Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1165 - 1163: Spiritual Power Exhausted!
Yi Qingyu froze, half-squinting her eyes, staring intently at Lin Fan.
Although she didn't have a good impression of Lin Fan, this desolate, strange place made it quite terrifying to be alone.
Though Lin Fan was a pervert, at least he was a person.
But she couldn't bring herself to ask Lin Fan to stay.
"You, where are you going?!" She pouted, asking angrily.
"Going to..." Lin Fan was about to say, but noticed a flicker of panic and fear in Yi Qingyu's eyes, and immediately understood, smiling slightly. "Are you scared? How about I stay with you."
"Nonsense!"
Yi Qingyu was taken aback, not expecting him to see through her thoughts, her face flushed with embarrassment as she cursed.
"How could I be scared?! What would I be afraid of?"
"Then why are you asking where I'm going?"
"I just want to know who you are! Afraid that if you run away, I won't be able to kill you!" Yi Qingyu retorted, refusing to admit her fear, not wanting to show weakness in front of this pervert.
"My name is Lin Fan." Lin Fan smiled.
Yi Qingyu raised an eyebrow, surprised that this pervert would so openly tell her his name, wondering if it was a fake name.
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. My name is Lin Fan."
"What is this place?" Yi Qingyu pursed her lips and asked again.
"Mystic Iron Mountain."
"Mystic Iron Mountain? What kind of place is that?"
"I can't explain it all at once. Why are you so curious? Just rest here well, I'll be back soon."
Seeing Lin Fan really about to leave, Yi Qingyu suddenly panicked, showing a panicked expression like a little girl, her bright eyes brimming with tears, biting her lower lip, looking pitiful.
Lin Fan chuckled helplessly.
"What are you afraid of?"
"I can't move now... If you're not here... what if... what if a beast comes and takes me away?"
"So who do you think is scarier, me or a beast?"
"Both are scary..." Yi Qingyu said, pouting and blinking her eyes.
Lin Fan nearly spat out blood in exasperation, rolling his eyes, almost fainting.
After exhausting his Spiritual Power to save her, he found himself repaid with ingratitude.
"If you say so, fine, just wait to be taken by a beast then."
Lin Fan waved his hand and walked away without turning back.
Yi Qingyu suddenly panicked and shouted, "Hey, are you really leaving?! Really just leaving me here?!"
From a distance, Lin Fan's impatient voice echoed.
"Just have a good rest, there are no beasts in this godforsaken place!"
"Oh..."
Hearing Lin Fan's words, Yi Qingyu felt her heart settle, letting out a long sigh of relief.
But what kind of place is this, what on earth is Mystic Iron Mountain.
She curiously looked around but couldn't make sense of it.
...
Lin Fan decided not to disturb Yi Qingyu's rest, hoping she could calm down and accept the truth.
Otherwise, knowing that her whole body had been seen by him would definitely make her fly into a rage, scolding him harshly.
After all, it was unavoidable in the process of healing and saving her.
Therefore, he decided to first check on the Divine Phoenix.
"Divine Phoenix, Divine Phoenix."
Lin Fan searched but did not see any sign of the Divine Phoenix and guessed she was hiding, so he called out twice.
Just as his words fell.
A fierce wind roared.
A cloud of black mist rose and swirled in the air, landing instantly before Lin Fan.
The black mist dispersed.
The Divine Phoenix appeared.
Lin Fan quickly greeted her.
"Divine Phoenix."
"Don't come over."
Yet.
The Divine Phoenix's expression was unusually calm, without a ripple, cold and clear as the moon, like an emotionless machine.
Lin Fan froze, stopping abruptly, his brow slightly furrowing, his expression becoming grave.
"Divine Phoenix?"
The Divine Phoenix remained silent, coldly staring at Lin Fan, her eyes flickering.
Though she tried hard to appear indifferent and unconcerned.
But her eyes ultimately betrayed her.
Even if she could control her expressions, she couldn't control her gaze.
From the Divine Phoenix's eyes, Lin Fan saw a hint of tenderness and helplessness.
He suddenly felt heartache.
"I'm sorry."
He took a deep breath, gently saying as he tentatively took a step closer to the Divine Phoenix.
The Divine Phoenix neither refused nor agreed, ignoring Lin Fan's step forward.
"Why?"
Unbeknownst to him, the Divine Phoenix's heart skipped a beat, her throat slightly choked.
"No reason, I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Lin Fan's voice became softer, like a spring breeze brushing gently, extremely soothing.
The Divine Phoenix's hardened heart instantly softened.
"Who exactly is she, do you not owe me an explanation?"
"I haven't lied to you. She really is the Shennong Clan Leader's sister, entrusted by the Clan Leader to bring her to Mystic Iron Mountain for treatment, that's all."
"Is she also your woman?"
"..."
Lin Fan remained silent at her question.
Because he didn't know what to say, nor how to say it.
The future was uncertain, and carelessly answering would be deceiving the Divine Phoenix.
"Not yet."
He took a deep breath, looking straight into the Divine Phoenix's eyes, his expression very serious.
"Not now? What about the future?"
"I don't know."
Lin Fan answered truthfully; the future was unpredictable, he was no prophet.
The Divine Phoenix bit her lip slightly, nodding.
In her heart, she understood that a talented man like Lin Fan would be adored by many women. She had seen the women beside Lin Fan before.
But she didn't know why this time she felt such anger.
"I've neglected you lately, it's my fault."
Seeing the Divine Phoenix gently lower her head, Lin Fan took the opportunity to approach her step by step while speaking.
The black mist surrounding the Divine Phoenix gradually dissipated.
This also signified her gradually opening her heart.
Gradually forgiving Lin Fan.
Keeping her head down, the Divine Phoenix remained silent, feeling Lin Fan getting closer, his presence becoming more pronounced.
She wanted to refuse, yet couldn't bear to, her mind in chaos.
"Divine Phoenix."
Lin Fan suddenly called, causing the Divine Phoenix's heart to tremble; she looked up suddenly, startled, only to find Lin Fan standing right in front of her.
The Divine Phoenix let out a soft "ah," intending to retreat.
But Lin Fan quickly wrapped his arm around her slender waist, pulling her into an embrace.
Feeling Lin Fan's warmth, the Divine Phoenix could no longer suppress her emotions, tears flowed uncontrollably, soaking Lin Fan's shoulder.
"I'm sorry."
Lin Fan whispered softly into the Divine Phoenix's ear.
Suddenly!
The Divine Phoenix felt a surge of warmth entering her body from all directions, converging towards her heart.
The warmth didn't spare any part of her body.
Finally, like rivers merging into the sea, it crashed into her heart.
"Whew—"
She widened her eyes suddenly, her confusion fading away, her heart like a heavy black mist being cleared away, regained brightness.
At this moment.
Lin Fan's body suddenly weakened, collapsing into the Divine Phoenix's embrace.
"Lin Fan?!"
"Whew... too tired... you're too hasty and beset by Heart Demons, if not dispelled, it might endanger your life..."
Lin Fan weakly said, showing a slight smile.
"What, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine, just exhausted my Spiritual Power saving her... and used a bit on you too, it's nothing..."
The Divine Phoenix's eyes flickered, she hugged Lin Fan tightly, tears flowing like rain.
