Chapter 2218: Greeting the Master
Because Qiu Honglei’s body was so weak, the Jing Teng sisters had decided to just give her the jade coffin while they themselves slept in a room inside the paradise dwelling.
Zu An and Mi Li moved toward the jade coffin, opening it and seeing the beauty sleeping within. The stunning young lady was now completely pale. If not for the bit of life force that could occasionally be felt from her, she could easily be mistaken for a corpse.
Zu An took out the jade bottle, his usually steady hand shaking a bit. Even though he had found the stalk of Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine, he didn’t know what he would do if he couldn't save her. He didn’t even dare to pick Qiu Honglei up for fear that he could end up extinguishing those embers of life.
He brought the jade bottle to her lips. A drop of golden immortal medicine entered her mouth. A wave of fragrance spread throughout the jade coffin, and Qiu Honglei’s cheeks grew visibly rosier.
Zu An immediately started to becexcited.
It was effective as expected!
He poured another drop of immortal medicine into her mouth. Soon, a ripple of gold spread out from her lips and surrounded her entire body. Her entire body seemed to even be shining a bit.
Zu An was overjoyed, exclaiming, “Her body is continuously healing!”
He continued to pay attention to her condition. Qiu Honglei gradually stabilized a bit; more than that, a trace of life force even appeared within her. Even though it was small, it was vigorous. It would help her gradually recover shortly after.
Mi Li also nodded in admiration. “It seems two drops of the immortal medicine elixir are already enough.”
Just then, Jing Teng cried out in alarm. Even though she was sleeping, how could she not notice when something so big was happening in the paradise dwelling? She cout and took a look. She was incredibly shocked, exclaiming, “It’s the energy of an immortal medicine!” With her knowledge and experience, it wasn’t surprising that she knew about immortal medicines.
Dark Jing Teng was more direct. “Why didn’t you lethave a taste of something so good?” She licked her lips as she spoke and swallowed with difficulty several times.
Zu An explained, “I just obtained the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine.”
Mi Li said, “The Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine is still really young. If we force out any more, that might end up damaging it irreparably.”
“Isn’t there still another drop?” Dark Jing Teng got up onto her tiptoes and looked at his bottle.
Zu An replied seriously, “I still have other uses for this drop.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDark Jing Teng immediately becupset. “Are you going to give it to another woman? We sisters helped you so much, and yet you didn’t even know to thank us. How ungrateful! Big sis, let’s leave, this guy isn’t worth caring about.”
White Jing Teng said in annoyance, “Enough already. Big brother Zu definitely has an important use for it. I don’t think he would go so far as to use it to flirt with another woman.”
Zu An was speechless.
White Jing Teng’s words are like needles concealed in silk cloth!
He coughed lightly and could only explain, “This is all to help a friend. Because of something unexpected, he ended up dying. I wanted to see if I could save him.”
He was naturally talking about Gao Ying. Normally, no matter how strong a cultivator’s regenerative abilities were, the head was the source of the six yang. If it was removed, one definitely wouldn’t be able to live. But now, he had summoned Gao Ying’s soul again, and could use the authority of the underworld emperor to heal him... at least, provided that his body could be saved first. That step couldn't be skipped.
Zu An just didn’t know if Gao Ying's body could still be repaired. He didn’t think the chances were all that great. In such a chaotic battle, the corpse could have already been long destroyed, or it could have already rotted. At that point, he really wouldn’t be able to reverse the situation. But Gao Ying was a good friend, so he had to at least give it a try. How could he just not do anything?
When she learned that it was to save a friend who had already died, Dark Jing Teng’s expression finally eased up a bit. She was going to say something when White Jing Teng took control over their body. She had a somewhat apologetic expression as she said, “Sorry about what I said earlier. I didn’t know...”
Zu An cut her off. “It’s fine. It isn’t your fault. Once the immortal medicine matures a bit, I’ll definitely get sfor you two.”
White Jing Teng said bashfully, “You don’t actually need to go that far...”
Before she even finished, Dark Jing Teng took over. “Even if you don’t want it, I want it. But I heard that it takes a really long tfor the immortal medicine to mature, so big brother Zu has to fillup through that other method.”
Mi Li and Zu An were speechless.
“Can you shut your mouth?!” White Jing Teng finally couldn't take it anymore. Her little sister was always embarrassing her, and this time, it was even in front of Zu An's master. It really was too humiliating!
She nervously bowed toward the two of them. “We were just woken up because of the immortal medicine. I... I’m going back to sleep now.” After saying that, she hurriedly returned to her room. The back of her neck was bright red.
Mi Li couldn't help but say with a smile, “Those two sisters are pretty interesting.”
Zu An’s mood was quite good at the moment. He remarked, “They are indeed fun.”
The sisters often used 'carrot and stick' tactics. Whenever White Jing Teng was too embarrassed, she had Dark Jing Teng speak for her. In truth, she seemed to be rather cunning herself. But Dark Jing Teng always said the craziest things, escalating the situation beyond what White Jing Teng could endure.
“And what do you mean by 'they are fun'?” Mi Li looked at him with an ambiguous smile.
“???” Zu An turned to look at her. This woman had actually made that kind of joke!
Just then, there was a groan from beside them as Shang Liuyu gradually woke up. It turned out that after smelling the fragrance of the immortal medicine, she had felt her fatigue improve considerably. Her body also recovered a bit.
Zu An looked at Mi Li and asked curiously, “Are you not going to hide yourself?”
This woman had always behaved so mysteriously, not wanting to meet anyone else. What was going on today?
Mi Li harrumphed and said, “I am your master, not your mistress. Why would I need to hide? These women of yours should all be offeringtea respectfully.”
Zu An was speechless. He couldn't be bothered to mock her back at the moment, and hurriedly ran over to help Shang Liuyu up. He exclaimed happily, “Big sis Shang, you’re up!”
“Ah Zu~” When she realized that the first person she was seeing after waking up was Zu An, Shang Liuyu felt really at ease. “Hm? It smells amazing here.”
She sniffed the air gently. She wanted to find the source of the smell, but then she suddenly saw Mi Li next to her. The woman was dressed entirely in red, and her figure was dazzling. Judging from her expression, she seemed to be the proud and confident type.
Is this also one of Ah Zu’s women?
Wasn’t there that Jing Teng before I fainted? Why did another one appear so soon?
For sreason, she just felt a bit strange when she realized that.
Is the smell coming from her?
Not even women can resist this kind of fragrance, let alone a simple-headed man like Zu An.
Mi Li gave Zu An a look, seemingly a bit annoyed.
Zu An felt a huge headache. He led Shang Liuyu up to Mi Li and said, “Big sis Shang, this is my master.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Master?” Shang Liuyu immediately becreally embarrassed.
So it was a misunderstanding!
“Greetings, master.”
Mi Li had an ambiguous smile as she remarked, “Oh? You changed your way of speaking so quickly.”
Shang Liuyu was now even more hard-pressed and said awkwardly, “Ah Zu and I don’t have that kind of relationship. W'are just pure siblings.”
“Siblings?” Mi Li gave Zu An a look, her expression seemingly saying 'you really know how to mix up how you play'.
Zu An didn’t feel like playing along with her whims and asked, “Can you stop with your jokes already? Big sis Shang is still weak right now.”
Mi Li curled her lips in annoyance.
This guy is already going into his protective mode?
If I really were one of his lovers, wouldn’t I be seething in anger right now?
Zu An looked at Shang Liuyu considerately and asked, “Big sis Shang, do you feel better now?”
“Yeah, much better. This fragrance smells so good, I feel as if my mind has cleared up a lot already,” Shang Liuyu replied.
“This is the smell of the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine...” Zu An roughly explained what had happened to her.
“Then lady Qiu can be saved?” Shang Liuyu asked happily. She knew why Zu An had entered the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons. Now that everything had worked out, it couldn't be better.
“Yeah, but she might need a bit more rest before she can wake up again,” Zu An said. “Honglei’s injuries were too severe last time. Even the immortal medicine elixir needs tto repair her body.”
“That’s good. As long as she’s no longer in danger, she can slowly recuperate. The Dragon Palace has all kinds of healing medicines. I’ll find them for you later.”
“Then I’ll thank you in her place now,” Zu An said; his mood had improved a lot.
“There’s no need for you to be so polite with me,” Shang Liuyu replied.
Zu An she suddenly noticed that Mi Li was smiling as if she was his aunt. He immediately felt embarrassed.
This woman is normally really carefree and aloof, and she’s like that even around Chuyan, but why is she acting like this in front of Shang Liuyu? Is it because she wants her to greet her respectfully?
“Alright, I won’t disturb you young’uns anymore. I’m going back to sleep as well.” Mi Li nodded toward Shang Liuyu before disappearing.
