Chapter 187: Would I Also Have That Kind Of Adventure?
Accepting the old man offer, Chen Tian gave the old man his phone number and left after Ming Ming returned to the room. Ming Ming wanted Chen Tian to stay a little longer, but Chen Tian politely declined.
He had been here for too long, and it was time for him to go back. The girls should have already finished talking with Yuan Ning.
Ming Ming's expression dropped as she realized that Chen Tian was leaving.
She couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness, something the old man had noticed as he watched them from a distance.
'Oh!~, interesting little girls really do grow up so fast,' he thought to himself with a knowing smile on his face.
Leaving the Ming family behind, Chen Tian made his way towards his aunt's room.
As he walked, he kept thinking about the possibilities of the location of the hidden ruin.
When he returned from the cultivation, Chen Tian already had a plan to go to Mount Tai Pangu.
According to Chinese ancient mythology, when Pangu, the ancestor of all things, died, his head turned into Mount Tai, his belly turned into the Central Mountain, his left arm turned into the South Mountain, his right arm turned into the North Mountain, and his feet turned into the West Mountain.
Mount Tai has thus become the head of all mountains.
Chen Tian believed that if there were any hidden ruins related to Pangu, Mount Tai would be the ideal place to search.
The legends and myths surrounding the mountain only added to the intrigue, making it a compelling location to explore.
But there was a problem: Chen Tian didn't know where to start his search.
Unlike Kulun Mountain, Mount Tai had many different peaks and trails, making it difficult to determine where exactly the hidden ruins could be.
That is why it was better to wait for the old man, Ming, to contact him with more specific information.
Two hands suddenly covered Chen Tian's eyes.
"Guess who?" A feminine voice whispered from behind Chen Tian.
He recognized that voice immediately—Chen Tian laughed and removed the hands from his eyes, turning around to face his dear wife.
"Does my dear wife miss me?" Chen Tian teased as he wrapped his arms around Emilia's waist in a warm embrace.
"Humph, you wish!" Emilia playfully responded, giving Chen Tian a playful pinch on the arm.
"But I missed you more than you can imagine," Chen Tian said sincerely, his eyes filled with love and longing.
Emilia's playful demeanor softened as she looked into his eyes.
"I missed you too, you big goof." Emilia hugged Chen Tian tightly, burying her face in his chest.
The familiar scent of his body brought back a wave of emotions, reminding her of the countless moments they had shared together.
Both of them decided to go to a place where they could be alone, walking to the hospital garden hand in hand.
The garden was a sanctuary, filled with vibrant flowers and the soothing sound of trickling water.
As they strolled along the winding path, Chen Tian gently brushed his fingers against Emilia's hand, sending shivers down her spine.
It felt like time had stood still, and at that moment, they knew that their love was stronger than ever.
Both of them rested on a bench under a shady tree, basking in the warmth of the sun.
"What have you been up to all this time?" Emilia asked, her voice filled with curiosity.
Chen Tian chuckled, running a hand through her hair as he began to recount his adventures since they last saw each other.
For Emilia, it was only 3 days, but for Chen Tian, a month had passed without seeing her.
He described the place he had visited, the people he had met, and the thrilling experiences he had encountered along the way.
Emilia listened intently, captivated by his tales, feeling a mixture of excitement and envy.
"Would I also have that kind of adventure?" she asked, her eyes gleaming with a newfound desire to explore the world Chen Tian described.
Chen Tian smiled warmly at her, his voice filled with encouragement. "Of course you can, dear; just wait until the right opportunity presents itself, and I will let you go to that world." Chen Tian promised Emilia.
Emilia's heart skipped a beat as she heard these words, a surge of hope and anticipation flooding through her.
"Really?!" Emilia exclaimed, her voice filled with a mixture of disbelief and pure joy.
"Um," Chen Tian nodded and continued, "Yes, really. I want you to experience that world, but not now.
I still have some problems there that need to be resolved. Once everything is settled, I promise I will take you there myself. Until then, be patient and trust me."
Chen Tian wasn't lying; he really wanted to take Emilia with him to the cultivation world.
Now that she was also a cultivator, the best place for her to grow was that world, but Chen Tian wanted to wait till he was fully adjusted to the Immortal Sword Sect before bringing her there.
Emilia nodded, her excitement still palpable but tempered with understanding.
She knew that Chen Tian had her best interests at heart and that waiting for the right moment would only make the experience even more worthwhile.
So she resolved to be patient.
A beautiful smile was gracing her lips as she moved closer to Chen Tian and sat on his lap, her arms locking around his neck.
Her sudden action took Chen Tian by surprise, but he smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer.
He could feel the warmth of her body against his and the love radiating from her eyes.
He whispered softly, "Does my dear have something she wants to tell me?"
She chuckled and nodded, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Yes," she replied, her voice filled with anticipation. "I love you,"
She said that and took his lips in a gentle and passionate kiss.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still as their love and desire for each other ignited.
Chen Tian returned the kiss with equal fervor, their embrace deepening as they lost themselves in the intoxicating connection they shared.
