Sensing the eagle's fear, Ye Zichen chuckled and joked with it.
"Brother Eagle, you're the boss, yet you're already scared of this little fire? Don't worry too much, I'm just trying to keep the girl warm. I'll get rid of the fire soon. "
When Ye Zichen mentioned the boss, the eagle immediately revealed a proud expression, as if it was saying …
Do you think you can scare me just by lighting the fire?
However, Ye Zichen could still sense the fear of fire in its eyes. It was a fear ingrained in the bones of wild beasts.
The temperature of the cave gradually increased, and the curled up girl felt much more comfortable.
Her furrowed brows relaxed slightly, but her face was still flushed with a sickly red.
Ye Zichen knew that the condors were afraid of fire, so after stabilizing the temperature of the cave, Ye Zichen extinguished the flames, then walked in front of the girl and flipped her sleeve up. As expected, there was a dark red line on her arm as well.
She'd been poisoned by the Thousand Lotus Powder!
Her sleeves were flipped up, and the line on her arm had long since passed her shoulder.
"Huh?"
At that moment, the eagle also walked over and looked down at Ye Zichen with a questioning gaze.
"You came all the way here just to get me to use the Sorrow Relief Grass to save this human girl?"
Ye Zichen tilted his head and looked at the eagle. In the eyes of ferocious beasts, outsiders like them were all enemies. He didn't expect the eagle to actually save the human girl, and even go to the Snow Ape to steal the Sorrow Relief Grass.
He didn't expect the eagle to be such a good one!
The eagle nodded like a human, and occasionally placed its wings on the girl's forehead, as if to feel her temperature.
"But I know what to do. I do have the Sorrow Relief Grass. Am I supposed to just feed it to her?" Ye Zichen looked at the eagle.
"Huh!?" The eagle nodded vigorously, as if confirming Ye Zichen's words.
"No way. It's so simple and crude. You don't even need to work on it?" Ye Zichen said in disbelief. "Don't treat us humans like you yao beasts. Our digestive and absorption abilities aren't as good as yours."
"Huh!" The eagle screeched loudly, as if telling Ye Zichen to do as he said.
"I already told you, humans aren't as good at absorbing as you yao beasts! Tell me, how did your big eagle … "
Just as Ye Zichen finished his sentence, Enghuo, who was lying on the hay, suddenly let out a painful groan. Ye Zichen was also worried, while the eagle looked towards the girl worriedly, then continuously flapped its wings and screeched.
He had to admit that there was no other way!
The Lord of Spiritual Treasure was the one who told him to get the Sorrow Relief Grass. If it weren't for the Lord of Spiritual Treasure, Ye Zichen wouldn't even know about the Sorrow Relief Grass.
As the Venerable of Numinous Treasure had never told him how to use it, he naturally did not know.
Ye Zichen didn't want to give it to the girl directly for her own good. But in this situation, the girl's condition was already very bad, and he didn't know how to use the Worry Relieving Herb, maybe …
There was no better solution than feeding it to her.
The girl's condition was getting worse and worse, and the eagle was crying out anxiously.
"Then let's try everything we can!"
The dark red dotted line had already spread past her shoulders. One could only imagine how long she could last. Ye Zichen took out a stalk of Sorrow Relief Grass and placed it in the girl's mouth. However, since she'd already lost consciousness, she wouldn't swallow it on her own.
"Sorry for the offense."
Ye Zichen cupped his hands at the girl, then pressed them against her skin.
Divine power surged between his fingers. Ye Zichen used his own divine power to drag the Sorrow Relief Grass into her stomach and let it absorb itself.
This seemed simple, but it took Ye Zichen a full hour to finish!
Perhaps it was because the girl had a sensitive constitution, but whenever he touched her, she would moan. Ye Zichen's mind was in chaos.
Finally, he swallowed the Sorrow Relief Grass. His forehead beaded with sweat, Ye Zichen let out a long sigh and sat to the side.
"Brother Eagle, is this enough?" asked Ye Zichen.
"Screech!"
The eagle nodded happily, then sat down by the girl's side like an obedient baby waiting for its little master to wake up.
Ye Zichen was very confused when he saw that!
The eagle was obviously a creature of the Transcendence Mausoleum, while the human girl was undoubtedly an expert who'd come from the outside in search of good fortune. The two of them were completely unrelated, but the current situation made Ye Zichen feel like the eagle was actually being raised by the girl.
This was way too strange!
Also, everyone here was at least an emperor-level expert. The girl looked to be only sixteen or seventeen, yet she'd become an emperor?
This kind of talent was probably even more monstrous than the Divine Arbiter's nephew!
"Brother Eagle."
Ye Zichen wanted to say a few words to the eagle, but it completely ignored him and remained by the girl's side.
Ye Zichen rubbed his nose bitterly and said no more. He walked to the cave's entrance and looked outside …..
The majestic palace was right in front of him. If he could fly, he'd reach it in less than a hundred breaths of time.
However, he couldn't fly here. If he walked, who knew how long he'd have to walk!
He was more concerned about the Great Sage and the others. He didn't know if Gu Li had safely returned the Sorrow Relief Grass, but he was also worried about whether they were worried about his safety.
"Screech!"
All of a sudden, the huge eagle in the cave let out an excited cry.
When Ye Zichen heard that, he turned around and saw that the girl on the hay was already showing signs of waking up. He walked up to her, only to see her slowly open her eyes.
"Screech!
Screech! "The eagle happily circled around her. Ye Zichen could sense how weak she was, so he took out a divine-grade spirit-recovery pill and placed it in her hands.
"You're a human?" The girl didn't accept the pill right away.
Ye Zichen nodded noncommittally. The girl clearly hadn't expected to see a human here either. A hint of surprise flashed through her eyes.
Then, she looked at the huge condor and said.
"You were the one who captured her, weren't you?"
The eagle pretended not to understand human language and looked curiously at the girl.
The girl smiled helplessly, patted the eagle's wings, then smiled apologetically at Ye Zichen.
"I'm sorry, I've delayed your time fighting for good fortune and treasures."
"It's no problem. You're very weak right now, so this pill should be useful to you." Ye Zichen handed the pill to her. The girl leaned in and sniffed it. "A divine-grade spirit-recovery pill. It seems you're no ordinary person in the outside world."
"Anyone who can make it here can't possibly be an ordinary person," laughed Ye Zichen. The girl didn't retort. Anyone who could make it here was at least an emperor-level expert. In the outside world, they were all overlord-level existences. They naturally weren't ordinary people. However, the "ordinary people" she was referring to weren't actually these people. But since Ye Zichen didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't force the topic.
Let's chat.
"Thanks."
The girl didn't act coy. She accepted the pill.
A divine-grade spirit-recovery pill was indeed the best tonic for someone like her, who'd run out of spiritual energy.
As soon as the pill entered her mouth, she sat down cross-legged to recover her divine power. The divine-grade spirit-recovery pill contained quite a bit of divine power, but it definitely wasn't enough to help an emperor-level expert recover completely.
After recovering roughly thirty percent, the girl emerged from her meditative state.
"Screech!"
Suddenly, a serious look flashed through the eagle's eyes, and it called out to the young girl.
The girl narrowed her eyes as if she could understand the eagle's words.
"Do you need help?"
The eagle shook its head.
"Then be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, the eagle flew out of the cave. As he watched it leave, Ye Zichen's eyes widened. He couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Brother Eagle, when you leave, take me out too!
"Big White said outsiders invaded his territory. He has to go out and deal with it. When he returns, I'll have him take you out, "said the girl, as if she'd read Ye Zichen's thoughts.
"Outsiders? That's …. "
"To them, the ones who are outsiders are naturally us." The girl smiled.
"Then I don't know if I should say something!" Ye Zichen's eyes flashed with hesitation.
"You're sort of my savior. If you have anything to say, just ask. As long as it's something I can say, I won't hold anything back," laughed the girl.
"You've known the eagle for a long time?"
"Are you talking about Big White?" The girl smiled. "Of course I don't know him. I came in from the outside as well. When I entered the snowy mountains, I was directly transported to Big White's territory. I was nearly eaten by those birds, but Big White saved me. "
"He has a good impression of humans?"
"I don't know, but he's pretty good to me. Pretty much all the treasures around his territory were snatched by him for me."
"…"
Ye Zichen was speechless. Outsiders like us have to fight ferocious beasts just to get some treasures.
This girl's luck is good. She took a liking to the overlord the moment she came in, and the overlord helped her snatch treasures. Isn't that infuriating?
"Maybe it's because I look a bit similar to Big White's mistress when he was alive, so he has a good impression of me. But don't ask me about Big White's past. I didn't ask him in depth, so I don't know that. "
This girl really does seem to know how to read minds. Ye Zichen did want to ask about Big White's past, but before he could, the girl cut him off.
Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows at being unable to understand Big White's past.
"You know the language of beasts?"
"A bit!"
Do you know what it means to chat awkwardly?
That's what Ye Zichen and the girl in front of him felt!
They didn't know each other before, so their communication was limited to one asking and the other answering.
"Oh yeah, I still don't know your name. You saved my life. I will definitely return the favor after I get out," said the girl.
"I …" Ye Zichen hesitated for a moment.
He didn't really want to use his real name, but this was a favor from at least an emperor-level expert. Ye Zichen couldn't bear to reject it.
"Ye Zichen!" Ye Zichen decided to say his real name after thinking about it for a moment.
To his surprise, the girl's eyes lit up when she heard his name.
"Is your mother Ye Rong?"
