Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1705 - 1710: Is This Peace?

Qingdie's body trembled, as if struck by lightning.

She had given up hope before.

Summoning her courage, she just wanted to vent the hardships and fatigue of these days.

Unexpectedly, Xia Liu actually agreed to let her stay here and take care of him.

"Go and fetch me a bucket of water."

"Huh? What?"

"Didn't you say you want to take care of me? Hurry up."

"Oh oh oh! Where should I go, what should I fetch?"

Qingdie looked puzzled, having just climbed the mountain, she had no idea where the water source was.

"Look, start from here, after ten miles you'll see a mountain spring."

"Alright!"

After getting the bucket and instructions, Qingdie hurried to set off.

Afraid that Xia Liu would dislike her.

He, now heavily injured, needed someone to care for him too much.

In a short while, Qingdie returned to the cave with a full bucket of water.

Xia Liu was healing himself through inner sight, she could sense the Spiritual Energy.

Not disturbing Xia Liu, Qingdie used her hands to wipe the dusty places inside the cave.

By evening, she took her sword deep into the Mountain of Dao.

To hunt wild beasts for Xia Liu.

Carrying a porcupine and a few wild herbs, Qingdie contentedly took out the pot she had bought in the market and started cooking for Xia Liu.

Seeing that Xia Liu's wounds hadn't healed completely, his whole body weak in blood and energy.

Qingdie even added some Spiritual Medicine to the food.

Not only preserving the delicious taste of the food, but also emitting a faint medicinal fragrance.

It's truly nourishing.

Inside the inner chamber, while healing, Xia Liu intended to tease Qingdie.

But she was too capable.

Completely unlike a young lady.

She was sincerely here to take care of him.

"Daoist Xia, you're out, just wait a little longer, and it'll be ready to eat."

Seeing Xia Liu walk out of the cave, Qingdie said with joy.

"Hm, no hurry."

Xia Liu thought for a moment and continued, "If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Xia, or Brother Xia Liu."

"Pfft! I'll just call you Brother Xia, calling you brother feels a bit awkward."

Saying this, Qingdie opened the lid of the pot, the aroma wafting out.

The tables and chairs she bought at the market were taken out, Qingdie carefully helped Xia Liu to sit.

Xia Liu silently watched all of this.

Not knowing what was on his mind.

While tasting the food, Xia Liu could feel several streams of warmth running through his meridians.

That was the power of the Spiritual Medicine contained in the soup.

"Young lady, you are thoughtful."

"Brother Xia, just call me Qingdie..."

"Ahem, Qingdie, thank you for coming all the way to take care of me." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"It's nothing, you've done so much for us, this is what I should do."

Qingdie wasn't really thinking that much.

But only by expressing it this way, could she be accepted by Xia Liu, could she stay to take care of him.

Xia Liu said no more.

Did he really make this sacrifice for this piece of land...

Perhaps so.

Ten days passed by again.

Qingdie seemed to have gotten used to the daily life.

When bored, she would also enter into cultivation.

At mealtime, she would prepare food for Xia Liu again.

Xia Liu spoke fewer words, and eventually, none at all.

Because he remembered what the Beast King had said last.

A month later, the Beast Clan would begin to invade the Western Region.

Starting from the Western Region, waging war in the Kunwu Realm.

Today was exactly the deadline the Beast King mentioned.

Perhaps right now at the Northern Border Frontier, many cultivators were fiercely resisting the powerful Beast Clan.

If the Northern Border were breached, then next, the major cities of the Great Western Region would fall one after another.

He hoped they could hold on.

During Xia Liu's imagination.

Over the sea of the Northern Border Frontier.

A mass of Beast Clan powerhouses surged out.

The sky suddenly changed.

The oppressive force clashed with the first line of defense at the Northern Border.

The Martial Emperor, Yi Xiu, and others led countless Human Race powerhouses in direct confrontation with the Beast Clan.

The war between the Human Race and the Beast Clan, instantly ignited.

The skies proclaimed through endless flames, that life-or-death struggle would ensue.

On the Mountain of Dao, the serene life still continued.

In the deepest part of the cave.

Xia Liu unwrapped the bandages tied around him.

Revealing the flesh and blood, scarlet and shocking.

But the good news was.

The bleeding had completely stopped.

As long as a few more months pass, the wounds should fully heal.

However, the injuries inside his body, Xia Liu hadn't fully healed yet.

With the current Cultivation of merely the seventh level of Qi Cultivation, he couldn't exert the second-tier Wood Origin Force.

To heal the wounds in a short time.

Was nearly impossible.

Day by day passed, and Xia Liu was continuously recovering.

Three months later, the wounds on Xia Liu's left side had completely healed.

At this point, his Cultivation had also recovered to the tenth level of Qi Cultivation.

Able to mobilize quite a bit of Spiritual Energy.

Plus Qingdie's Spiritual Medicine diet, Xia Liu was recovering every day.

This day, as Qingdie brought a bucket of water back to the cave.

She found Xia Liu alone, standing with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distant depths.

"Brother Xia, your injuries aren't fully healed yet, don't come out and catch a chill, winter is approaching, and they say snow falls in the Western Region, don't catch cold."

"Snowfall..."

As Xia Liu murmured, the sky quietly changed, becoming more oppressive, and suddenly, fine snow started to fall.

"Ah, just as we speak, Brother Xia, quickly go inside the cave to rest."

Qingdie obviously didn't worry, she had the Energy Body of the twelfth level of Qi Cultivation and close-fitting Armor, she could withstand extremely low temperatures for a long time.

But Xia Liu, with his serious injuries, had a constitution similar to ordinary people.

If he froze again, it would be even harder to recover.

"No need to worry, I'm not as weak as you think."

As Xia Liu spoke, the aura of the tenth level of Qi Cultivation emanated.

Feeling this aura, Qingdie believed it unbelievably.

But quickly adjusted her mindset.

Even a bit indifferent.

Xia Liu's healing meant he would leave.

In the future, she wouldn't be able to have such a peaceful life with him anymore.

"Qingdie, thank you for everything during this time, now I have nothing to give you as a reward, but if you're willing, I can teach you the higher-level techniques I know."

"Are you saying you want to take me as a disciple?"

Hearing this news, Qingdie's expression became splendid.

Her heart was in turmoil.

She did not want this outcome at all.

But what else could she do, what else could she say?

"Yes, that's what I mean, but there's no master-disciple relationship between us."

"Can a disciple fall in love with the master?"

"Pfft!"

Xia Liu nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

This girl was too bold.

What's the meaning of this...

"Alright alright, just kidding, I know you already have so many women, there's no room in your heart for anyone else."

"That's not exactly true, the people who are good to me, I remember, maybe not romantic fate, but there can be a teacher-disciple fate, there can be a kindred spirit fate..."

Xia Liu said.

"Hehe, if Brother Xia says so, I naturally want to be your disciple, because only a disciple can act spoiled with the master, can get the master's protection and affection..."
