Nangong Xue held her hand against her chest, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Just now, she almost fainted, and if it weren’t for her strong willpower, she might not have been able to endure it.
She had to admit that the idea proposed by the young man beside her was indeed effective.
At first, Nangong Xue had rejected the idea, thinking it would be quite difficult to achieve. But only after trying it herself did she realize she had underestimated him.
"I didn’t expect your idea to be quite good."
"Of course it is!"
Lin Chen looked at Nangong Xue beside him with a sense of pride in his heart.
"By the way, where exactly are you planning to go next?"
Nangong Xue held her hand against her chest, her face growing paler, and for her, this was the most pressing issue that needed solving now.
Because it wouldn’t be fair to waste someone else’s time.
To have this person in front of her sacrifice things to stay and care for her, he must have some matters to attend to.
She originally thought that she would head to this mainland to find the legendary Supreme Life Form.
But upon further consideration, she realized she had no real need for it.
Because finding the Supreme Life Form might not be able to fully resolve the current crisis facing the Nangong family.
Therefore, the most important thing for him now is to return to Tianyuan Continent as soon as possible.
"I also need to go to Tianyuan Continent now."
Lin Chen expressed his attitude with firm resolve, and the girl next to him seemed a bit surprised upon hearing it, lifting her head to glance at him.
She even wondered if there was a problem with her hearing.
Is it really such a remarkable coincidence that they both ended up with the same destination, heading to Tianyuan Continent together?
"Why are you going to Tianyuan Continent?"
Nangong Xue had a preconceived notion, having never asked him about his future plans, so his sudden revelation that he was heading to Tianyuan Continent caught her by surprise.
"Don’t worry about it; I have matters to attend to on Tianyuan Continent."
Seeing the impatience displayed by the person in front of her, Nangong Xue wasn’t irritated but rather found it somewhat admirable.
Being the esteemed princess of the Nangong family, she was widely known and admired by many.
Thus, everyone always behaved respectfully in front of her, never daring to oppose her requests.
Now, encountering someone who held a differing opinion from her demands unexpectedly touched a warm corner of her heart.
It slightly moved her.
"How about we travel together?"
Lin Chen initially wanted to propose this idea.
He had two reasons; one was to take care of Nangong Xue, and the other was to gather some information from her.
As he was unfamiliar with the Tianyuan Continent and didn’t even know where his beloved girl was, he needed this person beside him to guide him.
"Alright, in that case, let’s go together," Lin Chen said, looking at the girl in front of him with a calm nod.
As they traveled, facing numerous crises along the way, Lin Chen’s cunning strategies and Nangong Xue’s exquisite coordination resolved all the dangers.
Soon, they reached the legendary Tianyuan Continent.
Lin Chen had always heard about the breathtaking beauty of Tianyuan Continent, full of wonderful scenery.
He used to think that such descriptions were exaggerated in books, but seeing it for himself proved they were true.
The magnificent scenery presented before him left him immersed and unable to extricate himself.
As Lin Chen and Nangong Xue traveled, they saw many refugees around them.
They begged along the way, their lives filled with hardship.
Moreover, many were severely wounded, lying on the ground, becoming food for flies.
It was apparent that these people were in tremendous pain and sorrow.
"What on earth is happening? Why are they in such a state?"
Lin Chen had assumed Tianyuan Continent would be a peaceful place, only to find it much worse than he imagined upon arrival.
"It’s just our family that has fallen into such a state."
Nangong Xue, standing beside Lin Chen, spoke with a hint of helplessness in her voice.
The Nangong family once powerful and influential now had declined to its current state.
Even the members of the Nangong family suffered greatly.
Nangong Xue felt deeply guilty about this.
Seeing the fields littered with corpses ahead, Lin Chen felt a nauseating urge in his heart.
This showed how severe the crisis facing the Nangong family was.
"It’s just unfortunate I can’t find the Supreme Life Form now. We had placed all our hope on it."
Lin Chen had thought about telling her multiple times that he was the so-called Supreme Life Form, but held back each time.
Because in his heart, the Supreme Life Form was vital and extraordinarily powerful.
Yet now, his abilities seemed unimpressive, causing him to shake his head in silent lament.
How could he possibly compete with the person beside him?
Even Nangong Xue herself couldn’t claim to be the Supreme Life Form without fearing ridicule.
"I always felt you weren’t just an ordinary person."
Lin Chen was taken aback when Nangong Xue suddenly said this to him, looking up at her after a moment.
"Why did you suddenly say that?"
Nangong Xue smiled slightly without answering.
"Do you have a place to stay?" Nangong Xue asked curiously, looking at the boy in front of her.
Lin Chen shrugged helplessly, smiling and shaking his head.
He truly had no idea where he should go next.
"I really don’t have any leads."
As he had just arrived on this unfamiliar continent, he had no clue where to go for shelter, feeling somewhat helpless.
"How about you come home with me?"
