Book 4: Near Blood - Chapter 29: All According to Plan (1/2)

When he reawoke, three days had passed

Su Chen lifted up his head and looked at his wound It had closed up significantly

Su Chen carefully used the wall to prop himself up

“Don’t move!”

Zhu Xianyao’s voice called out from behind him

She hurried over to him “Your wounds are quite serious Lie back down”

She pushed him back down as she spoke

Su Chen said helplessly, “My wounds have almost healed”

This was the truth He had passed out because of the ht Demon had stabbed him quite deeply, she had steered clear of his vitals, so Su Chen’s body quickly recovered Su Chen actually needed to useprocess and to knock himself out

“You don’t need to coh that blade strike missed your vitals, the blade Qi it sent into your body is too frightening and saturated your whole body If it weren’t for the strength of your Pig Dragon Bloodline and the fact that you seeht not have made it”

“But the blade Qi has all left now Try it if you don’t believe rabbed Zhu Xianyao’s hand and placed it on his chest

He hadn’t thought about it too much when he made thehim to realize that his action was a bit too rash He io

Unexpectedly, Zhu Xianyao didn’t re to sense his heartbeat

The two of the time, Zhu Xianyao seemed to suddenly start and removed her jade-like hand

“Oh” Zhu Xianyao said in a low voice “There…… there isn’t a problem anymore”

“See? I told you I was fine,” Su Chen revealed a “dense” smile

Under normal circumstances, Zhu Xianyao should have reacted to this smile with annoyance

Unexpectedly, Zhu Xianyao continued to stare at him in a daze and didn’t seem to mind

Uh oh

Su Chen felt a trace of anxiety

He heard Zhu Xianyao say, “Tianyang, you did very well”

“What?” Su Chen didn’t understand

“Do you knoho the person who tried to assassinate you earlier was?”

“Who was he?”

“He was Feng Xihuo!” Zhu Xianyao said “He’s one of the Immortal Temple’s well-known assassins and has a record of 37 successful assassinations, so Realm cultivators! Yet not only did you stop his assassination atte”

Su Chen continued to smile dumbly, but even the du in Zhu Xianyao’s eyes

She stared at Su Chen and said, “You killed Feng Xihuo i your bloodline, which is proof of how strong you are More importantly, however, you were incredibly brave Even under those kinds of circu, you aren’t a coward; you were just always concealing your true nature Even you didn’t knoerful you could be”

“Oh…… Was I…… that good?” Su Chen stared at Zhu Xianyao doubtfully

“Yes!” Zhu Xianyao replied seriously

“Alright then”

If you’re that insistent about it, I can only agree

Oh, You Tianyang, it seems like I’ve already captured her heart for you Take it as your reward for being captured

With You Tianyang’s feelings for Zhu Xianyao, he ht really prefer to be captured if this was the outcome
