When Pei Zhi regained consciousness, she saw a pair of affectionate eyes.
The owner of those eyes was none other than Zhong Changyuan.
Pei Zhi asked in confusion, "Master?"
Zhong Changyuan asked gently, "Are you feeling better?"
Pei Zhi moved her body a little and it seemed that the pain had indeed subsided.
Pei Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, "Much better."
Why didn't you tell your master about Wan Kui threatening you?
Pei Zhi paused for a moment, then asked, "Master, how did you know?"
How could you be so foolish?
Pei Zhi: "..."
Pei Zhi suddenly felt something was wrong. No, what happened while she was unconscious? It seemed like Zhong Changyuan had been possessed.
"Why would someone go to such lengths for their teacher?"
Pei Zhi remained silent. Was it for Zhong Changyuan?
No, it's a misunderstanding, a real misunderstanding.
Pei Zhizhen wasn't doing it for Zhong Changyuan.
If Pei Zhi wants to complete her mission, she cannot kill Zhong Changyuan.
Once Zhong Changyuan dies and Sikong Ren is weakened by the ancient tree's absorption of his energy, wouldn't Wan Kui be able to become king and dominate the land?
Pei Zhi had already made her plans when she made the deal with Wan Kui.
She wants to abolish her cultivation; if all else fails, she can become a demon for once, and it won't cause any problems.
"You did it, and you didn't even let your teacher know? How could someone be so foolish as you?"
Seeing that Zhong Changyuan was deeply moved, Pei Zhi couldn't let him remain so.
“Master, you’re overthinking it. I just don’t want to be threatened by Wan Kui.”
Pei Zhiyi said righteously, "Moreover, with your cultivation level, Master, even if I wanted to get close to you, I couldn't."
Pei Zhi only hoped that Zhong Changyuan wouldn't make wild assumptions.
Pei Zhi really didn't want to hurt Zhong Changyuan anymore.
In this world, Pei Zhi only wanted a simple master-disciple relationship with Zhong Changyuan.
"How could there be no chance to get close to me? Isn't that day of the month coming soon?"
Pei Zhi didn't know how to explain: "I..."
"If you're too embarrassed to speak, then don't say anything. Your teacher understands."
You know what you're talking about. Did Zhong Changyuan get struck by lightning?
Zhong Changyuan pulled the blanket up to cover Pei Zhi: "You are weak right now, so rest well. I will look through some ancient books to see if there is any way to strengthen your body."
"Wait a moment."
"Alright." Zhong Changyuan gently stroked Pei Zhi's head. "You need to rest now. As for the rest, I will understand even if you don't say anything."
What do you know? You think you understand?
Are you some kind of expert?
Pei Zhi exclaimed that things were about to end, and Zhong Changyuan had obviously imagined something he shouldn't have.
No, she had to find a way to make the antidote quickly.
Unfortunately, although she no longer feels pain, her current body is extremely weak, just as Zhong Changyuan said, and it will probably take a long time to recover.
In the end, it all comes down to that damned Wan Kui.
Damn it, once she recovers, she'll definitely get her revenge.
Pei Tianming kept Pei Zhi's transformation into a cripple a secret from everyone.
Not many people knew about it, except for Zhong Changyuan, Gao Shijie and others.
During the days that Pei Zhi was recuperating, Gao Shijie came to visit her every day.
To amuse Pei Zhi, get her some storybooks, or go down the mountain to get some delicious food.
But each time, Gao Shijie could not stay for too long.
Gao Shijie wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but every time he saw Zhong Changyuan and Pei Zhi interacting, it seemed really strange.
For example, he was chatting with Pei Zhi in the courtyard when Uncle Zhong came over with an outer robe and personally draped it over Pei Zhi's shoulders.
It's not unusual for a master to drape an outer garment over his disciple; it would be better if Uncle Zhong weren't so gentle.
Furthermore, Uncle Zhong personally served Pei Zhi tea and water.
Gao Shijie even witnessed his Uncle Zhong kneeling down to put shoes on Pei Zhi.
This is clearly not a master-disciple relationship.
Gao Shijie could only convince himself that Pei Zhi was injured, and it was perfectly normal for his master, Uncle Zhong, to be a little more concerned about his disciple.
It seems reasonable that he couldn't bear to let his apprentice do things himself and wanted to do everything himself.
As night fell, Pei Zhi experienced an unbearable reaction.
Pei Zhi used to have at least the cultivation level of a Golden Core cultivator, but now she has lost it.
The drug reaction was also more severe.
It wasn't even dark outside yet, but Pei Zhi was already sweating profusely with anxiety.
Zhong Changyuan lifted the curtain and saw this scene.
Pei Zhi's eyes were moist, she bit her pink lips, and her neckline was wide open.
Zhong Changyuan had just realized that Pei Zhi had lost her cultivation, so the drug's effects might be more severe.
He rushed over and, judging from Pei Zhi's appearance, it seemed that the attack had been going on for some time.
Zhong Changyuan knew how unbearable this medicine was, so he didn't hesitate and pulled Pei Zhi into his arms and held her tightly.
Pei Zhi frantically tore at Zhong Changyuan's clothes with her hands, but Zhong Changyuan did not struggle.
"Hurry up, why can't I tear the clothes?"
Zhong Changyuan held Pei Zhi's hand and taught her to take off his clothes.
"Don't rush, your teacher... I'm afraid I'll hurt you."
Pei Zhi hugged Zhong Changyuan and whimpered, "I feel unwell."
Zhong Changyuan stopped Pei Zhi from being too eager, but he was also afraid of hurting her.
Letting Pei Zhi do it herself is haphazard and lacks any clear method.
Previously, Zhong Changyuan and Pei Zhi did these things, but only once a day each month.
He was forced into a corner by the effects of the drug, and each time, Zhong Changyuan's consciousness became somewhat hazy.
Only today, before the effects of the drug took hold, was he both incredibly clear-headed and incredibly lost.
