In the end, Jiang Wang still turned back.
Of course, he knew the danger and knew that turning back meant death.
But no matter what, White Lotus had saved his life. He couldn't turn back just like that.
He couldn't pretend that he didn't know her situation. He couldn't pretend that he hadn't heard anything.
He hid carefully, not daring to reveal any fighting spirit to avoid being detected.
But the battle between White Lotus and Ji Xuan was shocking.
He couldn't even bear the aftermath, so he retreated again and again, circling around again and again.
He had been looking for an opportunity, but a battle of this level wasn't something he could participate in.
He had changed positions countless times and looked for countless angles, but he couldn't cut in.
He held his sword for a long time, but he couldn't unsheathe it!
He was waiting, waiting for the earth-shattering strike, waiting for the most glorious moment.
But Ji Xuan wasn't Xiong Wen. He wasn't suppressed by White Lotus. The peak of the Inner Mansion Realm wasn't something the Soaring Dragon Realm could compare to.
After opening the Heaven and Earth Door, each realm was a different world. These words weren't said for nothing.
There was no need to talk about the benefits of pressing the sword in such a battle.
Danger tempered his heart, and his Dao Heart sharpened his sword.
If he could use his sword tonight, the world would be different.
…
After a dazzling battle, White Lotus was suddenly sent flying.
And it happened to fly over the grass he was crawling on.
He didn't have time to think. His body moved faster than his thoughts.
He immediately rushed out and caught White Lotus.
His sword hadn't been unsheathed, but he had already used his sword!
In a battle between Inner Mansion experts, the young man stepped forward bravely.
Puff!
The moment it came into contact with Bai Lian's body, the remaining power of Ji Xuan's fist surged forth, tearing apart his Dao Yuan defense as easily as breaking through dry weeds.
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
He was sent flying, fell to the ground, and rolled.
He got up and ran wildly with White Lotus in his arms.
He circulated the Four Spirits Body Refining Technique to replenish his energy. He had never run so fast.
He could only hear the wind, the wind, and the whistling of the wind.
He knew that he might not be able to escape, but he had to try.
He didn't know that the situation behind him had changed until he heard the roar of a huge wave. But he didn't even dare to stop and look back.
Therefore, he had no idea what was happening behind him.
He did not run directly in the direction of Maplewood City. Instead, he first ran in the direction of Wangjiang City, then turned east, turned again and again, and finally headed north.
Now that the two Starry River Vortexes had been established, he had sufficient Dao Energy and could run back to Maplewood City in one go.
However, he did not do so. Instead, after cleaning up his tracks, he casually ran into a mountain forest.
He didn't know what had happened that caused Ji Xuan to not chase after him immediately, buying him precious time. However, he was very clear that his speed was far inferior to Ji Xuan's. Once his whereabouts were exposed, he would be easily caught up.
And the people running on the road tonight were undoubtedly the most obvious targets.
Therefore, he chose to find a place to hide.
After finding a cave, Jiang Wang beat up the owner of the cave, an ordinary black bear, and hid inside the cave with White Lotus in his arms.
However, he did not kill the black bear. Instead, he continued to pin it down in the cave as a cover.
Only now did he have the time to check on White Lotus's injuries.
…
The cave was very dry. This black bear had quite a lot of requirements for its living environment.
Carefully laying White Lotus flat on the ground, Jiang Wang casually condensed a fireball and hung it in the air to illuminate the area.
The black bear was clearly frightened, but after being stared at by Jiang Wang, it sat down obediently.
White Lotus had completely fainted. Those soul-stealing eyes were also closed at this time.
Many parts of the black clothes on her body were torn, revealing the white and moving scenery. The black veil covering her face was intact, so it should not be an ordinary item.
Jiang Wang held his breath.
The most serious wound should be on her abdomen. The whole area was a mess of flesh and blood. The fragments of her robe were mixed with the flesh and blood, and there was no intact place.
The C-grade mid-grade Essence Nurturing Technique was the only healing Dao technique that Jiang Wang had mastered.
The principle was to gather wood elemental Essence Qi to help the injured regain their vitality and promote self-healing.
For White Lotus's injuries, it was better than nothing.
But Jiang Wang could only give it a try.
After forming a seal, a ball of green elemental Essence Qi slowly approached White Lotus's abdomen and reacted with her wound.
With a flash of white light, this ball of green elemental Essence Qi silently dissipated.
With the level of Jiang Wang's Essence Nurturing Technique, it was impossible to heal the wound left by Ji Xuan.
But when the green elemental Essence Qi came into contact with White Lotus, a wonderful change occurred.
Jiang Wang's Azure Dragon Chapter of the Four Spirits Body Refining Technique had reached perfection, so he was very sensitive to wood elemental Essence Qi. He clearly sensed the dissipation of the Essence Nurturing Technique, and did not overlook the change in the black candle in the Tongtian Palace.
That black candle was lit.
In the Tongtian Palace, it burned without fire.
Strangely, Jiang Wang subconsciously understood that this black candle could burn for a quarter of an hour, and then it would disappear.
But he did not know how it was lit, or how it should be lit. He did not even know how to extinguish it before it burned out.
In short, everything was in a blur.
The only thing he was clear about was that it probably had some kind of connection with White Lotus.
The black candle was extinguished, and a part of it was gone.
When it was in Jiang Wang's Tongtian Palace, other than being entangled by the Dao Vein True Spirit, there was nothing special about it. But at this time, it burned and extinguished itself.
And with this moment of light and fire, a Dao technique appeared in Jiang Wang's mind.
In such a short moment, it should not have been so much shorter. It should be because of this Dao technique.
"Flesh grows white bones, the soul returns to the body …"
Jiang Wang subconsciously murmured, his right hand unconsciously forming a seal. Finally, he was enveloped in a layer of white light.
This light should be pale white, not blazing white. It should be gloomy, but it inexplicably had a holy feeling.
When this white light covered White Lotus's abdomen, the flesh of her abdomen wriggled at a speed visible to the naked eye, beginning to recover.
In the end, White Lotus's breathing calmed down.
And Jiang Wang didn't even know where this white light came from, what its principle was, or what kind of power it used.
He only knew the name of this Dao technique in his mind — the Flesh Regenerating Soul Technique.
The black candle that had suddenly appeared in the Heavenspan Palace … seemed to be something extraordinary.
Jiang Wang was focused on healing, so he didn't notice it.
Behind him, the black bear had completely shrunk into a ball, trembling.
… …
When White Lotus woke up, it was already daybreak.
The sunlight even peeked into the cave, allowing White Lotus to clearly see the black bear.
It was leaning against the cave wall, sitting very obediently, its two paws resting in front of it, motionless.
Then, she smelled a strange smell. White Lotus's gaze shifted, and she saw Jiang Wang.
He was holding something that could perhaps be called a "bowl", slowly walking over to White Lotus.
The sunlight shone on his face, and White Lotus inexplicably felt that it was somewhat beautiful.
"You're awake?" Jiang Wang said warmly.
"Yes." Perhaps it was because she had just recovered from her serious injuries, but White Lotus's voice was unexpectedly soft.
"When you were unconscious, you always shouted something about rice." Jiang Wang held the thing in his hand and explained, "I thought you were probably hungry. But it's not convenient to make food right now. So I found some wild vegetables and made a bowl of soup for you. "
"Rice …" White Lotus was stunned. "Made … for me?"
"Yes." Jiang Wang was a bit embarrassed. "When I was young, my family sold medicinal herbs, so I can distinguish between herbs and wild vegetables. Don't worry, there's no poison. I hollowed out a stone and made the bowl temporarily. I used Dao techniques to control the fire … "
"Bring it over." White Lotus interrupted him.
"Oh." Jiang Wang approached and handed the bowl of wild vegetable soup to White Lotus.
White Lotus raised her upper body with difficulty. After taking a look, she immediately wanted to lie back down.
The "bowl" was already very rough. At best, it was a stone with a hole in it. As for the soup … if that colorful sticky liquid could be considered a soup.
After getting closer, the strange smell became even more terrifying …
"Drink." Jiang Wang stretched out his hand again. He was very expectant and sincere.
"No one has ever made soup for me," White Lotus said.
She steeled her heart and took the "bowl".
"You're now a patient, so you should be taken care of," Jiang Wang said.
White Lotus couldn't deny that despite its ugly appearance and unpleasant smell, this bowl of soup brought her a warmth that she had almost never felt before.
Being taken care of …
She had never been taken care of.
