"What are you looking at? Oh, I finally understand. So you've always liked me. The reason you used to argue with me so often was to get my attention." Zu'an thought of the innocent love between elementary school students in his past life. Whoever liked whom couldn't help but tease the other. He analyzed it naturally.
Qiao Xueying: "..."
Qiao Xueying's anger level has increased by 999!
“Forget it, we’re both going to die anyway, so I won’t hold it against you,” Zuan sighed. “Don’t worry, even if I meet Chuyan again on the road to the underworld, I won’t tell her what you did to me.”
Qiao Xueying: "..."
Anger level from Qiao Xueying +1024!
Seeing that he wanted to say something more, Qiao Xueying finally exploded: "Have you said enough?"
"If you really want me to talk, I could go on for three days and three nights and still not finish. Sigh, who can blame me for being given such an outstanding mouth by God? Even you can't help but want to kiss me." Zu'an said, touching his lips as he spoke.
Qiao Xueying: "..."
Anger level from Qiao Xueying +1024!
She was about to go crazy. This guy was a complete oddball. She had just been bewitched and had some crazy thoughts about him.
Taking a deep breath, she scoffed, "Don't you feel any changes in your body?"
"Changes? What could possibly change... Huh?" Zu An raised his hand, then suddenly paused, realizing that his injuries were almost completely healed, and even his vital energy had been fully restored. "What... what's going on?"
Even with his usually oblivious nature, he was completely bewildered.
“I just used our clan’s secret technique on you—‘Half a Lifetime’s Bond’. From now on, you will have half of my lifespan and vitality. As for healing your injuries, that was just a side effect,” Qiao Xueying explained.
"I only have half your lifespan and vitality?" Zuan jumped up immediately. "What grudge do you hold against me that you would do such a thing to me? I was supposed to live to be a hundred years old, but now I only have half your lifespan?"
Qiao Xueying: "..."
Zuan sighed: "Fine, you did it to save me, after all, it's better than dying right away. If it's only half, then it's only half."
Qiao Xueying gritted her teeth and looked at him: "Do you know how long my original lifespan was?"
Zuan looked her over and said, "Judging from your arched eyebrows and small mouth, you don't seem like a blessed person. You probably won't live much longer, maybe seventy or eighty at most."
Qiao Xueying said resentfully, "Under normal circumstances, I could live to be at least 1,500 years old. Now that I've given you half, you're still complaining that it's not enough?"
Zuan was stunned: "How old? Fifteen hundred years old?"
Qiao Xueying snorted and turned her face away: "That's the minimum. As my cultivation deepens, breaking through to two thousand years old is not impossible."
"How could a person live that long..." Zuan suddenly realized something, "You're not human?"
"Who told you I'm human?" Qiao Xueying rolled her eyes. "I just grew up in the human world."
"So what race are you? Dragon girl, fox spirit?" Zuan guessed as he ran behind her and lifted her skirt to look.
Qiao Xueying was both embarrassed and angry, and hurriedly pressed her skirt down again: "What are you doing?"
"Let me see if you have a tail growing from your butt," Zuan replied seriously.
Qiao Xueying: "..."
Seeing her clutching her skirt tightly, Zu An, still not satisfied, asked, "By the way, what is your true form? You often conjure up vines before, you wouldn't happen to be a tree spirit, would you?"
In his mind, tree demons were all those old hags who forced Nie Xiaoqian to do things, and were really not good characters.
"You're the tree demon, your whole family are tree demons!" Qiao Xueying couldn't help but curse.
"Then what exactly are you?" Zuan became increasingly curious.
"I'm not telling you." Qiao Xueying's gaze fell on the two gun barrels stuck in his arm, and her heart softened. She continued, "Knowing my identity will not do you any good; it will only bring endless trouble."
"Alright, alright, I won't say then." Zu An muttered, and seeing that the terracotta warriors were only a few feet away from the two of them, he pulled out the spearhead from his hand and then charged towards them with Qiao Xueying.
Now that Qiao Xueying has healed his injuries, he has been fully recovered in a way. Although he no longer has the berserk buff from the Phoenix Rebirth Sutra, he doesn't have to be so worried when fighting anymore.
Of course, because he was not as fast as before, even with the Sunflower Illusion technique, it was difficult to dodge the attacks of so many terracotta warriors. Although he killed some more, after a while, he was still covered in bruises.
He found an opportunity to break free from the terracotta warriors' encirclement, and then, under Qiao Xueying's questioning gaze, he cupped her face and kissed her again.
"Ugh~" Qiao Xueying finally managed to break free, and slapped him in a mix of embarrassment and anger, "What are you doing!"
"It's nothing. I just kissed you and I'm fully recovered. I was thinking if I kissed you a few more times, my injuries would heal again, right?" Zuan wondered why it didn't work this time. Was it because the kisses weren't long enough?
"You wish!" Qiao Xueying blushed and scolded, "'Half a Lifetime's Fate' is the most precious forbidden technique of our clan, which can only be activated once in a lifetime!"
"Only once in a lifetime?" Zuan was taken aback. "You gave me the most precious thing in your life?"
Qiao Xueying blushed and turned her face away: "I just don't want to die here, don't overthink it."
"That's such a flimsy excuse. You looked like you had no will to live just a moment ago," Zuan muttered.
