At the Godly Tree Village, Qiao Yuyan, who was dressed in coarse hemp, sat on the edge of the bed and silently watched the pretty girl lying on the bamboo bed.
"She's so beautiful …"
The girl wore a snow-white dress, and her pale face revealed a few sickly features. Her eyebrows were like mountains, her nose was like cherry lips, and a faint cinnabar mole on her forehead added a hint of an otherworldly temperament to the originally delicate and fresh girl.
This was the second time that Qiao Yuyan had seen someone from outside the fishing village. The first person had left an indelible mark in her heart for the rest of her life. Now that she had saved another girl with the same temperament as that person in the same sea, Qiao Yuyan suddenly looked forward to the young girl on the bamboo bed waking up so that she might know more about the youth.
As if she felt someone sitting by her bedside, the girl's long eyelashes blinked and she slowly opened her eyes.
"You're awake?" Qiao Yuyan's eyes flashed with surprise. Seeing that the young girl was trying to get up, she quickly stepped forward and held onto her shoulder to help.
So cold!
Just as her hands made contact with the young girl's body, Qiao Yuyan felt an ice-cold sensation sweep through her body. If the young girl hadn't been so close, Qiao Yuyan would have thought that she had touched a pile of ice.
"You're feeling really cold. Are you feeling any discomfort?"
The young girl in the white dress was stunned for a moment before she slowly shook her head.
She half sat up and leaned on the bed. She looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and was about to open her mouth to say something when her gaze inadvertently swept across Qiao Yuyan's exposed wrist.
She could no longer open her eyes. Seeing the string of light blue gemstones on Qiao Yuyan's wrist, the young lady opened her mouth and choked with sobs, "The Heart of the Seas …"
Qiao Yuyan could clearly hear the whispers.
"You really know him … You know Brother Moley, don't you? Do you know where he went? You are good friends, right? " Qiao Yuyan's voice sounded a bit anxious, the few consecutive questions caused the young girl on the bamboo bed to freeze.
After a long while, when she saw the look of anticipation in Qiao Yuyan's eyes, the young girl smiled sweetly. In an instant, a hundred flowers bloomed in unison, causing Qiao Yuyan, who was also a woman, to feel a little absent-minded.
"What's your name?" At first, he was worried that something might have happened to him, but from the girl's reaction, it seemed like there shouldn't be any major problems.
Qiao Yuyan seemed to have realized that she had lost her composure, and a blush appeared on her face. She calmed down and smiled, "My name is Qiao Yuyan!"
"What about you? "What's your name?"
"Su Ran Xue."
"Su Ran Xue?" Qiao Yuyan mumbled to herself, her eyes revealing a little intoxication, "It's really nice to listen to, much better than my name …"
Curling their lips, the two girls looked at each other and giggled.
"You know big brother Mo Li?"
"Did he give you this bracelet?"
The two of them opened their mouths at the same time, and then turned their heads in embarrassment.
Women are sensitive!
One of them could call out the name of the man holding the bracelet at first glance, while the other one was asking about the owner of the bracelet. There was no need to explain any further, both of them understood each other's intentions.
The atmosphere in the room became tense. Although the two of them sat very close to each other, they did not continue speaking.
"Miss, you're awake?"
In the end, it was only Elder Qiao who came in to break the silence in the room.
Su Ran Xue let out a sigh of relief. Looking at the benevolent expression on the old man's face, she gratefully nodded her head: "Thank you for saving me. I, Xiao Xue, am endlessly grateful!"
"It's nothing!" Elder Qiao took a chair and sat on the edge of the bed. He looked at Su Ran Xue lying on the bed and hesitated to speak.
"I'll go cook!"
Qiao Yuyan escaped from the room at the right time and stayed with Su Ran Xue. She felt a little unnatural.
When Qiao Yuyan's figure disappeared from the room, Su Ran Xue looked at the hesitation on elder Qiao's face and spoke with a gentle smile: "Old man, you can ask whatever you want. Xiao Xue will definitely not hide anything from you!"
Although it was Su Ran Xue's first time leaving Xue Yue, she still knew that she shouldn't be too satisfied with her words. The old man seemed to have a lot of questions, but he did not say the words that he knew so well.
Elder Qiao nodded in admiration and asked the question that Qiao Yuyan had asked before: "Are you from the same place as Mo Li?"
"Yes sir!"
"Are you martial brothers and sisters?" Su Ran Xue hesitated for a moment before she slowly nodded: "I guess so!"
"You also came out to look for Master?"
"No, I'm here to look for him!"
"Oh …" After a slight hesitation, Elder Qiao asked the question that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time, "Your sect... At sea? "
There were very few people in that region of the sea. After being in the fishing village for so many years, Elder Qiao really did not know what sect existed outside that region.
"No, it's just that the exit is in that sea area!" Su Ran Xue didn't explain in detail about the Xue Yu matter. Moreover, even if she said this name, people outside might not have heard of it.
"Got it!" "Yes." Elder Qiao nodded and slowly got up. Lady, you should rest well. Mo Li and I are friends who have forgotten the new year, so you should stay here and recuperate peacefully. Your injuries are much lighter than before, you should be able to recover in about half a month! "
"Is he hurt?" Hearing that Mo Li was injured and the situation was quite serious, Su Ran Xue's face instantly became tense.
"Don't worry, his injuries weren't light when we rescued him, but he was completely healed after recuperating for half a year!" Elder Qiao smiled and left the room, leaving Su Ran Xue with her embroidered eyebrows pressed against the bed.
"Half a year..." After hearing the old man's words, Su Ran Xue basically confirmed that Mo Li was safe. However, when she thought about how he had already left this place for half a year, Su Ran Xue couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
From the looks of it, it wasn't just a day or two that they were going to find him!
After being torn apart by the spatial turbulence in the Outer World, the feathered clothes on Su Ran Xue's body became completely useless. She indeed needed some time to recuperate before she could continue on her journey. When she thought of the horrifying turbulence in the Outer World Passage, Su Ran Xue had a hard time imagining how Mo Li endured it at first.
This time, Su Ran Xue had donned the best defensive robe the Medicine Sect had to offer in order to barely resist the spatial turbulence. Although Mo Li was stronger than her, the turbulence was definitely not something he could withstand.
Thinking to that point, Su Ran Xue's mood got more and more anxious. She hiddenly had a feeling that although Mo Li wasn't in any danger right now, he was not in a good situation. This was a woman's sixth sense. There was no basis for it, but it made the young girl's worry grow even stronger.
Mo Li's current situation was not too good. After the news of the destruction of the Feral Tiger Mercenaries had spread, the Cloud Pursuing Pavilion had finally made their move!
