AST 2068 - Immortal Peach Tree, Rainbow Snake, She Was Bitten in the Rear (2/2)

“Qing Shui, what wish did you make?” Shen Huang asked at the moment when the both of them finished making their wishes.

“This is a secret. It may lose its effect if I say it.”

Actually, he had forgotten that Shen Huang could sense it. Even though what he was thinking wasn’t dangerous to Shen Huang, it was still closely related to her, which was why she was able to sense it. Deep down, she felt very inconsolable, but at the same time, she was also very happy and had a feeling which words couldn’t describe.

‘In the vast sea of humanity, we must have been guided by destiny, for us to be able to meet. She is a beautiful and gifted woman, but maybe because God has started becoming envious of her beauty; it decided to take away her life at such a young age. I like her, no, I love her. I don’t know why, maybe it’s because she is beautiful… Actually, a beautiful look can be used as an excuse to explain why one likes a certain person. But this isn’t me being cheap, I really hope that she can recover from her poison and stay happy for the rest of her life. I know that there are things which she still needs to do, and thus, I hope that I can share half of my life with her.’

Qing Shui was saying all of that in his heart. At this moment, he wasn’t trying to act biased, but instead, he really meant what he said. Even after sharing half of his lifespan with her, he would still have many years left to live. Thus, if he could really do that, he would be more than willing to do so.

He was sincerely making his wish in his heart, but he forgot that Shen Huang was able to feel it.

Shen Huang was able to sense the sincerity which came from deep within the man’s heart. She never expected that the man would be willing to share half of his life with her. The most precious thing to a warrior was his lifespan. No matter how close they had been, even in the case of husbands and wives, it would be impossible for them to be willing to share half of their lifespans with each other. After all, humans were selfish beings.

Shen Huang was feeling very emotional. At this moment, she had neglected everything around her and had her eyes only on Qing Shui. She forgot about the fact that he had wives, children, and all his other weak points.

If Qing Shui had known that Shen Huang would know what he was thinking, how would he have felt? Maybe he would have chosen to make a simpler wish instead, for example, hoping that she could become healthy again.

Furthermore, because Qing Shui had his clan members and wives, it would be normal if he made other wishes, for example, letting his clan prosper and become stronger.

“Let’s go and eat the peaches. These things should taste really delicious. For all you know, you may recover from your poison right after you eat them.” Qing Shui held Shen Huang’s hand as they approached the Immortal Peach Tree.

Shen Huang followed him. The smile on her face looked very casual and relaxed. It was a smile which came from deep within her heart, an honest smile.

But at the moment when they were getting near the tree, Qing Shui’s expression changed. He clenched his teeth and immediately leaped toward Shen Huang. Despite that, Shen Huang who was in his arms still trembled. As that happened, Qing Shui knew that things had just turned for the worse. At that instant, Qing Shui noticed a Rainbow Snake.

The rainbow color across its body looked very bright. This was a deadly snake. Even though it might have the thickness of only a little finger and was about four feet long, it possessed a fast speed. This kind of poisonous snake was fatal to one’s life.

“Which part of you was bitten?” Qing Shui asked anxiously.

Qing Shui quickly poked on a few of her Acupoints to significantly slow down the speed at which her blood was circulating around her body. Suddenly, Qing Shui saw the Rainbow Snake still on top of Shen Huang. Furthermore, the part which it bit on just happened to be on her well-rounded buttocks. Qing Shui was stunned. He quickly extended his hand and secretly unleashed his Dragon-capturing Hands to capture and strangle its weakest spot.

Initially, he intended to strangle it to death. But as he thought more carefully about it, he immediately took out the Demon Refining Furnace and pinned it down.

By now, Shen Huang was already starting to lose her consciousness. What a poisonous snake! Even the current Qing Shui had yet to come across a poison like this. As he looked at Shen Huang’s expression, he knew that he couldn’t delay it any longer and quickly carried her up and put her on a couch which he just took out from the realm.
