Chapter 173: Your Disciple Almost Became My Sister-in-Law!
The atmosphere in the cave was very strange. Yun Yun was covered with a garment, her blood-stained hands holding it close to her chest.
Xiao Ze still wore his cloak and hood.
Yun Yun looked at Xiao Ze from a short distance away, her expression complicated.
She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
This mysterious man had removed her inner armor and seen her naked.
But he had done it to heal her. Seeing the bloodied armor and the dozens of metal fragments beside her, Yun Yun knew she owed her life to this mysterious man.
In reality, Yun Yun had regained some consciousness when Xiao Ze gave her the medicinal pills and they began to take effect.
In her semi-conscious state, Yun Yun could feel Xiao Ze applying an ointment to her wounds with extreme care, using a jade instrument.
Performing the tasks so meticulously, she couldn't reproach him for anything.
As for seeing her naked, the metal fragments beside her proved what he had done.
If he hadn't removed those metal fragments from her wounds before applying the medicine, it could have caused her great harm.
Thinking about this, Yun Yun sighed softly and said to Xiao Ze, "Thank you for saving me, young man."
Under the hood, Xiao Ze slightly raised an eyebrow, remembering the exchange of glances he had with Yun Yun.
After all, the hood wasn't a mask, and from Yun Yun's lying position, she could see his face.
"In the Jia Ma Empire, strong Dou Huangs can be counted on one hand, and among them, there is only one woman. You are the master of the Blue Cloud Sect, Yun Yun."
Hearing Xiao Ze reveal her identity, Yun Yun was a little surprised and then said:
"Don't worry, I will remember that you saved me. If there is something you want and that I can give you, I will try to fulfill it."
Yun Yun thought Xiao Ze had mentioned her identity to ask for a reward.
She didn't mind the idea, as it was normal for someone to expect something in return for their help.
No one would do a favor without expecting something in return.
Even though Xiao Ze had seen her naked, he didn't seem to have any bad intentions.
Even in such sensitive areas, he had used the jade instrument to apply the medicine.
If it had been any other man, he probably wouldn't have been able to resist the temptation to touch her.
Thinking about this, a slight blush appeared on Yun Yun's face, feeling fortunate that it was him who helped her.
"It's not necessary. What you could offer probably wouldn't interest me."
Xiao Ze said softly, "Besides, you and I have a small connection."
Xiao Ze's first words made Yun Yun feel a bit indignant.
As the leader of the most prominent sect in the Jia Ma Empire, how could she not have something that could interest a young man?
But Xiao Ze's next words aroused her curiosity.
She didn't remember having had contact with this extremely attractive young man. Otherwise, she would remember him.
"If it weren't for a special circumstance, your disciple Nalan Yanran would have become my sister-in-law."
These words immediately made Yun Yun recall what Nalan Yanran had told her before, about a young Dou Huang from the Xiao family.
It was the presence of this young Dou Huang that had broken Nalan Yanran's arrogance.
Yun Yun had noticed the changes in Nalan Yanran and had welcomed them.
Recognizing that there is always someone stronger was beneficial for Nalan Yanran's future training.
And Yun Yun was also interested in meeting this young Dou Huang, although she hadn't had the opportunity.
She never thought she would find him this way.
If Xiao Ze was the young Dou Huang, then it made sense that she couldn't offer him something that would tempt him.
Not to mention that the medicinal pills he used to treat her were of high quality.
It was likely that the young man before her had more wealth than she did.
Both fell silent.
Yun Yun had complex thoughts, and Xiao Ze petted the multicolored snake, not knowing what to say.
After a while, Yun Yun broke the silence.
"Let me formally introduce myself, I am Yun Yun, master of the Blue Cloud Sect."
Xiao Ze didn't think much and responded, "I am Xiao Ze, an elder of the Canaan Academy."
Hearing this, Yun Yun was surprised. An elder of the Canaan Academy at such a young age?
The Canaan Academy was an ancient and prestigious institution across the continent.
But she quickly remembered that Xiao Ze was a young Dou Huang.
After the formal introduction, they both fell silent again. Xiao Ze threw several bottles of medicine and said:
"I'll leave now. Keeping that wound covered won't help in your recovery."
"The pills in the bottles, take them when the medicine in your body has dissolved."
"And the ointment, once it's no longer warm, you can wash it off and apply it again."
After giving these instructions, Xiao Ze left the cave, petting the head of the small multicolored snake.
He found that this small snake was quite amusing, with a pleasant texture to the touch and a very beautiful appearance.
"In the heart of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, there are many medicinal herbs. It's a good time to gather and fill my stock."
Xiao Ze moved his fingers and concentrated the water element into a water bullet, shooting it at a magical beast in the distance.
With his current level, even the simplest water could easily kill a magical beast below five levels.
In the eastern area of the range, there was only one sixth-level magical beast and three fifth-level ones. They were not seen nearby.
After clearing some magical beasts, he left a soul mark and went to collect herbs.
In the cave, Yun Yun removed the black garment Xiao Ze had put on her.
The wounds on her chest no longer bled, and the ointment still emitted a slight warmth.
The medicine in her body was still taking effect. She looked at the bottles of medicine next to her with a complex expression.
She had mixed feelings towards Xiao Ze, due to his relationship with Nalan Yanran.
In the Jia Ma Empire, master-disciple relationships were very important.
Given her age, her relationship with Yanran was both master-student and sisterly.
Yanran had almost become Xiao Ze's sister-in-law.
But now she had an intimate connection with him, making her think about the future.
Although Xiao Ze probably hadn't even reached adulthood yet...
Soon, Yun Yun felt the ointment on her chest cooling, bringing her back to reality.
Using a handkerchief, she wiped off the ointment and looked at her bloodstained hands.
She took the jade instrument Xiao Ze had used and applied the ointment to her chest.
Due to the limited visibility, she couldn't see some places.
Recalling Xiao Ze's meticulous application while she was half-conscious, her face turned red.
After half a day, Yun Yun still hadn't seen Xiao Ze return, and she began to worry.
"Don't tell me he left..."
She murmured to herself, feeling somewhat lonely. Her strength was sealed and she was severely injured, making her prone to negative thoughts.
"Was I too cold with him?"
