Who Taught You To Cultivate Immortality Like This?

Chapter 41: Hmph, Consider Yourself a Gentleman

Xu You looked down and saw that Luo Qiaoqiao's face was faintly covered in black qi, sweat forming on her forehead, and her complexion showing signs of pain.

"What's wrong?" Xu You asked with concern.

"I've been poisoned," Luo Qiaoqiao weakly replied.

Xu You immediately pulled up the sleeve of her opponent's clothes and saw a black wound on her arm, inflicted by Xue Beishang's poisonous dagger.

"Take this, it can detoxify," Xu You immediately took out a fiery snake Beast Core and brought it to Luo Qiaoqiao's lips.

Without any doubt, she lightly opened her lips and swallowed two pills. Seeing the black qi on Luo Qiaoqiao's face start to dissipate, Xu You finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the backlash from the intense battle made it impossible for him to control himself. He quickly let go of Luo Qiaoqiao's body.

With his tense mind relaxed, he was immediately overwhelmed and fell into a deep coma.

After taking the pills, Luo Qiaoqiao immediately began to meditate, not even paying attention to Xu You who had fainted halfway on her thigh.

At dawn, Luo Qiaoqiao was the first to wake up. Xu You's pills had completely cured her. However, the intense battle had left her feeling a bit weak.

The sky gradually revealed a pale light, casting a faint glow on Luo Qiaoqiao. The redness from the fiery snake Beast Core was particularly evident on her fair face.

Her cheeks were rosy, like peach blossoms in early spring, and her smile was charming.

She wanted to get up, but Xu You was still unconscious, leaning against her thigh.

This prolonged position made her legs feel numb, and the intimate contact with Xu You added a tingling sensation to the numbness.

Looking at Xu You, who was peacefully sleeping, Luo Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes.

It couldn't be denied that Xu You had a really good appearance, especially his long eyelashes, which were particularly captivating under the dim light, catching Luo Qiaoqiao's attention.

It was strange to say that although she had only known Xu You for two days, she had a good impression of him.

Although she initially thought he was a playboy when they first met, her impression of him had been overturned after getting to know him.

Especially after finding out that he was Mo Yuhuang's disciple, the fan filter automatically applied to Xu You, making her think of him as the most upright gentleman.

And the facts that followed proved this to be true.

Last night, Xu You's Divine Ability was peculiar, not to mention the rat demon with its special discerning ability. The three sword auras at the end also completely refreshed her understanding.

But she knew that the backlash from those sword auras was also very strong. She had been practicing dual cultivation techniques and had seen enough of such things.

She was well aware of the characteristics of Xu You's backlash from last night.

It was clearly an indescribable reaction.

Especially when she hugged him while he was poisoned, the scorching heat that came from his body made Luo Qiaoqiao's heart race even now when she thought about it.

With such a strong backlash, Xu You didn't make any inappropriate moves towards her.

"Hmph, consider yourself a gentleman," Luo Qiaoqiao muttered softly, raising her chin slightly.

At this moment, Xu You's eyelids twitched lightly. Luo Qiaoqiao instinctively pushed Xu You away from her, her blushing face showing a hint of shyness.

After a while, Xu You slowly woke up. He first looked around in a daze, then turned to look at Luo Qiaoqiao, who was raising her chin slightly.

He immediately got up and asked, "Luo Shijie, are you okay?"

"It's fine," Luo Qiaoqiao nodded gently.

Xu You couldn't help but notice the rosy complexion on Luo Qiaoqiao's face, which was a result of the potent medicinal effects of the Fiery Snake Beast Core. He looked to his left and saw the intact bodies of Fang Yuan and Xue Beishang lying there, which put his mind at ease.

However, he still felt a lingering fear. The Moral Sword was indeed effective, but its effects were not to be underestimated. He would have to be more cautious in the future.

He looked at the Demonic Rat Talisman in his hand, which had already turned grayish-white, and felt a sense of regret and nostalgia. The remarkable effects of the Pure Love Rat Rat in the past few times were visible to the naked eye, but unfortunately, he would never see them again.

"Xue Beishang is dead. Can we report it now?" Xu You composed himself and asked.

"We came here to kill him in the first place," Luo Qiaoqiao replied. "He has done many evil deeds, who knows how many innocent women he has harmed."

"Luo Shijie was incredibly brave last night, using Heavenly Thunder Talisman to defeat the enemy," Xu You praised with a smile.

"That Heavenly Thunder Talisman was given to me by my master for self-preservation. Any cultivator below the fifth realm would die from it," Luo Qiaoqiao explained.

Xu You was not surprised. Without such a powerful life-saving skill, Luo Qiaoqiao would not have been able to undertake this mission alone.

"The matter here is settled," Xu You stood up and walked to Xue Beishang's body, observing it. "Luo Shijie, don't you find something strange about Xue Beishang?"

"Yes, I can't pinpoint it exactly. Let me take the body back to the sect and have the elders identify it," Luo Qiaoqiao also stood up.

Her legs felt numb, almost causing her to lose her balance.

"Alright, then this mission is considered complete. Congratulations, Shijie," Xu You said with a smile.

"I took care of it, so there shouldn't be any problems," Luo Qiaoqiao proudly raised her head and then reached out her hand to Xu You. "Give me your communication jade talisman."

"Why does Shijie need it?"

"Just give it to me!"

Xu You obediently handed over his communication jade talisman.

Luo Qiaoqiao immediately took out her own communication jade talisman and quickly added Xu You's contact information.

"Don't think too much about it. You said you wanted to do business with alchemy, so that's why I added you," Luo Qiaoqiao explained as soon as she finished adding.

Xu You nodded with a smile. "Alright, Luo Shijie."

"Let's go." Luo Qiaoqiao summoned a rope and tied Xue Beishang's body. As she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped, speaking in a casual tone with her back to Xu You. "Next time, we can go out and have fun together if you're free."

Xu You was momentarily stunned but nodded. "Alright, Shijie."

"Let's go." Luo Qiaoqiao waved her hand and turned into a streak of light, flying into the distance.

Xu You watched her ethereal figure disappear into the horizon before carrying Fang Yuan's body in the opposite direction.

After all, Fang Yuan was the director of the Demon Hunting Bureau. Killing him required an explanation to the Great Zhou authorities, including the remote branch of the Great Zhou royal family, Zhou Changkun.

Soon, Xu You returned to the forest where Bai Genshuo had been tied up earlier. As soon as he landed, he saw a brutal scene.

Zhou Changkun was lying on the ground, groaning and twitching from time to time. Bai Genshuo held a large wooden stick, feeling content.

This round was a great massacre by the Five Grain Daoist Court.

Xu You furrowed his brows slightly, not because he thought Bai Genshuo had done something wrong, but because he was somewhat shocked. He didn't say anything, understanding Bai Genshuo's anger. He had almost been violated earlier, and now he was simply returning the favor.
