The atmosphere in the cave was a little strange. Yun Yu couldn't help but ask, "Are you a resident of the Jia Ma Empire?"
Mu Qingxiao shook his head and said, "No."
"Seeing that you don't have any Dou Qi ripples on your body, yet you were able to save me. I think you must have some strength. You are quite bold. Don't you know that the interior of the Magic Beast Mountain Range is very dangerous?"
"How is it not dangerous? Moreover, I need some elixirs. "
Yun Yu was a little confused. What kind of elixir would cause him to risk his life and charge into the Magic Beast Mountain Range? "Have you found it?"
"I found it before I met you." Mu Qingxiao didn't need to think. He knew that she wanted to give him the elixir.
Yun Yu's beautiful eyes flickered. She recalled the jade bottle that Mu Qingxiao had applied medicine on him. She thought for a moment and asked curiously, "Are you an alchemist?"
"Yes."
"I have a friend who is also an alchemist. Coincidentally, he is in the Jia Ma Empire. If you are willing, I can introduce you to him after I finish my business here. Consider it as me returning the favor. What do you think?"
Mu Qingxiao was stunned. He immediately shook his head under her stunned gaze and said, "No need. I already have a teacher."
Yao Chen was the number one alchemist in the Dou Qi continent. He more or less knew the person that Yun Yu wanted to introduce. Compared to Yao Chen, he was simply too weak.
Hearing Mu Qingxiao reject her, a trace of astonishment flashed across Yun Yu's pretty face. She was actually rejected by the latter. Didn't he ask who she wanted to introduce to him?
Yun Yu was just about to open her mouth to speak when she saw Mu Qingxiao's uninterested appearance. She could only swallow the words that were about to come out of her mouth and nod.
Mu Qingxiao smiled and said, "Currently, the Magic Beasts are all searching for your whereabouts. After you have recovered, do you want to continue looking for the Amethyst Winged Lion?"
"You know about the Amethyst Winged Lion?"
Yun Yu was a little stunned and said, "You saw the battle just now?"
Hearing this, Mu Qingxiao nodded and said, "I saw it from afar. I happened to be cultivating here, and then I saw you fall into the river below covered in blood."
"I see. I need Amethyst."
Yun Yu didn't think too much about it. If she thought about it carefully, how did the young man in front of her see her battle with the Amethyst Winged Lion from thousands of meters away?
When night fell, Mu Qingxiao lit a small fire in the cave and caught two fish from the river outside. After cleaning their internal organs, she took out all kinds of seasonings from the storage space and sprinkled them over the fire to barbecue them.
More than ten minutes later, a rich aroma filled the air. Mu Qingxiao picked up a fragrant grilled fish and brought it to Yun Yu. "You can't move your body for the time being. Just lie down like this."
After saying that, Mu Qingxiao tore off a small piece of meat and blew the hot air away. "Open your mouth."
Her gentle words and gentle actions caused a ripple in Yun Yu's heart. A faint blush appeared on her beautiful cheeks. Her pink lips parted slightly, and she allowed Mu Qingxiao to put the fish into her mouth.
She chewed slowly a few times. The grilled fish was fragrant and tender, and there wasn't a trace of fishy smell. The fragrance lingered at the entrance. Yun Yu looked at Mu Qingxiao in surprise. She didn't expect it to taste so good. "I … I want more …"
Ten minutes later, only a pile of fish bones was left of the grilled fish. Yun Yu's face was still a little red, but her gaze towards Mu Qingxiao was much gentler.
.....
.....
In the early morning of the next day, Mu Qingxiao woke up early. He stood at the entrance of the cave and took a breath of fresh air. He turned his head to look at Yun Yu in the cave. Her complexion had finally recovered a little. It was estimated that she would completely recover in two days.
He was already a grade three alchemist. Next, he would start to prepare the spiritual herbs for refining grade four pills. Today, he was prepared to try his luck in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. If he could gather all of them, it would save him a lot of trouble.
An hour later, Yun Yu woke up. Mu Qingxiao reminded her, "I have something to do outside. Remember not to run around."
Hearing that, Yun Yu wanted to stop Mu Qingxiao, but she realized that Mu Qingxiao had already jumped down. Just as she stood up and took two steps, she accidentally pulled on her wound. She immediately gasped in pain.
She took two more steps forward. It was so painful that a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. She stopped struggling, but her beautiful eyes were filled with worry.
...
...
After half a day, they saw many low-grade spiritual herbs. However, they did not find any spiritual herbs for refining grade four pills. The Magical Beasts were still wantonly searching the mountain range.
At noon, Mu Qingxiao had no choice but to return to the cave.
Seeing that he had returned safely with two cleaned Magical Beast legs in his hands, Yun Yu immediately heaved a sigh of relief. She even felt a sense of security. She vaguely felt that it was not bad to live like this.
But soon, she shook her head slightly and threw the complicated emotions to the back of her mind. Her beautiful eyes were a little reproachful, but her tone was gentle. "You didn't encounter any danger, right?"
"I'm fine. How's your recovery?" Mu Qingxiao asked in return.
"I can already walk. I'll probably recover in a day or two."
Nodding slightly, Mu Qingxiao took out a dagger and nimbly made a few cuts on the Magical Beast legs. He took out a jade bottle and poured out a green liquid. After cleaning the blood on the Magical Beast legs, he sprinkled various spices and started a fire.
After that, Mu Qingxiao sat in front of the fire and began to roast the Magical Beast legs.
Half an hour later, the Magical Beast legs were almost done. Yun Yu was already able to help herself, so she did not bother Mu Qingxiao. She grabbed the bamboo pole and ate with relish.
As time passed, darkness quickly enveloped them.
In the cave, Mu Qingxiao helped Yun Yu take off the cotton cloth. During the cleaning process, it was inevitable that they would come into contact. The air was also filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
It would be a lie to say that he was not tempted, but Yun Yu was injured. Even if she was not injured, he could not force himself on her, right?
This kind of thing required both parties to be in love. Otherwise, it would be meaningless.
After changing the cotton cloth, Yun Yu lay on the clean ground with blushing cheeks. After two days of interaction, they had gradually become familiar with each other. She could not help but ask, "I still don't know your name."
"Mu Qingxiao."
"What a carefree name. My name is Yun Zhi." Yun Yu's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she said with a smile.
Mu Qingxiao looked at her strangely and said, "Yes, your name is not bad either."
For some reason, Yun Yu felt a surge of joy in her heart. She said, "Are you really not going to consider what happened yesterday?"
At this moment, a wolf's howl suddenly sounded outside the cave, disrupting the ambiguous atmosphere. Yun Yu's beautiful eyes flashed coldly. Mu Qingxiao looked at her and said, "Did you go out for a walk today?"
Yun Yu's cheeks immediately flushed with an apologetic blush. She shyly said in a low voice, "I'm sorry. When you went out, I went down … to wash up."
