Feng Yaoqing almost couldn’t retain her serious expression: “Strengthen the stomach and promote digestion?”

“Yes, yes.” Shen Wanqing nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, she did not forget to reverse the truth and give credit to herself, “Then I saw this hero on the way, and I kept guarding him since he was seriously injured. When he woke up, I took good care of him every step of the way!”

Speaking of this, she still did not forget to sniffle, feeling moved by herself: “Don’t thank me, this is what people in the cultivation community1 should do.”

She thought about it, since Xie Wuyan didn’t wake up that early, by making up some rubbish nonsense while sounding resolute, perhaps it could make others suspicious of the situation.

Thinking about it in a positive light, perhaps this villain’s IQ was not that high?

Xie Wuyan let out a low laugh, his chest trembled slightly, he was obviously smiling, but the emotion in his eyes made one shudder.

After a long time, he dragged the ends of his words, and said with diction: “Well, thank you lady, I will repay you with gratitude in the future.”

Shen Wanqing automatically translated Xie Wuyan’s words. It sounded like a thank you, but from the tone of his voice, it was clearly “You are dead tonight”.

Finally, after half an hour passed, Feng Yaoqing came out of the room.

Shen Wanqing stepped forward and asked in a low voice, “How is the injury of Master Xie?”

Although Feng Yaoqing didn’t like Shen Wanqing, she had saved this person after all, so she replied while holding her temper: “Although the Heart Locking Curse has not been lifted, it is no longer a serious problem, he just needs some rest.”

“Is he really okay?” Shen Wanqing held a little hope, “Is there really no chance of harming his life?”

Feng Yaoqing glanced at her and said quietly: “I will treat him personally.”

“Then will you fail accidentally?”

Feng Yaoqing smiled: “Miss Shen, don’t worry, I never fail.”

Shen Wanqing: “…” Tears.

It’s because you never fail, that’s why I’m worried.

Things were becoming tricky now.

Shen Wanqing thought about it carefully, and felt that although the relationship between her and Feng Yaoqing was not very good, she could still remind her to be wary of Xie Wuyan.

“Sister Feng, think about it, the Xuantian back mountain is heavily guarded, how did he—”

“You are right, to have the courage to make a desperate attempt to break into the Xuantian back mountain, and to offend the demon priest to help innocent children and forcibly take on the Heart Locking Curse, it was at the expense of his own life for the greater good.” Feng Yaoqing’s tone was full of admiration, “That is a real chivalrous man.”

After speaking, she flicked her sleeves and turned to leave.

I am right?

What did I say that was right?

Shen Wanqing fell silent.

She couldn’t help her, she really couldn’t.

She looked at the back of Feng Yaoqing, and a sense of fatigue washed over.

It’s only been half an hour, how has the heroine been brainwashed by the villain already?

She thought about it for a while, although Xie Wuyan doubted her, after all, she was still in the Xuantian Sect, so he probably wouldn’t do anything impulsively.

What’s more, he still needed to win the trust of the protagonist, so he should be even more cautious during this period.

And although the heroine was unable to understand, but Ji Feichen, as the male protagonist, probably had higher acuity.

Wouldn’t he be even more hostile against this kind of male creature that suddenly appeared next to his wife?

Shen Wanqing made a mental calculation, just a few more days, Ji Feichen should be returning from collecting the medicine.

When the time comes, she could remind him in a roundabout way and maybe even get rid of the villain.

But still, it was better to be safe than sorry.

Shen Wanqing pondered all night, found a paper and pen, and quietly wrote the line, “If I die, the murderer is Xie Wuyan”, and then stuffed it under her mattress.

Then she snuggled in her quilt and went to bed happily.

One life for a life, even if she were to die, she still would take one out with her too.

In the middle of the night, Xie Wuyan opened his eyes.

He propped up, leaned against the edge of the bed, put his hands loosely on his knees, then closed his eyes and tilted his head back slightly.

The Heart Locking Curse that caused his bloodstains to crawl up and down his body visibly began to fade, gathering to his fingertip to become a wisp of smoke. With a slight movement, the smoke followed the wind and faded.

Xie Wuyan’s eyelashes moved, and there was a chill in his red pupils, which was completely different to the gentle and humble appearance just before.

He raised his hand, flexed his knuckles, and held the bedpost.

The wind moved, and the candle on the table flickered.

After a while, the candlelight extinguished in an instant, and a fierce wind rushed straight towards Xie Wuyan.

It was coming menacingly, but it stopped abruptly just an inch away from him.

Then, as if an invisible barrier was born in the air, the demonic power spread, and finally gathered into a firelight, which suddenly broke apart.

A Swift Ghost2 appeared, his whole body was on fire, his face was distorted, and he looked like he was in extreme pain.

But no matter how much he struggled and screamed, he could not make a sound.

Xie Wuyan didn’t move his eyelids.

He didn’t even turn his eyes, he just slowly put on his outer garment, brushed his cuffs, and got up.

When passing by the Swift Ghost, the fire suddenly rose, and it instantly burned to ashes, condensed into a ghost spirit, and entered into Xie Wuyan’s body.

Very annoying.

Leaving the seal this time attracted too many followers who were out of their depth.

How courageous were these things, so much so that they believed with their weak cultivation they could hurt him even a little bit?

But talking about being out of one’s depth.

He stopped and narrowed his eyes.

There was the boldest.

Xie Wuyan didn’t even need to go out and find her at all, he could perceptively feel where that little reckless lady was hiding just through her scent.

Unexpectedly, she was sleeping soundly.

The quilt was wrapped around the waist with half of it falling to the ground. With a pillow in her arms, she seemed very comfortable lying in her bed.

Xie Wuyan furrowed his brows.

How could a girl’s sleeping posture be so ugly?

He stretched out his hand and lightly tapped Shen Wanqing’s forehead with his index finger.

Sure enough, Xie Wuyan could feel that she was born with a special pure soul from the moment a drop of her blood was stained on the back of his hand. Such a weapon trained out of such a body and soul could drive one’s demonic power to be even stronger.

Simply put, it was a very suitable material to sacrifice for the sword.

But such a body also had a fatal flaw.

That is, it had to be a living sacrifice.

The living person must be pushed into the sword furnace in order to merge with the sword body.

Therefore, this little girl was lucky, she needed to be kept alive.

Xie Wuyan found it ridiculous.

Since he was sealed, countless people wanted to kill him, especially those from the Demon Realm. They pretended to be courteous to his face, but in fact, all of them had ulterior motives in their hearts. But no matter who it was, sending such useless rubbish that could be strangled with one hand to attack him with a dagger, were they looking down on him?

Xie Wuyan glanced at Shen Wanqing’s pale white neck, he didn’t really want to kill her.

Compared to that, he wanted to know how dumb the person behind all this was, to send such a person to kill him.

By the way—

Raise her fatter, and then throw her into the sword furnace later on – the fire would burn more vigorously.

Xie Wuyan’s fingertips went down slightly, sliding down the bridge of her nose all the way to her lips, rubbing them gently before pulling away.

Then, he glanced at his fingertips with disgust.

Shen Wanqing wrinkled her nose, turned over, and rubbed the sheets.

With such a movement, the pillow slid down and was kicked to the side of her leg, resting on her calf.

Her sleeping posture was really ugly.

So ugly that it affected his mood.

Xie Wuyan retracted his hand, glanced at her lightly, and turned to leave.

The sound of footsteps slowly disappeared.

The depressed atmosphere also gradually dissipated.

The wind outside the window was blowing, and the leaves hit the window, making a rustling sound.

After a long time, Shen Wanqing quietly opened one eye, stretched out her hand to hold onto her little heart, and got up from the bed.

She touched her back, it was filled with cold sweat.

She had already woken up when Xie Wuyan touched her forehead with his index finger.

Because, really, it was too itchy!

Just like a feather scratching your face, you couldn’t help but sneeze.

Not only that, he even scratched all the way from her forehead to her chin.

For a moment, it made Shen Wanqing think that this might be Xie Wuyan’s self-made torture method, like when someone tickles you and you still have to pretend to sleep and not make a sound.

That was definitely the most difficult period in Shen Wanqing’s life. While worrying about being stabbed to death, she also had to endure such a harsh punishment.

In the end, she couldn’t help it, and secretly turned over and rubbed her face to relieve the itching.

Fortunately, Xie Wuyan didn’t realize anything, her life was saved.

But she didn’t understand the thoughts of the great villain at all, why would he run into a girl’s room at night and touch her here and there, stare at her for a long time and then leave without saying a word?

Did he know that she would be under a lot of psychological stress!

Did all the characters in cultivation novels never sleep at night?

Shen Wanqing patted her chest, turned over and got out of bed, poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it in one gulp, only by doing this, did her pounding heart calm down.

Maybe she felt that the room was too stuffy, so she went to the window, preparing to open a small gap.

At this moment, she caught a glimpse of a dark figure in her peripheral vision.

The movement of her hand suddenly froze. After a long time of silence, she wanted to pretend that she didn’t see anything, and then close the window.

“Snap.”

A soft sound.

A delicate hand clasped the edge of the window.

Xie Wuyan looked at her lazily, his gaze unwavering, but it made her shudder.

Shen Wanqing took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile, and said dryly: “What a coincidence, you also came to enjoy the moon.”

Xie Wuyan smiled: “Yes, what a coincidence.”
