C19 Immortal Sage Why Don't I Follow You up the Mountain
This time, Sheng Xueyin was a little confused. He quickly supported himself on the bedmast and waited silently for Qu Lingjing's reaction. Qu Lingjing, on the other hand, had just woken up from her dream. She did not know what had happened. She rubbed her forehead and woke up from the chaos. She looked at the image in front of her with misty eyes.
It was not a big deal. When he saw that shocking face, he immediately woke up, not to mention that this person was holding onto the bedmast and staring at him with eyes filled with water. He did not say anything, which made Qu Lingjing panic. The atmosphere in the room immediately fell into a strange state.
"What happened just now? I think something hit you on the head. Were you hit?"
Sheng Xueyin pursed his thin lips, tucked his chin in, and nodded dryly. "I knocked you down."
"Huh?" Qu Lingjing could not control his expression. His mouth was open like a goldfish, as if he had given up on treating everything in front of this person. When he thought about how making such a big fuss was against his mature and steady style, he quickly retracted his surprised expression and pretended to be calm." Oh."
Qu Lingjing looked at Sheng Xueyin's powerless state and did not ask why he kowtowed to him.
"How does the Immortal Sage feel? Is he feeling uncomfortable?"
Sheng Xueyin sat up and steadied his body and head. He carefully felt it for a while before answering Qu Lingjing, "It's fine."
Just from the weak voice alone, Qu Lingjing knew that Sheng Xueyin's condition did not match up to those two words at all. It was just that he did not want to say it. However, this person's weak voice was much more interesting than when he was cold. It made people want to bully him. Qu Lingjing quickly coughed a few times and pushed this nonsensical thought out of his mind.
Sheng Xueyin waited for a while. Seeing that the other party had nothing else to say, he did not want to create any conversation. He lifted the blanket and got out of bed. This time, he had learned his lesson. He got up very slowly, afraid that he would accidentally fall down again. He did not want to fail in front of the same person for the rest of his life. After trying hard for a long time, he finally found a serious problem. Hmm. Yes. He still couldn't get up.
From Qu Lingjing's point of view, that was not the case at all. What Qu Lingjing saw was that the beauty stood up very slowly, sat down, and sat for a long time. She lowered her head and continued to think. For a long time, there was no movement, as if she was thinking about something important.
Qu Lingjing was even more worried that he was testing the condition of the demonic Qi in his body. Perhaps he had found something, and his heart was experiencing a huge shock. His heart could not help but hang in the air, unable to go up or down. Just as he was about to say something to comfort him, the beauty suddenly spoke:
"I can't get up."
Qu Lingjing wanted to laugh when he looked at his serious expression at this moment, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he held back his laughter and said: "The Immortal Sage has been poisoned a little, and is fine now. It's just that his body is still very weak, so just lie down properly. If there's anything you need me to do, just call me."
"How long will this last?"
"It won't last long. I'll arrange something for you to replenish your strength later." Qu Lingjing happily poured a bowl of water and handed it to him. Sheng Xueyin stretched out his head, which was wrapped like a white steamed bun, and was about to take it when he realized that his hand was trembling slightly. He put it back.
Qu Lingjing pretended not to see and brought the bowl to his mouth. Sheng Xueyin was stunned for a moment and then obediently drank it.
For a moment, Sheng Xueyin's gaze lingered on something for a moment, then quickly shifted to Qu Lingjing's face. There was a hint of panic on his face.
Qu Lingjing didn't know why, but he just couldn't stand the man's gaze. It was like being surrounded by thousands of spotlights. He couldn't help but want to turn his face away.
Qu Lingjing tried hard to think about what part of the conversation had caused Sheng Xueyin to have such a reaction and finally thought of a problem.
"Ah! I almost forgot that the Immortal Sage has an extraordinary body. He can survive without eating, but he can't avoid drinking some medicine. Immortal Sage, bear with it."
"If Qin Yubing is fine, I would like to return to the sect first. I'll have to trouble you to take care of me."
Qu Lingjing was a little depressed. Why didn't this person speak according to the rules? He thought that he would ask about his physical condition and detoxification, but in the end, he just left without saying a word. How was he supposed to answer this? Was he going to forcefully hold him down?
"Immortal Sage, in your current situation, it's best not to be tired. Why don't you rest here for ten to fifteen days? It won't be too late to return after your body is completely fine." Qu Lingjing was afraid that telling the truth might be a huge blow to this cold and stubborn beauty, so he just wanted to find another way to keep him here and make further plans.
"No need... I'll deal with it when I get back."
Qu Lingjing noticed that his hand was trembling slightly as he spoke. It was obvious that he was still trying to get up.
After staring at him for a few seconds, Qu Lingjing realized in shock what he was trying to do and what he was trying to hide. Sheng Xueyin was not an ordinary person, and his thoughts could not be judged by the common sense of ordinary people.
His reaction when he drank the water... must have been because he saw the wound on his hand. He didn't ask about his condition because... he knew everything. He didn't want to stay here because he didn't want to drag others down.
Qu Lingjing had never met such a person who actually treated him so lightly. Could it be that all people who had cultivated to a certain level were like this?
A light breeze blew, and the curtain at the window was lifted into a corner, and a leaf slipped silently in, and fell lightly on the table, as if something were falling into someone's heart and stirring a corner.
After a moment of silence, Qu Lingjing raised his head with a smile and looked at Sheng Xueyin with a gentle gaze.
"Immortal Sage, it just so happens that Qin Yubing's body still needs to be treated, and those who are not of my race can't do it. I'm not at ease leaving it to others, so Immortal Sage, can you allow me to go to the sect with you for a few days?"
Sheng Xueyin instantly froze. His hand, which was holding onto the bedmast, tightened, and his eyes drooped. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Qing, do you really want to follow me to the sect?" Qin Yubing's excited voice came from the door.
Qu Lingjing raised her head. Not only was Qin Yubing standing at the door, but there was also Xue Jingyin, who had her arms crossed in front of her chest. Her eyebrows were raised, and her face was ugly.
The night before he went to the Profound Sect, in Xue Jingyin's room, someone faced Dr. Xue, who only had his back to him, and tried to organize his words.
"You didn't go back to the Profound Sect for Qin Yubing," he said firmly.
"You can tell?" Xue Jingyin was a smart man. It would be strange if he tried to hide it any longer. Qu Lingjing did not intend to hide anything from him.
"Only Qin Yubing would believe such a lame excuse." Xue Jingyin rolled his eyes, his face full of displeasure, but he held back his temper. After all, he would not be able to see her for a while on this trip. It was not worth it to leave a fiendish impression.
"Nianzhi, I know you are worried about my safety. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself. I will return to the Devil Realm in half a month and cook for you when I come back, okay?"
Xue Jingyin was both angry and amused by Qu Lingjing's words. It turned out that he was thinking of him cooking for him.
"I'm not worried about you. I'm afraid that you, who have no sense of importance and no sense of self-preservation, will come back with a face full of wounds, and I'll have to clean up for you. I wish you wouldn't come back. I am happy to be free. "
