If he did not remember wrongly, four months ago, when he first met Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan had just broken through to the 7th Layer of Body Refinement. In these short four months, his strength had actually risen by nearly two whole stages. This kind of speed of improvement was simply unheard of!
If it was an ordinary peak 8th Layer of Body Refinement, Peng Xu would naturally not pay any attention to him. He himself was an existence at the 9th Layer of Body Refinement. However, he was well aware of Lu Xuan's battle prowess.
At the 6th Layer of Body Refinement, Lu Xuan was already able to kill a peak 9th Layer ferocious beast, the Goldwing Tiger. Now that he had reached the peak 8th Layer of Body Refinement, forget about the 9th Layer of Body Refinement, even a practitioner at the 10th Layer of Body Refinement would not be a match for Lu Xuan. Perhaps only a practitioner at the peak of the 10th Layer of Body Refinement would have the qualifications to fight against Lu Xuan.
Peng Xu had seen through his own strength, but Lu Xuan's expression did not change. Right now, his mind was preoccupied with Zhang Dongshuang's situation and his anger towards the second master of the Zhang family. He basically did not have the mood to think about anything else.
"Let's not talk about this, let's go find Miss Zhang first." Lu Xuan's expression was dark as water as he said.
Peng Xu naturally nodded his head. Lu Xuan's strength had given him great confidence. In his opinion, based on the relationship between Lu Xuan and Zhang Dongshuang, he would definitely stand up for her. The end of the second master of the Zhang family was about to come.
The two of them swiftly travelled and soon arrived at the most remote corner of the small town. This was the place where Peng Xu and Zhang Dongshuang lived in seclusion.
"Young hero Lu, we've arrived. The young miss is here." Peng Xu said as he pointed to a shabby house in front of them.
Upon seeing the appearance of this house, Lu Xuan slightly furrowed his eyebrows. This living environment was really too poor. However, considering Zhang Dongshuang's current situation, it was likely that this was the only place she could hide in.
To Zhang Dongshuang, she had lived like a princess since she was young. Yet, in such a short period of time, she had encountered so many unforeseen events. This kind of ordeal was probably not something an ordinary person could understand. Sighing softly in his heart, Lu Xuan walked forward and pushed open the door of the house.
Under Peng Xu's guidance, Lu Xuan came to a bedroom that didn't look too dilapidated. With a squeak, the door was pushed open, and an unpleasant smell wafted in.
"Ahem, is that Peng Xu? Cough cough … "An incomparably weak yet rather familiar voice rang out. It was Zhang Dongshuang's voice, but at this moment, she was coughing incessantly. Clearly, her condition was extremely poor.
"Miss has been depressed recently and caught a cold. Her body is getting worse day by day," Peng Xu explained in a low voice.
A martial artist's body was much stronger than an ordinary person's. Unless it was a special situation, a martial artist would not catch a small illness like a cold. Now that Zhang Dongshuang had caught a cold, it was enough to show how bad her condition was at this moment.
Lu Xuan nodded slightly and walked straight in. He saw a bed in the room and a thin figure curled up on the bed. At this moment, because of the coughing, her body was constantly trembling.
When he arrived at the bedside, Lu Xuan's gaze fell on Zhang Dongshuang's thin face. At this moment, her pretty face was sickly pale. However, even in such a state, it could not hide her beautiful appearance, causing people to feel a sense of pity for her.
However, at this moment, Zhang Dongshuang was desperately coughing and did not notice Lu Xuan at all.
"Miss Zhang." Lu Xuan called out softly.
When she suddenly heard Lu Xuan's voice, Zhang Dongshuang's coughing suddenly stopped. She slowly raised her head and looked at Lu Xuan, who was by the bedside. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
In her originally lifeless eyes, a trace of spirit gathered once again. Zhang Dongshuang could not help but sit up on the bed. She looked at Lu Xuan without blinking and murmured, "Young hero Lu? Am I hallucinating? Or, am I already dead? Young hero Lu, you're here to see me? "
Obviously, in Zhang Dongshuang's heart, Lu Xuan had already died in the Land of Inheritance. It was impossible for him to appear here. Since he had appeared now, she was either hallucinating or she was dead.
Seeing Zhang Dongshuang in this state, Lu Xuan felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. He sat down on the edge of the bed and reached out to support Zhang Dongshuang's frail body. "You're not dead, I'm not dead either. I'm here to see you, it's alright now."
When she heard Lu Xuan speak again and confirmed that the person in front of her was really Lu Xuan, Zhang Dongshuang could no longer suppress her emotions. She directly threw herself into Lu Xuan's arms and hugged Lu Xuan tightly as she burst into tears.
"Young hero Lu, I'm sorry. Not only did I cause you to die in the Land of Inheritance, but I also lost the inheritance you obtained for me. I never thought that you would still come to see me …"
Zhang Dongshuang spoke with a sobbing tone. Her tears gushed out like a fountain, instantly drenching Lu Xuan's clothes. Hugging Zhang Dongshuang's alluring body, Lu Xuan did not have any evil thoughts. When he heard her words, he could not help but smile bitterly. Obviously, Zhang Dongshuang did not listen to him at all. She still thought that she and Lu Xuan were already dead.
However, Lu Xuan was not in a hurry to explain. He only let Zhang Dongshuang hug him and constantly patted her back to soothe her emotions. During this period of time, Zhang Dongshuang had suffered a great deal of grievance and suffering, but she had no place to vent it. She could only keep it in her heart. Now that she was crying, she could vent to her heart's content, which was very beneficial to her.
Seeing this, Peng Xu also breathed a sigh of relief. He slowly closed the door and left.
Since Young hero Lu was here, the young lady should be able to slowly recover.
In fact, Peng Xu had now regarded Zhang Dongshuang as his own young lady from the bottom of his heart. When he first followed Zhang Dongshuang, he was indeed very unwilling. Even when he saved Zhang Dongshuang from the Zhang family, it was also to save his own life. After all, if Zhang Dongshuang died, he would also die with her.
However, over the past few months, Peng Xu had seen Zhang Dongshuang become more and more depressed. Her body and willpower were getting worse day by day. Peng Xu had genuinely pitied her. Although he was not old enough to be Zhang Dongshuang's father, he was still more than ten years older than Zhang Dongshuang. In his eyes, Zhang Dongshuang was like his little sister, and he had the love and protection of an older brother for a younger sister.
No one knew that when he was young, he had a little sister, but she was later taken away by an evil tyrant. In the end, what he found was only his sister's corpse after she had been raped. Although he had made progress in his cultivation and had long killed the evil tyrant, his sister would never come back. Now, in Zhang Dongshuang, he could vaguely see the shadow of his sister.
Therefore, in these few months, he had been doing his best to take care of Zhang Dongshuang, sincerely hoping that Zhang Dongshuang could get better. Unfortunately, there had been no effect. Now that Lu Xuan had arrived, he finally let out a sigh of relief. His face, which had not smiled for a few months, also showed a trace of a smile.
After crying for a while, Zhang Dongshuang's crying gradually became sobs, and in the end, there was not a single sound. Lu Xuan lowered his head to look, only to find that Zhang Dongshuang had directly fallen asleep in his arms. On her long eyelashes, there were still a few sparkling and translucent teardrops hanging, looking very pitiful.
When he saw her like this, the depression in Lu Xuan's heart gradually dissipated, and a faint smile appeared on his face. Seeing that Zhang Dongshuang was sleeping soundly, Lu Xuan did not want to wake her up, and was about to put her on the bed to have a good sleep. However, he did not expect that Zhang Dongshuang would hug him tightly, as if she was afraid that he would fly away. Helpless, Lu Xuan could only sit on the side of the bed and hug Zhang Dongshuang, allowing her to sleep peacefully.
However, he did not just sit there. Instead, he released a stream of Yuan Power into Zhang Dongshuang's body, helping her to sort out the chaotic Yuan Power in her body, and unblocking the blocked meridians due to her restless mind.
This sleep lasted for an unknown period of time, Zhang Dongshuang only felt that she was sleeping very soundly, and even had a rare dream. She dreamt that Lu Xuan suddenly came to see her, and even hugged and comforted her, making her feel very at ease. When she saw Lu Xuan, it was as if she saw someone she could rely on.
During this period of time, ever since she left the Zhang Family, she had not had a good sleep, which was why her body was so weak. In addition, she had neglected her training, which caused her to catch a cold.
When she woke up from her sleep, Zhang Dongshuang felt that she had never felt so comfortable before, as if her entire body had been rejuvenated. This was naturally because Lu Xuan had helped her unblock her meridians, and after a good sleep, her mind had recovered.
Her eyelashes slightly trembled, and she finally opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Lu Xuan, who was hugging her. At this moment, Lu Xuan was also looking at her, and when their eyes met, a trace of doubt flashed across Zhang Dongshuang's eyes. Could it be that she had not woken up yet?
However, it was also good that she had not woken up, in that case, she would enjoy this warmth a little more. As she thought of this, Zhang Dongshuang could not help but smile a little. When she looked at Lu Xuan, a trace of impulse rose in her heart, and she quickly lifted her head from Lu Xuan's embrace. Under Lu Xuan's astonished gaze, her warm and moist lips instantly kissed Lu Xuan's mouth.
Not only that, she also took the initiative to pry open Lu Xuan's teeth and have a passionate kiss.
If it was any other time, she would definitely not dare, and would not do such a passionate act. However, at this moment, since it was a dream, she was somewhat unscrupulous.
In his astonishment, Lu Xuan did not keep his mouth tightly shut, and Zhang Dongshuang immediately succeeded. Her little tongue easily slipped into Lu Xuan's mouth, and mischievously stirred.
When the tip of their tongues touched, an indescribable feeling was transmitted, like a burst of electricity. Lu Xuan could not help but shiver, and Zhang Dongshuang was also a little puzzled. It was soft and wet, wasn't this dream a little too realistic?
After waking up, Lu Xuan could not be bothered to experience the ecstasy, and hurriedly pushed Zhang Dongshuang away, and repeatedly shouted: "Miss Zhang, wake up."
After being shaken by Lu Xuan, Zhang Dongshuang finally woke up. She realized that this "dream" seemed to be a little unusual, as if … it was not a dream?
"Young, Young, Young Hero Lu?" Zhang Dongshuang's face suddenly turned red, and she stammered as she shouted.
After being teased by Zhang Dongshuang, Lu Xuan's heart also began to beat faster. He forced himself to calm down, and nodded: "Yes, it's me."
"It's really you? You're not dead? You, I, just now … "Zhang Dongshuang's face turned even redder, and her heart beat even faster. She almost could not complete her sentence.
