Chapter 1043: Chapter 1063: Didn’t Expect It’s Really You, Demon Clan’s Saintess!_1

Nalan Wushuang spoke casually, but Lin Chen knew that she must have struggled with her decision for a long time before coming. After all, she was risking her life, and a slight mistake could have been fatal.

Warmth rose in Lin Chen’s heart; this woman had actually risked her life just to see him!

Lin Chen looked down and saw himself covered with a large towel. He could feel that he wasn’t wearing anything underneath, with his skin directly touching the towel.

Slightly troubled, Lin Chen asked, "Who treated my injuries?"

Nalan Wushuang’s face turned red, but fortunately, the light in the cave was dim, and she wore a veil on her face, so Lin Chen couldn’t see her blush.

"I did."

Lin Chen’s mouth gaped wider subconsciously, and he wanted to say something but didn’t know how to start. Finally, he settled with, "Thank you."

Nalan Wushuang hummed in response and changed the subject: "How are you feeling?"

Lin Chen moved his neck: "Almost rusty, that last Thunder Tribulation was too fierce, it directly suffocated me, and I was only able to complete the breakthrough to Transforming God with my last ounce of consciousness before fainting..."

Nalan Wushuang nodded: "That’s good... Congratulations on advancing to the Transforming God realm."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "At least, my efforts weren’t in vain."

Nalan Wushuang asked curiously, "The Black Profound Stone Essence Bead?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, they were calculated and trapped by the Skeleton Bandit Gang and the Luohan Gang. I saved them, and then they gave me the Essence Bead."

Nalan Wushuang’s eyes sparkled with a smile, "You finally had your chance."

Lin Chen chuckled, "Despite them being bandits, they are decent people. I couldn’t bring myself to take advantage of them."

Nalan Wushuang hummed in agreement, just as the sound of footsteps approached from the entrance.

Yelü Yuan and Gao Yi entered side by side, and Yelü Yuan laughed, "Awake now?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, how long was I unconscious?"

"Not too long, just three days."

Yelü Yuan laughed, "As soon as you fainted, your wife came over and has been taking care of you these days."

Lin Chen grinned sheepishly, "Sorry for the trouble, everyone."

Gao Yi laughed, "What’re you talking about? We’re all here, healing our injuries just like you. How are you feeling now?"

Lin Chen tried to get up but stopped, realizing that he was still without clothes.

"I’m fine now. What’s the plan next?"

Yelü Yuan chuckled, "You’re all good now. You guys can talk for a while, and we’ll talk more later."

Yelü Yuan and Gao Yi left. Lin Chen took out clothes from his Spatial Ring, and Nalan Wushuang silently turned her back to him, but she didn’t leave.

After all, she was Lin Chen’s wife. If a husband changing his clothes required his wife to leave the space, wouldn’t that be suspicious?

Soft sounds of fabric rubbing against each other came from behind her, and Nalan Wushuang’s ears turned slightly red.

"Done."

Lin Chen said, then asked in a low voice, "Yelü Yuan didn’t recognize you?"

Nalan Wushuang whispered back, "When I arrived, he was inside the cave, and the light was dim. I was wearing a veil..."

Lin Chen realized and thought for a moment, "I’m fine now. You should leave first. I’ll be safe here. Go back to Xingyuan City and wait for me."

Nalan Wushuang nodded. Since Lin Chen had saved the lives of the bandit gang members and everyone was getting along well, she didn’t need to worry. So, she could return first and wait.

Although she didn’t want to stay alone in Xingyuan City, her identity was sensitive, and if Yelü Yuan recognized her, it could cause problems. Besides, as a woman, it wasn’t appropriate for her to stay with a large group of men.

"Let’s go. I’ll walk you out."

As they walked out of the cave, they discovered that Yelü Yuan and Gao Yi were not inside. They were sitting outside on chairs.

Yelü Yuan saw them coming out, looked them over, and laughed, "You look refreshed. Your Promotion was quite a spectacle, and I bet your strength increased a lot."

Lin Chen chuckled, "I was lucky, almost couldn’t make the breakthrough."

Yelü Yuan gestured to an empty chair. "Sit."

Lin Chen didn’t sit and said with a smile, "I have something for my wife to do. I’ll escort her first."

Yelü Yuan was puzzled, "Leaving already?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yeah, it’s urgent."

Yelü Yuan didn’t mind, "All right."

Lin Chen sighed with relief and said quietly, "Let’s go. I’ll walk you."

Nalan Wushuang nodded, just as she was about to take off, a gust of wind suddenly blew through the mountains, lifting her veil and revealing half of her face.

Yelü Yuan had been watching the pair and happened to see this. Upon seeing Nalan Wushuang’s face, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Wait!"

Lin Chen’s heart skipped a beat, as he too saw Nalan Wushuang’s lifted veil.

Damn! Yelü Yuan had seen her face!

Yelü Yuan stood up, his eyes instantly becoming sharp and stern.

"I’ve felt like I have seen you somewhere before but didn’t think much of it. I didn’t expect that you’re actually the Sacred Maiden Nalan Wushuang of the Demon Race!"

Everyone from the surrounding bandit gang members was shocked and stared at them.

Did Lin Chen’s wife happen to be the Sacred Maiden Na Nan Wushuang of the Demon Race?
