Chapter 54 - Why Did You Harm the Newbies?

Liu Yuan was supported, and he was half-lying on the bed in Ning Xiangrong’s real boudoir with a weak face. He almost vomited blood and sighed in his heart, ‘It’s so good to be alive…’

He did not expect that the first serious injury he suffered after transmigrating was not because of a battle, but because of the Asura Arena.

Ning Xiangrong sat next to him, hurriedly taking out the pills. Jer eyes filled with tears as she fed him the pills, took off his clothes, and applied medicine to his wounds.

“I’m … I’m sorry. I was too impulsive just now,” she said apologetically.

“I’m fine. I’m still alive, aren’t I?” Liu Yuan waved his hand. He was almost suffocated to death inside, but fortunately, Ning Xiangrong stopped in time.

He was really lucky to be able to keep his dog life.

Ning Xiangrong looked at his pale face with heartache and pursed her lips. “It’s my fault, I even suspected that, in the room, you….”

Yes, you guessed it right. I was in a battle of wits and courage with a woman you don’t know in the room, and you were almost cuckolded right in front of me.

Liu Yuan tilted his head and looked at her. He felt rather tired and did not want to speak at all.

Ning Xiangrong thought he was angry that doubted her, and she was worried. For a moment, her heart was a little sad. Her nose was sour, and she actually choked up a little. “Sob, sob…”

Because of love, even the fairy who did not care about worldly affairs would cry.

But… I’m not worth your tears.

Liu Yuan thought to himself as he reached out to wipe the tears off her face. He leaned closer and said softly, “Don’t cry. You’re already a Core Formation great Immortal, and you’re still crying?”

“Yes.” Ning Xiangrong nodded, wiped her tears, and reached out to pull his hand down and put it on the edge of the bed. She held it tightly and said, “I don’t know why you’ve lost a lot of Qi and blood. It must be because you used too much force when you were trying to break into the Soul Formation stage. I’ll help you heal.”

“Alright, then thank you, Rongrong.” Liu Yuan was pushed by Ning Xiangrong and turned around. Two white and tender palms were printed on his back.

Ning Xiangrong pursed her lips and said, “If you could be more careful and not try to break into the Soul Formation stage so rashly, that would be the best way to thank me. How could you be so casual about it? At least, you should fine a safe cave and prepared the pills and array. Now, not only did you fail, but you also lost Qi and blood, and your strength was greatly reduced.”

Liu Yuan did not feel annoyed listening to her nagging. Instead, he felt a warm and quiet family-like warmth. He could not help but answer, “Yes, yes.”

In his heart, he was thinking about the so-called ‘Qi and blood deficit’.

Liu Yuan concluded that the Heart Entanglement must have been scattered in his blood, and it was in blood form when it was pulled out by Pihuan Luo.

He did not believe that the Heart Entanglement spell only had two functions, positioning and attracting.

If he had gained all of Pihuan Luo’s trust now, that meant he had not before. Perhaps Pihuan Luo had used the Heart Entanglement on him to prevent betrayal.

As for how to prevent betrayal, he would probably have to detonate his entire body’s Qi and blood and die in pain.

Liu Yuan could not help but shiver.

It seemed that he did not transmigrate completely… The tricks that he had used in the game seemed to be retained.

Forget it, forget it. I won’t think about it anymore. If I continue to think about it, I’ll scare myself to death.

Liu Yuan’s heart was filled with misery and sorrow as he concentrated on meditating to heal his injuries. With Ning Xiangrong’s help, the spiritual power in his body was warm and flowing. His injuries were also recovering quickly, and he was a little sleepy after a while.

To be fair, this was the first time he had felt so tired after transmigrating for so many days.

‘Sigh, I thought the past few days were exciting enough. I didn’t expect it to be just the beginning. Liu Yuan reflected deeply on himself. I was too young and too naive. I was really childish.’

He was only a Qi Refinement stage newbie!

Why did they have to harm him like this?!

Liu Yuan sighed and held his head. It was rare for his eyelids to be so heavy. He felt like he was reliving the feeling of staying up late to play games.

Ning Xiangrong stopped behind him, reached out to hug his waist, and put her sharp chin on his shoulder. “You’re tired?”

“Yes.”

“Then we won’t cultivate. Let’s sleep.”

Ning Xiangrong very considerately made the bed. Her face was red, and she lay down opposite Liu Yuan. She raised her head slightly and used her eyes to trace the outline of the young man’s face.

“Why are you looking at me?” Liu Yuan asked, puzzled.

Ning Xiangrong immediately retracted her gaze and turned her head, “No, I was just lying down and looking around.”

“Oh…” Liu Yuan looked at her red ears and suddenly reached out to pull her into his arms. He rubbed his chin against her soft hair.

Ning Xiang grunted twice, then popped her head out and took a big breath, angrily saying, “Liu junxuan!”

She met Liu Yuan’s eyes and suddenly whispered, “A ‘Yuan…”

Liu Yuan patted her head and smiled. “That sound just now was like the Ning Xiangrong I used to know. She looked high and mighty without any human touch, but she was actually very shrewish when she was angry.”

Ning Xiangrong pinched him with a red face. “Who’s the shrew?”

Liu Yuan gritted his teeth and pretended to be in pain. Ning Xiangrong quickly went forward to check, but was gently hugged by him, and instantly quieted down.

Liu Yuan suddenly chuckled and said, “Whoever scolds people after I steal their clothes is a shrew.”

Ning Xiangrong muttered, “That’s only to you.”

Liu Yuan hugged Ning Xiangrong like he was hugging a pillow. The warm and soft body was very nice to hug, and the faint fragrance made him feel at ease. He sighed and soon fell asleep.

Sure enough, Rongrong was the best.

Ning Xiangrong shrank into Liu Yuan’s arms and stole a glance at Liu Yuan’s relieved expression. She closed her eyes and found a comfortable position, smiled faintly, and fell asleep with her clothes on.

The next day.

The news that Liu Yuan had walked out of Ning Xiangrong’s room spread like wildfire.

The Dock Master’s son-in-law’s conclusion was basically decided and spread.

As Liu Yuan walked on the road, he could feel that the Water Moon Dock disciples were looking at him with too many emotions in their eyes. There was curiosity, jealousy, envy, and disdain.

“There’s no choice, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being fat,” Liu Yuan said to himself.

Once again, he came to the room where he had met the Dock Master Ning Tingshan. This time, he was here to discuss the marriage.

He pushed the door open. Not only did he see the Dock Master, but he also saw Zou Wenrui, whose Dantian had been sealed by him the other day.

And Zou Zishi.

Zou Wenrui was as thin as a bamboo pole. He stared at Liu Yuan with a dark expression.

“Isn’t this Elder Zou?” Liu Yuan smiled. “I thought you would hide for a while before coming out.”

“I’m just an old man. What’s there to hide from?” Zou Wenrui snorted.

Liu Yuan’s gaze seemed to be smiling yet not smiling as he turned to Zou Zishi. “You’re not afraid of death, but what about your son? Don’t you need to hide?”

Zou Zishi clenched his fists tightly. His expression was cold but he did not say anything. It seemed like he had found out about Liu Yuan’s true cultivation level from Zou Wenrui.

Ning Tingshan looked at both sides, coughed twice, and said, “Why must you be so hostile? Little Friend Liu will sooner or later become a member of the Water Moon Dock.”

Zou Wenrui suddenly shouted, “Dock Master, please look into this. I’ve invited a Ghost Messenger from Fengdu Realm. He can summon nephew Yue’s soul. We only need to ask and the truth will be revealed!”

He cupped his hands in obeisance and looked at Liu Yuan with a cold gaze. “Please don’t let the Righteous be wronged, and don’t let the despicable be free to do as he pleases. People like him should be punished by the Righteous. He is not worthy of being your son-in-law.”
