Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 5035: Gifting spiritual Jade

Translator: 549690339

Back in his room, Lin Yi’s head hurt as he used his spirit sense to check on the room next door. He found that lengniu was still taking medicine and soaking in the medicinal bath. It had been ten days and her injuries still hadn’t healed.

If Lin Yi were to help her, her injuries would only take a few minutes. Even if she only took a peak grade four great recovery pill, she would’ve recovered after so many days. It was a pity that even though she used the ingredients of a peak grade four great recovery pill, it was the least efficient way to boil the medicine. Even with the medicinal bath, it would be good if the effect was one-tenth of it.

Moreover, this was the secular world. There might still be very thin spiritual Qi left in the deep mountains and old forests, but in this city where humans lived, it was equivalent to none at all. This meant that every bit of spiritual Qi consumed was very difficult to replenish in a short time. As such, the little cold girl’s recovery speed was naturally even slower.

Lengniu wasn’t the only one panicking-even Lin Yi, a bystander, was panicking as well. He couldn’t help but shake his head-it’d be great if he’d just said it out loud, and he’d heal her for sure if he wanted to get closer to her as soon as possible. Why did he have to go through all this trouble? This cold chick’s personality that kept people at arm’s length really harmed both herself and others.

Lin Yi was hesitating if he should find a chance to break through the paper window and heal her when lengniu gritted her teeth and took out something from her bag carefully. It was a spiritual Jade!

However, the color of this spiritual Jade was already very dull-there wasn’t much spiritual Qi left in it. If it was on Sky Class Island, people would throw it out like a useless piece of Jade. Only Lin Yi, who had the Jade space, would put it away.

But this useless piece of Jade in Lin Yi’s eyes was now a treasure to this lengniu, and she was even acting like she was heartache for it, which really made Lin Yi laugh.

Little cold girl held this piece of spiritual Jade in her hand, gritting her teeth as she absorbed ten percent of the spiritual energy from the world. Finally, with the ready-made spiritual energy supplement, her entire condition was obviously much better, and her face had become a little rosier. However, her injuries were still far from completely healed, and this little bit of spiritual energy from the world could only slightly alleviate the urgent situation at hand.

She was like a traveler walking in the desert. Not only was she injured, but she was also thirsty and tired. The spiritual energy she absorbed was only equivalent to drinking a mouthful of water, which gave her a little more strength to fight against her injuries. If she could not get more follow-up replenishment, the final result would inevitably be that her physical strength could not support it and her injuries would worsen. The end was conceivable.

The secular world was a heaven for ordinary people, but for cultivators who were extremely dependent on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, even if this place was not hell, it was at least a desert-like existence. The environment was unprecedentedly harsh.

Under normal circumstances, it could still be sustained, but once it was injured like the cold chick, even if the injury itself was not that serious, it would often continue to deteriorate due to the lack of spiritual energy, until it developed to an incurable stage. This was the cruel world.

Although the cold chick had not reached the point of being beyond saving because she had insisted on taking medicine and soaking in medicinal baths, it was still a problem that her injuries could not be fully healed. If she did not get enough spiritual energy to replenish herself, even if her condition did not worsen, there was no possibility of a full recovery in a short time.

She was well aware of this, but she only had this piece of spiritual Jade in her hands, and the spiritual energy was about to be used up. What could she do?

She had to use it sparingly even with such a small amount of spiritual energy. Using 10% of it this time was already an exception. She did not dare to use any more than that, so she could only quickly and carefully put it away.

Lin Yi looked at the scene, deep in thought. From what lengniu said, it confirmed one thing-she wasn’t from the common world, and she had a spirit Jade with her. This meant that the place she came from had a lot more spiritual Qi than the common world, and it was impossible for a spirit Jade to form naturally in a place like the common world.

Lin Yi could also conclude that lengniu wasn’t from Sky Class Island-she was still a Foundation, after all. If she were from Sky Class Island, the new disciples of the North Island wouldn’t even care about a piece of useless Jade with no spiritual Qi, much less treasure it like she did.

Moreover, according to the market price of the Sky Class Island, the value of the fourth-grade great recovery pill’s ingredients alone was far more than a piece of spiritual Jade, let alone a piece of useless Jade.

And so, Lin Yi could pretty much guess what was going on in lengniu’s place-the Qi was much denser than in the common world, but nowhere near as dense as Sky Class Island. Spirit Jade could be formed there, but it was extremely rare-it definitely wouldn’t be as common as Sky Class Island. This was the only way to explain lengniu’s situation, and why there were so many Tiandao Masters appearing out of nowhere.

But he didn’t know where they came from.

No matter what, Lin Yi was ready to get straight to the point as soon as possible. He was patient, but ten days had already passed. He couldn’t waste any more time.

Plus, he’d been trying to please her for so long-even if lengniu didn’t say it out loud, she’d already established a sense of acknowledgment in her heart. She wouldn’t have chased the two punks away if she didn’t do it otherwise-it was time, and Lin Yi thought that even if he did reveal his identity, he wouldn’t be treated as an enemy anymore.

The next morning, Lin Yi went to knock on the door as usual. He’d knock quite a few times in the first few days, but now the cold girl would open the door as soon as he raised his hand. They’d developed an unspeakable bond.

As expected, the tall lady opened the door swiftly and was about to reject him out of habit when she realized that Lin Yi’s hands were empty, “You’re not going to give me anything this time?”

“Hehe, it seems like you still want me to send you back.” Lin Yi smiled.

“Who wants to? I’m just curious, why are you knocking on the door?” The tall woman looked at him in confusion.

“You’re right. I’m still going to give you something. ” A Jade appeared in Lin Yi’s hand as he spoke, passing it to the cold girl.”I have a beautiful piece of Jade. As the saying goes, a beautiful jade is compatible with a beautiful woman, so I want to give it to you.”

“I don’t want to!” The tall lady rejected subconsciously, but when she saw the Jade in Lin Yi’s hand from the corner of her eyes, she couldn’t take her eyes off it anymore. She mumbled in shock,”This … How could this be …”

She didn’t dare to say the word “spiritual Jade” in front of Lin Yi, but she was sure that it was spiritual Jade, and it was of the highest quality! (To be continued.) ”
