Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 249 - 54: Qiu Zhihe’s Old Wound Flares Up

"I’ve been soaking all night, my skin is all wrinkly, and I’m so bored!"

At another Bone Marrow Cleansing Spring, Liu Su lay by the edge of the pool, yawning out of boredom.

Hammer Fairy was hugging her hammer, saying, "My hammer says it’s very comfortable, not bored."

Liu Su cut in, asking her, "Hey, Little Hammer, you’re so skilled, you must not be a nobody. Do you remember your name?"

Hammer Fairy was powerful, but seemed to have some mental issues, as she only seemed to remember her hammer, but not her own name.

Upon hearing Liu Su’s words, Hammer Fairy glared with wide eyes, "Who says I don’t know my name? I’m called Hammer Fairy!"

"..." Liu Su decided to ignore this fool.

"Susu! Susu, where are you?"

At this moment, Qin Gengyun’s voice came from outside. Liu Su immediately leaped out of the spring, cheerfully shouting:

"Dear, you finally remembered me, I’m here!"

Qin Gengyun suddenly appeared in front of her. Liu Su, upon seeing him, opened her eyes wide, jumping out of the pool to stand in front of Qin Gengyun, turning to warn Hammer Fairy:

"Little Hammer, you’re not allowed to look at my husband! Oh no!"

Before she could finish, Qin Gengyun had already picked her up, and with a swift move, both of their figures disappeared from the poolside.

The pool returned to silence, leaving behind a bewildered Little Hammer. After a while, she blinked, hugging her hammer:

"What’s there to see? It’s not even bigger than my hammer!"

Qin Gengyun brought Liu Su back to the Bone Marrow Cleansing Spring where Qiu Zhihe was. At this moment, Qiu Zhihe was still sitting in the spring, her face pale as gold paper, her forehead covered in fine sweat.

Liu Su exclaimed, "Oh no, Miss’s old ailment has flared up again!"

This was due to Xia Qinglian being besieged by experts from the Three Great Sects during the battle at Celestial Ridge Mountain, causing Ye Xiyue and Su Hongling’s Sword Qi to enter her body, making it difficult to remove.

As her cultivation recovered, the two foreign Sword Qi within her clashed more violently with her own Spiritual Power, causing her immense pain.

If the situation deteriorated, she would truly become possessed, her body reverting to Xia Qinglian’s true form, perhaps even losing all sanity, turning into a slaughter witch driven by hatred.

This kind of secret, Liu Su naturally dared not tell Qin Gengyun. Last time, when the Saintess’s injury flared up, she told Qin Gengyun it was due to an old ailment from her reckless cultivation in youth, becoming possessed.

Last time during the flare-up, the husband wasn’t around, and the Saintess almost reverted to Xia Qinglian.

This time, the Saintess forcefully suppressed the conflict of Spiritual Power within her, maintaining Qiu Zhihe’s appearance.

No one knew how much pain she was enduring.

Oh, Saintess, why do you do this to yourself?

Liu Su sighed internally, while Qin Gengyun was already urging, "Susu, hurry up!"

"Oh, coming!"

Without further delay, the two sat down at Qiu Zhihe’s sides, placing one hand on Qiu Zhihe’s lower abdomen, and the other on each other’s.

A light blue eye appeared above them, enveloping the three in its glow.

The Mist Spirit Bathing Technique.

An incense stick’s time later, Qiu Zhihe’s face regained some color, but she still looked pained.

Evidently, the "old ailment" still raged within her.

Qin Gengyun bit his lip, fully operating the Mist Spirit Eye, his heart filled with pain as he watched his wife suffer.

If only I were strong enough, strong enough to protect my wife and Susu, perhaps my wife wouldn’t need to practice anymore, wouldn’t have to endure such pain?

"Mist Spirit Eye? So small, not interesting."

A crisp voice rang out. Qin Gengyun and Liu Su turned to see Hammer Fairy squatting on the bank, holding the large hammer and watching them, chin on her hand.

Qin Gengyun was stunned, "Little Hammer? How did you get in here?"

The area around this Bone Marrow Cleansing Spring had several arrays set up by Qiu Zhihe. Qin Gengyun knew the array’s core, so he could come and go freely, but Hammer Fairy entered silently, which was surprising.

Even more shocking was that this girl was completely unashamed, squatting in front of the three completely naked, like it was nothing.

If not for the large hammer blocking most of the view, Qin Gengyun might have been forced to "admire" the endless plains.

But speaking of which, Little Hammer actually had extremely beautiful features, though not fully matured, giving her a somewhat youthful and innocent look.

But this innocence, in turn, gave her a unique charm.

Like a small cherry, though not as large as an apple, pineapple, or even watermelon, it was sweeter and more fulfilling.

However, this girl’s brain had a problem, completely disregarding the difference between men and women, squatting right in front of Qin Gengyun, practically inviting trouble.

Liu Su shouted in annoyance, "Dear, you’re not allowed to look, and Little Hammer, you’re not allowed to expose!"

Hammer Fairy still squatted by the pool, curiously watching Qiu Zhihe, muttering:

"There’s a familiar smell in her body, oh no, two smells, both annoying!"

Liu Su ignored her nonsense, repeatedly ushering her out:

"Little Hammer, get out! Isn’t it embarrassing to run around naked like this?"

Hammer Fairy blinked her eyes, "Aren’t you three naked too?"

"..."

Qin Gengyun said to Liu Su, "Susu, ignore her, concentrate!"

Qiu Zhihe’s situation was not optimistic, and they had to focus on helping her suppress the conflict of Spiritual Power within.

The two closed their eyes, concentrating on operating the Mist Spirit Eye.

Nearby, Hammer Fairy didn’t make any more noise, jumping into the pool with her hammer, curiously watching the trio.

Her gaze lingered on Liu Su and Qiu Zhihe’s chests before looking at her own, pouting unhappily, then went off to play somewhere else.

Day quickly passed and night fell again.

Qin Gengyun opened his eyes once more, letting out a slight sigh of relief.

This time, the wife’s flare-up was more intense than last time in Yunling Town, but fortunately, Qin Gengyun and Liu Su had already reached Foundation Establishment, and with the rich spiritual energy in the Bone Marrow Cleansing Spring, the Mist Spirit Bathing Technique was much more effective.

Thus, in only half a day, Qiu Zhihe’s condition had stabilized.

Subsequent recovery only required her own operation of Spiritual Power.

"Phew, finally it’s okay."

Liu Su also opened her eyes, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and got up to wipe Qin Gengyun’s sweat.

"Dear, are you tired? Wow?!"

Liu Su exclaimed in surprise, finally noticing someone standing by the pool.

"Fox Spirit, why are you spying on us?!"

Liu Su was startled, pointing at Si Minglan.

Qin Gengyun also saw Si Minglan, clearing his throat, a bit embarrassed.

Si Minglan gave him a glance, then moved her gaze away, her expression turning serious as she spoke in a low voice:

"I was tracking Yun Zhen earlier and discovered a really hidden house, heavily guarded outside. There must be more secrets hidden on Cloud Pattern Mountain that we don’t know about."
