Chapter 205: Reunion, Looking Exposed!
“Pfft!”
A mouthful of stagnant bl**d was spat out, and the burning sensation in the chest lightened significantly.
When the Eight Treasure Restaurant and the Man in Blue Robes clashed, Chen Shisan had already sustained serious injuries.
He was attacked two more times afterward; although Tianxuan blocked most of the force, he was still hurt even more.
The only reason Chen Shisan could still keep his eyes open was that he was relying on a breath of life within him.
“Jiji!”
Seeing the Treasure Mouse making a commotion beside him, Chen Shisan weakly said, “Stop yelling, I’m not dead yet.”
“If you keep calling, even if I don’t d*e, you’ll annoy me to d*ath.”
Hearing Chen Shisan’s words, the Treasure Mouse instantly closed its mouth.
After calming the noisy Treasure Mouse, Chen Shisan finally had time to observe his surroundings.
At this moment, the sky was drizzling, and the surrounding area was a dense forest that seemed to stretch endlessly.
After looking around, Chen Shisan spoke up, “Xiancha, where is this?”
His voice echoed through the forest, but the expected response didn’t come.
Seeing this, Chen Shisan did not continue to call out but instead stood up with great effort.
The Treasure Mouse suddenly ran to his side; inexplicably kicked to this unfamiliar place during the battle.
With all the circumstances, Chen Shisan knew with a tap of his toes that this was Xiancha’s doing.
After putting in so much effort, if Xiancha would casually respond to him, that would definitely be a ghostly occurrence.
“Treasure Mouse, you are a legendary exotic beast.”
“You must have many amazing abilities, and right now I am severely injured and need Spiritual Medicine to heal.”
“Can you take me to find some?”
“If not, I might really d*e.”
Upon hearing Chen Shisan’s words, the Treasure Mouse pondered for a moment, then turned and ran away.
Halfway through, the Treasure Mouse paused and waved its little paw at Chen Shisan.
It seemed to intend to lead Chen Shisan to find something.
……
After walking to and fro for half an hour.
The Treasure Mouse suddenly stopped in front of a large tree and emitted a sharp cry.
Following the sound, Chen Shisan halted, gripping the True Martial Sword tightly.
Fifty steps away from Chen Shisan, a verdant vine was bathing in the rain.
From its appearance alone, this thing was undoubtedly a rare piece of Spiritual Medicine.
However, the troubling part was that next to this Spiritual Medicine was a ragged, mud-streaked woman—none other than Meng Yu from the Empty Void Heaven.
The disheveled fairy and the severely injured young man met, with the sky drizzling lightly.
For both of them, at their last breaths, encountering each other was definitely not a good omen.
After three breaths of silence, Meng Yu took the initiative to strike.
She raised her “staff” and charged at Chen Shisan, but before she could take two steps, she lost her balance and fell heavily into the muddy water, then lay still on the ground, motionless.
Chen Shisan: “……”
I thought you were formidable, turns out you’re just a paper tiger!
After waiting a while and seeing Meng Yu still unmoving on the ground, Chen Shisan cautiously approached.
After roughly assessing her injuries, he found that Meng Yu’s condition seemed to be worse than his.
Not only had she lost all her cultivation, but many of her bones were also broken.
The most serious was a fracture in her right leg.
A portion of white bone was already protruding from the flesh.
Confirming that Meng Yu was truly in a coma, Chen Shisan began to dig up the verdant vine.
Soon, a piece of head-sized, fragrant yellow essence was unearthed.
Taking the healing Spiritual Medicine, Chen Shisan turned to leave.
However, after taking the tenth step, Chen Shisan stopped.
Looking at the drenched Meng Yu lying in the muddy water, he pondered for a long time.
Ultimately, Chen Shisan fashioned a simple stretcher and carried Meng Yu away.
—
“Crackling!”
Wood splintered in the flames, and the unconscious Meng Yu suddenly sat up.
Looking around, she realized her clothes had disappeared, replaced by a set of faded coarse cloth.
Her wounds had been simply treated, and even the mud on her body had been “washed clean” by someone.
“Did you do this?”
Meng Yu glared at Chen Shisan by the fire pit.
In response, Chen Shisan nodded, “Yes.”
“Come here.”
Chen Shisan instinctively edged closer to Meng Yu.
“Smack!”
A slender five-fingered imprint appeared on Chen Shisan’s left cheek.
“Did you see everything?”
“Yes, I did.”
“Did you touch me?”
“If I didn’t touch you, how could I wash your body?”
“Smack!”
Another five-fingered imprint appeared, this time on his right cheek.
After getting slapped twice, Chen Shisan’s expression remained serious.
“What do you have to say about what happened?”
“If you hit me again, I’ll hit back.”
Looking at Chen Shisan’s earnest expression, the corner of Meng Yu’s mouth finally twitched slightly.
“Go away.”
“Sure.”
Chen Shisan returned to the fire pit, simultaneously pulling out a charred piece of something from the flames.
Peeling away the burnt exterior, Chen Shisan bit into the steaming yellow essence.
“Share half with me, I need to heal.”
“Not giving!”
“If you don’t, I can’t beat you in this state.”
Meng Yu: “……”
Hearing this answer, the calm Meng Yu almost got choked with anger.
You saved me and saw me n*ked!
This is an untold messy account that simply can’t be clarified.
I, Meng Yu, am not someone who disregards reason, nor would I yell and threaten you.
But with this kind of thing happening, as a man, shouldn’t you at least show a bit of responsibility?
Like saying, “I will take responsibility for you.”
Although I would seriously refuse you and not want you to take responsibility, you shouldn’t say nothing at all!
Seeing the yellow essence in Chen Shisan’s hands gradually diminish, Meng Yu’s lips twitched.
“How can you be willing to share?”
“This is mine, if you want it, you have to trade something for it.”
Facing this request, Meng Yu thought for a moment and said, “I’ll teach you a secret technique if you share half the yellow essence with me.”
“Fine.”
Chen Shisan handed over the half-eaten yellow essence.
Glancing at the yellow essence full of teeth marks and then at Chen Shisan’s clear gaze.
Meng Yu knew full well that if she “pretended” for a moment, this young man would definitely take the yellow essence back and eat it all.
Thinking this, Meng Yu promptly took the yellow essence from Chen Shisan’s hand and ate it in big bites.
With the Spiritual Medicine entering her belly, Meng Yu’s internal injuries eased a bit.
However, after finishing the yellow essence, the man and woman fell into silence once again.
After a while, the silent Meng Yu softly said, “Helping me heal is one thing, why did you wash my body?”
“Are you trying to take advantage of me?”
