The person who had just flashed through her mind suddenly appeared in front of her. Song Tingwan was a little confused. She covered her shoulder, tilted her head slightly, and took a half step back.
His arms were empty, which made Shen Zhuochuan laugh.
"Could it be that I've been slapped so hard by that idiot cultivator that I don't recognize him anymore?"
The scenery was beautiful, and a smile played on his lips.
It is Chenzhuochuan.
What are you doing here?
Song Tingwan subconsciously curved her eyes into a smile.
"This beast tide is no ordinary event; the Cloud Peak has come to our aid."
He had intended to tease her, asking what she, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, was doing in such a dangerous place.
But when he met her smiling eyes, he shook his head helplessly, "Is your shoulder feeling any better?"
Song Tingwan nodded, rubbed her shoulder until the pain subsided, and then looked at the reserved Shen Tu Changqing beside her.
"It's not your fault, I've been weak since childhood."
Shen Tu Changqing opened her mouth as if to say something, but when she met Shen Zhuochuan's gaze beside her, she swallowed her words and smiled sheepishly.
"I'm sorry, little sister, I'll be more careful in the future."
It turns out he wasn't feeling well. It seems he'll have to be careful while his sister is in Beihe these next few days, lest she accidentally get injured again.
Shentu Changqing looked at his hand with annoyance. Luckily, he hadn't hurt the person, or he would have been in deep trouble.
He could tell that the imposing man had something to say to her. Shen Tu Changqing told her that he was waiting in the area where the rogue cultivators were, and without daring to look at the man any longer, he quickly ran away.
It sounds like the person from the Cloud Palace Peak that Old Li was talking about. Wouldn't that be at the Nascent Soul stage?
I can't afford to mess with them.
No wonder they come from the summit of the clouds.
Then Sister Song is even more extraordinary.
Shen Tu Changqing, a burly man, pondered as he walked. When he arrived at the area with the rogue cultivators, he suddenly remembered the strange occurrence when he took the pill and quickly found a place to meditate.
To everyone's surprise, after taking just one Rejuvenation Pill, his old injuries had actually healed completely!
No wonder he felt something was off after eating it.
My old injury doesn't hurt anymore!
This...this...the Rejuvenation Pill I took before didn't have this effect!
Shen Tu Changqing stared blankly at his old wound, while someone else stood there, petrified, questioning the meaning of life.
.
In front of the city lord's mansion.
Song Tingwan and Shen Zhuochuan walked out slowly, not intending to attract attention at the entrance of someone else's residence.
“You’re so careless, you’re completely unguarded.”
She sighed helplessly, "I haven't been injured in years, so I didn't react for a moment."
Shen Zhuochuan chuckled and shook his head. "Beihe is not like Wenjian Sect and Yunyin. It will become even more chaotic in a few days."
It meant she should be more careful and avoid getting hurt again.
His gaze was concerned, and Song Tingwan understood it.
The girl's eyebrows curved slightly as she spoke of the alchemy techniques she had been secretly teaching Baili Xijiang these past few days.
They then mentioned that a few days ago, on a whim, they had gone to Beihe.
"You're not going to stand with the sect?"
Shen Zhuochuan stopped and frowned.
The Demon King has fallen into demonic possession, and the sect elders who received the news are rushing here, guessing that the Northern River region is still keeping the news from them for fear of causing unrest.
It's too dangerous for her to be alone.
Seeing the change in his expression, Song Tingwan raised her eyes thoughtfully, "Is this monster tide unusual?"
Shen Zhuochuan looked at her silently and nodded.
It's fine to tell her.
"The Demon King has fallen into demonic possession, which is why the demon beasts are so violent. According to the Demon King's trajectory, he will approach the Northern River in the next two days."
He came here today to tell Beihe this news.
"Do not leave the city; bring more defensive and teleportation artifacts."
Song Tingwan looked worriedly in the direction of the roaring monsters outside the city, wondering how many more people would die this time.
Thanks.
She snapped out of her daze and thanked him with a smile.
Shen Zhuochuan raised an eyebrow. "So you know you still plan to stay."
How dare someone at the Foundation Establishment stage be so audacious?
Song Tingwan smiled, her expression a mix of emotion and self-assurance: "If everyone flees, we might as well just hand over Beihe to the monsters as their lair."
"And what about you, Chen Zhuochuan?"
"Are you going to stay?"
It's unclear what the demon king's strength is, but Shen Zhuochuan is only at the Nascent Soul stage, and even he looked solemn, so it must be no ordinary being.
The man slightly raised his eyes and gave her a deep look.
All the sects and aristocratic families sent powerful figures to the scene, and he originally had no intention of getting involved.
"Um."
"So, why don't you beg me to protect you?"
Lazy and languid.
He leaned towards her with a carefree smile, his dark hair and jade crown reflecting the light, dazzling her eyes.
This prompted the woman to cover her mouth and chuckle.
She was delicate and frail, her slender fingertips pushing him away from his shoulder. The corners of her lips turned up slightly, and her casual tone revealed a sharp edge.
"Why don't you beg me to save your life?"
