The eldest sister just wanted to give up, while the spirit swords vied to recognize her as their mas

Chapter 289 Stay by my side

The woman on the jade bed showed no reaction. The hole in her heart had been filled. Apart from being a little pale, she was no different from a normal person.

Que Yu held her wrist and could faintly feel her weak pulse.

He used the best elixirs in the entire ghost realm and ancient secret techniques, so even though he had already reached the gates of hell, he could still be pulled back.

Therefore, he was quite certain that Yun Fuzhao would not die.

In fact, during her treatment, he had already discovered that she still had a trump card up her sleeve.

Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill.

It's a good thing.

Que Yu slowly lowered her wrist, his voice tinged with a hint of mockery, "If you keep pretending, I'll..."

He lowered his eyes, pretending to kiss her.

The distance between the two gradually closed, but Yun Fuzhao still didn't make a move.

He had originally intended to scare her, but as he got closer, his gaze fell on her full lips, and his eyes darkened slightly.

Just as he was about to get close, a tremendous force gripped his neck; Yun Fuzhao used all his strength.

Leaning forward, she tackled him to the ground.

Que Yu's back slammed to the ground with a thud. His brows furrowed slightly, but the corners of his lips were upturned.

Yun Fuzhao gripped his neck tightly, her eyes red-rimmed, her gaze filled with surging anger.

Despite being choked like that, Que Yu showed no intention of resisting. He reached out and grabbed Yun Fuzhao's wrist, smiling slightly, "Don't move, or your wounds will reopen."

In fact, her robes were already stained with blood.

"Que Yu—"

Her voice was almost squeezed out through clenched teeth.

"Ok?"

"Who's joking around with you like that!"

Yun Fuzhao was furious. Although she didn't trust Que Yu to begin with, she never expected that the other party would betray her even after she had sworn an oath to the death.

Now that her dantian is destroyed, no matter how hard she tries, she can't hurt this bastard at all.

Yun Fuzhao gritted her teeth, released her grip on his neck, and sat back down.

[Yun Family Team 5, Ziqian: It's alright. The Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill protected your heart meridian and your dantian at the same time.]

After Yun Fuzhao woke up, the powerful figures flooded the screen with messages, making Yun Fuzhao dizzy. At that time, she was in excruciating pain and could not move at all.

The powerful beings shared her perspective, but since Yun Fuzhao was not awake, they could not see what was happening around them.

Perhaps fearing that Yun Fuzhao would collapse, they kept saying that it didn't matter that his dantian was destroyed, and that they would restore it in no time.

After making such a big movement, Yun Fuzhao belatedly realized that she was in terrible pain, especially in her chest. She wondered if it was a side effect, but she felt as if air was leaking from her chest.

“You’re badly injured,” Que Yu said calmly as he got up from the ground. Despite being choked by Yun Fuzhao, he showed no anger whatsoever. On the contrary, his cheeks were slightly flushed and his eyes were full of interest.

Yun Fuzhao: "..."

I'm afraid he'd enjoy it even if I slapped him.

With Yun Fuzhao's strength not yet recovered and Jiaoyu's whereabouts unknown, her best option is to bide her time and conceal her abilities.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Yun Fuzhao stared at him, wondering what he was up to.

They clearly conspired with the ferocious beast to plot against her. After she was killed by Shang Ji, they should have left immediately. Why did they bring her back instead...?

"I don't want to do anything."

Que Yu moved closer to her, "I just want you to stay here, to stay by my side."

"...Don't even think about it."

Yun Fuzhao clenched his fist. "You betrayed me. We are now mortal enemies. I will never trust you again, and I will kill you at the first opportunity."

His long eyelashes lowered slightly, concealing all the emotions in his eyes. After a long while, Que Yu smiled and said, "I'd be more than happy to."

That pervert.

“But before that,” Que Yu brought over the food that was set aside, “eat something first. Your body is no different from that of an ordinary person right now.”

Yun Fuzhao remained motionless.

"Don't worry, I didn't poison you." Que Yu's words were like a dagger to the heart. "If I really wanted to kill you, I could do it with the flick of a finger."

Yun Fuzhao glanced at the food in the food box, and a long-lost feeling of hunger returned.

Since starting his cultivation journey, Yun Fuzhao has never had this feeling. His love for food is simply due to his cravings.

She glanced at her palm and tried to circulate her spiritual energy. The spiritual energy flowed through her dantian, like a water balloon with a hole punched in it, leaking water out in all directions.

She couldn't even complete one full cycle of the Small Heavenly Circuit.

Noticing her emotions, Que Yu said, "Your dantian is not completely damaged. I will invite the best medical cultivators in the ghost realm to repair your dantian."

Yun Fuzhao didn't respond, but silently picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.

She's not stupid; she wouldn't go so far as to go on a hunger strike.

Que Yu's lips tightened, and he said in a low voice, "Yun Fuzhao, whether you believe it or not, I have never..."

A lump formed in his throat, and a strange, uncontrollable emotion surged into his heart. Que Yu's feelings were complicated, and he couldn't bring himself to say the rest of the words.

He gave Yun Fuzhao a deep look, "Just stay here and relax for the time being."

After saying that, he started walking away.

Upon leaving the secret chamber, Que Yu summoned his protector and said to him, "Summon Ji Meng to see me."

Ji Meng, the most famous medical cultivator in the ghost realm.

The Left Protector hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, Ji Meng has been summoned away by Chaos."

Que Yu's face turned cold. "When did this happen?"

"Not long ago, it was said that Taotie was injured when it fought against the human race. Chaos then took Ji Meng away."

"My people, he just takes them away like that?"

Que Yu's expression completely faded, and his fingers tightened one by one.

The Left Protector carefully observed his expression. In fact, he knew without asking what the Emperor wanted to see Ji Meng for.

It was to save Yun Fuzhao, who was trapped in the secret room.

The scene flashed through his mind: after they returned from the miracle, the king suddenly had someone in his arms.

Covered in blood, he had stained most of the emperor's robes red.

The emperor, who has always disliked clothes with stains, was able to tolerate bloodstains and dirt without showing the slightest disgust.

What's even more surprising is the complex and unpredictable expression on his face as he looked at Yun Fuzhao.

It was like feeling heartache, and also like blaming oneself...

The fact that the emperor took such a great risk to bring Yun Fuzhao back already shows her importance in his heart.

He even stayed by her side in the secret room for three days without changing his clothes, feeding her all the best elixirs and resources available in the ghost realm.

"Your Majesty, you mean..."

Que Yu thought for a moment, then expressionlessly drew a sword from the Ghost Clan beside him and struck his own arm.

Blood instantly soaked through his sleeve.

The Left Protector was shocked. "Your Majesty!"

“Tell Chaos that I’m injured,” he laughed, “to the point of dying, and tell him to send my men back.”

"Your Majesty, you don't need to..."

"Do as I say."

"……Yes!"
