Chapter 1389: Snowflakes Really Are Beautiful
Although Ye Xiao was injured, it was still quite easy for him to maintain the normal movements of an average person. It wasn't long before he went downstairs and walked out of the inn.
At this moment, snowflakes were drifting outside. It would indeed be strange if Han City, famed as Snow City, didn't have this kind of weather.
Ye Xiao quickly caught up with Qi Qianhan.
"Are you mad?" Ye Xiao approached.
Qi Qianhan sensed Ye Xiao nearby and turned to look at him.
"I'm not that petty!" Qi Qianhan snorted.
Of course, though her words said otherwise, Qi Qianhan was indeed a bit angry. She really couldn't see any merits in Ye Xiao. She didn't know if she would eventually grow to resent him and slap him to death.
"Since you're not that petty, why are you outside? Aren't you afraid some rogue might rob and assault you? You should know, men like me are rare." Ye Xiao said earnestly.
"Keep bragging." Qi Qianhan rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao and said, "But maybe you're right, people like you are indeed few — shameless and indecent!"
Ye Xiao burst into laughter upon hearing Qi Qianhan's words.
"Tell me, aren't snowflakes beautiful?" Ye Xiao suddenly asked.
Qi Qianhan found it odd that Ye Xiao suddenly changed the topic and said, "Do you think I'm in the mood to enjoy the snow with you?"
"The snowflakes are indeed beautiful!" Ye Xiao ignored Qi Qianhan's words and continued, "But every year, these beautiful snowflakes freeze some poor people to death. Do you still think they're beautiful?"
"What are you trying to say?" Qi Qianhan looked into the distance, her voice neutral.
"What I'm trying to say is," Ye Xiao smiled slightly and suddenly leaned closer to Qi Qianhan, "are you cold?"
Qi Qianhan was stunned by Ye Xiao's question, but then she was even more shocked.
Because Ye Xiao did something she never expected.
Qi Qianhan looked at Ye Xiao in disbelief. Ye Xiao actually took off his fur coat and draped it over her.
"Let's go back. Maybe it's because I dislike being watched, which made my words today a bit…" Ye Xiao didn't finish his sentence, instead letting out a soft laugh and said, "Let's go. As a proud disciple of the Cold Moon Sect, your responsibilities are no less than mine. Let's go."
Ye Xiao's words sounded really strange to Qi Qianhan. No matter how she thought, she couldn't understand what Ye Xiao meant.
Previously, in the corridor, Ye Xiao didn't sincerely apologize when he saved Tang Heng. But now, he was genuinely apologizing.
Qi Qianhan said nothing, but she still walked back to the inn with Ye Xiao.
After returning, Ye Xiao asked Zhou Hao to find a comfortable room for Qi Qianhan. When her room was confirmed, Ye Xiao stood at the door, smiled at Qi Qianhan, and said, "Didn't I say I would save you too?"
Qi Qianhan was puzzled by Ye Xiao's words. Obviously, she didn't quite understand what he meant by this.
Ye Xiao laughed and said, "I was just kidding earlier. But I'll come back soon to heal you."
"No need, I can handle it myself." Qi Qianhan said.
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "You said you wouldn't be petty, why be petty now?"
Qi Qianhan didn't argue further and said, "Alright, I'll wait. I don't believe you'll recover before I do."
Qi Qianhan knew Ye Xiao's injuries were more severe than hers, so she naturally couldn't believe he would recover before her.
"Doesn't matter. If I recover before you, I'll come to heal you. Oh, by the way, how is Luo Xin?" Ye Xiao looked at Qi Qianhan.
Ye Xiao remembered that when Wang Luoxin was unconscious, Qi Qianhan was fine, so she naturally knew about Wang Luoxin's condition.
Qi Qianhan said, "Her injuries are serious. If you could recover your Inner Strength before me, you might help heal her. But in your current state, it's too difficult to help her before me."
Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "We'll see."
Then, Ye Xiao left.
Closed the door.
Qi Qianhan found it amusing. When she turned around, she realized she was still wearing the fur coat. She considered returning it to Ye Xiao but hesitated and decided to keep it for now.
The story splits here!
After Ye Xiao left Qi Qianhan's room, he was sweating on his forehead.
Going out and coming back with Qi Qianhan, Ye Xiao's body remained in a state of strain.
As Qi Qianhan suspected, Ye Xiao was severely injured, so after returning to his room, he immediately sat cross-legged and started cultivating to heal.
The Heavenly Book, known as the Nine Yang Divine Skill, is not mainly for harming others but for saving people.
The energy for saving people is strong, so it's naturally more useful for self-healing.
A few hours passed in a blink. Ye Xiao's injuries this time were much more severe than before, so he seriously focused on healing.
Originally, Ye Xiao could casually use a whole night to quickly heal his internal wounds.
However, as he was cultivating, there came a knock on the door.
Ye Xiao opened his eyes slowly, frowning. Being disturbed at such a moment did not please him.
But then Zhou Hao's voice came from outside.
"Boss, Miss Wang is coughing up blood."
Although initially displeased, Ye Xiao jumped up in shock upon hearing Zhou Hao's words and quickly rushed to the door.
"What happened?" Ye Xiao opened the door and asked Zhou Hao standing there.
"Boss, Huo Feng has been taking care of Miss Wang, but her condition worsened. Huo Feng tried to heal her, but Miss Wang…" Zhou Hao said anxiously.
Hearing this, Ye Xiao's frown deepened.
"Let's go!"
Ye Xiao said, and together with Zhou Hao, headed to Wang Luoxin's room.
It wasn't long before Ye Xiao and Zhou Hao reached Wang Luoxin's room, where several people had gathered.
Seeing Ye Xiao approaching, everyone greeted him.
"Brother Xiao!" Huo Feng looked at Ye Xiao, her usually cold face now filled with worry.
Ye Xiao said nothing and went straight to Wang Luoxin's bedside. Her face was as pale as paper, and there was a large pool of blood on the floor. She remained unconscious.
