Heart Protection (Back from the Brink)

CHAPTER 85

Although in the end the fox lust fragrance wasn't successfully refined..........

"I'm not from Qing Qiu." Tian Yao was cold toward the scholar. Saying that, he was about to leave again when Liu Mu Sheng hurriedly moved forward again and grasped Tian Yao's elbow, not carrying about consequences. Tian Yao was carrying Yan Hui, so he didn't have a free hand to shake off Liu Mu Sheng. "It doesn't matter if you're not part of Qing Qiu. Just now I heard you two were going to Qing Qiu. May I dare ask, Sir, if it is convenient, if you can take me too?"

"It's not convenient." Tian Yao's response was cold. He stimulated the magic in his arm and easily pushed Liu Mu Sheng away. The aura around Tian Yao's feet increased. Liu Mu Sheng, who fell down, saw this and repeatedly yelled: "

"I'm just an ordinary person with no scheme. I just want to leave this difficult place. I hope Sir can help me!" No matter what Liu Mu Sheng said, Tian Yao wasn't moved at all. The scholar gritted his teeth and extremely unwillingly revealed, "To be honest, the head of Guang Han Sect, Su Ying, adores me and is devoted to me. Even though Sir is a demon, perhaps you have heard of what Su Ying has done for me........." He paused. His words sounded like they were squeezed out between gnashing teeth.

The scholar was silent. Tian Yao was even more silent.

No one knew better than Tian Yao what Su Ying had done to others in order to capture the heart of the one she loved.

"I won't bring up the rest. Sir, take me to Qing Qiu. Perhaps you can use me as blackmail to Su Ying." Liu Mu Sheng looked downcast, revealing embarrassment and grief, "I'm willing to be Qing Qiu's chess piece, but not willing to stay at Guang Han Sect a moment longer.......I hope that Sir........will help me." It was difficult for him to say it. When he finally got it out, Tian Yao still had no reaction. Liu Mu Sheng's hopes sank. He was sure this demon wouldn't take him away.

Sure enough, Tian Yao cast Propelling Wind and soared up into the air. The wind tugged at Liu Mu Sheng's hair and clothes. His head hung low, like he had no more will to live. However at this moment, a large gale blew through and lifted him up.

The scholar's head spun. When he opened his eyes, he was already flying in the sky. The wind buffeted against him as he closely followed behind Tian Yao.

"From today hence, be a good chess piece."

Tian Yao's voice lightly floated back. Liu Mu Sheng heard but didn't reply.

He already said what he wanted to say. Every word came deep from the bottom of his heart. None were false. Except for a few personal things, all was revealed. That was how much Liu Mu Sheng wanted to leave Guang Han Mountain. It was all because of Su Ying. The reason why he really wanted to go to Qing Qiu was because of Yun Xi.

Because Qing Qiu was where she was born and raised. He wanted to see her hometown even though..........Yun Xi was no longer there.

After getting back his heart, Tian Yao's speed was even faster. As he crossed San Chong Mountain, he didn't even think it was worth killing the xian cultivators stationed there. He just directly whistled over the mountain. The cultivators saw him streak past, but none of them could catch up with them. They helplessly watched Tian Yao come from Central Plains and return to Qing Qiu without a scratch.

Right before they landed, Zhu Li got the news they had arrived. Also chasing along with him was the flustered-looking Huan Xiao Yan.

They hadn't gotten close when Huan Xiao Yan started to repeatedly yell: "Master! Master! Are you alright?!"

She was an illusion demon with her ring on Yan Hui's finger. She was the first to sense Yan Hui's aura weaken when Yan Hui received that serious blow. However, Huan Xiao Yan was too far. She didn't know what was happening where Yan Hui was and couldn't go find Yan Hui. She could only frantically run around in circles for the longest time.

Tian Yao carried Yan Hui back to her room and placed her on her bed. The first thing Huan Xiao Yan did was rush over: "You're not going to die, right? You're not going to die, right?"

Huan Xiao Yan was so noisy that Yan Hui woke up and cracked open her eyes: "So noisy. You woke me me." Her voice was rough, but it was much better than before. The dragon scales co, which were turned into a cape, covering her truly did help her wound heal a lot.

Huan Xiao Yan let out a breath: "It's good you're not going to die. An illusion demon's first master dying brings bad lucky. I just left our palace. My happy days are still ahead. I don't want you to die and doom me to an unlucky life." 

When Yan Hui heard that, she felt like something was caught in her chest. This feeling wasn't going to kill her, but it really stifled and hurt her chest.

It was good that at that moment Tian Yao hoisted up Xuan Xiao Yan by the back of her collar and tossed her out of the window without even a look. That helped Yan Hui vent her anger.

Tian Yao slightly peeled back the dragon scale cape and took a look at her wound. He turned to Zhu Li and said: "Call the doctor."

"I did long ago." Zhu Li unhappily said. "I knew that you two could come back covered in wounds! I said that I would come with you two, but then you came up with a way to leave me behind! Really messed up........."

"Find a place for that person." Tian Yao didn't even listen to Zhu Li's words before cutting him off and giving him another job.

Zhu Li grew unhappy at getting cut off. He was just about to berate Tian Yao when he turned to look at the person. Zhu Li frowned: "Why did you bring an ordinary, mortal scholar to Qing Qiu? I already deigned to take care of you two, and now you want me to take care of an ordinary person!" Zhu Li was angry by the end of his words.

Tian Yao shot him a glance and mildly said: "He is Liu Mu Sheng."

Zhu Li laughed at that: "Who is Liu Mu Sheng? Is Liu Mu Sheng worthy enough to serve me? Is Liu........." He paused and turned to look at Liu Mu Sheng. "You are......."

Liu Mu Sheng was quietly standing off to the side and didn't say a single word.

Then Zhu Li looked at him in wide-eyed shock. Zhu Li turned and looked at Tian Yao: "You're certain?"

Tian Yao was pressing down on Yan Hui's wound, using magic to alleviate her pain. He was completely focused on that and didn't reply to Zhu Li. Thus Liu Mu Sheng stepped up and gave a bow to Zhu Li: "I am Liu Mu Sheng."

Zhu Li still looked at him with shock. Zhu Li stayed stunned for a long time until finally sobering up: "Come with me."

Liu Mu Sheng looked blankly and turned to look glance at Tian Yao. Tian Yao didn't even look back to talk to him: "Didn't you want to be Qing Qiu's chess piece? They will help you."

Liu Mu Sheng left with Zhu Li after hearing that.

For a short time, the room was quiet.

Yan Hui closed her eyes and laid down for awhile. After that, she slightly opened her eyes and watched Tian Yao, who was still sitting by her bed and pouring magic into her wound: "My injury is much better. There's no need to use more magic to heal it."

"Just wait until the doctor comes."

Yan Hui quietly looked at Tian Yao for awhile. Then she laughed: "Right now, I'm your benefactor who is finding back your body parts. The treatment is definitely different. In the beginning, you stabbed my heart to get my blood. You didn't even blink an eye. I wouldn't never thought you would heal me after stabbing me."

Yan Hui's words were somewhat mocking. Tian Yao's lower jaw tightened. He slightly pressed his lips together: "Back then, I didn't have enough power. Now........"

"What about now?"

The doctor walked in, so Tian Yao didn't continue the conversation.

Now, he would do all he could to protect her.

Even if the future was rough and filled with storms, he wouldn't let Yan Hui suffer again.
