"Finally found it!"

Xiao Zheng’s heart surged with excitement.

He finally found Hades’ figure at the deepest part of the Frozen Cave!

She was still dressed in that red robe, lying on the ground, her face looking extremely pale. She looked just like a corpse, devoid of any signs of life or movement.

Especially the gruesome wound on her abdomen, a glance at it sent chills down his spine.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zheng’s heart instantly sank to the bottom.

Without further delay, he rushed madly towards Hades. When he reached her side, the moment he touched her body, only one word flashed in his mind, cold!

Hades’ body felt like a block of ice, so cold to the touch!

Xiao Zheng hurriedly injected a strand of energy into her body, trying to check her vital signs. The result of the check made him temporarily breathe a sigh of relief.

Hades was still alive!

Despite her severe injuries and having been in a coma in the Frozen Cave for so long, she was still alive. However, her consciousness had fallen into slumber, so she looked no different from a corpse.

This was also a form of self-preservation.

Her consciousness fell into slumber, greatly slowing the loss of her vitality.

If not for this, Hades would never have lasted until Xiao Zheng’s arrival. Fortunately, Xiao Zheng arrived in time; if he had found the Frozen Cave a day or two later, Hades would have been in real danger.

Xiao Zheng then supported Hades to let her sit on the ground.

He himself undid her robe and then placed both hands tightly on her back. At the same time, Xiao Zheng quickly activated his perspective vision.

With the help of his perspective vision, he immediately located the most severely injured area on Hades and immediately began rescuing her.

Xiao Zheng continuously channeled his energy into Hades’ body.

His face gradually turned pale, while Hades’ complexion slowly began to pink up. This indicated that Hades’ condition was improving, and the ghastly wound on her abdomen was also healing rapidly.

The entire treatment process lasted about thirty minutes.

Just when Xiao Zheng was about to lose hold, Hades finally emitted a slightly pained groan. Hearing this, Xiao Zheng’s heart instantly surged with excitement. He then increased his intensity, indiscriminately pouring his energy into Hades’ body.

Another thirty minutes passed.

Finally, Xiao Zheng was exhausted and collapsed weakly on the ground.

It felt as though all his bones had gone soft, even moving a finger was extremely arduous.

Xiao Zheng felt his vision becoming increasingly blurry, and eventually, he fell into a deep sleep.

He didn’t know how long he had slept.

When Xiao Zheng woke up, he saw a figure standing before him.

He quickly rubbed his eyes, and upon finding out the figure was Hades, he immediately jumped up from the ground in excitement: "Hades! You’re finally awake! How do you feel now? Is there anywhere in your body that still feels uncomfortable?"

Seeing his eager and joyful expression, Hades felt a warm sensation in her heart.

However, her expression looked as cold as ever: "I feel much better now, thank you."

Hades actually opened her mouth to thank someone!

If people familiar with her saw this, they would be utterly shocked!

Xiao Zheng was also a bit surprised, but then he smiled and said, "Given our relationship, saying thank you feels a bit too formal. Morren has already told me the reason you were in trouble."

"You really didn’t have to go to such great lengths for me."

Upon hearing this, Hades retorted with the words he just said, "Given our relationship, isn’t saying things like this a bit too formal?"

Xiao Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Since when did your tongue become so sharp? I mean to say, you don’t have to shoulder everything by yourself; if you can’t handle it, you can ask me to help."

"Let’s not talk about this now. Did Morren come to find you?" Hades asked.

Xiao Zheng nodded, and then he recounted everything that had happened after she was sealed.

After learning that Morren had challenged him to a duel on the Top of Kunlun and he had slain Noah and Lancelot in the Underground Palace, surprise flickered in Hades’ eyes. After all, she knew how powerful those three were.

She never expected Xiao Zheng to be able to defeat Morren, and in the end, kill Noah and Lancelot as well.

Seeing her expression, Xiao Zheng seemed to guess what she was thinking, and then he spoke, "Aside from defeating Morren, I didn’t use any trickery. As for me being able to kill Noah and Lancelot, there was certainly some luck involved."

"If it weren’t for you injuring them, I wouldn’t have been able to take them down so easily."

"It’s just a pity that Morren managed to escape in the end. If I meet him again, I will definitely kill him!"

At this, a killing intent flickered in Xiao Zheng’s eyes.

Hades nodded, then said expressionlessly, "Killing him is inevitable, but our biggest challenge now is to find a way to get out of here first."

"How is your injury now? Fully recovered?" Xiao Zheng asked.

In response, Hades nodded and said, "Fully recovered, and my cultivation has even progressed."

She was now not too far from reaching the Mid Marvelous Realm.

This was a blessing in disguise; she only needed another opportunity to truly break through to the Mid Marvelous Realm.

Hearing her response, Xiao Zheng finally relaxed: "Since your injuries are healed, that’s good. Before I found you, I had checked, and besides the passage above, there’s no other way out for us."

"There’s the Ancestor Seal above; it’s not easy to get out of here," Hades said.

"What about the Ancestor Seal? As long as we join forces, I don’t believe that a mere seal can stop us from getting out!" Xiao Zheng said with a hint of arrogance on his face.

Hades never liked to dawdle.

Since Xiao Zheng had already thought of a plan, she got up and headed towards the passage above. Xiao Zheng quickly followed in her footsteps, and the two of them eventually stood together at the bottom of the passage.

Looking up at the passage, through the opening, they could see the blue sky.

"Are you ready?"

Hades suddenly asked.

"Ready, let’s start."

Xiao Zheng nodded, then prepared to start climbing up.

But before he could take action, he felt a lightness in his body as Hades pulled on his clothes, taking him airborne!
