Ancient Godly Monarch

Chu Qingyi carried Qin Wentian as she continued on, walking out of the Coldnether Lake. After that, she entered a palace and placed Qin Wentian down as she put on a robe. Staring at that unconscious figure, she couldn’t help but furrow her brows. Qin Wentian’s injuries were extremely serious. It’s highly probable that his injuries were caused by a fight before he appeared here, bursting out from the void. It’s absolutely impossible for Mo Xiaoxiao to injure him.

Back then when in the sacred academy, Qin Wentian was already strong enough to fight with Huang Shatian. How could a single strike by Mo Xiaoxiao injure him? That was nothing but a wrong assumption on Mo Xiaoxiao’s part.

Although she had no idea what Qin Wentian had encountered earlier, the improvement to his strength is undoubtedly much faster than hers. Who exactly was the one who injured him? Also, from how deep his injuries were, that person attacking must be an extremely ruthless individual.

“Should I save you?” Chu Qingyi stared at Qin Wentian. Her heart was in chaos, unable to calm down. Back then in the sacred academy, she hated Qin Wentian immensely. It was because of him that she was injured, which eventually led to her suffering that humiliation. Although she was saved by him at the end, he still kidnapped her and constantly tormented her with his words.

But now, she couldn’t find it in herself to hate him. In fact, her heart was telling her to save him.

After struggling for some time, Chu Qingyi carried up Qin Wentian again. Her figure flashed as she departed the area. Qin Wentian was heavily injured and she had no idea if there was any danger to his life. She alone had no way to cure Qin Wentian, if she wanted to help him, she could only temporarily send him to the city lord manor.

The city lord of Coldnether Immortal City was a peak-stage immortal king, and was a subordinate power to the Snowdrift Sage Hall. The city lord should be able to help Qin Wentian. It was just that she didn’t like going there. But now, for the sake of him, she could only grit her teeth and bring him over.

Within the city lord manor of Coldnether Immortal City, that place was extremely majestic. When Chu Qingyi brought Qin Wentian over, nobody dared to block her. All of them knew of her identity.

Chu Qingyi entered the depths of the manor, and walked towards one of the residences there. A group of experts came to welcome her and the person in the lead was actually a beautiful maiden. Her countenance was exquisite, her aura extraordinary. She was one of the daughters of the city lord’s clan and was someone that had a pretty good relationship with Chu Qingyi.

“Qingyi, who is this?” That maiden couldn’t help but ask when she saw Chu Qingyi actually carrying a man over.

“He is a friend of mine. Lu Yao, his injuries are very serious. Can you help me?” Chu Qingyi’s beautiful eyes turned to Lu Yao.

“Qingyi, I will naturally help you. I have a pill here, this is something my father gave me, a seventh-grade grand recovery pill and it should be sufficient to protect his life.” Lu Yao took out a sparkling immortal-grade pill as the fragrance permeated the air. This made Chu Qingyi exceptionally moved. She then spoke, “Lu Yao, consider this as me owing you a favor.”

“Don’t worry, my dad is an alchemist. You should know that I have no lack of immortal medicine and pills.” Lu Yao laughed and passed the grand recovery pill to Chu Qingyi. After that, Chu Qingyi placed the pill in Qin Wentian’s mouth and smoothed it down his throat. Lu Yao felt somewhat bewildered when she saw this scene. She was acquainted with Chu Qingyi since a very long time ago and it was very rare for Chu Qingyi to be so worried towards someone. A seventh-grade immortal pill was something sufficient to save an immortal king expert. Yet she gave it to this friend of hers with no hesitation.

When the pill took effect, Qin Wentian’s body suddenly emitted a fragrance as his blood started flowing more smoothly within his veins. His body also started to shine slightly with a luster, no longer as pale as before.

“Seems like it’s taking effect. Don’t worry, stellar martial cultivators all have very strong recovery abilities. That in addition to the pill’s effects, he will definitely be saved.” Lu Yao lightly spoke, as Chu Qingyi nodded.

“If you are still worried, I can go and brew some other medicine for him to consume, allowing him to wake up earlier.” Lu Yao smiled and walked out. Chu Qingyi was in a daze as she stared at the features of Qin Wentian, it was unknown what she was thinking in her heart. Right now, she felt very complicated. She only came out of the daze after Lu Yao returned. She took the bowl of brewed medicine and started feeding it to Qin Wentian.

After that, the color of Qin Wentian’s face also started to come back. Evidently, the medicine was effective.

“He should awaken soon.” Lu Yao spoke.

“I’ll go out for a walk.” Chu Qingyi replied and started walking out from the residence.

“Qingyi.” Lu Yao started as she called out.

“Help me to take care of him.” Chu Qingyi’s voice rang out. Lu Yao couldn’t understand what was going on. She stood beside Qin Wentian and stared at his features while thinking that Chu Qingyi’s judgement was pretty high. After all, Chu Qingyi was a holy maiden character of the Snowdrift Sage Hall, the person who could make her have an interest, would definitely be extraordinary as well.

At this moment, the energy within Qin Wentian’s body started to circulate automatically. Not long after, he soon regained consciousness. He opened his eyes as a beautiful face appeared in his vision.

After using his senses to scan his body internally, he felt the source of medical strength aiding him in his recovery. He knew he had suffered heavy injuries and if he depended on his own recovery abilities, there would be no way for him to wake up so quickly. Clearly, the medical effect had helped a lot, allowing him to gain consciousness again in such a short time.

“Where am I?” Qin Wentian asked.

“This place is the city lord manor. You should take a good rest and try to recover, the effect of the grand recovery pill should still be circulating within your body. Don’t waste it, try to absorb as much as possible. It will definitely be beneficial to you.” Lu Yao smiled sweetly. Qin Wentian lightly nodded as he started to actively absorb the pill’s medical effects, merging it into his bloodstream and circulated it to all parts of his body.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed. Qin Wentian had recovered plenty during these seven days and all external wounds had disappeared. He could already stand up himself and walked about easily. Also, although his internal injuries are more serious, they are gradually recovering as well.

At this moment, as he was walking around in the courtyard of the residence, Lu Yao came by. She smiled at him, “Why are you up so early?”

“Nothing, just feel like walking around.” Qin Wentian smiled back. “Lu Yao, I have to thank you for your care during these days.”

“I’m merely helping my friend out, there’s no need to thank me.” Lu Yao had an innocent smile on her face.

“Helping your friend?” Qin Wentian curiously asked.

“Yes, Holy Maiden Qingyi was the one who asked me to take care of you. She just tossed you here to me and went about her own carefree ways.” Lu Yao smiled wryly as she shook her head. Qin Wentian was stunned as he mumbled, “Holy Maiden Qingyi?”

“Don’t you know about this?” Lu Yao stared at Qin Wentian with a look of puzzlement on her face. “The holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sage Hall, Chu Qingyi. She was the one who brought you here when you were seriously injured, beseeching me to take good care of you.”

“Chu Qingyi!” Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed as he gradually recalled. A figure appeared in his mind’s eye as a strange look appeared on his face. Back then, didn’t Chu Qingyi hate him immensely when they were in the sacred academy? He had even kidnapped her but she actually saved him now and asked Lu Yao to take good care of him?

“Chu Qingyi asked you to help and you just agreed to like that” At this moment, a cold voice drifted over. Lu Yao inclined her head only to see a group of figures directly entering her residence, flying through the air.

“Holy Maiden Mo.” Lu Yao’s expression changed when she saw Mo Xiaoxiao here.

“You gave him the Grand Recovery Pill to consume?” Mo Xiaoxiao coldly stared at Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian then remembered that this maiden was the blurry figure he saw before he fainted. She was the one who attacked him.

“Yes.” Lu Yao nodded.

“How dare you!” Mo Xiaoxiao coldly snorted. “The Grand Recovery Pills concocted by the city lord manor are given in very little quantity to my Snowdrift Sage Hall as a tribute. It’s fine that your father gave them for your own usage, but you actually took one out for this lecher to consume? Since this is the case, why don’t you just directly give it to my sect as tribute?”

“Holy maiden, that grand recovery pill is my personal item. I should have the authority to decide who I want to give it to? Am I wrong?” Lu Yao lifted her head and stared at Mo Xiaoxiao.

“Lu Yao, why are you speaking to the holy maiden this way. Quickly apologize.” Beside Mo Xiaoxiao, an arrogant-looking young man stood there as he icily spoke.

“If I’m not in the wrong, why must I apologize?” Lu Yao stubbornly continued.

“You are getting more and more unruly, even me, your elder brother, is unable to persuade you now? Hurry up and apologize to Holy Maiden Mo.” That young man coldly spoke, causing Lu Yao to grit her teeth with reluctance.

Qin Wentian furrowed his brows when he saw this scene. Just as he wanted to speak, a misty voice rang out as Chu Qingyi appeared beside him. She coldly spoke, “Mo Xiaoxiao, Lu Feng. What do you two mean by bullying Lu Yao?”

“What do we mean? Chu Qingyi, it’s fine if you want to fool around with a man. However, you even brought your lover into the Lu Clan and exploited the relationship between you and Lu Yao to cheat a grand recovery pill from her. Could it be that you don’t know our Snowdrift Sage Hall lacks grand recovery pills urgently? You are actually willing to waste one on an unimportant person.”

When Qin Wentian saw that it was really Chu Qingyi that appeared, he was truly extremely startled. He didn’t expect that it would actually be her. Chu Qingyi had actually helped him.

“Holy Maiden Qingyi, Mo Xiaoxiao is right. As a holy maiden of our sect, Lu Yao naturally wouldn’t reject your request. However, a grand recovery pill is still something extremely valuable. Because your lover got injured, you used it on him instead of gifting it to our sect. This cannot be justified.” That young man sneered.

“You all really want to make things ugly for me?” Chu Qingyi’s expression turned cold. Mo Xiaoxiao had always been against her. Right now, she was actually deliberately blowing things up, wanting to go against her.

“I’ve already said that this grand recovery pill will be treated as a personal favor which I owe to Lu Yao. It has nothing to do with you two.” Chu Qingyi icily spoke.

“Isn’t this grand recovery pill consumed by me?” At this moment, Qin Wentian stepped out and spoke, causing Chu Qingyi and Lu Yao to glanced at him. Chu Qingyi had a complicated look in her eyes. When coming face to face with Qin Wentian, she actually didn’t know how to react.

“Since I was the one who consumed it, I will naturally pay it back to Miss Lu Yao myself. There’s no need for anyone else to shoulder this debt for me.” Qin Wentian spoke. Chu Qingyi’s beautiful eyes flashed as she lowered her head, actually feeling a little disappointed. Did Qin Wentian still loathe her and was unwilling to accept her kindness?

“You pay it back?” Mo Xiaoxiao laughed. “Do you know how valuable a seventh-grade grand recovery pill is? Just with you alone? How can you pay it back?”

That young man also laughed, staring mockingly at Qin Wentian.

“Did I consume a pill that belonged to the two of you?” Qin Wentian stared at Mo Xiaoxiao and Lu Feng as he asked.

“Although you did not, this matter has something to do with us.” Mo Xiaoxiao coldly replied.

“Since I did not, why are the two of you barking so much?” Qin Wentian coldly stated.
