Chapter 225: Not Misjudging the Person Again

A long while passed.

Not until Xing Li felt a sense of suffocation did Wang Jianqiang finally loosen his grip.

Relishing the sensation on his chest, a pure smile bloomed on his face.

At the same time.

Xing Li, like a startled little deer, jumped away the instant Wang Jianqiang let go.

She glared at Wang Jianqiang, her face so red it was as if it might drip blood.

Seeing this scene, Mu Lingxi walked over to her side with some surprise, circled around her, and clicked her tongue in wonder, "Why is your reaction so intense just from a hug? Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

Upon hearing this, Xing Li was speechless.

She couldn't help but slander her in her heart.

Do you think everyone is as lawless as you, this witch?

I have never been hugged like this before, so what is wrong with having a big reaction?

Of course, she certainly couldn't say these things out loud.

Therefore, facing Mu Lingxi's rogue remarks, she could only remain silent.

Fortunately, at this moment, Wang Jianqiang spoke up at the right time, breaking her embarrassment, "Xingli Xianzi, this is the Soul Jade for you."

As he spoke, Wang Jianqiang waved his palm.

Ten Jade Beads flew before Xing Li.

Xing Li's expression instantly returned to normal; she took the Soul Jade and nodded at Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "It is merely a transaction, so there is truly no need for you to be grateful to me, Fairy; after all, there will not be a next time."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Xing Li was startled and immediately reacted.

The expression on her face changed in an instant, transforming into one of deep gratitude.

"Daoist Friend Wang, that is where you are wrong. How precious is Soul Jade? To be able to obtain ten of them for such a simple request—this is not a transaction at all, it is clearly you, Daoist Friend, intentionally gifting me an opportunity."

"I will certainly keep your kindness in my heart, Daoist Friend."

Saying this, she bowed deeply and sincerely to Wang Jianqiang.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang hurriedly stepped forward to support Xing Li's slender, boneless shoulders, "Fairy, you must not do this; these are but small favors."

Xing Li still did not rise, stubbornly shaking her head, "A treasure such as Soul Jade is by no means a small favor."

"This is a great kindness."

Hearing this, a look of helplessness appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face, "I have already said there is no need to thank me; you are being too polite, Fairy."

Xing Li shook her head and said sternly, "Since you have thought of me so considerately, Daoist Friend Wang, how could I act as if nothing happened?"

"How would that be any different from an ungrateful villain?"

"Your character is truly noble, Fairy; I did not misjudge you." Wang Jianqiang sighed with emotion, then continued, "Fairy, feel free to take these Soul Jades for your cultivation; if you run out in the future, just come and trade with me again."

Xing Li's eyes lit up, "The same kind of transaction?"

"Naturally." Wang Jianqiang nodded with a smile.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Xing Li was overjoyed.

Only then did she straighten her back.

One day later.

A somewhat weak, petite figure walked slowly out of the room.

Wang Jianqiang awoke from his cultivation.

Looking at the petite figure, he immediately stood up, "Fairy Yun Xin, you are awake?"

Yun Xin nodded with a flushed face, then her expression shifted, and she said to Wang Jianqiang, "Daoist Friend Wang, your illness should be cured by now, right?"

Just then, Mu Lingxi, who was cultivating nearby, opened her eyes.

Upon seeing Yun Xin, she immediately stood up.

"Fairy Yun Xin, thank you for your hard work."

As she spoke, she walked toward Yun Xin with a face full of gratitude, "In five more times, Senior Brother's strange illness will be completely healed."

Yun Xin was stunned, "Does Lingxi Fairy mean that Daoist Friend Wang still needs to rest for five days?"

Hearing this, Mu Lingxi smiled and shook her head, "Fairy Yun Xin, you have misunderstood; this 'five times' does not mean five days."

Hearing Mu Lingxi's words, Wang Jianqiang's eyes lit up.

This girl is becoming more and more sensible.

"Lingxi Fairy, isn't five times just five days? Why am I having trouble understanding?" Yun Xin's expression was somewhat bewildered.

Just then, Wang Jianqiang glared at Mu Lingxi, "You girl, what kind of dialect are you speaking? How could Fairy Yun Xin understand that?"

As he spoke, he looked at Yun Xin with some embarrassment, "Do not take offense, Fairy Yun Xin; the so-called 'five times' actually means five more sessions."

"?"

A large question mark appeared over Yun Xin's head, "What five sessions?"

Wang Jianqiang coughed dryly, "Just like before."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Yun Xin's eyes widened instantly.

"Are you unwilling, Fairy Yun Xin?"

"If so, then let us leave it at that."

Wang Jianqiang sighed, "I am already very grateful that you were able to help me once, Fairy Yun Xin."

"Presumably, after this time, the strange illness on my body should be able to subside for a year or a year and a half; by then, even if the illness flares up again, being able to live this extra year or year and a half is worth it."

Wang Jianqiang's tone was very carefree.

Yet for some reason, Yun Xin detected a sense of heartache in it.

Her heart could not help but ache along with it, and she could not help but blurt out.

"Daoist Friend Wang, Yun Xin is willing to help you."

Five days later.

Wang Jianqiang walked out of the room.

Behind him, Yun Xin, with a somewhat pale complexion, walked out while supporting herself against the wall.

"Many thanks for Fairy Yun Xin's hard work over these past few days; these Soul Jades can be used to improve Soul Power, so I shall gift them to you."

Wang Jianqiang waved his hand, and over a hundred Soul Jades appeared before Yun Xin.

Soul Jades!

Looking at the large patch of Soul Jades floating before her, Yun Xin was dumbstruck.

She had once seen Soul Jades on Ye Lingyun and had even obtained a few, so she knew very well how precious these things were.

Back then, Liang Zhai, the number one person in the Array Path in Shenhuo City, had not hesitated to risk danger and agree to kill for Ye Lingyun just for thirty Soul Jades.

The value of Soul Jades was evident.

And now, Wang Jianqiang had actually gifted her over a hundred of them so casually!

"It is only right for Yun Xin to help Daoist Friend Wang; Daoist Friend need not be so polite. These Soul Jades are too precious; Yun Xin cannot accept them."

Whether from excitement or being startled, Yun Xin's speech became somewhat stuttering.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head, "Fairy Yun Xin, there is no need for such courtesy; this is what you deserve."

"I still have thirty Soul Jades on me kept for backup, so you may rest assured and accept them."

Upon hearing that Wang Jianqiang had only kept thirty Soul Jades for himself and given the majority to her, Yun Xin was moved.

She was even more unwilling to accept them.

"Fairy Yun Xin, Senior Brother has always been sincere in his dealings with others and never acts falsely; he has never taken back anything he has given away."

"You should just accept these Soul Jades."

Just at this moment, Mu Lingxi also began to persuade her.

Following that, Wang Yuyao and Su Yutong also woke from their cultivation and joined in the persuasion.

Under the persuasion of the three, Yun Xin hesitated repeatedly, but in the end, she nodded.

"Since that is the case, then Yun Xin will no longer decline."

After speaking, she waved her jade hand and collected all the Soul Jades before her.

Afterwards, she secretly glanced at Wang Jianqiang, a glimmer of brilliance flashing in her eyes.

This Wang Jianqiang was not only kind and upright, but also so generous.

Compared to him, Ye Lingyun was far too inferior.

After having mistakenly trusted the villain Ye Lingyun, she had finally not misjudged a person again.
