Chapter 789 - 761: Consuming Essence Blood

Sun Zhe resolutely abandoned chasing those who slipped through the net, hurriedly carried Mu Qingyan into the cave, and placed her on the stone bed, his heart burning with anxiety.

"Qingyan, why are you so foolish?"

"Just hold on, I’ll heal you!"

Just as Little Dragon Girl had analyzed before, Mu Qingyan’s Dao Foundation injuries were not healed.

Earlier, seeing that Sun Zhe was in life-threatening danger, she disregarded everything, interrupting her healing and forcing herself out.

Later, in order to eliminate the formidable enemy Qin Yuanfei in the shortest time possible, she risked her life to activate the secret technique, burning her Essence Blood and causing her meridians to break, which resulted in that earth-shattering sword strike.

On the stone bed.

Mu Qingyan’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, she weakly opened her eyes, looking at Sun Zhe with gentle eyes, "Don’t worry about me, quickly..."

"Don’t talk!"

Sun Zhe’s tone deepened as he interrupted her words, using an indisputable tone to say: "Lie down obediently, with me here, you won’t die!"

Mu Qingyan’s eyes trembled, her gaze grew gentler, and she said no more.

Sun Zhe took a deep breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, then reached out with both hands, swiftly removing Mu Qingyan’s clothes.

Mu Qingyan’s eyes showed embarrassment, yet she did not resist, for she knew this was to heal her wounds.

At this moment, Sun Zhe had no time to admire the alluring beauty before him and instead took out silver needles to seal the various acupoints on Mu Qingyan’s body, forcibly blocking those broken meridians which were losing Primordial Qi.

After finishing all this, he suddenly took out a dagger from the Ring Space, intending to slash his own wrist.

Seeing this, Mu Qingyan quickly said, "What are you doing?"

At the same time, Little Dragon Girl asked the same question from the Ring Space: "Xiao Zhezi, what are you doing?"

Sun Zhe spoke to Little Dragon Girl in his mind: "Since I have the Undying Body, my Essence Blood should have some effect. Besides, my Pure Yang True Qi already has healing properties. To heal Qingyan quickly, this is the only way."

Little Dragon Girl was silent for a moment before saying, "I probably can’t stop you. Do what you think is best. By human standards, under normal circumstances, all the blood in the body can only condense into five drops of Essence Blood."

She continued, "And each drop of Essence Blood lost will cause significant damage to your Primordial Qi, taking a long time to recover. If more than three drops are lost at once, there is a risk to life."

Sun Zhe nodded, said no more, and directly slashed his wrist with the dagger.

At the same time, he also used himself as a forge, beginning to compress and refine all the blood in his body into Essence Blood.

Mu Qingyan clearly saw Sun Zhe’s intention, lightly shook her head to stop him, "Sun Zhe, don’t do this."

She naturally knew the value of Essence Blood, but she did not expect Sun Zhe to waste his own Essence Blood in such a simple and direct way.

Sun Zhe gave her a reassuring glance and smiled, "Don’t worry, Qingyan, I know what I’m doing. You risked everything for me, I can do the same."

Mu Qingyan’s beautiful eyes trembled, she closed her eyes and said no more.

Suddenly, she felt that this man knew what it meant to take risks for her.

...

A few minutes later.

A drop of deep red glowing blood slowly oozed from Sun Zhe’s wrist wound.

Upon contact with air, the blood did not flow like normal liquid but instead condensed into a pea-sized blood pearl, seemingly solid.

The blood pearl emitted an unusual scent, appearing like a gem; though small, one could sense powerful energy from it.

Sun Zhe endured the pain throughout his body and refined two drops of undying Essence Blood at once, feeding them to Mu Qingyan.

Within moments, Mu Qingyan’s complexion returned to normal, and Sun Zhe activated his Yin Yang X-ray Vision, unexpectedly discovering her broken meridians healing and reconstructing.

"Just as I expected, the Essence Blood of the Undying Body indeed has this effect."

Little Dragon Girl coldly snorted and muttered, "You are truly generous."

"Speaking like this," Sun Zhe earnestly said, "If Sister Long needed my Essence Blood, I would give it to her without hesitation as well."

"Oh, stop being so nauseating. I’m going to sleep now."

After ending the Divine Sense interaction with Little Dragon Girl, Sun Zhe looked at the stone bed where Mu Qingyan lay and gently asked, "Qingyan, how do you feel?"

Mu Qingyan opened her eyes, "My meridians are healed, your Essence Blood is truly miraculous."

Sun Zhe scratched his head, "You must have also noticed... my physique is special, I recover quickly from injuries."

Mu Qingyan pondered for a moment, then asked, "The Undying Body, right?"

"Yes."

Mu Qingyan advised, "Do not reveal it lightly."

"I understand," Sun Zhe nodded, suddenly furrowing his brow, looking at Mu Qingyan intently, "However, your Dao Foundation injuries are still unhealed, they seem even more severe."

Mu Qingyan replied, "Wen Dao Lotus’s Medicinal Power is depleted."

Sun Zhe directly took out a Wen Dao Lotus, "Then consume a few more petals."

In the blink of an eye.

After feeding Mu Qingyan several petals of the Wen Dao Lotus, Sun Zhe finally exhaled deeply, staggered to the side, and lay down to sleep.

After consuming two drops of Essence Blood at once, he felt completely drained, his body burning and exhausted, his head dizzy.

Moreover, he found that after consuming Essence Blood, even the Undying Body could not recover quickly and had to do so gradually.

He slept without knowing how long.

When Sun Zhe groggily awoke, he heard a soft humming in his ears.

Opening his eyes, he was startled to find Mu Qingyan lying atop him.

At this moment, Mu Qingyan seemed to have lost her senses or perhaps was completely immersed. She buried her face in Sun Zhe’s neck, softly murmured, occasionally nibbling on Sun Zhe’s ear.

Feeling the warm breath by his ear, Sun Zhe gradually felt heat rising within.

Simultaneously, he realized his Second-in-command had sunk into a tightly lubricated fiery mire, its softness and pressure seeming to steal his soul.

He instantly understood the situation, gently pushed Mu Qingyan on top of him, and asked, "Qingyan, what’s wrong with you?"

Mu Qingyan just discovered Sun Zhe had awakened, let out a startled cry, and immediately blushed, burying her face in his neck without speaking.

Sun Zhe gave a significant smile, stretched his hands to embrace her slender waist, and moved upwards.

He could guess that the Yang Qi of the Wen Dao Lotus was too strong, and Mu Qingyan found it unbearable after consuming it, hence climbed atop him while he slept to alleviate it.

Sun Zhe jested, "What’s this, the dignified Female Sword Immortal who fears nothing, yet now she’s bashful?"

"Don’t say that," Mu Qingyan bit lightly on his neck, her voice quiet as a mosquito.

Sun Zhe laughed heartily, suddenly pushed her away and sat up, "Caught you sneaking a feast while I slept, now see how I’ll deal with you."

Mu Qingyan let out a delicate cry, yet before she could react, her pristine jade body was pressed against the stone bed by Sun Zhe.
