Chapter 1365: Chapter 1367: Only You Can Heal My Wounds_1

Someone was unhappy upon hearing this, ”What are you babbling about? The Saintess is compassionate and kind-hearted.”

”But I saw that the Holy Hall was going to judge them that day, accusing Lady Bai of blaspheming the gods. During the trial, red incense was burned.” The person spoke as if they were gossiping, ”Saintess Honglian has also reached marriageable age; it’s not strange for her to fancy someone. It’s just that the handsome young gentleman already has a lady, and she is favored by the gods.”

In the Western Regions, it was normal for the Saintess to marry. The previous Saintess had fallen for the hostage sent by Danliang Country, so the citizens found it unsurprising. Hence, the rumor didn’t seem impossible, and the discussion spread among the crowd. However, no one spoke ill of Honglian; they all just hoped she would marry a good man.

Not far away, Ao Qi’s lips curled into a smile; he had learned this trick while he was in the Capital City of Danliang Country from Bai Ruozhu.

He had always known that Bai Ruozhu’s name wasn’t Lin Zhu, and Jiang Yichun wasn’t Bai Shu. He had spent some time in the Capital City of Danliang and especially after discovering that Bai Ruozhu was the destined one for his grandmother, he had observed her in secret for a while. He was very familiar with many things about her and couldn’t help but admire his late grandmother for her foresight in choosing such an outstanding fated one.

Perhaps Bai Ruozhu could fulfill his grandmother’s unfinished wishes.

Soon, the news that the Saintess stopped Jiang Yichun to bless him spread throughout Gaochang City. With Ao Qi secretly sending people to stir and guide the discussion, many became aware of Honglian’s special attention to Jiang Yichun.

Although Saintess Honglian’s image was deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people and they rarely dared to gossip about her, if she showed similar behavior again or targeted Bai Ruozhu, the people would start to think differently.

By the time Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun learned about this, it was already two days later. For the past two days, Bai Ruozhu had been regulating Jiang Yichun’s health, and in the middle of the night, had the dark guard quietly bring Xiaohei into the Palace and secretly kept him in Qingyou Hall.

Xiaohei’s recovery ability exceeded Bai Ruozhu’s expectations. If it weren’t because its leg was fractured and Bai Ruozhu did not allow it to move about, it would have been able to walk around already.

Even Jiang Yichun couldn’t help but envy Xiaohei’s incredible healing power.

Bai Ruozhu took Jiang Yichun to the Spatial hot springs twice, and his internal injuries recovered very quickly. However, after a private discussion, they decided to pretend his injuries were still severe, creating a deceptive appearance to confuse the adversary.

Seeing how quickly Jiang Yichun was recovering, Bai Ruozhu suddenly thought of bringing Xiaohei into the Space, thinking it would be good for it to eat some fish and take a hot spring bath.

But when she tried to take Xiaohei with her, she couldn’t bring him into the Space. While pondering why, Furball suddenly popped out and bit her finger, then twisted its body at her.

Bai Ruozhu felt pain and almost wanted to beat Furball up. Her own Poisonous Insect had bitten her, acting like it was backfiring on her.

”Are you saying I should smear my blood on its forehead?” Bai Ruozhu asked.

Furball twisted its body again. Bai Ruozhu hummed in acknowledgement and smeared the fresh blood flowing from her finger onto Xiaohei’s forehead.

When she tried to bring Xiaohei into the Space again, it went smoothly this time!

Bai Ruozhu was delighted and got the idea to conduct an experiment. She stepped out of the Space and said to Jiang Yichun, ”I’ll try to see if I can take you and Xiaohei over at the same time.”

Jiang Yichun glanced at her and said, ”Xiaohei isn’t by your side.”

Bai Ruozhu suddenly realized that when she left the Space, Xiaohei wouldn’t fall out, just like Furball!

It’s blood! She had also fed Furball a drop of her blood before.

Excitedly, she pulled Jiang Yichun into the Space, where, as expected, Xiaohei was crouched inside, his eyes filled with astonishment.

”Achun, look, it’s so great, from now on, when I’m fine I can keep Xiaohei here, and when there’s trouble, I can call him out immediately to protect me at the first moment!” Bai Ruozhu exclaimed joyfully.

Jiang Yichun nodded, ”That’s not bad, it’s always a bit inconvenient for it to be outside, but it’s not strong enough yet, and it’s been seriously injured, I’m afraid you’ll have to take good care of it first.”

Bai Ruozhu glanced at Xiaohei, whose ears drooped at that moment, looking very ashamed; nowhere near the fierce leopard it was, but more like a domesticated black cat.

She playfully pushed Jiang Yichun and said, ”Look, you’ve almost made Xiaohei cry.”

Jiang Yichun laughed, walked over and petted Xiaohei’s head. Although Xiaohei was somewhat resistant, it cleverly did not dodge when it caught Bai Ruozhu’s expectant gaze.

After all, the master’s man deserved some respect.

Jiang Yichun was also in a good mood. Many men had thought of raising a dog, and raising a leopard seemed even better, as if it could stir the wildness in a man’s heart. Although Jiang Yichun didn’t have a Beast Pet, petting Xiaohei delighted him greatly.

Afterward, they left Xiaohei in the Space to heal, and the two of them walked out feeling refreshed and energized.

Soon, the morning breeze brought the latest news to them. Jiang Yichun’s face stiffened as he listened, and he turned to Bai Ruozhu, asking, ”It’s not you using me as a prop again, is it?”

”How could it be me? I’ve been too busy taking care of you these past two days to deal with anything else, and when have I always used you as a prop?” Bai Ruozhu pouted, displeased.

”Then who could it be? It’s making me feel like I’m a jinx,” sighed Jiang Yichun helplessly.

Bai Ruozhu snickered, ”You are a jinx, and these rumors are the truth. If there really wasn’t anything going on, why did Saintess Honglian specifically scheme to have you staring at her the last time at the Holy Hall? If she wanted to drive a wedge between us, she could have made you stare at her mother or some maid instead.”

Jiang Yichun’s eyes darkened, and a dangerous storm seemed to be brewing in them. He reached out, pulled Bai Ruozhu into his embrace with anger in his voice, ”You even dare to bring up Diao Mo, that wanton woman. It seems I need to properly discipline you!”

Bai Ruozhu exclaimed in shock; her feet were off the ground as Jiang Yichun swept her up in his arms, heading for the bed.

Jiang Yichun had been injured these past few days, preventing any further intimacy. As his injuries began to heal, Jiang Yichun found it hard to contain himself, especially since his little woman had just angered him.

”Hey, you’re still injured, don’t be reckless!” Bai Ruozhu said with a blushing face. She caught a glimpse of the morning breeze, already bowing his head with suppressed laughter as he wisely helped them close the room door tightly.

”You still dare to anger me when I’m injured? Only you can treat my injuries, so resistance is futile...”

He finished speaking and, with a mischievous smile, pounced on her. She grumbled with both shame and annoyance, trying to push him away, but not wanting to hurt him because of his injuries, she ended up being pinned helplessly beneath him...
