Chapter 207

Yu Ying pointed at his shoulder and then ripped open the clothes to start checking his injury.

Phoenix Fourteen didn’t expect Yu Ying would suddenly rip off his clothes. Immediately, she blushed. She slightly turned her head and didn’t dare to look at Yu Ying’s shoulder exposed to the air.

Yu Ying glimpsed the swollen injury on his shoulder and bent his brows. Within a few breaths, the injury had deteriorated to this extent. Unexpectedly, the green snake turned out to be so venomous.

He suddenly felt dizzy and then directly collapsed.

“Hey…” Although Phoenix Fourteen turned her head, she had been paying attention to Yu Ying. So, as soon as he leaned backward, Phoenix Fourteen instantly caught him.

“Yu Ying…” Phoenix Fourteen patted Yu Ying’s face twice despite the etiquette and said with an anxious look, “Wake up… Wake up…”

In a daze, Yu Ying heard someone call him and opened his eyes with difficulty to see an anxious face.

Seeing that Yu Ying woke up, Phoenix Fourteen said with a delighted expression, “You’re awake. Are you alright?”

While speaking, Phoenix Fourteen helped Yu Ying up.

Yu Ying shook his head and wanted to say something but he couldn’t make any sound.

Phoenix Fourteen glimpsed the dark purple injury on Yu Ying’s shoulder and knitted her eyebrows. A shimmer of struggle crossed her big eyes. She clenched her fists, loosened them and then clenched again. After repeating for several times, she stared at Yu Ying and said with an apologetic look, “I’m sorry. No offense.”

Yu Ying heard that and blinked. He became even more confused. Before he figured out what Phoenix Fourteen meant, he felt that the soft lips were pressed on his shoulder.

For the moment, Yu Ying’s mind went blank. He gazed at the woman who was sucking the poisonous blood from the injury on her knees. A mixture of feelings swept through his body. He could hardly tell how he felt for her. All he knew was that he hadn’t felt this way before.

Currently, Phoenix Fourteen didn’t feel Yu Ying’s abnormal reaction. She had no evil thoughts and only wanted to suck all the poisonous blood quickly.

As Phoenix Fourteen spat more and more poisonous blood, Yu Ying became gradually sober and his vision didn’t blur anymore. Staring at Phoenix Fourteen’s face at a close distance and smelling her unique fragrance, Yu Ying felt thrilled with a rapid heartbeat.

Seeing that Yu Ying’s dark purple injury gradually became purplish red, Phoenix Fourteen was ecstatic and worked harder to suck the poisonous blood.

Phoenix Fourteen spat out the last mouthful of poisonous blood and then wiped her lips with her sleeve, saying with a smile, “You’re fine now.”

Phoenix Fourteen looked at Yu Ying and happened to stare into his profound eyes. For the moment, they stared at each other quietly.

A while later, Phoenix Fourteen looked away in a tizzy and flattened Yu Ying’s clothes, “Rest… Rest assured… I have night blindness… I saw nothing just now…”

No sooner had Phoenix Fourteen said that than she regretted it. How could she say that? This was too irresponsible. Although she had night blindness, she did see his body clearly. Apart from seeing his body, she also sucked the poisonous blood from his injury. It was an urgent action but they still had physical contact.

Yu Ying didn’t think much. Upon hearing that she had night blindness, he subconsciously knitted his eyebrows.

Phoenix Fourteen frowned and bit her lips. After struggling for a while, she stared at Yu Ying and said seriously, “If… If you don’t mind, I… I will be responsible for you.”

After saying that, Phoenix Fourteen blushed again. This time, she didn’t look away. She was shy indeed but she still gazed at Yu Ying seriously and waited for his answer.

Yu Ying’s mouth twitched. To be responsible for him? What did she mean? He should be the one responsible for her. Staring at her big eyes, Yu Ying nodded somehow.

“OK.” In the end, that was all he said.

Hearing that Yu Ying had agreed, Phoenix Fourteen blushed even more and let out a sigh. Somehow, she was afraid that he would reject her. Thankfully, he said okay.

After they stayed quiet for a while, Phoenix Fourteen looked at Yu Ying and said, “Let’s go back!”

Yu Ying nodded and stood up.

Phoenix Fourteen also stood up. Perhaps because she squatted for too long and rose too abruptly or had taken in some poisonous blood more or less, she just blacked out and stumbled.

Yu Ying quickly held Phoenix Fourteen into his arms and asked anxiously, “Are you poisoned too?”

Staring at Phoenix Fourteen’s pale face, Yu Ying felt a bit self-condemned. He should have stopped her. How could he let her suck the poisonous blood from his injury?

Phoenix Fourteen felt leaned against Yu Ying’s arms and blushed again. After stabilizing herself, she moved two steps aside and freed herself from Yu Ying’s arms.

Noticing that Yu Ying was self-condemned, Phoenix Fourteen puckered her lips and said with a smile, “I’m fine. Maybe I just squatted for too long.”

Just in case Yu Ying wouldn’t believe her, she turned around in a hurry and said, “It’s late. Let’s go back now!”

Then, Phoenix Fourteen walked directly forward. Although she was going forward, she was listening keenly. When she heard someone move simultaneously, Phoenix Fourteen let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing Phoenix Fourteen who was looking at the ground ahead, Yu Ying was swayed and subconsciously quickened his pace and ran forward to hold her hand.

Phoenix Fourteen gazed at their hands in a daze and forgot to walk forward for the moment.

Yu Ying gazed at Phoenix Fourteen’s silly face and cracked a happy smile, “Don’t you have night blindness? I’ll lead you.”

Phoenix Fourteen’s heart was flipped and her eyes slightly glittered. The feeling of being protected made her feel warm. Although she had no objection to her hand being held by him, Phoenix Fourteen still freed herself from Yu Ying’s hand.

“I… I can walk myself…” Before she finished talking, Phoenix Fourteen blushed again.

Today, so far, she had blushed so many times. Suddenly, she kind of hated herself blushing so much. Her hand was merely held by a man. Yu Ying was not shy. As a woman, why was she so bashful? Despite thinking that way, she still couldn’t help flushing in Yu Ying’s presence.

Yu Ying looked at the bashful face of Phoenix Fourteen and slightly curled his lips. A shimmer of teasing crossed his profound eyes. He held Phoenix Fourteen’s hand again, “I’ve been yours now. What are you afraid of?”

After saying that, Yu Ying subconsciously smiled. Regardless of Phoenix Fourteen’s expression, he held her hand and walked forward.

What Yu Ying said did flip Phoenix Fourteen’s heart. She didn’t come to her senses until Yu Ying took her to the resting place. Phoenix Fourteen shook off Yu Ying’s hand in a flurry again.

As she shook off his hand, Yu Ying felt a bit frustrated but didn’t hold her hand again.

They returned to the resting place in tandem. The others weren’t surprised but relieved after seeing them. Unlike the other places, the jungle was full of dangers and even more dangerous than Spiritual Beast Forest. The two of them acted alone at night. Of course the others would be worried.

When she saw them come back, Duanmu Xi let out a sigh of relief. She knew that Yu Ying must have gone to send out a message and that Fourteen must have gone to keep watch on Yu Ying. Although she acquiesced in Yu Ying’s sending messages to Snow, she wouldn’t stop Fourteen from monitoring Yu Ying. Fourteen was straightforward and loyal. Duanmu Xi didn’t want to dampen her loyalty. Besides, with Fourteen to monitor Yu Ying, he wouldn’t realize that she deliberately allowed him to send out messages.

Upon returning to the resting place, Yu Ying asked Situ Kong for an Alexipharmic Pill.

After obtaining an Alexipharmic Pill, Yu Ying didn’t eat it. Instead, he walked to Phoenix Fourteen and put it in her hand.

Staring at the Alexipharmic Pill in her hand, Phoenix Fourteen frowned, “I’m not poisoned. You should be the one taking the Alexipharmic Pill.”

Then, she put the Alexipharmic Pill back in Yu Ying’s hand.

Yu Ying stared at Phoenix Fourteen and frowned, “If you’re not poisoned, why did you faint just now?”

He didn’t believe the excuse of squatting for too long. Besides, even if she wasn’t poisoned, there wouldn’t be any side effects when she ate the Alexipharmic Pill.

“I…” As soon as Phoenix Fourteen opened her mouth, Yu Ying put the Alexipharmic Pill into her mouth.

Phoenix Fourteen felt bitterness in her mouth but deep in her heart, she felt jubilantly happy.

Staring at Yu Ying’s smiling face, Phoenix Fourteen stood up resignedly and walked to Situ Kong for an Alexipharmic Pill.

“Here you are.” Phoenix Fourteen walked to Yu Ying, bent down and held out her hand.

Yu Ying was dazzled by Phoenix Fourteen’s fair hand and directly blurted out, “Feed me.”

Phoenix Fourteen blushed uncontrollably again. This time, even her earlobes had turned red. She rolled her big eyes. After struggling for a while, she was still not brave enough to do that. In the end, she only grabbed Yu Ying’s hand and put the Alexipharmic Pill in his palm, “Eat it yourself.”

After saying that, Phoenix Fourteen didn’t dare to look at Yu Ying. She directly ran back to her seat and closed her eyes.

Watching Phoenix Fourteen going away in a fluster, Yu Ying slightly curled his lips, took a glance at the Alexipharmic Pill in his palm and directly put it into his mouth.

Duanmu Xi watched their interaction, her dark purple eyes glistening with smiles. There seemed to be something going on between Yu Ying and Fourteen… This was a good thing!

Duanmu Xi leaned against a tree and wanted to look at the moon and stars in the sky. However, as she raised her head, she only saw towering trees. She couldn’t see the sky but the shadows of the trees under the moonlight.

She turned to look at the bonfire in front. Xuanyuan Mo’s face slowly appeared in the red flame.

“Snow…” Duanmu Xi reached out her hand towards the illusion but instantly, the illusion disappeared.

The man she missed vanished from the red fire. Duanmu Xi cracked a bitter smile and stroked her belly, murmuring, “Babies, I miss your father. When can I meet him again?”

She looked at the trees again, her dark purple eyes full of affection. She missed Snow.
