Shen Zhiyi wanted to say something more, but when she saw the wound on his palm, she was instantly drawn to it.
He made a deep cut, tearing the flesh apart and exposing the bone.
Her heart skipped a beat.
The medicine was carefully poured onto it.
"You're really tough on yourself."
She frowned and carefully spread the powder.
Cang Liuyu stared at her tightly furrowed brows, his expression softening. "If we don't use such a strong method, how can we force out the poison needle?"
Shen Zhiyi looked up at him and saw that he didn't even frown.
It seems like they're quite used to these injuries.
"Does it hurt?" she asked.
Cang Liuyu's gaze fell, and he saw her softly pinching her fingertips, her face filled with worry.
I don't know if it was the medicinal powder that was effective.
Or something else played a role.
He felt no pain, but instead experienced a strange sense of pleasure.
"The powder is good," he said calmly.
"It doesn't hurt."
"I told you it would work!" Shen Zhiyi smiled, her dimples deepening and her eyes sparkling. "It's all thanks to me."
Cang Liuyu gently raised his eyebrows.
A gentle breeze blew by, ruffling his loose hair.
His gaze fell, locking onto her face, and he whispered, "Mmm."
"Thanks to you."
"You're too kind, you're too kind~" Shen Zhiyi said with a smile, putting away the remaining powder. "You got injured while looking for a magic weapon for me."
"It's only right that I look after you."
"But next time, don't start a fight so easily."
"What if they really can coexist peacefully with us?"
"Wouldn't that mean I got injured for nothing?"
Cang Liuyu looked at her innocent face, paused for a moment, and then said, "That snake demon has a thousand years of cultivation and is skilled in bewitching arts. After seducing women, it will feed on their flesh and bones to maintain its youthful appearance."
"If you are truly deceived by him, you will surely be reduced to ashes."
"From now on, don't trust others too easily."
He stared at her intently, his voice carrying a warning, "Especially, good-looking men."
She seems to be particularly unable to resist beautiful things.
The Phantom Orb is like that.
The snake demon is the same.
Shen Zhiyi belatedly exclaimed in surprise, "Why didn't you say so sooner?"
"I almost thought you were really that ruthless, that if I angered you, I would be killed without a second thought."
"Just like they say, ruthless and heartless."
"So that's not it after all."
Cang Liuyu's expression was cold and stern as he withdrew his gaze.
“I cultivate the path of ruthlessness, and what you’re saying is exactly my true nature.”
"I don't think so." Shen Zhiyi shrugged. "You helped me find the magical artifact and saved me. How can you be ruthless and heartless?"
"You are clearly the best in the world."
Cang Liuyu was stunned for a moment.
Shen Zhiyi tilted her head and leaned closer to him, smiling radiantly, "I'm going to start pursuing you from today."
"Cang Liuyu, will you be my Daoist partner?"
...
Not far away, Su Nianyin, with water plants on her head and black mud on her face, lay behind a clump of plants by the river, glaring angrily at them.
Damn Cangliuyu.
If he hadn't been fighting the snake demon, she wouldn't have been so badly injured by the demon's dark aura.
And there was the female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect next to him.
There are so many Illusionary Stones...
Could it be that her opportunity was stolen by this female cultivator?!
Su Nianyin's pupils dilated suddenly when she caught sight of the soft sword on Shen Zhiyi's wrist.
That's a top-grade magic weapon!
Once you acknowledge a master, their power is immeasurable!
How could a female cultivator who has just established her foundation, and from the Hehuan Sect, obtain such a top-grade treasure?
Does she deserve it?!
The most powerful magical artifact Su Nianyin had ever obtained in both her lifetimes was only of the superior grade.
She looked down at the Su family jade pendant hanging from her waist.
His eyes flickered.
This jade pendant contains a secret heirloom of the Su family, which can help people conceal their presence.
This is why, despite her lying in wait here, Cang Liuyu failed to spot her.
The Su family gave her the jade pendant so that she could avoid attacks from demons in the secret realm.
This will allow her to smoothly enter the sect.
But now...
She wanted to use it for something more useful...
Su Nianyin parted the water plants and quietly left the bushes.
*
She wants to be his Daoist partner?
Cang Liuyu was surprised by Shen Zhiyi's directness, paused for a moment, and then turned his head away.
"absurd."
"If you keep saying these nonsensical things, you can leave on your own."
He strode forward.
Shen Zhiyi followed with a smile, "If you agree so easily, why would I even bother pursuing you?"
"Anyway, I won't give up easily."
"My senior taught me a lot of methods, but I think it's better to tell you that I'm pursuing you."
What if you misunderstand me and can't see my true feelings?
Cang Liuyu stopped, turned his head, glanced at her, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips.
"sincere?"
They've only known each other for a few hours, so how can they be sincere?
Cang Liuyu found it somewhat laughable.
He curled his lips into a smirk. "Then tell me, what's your reason for pursuing me?"
Shen Zhiyi was stunned for a moment.
"You're good-looking."
You can't exactly say you're coveting his cultivation level.
"So, you'd pursue anyone who's good-looking?" Cang Liuyu's eyes turned cold.
"No, that's not it." Shen Zhiyi waved her hand. "I'm chasing the best-looking ones."
"You are the most beautiful."
Her eyes were exceptionally sincere.
Cang Liuyu: ...
He suddenly remembered her reckless remark.
