Chapter 106: Come, let me try, big sister

"By the time we regained our memories, all the Tianwu Sect disciples were lying on the ground, and Senior Sister Ming Ning had also fainted."

Jiang Xun continued, "Although we couldn't make sense of the situation, since the Tianwu Sect disciples had already been taken out and we were all wounded, we went to the City Lord Mansion to recover under Gu Qing's lead."

————

Two days after the total annihilation of the Tianwu Sect...

"I am truly so grateful to you, Immortal Master! If not for you saving Qing'er and saving Shuiyun City, I truly wouldn't know what to do!"

Jiang Xun lay on the bed with bandages wrapped around his stomach, while Gu Junshou knelt directly on the floor nearby, shouting repeatedly.

"Father! Master is still injured; what are you doing?"

Gu Qing hurriedly supported Gu Junshou's arm and shouted.

"No, no, no, I must express my gratitude!"

Gu Junshou slowly pushed Gu Qing away and said.

"City Lord, please get up quickly. In my current state, it is truly inconvenient for me to rise."

Jiang Xun also smiled helplessly.

"You saved Qing'er, saved Shuiyun City, saved our whole family, and even took Qing'er as your Personal Disciple. I—I truly have no way to repay you!"

"From this day forward, everyone in Shuiyun City is willing to obey your orders, Immortal Master Jiang! Even if you asked me to lead men to attack the Imperial City, I wouldn't even furrow my brow!"

Gu Junshou looked at Jiang Xun and shouted.

"You mustn't, you mustn't. You cannot speak so recklessly."

Jiang Xun gave a wry smile. You might have lived enough, but I haven't yet, and you're talking about attacking the Imperial City...

Why don't you say you're going to fight a Supreme while you're at it?

"Father, hurry and go out first, let Master get some proper rest!"

Gu Qing dragged Gu Junshou up from the floor and shouted.

"Then, may I take my leave?"

Gu Junshou looked at Jiang Xun and asked tentatively.

"Mm."

Jiang Xun naturally nodded.

Seeing Jiang Xun nod, Gu Junshou hurriedly backed out.

"This City Lord is truly too enthusiastic."

Tu Qing walked over from the side, carrying medicine in her hand, and sat by Jiang Xun's bed.

"It's quite annoying."

Jiang Xun nodded and smiled.

"Senior Brother, hurry and take your medicine."

Tu Qing smiled, scooped a spoonful of medicinal soup from the bowl, blew on it gently, and brought it to Jiang Xun's lips.

"Just give it all to me."

Jiang Xun drank what was in the spoon and reached out to take the bowl.

What is the difference between drinking Chinese medicine spoonful by spoonful and being tortured?

After drinking all the medicine in one go, Jiang Xun handed the bowl to Tu Qing and asked, "How is Senior Sister?"

"Senior Sister is still unconscious. After I finish feeding you your medicine, I still have to go check on Senior Sister."

Tu Qing replied.

"Good, then hurry and go."

Jiang Xun nodded.

"Mm."

Tu Qing nodded, then stood up and left the room.

After Tu Qing left, Jiang Xun climbed out of bed. In truth, the knife wounds on his body had long since mostly recovered, and since Jiang Xun was at the Golden Core stage, this knife wound wouldn't even leave a scar.

After leaving the room, Jiang Xun arrived at the other side of the City Lord Mansion; this was the side courtyard where the people from the Baihua Sect were staying.

Because everyone from the Baihua Sect was severely injured, Yin Ningyu was currently busy running back and forth in every room, and she also had to decoct medicine for them.

"Let me help you."

Jiang Xun arrived at the kitchen entrance and said to Yin Ningyu, who was decocting medicine, from behind.

Yin Ningyu was startled for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Xun: "Why are you up? How is your injury? I've been busy taking care of Senior Sister and the others for the past two days and haven't had time to go see you."

After realizing what was happening, Yin Ningyu hurriedly stood up and looked at Jiang Xun with a face full of concern.

"Is this little scratch even worth mentioning?" Jiang Xun smiled and took the fan for the fire from Yin Ningyu's hand: "I'll watch the medicine, you go."

"... Mm." Yin Ningyu was silent for a moment, then nodded and walked toward the room.

Just as Jiang Xun sat down, Yin Ningyu ran back and crouched down beside him: "Thank you."

"It's just decocting medicine, what are you thanking me for?" Jiang Xun saw this and smiled; Yin Ningyu looked like a well-behaved little girl.

"Thank you for helping me decoct the medicine, thank you for saving me, thank you for helping me save Senior Sister and the others, thank you for blocking the blade for me... In short, I owe you too much."

Yin Ningyu looked at Jiang Xun, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red again.

"Is that all you're going to say, thank you?" Jiang Xun was slightly taken aback at these words, then smiled.

"I..."

Before Yin Ningyu could finish her sentence, Jiang Xun leaned forward, kissed Yin Ningyu gently on the lips, and then pulled back: "That's how it should be done."

Yin Ningyu's little face turned red, but she did not refuse, nor did she say anything more; instead, she took the initiative to lean forward, wrap her arms around Jiang Xun's neck, and kiss him on the lips.

She gently closed her eyes.

After a long while, the two finally separated.

"I, I'll go check on Senior Sister."

After Yin Ningyu realized what she had done, she hurriedly ran away with a blushing face.

"I didn't expect that." Seeing this, Jiang Xun couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth into a smile; after watching Yin Ningyu run off, he focused on decocting the medicine.

Once the medicine was decocted, Jiang Xun and Yin Ningyu went to deliver it to her senior and junior sisters.

When they arrived at Liang Ru's room, Liang Ru looked at Jiang Xun, wanting to say something but stopping herself, only picking up the bowl to prepare to drink the medicine.

"I decocted this medicine."

Jiang Xun said out of the blue.

Liang Ru, who had just touched the rim of the bowl to her lips, immediately stopped her movements and silently moved the bowl further away: "You didn't drug it, did you?"

"Look at you." Jiang Xun clicked his tongue: "In your current state, I could finish you off in two or three moves; would I even need to use drugs?"

"Who knows what kind of ulterior motives you people from the Lingerie-Sect are harboring?" Liang Ru was deathly afraid that Jiang Xun had slipped her some kind of aphrodisiac.

"Senior Sister, Jiang Xun is only helping out of the kindness of his heart. If it weren't for Jiang Xun, I wouldn't have been able to rescue you all. Please don't say things like that..." Yin Ningyu hurriedly said upon hearing this.

"..." Hearing Yin Ningyu say this, Liang Ru didn't say anything more and drank the medicine in one gulp.

"Poison you to death!" After Jiang Xun glared at Liang Ru, he left the room with Yin Ningyu.

"I'm sorry, Senior Sister is just like that." After walking out of the room, Yin Ningyu said softly while carrying the tray beside Jiang Xun.

"If it weren't for your sake, I would have cursed her to death just now." Jiang Xun said, looking at Yin Ningyu upon hearing this.

Yin Ningyu smiled when she heard this: "Just curse? With your temperament, you should have just taken action directly, right?"

"Being cursed to death is the most stifling way to go." Jiang Xun said with a smile, putting his arm around Yin Ningyu's shoulder.

Yin Ningyu did not refuse; in her view, the relationship between the two of them now belonged to that of lovers.

"You're finished here, I'm going to go check on my senior sister." Jiang Xun then said, looking at Yin Ningyu.

"Okay." Yin Ningyu nodded: "Shall I go with you?"

"Better not, my senior sister's tongue is even sharper than your senior sister's." Jiang Xun waved his hand and said.

"That's true..." Thinking of Ming Ning's mouth, Yin Ningyu also grinned.

After saying goodbye to Yin Ningyu, Jiang Xun arrived at Ming Ning's room, where Tu Qing was combing Ming Ning's hair.

She hadn't been injured, so she didn't need to drink any medicine or anything.

"Senior Sister, you're awake." Seeing this, Jiang Xun walked quickly to Ming Ning's side.

"Are you alright?" Ming Ning asked, looking Jiang Xun up and down.

"Fit as a fiddle." Jiang Xun nodded and said.

"Fit as a fiddle?" Ming Ning smiled upon hearing this, patted the side of her bed, and lifted the quilt to reveal a fair, white thigh: "Come, let Sister test that."
