In his semi-conscious state, Zuan felt as if his whole body was about to crack open, as if he were in a vast desert with the scorching sun overhead, his body parched and on the verge of dying of thirst.
Suddenly, a spring of sweet water seemed to appear before him. He instinctively ran towards it, wishing he could shove his whole body into it and greedily drink from it.
The Primordial Chaos Sutra within him began to operate automatically, and he felt his body receiving a warm and nourishing sensation, with the pain and discomfort gradually dissipating.
Bi Linglong's eyes were red, and tears streamed down her fair face, but she still held the man on her body with strength, embracing him with her tenderness.
Mi Li shook her head inwardly from a distance. This guy Zu An really doesn't know how to cherish women. He should apologize to the young lady properly when he wakes up.
Just then, a murmur came from afar, and Bi Linglong subconsciously turned her head.
Zhao Ruizhi, who had been lying on the ground, stirred, then struggled to sit up, raising his head blankly and looking around: "Where am I..."
As he spoke, he glanced over in their direction.
Bi Linglong was terrified. Although there was no affection between them and no marital relationship, she was still the Crown Prince's nominal wife. If he saw this scene, even if he was stupid, he would surely understand what had happened.
Just then, a figure flashed by and directly struck his pressure point to make him fall into a deep sleep. Zhao Ruizhi then collapsed softly to the ground.
Bi Linglong examined his body and said in a deep voice, "Xu Fu devoured Zhao Hao's fragmented soul in his body before. His own remnant soul may not have been of any use to Xu Fu, and he was not harmed. So he gradually woke up after so long."
Bi Linglong's body trembled violently. Her heart had almost jumped out of her throat just now. Despite feeling embarrassed, she still asked in a low voice. The only thing she was thankful for was that the other person did not turn around to look at her: "Will he be able to return to normal after this?"
Hearing her voice become unconsciously cloying, Mi Li felt a little uncomfortable, but still replied, "Don't even think about him returning to normal. Because of being possessed, his three souls and six spirits are naturally incomplete, so at most he'll return to his previous silly state, maybe even a little sillier. Besides, he's quite badly injured. Without Zhao Hao's divided soul's support, he might not be able to leave the secret realm alive."
Bi Linglong bit her lip, struggled to pull out a bag of bottles and jars, and threw them over: "Master, could you help him take these medicines?"
Although he had never looked at the Crown Prince properly before, he now felt inexplicably guilty and felt that he had done something to wrong him.
Saving him from his serious injuries was the only thing she could do.
Mi Li vaguely guessed what she was thinking and nodded, "Okay!"
After saying that, he touched Zhao Ruizhi's chin and then poured all the medicine into his mouth.
Given her personality, she naturally wouldn't be able to feed him the medicine gently; she was only doing so because Zuan was being treated.
As she fed the medicine, she asked Bi Linglong, "How are you feeling?"
Bi Linglong's face flushed instantly. She wondered why she had asked such a question, but instinctively, with teary eyes, she answered, "It hurts~"
Mi Li: "???"
She took a deep breath before continuing, "I'm asking how you feel about Zuan's health now, whether it's improved."
Bi Linglong: "..."
She wished she could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it right away.
After a long silence, he finally replied quietly, "His body doesn't seem to be breaking down any further now."
"That's good, you can continue." Mi Li breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Primordial Chaos Scripture was indeed working.
She picked up Zhao Ruizhi and flew out, casually tossing him outside. She didn't go back in herself, but instead sat down at the door to meditate and regulate her breathing.
But thinking about what happened today and the old friends she met along the way, she couldn't calm down.
When Bi Linglong saw that she had taken Zhao Ruizhi away, she knew that she had done it to avoid embarrassing her, and she was filled with gratitude.
However, her thoughts were quickly interrupted by the man's reckless thrusting on top of her. She couldn't help but gently punch his chest: "What a bad guy."
...
She didn't know how much time had passed when Bi Linglong was suddenly startled. She felt as if there was a black hole inside her body, continuously sucking away her life essence.
She instinctively wanted to push the man off her, but then she remembered something and let go of him. Instead, she gently hugged him, murmuring to herself, "Anyway, I don't have many years left to live. As long as I can save you, that's enough."
She thought Mi Li had lied to her, that this kind of healing might require sacrificing one person's life essence to save another. However, looking at her snow-white hair, she thought that since her lifespan had been greatly damaged after using the forbidden technique, it didn't matter if she lived a few more or a few less years. After all, this man had risked his life to save her.
As the other party absorbed her essence, she felt increasingly weak, her skin became dull and even began to shrivel, and her consciousness gradually began to blur.
She thought she was going to die, but to her surprise, not long after, she felt a surge of life essence enter her body. Then her withered meridians began to be nourished and restored, her body became plump again, and her skin was covered with a layer of crystal light. Even her dry and white hair returned to its former state, no, it was even blacker, shinier and smoother than before.
“This is…” Bi Linglong was momentarily lost in thought.
“His cultivation technique is very special, and coupled with his special bloodline, he can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded. Back then, Chu… cough cough, your lifespan loss is naturally not a problem.” Bi Linglong appeared beside her at some point, clearly still a little worried and came to check on the situation.
