After quickly reaching the cave, Xiao Kun hurriedly spread a layer of brocade cloth on the ground and gently laid Yun Yun upon it.

Only then did Xiao Kun have a little time to closely examine the woman he had dreamed of even in his previous life.

Upon closer inspection, she truly possessed a breathtaking beauty.

Even "features like a painting" and "skin of ice, bones of jade" seemed inadequate to describe her beauty.

Especially the faint dignity and nobility between her brows, which added another measure to her charm.

But now was not the time to think about such things. Xiao Kun came back to his senses, looked at the horrifying wound on Yun Yun's chest, and took several bottles of topical healing and pain-relieving medicine from his Storage Ring.

Just as he slowly moved closer, preparing to lift Yun Yun's outer robe to inspect the wound and apply medicine—

Yun Yun, who had been asleep, seemed to sense something. She suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Xiao Kun with a gaze filled with coldness and embarrassment, apparently misunderstanding his actions.

Seeing this, Xiao Kun quickly raised both hands and explained, "You're awake! I only saw that you were unconscious, and your injuries were serious, so I wanted to treat you. Don't misunderstand! Since you're awake now, do it yourself!"

Seeing Xiao Kun's expression and actions, the chill in Yun Yun's eyes lessened somewhat. Just as she intended to apply the medicine herself, she realized that her entire body was numb and she could not move.

Xiao Kun handed the medicine to Yun Yun, but strangely, she did not move. He only heard Yun Yun mutter, "Damn it, I was actually hit by its seal."

When Xiao Kun saw that Yun Yun had not moved for a long time, he understood that she could not move. But he did not dare act rashly now.

And so, as both of them fell silent, an increasingly strange atmosphere spread between them.

After struggling in thought for a while amid that strange atmosphere, Yun Yun considered her injuries, took a deep breath, and said as calmly as possible, "You should apply the medicine for me."

Hearing this, Xiao Kun immediately showed a startled expression, though inwardly he was secretly delighted. With an incredulous look, he said, "Really? Then don't say I have to take responsibility afterward, or start shouting that you'll kill me!"

Hearing Xiao Kun's words, Yun Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry. Come to think of it, it had been a long time since anyone had spoken to her like that.

"I'm not that old-fashioned. As long as you can keep your hands and mouth under control, I naturally won't repay kindness with enmity," Yun Yun said softly.

Hearing this, Xiao Kun stepped forward again. He first glanced at Yun Yun's pretty face before lowering his gaze to her injured chest.

After giving a dry cough, he stretched out his hand and gently lifted the clothing over her chest.

After lifting the outer garment, he discovered that beneath it was a pale-blue metal inner armor. A flowing sheen like rippling water moved across it, making it clear at a glance that it was no ordinary item.

There were five deep claw marks on the inner armor, with blood still seeping out from them.

Looking at the inner armor, Xiao Kun realized that if not for this sturdy armor, Yun Yun's upper body would have been torn apart by the Amethyst Winged Lion King's claw strike.

"Cough... um, the wounds should be beneath the inner armor. If I want to treat them, it seems I'll have to remove this armor!" Looking at the pale-blue inner armor that tightly wrapped her perfect body, Xiao Kun suddenly turned his gaze toward Yun Yun, whose face had already flushed crimson, and said awkwardly.

Hearing Xiao Kun's words, Yun Yun's body visibly trembled. She then slowly closed her beautiful eyes, took a deep breath, and said in an almost trembling yet calm voice, "Undo it. Please."

Seeing Yun Yun be so decisive, Xiao Kun could not help but admire her. He swallowed, slowly helped Yun Yun sit up cross-legged, then sat cross-legged behind her.

Looking at the alluring curve of Yun Yun's back, Xiao Kun's hands began to tremble slightly as he slowly removed her upper garment.

As he moved her clothing, Xiao Kun's fingers occasionally brushed Yun Yun's skin, and each time, he could feel her body suddenly stiffen.

It seemed Yun Yun was not so composed when it came to contact between men and women either.

After lowering Yun Yun's clothes to her slender waist, Xiao Kun turned his attention to the clasps of the inner armor and carefully undid them one by one.

He slowly removed the inner armor. Although Xiao Kun had been extremely careful, he still accidentally touched her wound, making Yun Yun's delicate body tremble in pain as she drew several sharp breaths.

With the inner armor removed, Yun Yun's upper body was now practically bare before Xiao Kun's eyes, though he could only see her back.

Exposing her upper body before an unfamiliar man, Yun Yun's snowy-white body could not help but turn pink.

"Keep your hands and eyes in check!" Yun Yun warned again.

That warning immediately made Xiao Kun put away his messy thoughts. He directly took a large black robe from his Storage Ring and draped it over Yun Yun.

He then helped her slowly lie down. Xiao Kun once again saw Yun Yun's pretty face and found it covered in a crimson blush. The eyes she used to look at him no longer held wariness or hostility.

It seemed those intimate actions earlier had earned Xiao Kun quite a bit of Yun Yun's favor.

"I'm going to clean the wound now." After warning her, Xiao Kun slowly pulled down the robe, fully exposing the wound.

Once he stopped moving, Xiao Kun discovered that he could now see a small portion of Yun Yun's snowy-white skin and a captivating cleavage.

Taking another deep breath, Xiao Kun took out clean cotton cloth and green medicinal liquid from his Storage Ring. He dipped the cloth into the liquid and began slowly cleaning the bloodstains around the wound.

Watching the serious Xiao Kun, Yun Yun gradually developed a trace of goodwill toward this unfamiliar youth.

After cleaning the wound, Xiao Kun took out a white powder with healing properties and poured it over the wound. Stimulated by it, Yun Yun could not help letting out a soft moan.

"It'll be done soon!" Seeing Yun Yun's pained expression, Xiao Kun could not help comforting her.

He then quickened his pace and gently bandaged the wound with clean gauze.

Naturally, while bandaging it, Xiao Kun saw a few things he should not have seen.

All he could do was silently enjoy the sight, not daring to make a sound.

"All right, it's taken care of! As for your internal injuries, I gave you a pill earlier, so they should heal quickly too. As for the seal, I have no way to deal with it for now. You can only rely on yourself!" Xiao Kun said, patting his hands in relief.

In truth, Xiao Kun had previously obtained a sixth-grade Calamity Breaking Pill through a critical hit, and it should have been able to break this seal.

But once the seal was broken, Yun Yun would recover her strength very quickly, and the time they could spend together would become very short. Xiao Kun had no intention of doing something so unprofitable.

"Thank you." Yun Yun lay quietly on the brocade cloth, then suddenly smiled at Xiao Kun.

That smile was truly peerless.

Especially when that smile combined with her slightly pale face from her injuries, it gave her a pitiful, heart-wrenching charm that made Xiao Kun's heart suddenly tremble!
