the real one might still be out there""I'm worried about that too," said Huang Anping with a nod. "But I've ordered all SWAT officers to evacuate the building. From now on, we'll take over and handle...Chapter 1324 Working Together
"Long-Legged Girl, cooperation means working together. How can we be far from each other If I stay away from you and something happens to you, how will you help me" Xia Tian shook his head and said, "Therefore, we definitely need to stick together. Only by staying together can we take them down one by one."
Seeing Night Yu Mei's seemingly angry expression, Xia Tian added, "Hey, Long-Legged Girl, I told you before that if you're willing to help me, there will be many benefits, like treating your injuries first."
"You’re willing to help me repair my damaged golden丹dan" Night Yu Mei asked in a cold tone, but she seemed surprised.
"If you keep listening and cooperating, I might consider helping you repair your golden丹dan," Xia Tian said with a grin. Clearly, he didn't plan to repair her golden丹dan immediately. "Your injuries aren’t just about the damaged golden丹dan; there are also old and new wounds in your internal organs. Oh, they seem even worse now. Besides, the yin fire inside you hasn’t been completely resolved either. Although a few months ago you sent all that yin fire into Stingy Wife’s body almost freezing her to death, it keeps appearing within you, affecting your health significantly. Long-Legged Girl, am I right"
No denial was made by Night Yu Mei, but she didn’t refute either, which tacitly admitted Xia Tian's statement. In reality, denying wouldn't be useful as Xia Tian’s medical skills and strength could indeed clearly see her physical condition.
"I can heal your internal injuries first. If you behave well afterward, I'll also address the issue of your yin fire. As for fixing your Golden Core damage, I can help with that once I take care of all those people from the Vast Profound Immortal Sect."
Night Yu Mei glared coldly at Xia Tian. What most appealed to her about this offer wasn't so much the promise of repairing her Golden Core as it was having a solution for her yin fire problem, which she knew would be impossible to solve on her own even if she returned to Immortal Cloud Continent. Unless she found herself a man willing to cultivate together with her, but that repulsed her.
"I always keep my word," Xia Tian suddenly grabbed Night Yu Mei's arm and said, "Come on, let’s move somewhere else first so I can heal your internal injuries. We shouldn’t stay here too long; Huang Jingyi will likely come back with reinforcements."
With that, Xia Tian flew off in the opposite direction to where Huang Jingyi had fled. After about ten minutes, they landed on the rooftop of a high-rise building.
It was around three in the morning now, so the rooftop would be deserted and undisturbed. To Xia Tian, it was an ideal place for needle insertion.
Xia Tian took out his silver needles and attempted to insert them into Night Yu Mei, but he soon realized that even with his increased strength, the needles couldn't penetrate her clothing.
"Hey, long-legged girl, can you take off that clothes" Summer was a bit dissatisfied. "My silver needles can't penetrate them; how am I supposed to treat your injuries then"
"Tell me which acupuncture points need the needle insertion," Night Jade Beauty naturally wouldn’t undress, as this piece of clothing was her last resort.
"Alright." Summer didn’t argue about it either. After all, he truly wanted to heal Night Jade Beauty’s injuries at that moment; she wouldn’t put her heart into helping him if she wasn’t given any benefits in return, and right now, he needed her to be more capable as well. Of course, she couldn't be too powerful. In summary, treating Night Jade Beauty's injuries was actually helping himself for Summer.
Summer reported the positions of a few acupuncture points, but before seeing what Night Jade Beauty did, he realized that the silver needles could really penetrate those points now.
While healing Night Jade Beauty’s wounds, Summer pondered whether her clothes had any relation to Fairy Sister's white robe. He still couldn’t take off Fairy Sister’s clothes until this moment, and Night Jade Beauty’s clothes were also quite peculiar; although he hadn't deliberately tried to remove them before, there was a feeling in him that if he wanted to take it off, it wouldn’t be easy.
The injuries inside Night Jade Beauty's body were actually not light. Particularly some of the injuries had been lingering for over twenty years and were internal organ injuries as well. On top of that, she also harbored chaotic yin fire and other true energy within her body which made everything inside her body a mess; so healing it truly wasn’t an easy task either. Of course, if he directly used the Fourth Heaven-Reversing Needle to cleanse her meridians and marrow, all those old and new injuries would be instantly healed in one go. However, Summer didn't want to give Night Jade Beauty such a great benefit at this moment; hence, he still treated her wounds with more common methods, which made his treatment time appear longer—over half an hour had passed yet the treatment hadn’t concluded.
Summer didn't put away her silver needle until four in the morning and took a breath, saying, "Alright, long-legged girl. Not only have I healed your injuries, but I've also temporarily suppressed your yin fire. Now, except for your Golden Core not being repaired yet, everything else is fine."
"Should we go find Huang Jingyi now" Night Yuimei's tone was still cold, but she knew that Summer wasn't lying to her. Her current physical condition was the best it had been since arriving here, even though she hadn't fully recovered her cultivation level yet. Even if she faced Huang Jingyi alone, she wouldn’t be completely without a chance of victory.
"Let's go back to the hotel first; I still have some stuff there." Summer thought for a moment and said, "Mm-hmm, that Huang Jingyi took you from the hotel. She must have followed us around for a while. Now she might be leading her accomplices over there to find us!"
"If she has help, we'd better stay far away from them. Otherwise, even if it's just the two of us working together, we probably won’t be able to kill any of them." Night Yuimei’s tone was still cold, but she was seriously discussing with Summer how to deal with the people from the Illusory Immortal Sect. On one hand, those people also wanted to kill her, and on the other hand, she hoped to find out where the path back home is from Huang Jingyi and her group.
"No problem; we can run if we can't beat them." Summer didn’t care about it. They could take down one person when they met them but flee if there were two. Since Huang Jingyi had acted alone before, she would inevitably be left alone again in the future.
Despite it being around four o'clock in the morning, Moonfall Lake Hotel was still far from quiet; in fact, the entire hotel was a cacophony of noise. Many police cars were parked outside, and even bomb disposal units were stationed at the entrance. Inside the hotel, many guests were arguing loudly, but no one seemed to be trying to calm them down on the hotel's part.
Two hours ago, there were explosions in two rooms here, but surprisingly, those two rooms were unoccupied. Instead, a girl was killed in another adjacent guest room, and it is said that there was another female guest staying in the same room. Now this other woman has seemingly vanished without a trace, with no one knowing if she is alive or dead.
Tian Boheng and all the members of the Major Cases Team are here too, but they do not handle this case now; it seems that the Narcotics Squad has taken over. This strikes Tian Boheng as odd, but since this is an order from above, there's nothing he can do about it.
Of course, Tian Boheng hasn’t left either. The reason for him staying here is that Xia Tian and Hu Feifei are both staying at the hotel, which falls under his jurisdiction. Even Tian Hao cannot argue with this justification and can only let Tian Boheng stay.
Although the Narcotics Squad claims that the explosion is related to drugs and firmly states that the girl who was killed was merely an innocent victim, Tian Boheng clearly understands that it isn’t a mere accident nor has anything to do with drugs. The other side simply wanted to eliminate her as a witness. Right now, his only concern is whether Hu Feifei and Xia Tian have also been eliminated
Xia Tian was unaware that anyone could be concerned about his safety; he had just returned to the hotel quietly despite it having already exploded.
"That Huang Jingyi actually didn’t find any backup to come look for us. That’s really strange. Does she not have any support" Xia Tian said to himself.
"Someone is in the restroom."
Sie Yi (Night Jade Beauty) coldly said.
"Oh, I know. It's Hu Feifei," Xia Tian casually remarked and then shouted towards the restroom, "Hey, come out!"
The restroom door opened, and a person came out; it was indeed Hu Feifei.
Hu Feifei seemed fine but appeared quite nervous. Upon seeing Xia Tian, she seemed to calm down slightly.
"Why are you hiding here" Xia Tian asked in some puzzlement.
"Team Leader Xia, I was looking for you and found that you weren’t around. When I tried calling you, I realized your phone wasn't with you. I didn’t dare return to my room or go out because I feared they might try to assassinate me again. Seeing your luggage here, I thought you would come back, so I waited here," Hu Feifei quickly explained her reason for being there. If each one of them spits once, this entire car dealership would be flooded with their spit."Huang Anping clearly didn't believe her. As a minor celebrity at best, it was hard to imagine she could ha...
