushen ran deep. Wasn’t she the same with Han Jinhe?
"Mm!" Song Yan Ning nodded. That’s why she was unwilling to let him accompany her to the Demon World.
Han Jinhe had been waiting for a long time without seeing Song Yan Ning emerge, his heart growing anxious. He pressed his ear against the door, trying to hear what was being said, but after a while, there was no sound at all.
Just as he was about to knock, the door opened.
"Doctor Song, how is she? Is her body okay?" Han Jinhe looked towards Elder Mie Yu behind Song Yan Ning.
Song Yan Ning shook her head and smiled, "She’s fine. She just needs a few more days to recuperate."
Han Jinhe’s heart eased, "Doctor Song, thank you!"
"You’re welcome," Song Yan Ning shook her head. She could tell that Han Jinhe truly cared for Elder Mie Yu; otherwise, he wouldn’t have switched the patients. It was a pity that he and Elder Mie Yu were fated but not destined.
"Doctor Song, wait for me for a moment. I need to speak with Yu’er," Han Jinhe apologized with a smile to Song Yan Ning and stepped into the room.
"Mm," Song Yan Ning nodded and walked to the window at the end of the corridor, looking out at the garden view. Han Jinhe and Elder Mie Yu were surely having a private conversation, and it wasn’t appropriate for her to listen.
Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, the corners of Song Yan Ning’s lips faintly curled up.
