Chapter 273 - Phoenix Blood
I went out to search for Chen Ye's figure. I vaguely remember that there wasn't anything I needed to do today, and it had been a long time since I last received the list. However, I couldn't find Chen Ye even after searching everywhere else.
"Could he have left …" I thought back to what happened last night and self-deprecatingly smirked.
But it's good to go, lest I implicate him in the end.
After all, if I were to be said like that, I would probably be unable to bear to leave.
Although I was a little sad, I quickly accepted the reality.
After sitting in the courtyard for the whole day, he finally went to Chu Yu's room while trembling at midnight.
I was about to stab myself when the door opened behind me.
"I didn't want you to do that!" Chen Ye grabbed the blade in my hand, his face filled with anger.
He was really afraid that if he had come any later, something would have happened.
"Didn't you leave?" I looked at him in a daze. After all, I went overboard yesterday …
"I went out to do something and came back late." Chen Ye's face still did not look good.
Out of the corner of my eyes, I looked at Chu Yu who was lying on the bed. I then looked at the blade in Chen Ye's hand, and hesitated.
It's obviously impossible for me to snatch the blade back from him, but I can't give up on Chu Yu either …
For a moment, he felt mixed emotions.
Chen Ye naturally knew what I was thinking, and left the room snappily. Not long after, he returned with a small silver bowl in his hand.
"This is …" I was stunned.
"Phoenix blood, hurry up and feed it to him." Chen Ye stated in a bland voice.
Phoenix blood!
Where did he come from!
I was secretly shocked, I didn't expect Chen Ye to actually be able to get the Phoenix Blood, then he must have suffered a lot.
Thinking about Chen Ye risking his life for me, my eyes started to ache slightly.
"What are you doing, aren't you going to feed it?" Chen Ye tried to make sense of the situation, and he managed to cover the tremble in his voice.
I didn't sense it and immediately received it carefully, feeding it to Chu Yu.
Seeing that, Chen Ye pursed his lips and left.
I just turned around and saw his back. Under the moonlight, the blood on his back was particularly glaring.
Don't know... Is the wound on Chen Ye's back hurting my eyes, or was his lonely back hurting my eyes? I couldn't fall asleep no matter how I lied on the bed. Thus, I got up and went to Chu Yu's room.
"Chu Yu, oh Chu Yu, when will you wake up? Do you know that I really need you …"
I curled up on the ground. Chen Ye had done too much for me, too much for Chu Yu. I just wonder how Chen Ye is doing right now … His wounds... Again …
I stood up and walked towards Chen Ye's room. Before I could reach out to touch Chen Ye's door, I staggered two steps back due to the barrier.
A barrier? Chen Ye's barrier? How did it become like this? Even though I am a cripple, I can only be pushed back. I actually can't be harmed.
Because Chen Ye's barrier caused me to feel even more uneasy. That feeling was extremely strong, and it told me that Chen Ye had definitely suffered from a very serious injury. This Phoenix Blood, was absolutely not something that could be easily obtained.
Thinking about this, I didn't care about the barrier as I charged towards Chen Ye's door. Yet, I was forced to retreat by the barrier again and again. Maybe it was because I was too emotional and my actions were too loud that it landed on my wound. I covered my chest, then sat down helplessly in front of Chen Ye's door in pain. "Chen Ye, are you alright?"
There was no sound.
"Chen Ye? Chen Ye! Can you just answer me, I'm worried. " I shouted into the house.
It was still a silent night that answered me.
"Chen Ye! I'll say it one last time. Open the barrier! " I gritted my teeth as I extended my hand into the barrier, but my hand seemed to have suffered a great resistance, and no matter how hard I tried, I could only stretch out half a finger. Perhaps it was because I forcefully broke into the barrier, but the barrier finally knocked me away.
Chen Ye caught me before I landed on the ground. His face was still pale and he frowned, "Can you stop putting yourself at risk? I don't want you to get hurt, and... Chu Yu, he... I need you too. "
Chen Ye put me down and walked straight into the house. I followed behind him, "Chen Ye, are you alright?"
Chen Ye shook his head, "I'm fine, but you … with the Phoenix Blood, Chu Yu will wake up very quickly, so you need to take care of your body right now. Only when Chu Yu wakes up can we take care of him. "
"But this Phoenix blood almost took your life, your price is too big. It would be better to use the blood of my heart. " My eyes were misty.
When Chen Ye heard this, he lightly curled his lips. "A little Phoenix Blood, why would you want to take my life? You're underestimating me too much. "
I naturally didn't believe him and questioned him, "If you weren't seriously injured, then tell me, why is your barrier so weak? Your current barrier can only stop people like me who are struggling to survive. "
"NO!" "You are not someone who will struggle on the brink of death. You are just a little weak. Very soon, you will be better again." Chen Ye was a little excited.
"Then tell me, your Spirit Formation?" I turned to face him, the tears in my eyes blocking my view.
Chen Ye hesitated, "Setting up a barrier here is because I don't want to be disturbed while sleeping, and furthermore, the one who will disturb me will most likely be you. Are you stupid? "
"Then why haven't you set up a barrier before? "Why did you suddenly become afraid that I would disturb you?"
"Before …" "Before..." Chen Ye thought for a while, "In the past... It's just the two of us. I'm afraid that setting up a barrier would make both of us uncomfortable, but now … Chu Yu is about to wake up, so even if it's for Chu Yu's sake, the two of us should still avoid him, right? "
"Chen Ye." I looked at him, my face serious. "Don't you think your reasons are a little far-fetched?"
Chen Ye continued to laugh, "No, what I said was the truth."
I wiped away my tears. "Alright, I believe you. Then tell me now, how did you get this Phoenix blood? "
"Of course it's something that the invincible Chen Ye of this world caught easily." Chen Ye forced a smile.
I finally could not take it anymore and shouted, "Chen Ye! Do you really think I'm a fool? Furthermore, the phoenix is an ancient divine beast. No matter how powerful you are, you do not have three heads and six arms. Tell me, are you able to return unharmed? "
"I'm not hurt at all. My clothes are all torn. Also — That king of seventy-two pillars has to respect Chu Yu even more when he sees him. Naturally, it is Chu Yu who protects me. "
