Compared to Donglin Yan Xue's girlish shyness, Jianchen seemed extremely calm. His breathing was steady, and his mind was calm.
He slid his left arm under Donglin Yan Xue's armpit and placed it under her shoulder blade. He placed his right hand under Donglin Yan Xue's knee, and with a slight force, he lifted Donglin Yan Xue up again.
Donglin Yan Xue's body immediately stiffened. Although she had cultivated for quite some time, her mental age was equivalent to a twenty-year-old girl. Just the contact of her hand with a man was enough to make her blush, let alone being carried by a man.
As a result, Donglin Yan Xue's face had already reddened. In particular, she basically pressed her head against Jianchen's chest when she was so close to him. She could even clearly smell the unique presence of a man from Jianchen.
For a moment, Donglin Yan Xue felt her head spin. She was stunned.
Jianchen was calm. A pair of wings condensed from Radiant Saint Force appeared on his back. With a flap of the wings, he flew close to the ground with Donglin Yan Xue in his arms. He completely demonstrated the abilities of a Radiant Saint Master with a one-colored soulcore.
"I hope Aoyama doesn't chase after me in the short term, or I'll probably be exposed to Donglin Yan Xue." Even though a beauty was in his arms, Jianchen did not have any other thoughts. At this moment, he was slightly worried as he prayed inside.
Donglin Yan Xue's success or failure was directly related to whether he could enter the Tower of Radiance or not. As a result, Donglin Yan Xue could not die in the World of Moon and Star.
Now that Donglin Yan Xue was heavily injured, she could not even take simple actions. If Aoyama chased after her at this moment, she definitely would not be able to endure a single strike from him. Jianchen needed to step forward.
However, Donglin Yan Xue had already woken up. If he revealed his strength before Donglin Yan Xue, his identity would definitely be exposed.
As a result, Jianchen worried about Aoyama chasing after them the most at this moment.
Donglin Yan Xue gradually returned to normal in Jianchen's arms. Even though she was very reluctant, she knew that she could not change anything. As a result, she could only slowly accept the fact that she was in Jianchen's arms.
Donglin Yan Xue studied Jianchen secretly. When she discovered that Jianchen only cared about travelling and had no other thoughts, her opinion of Jianchen could not help but change slightly once again.
"Although he became my protector because he wanted to get close to me with ulterior motives, at the very least, he didn't abandon me in a moment of life and death like the other eight protectors. When I was injured by Qing Shan and fell unconscious, he didn't abandon me and flee by himself either …" Donglin Yanxue thought. Unknowingly, Jian Chen had become more and more pleasing to the eye. Even she did not realise that Jian Chen had become more and more pleasing to the eye.
Even when she was in Jianchen's arms, she did not feel much resistance from the bottom of her heart.
At this moment, Donglin Yan Xue sniffed Jianchen's chest as hard as she could. She immediately became surprised and thought, "There's the smell of blood." Afterwards, for some reason, Donglin Yan Xue actually tore open Jianchen's clothes. Immediately, a few vicious wounds appeared.
Jianchen had naturally suffered a few wounds from his battle with Aoyama. A portion of the wounds had completely healed under the powerful regeneration of the Chaotic Body, without leaving behind any scars at all. However, there were still a few more severe wounds that had not healed completely due to the short amount of time that had passed.
Although he had changed into a set of clean clothes as soon as possible, he did not manage to wash off the smell of blood on him. As a result, Donglin Yan Xue smelled it and found it immediately.
"You're injured?" Donglin Yan Xue's face changed when she saw the vicious wounds.
"It's just some small wounds. It's nothing." Jianchen did not care at all. However, he grumbled inside. He had never thought that Donglin Yan Xue would suddenly change her mind, boldly tearing open his clothes and exposing his wounds.
The Donglin Yan Xue he knew was not like this.
"Does it hurt?" Donglin Yan Xue looked at the wounds with mixed feelings and asked softly.
He was clearly injured, yet he had to act like nothing was wrong, taking her along with him. At that moment, Donglin Yanxue's heartstrings seemed to have been tugged.
Jianchen came to a halt. He lowered his head and stared at Donglin Yaxue strangely. Since when had Donglin Yan Xue become so concerned about him?
Sensing Jianchen's strange gaze, Donglin Yan Xue also realised that she had been overly concerned. She blushed slightly and covered up Jianchen's wounds again. She called out gently, "What are you standing there for? Let's hurry up. If Aoyama catches up, none of us will survive."
A while later, Donglin Yan Xue could not help but say, "Why don't we stop for a while and heal your wounds first so that they don't worsen?"
"It's just a flesh wound. It's nothing!"
The two of them remained silent along the way. Jianchen carried Donglin Yan Xue for three days and three nights as fast as he could with his one-colored soulcore. Only then did he act like he was exhausted and find an extremely well-hidden cave to stop.
After all, the strength of a one-colored soulcore was extremely limited. Travelling at such a high speed for three days and three nights had already reached the limits of what a Radiant Saint Master with a one-colored soulcore could endure. If he continued on, it would be very easy for him to be exposed, so he needed to stop.
The gloomy cave was silent. A fist-sized luminous pearl embedded in the ceiling provided some light. It was possible to make out Jianchen and Donglin Yan Xue through the dim light.
The two of them sat separately. Jianchen had already closed his eyes to recover, using Radiant Saint Force to heal his wounds.
In reality, he had already made a full recovery from his wounds thanks to the regeneration of the Chaotic Body. He only continued to use Radiant Saint Force to heal for Donglin Yan Xue so that he could find a reasonable explanation for his wounds.
Before him, Donglin Yan Xue sat on the ground with her arms around her knees. She looked at Jianchen with mixed feelings. She stared at Jianchen like that until Jianchen finished recovering.
"You've recovered?" Jianchen opened his eyes and looked at Donglin Yan Xue. He asked even though he already knew the answer.
Donglin Yan Xue was gloomy. She said helplessly, "My soul has been injured by Martial Soul Force, so I can't use Radiant Saint Force. There's even a sliver of Martial Soul Force left in me. Although I've suppressed it with pills, it's also stopped my wounds from healing. As long as the Martial Soul Force remains, I won't be able to recover. "
