Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss Chapter 468 - Mysterious Young Maiden

Chapter 468: Mysterious Young Maiden

Ling Chuxi pierced a few gold needles into Jiang Wuhen’s back to release the blood clots that had formed and then sprinkled on some medicinal powder.

Jiang Wuhen felt a wave of coldness on his back and the waves of pain and stagnation in his internal organs felt much better. He knew that Ling Chuxi was helping him by providing treatment.

“It seems like I thought too much,” said Jiang Wuhen with an awkward smile.

Ling Chuxi ignored him and continued to pierce needle after needle into his skin. Slowly, the deep brown palm print on Jiang Wuhen’s back changed into a fresher redder color. And then, as the blood clots slowly dispersed, the palm print also became that much lighter.

“Done. Consider yourself lucky,” said Ling Chuxi as she started to put away her needles. After this treatment of Golden Needles Soothing the Meridians, Jiang Wuhen did not need long to recover to his usual state and the effects of the palm attack would not result in any hidden diseases either.

“Why did you save me?” Jiang Wuhen asked, trying to sound casual. He could tell that Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen did not have much positive feelings towards him. They could have totally left him behind and escaped on their own earlier on. There was no need to carry along a burden like him in such a situation. Furthermore, Elder Qiu’s appearance already proved that his words were not lies and that this small path indeed led to Rejuvenation Valley therefore they didn’t need him to lead the way anymore. They had no need to save him.

“Although you’re a little hateful, but no matter what, you are still a companion. I don’t wish to see you die before my eyes,” replied Ling Chuxi nonchalantly.

“Companion?” Jiang Wuhen was stunned as he muttered this word to himself repeatedly. His expression turned complicated, it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

Ling Chuxi did not pay further mind to him as she seized the limited time she had to rest. After resting for a bit, she ate some food and the few of them continued walking along the small path.

…

At the same time, on a lone peak rising from the ground, a young maiden stood facing the wind. Her long white skirt danced in the wind and it was as if her graceful and agile figure was a part of the clouds. Even though she was right in front of one’s eyes, she gave off a feeling of ethereal nothingness. The girl had a beautiful face and an elegant temperament with looks as cold as an otherworldly fairy, making one feel that she could only be admired from a distance and couldn’t bear to have the slightest bit of l.u.s.tful desire for her.

Four youthful young maidens stood beside her dutifully, each one with appearances that could topple countries and cities, but despite this, their beauty was eclipsed by that of the young maiden in the white dress, making them look dull and lacking in color in comparison, just like stars appearing dull and dim because they surround a bright moon.

Elder Qiu and the few others stood at the foot of the lone peak, trembling. They lowered their heads and their eyes flickered as they did, neither one daring to look the young maiden in the eyes. Elder Qiu’s wound was already bandaged, but vague traces of blood still remained visible on his garments.

“Who was it?” asked the young maiden. Her voice was like the flow of a small stream, like an echo in an empty valley, refres.h.i.+ng and pleasing to the ear, yet so distant and proud.

“I don’t know. It was a group consisting of two men and a girl. The girl and one of the men both possessed cultivation in the realm of Great Fulfilment. I’m afraid they are reinforcements sent by Resurrection Hall,” answered Elder Qiu in a trembling voice. He was full of awe and fear when facing the young maiden before him.

“Huh.” The young maiden responded indifferently as she continued to look at a range of mountains in the distance. At this moment, it was as though all the grand mountains and cliffs around them were all mere subjects beneath her feet.

“Miss, please be rest a.s.sured. I have already used the Nether Blood Ants. They will definitely not be able to arrive at Rejuvenation Valley,” added Elder Qiu hurriedly. His body was ice cold, but dense beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

“Go, then.” It was as if the young maiden did not hear what Elder Qiu said as she gently waved her sleeves to send him and his men away.

“Yes, yes. Miss, please be rest a.s.sured. This time we definitely will not disappoint Miss,” said Elder Qiu, feeling relieved as he bowed and retreated.

He retreated to the point where he could no longer see the young maiden before plopping his b.u.t.t onto the ground. His feet felt like they were filled with lead and his whole body also felt as if he had just been dragged out of water.
