The abnormal behavior of the woman around him attracted Xia Shang's attention.
Xia Shang hugged his trembling body tightly to his side, and gently brushed his cold face with his left hand: "I said, no matter what method is used or what price is paid, I will not let you leave me.
"
"Yes!" Xian'er responded sweetly, but the reluctance in her heart became even stronger.
I don't know when my closed eyes had faint traces of tears.
"Time is running out, isn't it?"
The young master's sudden question made Xian'er's delicate body tremble. After a long time, she managed to squeeze out a smile: "Young Master, it's okay, it's still early."
"How long? I need to know the specific time."
"Well...twenty days."
"I want to hear the truth!" Xia Shang asked again with a sullen face.
"Fifteen days..."
"Xian'er, are you going to lie to the young master too?"
"Seven...seven days."
"This is not real yet."
"Sir, why can't Xian'er hide anything in front of you?" Xian'er rubbed the corners of her eyes, not knowing whether she was laughing or crying, "There are only three days left, and we can't get the antidote within three days.
The poison will take effect."
"Is it only three days?" Xia Shang frowned when he heard this, "Don't worry, the young master has promised you that nothing will happen to you."
A wry smile appeared on the corner of Xian'er's mouth: "Young master, there is no need to comfort Xian'er like this. Xian'er knows her own situation best. Now Xian'er is a traitor to the White Clothes Sect, and they will not give Xian'er the antidote. In Xian'er's heart
, I just want to accompany the young master for three days, even if it is only three days, Xian'er will be happy to be with the young master."
Xia Shang frowned, holding her pretty face stained with tears seriously, and wiping her tears: "Don't say such silly things! If Dr. Zhuo can't do anything, then the young master will take you to the Baiyi Sect. There are many ways for the young master to help you."
They obediently handed over the antidote."
"Young Master, no! Xian'er will never allow Young Master to take risks for Xian'er. Moreover, only Xian'er himself knows the dangers in the White Clothes Sect. The Young Master has no one to rely on now, so he must not force his way into the White Clothes Sect."
At this moment, a clear female voice came from outside the courtyard: "Who said that Xia Shang has no one to rely on? Shuiyue Villa, Fairy Lingbo is willing to accompany this Xia man to the dragon's pond and tiger's den."
The sound outside appeared very suddenly, beyond Xia Shang's expectation.
But the voice was also very familiar. Xia Shang subconsciously shouted: "Yue Lingbo?"
Looking up after the sound, I saw a group of familiar girls in pink and white clothes standing neatly outside the fence of the small courtyard. The leader was Yue Lingbo, who was dressed in plain clothes!
The girls in the team pointed at Xia Shang and chattered non-stop.
Sun Rou introduced in a low voice from the side: "Look! That's Mr. Xia! Isn't he as beautiful as a flower?"
"Oh! It's true! We haven't seen such a good-looking man before."
"Tch, it sounds like you have seen a lot of men. You, girl, have only been out a few times. How many people have you seen? But this Mr. Xia is really good-looking! So handsome..."
"It's no wonder that even Senior Sister Yueru is quite enthusiastic about him."
Yueru stood behind Yue Lingbo and shouted: "You all should be quiet!"
"Sister, you see, Master seems to be very familiar with Mr. Xia."
"Of course, Mr. Xia is our great benefactor at Shuiyue Villa. He even saved the master!"
"Yue Ru." Yue Lingbo suddenly spoke.
Yueru quickly raised her hands and said seriously: "Master."
"You take the fellow apprentices and sisters back to the villa and inform Madam about the investigation in the capital. I want to stay and help Mr. Xia handle some things."
Yueru frowned slightly after hearing this, feeling quite puzzled.
Although Mr. Xia is a great benefactor of Shuiyue Villa, deliberately staying to help as a master seems to have compromised his identity. Moreover, in martial arts competitions, the master frequently helped him, even at the expense of the entire martial arts as an enemy.
It can be regarded as repaying his kindness for saving Shuiyue Villa. Why is Master still so enthusiastic about him?
Yueru looked at Master, and vaguely seemed to see a different emotion from that of a friend.
"Yueru, why are you still standing there?"
Yue Lingbo's low shout brought Yue Ru back to reality.
"Yes!" Yueru quickly handed over her hand, then turned around, "Everyone will return to the villa with me."
A group of junior sisters were still a little reluctant to leave, and turned back step by step.
Seeing the female disciples from Shuiyue Villa leaving, Xia Shang led Xian'er to Yue Lingbo. He said with a smile across a fence, "Lingbo, why did you come to the capital?"
"Lingbo?" Yue Lingbo glanced at Xia Shang's hand holding Xian'er's hand, "Master Xia, are you so familiar with every woman? To call a master with such an intimate title as Lingbo,
Aren’t you afraid of flashing your neck?”
"Whether you are a master or a mortal, as long as you are my Xia Shang's friend, you are my Xia Shang's relative. Especially for a girl as elegant and refined as Fairy Lingbo. Naturally, you need to be closer. Besides, Lingbo, you don't have those around you.
Female disciples, why do you have to put on such a high airs? Don’t you feel tired if you have been doing this for a long time?"
Yue Lingbo glared at Xia Shang, but he had to deny that everything Xia Shang said was correct and very warm. A feeling of joy of meeting old friends came from his heart. After glaring, his face became cold.
When the frost is gone, it smiles like daffodils blooming.
"I've seen this girl before. She risked her life to protect you in a martial arts competition."
Xia Shang smiled: "My wife, Luo Xian'er."
When Xian'er heard this, her face turned red and she muttered in a low voice: "We haven't passed the exam yet!"
Yue Lingbo glanced at Xian'er for a second, then turned to Xia Shang: "I heard earlier that you were going on an adventure? What's the matter? It just so happens that my affairs have been taken care of. How about I, the master, act as Mr. Xia's thug?"
"The grandmaster is a thug..." Xia Shang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I'm afraid there is no one in the world who has such a great reputation. Regarding my wife's matter, I have already made arrangements myself. There is no danger. I am going to ask the white-clothed sect to replace me.
medicine."
"Change?" Yue Lingbo was confused.
"I don't believe that a small antidote is more important than the Book of Heaven."
"The Book of Heaven!" Yue Lingbo was shocked, "You have the Book of Heaven? Are you going to use the Book of Heaven...are you crazy?"
Xia Shang was very calm: "Nothing in the world is more important than my woman."
As he said that, Xia Shang looked at Xian'er lovingly. At this time, Xian'er's eyes were filled with tears, and a word was stuck in her throat but she couldn't say it.
Yue Lingbo was also quite shocked. He was silent for a long time and said lightly: "You are still a man."
Suddenly, Zhuo Yuan's voice came from behind: "Sir, what are you talking about? The Book of Heaven? Who has the Book of Heaven?"
Xia Shang winked and then turned back: "No, no, it's just a discussion. Doctor Zhuo, I have something else to trouble you." (To be continued)
