Chapter 259: Chapter 259: I Won’t Leave You Alone (2)_1

"I’ve said before, my first kiss was for you, so you need to take responsibility for me. Since you’re mine and I’m yours, of course I can’t just leave you here alone. If something happened to you, who would be responsible for me?" Zi Xiao said.

Dugu Qianye was left speechless by his words.

After having taken an elixir and rested in his arms for a while, she could now barely manage to fight. She manifested a longsword with her spiritual power, left his embrace, and said, "Then let’s fight together."

The moment Dugu Qianye left, he felt a hollow feeling in his heart, but her words made him happy again. Although he really wanted her to be under his protection, he knew she wasn’t a woman who liked to hide behind others. As long as she was willing to let him stay by her side, fighting shoulder to shoulder was also good.

He took out an elixir and swallowed it, then he started to fight back-to-back with Dugu Qianye. Even if injured, they were determined to sever the heads of spiritual beasts!

Perhaps their reckless fighting style was too frenzied, for even the irrational spiritual beasts felt fear, retreating one by one, leaving behind those that were dead or too injured to move lying on the ground.

Dugu Qianye’s clothes were soaked through with blood, some her own, some that of the spiritual beasts, sopping wet enough to wring out. Seeing the spiritual beasts withdraw, she took a few steps and suddenly fell to one knee, the sword in her hand dissipating into spiritual energy as she collapsed toward the ground. Before she could touch the ground, a pair of hands caught her.

The person was not very familiar, but the scent was incredibly familiar. This was Dugu Qianye’s last thought before she lost consciousness.

Having no idea how much time had passed, Dugu Qianye felt a burning pain all over her body, followed by something cool moving over her. Wherever it passed, the burning pain subsided bit by bit.

She wanted to wake up, but couldn’t open her eyes, and then she passed out again.

"Mm."

Dugu Qianye felt like she was being watched again, an instinctive reaction that roused her from deep sleep. Opening her eyes, she found herself leaning against a warm chest.

"You’re awake," a deep voice came from above, and Dugu Qianye lifted her head to see a clean-shaven chin.

"Mhm," Dugu Qianye responded, looking around.

"What are you looking for?" Zi Xiao asked.

"I keep feeling like something is watching me," Dugu Qianye said, not finding anything suspicious and taking the opportunity to survey the cave they were in.

"Where is this?" Dugu Qianye rose from Zi Xiao’s embrace and noticed he was leaning against the wall with only a couple of clothes for cushioning.

Seeing Dugu Qianye move away, Zi Xiao didn’t say anything but answered her question.

"A cave not far from that terrible battlefield."

Zi Xiao’s words brought back the image of the frenzied Beast, her eyelids drooped slightly and she grew contemplative. She glanced at Zi Xiao, who was pale from excessive blood loss, and asked, "How come you’re in the Spirit Void Secret Realm?"

"Hei Zi, Qie Yue, and I entered the portal right behind you, but we didn’t see you. When we came out, we were here," Zi Xiao smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothes caused by Dugu Qianye’s sleeping, saying, "Later, we three realized there were no people around, so we captured a spiritual beast to ask and learned that this is a secret realm on the Spirit Void Continent. Since the spiritual energy here is still quite abundant, we began to cultivate while waiting for the secret realm to open."

"Have you two undergone Phantom Power Spiritualization?" Dugu Qianye asked. Without spiritualization, how could they have survived the past two years?

"We’ve already spiritualized. Someone we knew back then gave us a small disk for the Spiritual Formation Array," Zi Xiao replied.

It was an obvious flaw, but Dugu Qianye didn’t probe deeper and continued, "What about those two?"

"Recently, things have been a bit odd around here. They said they were going to check it out, and I was too lazy to join them, so I stayed nearby to cultivate," Zi Xiao said. "Hearing the sound of the beast horde, I thought they might be in trouble. It’s good I didn’t go with them, else I wouldn’t have been able to save you yesterday. I would have regretted that for the rest of my life."

Dugu Qianye ignored the implications in his words. Feeling sticky and uncomfortable, she wanted to take a bath and change her clothes. She found she could now contact the Refining Demon Pot. Remembering that Zi Xiao had fed her an elixir as soon as he appeared, she asked, "Were you able to use your Space Ring while you were there?"

"No," Zi Xiao understood what she was thinking and said, "When we arrived here, we found that some areas unexpectedly blocked the connection with the Space Ring, so we took some essential items out."

Dugu Qianye nodded. If they had been living here for two years like this, they must have a good understanding of the place.

Wait a moment! The clothes on her body weren’t hers, were they?

Feeling the disapproving look from Dugu Qianye, Zi Xiao shrugged and said, "You were badly injured at the time, and your clothes were covered in blood. I had no choice but to undress you and put you in my clothes. You can rest assured, I changed your clothes with my eyes closed. But then again, since I am yours now, what does it matter if I see you?"

Dugu Qianye’s face grew darker with Zi Xiao’s words. Seeing he had angered her, Zi Xiao stood up and said, "There’s a bucket of water in the cave. I’m also going to wash up."

Dugu Qianye gave him a glance and turned to enter the cave behind her. He took advantage of her unconsciousness to touch her inappropriately, good, very good, she had noted this! Considering he had just saved her, she decided not to hold it against him today. But if he ever crossed her again in the future, hmph...

The cave was not large, with a wooden bucket in the middle filled with water. She used her spiritual power to heat the water and then called out Qingluan to keep watch. Although she believed Zi Xiao would not peek, one can never be too cautious.

"Master, how are you?" Qingluan appeared and immediately examined Dugu Qianye, noting the scarred wounds on her body, "Master, are you okay?"

"I’m fine. Don’t worry about me," Dugu Qianye said. "I want to take a bath. Stand guard at the entrance for a while."

Although their connection had been severed, they could still feel her injuries from within the Refining Demon Pot, and everyone had been worried sick for her. Thankfully, she was okay!

Confirming that Dugu Qianye was not seriously harmed, Qingluan guarded the entrance and even conjured a temporary wall with spiritual power to block the entrance.

Dugu Qianye removed the oversized clothes from her body, revealing it riddled with scars. She stepped into the bucket and touched the wounds on her body.

Bai Fenglan, since I didn’t die this time, your countdown to hell is about to begin!

Having Dudu change the water several times, Dugu Qianye comfortably soaked in the bath, taking the opportunity to prepare a medicinal bath with some herbs. When she got out, her injuries were significantly alleviated.

She took out a set of plain clothes from the Space Ring, dressed, called Qingluan back, and emerged to find Zi Xiao already waiting outside. After grooming, he looked much more refreshed.
