Chapter 483: [ Outside the God Continent ]
As Allen’s eyes looked at the young girl who was bending her head and seriously washing the wound, gratefulness appeared in his gaze. He had never been this helpless before since he had been reborn.
After washing the wound thoroughly, Si Mulan once again took out another jade bottle and poured some red colored powder from the jade bottle and onto his wounds. When she had finished doing all of this, she realized that his wounds were already beginning to scab.
"As expected of a Sixth Grade Medicine Pill, it was really amazing." She stretches out her hand to touch the scars.
“Did you give me a Medicine Pill…?” Allen asked curiously. So that was the reason why his body suddenly had Qi…
“Un,” Si Mulan nodded her head. And it wasn’t just some simple Medicine Pill—It is a Sixth Grade Medicine Pill! Just how many people possess such things…?
But she didn’t say the latter end; after all, it would look like she was being stingy for it.
“Alright. The wound has been dealt with. What remains is your internal injuries which you will have to rely on yourself to heal.” Si Mulan sighed in relief, took a step back and said with a smile.
“Thank you.” Allen who was quietly lying on the bed suddenly threw Si Mulan a perfect smile. The smile could even be called peerless…
“Ahm… about the medicine pill, can I ask for them…?” Allen suddenly asked in hope but after seeing Si Mulan’s frown, he could only smile bitterly. It must be something extremely precious… “Of course, I wouldn’t take them without giving something back. I will give you something with an equal value with it… I hope you don’t mind…”
“Well, I don’t actually care but… the one I gave you before is a Sixth Grade Medicine Pill and it was extremely precious medicine pill… rare so to speak. Even right now, I only have four in which I had already given you one… as for other Medicine Pill, I have some fourth grade and below if you don’t mind them that is…” Si Mulan hesitated for a bit but she eventually nodded.
With this, Allen’s eyes gleamed and a gratified expression appeared on his face. “Thank you…” After which, Allen closed his eyes, fearing to overdraft his mind, he surrendered to the dizzy feeling washing over him and fainted again.
With Allen was finally unconscious, Si Mulan could now breathe a sigh of relief. Grooowl! Suddenly, from beside her, a low growl rang out and when she looked at the side, she saw Xinghong looking at her with a gratified expression. It was even nodding at her and its eyes seemed to be in smiling in pure relief. What a really human-like beast…
Such Holy Beast, every people would be dying to have them…!
Then, this person…
Is he a Dao Child? A chosen of some Clan or Sect…?
However, if I’m not mistaken, the Passing Cloud Sect’s Dao Child was a girl and the other one in the Capital right now…!
No, wait a minute, is it possible that this was a secret Dao Child of the Passing Cloud Sect…?
Si Mulan wasn’t a novice in the Cultivation world. She understood a lot more about the Dao Children and Chosen of the Sects and Clans. She poses great understanding of what a Dao Child was and what a Chosen was, after all, just like her sister, she was also a Dao Child of the Si Family. If not for her decision to enter the Sect and relinquish her candidacy to become the Si Family successor to her sister, she would still be the Dao Child of the Si Family.
Actually, ‘Dao Child’ and ‘Chosen’ were merely titles, an indication of approval and status. Such approval was evidence of that person’s ability to maintain their strength within the Sect/Clan. It was also proof to the outside world as to the future good prospects of the Sect /Clan itself.
Regarding Dao Children, that was a title given to the most illustrious of any given stage of Cultivation within a Sect/Clan. They would represent the Sect/Clan when it came to dealing with most affairs on the outside.
If a Sect had many Chosen, it would be possible to predict that it would experience incredible growth in the future. So, most of the Sect was eager to cultivate more Dao Children.
However, why is it that she can’ feel no cultivation base from this person…?
In addition, there’s just a little Qi within him…almost unnoticeable… what is this? Is this guy a cultivator or not…?
Thinking about how she had not yet slept because she had been cultivating all this time, she felt a bit sleepy looking at the bed.
Si Mulan couldn’t understand anything. She felt her brain turning into a mush from all this difficult to understand mystery.
Time passed. Soon, it was evening, and then night. Bright stars twinkled into being up above.
They were dim at first but quickly grew clear and bright.
Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings.
Perhaps it was because of the icy night wind, or the fact that she had not yet slept because she had been cultivating, she felt a bit sleepy looking at the bed. In any case, she shrank into a corner against the stone wall, looking quite helpless.
Probably because it was the very first time she would be sharing a single room with a man in her entire lifetime, she was incredibly nervous the entire time. She didn’t dare to meditate, nor close her eyes.
She was too frightened of what she feared might happen if she did.
What if this guy suddenly woke up and recovered and then attacks her…?
Then, wouldn’t she be selling herself cheap…?
However, her nervousness, coupled with the exhaustion from walking through the forest with complete caution and anxiety earlier, caused her to unwittingly fall asleep.
When the first rays of dawn light touched her face, her eyelashes flickered and she slowly opened her eyes. Then she began to tremble.
She quickly rose to her feet, causing the two robes which had been placed on top of her to tumble to the ground.
The robes were thick and were obviously quite warm.
Crackle!
Just in front of her was a small ball of fire that emanated pulses of heat. The heat was filled with the power of Heaven and Earth and relieved some of the exhaustion that had filled her body.
Seeing this, Si Mulan stared in astonishment. She then looked up at Allen who was completely different from yesterday.
Although his face was still a bit pale, somehow color has already started showing on him. He was sitting on the ground cross-legged and with some fruit in hand.
Then, in that very moment, she noticed where she was…eh?! Why is she asleep on the bed…? Didn’t she sleep on the ground last night?
Her complexion paled as she hurriedly checked her clothes--thank god they are still in one piece!
"... ..." Seeing her movement, Allen chuckled in amusement as he surely understands what she was thinking about and put several fruits down in front of her.
Si Mulan’s expression was complex. After having a night of rest, she seemed to have come to terms with her current situation. She still felt apprehensive, though, unsure of how she would view this mysterious youth in front of her.
“I,” Si Mulan was hesitation to say anything but as if knowing what she was thinking, Allen smiled faintly.
“I didn’t do anything; you can trust me on that. When I woke up last night, I found you sleeping on the ground… it would be displeasure and ungentlemanly of me if I still took advantage of you after saving my life..." He responded as he bit on the juicy fruit with one hand.
"... so I carried you and moved you on the bed. Don’t worry, of course, I didn’t sleep beside you, trust me…” he went on softly.
"My sister said that people who say trust me... can never be trusted,"
"Ha ha, then, we will surely be good friends with that sister of yours," Allen teased.
"Well, you don't feel unwell anywhere, right? Then, nothing had happened... don't trust me, trust your instinct..."
Si Mulan’s body trembled slightly. After a long moment passed, she looked up at Allen, almost in a daze. “… What about your wounds?”
“Oh,” Allen shook his head and with a faint warm smile, replied, “Actually, I never expected it but your Medicine Pill was truly outstanding. With that one pill, most of the damage in my internal organs were already recovered to some extent, I even thought that I would still wait for quite a long time, probably even a month for it to recover—But now, thank you, I owe you many things now…”
However, the only problem was that—it only affects his Mana Paths slightly. Thus, he was still unable to recover magic power and was now just a normal human, albeit slightly above mortals due to his overpowered physique.
It was probably damaged severely due to the influx of mana at that time… it was overdraft…
If he was a normal human or even a Dragon at that, he was probably already dead if not crippled. That kind of massive magic power is too strong and would cause any creature’s mana organ to explode!
However, he was fine since he had [ Flawless Restoration ], thus, as long as he had recovered magic power and activate it, he would be able to recover his damage Mana Paths and Organ…
“… …”
But sadly... that is the problem...
“Try these fruits, they’re surprisingly good, ” Allen said, popping one into his mouth. “The flavor is incredible.” He handed another over to her.
She hesitated for a moment, then accepted and bit down onto one of the fruits. Suddenly, her eyes began to glow, and when she squinted, they looked like two crescent moons.
“Good?” asked Allen with a smile.
Si Mulan’s face flushed, and she nodded. After eating the fruits, Si Mulan took a deep breath and then stared at Allen. Her gaze was serious and solemn. “Who are you…?”
“…huh?” Allen’s eyes turned to dots… then, it suddenly dawned upon him. Ah! That’s right, we still haven’t introduced ourselves properly… right?
Realizing this, Allen couldn’t let help but laugh, “Ah, that’s right… I haven’t introduced myself yet, have I?”
“… …”
“My name is Al, Nah, Wushuang, Ye Wushuang… my friends call me Wushuang…It’s my pleasure to meet you…” Allen thought of introducing himself as Allen Bando but then he suddenly realized, he didn’t know how long he was unconscious but he should still be at Blood Desert Oasis, then, what happened to the Aryan Clan should have already spread. In that case, his name along with his real identity should have been known by many people…
That would be bad...
“Wushuang? That’s a good name…graceful yet strong...”
“Ahaha, I get that a lot~” Allen chuckled.
“Anyway, my name is Si Mulan…” Si Mulan said with a slight smile.
"Nice to meet you, Si Mulan... though, I'm not that good with formality so, please let me call you, Mulan..."
"That's quite rude... aren't you? A lady's name shouldn't be called casually,"
"I know... but friends starts with the word casually. Having a distance between us wouldn't make us the best of friends..." Allen grinned.
“I see…so you want to become my friend, is that what you are saying?" Si Mulan smiled mischievously.
"Sort of,"
"Ha ha ha, never thought you would have such glib lips... Anyway, I'll overlook it this time. Please take care of me, Wushuang,"
"Same to you, Mulan,"
Si Mulan took Allen's offered hand and smiled warmly. Then, as if she had recalled something, she asked, "Ah, right... are you a disciple of the Passing Cloud Sect? An inner disciple, perhaps?”
“… …what?” Allen’s brows furrowed. A disciple…? Passing Cloud Sect?
