It was swollen and hot, but it didn't hurt like he had imagined.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Sima Youyue looking at him in amusement.
"What kind of treatment is this?" he asked.
"Acupuncture." Sima Youyue said as she inserted the needles, "You're badly injured now, so it's best if you don't talk. Save your breath to absorb the effects of the pill."
Innkeeper Chou was indeed very tired, but his eyes were exceptionally bright as he said, "Chou Xiao Tian."
"Hmm?"
"My name," Chou Xiao Tian said and closed his eyes, allowing Sima Youyue to insert needles all over his body.
In a trance, he felt that the life force that had been flowing away was slowly recovering, and the aura of death no longer surrounded him. A piece of clothing was draped over his body, and Sima You Yue's voice made him slowly regain consciousness.
"Alright, I won't die."
Chou Xiao Tian opened his eyes and looked at Sima Youyue. Under the light, she looked tired. It seemed that she had spent a lot of energy to save him.
"Thank you," he said weakly.
"If you want to thank me, I'll waive the bill for our room." Sima Youyue said as she kept the silver needles.
"Alright." Chou Xiao Tian agreed without hesitation.
Sima Youyue packed up her things and looked at Chou Xiao Tian, saying, "I've been thinking about something. If I didn't save you, you probably wouldn't have lasted two hours. Are you really not going to say goodbye to your waiter? "
"His name is Lian Hong." Chou Xiao Tian said, "If I die and you don't bring him away, then let him live here for the rest of his life."
"How cruel." Sima Youyue smacked her lips and said.
"For his own good." Chou Xiao Tian smiled bitterly.
"What about now? You're not dead, and you're still staying here? "
"I need to think."
"Take your time to think about it." Sima Youyue placed a jade bottle on the table and said, "Take it again tomorrow at this time and you'll be fine."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. I've been paid anyway." Sima Youyue said, "If you really feel bad, give me another array stone like this."
"The door is over there. I won't be seeing you off."
Sima Youyue did not really want to knock on his door. She turned around and went out. When she opened the door, she saw Lian Hong standing in the courtyard with tears streaming down his face.
"Go in," she said and left.
Lian Hong had never left, and Sima Youyue knew all along. Only Chou Xiao Tian, who was severely injured and had lost too much of his life force, was not aware that Lian Hong was still outside.
"Thank you." Lian Hong bowed to Sima Youyue gratefully.
Sima Youyue smiled and left the courtyard.
She knew that the two of them had a lot to talk about. It was best if she didn't know, lest she got involved in other people's affairs.
With a responsible attitude for the patient, their schedule was pushed back by a few more days.
Five days later, Chou Xiao Tian appeared in front of the robbery in high spirits. When he saw Sima Youyue and the rest coming to settle the bill, he said, "Your bill has been waived."
"Since that's the case, are we still going to refund the deposit we gave?" Sima Youyue asked.
"That won't do. We can't refund what we've already given. "Chou Xiao Tian said with a serious face. He was afraid that Sima Youyue would ask him for money.
Sima Youyue smiled and said to Sima Lie and the rest, "Grandfather, let's go."
The group left the inn. Chou Xiao Tian looked at the empty room and said to Lian Hong who was cleaning, "Do you want to leave with them?"
Lian Hong rolled his eyes at Chou Xiao Tian and said, "You're the one who wants to leave with them. Why are you dragging me along?"
"So you don't want to leave with them?" Chou Xiao Tian narrowed his eyes and said.
"Yes!" Lian Hong threw the broom in his hand and said.
"Then why aren't you packing?"
"I'll go immediately. I'll be done in a few minutes."
After Lian Hong finished speaking, he ran to the back hall like a wisp of smoke.
"Stinky brat!" Chou Xiao Tian scolded jokingly.
Sima Youyue and the rest went directly to the Heavenly Tiger Hall. When the people there saw her and heard that she wanted to use the teleportation array, they politely led her to the courtyard where the teleportation array was.
Although the teleportation array had been repaired, it had not been announced to the public yet. They only sent people to guard the place and did not allow anyone to come close.
When Sima Youyue arrived, Zhou Hai Mo also received the news and rushed over.
"Is Great Master leaving?" Zhou Hai Mo asked respectfully.
"Yes, I was originally going to use this path to go outside. I didn't think that I would stay here for so long." Sima Youyue said. "Why, hasn't anyone used the teleportation array yet?"
"No, we sent two people out and they have already returned safely. It's just that the teleportation array hasn't appeared in front of everyone for too long. In order to not cause panic, it hasn't been announced to the public yet. "
"Then can we use it?" Sima Youyue asked.
"Of course you can!" Zhou Hai Mo said, "If Great Master wants to use it, you can use it anytime!"
"Thank you so much!" Sima Youyue said. "Grandfather, let's go."
They entered the hall and stood in the teleportation array. Just as they were about to inject spiritual energy into it, they heard a call.
"Wait! Wait! Wait for us! "
Sima You Yue looked outside and saw two people walking in anxiously.
"Young Master Sima, wait for us!" Lian Hong saw Sima Youyue and the rest and raised his hand to shout.
Chou Xiao Tian followed behind and the two quickly entered the house.
He was the only one who could come here without permission.
"Innkeeper Chou? You guys are leaving too? "Zhou Hai Mo looked at Chou Xiao Tian and the rest in surprise.
"Master said that he's had enough of the inn and wants to go out for a walk. I'm not a waiter anymore! "Lian Hong said with a smile. "Young Master Sima, can you give us a ride?"
"We're not going the same way as you." Sima Youyue said.
"It's on the way, it's on the way." Lian Hong said, "We'll go wherever you guys go. How could it not be on the way!"
"You're planning to follow us?" Fatty Qu asked with a smile.
"My master said that it's best if we bring you to wherever you want to go." Lian Hong said.
Sima Youyue knew that he was talking about the Innumerable Green Palace. She thought about how Chou Xiao Tian mentioned the Soaring Cloud Palace Master and guessed that they must know each other.
"Since that's the case, let's go together."
"Alright." Lian Hong stepped into the teleportation array and Chou Xiao Tian walked in slowly.
"Great Master, where are you guys going?" Zhou Hai Mo asked.
"Flower City." Sima Youyue said.
Flower City had a teleportation array that led directly to the Innumerable Green City.
Zhou Hai Mo nodded and injected spiritual energy into the teleportation array. The array activated and with a flash of light, the group of people disappeared into the array.
Outside Flower City, a space tunnel opened and Sima Youyue and the rest walked out. At this moment, they were already a few million kilometres away from Hong City.
"The teleportation array here is really troublesome. We can't even teleport directly into the teleportation array." Fatty Qu complained.
"There's a strict hierarchy here. Places like Heavenly Tiger Ridge don't have the right to teleport to Flower City. We can only teleport to somewhere near Flower City." Chou Xiao Tian explained.
