A Life Saved

For everyone else, the girl's injuries would have been utterly beyond help.

But as the owner of Origin Mall, Luo Chuan could naturally resolve such matters with ease.

He took a bottle of Cola from the glass display case downstairs and had the girl drink it.

It had to be said, the Cola provided by the system was truly something else.

Visible to the naked eye, the girl's mangled, bloody wounds returned to normal within just a few breaths, without leaving even the slightest scar.

Her fractured bones mended themselves under the pull of her muscles, even letting out crisp cracking sounds.

The tightly furrowed brows of the girl had already relaxed. Presumably, the pain in her body had disappeared.

However, the girl had yet to awaken. That was because her life force was depleted.

Had it been a few days ago, Luo Chuan would probably have been at a complete loss in such a situation.

But just earlier, he had drawn Jade Dew.

What was the effect of Jade Dew?

Wasn't it meant to replenish life force?

Luo Chuan could not help but wonder whether the system had long anticipated that he would save a girl lacking life force tonight, which was why it had let him draw Jade Dew.

After a cup of Jade Dew went down her throat, a storm formed from life force instantly appeared around the girl.

Her cheeks also became rosy, making her look incomparably beautiful.

Just as Luo Chuan was about to have the girl drink a second cup of Jade Dew, her brows trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

A pair of purple eyes appeared before Luo Chuan.

Purple hair and purple eyes—no matter how he looked at it, something felt off.

But who was Luo Chuan?

In his previous life, he had been a bona fide Blue Star native!

As a university student in his former life, Luo Chuan had some knowledge of anime conventions and anime series.

To him, the girl before him was merely a little unusual.

Luo Chuan and the girl looked at each other.

For a time, neither spoke.

Luo Chuan felt somewhat conflicted. What should he say?

I'm actually a shop owner. While idly watching the rain, I saw you fall from the sky, so I casually saved you?

Didn't that sound deeply, profoundly out of place no matter how he put it?

Little did he know that Yao Ziyan's heart was also being battered by wave after wave of shock.

The attack she had launched with her Demon Core earlier had been intended to take both sides down together. Nearly all the life force in her body had been exhausted!

But what about now?

Not only had her injuries healed, even the life force she had lost had somehow been restored?!

Moreover, when Yao Ziyan's gaze fell upon the Jade Dew in Luo Chuan's hand, the astonishment in her eyes was impossible to conceal.

With life force this rich, perhaps not even the Spring of Life of the Royal Family of Beasts could compare?

Clearly, it was this mysterious man before her who had healed her.

Compared to humans, most beasts had straightforward temperaments. Calling them people who lived freely and settled grudges on the spot would not be an exaggeration.

"Thank you, sir, for saving my life."

Yao Ziyan took a deep breath and spoke solemnly.

After saying that, Yao Ziyan felt somewhat lost.

Naturally, she wanted to repay Luo Chuan's kindness. But although her injuries had healed and her life force had returned, her cultivation was still damaged. She had no idea how long it would take to return to the realm of a Venerable. Furthermore, she did not know whether that demon monk Wuxiang would pursue her again.

And now, the Demon Race was too busy to care for itself because of the ancient ruin's emergence. She could be said to be completely alone and without support.

However, Luo Chuan did not care about any of that.

He nodded. "No problem. You happened to fall here from the sky, so I saved you."

After thinking for a moment, Luo Chuan added, "Let me introduce myself. I'm the owner of this shop, Luo Chuan. You can just call me Boss Luo."

After hesitating slightly, Yao Ziyan said, "My name is Yao Ziyan."

It seemed that neither of them was particularly talkative. For a time, the atmosphere became awkward.
