One finger flattens you

Su Lang didn't feel much heartache over the loss of tens of thousands of Treasure-Hunting Flying Squirrels.

Anyway, the cooldown time for these Treasure-Hunting Flying Squirrels was only two hours, and they would soon be revived.

Meanwhile, he had already obtained a large amount of new intelligence about the Wuyang Demonic Cave.

“It's always been that one-star Martial Saint making a move.”

“It seems that Martial Saint Wuyang should still be in seclusion cultivating, or preparing for the day of the sun and moon's alignment. I just saw a few women being escorted to the dungeon…”

“With my current strength, once I break through my cultivation realm and use the trump card of the Devouring Clone, I can definitely reach the Saint rank!”

“Adding the Saint artifact, the You Tian Sword, even if I can't directly defeat Martial Saint Wuyang and Martial Saint Yang Xu, I will still be able to rescue Ji Ruxue and Murong Xianxian.”

Thinking of this, Su Lang turned to look at Chu Xiaobei, “And Chu Xiaobei, I'll have her watch from the side then. If anything unexpected happens, I'll let her make a move.”

Just then.

Chu Xiaobei suddenly opened her eyes, and two burning, spirited gazes met Su Lang's eyes.

“Uh…”

Su Lang's mouth twitched.

This was too much of a coincidence, she woke up just as he looked at her.

“Hmph!”

“What are you looking at, you big pervert!”

Chu Xiaobei's eyebrows and delicate nose wrinkled slightly, and she shouted fiercely.

“Looking at a great beauty!”

Su Lang didn't bother to explain, instead revealing a wicked, charming smile.

“You lecher!”

Chu Xiaobei's expression froze, and she felt her skin tighten a little.

She had been sitting there, immersed in healing, for five or six days.

During this time.

Could this big pervert Su Lang have been staring at her the whole time?

From top to bottom, from left to right, from front to back!?

Thinking of this, Chu Xiaobei's skin went from tightening to feeling a bit numb, and her face also turned slightly red.

Su Lang shrugged noncommittally: “How are your injuries?”

“Hmph, none of your business!”

Chu Xiaobei first snorted haughtily, then couldn't help but smile, “My injuries are all healed, hehe!”

“Oh, finally healed?”

Su Lang nodded, “Can you now display the strength of a nine-star Martial Saint?”

“Of course!”

“I've now recovered to my peak state!”

Chu Xiaobei's lips curled slightly upwards, “Hmph hmph, Su Lang, you big pervert, I can flatten you with one finger now, so be careful!”

“Holy cow, how ruthless~”

“I refined pills to heal your injuries, and as soon as you're well, you want to flatten me!”

Su Lang said with a bitter smile, raising an eyebrow, “How did I pick up such an ungrateful wretch like you?”

“Hmph!”

“I will repay your life-saving grace!”

“Don't keep calling me an ungrateful wretch all day.”

Chu Xiaobei said this while rolling her eyes, which looked a bit silly in Su Lang's eyes.

“Could it be that this woman's brain injury isn't healed yet?”

Su Lang's gaze towards Chu Xiaobei became a bit strange, “Or… should I examine her body again to make sure her injuries are completely healed?”

“You pervert!”

Chu Xiaobei felt a tingling sensation down her spine from Su Lang's gaze, “Don't look at me like that, you wish!”

“What did I wish for?”

Su Lang's mouth twitched, he just wanted to check her injuries.

“Hmph!”

Chu Xiaobei snorted through clenched teeth, then stopped speaking.

Actually, there was something she didn't say—

—Don't even think I'll repay you by marrying you!

Su Lang raised an eyebrow: “Speaking of which, how do you plan to repay me now?”

“I…”

Chu Xiaobei originally wanted to say that she would repay Su Lang with spirit jade or treasures.

But then she thought about it and felt that doing so wouldn't be good enough.

After all, it was a life-saving grace, and repaying it with some treasures felt insufficient, she couldn't get over it in her heart.

Besides, did Su Lang lack those things? (Su Lang: I do!!!)

So…

“I don't know either…”

Chu Xiaobei gave an awkward smile; she genuinely couldn't think of how she could repay Su Lang for a while.

“Alright!”

“Then tell me when you figure it out.”

“It's been five days, Yan Fa must be getting quite anxious.”

Su Lang rolled his eyes, then said, “We'll deliver the pills to him, and then we can leave here.”

“Okay, let's go then.”

Chu Xiaobei nodded, her face beaming with joy!

“Wait, there's one more thing I haven't done!”

Su Lang's mouth curved into a smile, and he held up a finger.
