I'm Tired (2)

"I need to save Tiger Girl's father..."

"What?! Tiger Girl's father? Tiger Girl, is that your Taiya? Are you going to the Tiger Tribe now?" Li Yue knew about Tiger Girl; she was a celebrity. No one in Soaring Sky Imperial City was unaware of Tiger Girl's existence, and Li Yue was no exception.

"Yes!" Ye Lang nodded.

"What happened to him? Is he in danger?" Li Yue asked, just out of habit. What did Tiger Girl's father have to do with her? She wasn't the kind of person who would care about everyone.

"There's no danger. I've already frozen him with Ice Soul. He'll be fine for the next ten months," Ye Lang said.

"Oh, that's good! Since you're doing this to save someone, I'll lend you the Heavenly Mechanism Armor. If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have caused so much trouble," Li Yue said somewhat wistfully.

If she doesn't cause trouble, then all the things that happened between them must have happened. And is she willing to give up this?

Li Yue wasn't sure, and she didn't dare to face these questions because the thought of them filled her with fear, as if she were afraid of losing something.

Perhaps, she didn't want to lose this memory...

"If I had known you were so easy to talk to, I would have just secretly come to you." Ye Lang also regretted it a little, regretting that all the things he had done seemed to have been in vain.

"I'm not good at talking, so do you think I'm hard to get along with?" Li Yue asked with a smile, but behind her smile seemed to be something terrible. If Ye Lang's answer didn't satisfy her, then that terrible thing would appear.

"Yeah, you used to be hard to get along with. I still remember how you would try to hit or kill me whenever you saw me," Ye Lang said, nodding.

"Uh..." Li Yue was stunned by Ye Lang's words and felt like crying. Could she blame herself for this?

"It's all because of what you did before, insisting that I be your wife, saying I was your destined other half, and that I couldn't get rid of you no matter what I did, so I had to resort to violence..." Li Yue said a little embarrassedly, "If I had known this day would come, I would have done something wrong back then..."

"How is it? Is it any better?" Ye Lang asked curiously.

"No, I want to be even more resolute. I want to scare you so badly that you won't dare to lie to me now!" Li Yue said.

"..." Ye Lang stopped talking. If he continued, it would be his own fault, so he wisely chose to remain silent.

"Why aren't you saying anything? What do we do next?" Li Yue continued to lie on the grass, looking at the moon in the night sky. Her silver eyes seemed to be reflecting the moon. If Ye Lang looked into her eyes at this moment, he would definitely be attracted.

However, Ye Lang didn't look at it. He simply said, quite obliviously, "Didn't I just say that if you give me the Heavenly Mechanism Armor, you can go back?"

"..." Li Yue turned around, ignoring Ye Lang.

"Hey, Li Yue, what do you mean? Say something..." Ye Lang was a little confused when he saw Li Yue like this, so he wanted to find out what Li Yue meant.

"I'm tired! Let's talk about it tomorrow..." Li Yue said.

"Tired? Are you a pig? You just woke up, all you do is eat and sleep..." Ye Lang said with some doubt.

"..."

If you're not going to talk, I'm not going to talk. I'm ignoring you!

Goodnight!

Ye Lang thought Li Yue was really tired, so he used Alchemy Array to isolate the area, making it impossible for outsiders to see inside. This also drove away snakes, insects, and rodents, keeping the grassland undisturbed. It was a kind of alternative tent.

Soon, Ye Lang fell asleep and went to chat with Xuan Yuanbing. He was exhausted after a long day, having carried Li Yue for nearly a thousand miles. If it weren't for his profound Internal Energy, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on.

However, running all this way was not without its benefits for him. He did gain something, which improved his Inner Energy cultivation. This kind of long-distance running is actually a way of cultivating qi.

After Ye Lang fell asleep, Li Yue gripped the grass tightly. She really wanted to kick Ye Lang. She had been sleeping all day, so it was naturally not easy for her to fall asleep again.

Even so, she didn't get up, and eventually drifted off to sleep after an unknown amount of time.

And so, the night passed without further incident...

As dawn broke and the sky began to lighten, Ye Lang and Li Yue lay together on the grassland, embracing each other...

Wait a minute? Hugging each other?

"Ah?!"

Li Yue screamed and pushed Ye Lang away forcefully, a reaction any girl would make!

When Li Yue woke up, she found herself holding a very warm body, and this warmth made her feel very comfortable.

However, when she realized the problem, she opened her eyes and saw that she was holding Ye Lang and resting her head on Ye Lang's chest. Her face immediately turned red, and then she had the same reaction as before.

As a result, Ye Lang was pushed by Li Yue and began to roll several times on the grass before crashing into the edge of the Alchemy Array, which had a certain defensive capability.

"Bump!"

"Ah..."

Ye Lang crashed into the defensive layer of the Alchemy Array, letting out a scream—a scream of pain, completely different from Li Yue's earlier scream.

"..." Li Yue tried to suppress her laughter when she saw Ye Lang's expression, but she didn't. She was still angry that Ye Lang had taken advantage of her while she was sleeping.

However, Li Yue soon discovered that Ye Lang seemed to always be sleeping in the same spot, while her previous sleeping spot seemed to be in a different place.

This means that...

"Was it me who came over and hugged him?" Li Yue's face flushed red at the thought.

Actually, this can't be blamed on Li Yue. It was a very natural reaction. It was a bit cold on the grassland at night, and the campfire was out at that time. So, in her sleep, Li Yue naturally went towards Ye Lang, who was the source of heat.

At this moment, besides feeling secretly shy, Li Yue also felt a little strange. She felt that the heat emanating from Ye Lang's body seemed particularly comfortable, as if it was more than just body temperature.

However, this was also a bit strange. She wondered if it was just her imagination, mistaking his body temperature for something special!

"Huh, it's dawn already? How did I end up here?" Ye Lang sat up, puzzled. "Oh well, probably just a cramp..."

"Yeah, you're having a cramp!" Li Yue thought to herself, relieved that Ye Lang hadn't noticed.

"Wash your face and brush your teeth!" Ye Lang purified his entire body with an Alchemy Array, and then used alchemy to condense a little water to moisten his face and mouth. These things, which originally required some effort and water resources, were completed so simply.

In times like these, alchemy becomes incredibly convenient!
