Capítulo 55

As Hua Jiuye said, "Stop talking nonsense," she deftly pulled out the part that was embedded in the person's body.

It was truly a bloody mess, yet the man didn't utter a single groan.

All the chains were unlocked, and blood was everywhere. Shen Zhili took out some medicine to treat his wounds. The man touched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm not wearing many clothes... Little girl, don't look at me so seriously, I'll get shy."

Shen Zhili: "..." Ignored.

This person... really doesn't seem like Hana Jiuye's father, more like... that guy...

That guy...

"Know detachment!"

Shen Zhili stopped what she was doing and listened intently.

Uh, was that just a hallucination?

Never mind, let's keep going.

"Zhi Li, Zhi Li! Where are you?"

Shen Zhili: "..." It really seems to be that idiot.

Before she could finish thinking, the dungeon door was kicked open, and Su Chenche strode in, heading straight for Shen Zhili. He grabbed Shen Zhili's shoulders with both hands, looked her up and down, and after confirming that she was safe and sound, he hugged her tightly.

Shen Zhili: "...Let go."

Su Chenche's voice was aggrieved: "I looked for you for a long time but couldn't find you. I was so worried..."

This guy has a knack for making you want to kick him in every way possible.

Shen Zhili: "...Let me go first."

Su Chenche pleaded, "I won't let go. It feels so good to hold you. Let me hold you a little longer."

Shen Zhili gritted her teeth: "...In public..."

Su Chenche released her shoulder and looked at her seriously: "So it's okay if we don't do it in public?"

Shen Zhili: "..."

The surroundings were deathly silent, then a burst of laughter erupted.

Everyone looked toward the source of the sound.

The one lying on the ground, who had just been rescued, looked so miserable that he was unrecognizable... The uncle couldn't help but point at Su Chenche and laugh loudly: "Hahaha, young man, I like you. Interested in being my son?"

Su Chenche: "..." What's this guy's background?

At this awkward moment, two people walked in, making the situation even more awkward.

Ye Qianqian kicked the rickety dungeon door away and squinted her eyes, saying, "It really is here."

Lei Ying walked straight down, glanced at Su Chenche, and then at Shen Zhili.

Finally, he reached out to Shen Zhili, saying expressionlessly, "Is this the Divine Physician Shen? I've long admired your name. I am the commander of the Twelve Nights Dark Division, and my name is Lei Ying."

Chapter 46

Before Shen Zhili could even react, a fight had already broken out on the other side.

The moment Ye Qianqian kicked open the door, the little flower that was coiled up next to Hua Jiuye had already swum over and bit Su Chenche hard on the back.

Su Chenche quickly pinched his tongue, but Hua Jiuye kicked him, and Su Chenche dodged to the side...

Hua Jiuye narrowed his eyes and directly used the black iron chain he had just removed to attack.

Su Chenche parried with his sword, a sharp glint flashing in his light amber pupils.

Shen Zhili rubbed her forehead, genuinely not wanting to get involved with these two, but...

"Su Chenche, stop... Senior brother's injuries haven't healed yet."

Amidst her busy schedule, Su Chenche pouted, "Zhi Li... why did I stop first?"

Hua Jiuye pouted: "Even if my injuries haven't healed, I can still beat you up."

Upon seeing this, Qingxing and Zhaifeng, who followed them in, both cast sympathetic glances at Hua Jiuye.

The middle-aged man lying on the ground was very happy, as if he wanted to stir up trouble: "Young man, you have such spirit, I envy you."

Shen Zhili turned her head: "Uncle, you are extremely weak right now, you should rest for a while..."

As he spoke, he inserted a silver needle. The uncle grumbled for a moment, then leaned against the wall and fell asleep.

Even at his peak, Hua Jiuye might not be a match for Su Chenche now, and he was even less of a match for him when he was injured. Before long, he was at a disadvantage. Hua Jiuye's narrow eyes darkened, and he was about to take something out of his pocket to use a dirty trick when a black figure quickly joined the battle. The two-on-one battle situation immediately changed.

Hua Jiuye: "..." Where did this thing come from? How come it's even more ruthless than me? Does he have a grudge against this guy surnamed Su?

Raikage said expressionlessly, "...If you're not going to contribute, then don't get in the way."

Hua Jiuye touched his iron flute, withdrew from the battle, crossed his arms, and a half-smile played on his lips: "You two continue." Let's see them both suffer heavy losses...

After checking Hua Jiuye up and down, Shen Zhili frowned: "Your wound hasn't reopened, has it?"

Hua Jiuye's expression softened unconsciously. He shook his head slightly, then suddenly broke into a mischievous smile: "Junior sister, aren't you worried about him?"

Shen Zhili: "Who are you worried about..."

Hua Jiuye raised her chin to indicate that Su Chenche was constantly swinging his sword, destroying most of the dungeon.

Shen Zhili shook her head decisively.

...She still vividly remembers the scene of Su Chenche abusing the King of Southern Xinjiang. She worries about Su Chenche, thinking he's just being nosy!

Hua Jiuye picked up Xiaohua and gently stroked its scales: "Junior sister, let's go."

At the same time.

As Raikage unleashed his ultimate attack, he shouted, "Azure Phoenix!"

Qingxing said miserably, "This isn't a good idea."

Zhai Feng chuckled awkwardly, "Commander Lei, these kinds of high-level matters are none of our business..."

Lei Ying didn't even listen and directly asked, "Are you going to go or not?" His cold tone sent shivers down one's spine.

Thus, one-on-one became three-on-one.

Su Chenche parried the attack and smiled gently: "Qingxing, Zhai Feng, Your Majesty has remembered!"

Qingxing and Zhai Feng both felt a chill run down their spines, and their hands gripping their weapons trembled at the same time.

Just then, a cold, hard female voice suddenly rang out: "Get out of the way."

A murderous aura swept over, seemingly smothering the light within the dungeon.

Qingxing and Zhai Feng realized something was wrong and fled in a sorry state, while Lei Ying raised his lips and leaped backward.

Ye Qianqian, dressed in a seductive red dress, moved her cheeks twice, picked up the nine-ringed broadsword in her hand, and leaped high into the air with unstoppable force, slashing fiercely at Su Chenche in the center.

Su Chenche easily dodged to the side, and Ye Qianqian twisted her wrist, slashing the knife towards Shen Zhili.

Shen Zhili was stunned, but the knife came too fast, leaving her no time to react.

Then, she felt her body lighten as she was embraced and thrown heavily to one side.

Shen Zhili got up, made sure Hua Jiuye was alright before turning to glare angrily at Ye Qianqian.

Then……

Then…………

Huh... why is Su Chenche lying on the ground?

Qingxing cautiously approached Su Chenche, her face filled with grief and despair: "My lord... this... this can't be..."

Ye Qianqian spat out the sugarcane in her mouth, held the knife to her shoulder, and showed a tired expression on her beautiful face: "He's not dead. I used the back of the knife."

Zhai Feng also walked over and poked Su Chenche's motionless body: "This, how are we going to take him back..." He looked up, "...Qingxing, you carry him..."

Ye Qianqian sheathed the knife behind her and said, "What's the trouble?"

She bent down, grabbed Su Chenche by the collar, and dragged him out regardless of the obstacles in her path. When she passed Shen Zhili, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Mind if I take him with me?"

Shen Zhili seemed to awaken from a dream...

I suddenly feel so sorry for Su Chenche, what should I do... Did he always live like this before?

After regaining her composure, Shen Zhili realized she should be angry and snapped, "What you just did..."

Ye Qianqian looked like she found it troublesome, but still frowned and explained, "I didn't mean to cut you."... Her goal from beginning to end was to cut Su Chenche.

"I'll leave if you have no objections."

Before Shen Zhili could react, he grabbed Su Chenche by the collar and rode away.

Shen Zhili "..."

Is this some kind of arrogant act?

Although she has no relationship with Su Chenche now, and it seems they've known each other longer than she has, Ye Qianqian politely asked her if she agreed, but...

Why do I suddenly feel like I've been relegated to a supporting role...?

...Never mind, Su Chenche shouldn't die anytime soon. She should help her senior brother up first and then go check on him.

On the other side, Qingxing and Zhai Feng also looked over with longing eyes.

Qingxing pondered: "Back then, the Demoness Ye wasn't quite this... ruthless."

Zhai Feng stroked her chin, looking at Lei Ying with a gossipy expression: "Commander Lei, how exactly did you and Ye the Witch get together? How did you... how did you become acquainted?"

Surprisingly, the Raikage answered.

Lei Ying said in a tone that sounded like "the weather is nice today," "We discussed more than seven hundred ways to torture Su Chenche to the point of wishing he were dead."

Qingxing: "..." More than seven hundred kinds...

Zhai Feng: "..." Is this a shared hobby...?

Shen Zhili helped Hua Jiuye up.

Hua Jiuye really didn't seem to be in any danger—perhaps because he had been injured so many times that he didn't feel this minor injury anymore. He licked his lips and called out, "Junior Sister."

Shen Zhili: "What is it?"

Hua Jiuye hugged Xiaohua and said, "Why do I always have this urge to kill everyone I see every now and then?"
