“However, this is absolutely necessary!” Ling Tian said solemnly, “Ling Jian, this matter concerns life and death! Besides, Miss Xiao only turned out this way to save you… Of course, if you feel troubled, we can forget about this matter! You can allow her to enter her afterlife with her chaste body. It shall be your own choice!”
Ling Jian’s face flushed red as he stammered, “I… how am I someone like that? Miss Xiao turned out this way in order to save me, how can I watch by the side without doing anything? Wouldn’t I be worse than a beast?!”
Ling Tian was overjoyed in his heart and was waiting for those words from Ling Jian. He then continued calmly, “What are you waiting for? This matter cannot be delayed! The longer you drag it out, the more dangerous her internal injuries will be. Quickly follow me and find a quiet place for you to treat Miss Xiao’s injuries. I will guard the two of you. The most important matter at hand would be to treat her critical injuries!”
Justice was about to be done with matters and with his wisdom he would definitely be able to see through this plot. Ling Tian wasn’t willing to let this medical saint interfere in his plans.
Besides, while Xiao YouHan’s injuries were severe, they definitely weren’t fatal. If she ends up waking up…
Indeed, the moment Ling Tian said those words, Ling Jian became anxious. Looking at Xiao YouHan’s complexion, Ling Jian felt as though her complexion took a turn for the worse and her breathing became heavier…
“Just this alone wouldn’t be enough and it would only be able to save her life. If things go wrong, there may be severe repercussions and she may be paralyzed for life!” A crisp voice could be heard. However, the voice seemed to be holding something in with great difficulty. This voice belonged to Justice. He then said slowly with the sagacious aura of a medical saint, “If you want to ensure that she makes a full recovery, you have to adjust her Yin with your Yang, the heavens and earth becoming one, and ensure that both vital Yin and vital Yang becomes one!”
Ling Jian was startled, “Ah? Really?”
Ling Tian glared at Justice and scolded, “Lecher!”
Justice smiled in response, “You are talking about yourself right?! Ling Jian let me tell you, actually…”
Ling Tian quickly corrected himself and interrupted Justice, “Ling Jian, it was my oversight previously and Senior Justice’s words are right. Quickly follow me and find a quiet place to save her in case anything goes wrong.” He then pulled Ling Jian out and did not bother saying anything else to Justice.
When the two figures departed, Justice’s solemn face suddenly burst out into laughter as he muttered to himself, “This Ling Tian is truly too… talented!”
In a small room at the Above Heavens sect, the windows and doors were shut tight. Ling Tian was currently patrolling the vicinity as he eavesdropped on what was going on in the room.
In the room, Ling Jian seemed to be hesitating before the sound of clothes being taken off sounded. Ling Tian’s brows were raised in excitement and he could not help but clap his hands. A long while later, Ling Jian’s heavy breathing could be heard as though he was exerting a great deal of force. Ling Tian held onto his stomach and laughed soundlessly until his sides ached.
All of a sudden a ‘PA!’ sound could be heard as though someone was slapped hard in the face. An embarrassed cry could then be heard, “Lecher! What are you doing?!”
Ling Jian’s flustered voice could be heard, “I.. I… I… I am trying to… to save… save you… don’t misunderstand… you are severely injured and… this is the only way to save you. I… I…”
“Wu wu wu…” The sound of whimpering could be heard.
“That… that… I…” Ling Jian sounded like he wanted to give an explanation but couldn’t say a thing.
“How will I have the face to meet anyone in the future? Wuwuwu… I… I don’t want to live anymore! Wuwuwu…” The lady’s voice was full of grief.
Ling Tian gave her a thumbs up. Fantastic! She is truly fantastic! These are truly the best words to say at this moment.
After stammering for a long time, Ling Jian finally managed to force some words out, “I.. I was really trying to treat your injuries…” His voice became softer and softer, knowing that he was in the wrong. At this moment, Ling Jian finally realized that he had never heard about such a treatment method before…
However, Ling Jian was previously too flustered with worry and could not be bothered about whether the treatment method was logical…
Hearing those words, the voice of the woman became louder and was filled with grief and anger, “Treat my injuries? For you to treat my injuries in such a manner, you are defiling my innocence. I might as well die! Wu wu wu… I am the daughter of a good family. How can I let you trample over my innocence like that? You… you lecher!”
“I am really not a lecher!” Ling Jian was truly exasperated, “I… I… I… I… I… why don’t I… I take responsibility for you!”
“Responsibility? How will you take responsibility?” The female voice continued. Ling Tian who was on the outside was full of praise.
“I… how about I marry you? Would that be enough?” Ling Jian’s pitiful voice sounded. Without even looking, Ling Tian knew that this subordinate of his was definitely had a face covered with sweat.
“You… lecher! You… you… why does it seem like you are suffering a huge loss?! Do you think this Miss cares about that? Hmph! If you are so unwilling…” The woman’s voice whined with a tinge of embarrassment and anger.
“No… no.. it isn’t a loss, it isn’t a loss.” Ling Jian said, “I… I earned…”
A voice of extreme embarrassment sounded as she reprimanded, “Are you doing a business deal? What do you mean by earning or losing? Fool!”
“Hehehe… hehehe…” A wave of foolish laughter could be heard.
“Turn around!” Xiao YouHan’s voice sounded.
“Why?” Ling Jian was stunned.
“I… I am going to put on my clothes!” Xiao YouHan flew into a rage, “Turn around, you pig!”
“Err err… oh oh oh…” Ling Jian hurriedly nodded his head.
Following which, the sound of clothes rustling could be heard followed by a long period of silence. Following which, the two of them whispered to each other but Ling Tian couldn’t hear those words clearly. Just when he was about to circulate his inner qi to eavesdrop, he heard a wave of ‘pa pa pa’ sounds.
Ling Tian immediately retreated a couple of feet away and covered his ears with disgust, “Isn’t their progression too fast? The sheer speed of their progression is superior to even this young noble…”
Ling Tian hid in a corner sneakily as he looked around carefully. If someone found out that the world famous young noble Ling Tian was eavesdropping on his number one subordinate, he would truly be embarrassed!
A long while later, the door creaked open and Ling Jian walked out full of energy. He didn’t seem as though he had just been through a large battle and was full of energy with his spirits high. He looked as though he would be able to defeat two elephants even they were placed before him!
Xiao YouHan followed behind with her face flushed red as she twiddled with the corner of his shirt. Her face was lowered as she looked at her dressing carefully afraid that her clothes would look messy and get teased by others. While her lips were pouted angrily, the joy in her eyes betrayed her true emotions.
“Young noble, young noble, are you still there? Miss Xiao is alright. I have saved her already. Young noble…” Ling Jian cried out gleefully the moment he exited the room. How could he not share such a joyful matter with the young noble?
Pig! You are a pig! Ling Tian cursed in his heart. How could Ling Jian call out for him the moment he comes out? Isn’t this akin to openly saying that there was someone keeping guard on the outside when her injuries were being ‘treated’? How would a lady like her be able to face anyone in the future?
If Xiao YouHan had some doubts and asks a few questions, she would be able to easily find out this matter was Ling Tian’s doing. From the beginning to the end, it was all part of Ling Tian’s plans. At that time, things would truly be awkward…
However, since Ling Jian had already cried out for him, it would be even more suspicious if he didn’t appear. Helpless, he could only reluctantly walk out. “I am over here.”
“AH?!!!” Indeed, a loud gasp could be heard and Xiao YouHan’s face changed color as she looked at Ling Tian, “Young noble Ling… Crown Prince Ling… was outside? Then…”
Ling Jian had a big smile on his face as he continued, “If not for young noble guarding the place for us, your injuries wouldn’t have recovered so quickly. Senior Justice had even asked me to ensure that the heavens and earth become one but you were okay before I even did so…”
“PIG! You are a pig! Stupid pig!” Xiao YouHan’s face was completely red and she began pinching Ling Jian all over in frustration and embarrassment.
“Err… ah ah… cough… you two continue… Mmm, you guys continue and I shall take my leave.” This was naturally the best time for him to make his escape. After leaving behind those words, Ling Tian escaped.
Ling Jian’s face contorted in pain as a pair of dainty hands pinched him all over his arms, shoulders, back, thighs… 360 degrees in a single pinch… 180 degrees… 720 degrees…
Err… some details are best left out…
The next day morning.
At this moment, the Green Ripple Immortal Park still had smoke rising up from many areas and the previously beauty of the place was completely destroyed! There wasn’t the slightest bit of elegance from before!
Ling Tian stood on top of the wall and let out a long sigh as he looked around.
After a full night of battle, not only was Above Heavens wiped out from the face of the continent, the Xiao Family was also wiped out alongside it! The past number one financial magnate in the world had been reduced to such a state!
Both Ling Chen and Li Xue walked over like two fairies. In the battle last night, the three of them had split up to watch over a separate district. Looking at the expression on both of their faces, Ling Tian knew that nothing went wrong.
“In the battle last night, everything in the Western Courtyard went well! Of the 313 Above Heavens disciples, not a single one escaped alive. Two hundred and ninety of them were killed on the spot and 23 captured. However, about a hundred odd individuals from the Western Courtyard died. Thankfully, the few important individuals were safe.” Li Xue said calmly.
