Chapter 282 – Even If They Met, They Would not Recognize Each Other (2/2)

If no-one came to save him, he would most certainly die.

”How did you end up together with that woman?”

She gazed at the forest across the reeds, and her brows rose up in displeasure, as she thought to herself, ”Chen Changsheng, you idiot! Just what did she promise you? How could you trust a human female?”

For her, the human that had left her the most bitter memories, besides the long-gone Wang Zhice, was that woman, the Tianhai Divine Empress.

Xu Yourong was very much like a young Tianhai Divine Empress. Taken together with that engagement that Chen Changsheng had talked about, it meant that she had an innate wariness of Xu Yourong. She did not have a single good impression of her.

She saw Xu Yourong save Chen Changsheng, then spent a very long time searching for the two. When she finally found them, she unexpectedly saw Xu Yourong leave once more.

This only increased the enmity she had towards Xu Yourong.

In her view, the reason why Xu Yourong had risked such danger to rescue Chen Changsheng last night was because the demons were watching. Now when Xu Yourong left Chen Changsheng to die, it was because there was no one there to see. The reason for all this was because Xu Yourong highly valued her reputation, viewing it as even more important than the lives of others, and even her own life as well.

This sort of woman was truly very cruel, hypocritical, and frightening.

She thought about the letter that Chen Changsheng had once described to her in the underground cave, she thought about those words written in the letter, and an expression of loathing appeared on her face.

To leave Chen Changsheng in these reeds as you walk off, letting him helplessly and slowly wait for his death, is that what you meant in your letter with 'do your best'?

Besides Chen Changsheng, she did not have any good impression about humans, so right now she was very angry. Moreover, she had invested a lot of blood into Chen Changsheng, true blood. She could not permit Chen Changsheng to die like this, or else that blood would go to waste. Then her first priority was to find a way for Chen Changsheng to survive.

How could she heal the wounds in Chen Changsheng's body?

She thought of a method, then an indescribable mixture of shame and rage appeared between her eyebrows, causing that red birthmark to seemingly glow.

”Remember, you owe me yet another life,” she said angrily to the unconscious Chen Changsheng.

With these words, she bent over and embraced Chen Changsheng, then nestled into his bosom. Then she turned into a black light and entered into his body.

A strand of extremely cold and extremely pure Qi emerged from Chen Changsheng's stomach, then it gradually returned into his body.

Chen Changsheng's internal organs were covered with a host of fine cuts, each one bleeding incessantly. That cold Qi caused the blood to stagnate and the flow to gradually cease. Simultaneously, both his pulse and his breathing also began to slow.

The water between the reeds became covered with a thin layer of frost.

Chen Changsheng's brow also began to develop a layer of frost.

At the same time, a jade ruyi appeared on his wrist.

After a while, there came the sound of water splashing about.

Xu Yourong walked out of the forest, carrying her skirt as she returned to that patch of reeds. What she had gone to do was a complete mystery.

Seeing the layer of frost over Chen Changsheng's brow and sensing that the surroundings were a little colder than they had been before, she slightly raised her brow, thinking that something had happened while she was gone.

But there was clearly nothing around this patch of reeds.

She took out her Fated Star Plate, her fingers seemingly inadvertently moving across it a few times.

The Fated Star Plate gave no indications. Those lines were extremely disorderly, in complete chaos. Just like how there were no stars in the night sky above the Garden of Zhou, she could not see a single thing in this plate.

Her injuries were too heavy, making it impossible to walk back to those gardens where the human cultivators had gathered. Then what should she do next?

She stretched out her hand and grabbed Chen Changsheng's belt, then began walking towards that cliff while carrying Chen Changsheng like he was a bundle.

Because she was not that tall, Chen Changsheng's face would occasionally dip into the water, causing a splash and waking up a few fish.

Just what did this person eat every day? He doesn't look fat, so why is he so heavy?

So she thought.
