1336 Chapter 23 Xi Xue Love Story

Bíng Huo shouted and made Xi Xue sat down in an instant. She took off her outer clothes and draped it around one guy's shoulder before letting him lean on the ice wall behind. 

"I know there's something wrong with you." Bíng Huo glared at the dumbfounded guy with bloodshot eyes. "Your hand is so cold, you must be freezing!" 

Xi Xue blinked softly and stared at the girl in front of him. She took off her outer just to not let his back touched the ice wall. 

"I'm really fine…" Xi Xue murmured when Bíng Huo grabbed his chin without care. 

"No, you aren't. Your face is so pale! Now tell me, something must have happened on the way here." The girl forced the guy to look at her. 

She herself squatted, not looking like a lady at all. 

Xi Xue blinked innocently and tilted his head. "What are you saying- " 

"If you don't answer, I'll shove this truth pill down your throat." Bíng Huo took out a blue pill from her storage ring and threatened the guy.

Her eyes glinted. It looked sharper than ever. Her whole being looked like a small little cat trying to threaten a lion. 

Seeing Bíng Huo was so eager to help, Xi Xue couldn't help but laugh. 

"Haha. Hahahah!" The guy covered his eyes with his palm and sighed. 

"I can never deceive you, huh?" he murmured. 

'Why you know I'm not alright? Why you care so much?' Xi Xue stared at Bíng Huo without speaking. 

He was silent for a few seconds before smirking. 

"Okay, I admit. My back was wounded by that wind when we fly here." The guy raised both of his hands in 'surrender' pose. 

Hearing this, Bíng Huo's eyes widened. She looked at Xi Xue in disbelief. 

"You are what?? Wounded?!" The girl shouted, her voice echoed in the cave. "Quick, show me your back!" she urged the guy making Xi Xue reluctantly turned around. 

'So naggy ah.' He glanced at Bíng Huo who was checking his wounds. 

The girl's face was serious and once she saw Xi Xue's back, she almost fainted. 

The clothes itself was drenched in blood yet she didn't see any of this before! 

"Did you use illusion to hide your wounds?!" Bíng Huo's eyes turned teary. She slowly touched Xi Xue's back and the man flinched. 

"...mn." He innocently nodded. The man would occasionally shudder but he didn't groan even for once. 

Bíng Huo didn't say anything else and just turned Xi Xue around to face her. She took out several pills from her storage ring and spoke, 

"Here, eat these. The wound will heal in no time." Bíng Huo handed the pill in various colour to Xi Xue. "The red one is blood pill, to replenish your blood loss, " she started to explain. 

"The white one is to heal the wound. The rest is to prevent inflammation." 

"Mn." Xi Xue obediently took the pill and looked down at his palm. "Can I eat this all in one go?" 

'Won't it be dangerous?' 

"Okay. Thanks." Xi Xue hurriedly gulped the pills and indeed, seconds later he felt his wound was slowly healing. His blood wasn't cold anymore and it felt warmer each second. 

! 

"This is good pills." Xi Xue's eyes widened. 

'I don't think we have this kind of pill at the higher realm. Is this a new type?' 

"Where do you get this?" Xi Xue looked at Bíng Huo with sparkling eyes. "This is good. Very good." 

"Ah...if you ask me…" Bíng Huo's cheek flushed red. "I made it?" 

Xi Xue's body stiffened. The guy gawked at Bíng Huo without blinking. 

"You? But isn't senior brother still a student…" 

'This kind of pill can't be made by a low-level alchemist!' 

"Well, I did make it….even though I'm still a student, my skill is on par with a licensed alchemist out there." The girl rubbed her nose. 

'In fact, I'm one of the top 10 alchemists in the province and this is why I have to hide my gender.' 

"Senior brother, are you serious?" Xi Xue gulped nervously. He didn't know why but he looked at this girl in a new light. 

'No wonder she's in the elite students batch. It's not because her grandpa is the headmaster!' 

Xi Xue inhaled and exhaled, trying to calm his mind. 

'So this girl is actually not weak. She's awesome.' 

Xi Xue then lifted his head. He looked at Bíng Huo and sighed. "Don't ever show your pills to others." 

"Ah?" Bíng Huo tilted her head. "I rarely give out my pills- " 

"Just don't. Okay? Also, don't tell anyone you are the one making these pills," Xi Xue warned. "You should know why I say this right, senior brother?"

"....I know." Bíng Huo solemnly nodded. 

'If people know I'm so young and can already make a high-level pill, I might be abducted and forced to make pills.' 

Bíng Huo looked at Xi Xue and coughed. "I only tell you." 

'Because I trust you.' Is what she couldn't say. 

"Mn, good. I won't harm you so you can trust me." Xi Xue nodded. "I'm not interested in pills anyway." He shrugged. 

Bíng Huo could only snort and silently sulk around. 

'I know you're not into pills. From the way you hide your wounds in front of me an alchemist….that's obvious!' 

"Good, good." Xi Xue nodded in satisfaction. 

'Only I can know everything about you. Only me. Others can't know!'
