150 Blood Ferre

Darkness covered the sky, and a bright moon hung high as moonlight shone down like water. The leaves and branches shook alongside the wind, and the shadows cast by them were like seaweed gently moving in the water. It was a very peaceful scene.

Chu Liuyue leaned against a thick tree, and Rong Xiu sat beside her since he planned to clean her wounds.

Chu Liuyue’s most severe injury was the crushed shoulder blade. If it didn’t get treated in time, it would never get better. Luckily, Rong Xiu seemed to be familiar with these things, so she didn’t need to teach him. His actions were gentle and swift.

Rong Xiu softly spoke as his detailed finger gently pressed on her shoulder. “I’ll help you push your bones back. Endure it.”

Chu Liuyue nodded. She had suffered countless similar injuries in her previous life, so they did not mean much to her.

Rong Xiu gently placed his hand on Chu Liuyue’s shoulder and pushed with his palm.

The pain caused Chu Liuyue’s entire body to tremble.

Rong Xiu looked at her and saw that the young girl’s face had gone pale and how sweat covered her forehead due to the pain. However, Chu Liuyue did not utter a single sound from the start till now as she endured the pain.

This place was a two-day journey from the Imperial City. It was impossible for Rong Xiu to come here instantly, which meant that he was at Wan Ling Mountain a long time ago.

Rong Xiu’s expression did not change. “Rong Shu said she wanted to hunt for a fiend, so I personally came here to take a look since the Fiend Tidal was going on. I planned to find a suitable fiend and bring it back for her.”

Rong Shu was the Eighth Princess. She was already 13, the age when one could make a pact with a fiend.

However… Rong Xiu could’ve just instructed a subordinate to do it. Why did he come here personally?

In a seemingly smiling manner, Chu Liuyue said, “You’re really nice to Eighth Princess.”

Rong Xiu did not care that she saw through him. He turned around and looked at her seriously instead. “Yes, I’m indeed very nice to ‘her.’”

Without explicitly saying it, they all could understand who the ‘her’ meant.

Chu Liuyue’s heart skipped a beat, and she did not know what to say momentarily.

try { window._mNHandle.queue.push(function () { window._mNDetails.loadTag("386623558", "300x250", "386623558"); }); } catch (error) { }

Coincidentally at this point, Xue Xue finally came back. The lion walked to Chu Liuyue and put down the thing in its mouth.

When the little fellow heard this and realized that it could always stay by her side, it could not help but cry even louder. It only stopped after a long while, but its body still shuddered. Its eyes were also red, looking pitiful and cute.

The blood ferret spotted Chu Liuyue’s injured shoulder and obediently stuck by her side.

Rong Xiu looked at it and suddenly said, “Its vitality is pretty good.”

Chu Liuyue was in a good mood, and her eyes had curved up like a crescent moon. “Yeah, it was attacked by that black flying python when it tried to help me. The mountain then collapsed…”

As Chu Liuyue talked, she suddenly felt that something was amiss. This little fellow is just a third-grade fiend and doesn’t have much attacking power. How did it survive the fierce attack from the black flying python? It also survived after the mountain collapsed and everything became chaotic…

Chu Liuyue held the blood ferret in her hands again and flipped it around to examine it.

The little fellow seemed to be tickled and rolled around in her palm.

Chu Liuyue was taken aback. It seems like the little fellow hasn’t suffered any serious injuries? Other than a few abrasions, its entire body is unscathed!
