Battle Through the Heavens: Live Q&a Session - Only I Know the Answers

149: Chapter 148 The Little Fairy Doctor’s ReprimandThis green liquid was called Spirit Blood Powder, a rather precious Tier 3 medicinal pill specifically used to repair damaged flesh. For the exhausted and weak Zi Yan at this moment, it was exactly what she needed.

Chen Yang gently placed Zi Yan into the bathtub. The warm water enveloped her body like a pair of gentle hands, softly soothing every inch of her skin.

He picked up a soft towel and carefully wiped her body, every movement filled with deep affection and care.

After cleaning Zi Yan’s body, he took a set of clean, soft clothes from the wardrobe nearby and gently dressed her. Afterward, he laid her softly on the bed, pulled over a soft quilt, carefully covered her with it, and tucked in the corners.

Watching Zi Yan’s peaceful sleeping expression, the corners of Chen Yang’s mouth curled up slightly, outlining a satisfied and gentle smile. He stood quietly by the bedside for a moment.

Afterward, Chen Yang slowly turned around and left the room with light footsteps, fearing he might disturb Zi Yan’s sweet dreams.

Zi Yan had not actually fallen into a deep sleep. In her hazy state, she vaguely sensed the movement of Chen Yang getting up and leaving.

Recalling the series of gentle, caring actions Chen Yang had just performed, every soft caress was like a trickling stream under the warm spring sun, slowly flowing into the depths of her heart, filling her with warmth.

To be honest, at first, Zi Yan had quite a few complaints about Chen Yang suddenly opening up a new intimate channel.

That heart-piercing pain was no less than the bitter battle she had experienced for the first time. Although she had tasted some unique pleasure afterward.

But that pain was truly unforgettable. It hurt so much that tears welled up in her eyes, and she couldn’t help but harbor some resentment toward Chen Yang in her heart.

However, under the series of meticulous care that Chen Yang provided afterward, the resentment in Zi Yan’s heart gradually dissipated.

Watching Chen Yang busy himself for her—preparing bath water, carefully wiping her body, dressing her, and covering her with a quilt—her heart softened completely. Her resentment had long since vanished, leaving only overwhelming gratitude.

At this moment, sensing that Chen Yang had already left, a faint, imperceptible smile curled the corners of Zi Yan’s mouth.

Zi Yan slowly relaxed her body completely, like a lazy kitten, and drifted into dreamland. This ordeal had truly left her exhausted.

Outside, Chen Yang stood quietly alone at the bow of the ship, his posture as upright as a pine, as if he had merged with this vast and mysterious space. His deep eyes gazed into the boundless blue space in the distance, as if he could pierce through this endless depth to see the distant shore.

Chen Yang closed his eyes slightly and focused his senses. Relying on his keen perception of spatial power, he calculated that they were still about four days away from the Central Plains.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang no longer hesitated. He quickly formed hand seals, and immense divine power surged from his palms like a raging tide, once again precisely pouring into the ship.

Under the reinforcement of his divine power, the spatial ship seemed to have been injected with a stimulant. The hull trembled slightly, then accelerated again, flying toward the destination like a blue bolt of lightning.

Just as Chen Yang was resting with his eyes closed, immersed in reverie about the Central Plains, a faint yet clear sound of footsteps suddenly came from behind him.

The footsteps were rhythmic and brisk, accompanied by the distinct crisp sound of high heels, appearing exceptionally abrupt in this silent space.

Chen Yang turned his head subconsciously, and what came into view were Xiao Yi Xian’s eyes, filled with resentment, like two bottomless pools of dark springs. The reproach within them was self-evident.

”Chen Yang, you really put Zi Yan through a lot.”

Xiao Yi Xian moved lightly, walking to Chen Yang’s side in a few steps. She did not look at him, but instead cast her gaze toward the boundless void in the distance, her tone calm but carrying a hint of reproach.

”Uh, this...”

Chen Yang was like a child who had done something wrong. Having been hit right in his weak spot, his face turned pale and then red. He opened his mouth, but for a long time, he couldn’t manage to spit out a complete sentence.

He scratched his head, his embarrassment having nowhere to hide.

Xiao Yi Xian turned her head, staring straight at Chen Yang, and spoke again: ”I was originally immersed in cultivation and in a perfect state, but Zi Yan’s heart-wrenching screams were simply too loud, forcibly dragging me out of my meditative state.”

Speaking of this, she paused slightly, the resentment in her eyes deepening. ”I didn’t expect you, this lecher, to actually open up a new... channel on Zi Yan’s such petite and tender body.”

Saying this, Xiao Yi Xian’s cheeks flushed slightly, and the last few words were spoken exceptionally softly, as if they were somewhat difficult to say.

”You really are!”

She huffed lightly and turned her head away, clearly still angry.

Listening to this string of complaints from Xiao Yi Xian, Chen Yang was filled with guilt. It was indeed his momentary impulse just now, without considering things thoroughly, that had caused this whole situation.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang hurriedly lowered his head, like a student who had made a mistake apologizing to a teacher, and said in a low voice: ”Haha, Xian’er, I won’t do it again, really.”

Chen Yang awkwardly raised his hand, scratched his head, and forced a smile that looked worse than crying. Xiao Yi Xian gently shook her head, appearing half-believing and half-doubting of Chen Yang’s promise.

Xiao Yi Xian gazed at Chen Yang, sighed slightly, and said earnestly: ”Chen Yang, Zi Yan is still young, and there are many things she is still ignorant about. I hope that next time, before you do anything, you will think it over more carefully and not act so recklessly again.”

”Yes, yes.”

Chen Yang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, his attitude as sincere as could be; he might as well have raised his hand to swear an oath.

Seeing Chen Yang’s remorseful and sincere look of admission, Xiao Yi Xian gently shook her head, the reproach in her heart fading slightly.

She turned her face slightly, her gaze falling on Chen Yang’s face, and asked softly: ”Chen Yang, how far are we actually from the Central Plains now? About how many days will it take to arrive?”

Hearing this, Chen Yang responded immediately without hesitation: ”Four days. As long as I continue to inject divine power into this spatial ship, it will be able to maintain a very fast speed. It won’t be long before we can set foot on the land of the Central Plains.”

As Chen Yang spoke, he looked up at the deep spatial tunnel, his eyes flashing with a firm light. ”I also wonder what the situation in the Central Plains is like right now.”

Chen Yang frowned slightly, his tone unconsciously carrying a trace of worry. For a long time, he had suffered from having no reliable source of information and knew almost nothing about the many developments in the Central Plains.

He did not know if the Pill Tower’s Pill Gathering had already begun. That was a grand event that gathered countless alchemist geniuses, where various forces would compete.

Nor did he know if that mysterious Dou Sheng Ruin had appeared, or if the Bodhi Ancient Tree he had been thinking about, and the Cycle of a Hundred Lifetimes beneath it, had appeared. This was a heaven-sent opportunity that could allow a person to be reborn.

With Chen Yang’s current strength, he naturally did not fear people from the Ancient Eight Clans competing with him for these opportunities.

However, the unknown situation still made him feel vaguely uneasy.
