Chapter 76 He thought, he was starting to get a little obsessed with this feeling.
Li Xiao was so engrossed in the moment that he didn't notice when Yu Qingzhou woke up.
Yu Qingzhou vaguely saw the head buried in his body. The fluffy, silvery-white hair tickled his neck.
His limbs were extremely weak, probably a consequence of blood loss.
Yu Qingzhou's consciousness was still unclear; she only vaguely remembered being attacked, having her sword stolen, and being stabbed through the body...
That shot was supposed to be aimed at his heart.
But for some reason, the other party didn't finish him off; they simply left after that. Perhaps they felt that with such injuries, staying in such a place would either kill them immediately or eventually lead to death from the dense miasma at night.
Then, I must have relied on my last bit of will to survive to get back here, but I finally collapsed from exhaustion when I was still a dozen meters away from the cave.
I thought this time I might never come back.
Unexpectedly, I actually had the chance to open my eyes again.
Just as Yu Qingzhou was lost in thought, a sudden pain in his chest pulled him back to reality.
Yu Qingzhou couldn't help but frown and look at the boy lying on top of her again, suddenly realizing that something was wrong!
At this moment, his arms and legs were pinned down and he couldn't move. His clothes had been torn loosely at some point, and his shirt was even pulled up to his elbows, hanging halfway down, exposing half of his shoulder and his entire arm in a chilly way...
Even worse, there was an unusual sensation coming from below the collarbone, a painful, tingling tingling sensation, and a burning feeling as warm breath was constantly sprayed on the skin.
I was licked...
She was pinned down and licked by a boy she had only recently met, who was biting and nibbling at her...
Yu Qingzhou's jaw tightened, and at the same time, she felt a buzzing in her head, as if the little bit of hot blood in her body rushed to her face.
Yu Qingzhou almost immediately wanted to push the other person away and sit up, but he overestimated his physical strength at this moment.
A person who is seriously injured and bleeding heavily, and has just woken up from a coma, obviously does not have that much strength. What he thought was a full-force attack was nothing more than a kitten scratching its claws to Li Xiao, who was immersed in the sweet taste of blood.
"Li...Xiao!"
Yu Qingzhou finally couldn't bear it any longer and called out Li Xiao's name. Due to the dryness in his throat, his voice was a little hoarse than usual, and it didn't have the intimidating aura he had expected.
The boy seemed to hear her, and his mouth paused for a moment, but only for a second. Yu Qingzhou felt the tingling, wet, and warm licking and biting return, and it seemed to be moving further down...
At the same time, Yu Qingzhou felt an unusual shape rubbing against his side of his leg, seemingly unintentionally. As a man himself, he couldn't possibly not know what it was.
Yu Qingzhou suddenly felt a darkness before her eyes.
Almost instinctively, he bent his knee with all his might and rammed into it.
His response was a low whimper, like that of a teenage puppy.
Then, as the force on her loosened, Yu Qingzhou rolled to the side. A tearing pain shot through her shoulder; the wound had probably reopened.
But Yu Qingzhou couldn't care less about any of that.
He breathed slowly, struggling to stand up against the stone wall beside him, and looked at the boy who was lying on the ground, bowing and sobbing. His gaze was as if he were looking at a dead man.
If only he had any spare strength left...
—It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!
Li Xiao gasped for breath and curled up like a quail.
It hurts so much.
Tears streamed down my face.
One moment you're feeling happy, as if you're flying to the clouds, and the next you're in the agonizing abyss of hell.
Li Xiao originally thought that having his hands and feet cut off and his eyes gouged out was already extremely painful.
Unexpectedly, there was something even more exciting...
Li Xiao took a long time to recover, and even despaired, thinking that she would probably never recover in this lifetime.
As it turned out, he was indeed overthinking things.
Just as Li Xiao sat up from the ground, a long sword was already pressed against his neck, radiating a chilling aura.
—This is a metaphor for a light boat.
However, the sword in his hand had been changed to one he had never seen before.
The young man had changed his clothes. Apart from being a little pale, he looked no different from usual, but his eyes seemed serious.
"Um... let's talk this out. Can you put your weapon down first?" Li Xiao asked uncertainly, while giving a somewhat embarrassed smile.
Yu Qingzhou didn't respond, but instead tightened his grip on the sword.
Li Xiao felt a chill on her neck, followed by warm liquid that trickled down her neck.
The boy's smile faltered slightly, then he frowned and stared intently at Yu Qingzhou with his remaining eye, as if seeking an answer from that expressionless face.
"Are you... really going to kill me?" Li Xiao asked.
Yu Qingzhou's pale lips parted, and she uttered cold words, one by one: "I just regret not making a move sooner. I shouldn't have kept you around until now."
"Why?" Li Xiao pressed on.
This question seemed to remind Yu Qingzhou of something unpleasant. The young man paused for a moment before saying seriously, "There's no reason why. Since you are a demon, you should be killed."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiao smiled slowly. His eyes were deep and dark, and there were still traces of blood on his lips.
—That was Yu Qingzhou's own blood.
Just thinking about how the other person got that stuff made Yu Qingzhou feel uneasy... He could still feel that warm, sticky sensation lingering on his skin, refusing to leave.
Yu Qingzhou wasn't a germaphobe, but after being around his senior sister for so many years, he had become accustomed to keeping his distance from others.
Even with someone as close as my senior sister, we only held hands when we were little, and briefly touched each other's cheeks and foreheads.
Therefore, even knowing that the boy was probably only acting out of the instinct of a demon to feed on flesh and blood, Yu Qingzhou still felt strongly offended.
It even made him feel genuinely panicked for a moment.
Yu Qingzhou hated this feeling.
This feeling of being out of control, unable to control oneself.
It shouldn't have happened to him.
so……
so……
Just kill the other party, kill the source of all this.
Then act as if nothing has happened.
All we need to do is follow the original plan and bring the jade pendant back to our sect.
Just as Yu Qingzhou made up her mind to kill the other party, she suddenly heard the boy's slightly mocking laughter: "So, you think demons should be killed?"
He paused, then continued, "Is it just you who is like this, or are all of you humans so unable to distinguish right from wrong and so ungrateful?"
"What makes you say that?" Yu Qingzhou asked with a frown, without loosening his grip on the sword.
"You ask me why I say this?" Li Xiao looked up and smiled innocently. He stretched out a hand, and his fair fingertips slowly touched the sharp blade at his neck, as if it were a part of the body of his beloved.
"Why don't you ask yourself why you're holding such a dangerous thing to the throat of your savior?" As he spoke, the boy even pushed his own neck forward against the blade.
That was undoubtedly a sharp sword.
The small wound that had been made earlier suddenly split into a long gash, and bright red blood gushed out, looking extremely glaring.
A faint image flashed through my mind: under the crimson moonlight, a boy hurriedly ran over, then bent down to support me as I struggled to move forward.
Yu Qingzhou eventually looked away and put the longsword back in her hand.
"What, now that there's a demon, you're not going to kill it?" Li Xiao said, his face pale. The boy was already fair-skinned, but now he looked utterly ashen, devoid of any color.
Yu Qingzhou tossed him the gauze and medicine bottle, saying calmly, "If you insist on courting death, I can grant your wish."
Li Xiao looked at those things, then at the indifferent-looking young man, and suddenly became happy.
He said in a light tone, "No need for death. Just bandage my wounds, and we'll consider the past forgotten."
Yu Qingzhou wanted to say something more.
But when he saw the boy clutching the wound on his neck, his hands already covered in blood, yet still turning his head to smile at him, he couldn't help but stop talking.
--never mind.
He said to himself.
It was like a silent sigh.
At that time, Yu Qingzhou had no idea that there would be countless similar moments in his future interactions with the boy in front of him.
And this is just the beginning.
They retreated again and again until there was nowhere left to retreat to.
Until... it became impossible to tell who owed more.
Yu Qingzhou would never know.
At this moment, Li Xiao was completely kept in the dark.
The boy stared at Yu Qingzhou, who, though reluctant, had ultimately relented and leaned towards him with the gauze. A surge of triumphant joy welled up within him.
He thought he was starting to get a little obsessed with the feeling.
He wanted this person to always be by his side... right in front of him.
