In Dou Qi Continent, One Talent Trait Every Day

Beneath the inner armor was a vicious wound, blood dripping from it.

If not for this inner armor, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's strike would have been enough to pierce straight through Yun Yun's chest!

Though he said he would treat her wounds, Xu Qi faced an awkward situation—despite already being a First-Rank Alchemist, he had never refined a single pill.

In other words, he did not have any pills for stopping bleeding or healing injuries on him.

However, Xu Qi was not completely empty-handed.

During his time in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, he had gathered quite a few herbs that could stop bleeding.

Though these herbs had not been refined into pills, they still had some healing and hemostatic effects on their own.

Xu Qi dumped out a large handful of medicinal herbs used for treating wounds.

To use raw herbs directly on an injury required a simple and brutal process—chewing them up.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Xu Qi suddenly stuff a handful of herbs into his mouth, Yun Yun hurriedly asked.

"I... don't have any pills on me... so I can only use herbs as a substitute for now..."

Xu Qi spoke as he chewed.

Very quickly, he chewed a clump of herbs into mush and spat it into his hand.

"Wait, wait a moment!"

Seeing that he was actually about to apply the chewed herbs to her wound, Yun Yun hurriedly stopped him.

Xu Qi did not have pills, but she did!

But—

Yun Yun remembered that she could not move right now, so she could not take anything out of her Storage Ring.

Moreover, her Storage Ring had a restriction on it. No one else could take the items inside out.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun could only give up.

"Forget it... apply it."

"Got it."

After receiving her permission, Xu Qi carefully spread the chewed herbs across his palm, then gently pressed them onto Yun Yun's wound.

The medicinal properties of the herbs instantly stimulated the pain receptors in her wound.

The clump of herbs was still covered in Xu Qi's saliva, warm as it touched the most sensitive skin on Yun Yun's chest.

The double stimulation immediately left her with complicated feelings, and a faint moan escaped her thin lips despite herself.

"Next comes the bandaging. You can't wear this inner armor for now, so I'll bandage it directly."

Xu Qi tore a strip of cloth from his own clothes and carefully bandaged her wound.

Then he took off his own clothes and put them on Yun Yun.

"Alright, Sect Master. How do you feel now?"

"M-Much better." Yun Yun lightly bit her thin lips. A flush had appeared on her pale, pretty face.

First, throughout the whole treatment process, Xu Qi had practically seen all of her.

Even if it had been necessary for treating her injuries, that did not mean she truly did not mind at all.

Second, while Xu Qi had been applying the medicine and bandaging her wound, he had inevitably touched her most sensitive spots several times, making her feel an involuntary, embarrassed excitement.

Fortunately, the bandaging was finished.

"Help me sit up," she said.

Xu Qi immediately helped her up with the utmost care.

"Answer whatever I ask. Why are you here?" Yun Yun stared at Xu Qi with her bright eyes, her tone carrying a hint of interrogation.

"Didn't I tell you before, Sect Master, that I wanted to come out and gain experience? The Monster Beast Mountain Range is the best place for that, so I came here," Xu Qi explained.

"There's nothing wrong with coming to the Monster Beast Mountain Range for experience, but this is the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range. You dared come here alone?" Yun Yun pressed.

"I just accidentally went a little too deep... Besides, if I hadn't happened to be here, I wouldn't have been able to save you, Sect Master." Xu Qi lowered his head slightly, his words carrying a trace of grievance.

Yun Yun's heart immediately softened.

Though she did not understand why Xu Qi had come here alone.

What he said was not wrong.

If not for Xu Qi, she would have long been found by the magical beasts outside and torn to pieces.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun stopped pursuing the reason Xu Qi had appeared here.

"Fine. Then, until my seal is lifted, you can stay and help me," she said.

"Of course! Sect Master, you're so badly injured. How could I possibly leave?" Xu Qi wore a look of righteous loyalty.
