The medicinal liquid brought by Uncle Bird was extremely effective. It was made from hundreds of different types of spirit herbs, and it even contained the extremely precious Spring of Life.
Jun Wu Xie's body had always been extremely regenerative. After soaking in the medicinal liquid, his injuries were quickly healed.
At dusk.
Su Gang left the carriage and found some wood in the abandoned village. She then started a bonfire in front of the carriage.
Although it should be safe at the foot of the Zong Wang Mountain, she still planned to keep watch outside.
In the current situation, Jun Wu Xie was severely injured and on the verge of death. Ji Inran's condition was also not good. Both of them needed to be treated.
Inside the carriage.
Ji Inran hugged Jun Wu Xie and let his body lean against her.
She was also circulating her True Qi to guide the medicinal aura of the Small Reversion Pill to recover her severely depleted True Qi.
The Heavenly Maiden's Seven Ultimate Steps was a secret technique that came from the deepest recesses of her memory.
She had this memory when she was young, but she couldn't remember why she had such a powerful technique in her mind.
At first, she thought it was an inheritance from her bloodline. However, she later discovered that it wasn't an inheritance from her bloodline, but something that truly came from the deepest recesses of her memory.
Ever since she was taken in as a disciple by that powerful cultivator, her horizons had been broadened. The more she understood certain things about the cultivation world, the more she suspected that there were secrets that she didn't know about.
Late at night, she absorbed all of the medicinal aura of the Small Reversion Pill. Her vitality was greatly restored, and her pale face became rosy.
The moment she opened her eyes, she couldn't help but be shocked.
The cracks on the man in her arms had all healed. His skin was smooth and shimmering with a glass-like golden light. Just looking at it made one want to gently caress it.
This made her feel shy. She almost suspected that she had fallen into depravity.
Whenever she was in front of him, her Dao Heart would always be unable to withstand a single blow. Because of him, she would fall into depravity and develop some unimaginable thoughts.
She hurriedly checked the condition of his body. She discovered that the terrifying cracks on his internal organs, bones, and meridians had all healed very well. There were only a few shallow wounds left.
At this point, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.
A knowing smile appeared on her gorgeous face.
She moved slightly, thinking that Jun Wu Xie should be able to lean against the wooden tub by himself by now, so she wanted to leave.
However, just as she was about to move, she heard him say softly, "Don't move. It's quite comfortable like this."
His voice was a little lazy and sounded like he was enjoying himself.
"You … you woke up a long time ago?"
Ji Yinlan's face instantly flushed red.
This man had woken up a long time ago, but he didn't tell her. He even let her continue to hug him in such an embarrassing position. How hateful!
She couldn't help but feel ashamed and resentful. She forcefully pushed him away and was about to leave.
In the end, Jun Wu Xie abruptly turned around, and a pair of strong arms pulled her into his embrace.
"Wuxie … you … let go of me …"
She struggled a few times, but was unable to break free. She felt the pair of strong arms gradually tighten around her, and her heart also started to beat faster, like a little deer running around, causing her to panic. The red glow on her face quickly spread to her sparkling ears, and then to her snow-white neck, turning her completely red.
Gradually, she stopped struggling.
She was a little afraid of touching him in such an ambiguous and intimate way when both of them were awake. At the same time, she also very paradoxically liked this feeling.
In the end, her hands that were originally pushing his chest gradually turned into hugging him.
They hugged each other.
She leaned her head on his shoulder, and her breathing was uncontrollable and somewhat disorderly. She could clearly hear the sound of her own heartbeat.
Just let me experience this feeling a little more …
She said to herself in her heart.
She would leave in a few days, and she didn't know when she would see him again after this.
She suddenly realized that her heart was actually very reluctant to part with him.
"Promise me, don't do this again in the future."
She said softly.
"When you were facing that old man, didn't you also risk your life for me?" Jun Wu Xie shook his head and said, "For Yueyao, I will do anything, and for you as well."
"I don't expect to be compared to Yueyao. In your heart, no one will be able to replace her in this lifetime."
Ji Inran sighed secretly. Jun Wu Xie still didn't know about Yueyao's matter. She had been hesitating whether she should tell him.
But after thinking about it again and again, she didn't know how to say it.
This matter might be difficult for him to accept.
Jun Wu Xie didn't deny it. After a moment of silence, he said, "You're leaving soon, right? What happened at the border? "
"It's hard to explain in a few words. The situation is very complicated." Ji Inran was a little dignified and said, "Actually, since last year, I predicted that the flames of war would eventually spread to the borders of the Great Zhou."
"Since two years ago, the Xilin Kingdom of the Western Region sent out troops to conquer other countries. Until now, thirteen countries have been destroyed. With this trend, perhaps in a few months, they will attack the Xiantu Kingdom, which borders the Great Zhou Dynasty to the west. Once the Xiantu Kingdom is destroyed, with Xilin's style over the past year, they will definitely send troops south and attack our borders … "
"Xilin?" Jun Wu Xie was shocked, "Xilin Kingdom is so strong? They can wipe out thirteen countries in two years? "
He felt that this was too unbelievable.
A country's prosperity couldn't be achieved overnight. It must have gone through a long period of accumulation to accumulate a strong national strength.
If Xilin was really so strong, they would have begun to nibble away at the surrounding countries long ago. Why would they wait until recent years to mobilize troops?
"It's not that simple. Although Xilin Country is extremely ambitious and has been known to be aggressive since ancient times, it's impossible for them to have such strength. I suspect that there are other forces behind this. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense."
"I returned to the capital this time to customize the Black Armor and expand the scale of the Black Armored Army to fight against Xilin Kingdom's strongest Black Armored Soldiers!"
After hearing this, Jun Wu Xie was silent for a long time.
He didn't expect the real situation to be like this.
Although Ji Inran was strong, he didn't dare to say that he would be absolutely safe against the ferocious Xilin army.
In this world, even the strong were afraid of being besieged. There would always be a time when their True Qi would be exhausted.
If they were trapped, even the strong would be exhausted to death!
Only now did he understand why Ji Yinlan had wanted him to join the army twice.
Physical cultivators did have a great advantage on the battlefield. The stronger the physical body, the longer the vitality and stamina. Unless it was a long and explosive battle, it was difficult to exhaust a physical cultivator's strength.
"I'm sorry, I …"
"Don't say sorry." Ji Inran covered his mouth and said, "Yueyao needs you more. Protect her and yourself well. Only then can I be at ease."
Jun Wu Xie was silent.
At this moment, he didn't know what he should say, and what he could say.
They just stood there quietly, and no one said anything.
The next morning.
Jun Wu Xie's injuries had completely healed. Ji Inran said goodbye to him.
He sent her to the entrance of the village and watched her leave until her figure completely disappeared from his sight.
When he returned to the carriage, he noticed that Su Gang's expression was strange.
"Su Gang, why is your face so bad? Were you injured yesterday?"
He went forward to check on her condition.
Su Gang came back to her senses and shook her head. She looked around, still in shock.
"What happened to you?"
Jun Wu Xie felt strange. She didn't look like she was injured, but she was uneasy. This was too different from the calm and collected person he knew.
"Wu Xie, in the days you were at Zong Wang Mountain, did you see anything strange?"
She suddenly asked.
"Strange things?" Jun Wu Xie paused and said, "No, you mean there are strange things here?"
"Let's go! We need to leave this village quickly! "
She pulled Jun Wu Xie onto the carriage and sped away.
"Su Gang, tell me, what happened? Did you see something last night?"
Jun Wu Xie's heart was a little scared. To make Su Gang have such a reaction, what did she see?
When they reached the foot of Zong Wang Mountain, Su Gang said with lingering fear, "Last night, I think I saw something ….. I'm not sure what it was. It looked like a monster, but it also looked like a person. Its body was covered in red fur and it was under the withered tree in the village ….."
"What?"
Jun Wu Xie's heart skipped a beat. A chill ran down his spine and he felt a chill run down his spine.
"At that time, I wasn't sure what it was and wanted to go over to take a look. But I found that my body couldn't move. It was like I was bound by a mysterious force. That monster had a terrifying aura. I wanted to calm down, but I couldn't control the fear in my heart. I wanted to call out to you, but I couldn't make a sound … "
Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath and said, "Su Gang, I'm telling you, don't tell anyone about this. Otherwise, it will bring trouble to Sōgō Gakuin School!"
"Young Master, do you know that monster?"
"Don't ask. I'm not sure yet. Go back first. Don't come here at night in the future. "
"Alright."
Su Gang didn't ask further, but her heart was filled with confusion. What was hidden on Zong Wang Mountain?
"How could it be …"
As he watched Su Gang leave, Jun Wu Xie's expression turned solemn.
Su Gang wouldn't make up such a story for no reason. Even if it was an illusion, it couldn't be so coincidental!
Could it be …
He gulped. This matter was too terrifying.
He turned and ran up the mountain. He had to find Lord Alcohol and Uncle Bird immediately and tell them about this!
