Chapter 61: Chi Lian Fairy

A strange man shoved an unknown Medicinal Pill into her hand, and Li Mochou instinctively resisted.

But before she could react, Yu Xian struck her acupoints. Then, the man closed her mouth, and a warm breath came from his palm.

The Medicinal Pill seemed to be controlled by his hand, slowly entering her throat along with the breath from his palm, and then descending into her stomach.

Following that breath, it spread throughout her body, beginning to nourish her internal injuries.

This was a healing Medicinal Pill!

However, the man’s hand remained resting on her chest, channeling Qi into her.

Li Mochou’s eyes snapped open in fury. Normally, healing involved transferring Internal Energy from the back, but this man kept his palm fixed on her chest!

This despicable man, how dare he?

“You want to save her, brat?” The five ugly men glared at Yu Xian.

“Is that not allowed?” Yu Xian did not look at the ugly men, continuing to help Li Mochou digest the Medicinal Pill.

“You’re asking for death!” The five men attacked without a second thought, swinging the iron rods in their hands directly toward Yu Xian.

However, just as their iron rods were about to strike, the man and Li Mochou, who had been standing in their center circle waiting to be beaten, suddenly vanished from sight.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

The iron clubs all smashed into the ground, making resounding noises and kicking up a cloud of dust.

“Where are they?” The five men shouted in unison, completely unaware of what had happened.

“Up here!” Yu Xian’s voice came from above their heads.

“Ah?”

The five men looked up, but what greeted them was a sweeping leg descending from the sky.

Before the men could even react, they were all kicked flying, closely followed by their own weapons, the heavy iron rods.

And then, there was no ‘then’.

Their weapons made intimate contact with the heads of the five men.

Li Mochou, held in Yu Xian’s arms, was also shocked by his swift action.

When Yu Xian was channeling Internal Energy to help her heal, she could already feel how profound his Internal Energy was.

She never expected his Martial Arts to be so high, dispatching the five men in an instant.

His methods were even more ruthless than hers, the Devil Head.

Who was this man?

Li Mochou looked up at Yu Xian, only seeing his perfect jawline. She had known Yu Xian was extremely handsome at first glance, but she hadn’t expected him to look so good from her current angle.

Li Mochou stared, momentarily lost in admiration.

Soon, Li Mochou snapped back to reality. She was still in Yu Xian’s arms, and he didn’t seem inclined to let her down.

“You… you put me down.”

Li Mochou’s injuries had mostly healed by then, and she had regained some strength, so she tried to struggle free.

But her acupoints were sealed, and she couldn’t move.

Moreover, the man held her firmly, a posture that made her feel exceptionally ashamed, causing her face to flush red.

“You are injured.”

Yu Xian ignored Li Mochou. Although he had treated her injuries, she wasn’t fully recovered yet.

Besides, how could he let go of such a perfect Opportunity for contact?

“Unseal my acupoints. I feel much better and can walk on my own.”

Li Mochou felt ashamed and indignant. How could this man be so domineering, with such immense strength!

“No, you are not well yet.”

Yu Xian smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth.

Li Mochou had once been a gentle and kind woman, but after being abandoned by Lu Zhanyuan, her temperament changed drastically, and she developed an intense hatred for faithless, fickle men.

She usually killed such men on sight.

Later, she even earned the nickname ‘Chi Lian Fairy’.

Ultimately, she met her end in a sea of fire, which was truly regrettable.

Now that Li Mochou had met him by a fortunate Opportunity, he couldn’t let her run away.

“Despicable man, scoundrel, put me down immediately, or I won’t be polite to you!”

Li Mochou could no longer bear being held in Yu Xian’s arms.

“Be good. Although your internal injuries have somewhat healed, you have other injuries. I will take you to a place to continue your healing.”

Yu Xian coaxed her gently in a soft voice.

Li Mochou froze for a moment.

No one had ever coaxed her so gently, not even Lu Zhanyuan.

In the past, she was the one who accommodated Lu Zhanyuan; he had never spoken to her in such a soft and slow manner.

In that instant, she felt a desire to sink into this tenderness.

This was the first time she had ever met a man who was both so gentle and so handsome.

Li Mochou forgot Yu Xian’s earlier (light) treatment of her injuries, and forgot the brutality Yu Xian displayed when killing the men.

“You are Li Mochou, the grand-Disciple of Lin Chaoying of the Ancient Tomb Sect, correct?”

Seeing that Li Mochou was very susceptible to his gentle approach, Yu Xian asked softly while carrying her toward the valley.

“Mm.”

Li Mochou nodded dazedly.

“My Master once made an agreement with Senior Lin Chaoying that the Disciples of our two sects should help and care for each other in the future.

This means there is already a connection between you and me, so please do not refuse my care and healing, alright?”

“Are you telling the truth? Your sect has ties with our Ancient Tomb? Who… who are you, and where are you from?”

Li Mochou was surprised by the news, and only then did she fully process the situation.

This person saved her and healed her; she was still in his arms, yet she didn’t even know his name.

“It is naturally true. My name is Yu Xian, and I come from Beyond the Heavens.

My Master had a connection with Lin Chaoying in the early years.

If you don’t believe me, I will prove it to you once you are healed.

But right now, the most important thing is your injuries.”

Yu Xian consistently acted as if he were primarily concerned with Li Mochou’s injuries, prioritizing her well-being.

“I… I believe you, but when I am better, you must also explain everything clearly to me.”

Li Mochou shyly buried her head in Yu Xian’s chest.

Yu Xian cared for her so much, almost as much as her Master cared for her.

She felt a little happy inside; what was going on?

“Alright, I promise you, but you must also promise to cooperate with my treatment.”

“Mm.”

Yu Xian saw Li Mochou shrink into his embrace with the demeanor of a young woman, and a look of pity flashed in his eyes.

What a wonderful woman she was; if someone genuinely cared for and cherished her, she would give her life for them, yet someone failed to treasure her.

If others don’t cherish her, he will!

Since he encountered her, he would not allow these unfortunate women to experience their original fates.

Li Mochou didn’t know how long had passed; she only knew she was listening to Yu Xian’s heartbeat.

Yu Xian carried her like this all the way in flight until he placed her on a stone bed and released her acupoints; only then did she snap back to her senses.

“Where is this?” Li Mochou asked.

Li Mochou now realized they seemed to be inside a cave.

Having grown up in the Ancient Tomb since childhood, she was not unfamiliar with such an environment.

She just didn’t know where they were.

“This is the former residence of a Senior.

I had an appointment with the Eagle Brother here to bring it some wine and planned to drink merrily this afternoon.

But now that Mo Chou is here, I must break my date with Brother Eagle.

Mo Chou, rest here for a while; I’ll go prepare some things.”

Yu Xian said with a smile.

“Okay.”

Li Mochou nodded woodenly.

He called her Mo Chou, so naturally, so intimately…
