Chapter 355: Chapter 250: Treating Injuries_2

And the next moment,

Xu Yuan immediately felt that the Wrapped Chest Princess before him had been struck and her Origin Qi was leaking, causing the Origin Qi within the entire room to surge violently because of her.

Atop that blood-drenched wound lay a strange fluctuation, not only hindering Li Qingyan’s body from healing itself but also attempting to deepen the wound to both sides and inward.

Severe injury plus bleeding...

If Li Qingyan’s cultivation weren’t already high, a mere minor wound could worsen to a life-threatening condition.

Li Qingyan’s expression, however, was quite calm, as if that bone-deep slash wasn’t on her body, nonchalantly taking out a wide red martial outfit from the Sumeru Ring:

"It’s not a big deal, I can suppress it with my cultivation for now."

As she spoke, she began dressing herself with a heroic posture.

The red dress could indeed cover the fresh blood seeping from her waist and belly, but at this moment, Xu Yuan suddenly grabbed the hem of her garment.

Li Qingyan looked back, their gazes locking for a moment, her phoenix eyes shining with a hint of amusement:

"What? Haven’t you had your fill of looking at my body, Prince Consort?"

"I could never tire of looking at the Princess’s body in a lifetime."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Li Qingyan directly slipped the red robe off again, her graceful and curvaceous figure standing tall before him, she leaned slightly forward, raising her hand to gently stroke Xu Yuan’s cheek, her phoenix eyes narrowed into sparkling slits:

"Prince Consort, what you just said... makes my heart flutter."

"It is my honor to make the Princess’s heart flutter."

Xu Yuan grinned, rolling his eyes inwardly.

Women’s mouths can deceive like ghosts.

If he fell for this mischievous woman’s sweet nothings, he’d be the real ghost.

Pausing for a moment, Xu Yuan glanced at her waist and belly, at the gruesome wound that was not yet bandaged:

"Princess, aren’t you going to treat that wound?"

Li Qingyan’s phoenix eyes flickered instantly, standing upright:

"The wound won’t get any better whether it is treated or not, I can only use Origin Qi to stop the bleeding temporarily and prevent it from getting worse."

Xu Yuan took out a dark-colored small bottle from the Sumeru Ring, placed it in the palm of his hand and passed it to Li Qingyan:

"This was a gift from Lou Ji before."

That old lady Lou Ji had a knack for poisons, but poisoners and healers are two sides of the same coin, and she usually gave him the best things from her collection.

Li Qingyan’s phoenix eyes held a slightly odd expression:

"Chief Lou’s Secret Medicine?"

Xu Yuan smiled slightly, explaining:

"She told me it’s a love potion to trick young girls with, but I had it checked out and it actually is a healing medicine, said to cure all external injuries."

Li Qingyan gave Xu Yuan a deep look, full of implication:

"Chief Lou really does spoil you, Prince Consort."

While speaking, she climbed onto the bed, lying down neatly beside him.

Her enticing pear-shaped figure seemed ripe for picking.

Seeing this arrangement, Xu Yuan understood the unspoken message, not speaking any further, he opened the cap of the little dark bottle, and immediately a strange fragrance spread throughout the chamber.

The medicine inside the bottle was a green, viscous liquid.

Xu Yuan expertly poured the ointment on his palm, spreading it evenly on his finger.

With preparations complete and looking down at the stunning beauty lying on the bed, he subconsciously reminded her:

"It might hurt a little, bear with it, don’t make a sound."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingyan’s brilliant phoenix eyes flashed with amusement:

"Don’t worry, I am not some coddled young lady of a noble household..."

Before she could finish,

Li Qingyan suddenly bit her lip to stop herself from making a sound, her delicate brows furrowing tightly together.

And Xu Yuan had only just touched the wound with the medicated hand.

"....."

Seeing this, Xu Yuan subconsciously thought that this woman was trying to play fragile to create a contrast in front of him.

No helping it, the Wrapped Chest Princess’s image as a strong and bad woman loved by the CPU had already taken deep root in people’s hearts; whatever she did, he had to second guess.

In the silence, her voice carrying the pain came softly:

"Continue....."

Li Qingyan bit her lip corner, perspiration faintly appearing on her pale forehead, she tried to maintain a steady tone: "This... this medicine is effective."

Xu Yuan fell silent for a moment, then decided to check with his Will-spirit.

As his Will-spirit reached out, he immediately realized that Li Qingyan apparently wasn’t feigning.

Because as soon as the medicine from Lou Ji touched the wound, it immediately reacted with the weird fluctuation attached to the wound.

It was an intense reaction, like saltpeter in water, like a thousand ants gnawing at the heart.

"Good."

Xu Yuan nodded: "Bear with it."

After speaking, he first snipped off a small section of her Wrapped Chest along the knife wound.

To administer the medicine.

But this action immediately caused the already strained Wrapped Chest to tear upward a small distance, revealing a glimpse of snowy white tender peak.

"......"

Xu Yuan’s movement hesitated slightly, glancing at her as she lay there.

The Wrapped Chest Princess smiled and tilted her head at him, her eyes showing neither shyness nor concern.

Xu Yuan found the scene somewhat dull as his fingers, pressing on her wound, moved gently and slowly.

This was the first time in Xu Yuan’s memory that he was applying medicine for someone else, but somehow his movements were extremely proficient.

As if they were etched into his body.

A moment later,

he evenly spread the ointment over her wound.

However, when he glanced back at the beauty lying on the bed, he noticed something seemed amiss.

She was squinting her eyes, and her flawless, delicate face, aside from the fine sweat on her forehead, now had a layer of abnormal flush covering both cheeks.

"......"

Observing her like this, Xu Yuan raised his hand and touched his chin.

Chief Lou, that old woman, couldn’t really have mixed an aphrodisiac into this healing medicine, could she?

After waiting a while and seeing that Li Qingyan still didn’t react, Xu Yuan tentatively spoke out:

"Princess.....?"

Li Qingyan slowly opened her eyes, her heroic phoenix eyes now carried a hint of mist, and her husky voice trembled:

"What... what’s the matter?"

"It’s done," Xu Yuan reminded.

Li Qingyan took a moment to feel, then, resting her head on the soft pillow, her hair messily scattered behind her, shook her courtly head slightly, and even carried a hint of an elusive charm in her words:

"No... not enough, the medicinal effect isn’t enough, keep going," she said.

After speaking, she closed her eyes again.

Xu Yuan licked his slightly dry lips.

Oh no,

could this be a repeat of the classic scenario?

In the silence, an ambiguous atmosphere spread bit by bit within the room.

Li Qingyan’s voice interrupted her, sounding much steadier:

"Continue, the ointment you applied just now isn’t enough to dissolve the corrupt qi from the Barbarian King’s blade."

Xu Yuan coughed lightly and said:

"Princess, you’re a bit off right now, what I mean is... there isn’t really an aphrodisiac in this medicine, is there?"

As an exemplary youth of three no’s, he had to push off any responsibility beforehand.

After he spoke, the room fell silent for a moment.

So silent that Li Qingyan seemed to forget the pain.

After a long while,

Li Qingyan, with her eyes closed and long lashes trembling slightly, bit her lip and said in a low, clear voice:

"I can sense whether there is an aphrodisiac or not, and even if there is, I don’t care. The city is in peril now, healing is most important, if I don’t call for you, just continue..."

Alright, that’s exactly what I wanted to hear.

Xu Yuan no longer hesitated, he took out some more ointment and applied it rapidly to the wound on the waist of the Wrapped Chest Princess.

"......"

There was no cry of pain, but a rustling sound came from the bed.

Seemingly due to acute pain, the woman who was always holding a blade clenched her hands violently, her straight, fair legs curved slightly, and her sparkling feet grasped the fiery red sheets.

And the wound was visibly healing a little.

But she didn’t call for him to stop.

Continue.

Still she didn’t call for him to stop.

"..."

Just as Xu Yuan was about to apply more medicine, his half-kneeling posture at the edge of the bed stiffened slightly, and he suddenly glanced at the small black bottle in his hand.

Wait a minute...

If he hadn’t misunderstood, what Li Qingyan was saying just now seemed to be that there was no essence of a love potion in the medicine.

If there was no hallucinogenic effect....

Thinking this, Xu Yuan realized something, his expression becoming extremely strange.

In the silence,

Xu Yuan, expressionless, poured the whole bottle of green liquid directly onto Li Qingyan’s waist and then instantly used Origin Qi to gather all the liquid into the wound.

The next moment,

"Mmm...."

Her slender waist arched suddenly, a moan with a hint of allure echoed in the silent chamber.

To an outsider, they would probably never imagine that such a sound could come from the mouth of this female war deity.

And the instant the sound arose, Li Qingyan immediately opened those phoenix eyes.

As their eyes met,

looking at his strange and amused gaze in front of her, Li Qingyan’s gaze involuntarily shifted for an instant.

But it was only for an instant.

Settling down, Li Qingyan slowly got up, her fair cheeks still flushed, but her voice had returned to normal:

"The knife wound I suffered is already healed by ninety percent, Chief Lou’s medicine must be very precious, Prince Consort, if there’s anything you want, I can give it to you...."

"No need,"

Xu Yuan said, interrupting her, staring at her still rosy cheeks, moved closer inch by inch, and raised his hand to sweep a strand of hair sticking to her cheek behind her ear, his voice gentle:

"Qingyan, you’ve already given me what I’ve wanted just now, hmm... I’m really looking forward to our wedding day."
