Chapter 364: You're such a silly little thing.
Yu Muhan smiled bitterly. She raised her hands, which were now completely clean, and said softly, "Even now, I can still feel the strong smell of blood on my hands. No matter how much I wash them, I can't get rid of it."
"But if you hadn't chosen to fight back, you would have been the one injured or even killed." Ye Fei understood that she was still not used to actually hurting someone, so she comforted her, "Don't feel guilty. The attack techniques Rong Yu taught you are for use in situations like this, aren't they?"
Yu Muhan turned to look at the girl in front of him and suddenly smiled: "What supported me to stand up and fight back was not the attack techniques that Rong Yu taught me, but you, Xiao Fei."
Ye Fei blinked: "Me?"
"Because you acknowledged my existence."
Yu Muhan's clear eyes reflected Ye Fei's face, and she smiled slightly: "Before the start of the Training Month, you gave me so much special training, and you were the only one who stayed by my side... I don't want to disappoint you."
“After you went missing, I was told that your life was in danger. I was afraid that you would just disappear... So I told myself that I must not die, I must live and wait for you to come back.”
Ye Fei felt a pang of emotion, never expecting that it was because of him that this girl had made such a big change.
Her gaze lingered on the light in Yu Muhan's eyes, and then she smiled and said, "It seems I've done a pretty good job as captain."
"Of course, I only recognize you as the captain."
Yu Muhan shook the water droplets off his hands and tilted his head to look at her: "I'm all washed up, shall we go back together?"
She didn't ask Ye Fei what she had experienced during her disappearance.
For her, as long as Ye Fei is safe and sound, that's enough.
...
Ye Fei and the others planned to rest here for a while before continuing their journey tomorrow.
After nightfall, while everyone was resting and recuperating, Ye Fei quietly pulled Li Yuan into a small grove of trees.
"What's wrong?" Li Yuan couldn't help but find her sneaky behavior amusing, and reached out to pinch her cheek.
Ye Fei immediately took out the Ice Bone Spirit Ginseng and placed it in his palm: "Here you go!"
Li Yuan looked down and saw that the Ice Bone Spirit Ginseng in his palm was very cold, and he could even feel a faint chill wrapped around his wrist.
"This is... Ice Bone Spirit Ginseng?" Li Yuan, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, recognized the item in his hand at a glance.
Ye Fei nodded with a grin: "That's right! Lian told me that there are some extremely cold things in this world that, while they can't completely eliminate the fire poison, can alleviate its side effects. With these, you can at least stay conscious."
"This Ice Bone Spirit Ginseng has grown for at least six thousand years. Even the Fufeng Spring of the Qiuyu Ancestor may not have such a medicinal material. Where did you find it?" Li Yuan asked with some surprise.
"The process isn't important; what's important is that I helped you." Ye Fei raised her small face and looked intently into the boy's eyes.
Li Yuan pursed his thin lips. Such a rare thing was hard to come by in the world. Even if she didn't want to say it, he could understand the hardships involved.
After staring at her for a moment, Li Yuan said in a low voice, "You're such a silly girl."
His deep voice was extremely pleasant to the ear, like the faint sound of a zither coming from behind the clouds in the night.
Ye Fei was still eagerly anticipating some compliments from the boy, but instead, she was met with the cursing, "Silly girl!" She immediately felt a little indignant: "What do you mean? This is... um..."
She never had the chance to say anything more, because it was all swallowed up by his passionate kisses, lost in a state of blissful infatuation.
