The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 872 - 480: The Statue

Miluo laughed, "Alright, I’ll take him away, do you agree?"

Is this person pretending to be crazy with her? The pain from the wound on her chest was getting worse, and she had no desire to talk more, "Disagree. He injured my men, and this debt cannot be settled easily." Whether the two Hidden Guards were injured by Qing Ji’s or Wenren Bo’s subordinates, she couldn’t just let it go. Otherwise, her subordinates would be disheartened.

"This debt cannot be settled easily, but it can be calculated in the long run." Miluo seemed oblivious to her impatient tone, "Shall we deal with the battlefield first and discuss later?"

She pressed her lips together. Although Miluo and Qing Ji were brothers, they were more like mortal enemies fighting to the death. He would definitely not let Qing Ji fall into an outsider’s hands. Unless she fell out with Miluo, Qing Ji would probably end up in Miluo’s hands in the end. All she wanted was to negotiate better terms with him, but right now her body was not suitable for negotiations.

She sighed lightly and moved aside. Shi Wuya took Qing Ji back to the giant eagle’s back. Miluo reached out to her, "Would you mind riding down together?" In his Blood Jade Eyes, a faint gleam flashed. Ning Xiaoxian thought, did he see that she was injured and wanted to give her a ride? 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

She shook her head, refusing his kindness, turned around, and was about to activate the spell to tame the tool and descend when suddenly her chest hurt sharply, and her vision went black.

She stumbled twice and could no longer stand, falling straight down.

"Ning Xiaoxian!" The next second, she was embraced tightly around the waist, held firmly in someone’s arms and then smelled a slightly unfamiliar yet pleasant male scent. Instinctively, she knew who this person was.

After gasping for air, she managed to open her eyes, and sure enough, saw the pair of Blood Jade Eyes close at hand, filled with unhidden worry, "Where are you hurt?" Then he actually stuffed a pill into her mouth, casually wiped her lip and said, "You’re bleeding."

"What did you feed me?" Why does the wound hurt so much? She sighed inwardly, knowing the reason herself. Hardly taking two hits from the White Bear was very damaging to her body, and just now the person stabbing the straw man happened to strike her chest wound, adding to her injuries, probably causing internal bleeding now. Just now, she had suppressed the injuries with all her might to catch up. But the more suppressed, the more powerful the eruption of injury.

"Nine-Turned Jade Pill." Miluo replied while pressing her back, transferring demonic power into her body to check the wound, "You’re very seriously hurt." Ning Xiaoxian gave a light "Hmm", feeling very uncomfortable with outsider’s demonic power running inside her body. But speaking of which, Miluo’s embrace was very warm, and his arms unexpectedly solid and strong.

"Let go, I can walk myself." She said weakly, patting his arm that was wrapped around her waist.

"No! You’re too weak at the moment, let’s talk after landing." His eyes held a smile, not returning to the giant eagle’s back, but instead floating down with the magic artifact. Earlier, when he embraced her, seeing her face turning pale as gold paper, with blood trickling from the corners of her mouth, he felt a sudden heartache for no reason. This woman had always been strong and stubborn in front of him, when had she been so weak? Then he realized her body was very light and soft, tender as if without bones, comfortable to hold, making reluctant to let go, even wanting to squeeze hard a few times.

This woman, why doesn’t she know that a touch of feminine vulnerability is the most endearing? He muttered inwardly.

But he was not able to hold her until landing. Once Ning Xiaoxian regained some strength, she raised her hand against his chest, trying to push herself out of his embrace. It’s a joke, the vinegar jar God Demon Prison probably would get extremely jealous, for her own safety she should keep a clear boundary with this demon.

Miluo subconsciously tightened his grip, unwilling to let go, seeing her pale face made his heart truly ache. From the giant eagle, Qing Ji saw this and felt upset, sneered coldly, "What a pair of dogs!"

Miluo was not angry but happy. This seemed not to be the first time someone called him and Ning Xiaoxian the pair of dogs, and it sounded rather enjoyable. Ning Xiaoxian was startled to see his face suddenly show a smile, wondering what stirred this fox.

At this point, Qi Zai had just finished the fight in hand, seeing this situation, ran over like an arrow, turning human and almost snatched her from Miluo’s embrace. Only his force was too strong, making Ning Xiaoxian wince in pain.
