Chapter 585: Chapter 585: Healing in the Cave_1

In the afternoon, people had already arrived in Cloud Mist Mountain. Yu Yanshu heard voices coming from outside the cave, making her immediately tense.

Beasts were not the main fear for her, she could handle them, but if she encountered an expert, that would be dangerous.

Yu Yanshu quietly made her way to the entrance of the cave and saw several people in the forest outside.

"Do not know what’s happened within Cloud Mist Mountain, but a mountain collapsed, and the ever-present mist has finally dispersed."

"Let’s not worry about that now, let’s look around. If we’re lucky, we might find some natural treasures. A few days ago at the trade conference, someone was exchanging Elixirs and secret manuals for medicinal herbs. If we can also get our hands on some medicinal herbs, we might be able to trade them for some Elixirs."

Hearing this conversation, Yu Yanshu became even more apprehensive.

They had been seen by many at the trade conference exchanging Elixirs for medicinal herbs. If they found this cave and broke into it, they would surely rob it.

Yu Yanshu was very nervous. Fortunately, the cave was hidden and covered by vines, making it difficult to discover. The people searched around the vicinity, found some animal corpses, and then gradually moved away.

Yu Yanshu patted her chest and took a deep breath.

"It appears that the great array of Cloud Mist Mountain has broken, which will attract many treasure hunters into the mountain."

At this moment, Yu Yanshu didn’t dare to leave the cave with the unconscious and heavily injured Su Chengyu. It was safer to stay in the cave.

Nightfall came quickly, with occasional roar from beasts echoing in Cloud Mist Mountain.

In his coma, Su Chengyu started to mumble.

"Nan Zhi, don’t leave me!"

"Xiaoxiao, where are you? Your brother misses you."

"Chu Xue... Chu Xue..."

Sweat poured from Su Chengyu’s head, as he mumbled incoherently. Yu Yanshu quickly infused him with Mana, a worried look on her face.

Su Chengyu started to run a fever, big beads of sweat emerging on his face. He seemed to be trapped in a nightmare, his body convulsing.

Cultivators are usually immune to illnesses, but Su Chengyu’s condition was now quite dire. After what happened with Lin Chuxue, his mind was affected. Coupled with the torment of the witchcraft, his body started showing symptoms of discomfort.

All Yu Yanshu could do was use her limited Mana to alleviate Su Chengyu’s pain. His fever persisted for several hours, and then he began to show symptoms of cold intolerance.

His lips turned purple, and he shivered uncontrollably, weakly mumbling: "So cold, so cold."

Yu Yanshu had exhausted her Elixirs and her body’s Mana was nearly exhausted. She could no longer infuse Su Chengyu with Mana, and she couldn’t extract any Elixirs from the Cui Xia Ring that Su Chengyu had.

When she touched Su Chengyu’s forehead and hand, they were icy cold, giving her a shock.

"How can this be happening?!"

In a panic, Yu Yanshu feared to make a fire for warmth in the cave. The only thing she could do was lie next to Su Chengyu, holding him tightly.

But that didn’t alleviate Su Chengyu’s symptoms. He kept mumbling about how cold he was. Yu Yanshu discovered that his blood seemed to be congealing. If this kept going, things would look dire!

"Master, I’m sorry, Yan’er can only offend you this way."

Yu Yanshu slowly undressed herself, then proceeded to undress Su Chengyu too. As an eighteen-year-old, this was the first time she saw a man’s naked body in such a manner.

Despite being mentally prepared, she still blushed, biting her lips tightly, before holding the ice-cold Su Chengyu tight against her and covering both of them with a blanket she pulled out from her storage bag.

Yu Yanshu’s current level of cultivation allowed her to resist the cold and heat. All she could do was use her body to warm Su Chengyu, sharing her body heat.

Sharing her body with Su Chengyu, who was not affected by cold or heat, was physically chilling to the bone. Thankfully there was abundant spiritual energy available in the Cloud Mist Mountain that Yu Yanshu could absorb; otherwise, she would not have been able to fend off the chill from Su Chengyu.

Yu Yanshu’s injuries had not fully healed and she was very tired. Before she knew it, she fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was the next day. Su Chengyu’s cold symptoms had disappeared, but he was still unconscious, and his condition was not so good.

"Master, you must hang in there! You still have so many things to do!"

Yu Yanshu wiped away her tears, redressed both of them. This incident would be her biggest secret, one she could never reveal.

Just as Yu Yanshu finished dressing, she heard movement at the mouth of the cave. She quickly picked up her Lanyong sword and ran out, only to find a beast had somehow found the cave.

The beasts of Cloud Mist Mountain were much different than the outside world, exhibiting various mutations.

This wild boar was two to three times bigger than a normal one. It was injured and now that it had found the cave, it couldn’t squeeze in. It began ramming the cave entrance.

Yu Yanshu was worried that the boar’s commotion would attract others. She knew she had to quickly chase it away or kill it.

With one stab, she only managed to strike the boar’s eye, causing it to squeal, but this only made it more frantic. It withdrew its head and then rammed the entrance with its body.

Although the boar was quite large, Yu Yanshu was confident she could kill it. After all, her powers were comparable to a Ninth Grade Grandmaster.

Yu Yanshu, armed with her sword, rushed out of the cave. The boar was now in a rage seeing red and promptly charged at her.

Yu Yanshu quickly withdrew, moving as far from the cave entrance as possible to avoid making it easy for any passersby to discover the cave.

She lured the boar a hundred meters away into the woods. Despite its mutation, the boar was just brute force and coarseness, recklessly charging and roaring.

Now, without Master’s protection, Yu Yanshu finally had to face actual combat. After everything that had happened, she knew Master couldn’t protect her forever. She also had to grow up to help Master.

Yu Yanshu tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, biting it, gripping the Lanyong sword tightly as she steadied herself to face the ferocious mutant wild boar.

The boar roared and charged again. Yu Yanshu immediately sprang up, taking the opportunity to stab it in the back.

The boar roared again, twisting its body. Yu Yanshu promptly pulled out the Lanyong Sword and launched an offensive.

She needed to end this quickly, to avoid causing a scene.

Even though the boar’s strength was extraordinary and its skin was resistant, Yu Yanshu still had her magic weapon. She managed to kill it on the spot.

After the boar let out a dying scream, it fell to the ground. Yu Yanshu withdrew her sword, wiped the blood off her face, and panted heavily.

If she were in her prime, killing this wild boar wouldn’t have been so challenging.

But just as Yu Yanshu killed the wild boar and was about to head back to the cave to cover the entrance, three men emerged from the forest. They were experts from the Suifeng Martial Arts Family, of the Jin family.
