Chapter 462: Chapter 371: The Initial Battle Between Chuyun and Yurou_1

When Li Xuan’s consciousness slowly awakened, he found himself lying on something soft and elastic.

Did the people from Dali Temple change his pillow? It was so comfortable, and it smelled nice, fragrant, like the natural scent of a girl’s body.

Li Xuan instinctively reached out and grabbed the pillow. Well, it was soft, very bouncy.

It wasn’t until he kneaded it a bit that he realized something was off. When he opened his eyes, he saw Xue Yunrou blushing and looking at him, while he was half lying on Xue Yunrou’s lap.

Li Xuan couldn’t help but pinch again, thinking that he hadn’t seen Yunrou for just over a month, but her ’generosity’ had increased a lot.

"Have you had enough?"

Xue Yunrou, her face flushed red, slapped Li Xuan’s hand away: "There’s someone here!"

Only then did Li Xuan realise that Sun Chuyun was also in the room. He hurriedly sat up with an embarrassed expression: "Miss Sun, you’re still here?"

As soon as Sun Chuyun heard this, she couldn’t help feel a pang in her heart. She had been looking after Li Xuan all night until Xue Yunrou arrived.

All she got in return was Li Xuan’s polite ’Miss Sun’.

Seeing her like this, Li Xuan felt a twinge of guilt. But the problem was that Xue Yunrou was clutching his waist at this moment. If he wasn’t careful now, he might capsize the boat.

"Xuan, do you feel better?" Sun Chuyun looked at Li Xuan worriedly: "You healed so quickly from so many injuries, I’m a bit worried."

She had seen the horrific state Li Xuan was in before he passed out, like he had been tortured. But then his recovery rate was even faster than those heavenly tier cultivators who had the ability of regeneration.

She was worried this might cause some trouble, because Li Xuan’s situation at that time was like using some secret technique that stimulated his life force.

Theoretically, this method should consume a lot of life span and life origin, or something else as a price.

"I’m fine!"

Li Xuan moved his limbs, feeling energetic and with no hidden injuries. He then looked behind himself and saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl with a beautiful face, cool demeanor, a green gemstone embedded between her eyebrows, and sitting on a green flying sword, looking at him expressionlessly.

She was hovering in midair, her soul body solid, as if she were a real person. But Li Xuan’s gaze could still see through her body to the wall behind.

However, just like before with Hongshang, the two girls in the cell had no idea about the existence of this little girl with a green sword.

Looking at this girl, Li Xuan broke into a cold sweat. At the same time, he felt a numbness and palpitation in his chest.

This feeling was the same as when Hongshang was attached to his body. But what Li Xuan can now confirm is that this little girl with the green sword is much stronger than Yu Hongchang was. He didn’t know about her origin.

Li Xuan couldn’t help but think of Sun Chuyun’s description of his body as a ’ship’ with multiple cabins. He wanted to shout at her, "Hey, have you bought a ticket for coming on board?"

Also, this girl’s soul strength far exceeded Hongshang. She had already entered the heavenly realm, right? A Yang spirit?

She herself could walk under the sun without any worries and roam in the violent wind, just like the legendary ghost immortals. But why did she come into his body?

Xue Yunrou didn’t notice Li Xuan’s abnormality. She was staring at Sun Chuyun and scoffed, "Miss Sun, do you dare to ask about Xuan’s health? Wasn’t it your dad, Earl Huichang, who caused this?"

Sun Chuyun’s face turned pale, and she turned her head and humphed: "I will naturally compensate for what my father did!"

"You?" Xue Yunrou sneered dismissively, "He’s quite impressive now, and there are numerous women who care for him. It’s not your turn to compensate. Now he’s awake and much better. You should be reassured, right? There’s nothing to do with you here anymore. You can leave!"

Sun Chuyun was choked with anger, her chest heaving, she glared at Xue Yunrou: "Why should I leave? I came in with him, so I should accompany him out."

"But are you genuinely here for him? Or merely spying perhaps?" Xue Yunrou’s eyes were cold, but her face remained calm, "Perhaps you have been sent by your father, keeping an eye on Xuan."

Sun Chuyun was exasperated beyond belief, "You... are impossible to reason with! What if I refuse to leave, what then?"

At that, an idea struck her, and she folded her arms protectively, "I am a suspect being held by Dali Temple. Where else would you have me go, Miss Xue?"

Her cell, Room 4 of Tian, had been corroded by the withdrawing of the earth element through Li Xuan’s extraordinary poetry, as well as the piercing Hao Qi, leaving the walls riddled with holes and halfway collapsed. Not a single room on the entire floor was intact.

Besides Li Xuan’s room, there was truly nowhere else for her, a prisoner, to go.

At these words, Xue Yunrou only smiled faintly, shooting Li Xuan a significantly meaningful glance.

"Xuan, I’ve come all this way to save you, must I now watch you flirt with another woman?"

Li Xuan felt his head starting to pound, caught between a rock and a hard place.

Naturally, he didn’t want to see Xue Yunrou heartbroken but if he were to send Sun Chuyun away so ruthlessly, it seemed too cruel.

The girl’s eyes had been red all this while, holding back her tears. Li Xuan felt that if he were to be too harsh, Sun Chuyun might just break down and cry.

This damned Shuraba, how was he supposed to survive this?

He absolutely had to make a decision. In his heart, Li Xuan let out a secret sigh, about to speak, but then he became alert to the prison door.

A moment later, a low-ranking official in teal robes arrived, followed by a group of jailers, stopping outside the cell door to open it with a beaming smile, "Earl Jingan, we have directives from higher-up. As of today, your confinement is to be lifted, you can go home now."

"Go home?" Li Xuan looked closely at the man, recognizing him as the Yucheng of Dali Temple. He let out a dry chuckle, "Oh, what about my case, have you figured it out yet?"

The Yucheng’s composure hitched, and he carefully replied, "As for the progress of the Inspectorate arson case, I am only a lower official, I don’t know the details. However, since the higher-ups think you can be released, you mustn’t have anything to do with it, your name will soon be cleared."

"And who might you be to assert this? Are you just assuming things have nothing to do with me?"

Li Xuan’s eyes flashed dangerously, his icy stare freezing the Yucheng in his tracks, turning him pale as a ghost.

Fortunately, after a moment, Li Xuan laughed gently, "Well, I won’t hold it against you. Tell the one behind you, I quite enjoy being locked up in this Dali prison. It greatly inspires my poetry, I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon. Plus—"

His piercing gaze reminded one of swords, sharp as a knife, "I once told someone, getting me in here was easy, but it won’t be as easy getting me out."

The Yucheng dared not make eye contact with Li Xuan, he bowed his body and made a swift exit with his jailers.

Having sent him off, Li Xuan found himself once again under Xue Yunrou’s scrutiny, while Sun Chuyun had a bad feeling about this. She looked at Li Xuan with pleading eyes.

Li Xuan felt goosebumps forming on his head, he quickly pretended to feel faint, "Oh my, I’m feeling so dizzy!"

Then, he stumbled and collapsed onto the bed, playing unconscious.

Xue Yunrou’s eyes widened at the scene, she couldn’t hold back a laugh. She immediately grabbed Li Xuan’s side and gave it a fierce 720-degree twist!

Li Xuan remained ’unconscious’, eyes closed, feeling relieved that his Tiebushan and Gold Bell Cover practices had paid off, otherwise, he would have been exposed by now.

Thus, it seemed that these two Henglian skills indeed needed urgent enhancement, lest he couldn’t handle his wives.

If he could reach the level of Henglian Golden Body in the future, he could manage even when things started to go awry.
