Outside, as the first rays of sunlight fell in the morning, Guan Yingying suddenly opened her eyes and looked up at the sky with surprise.
Nie Qingshuang, dressed in a blue palace dress, gracefully arrived.
"Master...Master..."
But when she actually saw Nie Qingshuang, Guan Yingying lowered her head in shame.
Among Nie Qingshuang's disciples, she had the highest cultivation level, reaching the late stage of the Soul Control Realm.
But in the end, he couldn't protect his junior sister.
A woman in black appeared last night... she is a powerful expert at the Spirit Void Realm!
Fortunately, the other party only kept an eye on her and did not intend to kill her.
However, Guan Yingying also possesses a trace of Nie Qingshuang's sword intent, so if pushed too far, she can release that sword intent to fight back.
"Where is Yao'er...?"
Nie Qingshuang looked at her second disciple, who had always given her a headache, with an indifferent expression.
"I...I lost it..."
"..."
Nie Qingshuang took a deep breath, ultimately managing to hold back her outburst, and waved her hand, saying, "Get out of the way, go back and put me in solitary confinement for another two years..."
Guan Yingying was a regular in the solitary confinement cell. Although she often went in to commit crimes, she was always released after only a few days for other reasons. She had long been used to it.
Nie Qingshuang looked at the small hill below, her eyes narrowing slightly, and gently tapped it with her right hand.
The entire land seemed to be under terrifying pressure, slowly splitting open from the middle downwards to reveal the yellowish-brown soil below.
At one moment, Nie Qingshuang seemed to realize something and suddenly jumped down.
Beneath the soil, a black brick and stone ruin was revealed.
Nie Qingshuang frowned and raised her hand again to lift the bricks and stones until a light array appeared before her eyes. Finally, the Palace Master raised an eyebrow.
"An illusion array?"
Without hesitation, Nie Qingshuang raised her hand and broke the illusion array. The unconscious girl in the white dress fell from the sky and was caught in Nie Qingshuang's arms with quick reflexes.
Perhaps only when facing Ning Yuyao's seal would this usually stern palace master reveal a hint of tenderness and heartache.
Ning Yuyao was stabbed twice by the Green Tail Needle, one of which pierced her lower abdomen. Already seriously injured, she forcibly took out the Ghost Cold Needle to fight the enemy. After the battle, the poison took effect, and she fainted after a short while.
"This is... scorpion venom? You bastard of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect! You bastard Mu Shuangshuang! How dare you injure my disciple like this! You're lucky you ran away fast this time, otherwise I would have made sure you never returned!"
As he spoke, he exerted a slight force in his palm, forcing out the remaining poison from Ning Yuyao's body.
After feeding Ning Yuyao a pill, just as he was about to leave, Guan Yingying suddenly stepped forward and said, "Master, there's also... there's also Junior Sister's husband, he should still be down there!"
Nie Qingshuang frowned, concentrated for a moment, and shook her head, saying, "I can't sense any living beings. Since the Demonic Sect made their move, they must be gone..."
"This..." Guan Yingying sighed, "Master, please keep looking. Junior Sister really values that boy, especially after he came back this time. She's like a completely different person. If we lose that child again, I'm afraid Junior Sister might do something foolish..."
"Alas...you foolish child..."
Nie Qingshuang sighed and handed Ning Yuyao to Guan Yingying, saying, "Take your junior sister to a safe place to rest for a while. I'm going to find that kid!"
...
Deep underground.
The girl in the black dress curled up in Shen Yunhao's arms, her expression shifting between relief and pain.
Whenever she frowned, the girl would shift her body to find a more comfortable position, greedily absorbing the water elemental power emanating from Shen Yunhao's body, and her injuries began to gradually improve.
Although the fluctuations of spiritual energy around her were still barely perceptible, at least she could now maintain her human form and was no longer that tiny silver scorpion.
Shen Yunhao, however, was breathing evenly and steadily, and was already in a normal sleep.
At one point, as if dreaming of something, a silly smile appeared on his lips. He hugged the girl in his arms, turned to the side, and unconsciously reached up to touch her.
He uttered a few incoherent mumbles in his sleep.
"Yao'er... my dear Yao'er..."
"Ouch!"
As Shen Yunhao turned to the side, Mu Shuangshuang, who was originally lying on him, fell off, hitting her head on the ground. She let out a soft cry of pain and then opened her eyes groggily.
The next second, I felt a warm, large hand touching my body through my clothes.
However, wherever that large hand touched, a trace of water-based energy seeped into her body, repairing her severely injured and broken form, making the girl feel a sense of comfort.
Stimulated by this soul-deep comfort, Mu Shuangshuang, who was already somewhat dazed, felt even more at ease and snuggled closer to Shen Yunhao with her head puffed out.
until……
"Huh? Yao'er...you've bound your chest again, it looks smaller..."
Mu Shuangshuang: "???"
Instantly sober!
Only then did she realize that she was lying in a man's arms, and immediately rolled out of Shen Yunhao's arms!
Shen Yunhao suddenly felt an emptiness in his arms, but he didn't wake up. He pursed his lips and continued to sleep.
"..."
Mu Shuangshuang was stunned for a long time before suddenly exclaiming, "I...I'm not dead? Where is this? Under the insect cave?"
Only then did she realize that she was inside a golden cocoon.
However, as Shen Yunhao's injuries healed, the golden cocoon was gradually fading and looked like it might disappear at any time.
"This is...that lecherous brat? He's actually still alive?"
Mu Shuangshuang frowned, not thinking too much, but instead sat down cross-legged and began to meditate and introspect.
After a while, she opened her eyes and gave a bitter smile: "How miserable... I never thought that I, Mu Shuangshuang, would end up like this one day."
"However... the external injuries have healed quite a bit, why is that?"
Only then did she turn her gaze to Shen Yunhao on the other side.
"Could it be... that he saved me?"
Mu Shuangshuang leaned over, sniffed the air, and gave a satisfied look: "Such a strong water element... Is this little lecher made of water?"
"and……"
She raised her palm and looked at it: "These water elements can actually heal my injuries? It's like a mobile medical kit..."
"But the treatment speed is just too slow..."
At that moment, she suddenly remembered the feeling of being nestled in Shen Yunhao's arms.
"Could it be..."
After hesitating for only a moment, Mu Shuangshuang scurried over to Shen Yunhao's side and shrunk herself inside.
"Wow...this feels so good..."
reserved?
She's a witch of ten thousand poisons; pretense is no match for saving her life.
Anyway, this kid is sleeping like a pig, he doesn't know anything.
In the end, I'm the one who benefited...
After convincing herself, Mu Shuangshuang suppressed the slight, almost imperceptible unease in her heart and snuggled closer to Shen Yunhao with a sense of peace.
"What a wonderful treasure! I wish I could use it..."
"Wait! To be used by me?"
The girl suddenly raised her head, a dark and unfathomable light flashing in her eyes.
