Shen Yanxiao whispered, “Who would be so skilled in their first try?”
Not even a god could accomplish that feat!
“Is it good?” Xiu’s voice sounded beside Shen Yanxiao’s ears.
Shen Yanxiao shivered.
Why did she feel that Xiu’s question was ambiguous?
Good?
Or not?
If she were to say it was good, wouldn’t it mean that she was… very comfortable with it?!
If she were to disagree…
That would be deceiving oneself and others!
Shen Yanxiao felt that she should not have discussed this with Xiu, and decided to play dead.
Xiu did not continue to challenge Shen Yanxiao’s mind. As the most outstanding god among the eight major races, he could even understand things like ‘falling in love’ without a teacher and was thus exceptionally talented.
After Shen Yanxiao drank more than a dozen bottles of healing potion, her injuries had evidently improved. Even though the wounds on her arm were still severe, at the end of the day, only her bones were broken, unlike those three at the entrance of the Moonshine Tribe where their arms were directly cut off.
Broken bones were connected to tendons. Elves were born with a certain healing ability and so coupled with the help of a grandmaster potion, Shen Yanxiao could clearly feel that her broken bones were starting to heal.
At that moment, Shen Yanxiao did not dare to move. The slightest mistake could cause her bones to become crooked.
Xiu stood by Shen Yanxiao’s bed without a single word. There was no emotion on his cold face. If it were not for that unforgettable moment, Shen Yanxiao would have thought that what happened was a dream.
The regeneration of her bones was an unbearable process. Shen Yanxiao felt as if there were countless ants gnawing on her arm. It was itchy and numb. That feeling was worse than getting cut by a knife.
Fine beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. Shen Yanxiao could only grit her teeth and endure.
Outside Shen Yanxiao’s room, An Yan paced back and forth. When she saw Shen Yanxiao’s condition, she was about to go crazy. She did not have the time to think about the background of the human that Shen Yanxiao brought back. She only wanted to see Shen Yanxiao safe and sound.
However, she did not have the courage to open the door as she stood before it.
Shen Yanxiao was her granddaughter, and she knew that.
An Yan, who had been strong all her life, suddenly did not know how to face Shen Yanxiao.
She knew that it would not be easy for Shen Yanxiao to fight against Yu Ying, but she still chose the safety of the Moonshine Tribe. She had let Shen Yanxiao down, and she did not have the courage to face her again.
“Leader.” An Feng walked to An Yan’s side and when he saw the loneliness on the usually strong An Yan’s face, he felt sorry for her. He did not know of Shen Yanxiao’s identity, but she was still the Moonshine Tribe’s benefactor. He thought that An Yan’s loneliness and guilt were another layer of chilliness.
“The three elves Yu Ying brought with her are dead and she has been sent away.” An Feng said.
An Yan was stunned.
“Was it done by that human?” No matter how powerful Shen Yanxiao was, it was impossible for her to fight against three people at once. An Yan could only think of that terrifying human.
“I don’t know. Yu Ying was severely injured. And if not for the fruit of the Tree of Life the Elf King gave her, I’m afraid she would have died.” An Feng still had lingering fears. The blood stains in front of the gate of the Moonshine Tribe was a ghastly sight. The reason why Yu Ying was still alive was because every Saintess would have a fruit of the Tree of Life. That was practically a second life for elves, and it was precisely because of that that Yu Ying had managed to escape a calamity.
