Yu Chenming listened with a frown on his face, speaking faster, "Rarely doesn't mean never. Think about it again!"
He lowered his eyes to look at the person trapped on the bed, quickly went to get some water, and then used a silk handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of Sheng Wu's lips.
Phoenix had no choice but to agree, "Okay, then I'll check the scrolls of the Phoenix Clan to see if there's anything I can try. For now, Master, you can only watch her and use some high-grade elixirs to replenish her body."
Yu Chenming responded calmly, "Go quickly."
Then the Phoenix fell silent, and the room was silent.
Yu Chenming sat on the edge of the bed, his complicated eyes falling on Sheng Wu's beautiful face. He raised his hand to brush away a strand of hair from her forehead and looked at her slightly furrowed brows.
His cold eyes couldn't help but be filled with worry and doubt. Why was she so nice to him?
She practices the way of ruthlessness, so would she really be so devoted to a disciple she took in?
But he no longer had the system, so logically speaking, there was nothing worthy of Sheng Wu's attention...
Looking at the pale-faced woman in front of him, Yu Chenming's heart suddenly moved. He slowly raised his hand and reached towards Sheng Wu's face as if possessed by a ghost.
That stunning look is something no one can forget.
"?!"etc!
But when he was about to touch it, Yu Chenming's eyes moved, and he instantly came to his senses and immediately withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted.
Stand up and take a step back.
What was he thinking, she was the Master!
She gave him freedom and allowed him to have a master who lived in Piaomiao Mountain. Before, he had to conquer her because of the coercion of the system, but now, he!
[Ding! Male protagonist's favorability, 55!]
Although he felt conflicted and disgusted with himself in his heart, his favorability towards him still increased despite his hypocritical attitude.
Sheng Wu looked at it with great amusement.
Finally, Yu Chenming took a deep breath and fed his best pill to Sheng Wu. Then he took a deep look, left the room and stood guard in the outer room.
And after he left, Sheng Wu turned over, moved her fingertips, collected the evil spirit that ate human hearts into the space, and then went to sleep peacefully.
......
The second day.
Sheng Wu got up and went to bed. As soon as she walked around the screen, she saw Yu Chenming sleeping at the table.
She walked over slowly and held out her hand.
"Pa!" A palm hit him on the head, quite loudly.
"......"?! Start fast, then slow down.
Yu Chenming woke up after hearing the footsteps, but just kept moving, curious about what Sheng Wu would do.
Well, he was overthinking it. The master was as cold-blooded and ruthless as ever.
Yu Chenming was afraid that Sheng Wu would slap him again, not on the head but on the face, so he stopped pretending to be asleep and got up immediately, looking like he had just woken up.
"Master."
He didn't mention the sudden "care" just now, and consciously avoided embarrassing himself.
Hearing him subconsciously calling her Master, Sheng Wu did not correct him again, but just looked at him indifferently and spoke coldly.
"Was there anything unusual about me last night?"
She, who usually had a cold expression, frowned slightly, and there was something else in her eyes.
He seems worried, yet he doesn't care.
Yu Chenming, noticing her expression, raised his eyebrows slightly and answered truthfully.
"He vomited blood and passed out. Nothing else happened."
Hearing this, Sheng Wu's brows relaxed, and without saying a word, she raised her eyes coldly and turned sideways, as if to leave.
“Master!”
Yu Chenming's face turned stern. He suddenly stood up and stood in front of Sheng Wu.
"How dare you stop me."
Sheng Wu raised her eyes coldly, and her words were filled with the chill of being disobeyed.
"Disciple dare not."
Yu Chenming had no choice but to apologize immediately before slowly asking, "Disciple just wants to ask Master, what price did you pay for removing my system five years ago?"
Sheng Wu sneered and looked at him indifferently, her cold eyes revealing sarcasm.
"Why, do you think I would risk doing something stupid just for you? After not seeing you for a few years, you think much more highly of me."
“…”
These humiliating words made Yu Chenming's face tighten, and the hopeful look in his eyes suddenly disappeared. Was he overthinking it?
Didn't Sheng Wu really suffer backlash injuries from this?!
[Ding, the male protagonist's favorability is 40! ]
After saying that, Sheng Wu said nothing more, just opened the door and walked out.
Yu Chenming was watching her leaving from behind, his eyes changing complexly several times, and his fingers under his sleeves tightened again and again.
So he was just being sentimental?
But when he was hesitating about whether to chase after her, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the Fireworks Building.
"What a beautiful woman! Come here, I want her, send her to my house immediately!"
"Bullshit, if you want to give something away, send it to my palace!"
"Hey, how come I didn't know when this girl appeared in the fireworks building? Was she just sold in?"
Hearing this, Yu Chenming knew who those people were talking about without even thinking about it. He didn't care about the cold reception he had received just now and rushed out without hesitation.
Sure enough, when he went out, he saw Sheng Wu being stopped by a group of princes and nobles who had just gotten drunk in a brothel early in the morning and were about to leave.
This is a mortal kingdom, so naturally the princes and nobles are the most important, and those people did not realize that Sheng Wu was an immortal cultivator.
After all, when one's cultivation reaches a certain level, one can make everyone ignore one's existence.
Sheng Wu was wearing a light purple brocade dress with gold gilding, and her hair was tied up with a jade hairpin. Everyone was amazed at her appearance, so no one noticed the pair of bare feet floating in the air under her skirt.
She raised her cold and beautiful eyes slightly, but before she could kill everyone, she heard Yu Chenming coming out to stop her.
"stop!"
Therefore, Sheng Wu also stood there deliberately without saying anything.
