Yu Caidie still had her veil on, and only the outline of her face could be seen. However, just her eyes that looked like a pair of luminous moons were enough to bewitch anyone. An enchanting fragrance was about her, and her temperament made her seem like a fairy, one with remarkable beauty and allure. Her beauty alone could humble any genius.
Such a woman was personally feeding Xiang Shaoyun spirit spring water with one arm around him. The sight was enough to drive anyone mad with envy. Even Xiang Shaoyun himself was completely bewitched.
How I wish I can lie in her embrace forever, thought Xiang Shaoyun inwardly.
”Open your mouth,” Yu Caidie's warm and gentle voice rang out.
Looking at Xiang Shaoyun's pale face, Yu Caidie felt like something was gripping at her heart. She had no idea why she was feeling this way, but she did not let any of her emotions show.
Xiang Shaoyun did not open his mouth. Rather, he leaned into her embrace and enjoyed her gentleness. But his enjoyment did not last long as his mouth was soon forced open. A drop of millennium spirit spring water then entered his throat.
”Rest. We will depart when you are well again,” Yu Caidie's voice rang out. He then noticed that she was no longer by his side.
Ahhh, I still haven't enjoyed myself enough, grumbled Xiang Shaoyun inwardly.
He might look weak right now, but in truth, he had already refined two drops of lightning liquid. He had actually recovered considerably, and he was merely pretending to be weak.
In the past, a single drop of lightning liquid would be enough to heal him. But now, two drops of lightning liquid had only helped him recover by about 30 or 40 percent. Even when coupled with Yu Caidie's millenium spirit spring, he had only recovered by about 50 percent. It was evident his exhaustion had been very harsh this time.
He was forced to sit cross-legged and to use a large amount of spirit crystals to recover more of his combat prowess. After all, in his current state, things could get very dangerous. He would never rely on others for his own safety.
While Xiang Shaoyun was recovering, the others were doing the same. Two of them had been killed in the battle, while the others had sustained injuries of differing degrees. Even so, just the fact that not all of them had been slaughtered by the Devil Emperors proved how extraordinary they were.
Suddenly, Tang Longfei sent Di Tong a voice transmission, ”Di Tong, I know you want to kill Xiang Shaoyun. Remember this. Before you kill him, you have to get through me.”
Di Tong looked at Tang Longfei nearby and replied, ”Tang Longfei, since when have the people from city hall become such busybodies?”
”That is not something you need to know about. Don't think we are clueless about what your Di Clan did at the Ziling Sect. You will regret what you did one day,” replied Tang Longfei with a displeased tone. He then sank into silence.
Di Tong thought to himself in agitation, I will definitely kill Xiang Shaoyun. Not even you can stop me, Tang Longfei!I
But when he thought of how Xiang Shaoyun had been able to kill a third-stage Devil Emperor with one hit, he felt a chill creep up his spine. He had initially planned to throw caution to the wind and kill Xiang Shaoyun with everything he had while Xiang Shaoyun was injured.
That eventually led to him instigating Su Jun to kill Xiang Shaoyun. He was supposed to stay behind as a backup and would only act if Xiang Shaoyun managed to escape. But he had not expected that Tang Longfei would stop Su Jun, causing him to lose the chance to kill Xiang Shaoyun. On top of that, he had made Su Jun his enemy as well. His plan had failed terribly and had backfired on himself. If he attacked now, he had zero chances of succeeding. He could only focus on s.n.a.t.c.hing the position of Yu Clan's son-in-law before trying anything else.
A day pa.s.sed quickly, and everyone had mostly recovered. Xiang Shaoyun was the only one still meditating. Everyone wanted to urge him to stop and start moving, but since Yu Caidie wasn't saying anything, it wasn't proper for them to say anything either.
