From Now On, You Are This King's Person

"Xiao Yi Xian, as long as you hand over the treasure you obtained in the cave and tell me Xiao Yan's whereabouts."

"Not only will I spare your life, but I'll also take you as my concubine."

Looking at the surrounded Xiao Yi Xian, Mu Li's face turned cold as he shouted loudly.

"Wishful thinking!"

Upon hearing Mu Li's words, a flicker of disgust flashed through Xiao Yi Xian's eyes.

She naturally knew Mu Li's character very well.

If she fell into his hands, even if she managed to stay alive, she would become his plaything.

Therefore, even if she had to die, Xiao Yi Xian was unwilling to fall into his hands.

She turned to look at the Blue Eagle, which was currently weakened, her eyes filled with guilt.

Her death was one thing, but she had dragged the Blue Eagle into this. Xiao Yi Xian's heart was filled with self-reproach.

Given her understanding of Mu Li, even if she handed over the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, he probably would not spare the Blue Eagle.

Eradicating the roots was something the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had always enjoyed doing.

"Hmph!"

"You don't know what's good for you!"

Seeing that Xiao Yi Xian still dared to refuse him even at this point, Mu Li's eyes gleamed with a cold light. Looking at Xiao Yi Xian lying atop the Giant Blue Eagle, a sneer appeared on his lips.

"Since you care so much about this beast, then I'll kill it!"

"Men, shoot!"

With a casual wave of Mu Li's hand, the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group immediately raised their bows and aimed at the heavily injured Blue Eagle, which no longer had the strength to fly.

"No!"

At the sight of this, Xiao Yi Xian's expression changed abruptly. She spread her arms and stood in front of the Blue Eagle.

But with her petite frame, how could she possibly shield the enormous Giant Blue Eagle?

"Fire!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Mu Li gave the command coldly, and in an instant, a dense rain of arrows swept toward the Giant Blue Eagle.

"No!"

Despair filled Xiao Yi Xian's eyes. She slowly closed them, waiting for death to descend.

Just as dozens of sharp arrows were about to strike the Giant Blue Eagle, a violet light suddenly descended, transforming into a violet shield that enveloped Xiao Yi Xian and the Giant Blue Eagle.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

As all the arrows struck the violet shield, harsh collisions rang out. The arrows could not budge the shield in the slightest and were all blocked outside.

"What?"

Seeing this, Mu Li's eyes widened as he stared in shock at the figure standing before the violet shield.

The figure was a middle-aged man dressed in a violet robe. His features were stern and imposing, his figure tall and slender, and an extremely terrifying aura emanated from his entire body.

This middle-aged man was none other than Lu Chuan, who had left the Monster Beast Mountain Range and arrived in Qingshan Town.

"Y-you... who are you?"

Mu Li stared blankly at Lu Chuan, his mind going blank.

"You unfilial brat, kneel and apologize to Senior at once!"

Mu She, who had arrived just in time to witness the scene, was filled with panic. He kicked Mu Li in the leg, his eyes fixed on Lu Chuan in fear.

"Senior, we had no intention of offending you. Please forgive us."

He had just witnessed Lu Chuan's sudden appearance. His speed had been utterly unfathomable, and the violet shield he had casually formed had easily blocked the rain of arrows.

Such methods undoubtedly proved that Lu Chuan was a terrifyingly powerful expert.

Someone like that was not an existence their Wolf Head Mercenary Group could afford to offend.

At this moment, Xiao Yi Xian had also recovered from the threat of death. Looking at Lu Chuan standing before her, she realized that someone had saved her.

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

Looking at Lu Chuan before her, a glimmer of hope rose in Xiao Yi Xian's heart as she spoke gratefully.

Lu Chuan ignored Mu She and his son. Upon hearing Xiao Yi Xian's voice, he slowly turned around and examined her with a hint of scrutiny in his gaze.

Although she looked somewhat disheveled at the moment, her graceful figure was still striking.

She really was just as described in the original work—a genuine beauty.

Fortunately, he had arrived in time. Otherwise, this little beauty would have been gone.

"Do you wish to live?"

Lu Chuan swept his gaze over Xiao Yi Xian before asking in a deep voice.

At his words, Mu She and Son's expressions changed, yet they did not dare make a sound. Fear grew ever stronger in their hearts.

If this senior was willing to help Xiao Yi Xian, then they would be in danger today.

Xiao Yi Xian, meanwhile, revealed a delighted expression and directly knelt before Lu Chuan. "I beg Senior to save us. This junior will be forever grateful!"

What Lu Chuan wanted was not Xiao Yi Xian's gratitude.

"This King's condition is that after I save your life, you must submit to This King and never betray me!"

Lu Chuan directly stated his purpose. His reason for coming here was to obtain Xiao Yi Xian's body and have her bear his children.

Lu Chuan scoffed inwardly at talk of eternal gratitude.

Such things were empty. What mattered was what came afterward!

"What?"

Upon hearing Lu Chuan's condition, Xiao Yi Xian's expression shifted slightly. She seemed somewhat conflicted, but when she glanced at the severely wounded Blue Eagle behind her, determination flashed through her eyes. "As long as Senior can preserve my friend's life, this junior is willing to sincerely follow Senior and obey all of Senior's commands from now on!"

For Blue Eagle's sake, Xiao Yi Xian ultimately chose to submit to Lu Chuan.

Hearing this, Lu Chuan glanced at Blue Eagle, who was currently lying on the ground and letting out pained cries. A smile appeared on his lips. "That's simple."

After saying that, a jade bottle appeared directly in Lu Chuan's hand.

Lu Chuan poured out a crystal-clear medicinal pill, and its fragrance instantly filled the air.

"This is... a medicinal pill!"

Xiao Yi Xian's eyes immediately lit up as she looked at the pill in Lu Chuan's hand.

Could this senior also be a distinguished alchemist?

A flicker of wonder passed through Xiao Yi Xian's eyes. Since childhood, she had hoped to become an alchemist herself, and she held alchemists in great respect.

"Give it to him."

Lu Chuan handed the pill to Xiao Yi Xian and spoke slowly.

This was a fourth-grade healing pill. He still had quite a few such pills in his Storage Ring, all refined by Yao Chen and his disciple during this period.

"Thank you, Senior."

Xiao Yi Xian accepted the pill from Lu Chuan with a delighted expression, then carefully fed it to the Giant Blue Eagle.

As the pill entered Blue Eagle's body, its potent medicinal power swiftly took effect.

A moment later, Blue Eagle's endlessly bleeding wounds rapidly stopped bleeding, and the wounds began to scab over at a visible rate.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi Xian was overjoyed. At the same time, she marveled that Lu Chuan's medicinal pill was surely of extraordinary quality.

"From this day onward, you belong to This King."

Seeing that Blue Eagle's injuries were no longer serious, Lu Chuan spoke directly to Xiao Yi Xian.

The Wolf Head Mercenary Group and the others around them had never been worth his notice.

PS: Brothers, I think I've caught COVID again. I have a fever and a sore throat... I was clearly fine this afternoon...

I've already taken fever medicine. I hope I can update normally tomorrow.
