“Mm~”
The sensual moan rippled through the room like water, creating layer after layer of waves.
Bai Qingran’s face was flushed crimson.
His body was steaming with pink heat.
His eyes were slightly rolled back and an unconscious tongue slipped out.
In the end, he could no longer control himself and collapsed onto the bed with a thud.
The alluring curve formed by his back and hips made Lin Rou, who was sitting at the bedside, unable to stop herself from swallowing.
“Immortal Lord Bai, today’s treatment will stop here. Your body is weak. You cannot rush.”
“Alright…”
Bai Qingran turned his head to the side.
An extremely difficult smile appeared on his incomparably beautiful face.
The bedsheet beneath him was in disarray.
His snow-white hair was soaked with sweat and traced a fatal arc across his face.
This was simply like a poisoned, curved hook that directly pierced Lin Rou’s heart, making her almost unable to restrain herself from pressing Bai Qingran down onto the bed right then and there and wantonly releasing her long-suppressed desire.
No wonder Chu Mo acted recklessly.
No wonder she herself had developed evil thoughts.
This fox demon was too seductive.
Every movement, every frown and smile, was tempting out the deepest greed in a woman’s soul.
Bai Qingran, you really are a natural plaything that makes people unable to stop.
However, Bai Qingran, today I will obtain everything I want.
After discovering Bai Qingran’s wariness toward her, Lin Rou had already changed her strategy.
Under the name of Xuan Phoenix Sacred Sect, she said that Chu Mo had gone too far.
Although the Demon Core could not be restored, she wanted to do her best to treat Bai Qingran’s body.
These words sounded high-sounding, but only Lin Rou herself knew the calculations hidden behind them.
She picked up the clean white handkerchief beside Bai Qingran and, with extreme tenderness, gently wiped the sweat from his face.
“Immortal Lord Bai, you can soak in the medicinal liquid later. Just endure a little longer. These injuries… sigh, they are truly too severe, and they have been dragged out for too long.”
***
His entire body immersed in the warm medicinal liquid, Bai Qingran let out a comfortable moan.
He looked at the hot steam swirling around him.
His pair of red pupils gradually filled with cold contemplation.
After spending so many days with Lin Rou, Bai Qingran still could not figure her out.
She could be said to be good to him in every possible way, gentle and kind as if she were a standard template of an elder.
This flawless perfection made Bai Qingran feel an indescribable strangeness in his heart.
Splash.
The light green medicinal liquid was poured back into the bath bucket from Bai Qingran’s hands.
At first, he had been doubtful about letting her treat his injuries.
However, Lin Rou had acted too openly.
She had written the prescription for him to see and refined the medicine right in front of him, as if…
She was telling him at every moment that not only did she not want to harm him, she wanted to pour all her kindness onto him.
But what exactly did Lin Rou want?
Bai Qingran stared at the ceiling shrouded in steam.
His intuition told him that what Lin Rou wanted to obtain was definitely not just the medical skills in his hands.
However, the deeper things—he could not guess.
Another splash sounded.
Bai Qingran stood up from the bath bucket.
Suddenly, he felt a wave of dizziness.
An overwhelming fatigue surged through his entire body.
Something was wrong! What was going on today?! Bai Qingran was greatly alarmed.
He looked at the medicinal liquid in the bucket in panic.
Could Lin Rou have done something to it?! No, that was impossible.
After she finished refining the medicinal liquid, she had handed it over to him for safekeeping.
Then…
This strange and intense discomfort set off alarm bells in Bai Qingran’s heart.
He forced himself to put on his clothes and walked out of the bathroom.
The moment he stepped out, he ran straight into Lin Rou.
“Aiyo, Immortal Lord Bai, why did you come out without drying yourself?”
Xiao Tao, who heard Lin Rou’s words from the side, quickly ran over with a towel.
However, Lin Rou very naturally took it from her hands.
She embraced Bai Qingran and gently wiped the water droplets from his hair one by one.
This scene was like a large, fat Venus flytrap that had already prepared to start enjoying its prey the moment it sensed it had entered.
“Peak Master Lin, my body… feels wrong…”
Bai Qingran’s voice was weak and strained.
He wanted to push Lin Rou away, but his hands went limp and powerless between their close bodies.
If an outsider saw this action, it would actually carry a hint of pink ambiguity.
Feeling the warm, soft jade in her arms, Lin Rou almost burst out laughing.
In front of a fox demon who had no spiritual power at all, what could a Spirit Emperor Stage powerhouse not do if she wanted to?
“Immortal Lord Bai, be good. I will help you back to your room first and examine your body. If there is nothing wrong, then you should sleep for a while, alright?”
“Mm…”
His mind grew increasingly muddled.
Bai Qingran only felt the world spinning around him.
Half-pushing and half-yielding, he was embraced by Lin Rou and sent back to the bedroom.
After Bai Qingran lay down, Lin Rou pretended to examine him.
Not long after, Lin Rou said gently, “Immortal Lord Bai, it is because the treatments have been too frequent recently. Your body could not withstand it. This kind of reaction is very normal. Let us stop for a few days. Immortal Lord Bai, please rest well.”
After speaking, Lin Rou slowly withdrew from the bedroom.
Only after she saw the door close did Bai Qingran finally release the breath he had been holding.
He could no longer endure the drowsiness in his body and sank into a deep sleep.
Bai Qingran would never know that the moment the door closed, Lin Rou’s eyes flashed with a twisted, pathological light.
The words she had just spoken were naturally nonsense.
She could no longer endure the greedy thoughts that were crashing around inside her heart.
Every minute spent with Bai Qingran was a great temptation and torment for her.
She had finally decided to take the first bite.
“Xiao Tao, come here.”
Suppressing the restlessness in her heart, Lin Rou spoke in her usual tone.
“Peak Master Lin.” Xiao Tao spoke timidly.
“You are the one who spends the most time with him. I want to ask, has Immortal Lord Bai said anything recently? There are some things he might find difficult to say to me directly, but I truly want to help Immortal Lord Bai.”
Lin Rou’s tone was sincere, but every word stepped on Xiao Tao’s soft spots.
“This…”
For a moment, Xiao Tao felt her throat go dry and choked.
She should obey Chu Mo, but Chu Mo had now been taken away by the Sect Master.
Bai Qingran treated her extremely well.
Although she was powerless, she genuinely wanted to help Bai Qingran from the bottom of her heart.
At first, she had indeed held some opinions about Lin Rou, but during this period Lin Rou’s actions had also been genuinely for Bai Qingran’s sake.
The Peak Master of Yao Furnace Peak personally treating him—this was an opportunity that countless people could not even beg for.
“Lin… Peak Master Lin, Young Master Bai, he… he told me… he wants to leave Xuan Phoenix Sacred Sect. Young Master Bai was first imprisoned by Senior Sister Chu, and now he is locked here by the Sect Master. He is too pitiful. Please, Peak Master Lin, help Young Master Bai.”
As she spoke, Xiao Tao’s voice carried a hint of crying.
“Xiao Tao, are you willing to let Immortal Lord Bai leave Xuan Phoenix Sacred Sect?”
This sentence from Lin Rou came out of nowhere.
“I…”
In an instant, all kinds of complicated expressions surged onto Xiao Tao’s face.
Was she willing?
She was not.
Bai Qingran was one of the few people who was truly kind to her.
However, her own thoughts should never be forced onto Young Master Bai.
In the end, her expression turned into deep sorrow.
“I am not willing, but Young Master Bai’s happiness is the most important.”
“Is that so…”
Looking at the blind Xiao Tao, the corner of Lin Rou’s mouth hooked into a cruel, cold smile.
In her heart, she felt even more disdain.
So, someone like you does not even deserve to drink the soup.
“Xiao Tao, you are a good child. I will go plead with the Sect Master for Immortal Lord Bai. But… the chances are not high. I will do my best.”
“Mm…”
Xiao Tao lowered her head.
She understood how difficult this matter was.
After all, it was Nalan Qingjue who had personally taken action.
Her skirt was crumpled in her small hands.
She felt somewhat unwilling.
A person as good as Bai Qingran could only be a prisoner.
After a long while, Bai Qingran had already fallen asleep.
A certain space in his room twisted for no reason and Lin Rou’s figure quietly appeared.
She first used a formation to completely isolate this room from the outside world.
Then she slowly walked to Bai Qingran’s bedside and sat down.
Lin Rou used her fingertips to lightly touch Bai Qingran’s beautiful face, sliding down bit by bit along his brows and eyes, slowly tracing the soul-stirring lines on it.
Finally, her fingers stopped on his tender, moist red lips.
At this moment, Lin Rou’s eyes were filled with intoxicated desire.
Red, like a winter plum blossom blooming in the snow.
“Hahahaha, finally. I have finally obtained you.”
After adapting, her voice became sticky like a strangling venomous snake.
“Bai Qingran, you are not obedient. You are guarded against me. You want to escape from me. Why… is it because I have not been good to you? Fool, I will not let you go. You are mine.”
This sounded like the murmurings of an extremely loving couple, yet it was the most vicious selfishness in this world.
***
The dust had settled.
Lin Rou took the clean white handkerchief beside Bai Qingran and wiped.
Large patches of red paint seemed to have been splashed onto the white wall.
After restoring everything to its original state, Lin Rou’s eyes were filled with pathological tenderness.
She reluctantly kissed Bai Qingran once more, picked up the handkerchief, and quietly left.
Speaking of which, Lin Rou supposed she should also go treat Chu Mo’s injuries as well.
