C24 (1/2)
Lu Yi's appetite was not big, and at this moment, Jin Jian was exhausted. He did not have much appetite, so he forced himself to drink a few mouthfuls, and the fishy smell gradually filled him with some annoyance and malice towards the fish soup.
When she saw that he didn't want to drink anymore and didn't dare force him to, she knew that although the soup was still warm, it wasn't a cure. If she thought that the shadow who delivered the soup was so powerful, it might be able to help her and Jin Jian walk out of this cold snow without a trace of him coming back, so she didn't say a word and it would be difficult to place her hopes on him.
Thinking like this, Lu Yi hugged Jin Jian tighter. She pondered in her heart about when she should go out and see if she could find a way to leave this ice mountain.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and the brilliance of the ice was dazzling, causing them to feel a little tired. They closed their eyes and soon fell asleep.
Jin Jian suddenly felt a cold chill go down his spine and involuntarily shivered. Lu Yi, who was hugging him, was also instantly awakened. When she touched Jin Jian's arm, she felt cold to the bone.
Jin Jian had developed the Ice Heart Poison this time and felt cold from the blood. When the green light came in contact with his skin, even his bones were chilled. It was clear how cold his blood was.
Although Lu Yi didn't know the reason behind Jin Jian's poison, she knew that he had a blood cold since a young age. She knew that the cold air coming out from his body was coming from the insides of his body, so she couldn't help but shiver when she thought about it.
Lu Yi was extremely anxious, but there was nothing she could do about it. The cold air around her body was emitting from inside out, unlike when she had caught a cold earlier, it was from the cold air invading her body. As long as she was near the heat source, she could naturally warm up. But there was nothing she could do but hug him tighter and tighter, praying that the heat of her body could seep through his flesh and into his blood.
Jin Jian, who was in her embrace, was already trembling from head to toe. He tightly embraced Lu Yi as his hands moved around her body, trying to find a warmer place. When he opened his mouth, cold air was emitted from his mouth.
Lu Yi was so anxious that tears were about to fall from her eyes. She raised her head and yelled, ”Are you there? If you're here, then hurry up and come out. Otherwise, we'll all die here!”
Before he could finish his sentence, there was a whoosh and his vision blurred. A black shadow appeared in front of him.
Lu Yi was beaming with joy as if she had seen a burning furnace. She hurriedly said, ”Quickly, save Jin Jian. Save him!”
The moment she said the two words ”Jin Jian”, the black clothed person in front of her couldn't help but tremble, the tip of her eyebrows trembling.
”What did you say?”
Lu Yi was startled. For a moment, she didn't understand what he was saying. ”I, I asked you to save him.”
The black clothed person pointed at the person in her embrace. ”You said earlier that his name is Jin Jian?”
Lu Yi said, ”Yeah.”
The black clothed man said, ”It's the disciple of Extreme Chuan Ice Region's Duke Gen — Jin Jian?”
Lu Yi said, ”That's Jin Jian.”
The man in black grabbed the reefs where the two were lying on, then snatched Jin Jian from Lu Yi's arms. A pair of eyes fixed on him.
After all, Jin Jian's reputation was not very good at the moment. That person knew that Jin Jian most likely had enmity with Ji Gen, and at that moment, Lu Yi was worried about Jin Jian.
The man in black looked at Jin Jian for a while before mumbling, ”It's, it's really so similar.”
”Like what?” Lu Yi was suspicious, but she also understood that this black-clothed person wasn't the enemy of King Jidong. It was just that he was particularly sensitive to the name 'Jin Jian'.
However, he heard the black-clothed man say, ”He's suffering from the cold disease of the blood. He needs the blood clan's fire wine to be able to cure him.”
Lu Yi anxiously said, ”I'm from the Blood Tribe, but where can I go to find some Flaming Wine!”
The man in black thought for a moment before touching the side of Jin Jian's body. ”I actually didn't bring it with me!”
Lu Yi asked, ”What are you talking about?”
The man in black said, ”Have you seen a golden bullet fall off Jin Jian's body in the past few days?”
Lu Yi thought for a moment, but couldn't recall anything. She was about to shake her head when her eyes suddenly lit up. ”Bullet? Are you talking about a golden ball the size of a soybean?”
The man in black said, ”That's right, I gave him the Yang Jindan to use against the cold.”
Lu Yi's heart trembled. Her entire body shuddered as she said, ”Then, that Jindan was … I ate it!”
The black clothed person's body trembled as he exclaimed, ”What?”
