The jade body lay before him, but the wondrous form that could drive countless n mad failed to arouse even the slightest improper thought in Luo Xiu's heart. He was a qualified Divine Doctor, one who could withstand any test. In fact, he had long since grown accustod to such situations.
Xi Er, currently unconscious due to the poison's flare-up, made things much easier for Luo Xiu.
The insertion of needles was as fluid as flowing water or drifting clouds, each one precisely striking an acupoint. In just a mont, Luo Xiu used the "Toxin-Removing Needle" to extract the Blood Rust Poison from Xi Er's body.
…
…
「In the inn's room.」
Having recovered, Xi Er sat at the head of the bed, wrapped in a quilt. Her eyes were misty with tears, and she occasionally stole glances at Luo Xiu, her gaze filled with extre resentnt.
What happened today was a nightmare for her. No, two nightmares.
First, her skirt was pulled off, and she was spanked like a child.
Then, completely unclothed, she was pierced by a stranger.
For a mont, she felt the whole world was shrouded in darkness.
This was undoubtedly the greatest humiliation of my life!
She glared fiercely at Luo Xiu, secretly vowing in her heart. You profligate! I, Luo Xier, swear that one day, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces! For today's humiliation, I will exact repaynt a hundredfold!
Luo Xiu, unconcerned by her murderous gaze, looked at her with a half-smile. "I won't hold what you did in the Sword Forest against you. But I just saved your life. Don't you think you should repay ? Putting that aside, you should at least pay the dical fee, right?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Xier's eyes widened, and she stared at Luo Xiu in disbelief as if he had just told the funniest joke in the world.
Does this man have no sha? Is he even speaking human language?!
"Are you even human? After what you did to my body... you actually want to repay you? And even pay you a dical fee! I haven't even begun to settle the score with you!"
Luo Xiu's gaze hardened slightly. "What's with your tone? Have you no manners? Is your bottom itching again? What did you call just now? Say it again for ."
Luo Xier gritted her teeth, her delicate body trembling with anger. She suddenly looked away, unwillingly calling out, "Brother Haoran."
Luo Xiu's unfathomable strength had already quelled any thought of resistance in her. She wouldn't even be afraid if Luo Xiu wanted to kill her. What she truly feared was being put over his lap and spanked again.
That's too shaful!
Luo Xiu spoke seriously, "I need you to do sothing for ."
"TCH!" Luo Xier rolled her eyes and asked, "Do you think I can say 'no' right now?"
Luo Xiu smiled and got straight to the point. "I need you to win the Sword Discourse Conference to prevent the Holy Maiden from marrying soone else. Because you're a woman, if you're the champion, the Holy Maiden naturally can't marry another woman, so the matter will have to be dropped. If I were to beco the champion, it would inevitably lead to more trouble. That's why I wanted to cooperate with you back in the Sword Forest."
Hearing this, Luo Xier's beautiful eyes widened in shock. Winning the Sword Discourse Conference to prevent the Holy Maiden from marrying… this had been her goal from the very beginning!
I never imagined that this guy would have the sa objective!
"Why do you want to do this?"
Luo Xiu couldn't be bothered to explain. "I will help you win. I'll eliminate the strong opponents for you."
At those words, Luo Xier snorted disdainfully. "You make it sound so easy. Do you have any idea who is participating in this Sword Discourse Conference?" Her tone grew heavy. "The prodigies of the Hundred Clans! Virtually all the top young geniuses of the Three Thousand Worlds have co, and they're all aiming for the Plateau Saintess! I admit your strength is greater than mine, but at most, you're only in the Dao Jade Realm. What makes you think you can help win?"
Luo Xiu smiled slightly. "How do you know I'm only at the Dao Jade Realm? What if I were in the Emperor Realm?"
"PFFT!" Luo Xier said with a face full of disdain, "I've t more than enough Emperor Realm Experts. I can tell instantly whether you are one or not."
Luo Xiu said, "In any case, you don't need to worry about these things. By the way, what's your purpose for participating in the Sword Discourse Conference as a girl?"
"To win, of course!" Luo Xier answered without hesitation.
Luo Xiu continued, "Then here's the question—with your ager skills, how do you plan on winning? By crying? Or by acting pitiful?"
"Hmph, that's none of your business… I have my own trump card, it has nothing to do with you."
Luo Xiu said, "Since our goals are aligned, let's cooperate. With my help, winning will be a piece of cake. You won't even need to use whatever trump card you have."
Luo Xier sighed softly. "However, Zhu Yu has already stepped into the Emperor Realm and is the youngest Profound Emperor in history. And never mind Zhu Yu, even among the prodigies from the various clans, the weakest are at the third stage of the Dao Jade Realm. I'd really like to see how you plan to help eliminate them!"
Luo Xiu smiled indifferently, gazing at her. "Be it the prodigies of the Hundred Clans or the Emperor Realm's Zhu Yu… in my eyes, they aren't even worthy of being my footstools. In any case, you don't need to worry about winning. Just watch how I slaughter my way through those so-called geniuses at the Sword Discourse Conference."
Luo Xier stared at Luo Xiu, utterly dumbfounded. This inherent pride and the domineering air of looking down on everyone… it involuntarily reminded her of the Azure Emperor, the man she and her Saintess Sister had spent their entire lives chasing.
"TCH!" Luo Xier suddenly turned her head to the side. "Anyone can brag."
Luo Xiu couldn't be bothered to waste any more words on her. He suddenly pointed a finger at her brow, directly placing a Divine Consciousness Forbidden on her.
Luo Xier clutched her head with both hands, her eyes filled with rage. "What are you doing?!"
Luo Xiu said coolly, "After the Sword Discourse Conference is over, I will lift the restriction. During this ti, if you dare to try any clever tricks, I can obliterate your soul in an instant."
Hearing this, Luo Xier's face turned pale, and she dared not make another sound. The feeling of her life being completely in soone else's hands was exceedingly uncomfortable.
Luo Xiu added, "Also, as far as I know, participants are allowed to bring their spirit pets into battle in this tournant."
Luo Xier snorted softly. "That's correct."
Luo Xiu said, "Just to be safe, I'll have Lao Ba assist you."
"Who's Lao Ba?"
No sooner had her words fallen than a spatial gateway materialized out of The Void. A palm-sized black Bage Bird flew out from it and landed on Luo Xiu's shoulder.
…
After giving Lao Ba a few instructions, Luo Xiu leaped out of the window and vanished from sight.
Inside the room, Lao Ba fluttered his wings and flew onto Luo Xier's shoulder. He cocked his bird head and spoke in a gravelly, duck-like voice, "Ahem… Miss, your na is Chair, right?"
Luo Xier's delicate body trembled with anger as she snapped, "What 'Chair'?! My na is Xi Er!"
Lao Ba chuckled awkwardly. "Right, right, Xi Er, Xi Er. Look at these old ears of mine. They've gone a bit dull from all the noise during mahjong gas. Just now, my Crown Prince told that we need to cooperate to help you win."
"Tch, what use can a Bage Bird be to ?"
"Now don't be like that, Miss Chair. Let tell you, Lao Ba here is quite capable!"
"It's Xi Er!"
"Oh right, right, Xi Er! Say, Xi Er, you're really beautiful. You must have so best friends, right?"
Luo Xier shot Lao Ba a glare. "I have plenty. Why?"
Lao Ba puffed out his chest and announced proudly, "Go call all of your besties here. I, Lao Ba, am going to confess my love to them!"
"Go to hell!"
Luo Xier was about to go mad. This annoying, foul-mouthed bird was simply sothing else!
"You were sent by Bai Haoran just to tornt , weren't you?!"
"…"
