In these two days, what surprised Xiao Tian the most and touched him deeply was the change that happened in Sun Miaohan.
Though her usual behavior still seed possessed by drama, performing a little act now and then, her care for Xiao Tian was truly ticulous!
She not only hunted and brewed bone broth herself to provide nutrition for Xiao Tian but also spent almost every possible mont with him, sharing all sorts of strange tales.
To a certain extent, Sun Miaohan seed like the kind of person who had never taken care of anyone at first glance, with every action appearing clumsy and awkward.
And even though she did good deeds, the words she spoke made it difficult for others to feel grateful, making her the type to exert effort without being appreciated.
Yet, Xiao Tian saw all this, feeling warmth and keeping Sun Miaohan’s actions close to his heart.
Especially the bizarre tales she shared, which not only alleviated his loneliness but also gave him inspiration, making them quite entertaining to listen to.
Based on this, the first thing Xiao Tian did after recovering was... go to the restroom.
During these two days, thankfully, Xiao Tian managed to control his body’s tabolism with True Qi; otherwise, he really would have been quite embarrassed.
When Xiao Tian returned to the camp feeling relaxed and refreshed, he imdiately saw Sun Miaohan standing elegantly not far away.
Two days had passed, and Sun Miaohan’s terrifying recovery ability was apparent. The knife wound on her neck had completely healed, though if examined closely, faint traces were still visible, but overall she had returned to her original breathtaking beauty.
This made Xiao Tian, who originally intended to help her recover, secretly relieved to save his energy but also filled with unspoken admiration...
For Xiao Tian, this sense of wonder stemd from the realization that the differences between people are truly incomparable.
From several days of getting to know each other, with Xiao Tian’s intelligent mind and keen perception power, it was not difficult to see that Sun Miaohan, whether in speech or knowledge, seed far superior, a whole level above the elite disciples he had t!
Though Xiao Tian had tried probing subtly, Sun Miaohan never responded directly, which was perplexing yet understandable.
After all, everyone has their secrets, perhaps limited by sect rules, or perhaps for other reasons.
Ultimately, after that probing attempt, Xiao Tian and Sun Miaohan tacitly agreed not to ntion it again, both feeling much at ease.
...
Seeing Xiao Tian return, an assuaged light flickered in Sun Miaohan’s eyes before reverting to her usual deanor.
"Can you show now, the wall paintings you ntioned?" With that, Sun Miaohan suddenly threw the Demon-Suppressing Bell into the air, the small bell instantly magnifying hundreds and thousands of tis, intimidating upon a glance.
On the other side, Xiao Tian felt a force pulling him toward the range covered by the Demon-Suppressing Bell, but he did not resist, following the force forward.
After landing steadily, the Demon-Suppressing Bell enveloped both Sun Miaohan and Xiao Tian, its interior walls still covered with a layer of bright yellow glow, no matter how hard one looked, it seed naturally so.
Sun Miaohan glanced sideways at Xiao Tian, discreetly asking, "Have you fully recovered from your injuries?"
"Yes!" Xiao Tian briefly agreed, about to recount his past experiences in detail.
However, as he was about to step forward and raise his arm, a gentle yet unquestionable force wrapped around his wrist, tightly restraining him while a probing force began to flow in.
Xiao Tian raised an eyebrow, knowing Sun Miaohan was checking his condition, paused montarily before relaxing his guard completely, openly sharing his internal state without reservation.
Monts later, Sun Miaohan opened her beautiful eyes, her gaze turning enigmatic, filled with a blend of emotions, extrely complex-looking.
After a long pause, Sun Miaohan finally spoke, "I didn’t imagine that you were once a master!"
Xiao Tian retorted, dissatisfied, "Why ’once,’ isn’t it true now?!"
"You sure know how to climb up the pole!"
Sun Miaohan scoffed, continuing, "In any case, it’s clear that your current abilities are inferior to mine. If you were to kneel and beg for marriage... oh no, plea for rcy now, I might consider sparing you from exploitation."
After speaking, seemingly realizing her slip of the tongue earlier, a blush spread across Sun Miaohan’s cheeks, appearing embarrassed, more of a shy reaction.
Xiao Tian shook his head, ignoring Sun Miaohan’s banter.
During this period, after nurous encounters with the other, Xiao Tian had worked out a complete set of tactics for dealing with Sun Miaohan — cold treatnt.
As long as he didn’t engage, ninety-nine percent of Sun Miaohan’s verbal attacks could be completely immune.
Of course, if truly unfortunate to encounter that one percent, he could only chalk up to bad luck and deal with it as it ca!
And Sun Miaohan’s current situation clearly belonged to that majority ninety-nine percent, and after Xiao Tian didn’t engage in it, she soon backed down, no longer speaking much at this mont.
Xiao Tian shook his head, saying, "The exact location can’t be determined now, but I can teach you the hand gesture." With that, Xiao Tian spread his hands in front, then sharply closed them together, gritting his teeth, making a gesture that appeared almost self-destructive.
Seeing Xiao Tian’s fingers twisted into unbelievable angles, Sun Miaohan’s eyelids twitched, surprised but couldn’t help asking, "Doesn’t seem as sinister as you said, where’s that laser-like beam you ntioned?"
Being stared at by Sun Miaohan, like a spectator watching a monkey show, Xiao Tian’s already twisted expression beca even more grim, and if not for suppressing the impulse to speak at this mont, he would’ve harshly scolded the person before him.
After a while, seeing Sun Miaohan still not attempting to follow along, Xiao Tian finally dropped the gesture, while channeling energy to restore circulation in his finger joints, unceremoniously grabbing Sun Miaohan’s hands.
Suddenly gripped by both hands, Sun Miaohan instinctively shrank back, a peculiar feeling welled up inside, her heart racing as if having just endured a battle, her ears growing increasingly hot.
Yet, before she could react further, she abruptly felt a strong pain radiating from fingers, her expression changed instantly, followed by an uncontrollable scream.
"Ah!"
After her scream, Sun Miaohan was about to lash out but was stunned by the sight before her. She couldn’t separate her fingers, and light as thick as a finger burst from between her middle finger.
Still, the seemingly unimpressive beam made Sun Miaohan feel a breathtaking power within, pulsating quickly.
It seed that the beam was the sharpest thing in the world, able to pierce through any defense!
