It’s Mu Yunshang.
Mu Yunshang stood in front of Duan Chengxian... or more precisely, in front of Sheng Shijing.
A light blush appeared on her delicate fair face. She lowered her eyes slightly, not daring to look at Sheng Shijing. She wanted to speak, but before she opened her mouth, she remembered the women who had tried to get close to Sheng Shijing in the past but ended up in disgrace. Her face suddenly turned pale.
But he still gritted his teeth and raised his head, trying his best to look calm and said, "Master Hengzhi, may I ask for a favor?"
Sheng Shijing: "Get lost."
Mu Yunshang's face turned even paler, and her pearly teeth were deeply embedded in her lower lip.
He suppressed his embarrassment and continued, "If I'm not mistaken, Master Hengzhi should be injured, right?"
Sheng Shijing's already stern expression turned even colder, and he said coldly, "Get lost."
A faint cold and murderous aura permeated his body, and he was ready to attack at the slightest disagreement.
Regardless of what Mu Yunshang was thinking, Duan Chengxian was frightened to death. He immediately slapped Sheng Shijing on the arm and pulled him behind him.
He lowered his voice and threatened, "If you continue to mess around, I'll come back and complain!!"
You know what, this trick really works.
Sheng Shijing's expression froze slightly, and he slowly suppressed the evil spirit surging in his body.
The surroundings returned to peace.
Duan Chengxian breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he thought of another thing.
After giving Sheng Shijing another warning look, Duan Chengxian's gaze fell on Mu Yunshang and asked, "What did you mean by that just now?"
At that moment, Sheng Shijing's murderous intent was so cold and fierce that Mu Yunshang broke out in a cold sweat. She couldn't even react immediately to Duan Chengxian's question. It was not until Mu Changhe couldn't help but remind her that she woke up from her dream.
He gritted his teeth and pulled out a jade bottle from his bag. He presented it to Duan Chengxian with both hands and said, "This is my Mu family's unique Qi-restoring pill. Although it has no healing effect, it is very effective in restoring ancient martial arts strength. I..."
He quickly glanced at Sheng Shijing and continued, "I want to use this bottle of Qi-recovering pill to exchange for the opportunity to enter the cave and rest."
Mu Changhe immediately stepped forward and said earnestly, "Don't worry, Mr. Duan. We are just looking for a place to rest for a while. We will definitely not disturb you and Master Hengzhi."
Duan Chengxian lowered his eyes and pondered.
Of course he had heard of the Mu family's Qi-recovering pills, and they were indeed very effective, even for ancient warriors of his level.
It has to be said that the deal proposed by Mu Yunshang hit the mark.
In the current situation, any more strength he could recover would mean more power to protect himself. He and Sheng Shijing really needed such an ancient pill.
"Okay." Duan Chengxian was not a man of hesitation, so he made the decision immediately. While taking the jade bottle from Mu Yunshang, he pointed in the direction of the cave entrance and said, "You guys rest over there."
After he finished speaking, he pulled Sheng Shijing back into the cave and stopped only when they reached the innermost part.
Duan Chengxian thought that it would take some effort to persuade Sheng Shijing, but he didn't expect that he didn't say anything and just sat down in his previous seat.
Duan Chengxian was extremely surprised and tentatively raised the Qi-recovering pill in front of him.
Sheng Shijing glanced at him coldly, raised his hand to snatch the jade bottle from his hand, and pushed open the cork with his thumb.
Before Duan Chengxian could react to what he meant, he felt a pain in his cheek.
When the Mu and Xiao families finished their conversation and entered the cave, they saw Sheng Shijing holding Duan Chengxian's cheeks with one hand and pouring the ancient pill into Duan Chengxian's mouth with a jade bottle in the other hand.
A total of ten Qi-recovering pills!
He poured it all into Duan Chengxian's mouth, almost choking him to death!
After finally swallowing it, he immediately started coughing violently.
Duan Chengxian coughed and cursed, "You're murdering my teacher! Sheng, you don't want to be a human being anymore, right? Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"
Sheng Shijing's expression remained normal: "Just as you wish."
Duan Chengxian: “…”
That's true, but can't we be gentler and feed them one by one?
Duan Chengxian kept muttering to himself, but Sheng Shijing ignored him and didn't even spare him a glance. After drinking the ancient pill, he continued to close his eyes and regulate his breathing.
Duan Chengxian cursed for a long time but got no response. Just then, the Qi-recovering pill took effect, so he sat down next to Sheng Shijing and closed his eyes to regulate his breathing.
He looked as if he was alone, but when he saw Mu Changhe and the others paused, they couldn't help but exchange glances.
Could it be that they guessed wrong, and these two people were not injured or in a weak state as they thought?
Otherwise, if they had all come in, how could they dare to practice breathing exercises so defenselessly?
Everyone became more cautious and sat down obediently near the cave entrance.
The restriction was closed again, and a guard took out a flame stone to release the heat inside, and the cave soon became warm.
Xiao Lingfeng's gaze always stayed on Mu Yunshang, and he naturally would not miss her occasional subtle glances towards Sheng Shijing, her eyes were dark.
He subconsciously tightened the sword at his waist.
It took half a day for Sheng Shijing to complete two rounds of breathing exercises.
After taking a quick look, he stood up and walked straight out of the cave.
There was still endless darkness outside the cave, but this darkness was not worth mentioning in the eyes of ancient martial artists like Sheng Shijing.
He stood on a huge rock not far from the cave, and all he could see was the endless frost and snow, with the faint shadow of a polar white wolf leaping around.
Sheng Shijing looked at an unknown place, and in a daze he seemed to see the figure that had been haunting him, but the figure disappeared in the next moment.
Sheng Shijing stared blankly at the cliff below for a long time, then raised his hand and rubbed his temples.
It turns out that I missed her so much that I even had hallucinations.
Even if she really came to the polar regions as he expected, it would be impossible for her to find this place so quickly.
He knew his girl too well.
Although it seems cold and deserted, it is actually the most loyal.
Especially to Mr. Xie.
If he were to go missing, Xie Xihe would certainly come to look for him, but he would also make sure to arrange matters at home first, so that Mr. Xie could rest assured before going out.
The earliest time will be after the college entrance examination.
It would take at least ten days from Kyoto to the Pole, plus the time to gather information and determine the location, for her to find this place.
It's only the eighth day, there's no way she would be here at this time.
The cold air rushed into his lungs. Sheng Shijing looked into the distance again and finally turned around and walked back.
But the moment he turned around, he met a pair of eyes full of hostility.
Sheng Shijing's eyebrows moved slightly, and the corners of his lips curled up in a cold arc: "Young Master Xiao has followed me all the way, and finally decided to come out?"
