The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 373 - 220 Healing2

He attributed all this to the effects of the anesthesia, then muttered sothing and fell asleep.

If you ask him why he was so trusting to place his critical weaknesses in her hands? Nonsense, if she wanted to kill him, she wouldn’t have let him live until now.

He had a long, dreamless sleep and upon waking up, he found himself re-bandaged.

As soon as Miluo opened his eyes, Ning Xiaoxian noticed and swiftly stuffed a dicine pill into his mouth, along with the Red Jade Old Ginseng he had beco accustod to chewing. Surprisingly, the dicine pill had the flavor of osmanthus sugar, which he was about to critique, but once swallowed, its efficacy was so potent that he felt his internal organs being cleansed.

Afterwards, he felt a cool sensation on his body as Ning Xiaoxian used a Cleaning Technique to remove all the bloodstains from him. This woman knew he liked cleanliness and didn’t want to disturb his sleep earlier by using the technique in case it woke him up.

Hmm, she’s quite attentive.

"A demon’s life force is incredibly tenacious. Your internal injuries have already healed by thirty percent; I’ve also removed the blood clots for you. The recovery speed from now on will be much faster." Although her fingers were clean and the tray holding the bottles and jars was gone, the faint scent of blood lingered in the air, reminding him that the girl in front of him had perford open-chest surgery on him.

She sat at the table, resting her chin on her hands, pondering, "In no more than seven days, your body will fully recover. And in half a month, your demonic power will also be restored." These were not her conclusions, but Changtian’s.

She had undertaken her first surgical experint on the pitiful Miluo. Fortunately, her breathing was steady, her hand movents were stable and skilled with the blade, and Tusk’s sharpness was even better than a typical surgical scalpel. Of course, the most important thing was having Changtian’s guidance; he seed very familiar with the body structure of a fox, as if he had dissected hundreds in the past. Actually, she made a few incorrect cuts, but since Miluo was of pure giant demon lineage with an astonishingly resilient life force, he was naturally able to recover quickly, making him a perfect experintal subject.

Unfortunately, Miluo was unaware of all this; he only knew that this girl had saved his life, so he gazed at her with eyes red as rubies. Under the lamplight, her pointed chin and the shadows on her smooth cheeks added a hint of enchantnt to her beauty. He had never noticed before how naturally curled her eyelashes were...

In the God Demon Prison, Changtian looked at him with a darkening expression and cracked his knuckles loudly. That look in Miluo’s eyes was all too familiar to him, he imdiately regretted not advising Ning Xiaoxian to cut at a bit more of an angle earlier, perhaps severing the coquettish fox’s heart ridian!

However, Miluo just blankly stared at her for a mont before closing his eyes. After a while, he barely lifted his head, his gaze now completely calm.

"Ning Xiaoxian. What do you want?" His voice resounded by her ear.

To be fair, both Changtian and Miluo had very pleasant voices. Changtian’s voice was like jade stones clinking, deep and magnetic; Miluo’s, on the other hand, was like a clear spring tinkling over stones, gentle and lodious. She could recognize Miluo’s voice imdiately.

This guy, no longer wanting to hide himself, huh? She looked astonished at the White Fox, who was quietly observing her.

"Don’t act so surprised, you’ve known my identity all along, haven’t you?" White Fox did not speak but used the Sound Transmission Skill, sending it directly to her ears. This skill hardly consud any energy, and he could still manage to speak a few sentences.

Ning Xiaoxian lowered her hands and sat up straighter, the charm of the lamplight ’s beauty instantly vanished. Seated here once again was the woman Miluo had seen before, calculating for her own survival.

He sighed inaudibly.

In truth, he knew she was too astute not to guess that the White Fox was his True Body. He just wanted to enjoy this peaceful and comfortable sensation a bit longer, that mirage-like... tranquility and harmony that was so rare in his life of deceitful changes and warmth hard to co by.

But even the most beautiful dreams must eventually end.

"Mhm, I noticed from the very beginning." She said softly, "From the first glance at your White Fox form."

He had underestimated her shrewdness.

"Having recognized , why not kill ?" He posed a great threat to her, if their positions were reversed, he would have been ruthless.

She flashed a smile: "Why bother? There’s no deep-seated hatred between us. Besides, seeing you injured so badly, any resentnt I might have had has already dissipated." Actually, the main reason was that he looked handso in human form, and even cuter as a fox, she truly couldn’t bring herself to do it. But that’s a reason she would never admit. Miluo the saucy fox might not mind, but the Great Demon in the God Demon Prison would definitely kill her. He definitely would!

This is not a reason. Miluo glared at her for a long ti before speaking: "State your terms. I don’t like being indebted to anyone." Her intervention must have an ulterior motive.

"Could I not just be acting out of a sense of justice...?" Under the indifferent gaze of White Fox, even she found these words to sound weak, so she cleared her throat, "Ahem, fine. Then my condition is that you must stop pursuing , and so must your subordinates."

He knew this was the condition, yet he still felt a faint sense of disappointnt. He was the Second Young Master of Fengtian Prefecture; shouldn’t she, with her cunning, seek more advantages for herself? Miluo pondered for a while before replying: "Even if I stop pursuing you, others might not."

"Hmph, right now, you’re the only one who can link with the spirit tea seeds." Ning Xiaoxian spoke leisurely, "When the Banshee Da Zi ca to find last ti, I knew she was a spy you had planted by your side. You’re so imperious and cunning; how could you not realize she’s a spy and still tolerate her being around you? Therefore, she must be soone sent by those above you." (To be continued.
