Chapter 755: Physical Examination
Thinking back to the nights of nightmares, waking up to find Xia Hanmo beside him, comforting him. In the Lin family, she was the one who cared for him the most.
During the days of fleeing, he often woke up from nightmares, alone and gradually became accustomed to the solitude.
Now, with long-lost companionship and comfort, it was just his female disciple, and Lin Nuo’s feelings were somewhat complicated.
Gradually, he found people who cared for him, whether in the righteous path or in the demonic way.
Even the ruthless Ling Meng showed a pure feminine side in front of Lin Nuo, stepping into the role of a wife, eager to share the burdens with him.
“Having nightmares is normal. Alright, sleep now. Here, you need to replenish your energy and rest well.”
“Okay, Master. Get some rest early. If you have anything on your mind, please share it with me. Understanding my Master is also something a disciple should do.”
“It’s nothing. Just rest.”
Lin Nuo gently stroked Ling Meng’s hair as she leaned against his chest, wrapped in wolf fur, feeling warm, her drowsy eyes gradually shutting.
Though it was time to sleep, he found it difficult to fall asleep.
It had been a long time since he last had such nightmares; after his rebirth, those scenes had not reappeared.
He had saved Liu Shuqin in this lifetime, so that scene no longer haunted him.
So much had changed; he would not be the same as before.
The firewood in front was gradually dimming and about to extinguish, but not wanting to disturb Ling Meng, he refrained from adding more, letting it die out.
Soon, the flames were out, leaving only some red-hot embers still glowing.
Lin Nuo remained still, lost in thought, recalling the time when he was wandering alone in the wild, as night fell and darkness spread, seeking shelter in a cave, near the firelight, enjoying delicious meat, and sleeping when sleepiness struck.
Alone again.
Now, he had the company of his female disciple, Ling Meng.
Not bad at all.
He was quite willing to accept this female disciple, having no grudges against her, plus she listened attentively to his words. As for scheming, there was some, but only aimed at the evil followers of the Refining Demon Sect; she was honest with him.
Yes, honest, not just in words but even in body, she seemed eager to entangle with him in the most meticulous way.
But he couldn’t go too far with her; sometimes she was just too crazy. If he started down that path, she would probably insist on it every day.
Lost in thoughts about the matters of demonic descent and the enmity with the Immortal Sect…
…
As the night passed, dawn broke, but the mist in the Demon Abyss Valley remained dense, lacking that cheerful feel of a bright morning.
In the mountain forest, the air was clear early in the morning, but in the Demon Abyss Valley, the thick mist dampened one’s spirits.
Last night, the demon beasts didn’t trouble Lin Nuo and the others. After all, he had attached the exorcism talisman, causing the demons to feel averse and keep their distance.
This is a basic survival skill in the wild. One must know how to fend off wild beasts at night; otherwise, waking up to find oneself surrounded would lead to disaster.
“Master, what are we doing today?”
“Continue to the center of the Demon Abyss Valley.”
“Okay, I’ll follow your lead. Just give me any orders.”
“By the way, there’s something you need to do first—take off your clothes.”
“Ah? Master, is this your idea of a morning wake-up call? Well, alright, I’ll surely satisfy you.”
“No. What are you thinking? I just want to check your body.”
Lin Nuo said seriously.
“Master, there’s really no need for such excuses. I see that the wicked from the underworld and the Refining Demon Sect use the pretense of ‘checking bodies’ to target innocent girls. Master, I’m yours. We’re being honest, so no need for this excuse. Just say it, and I’ll let you see as much as you want, but Master, you have to let me see too.”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Lin Nuo patted Ling Meng’s head. This female disciple is really chatty today.
“Master, come on, why not be honest? What’s there to be shy about? Well, this also shows I’m already yours.”
Ling Meng loosened her belt without any embarrassment, facing Lin Nuo as she removed her clothes.
Lin Nuo didn’t shy away either; there was nothing to hide. They had been to the hot spring together, so he had seen her body.
Of course, he had been seen too. Although he wanted to cover up, it was impossible.
“Don’t move.”
Lin Nuo examined Ling Meng. He couldn’t help but notice how well-developed she was—gracefully curvaceous, fair-skinned, and extremely charming.
“Master, you’re not undressing? I feel quite embarrassed. Why don’t you join me? Let’s be honest with each other.”
“Shut up and don’t move.”
Lin Nuo circled around Ling Meng, his hand touching her arm gently, stroking and pinching.
Though her hand appeared delicate, it contained impressive strength, even stronger than last night.
Soon, he moved on to check her shoulder, waist, legs, etc. It was indeed a body check, as he had done the previous night, to see how her condition had improved after the recent burst of power.
As expected, her physical condition had indeed improved, but unlike a man with well-defined muscles, her body remained graceful and soft.
This explosive potential was impressive; not only had she gained strength, but her feminine figure had also become more alluring.
How enviable, to gain both strength and shape.
“Alright, get dressed.”
Lin Nuo handed her the clothes, signaling her to put them on.
“Wait, Master, is that it? You just touched a bit? That’s too perfunctory. Is there something wrong with my body?”
“Your body looks great, very pleasing to the eye.”
“Then why not do something a bit more excessive? Oh, this touching is excessive enough for me!”
Ling Meng pouted in anger, standing there bare. Just a few touches made her this upset? It felt like she was being belittled.
“No, I just wanted to check your body condition to see how you were recovering. You’re doing well, fully recovered, even improved.”
“Then I want to check your body too, Master.”
“I don’t need a check.”
“Yes, you do!”
Ling Meng grabbed the clothes Lin Nuo offered, then seized his hand with a mighty pull, dragging him over.
Lin Nuo reacted quickly, immediately executing his retracting skills, slipping his hand away, creating distance between them.
Ling Meng chased after Lin Nuo, but how could she catch the fleeing little prince? After a while, she gave up the chase, frustration bubbling inside.
“Hmph, Master, you’re too wicked! You drive me crazy.”
“Put on your clothes and get ready to hit the road. Don’t let the demons see you naked.”
“Does that mean you’re worried about me, Master?”
“Yes. Only I can look at you.”
“Hmm…”
Ling Meng wanted to be angry but couldn’t quite manage it.
Oh well, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. Next time, she would definitely undress him herself.
After putting on her clothes, Ling Meng followed Lin Nuo out. They navigated towards the center of the Demon Abyss Valley and suddenly encountered a fork in the road, where they spotted a shadow in front of Lin Nuo.
It shot a magic projectile at Lin Nuo, but the power was weak, getting blocked by Ling Meng, and then it slipped down one of the paths at the fork.
“Master, it attacked us. Should we pursue it?”
“It’s a fool. Ignore it and take the other path.”
