Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Chapter 41 Idiot, you don't even dare to steal a kiss?

"This idiot, you've been staring at me for so long, can't you even steal a kiss?"

Ma Xiaotao's eyelids twitched slightly, and she was somewhat speechless.

She had actually been awake for a few minutes and could sense that Ye Chen was right next to her.

But Ye Chen was only focused on playing with her hand and didn't even dare to steal a kiss, which really disappointed her...

Finally, Ma Xiaotao couldn't bear it any longer. She gently moved her fingers and slowly opened her eyes.

"Sister Xiaotao, you're awake! How are you feeling?" Ye Chen asked with concern as soon as he saw Ma Xiaotao wake up.

"Yes, I'm fine..." Ma Xiaotao looked up and smiled slightly at Ye Chen.

For some reason, Ye Chen always felt that there was a hint of resentment in Ma Xiaotao's eyes when she looked at him.
"It's good that you're alright." Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief; perhaps it was just his imagination.

"By the way, why did I change my clothes?"

Ma Xiaotao quickly realized her situation; she was only wearing a hospital gown, with nothing underneath, and it was quite cool, clearly...

"Yes, I changed it."

Ye Chen said in a serious tone.

Ma Xiaotao: ...

"Ugh... Why are you like this..."

Ma Xiaotao blushed and pulled the blanket over her face.

"Waaaaah... This guy is so indecent... Waaaaah, he must have seen everything... No, he has to take responsibility for me..."

Ma Xiaotao's heart was pounding wildly, but strangely, she wasn't angry. Instead, she felt a little embarrassed, and a hint of joy that she didn't know where it came from...

Moreover, Ye Chen saved her before she lost consciousness, which can be considered a perk for Ye Chen...

"Uh, Sister Xiaotao, I was just kidding. It was Senior Sister Ling who changed it for you." Seeing Ma Xiaotao's reaction, Ye Chen stopped joking and quickly explained.

"What did you say?"

Ma Xiaotao suddenly jumped out of bed, glaring angrily at Ye Chen.

She wasn't angry just now, but she's getting a little angry now.

Stupid Ye Chen, you didn't even seize such a good opportunity! Damn it, you're so stupid!
"Um... it was Senior Ling who changed it for you, I really didn't see it." Ye Chen naturally didn't know what Ma Xiaotao was thinking, and thought that Ma Xiaotao was angry because of this, so he quickly explained.

"Humph!"

Ma Xiaotao rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, snorted, and then shrank into the quilt with her back to Ye Chen, clearly feeling somewhat annoyed and disappointed.

What's the point of Ling Luochen changing clothes? That scoundrel might have even secretly grabbed a couple of handfuls.

It would be better to have Ye Chen come; having Ye Chen come would actually strengthen the bond between the two of them...

Pity……

"Ah..." Ye Chen scratched his head. He really couldn't figure out Ma Xiaotao's thoughts. How could she change her expression so quickly?

However, he didn't care. Instead, he condensed a "Seed of Life" and gently patted Ma Xiaotao's shoulder, saying, "Sister Xiaotao, it's time to take your medicine."

"Hmm...no need, I'm almost better. I'll just go back and find a healing-type Soul Master to treat me." Ma Xiaotao waved her hand gently.

For such internal and external injuries, a healing-type Soul Master's Soul Skill is more powerful than any elixir or precious medicine.

Only for some incurable hidden injuries is medicine more effective than soul skills.

She knew her own injuries well; they were all superficial wounds. The healing-type Soul Masters here weren't good enough, so she'd be fine back at Shrek Academy.

"Sister Xiaotao, this is a life-saving medicine given to me by my family. It works very well."

Ye Chen sighed and offered an explanation.

"Hmm?" Ma Xiaotao turned her head at this moment and saw a bright green pill in Ye Chen's hand.

The pill was only the size of a grain of rice, but it emitted a faint green light and was full of vitality. Even just looking at it made Ma Xiaotao feel that her injuries were healing faster.

Her eye for talent was naturally very sharp; she could tell at a glance that this pill was extraordinary and definitely a top-tier precious medicine!

Although most healing pills are far inferior to the soul skills of healing-type soul masters, some pills made with extremely rare natural treasures can not only rival the effects of powerful healing-type soul masters, but also have great benefits to the soul master's body.

Clearly, Ye Chen's pill belongs to the latter category!
Although Ye Chen came from a family of doctors, Ma Xiaotao was certain that this life-saving pill was extremely precious even within Ye Chen's family.

"No, my injuries are almost healed. It would be a waste to give me this pill." Ma Xiaotao quickly waved her hand and pushed the "Seed of Life" back into Ye Chen's hand.

"Not precious, I have hundreds of these pills already~" Ye Chen said casually.

"Huh? Hundreds of them??"

Ma Xiaotao opened her mouth, somewhat bewildered.

Are life-saving pills really that cheap now?
"good chance!"

Upon seeing this, Ye Chen immediately flipped his hand and stuffed the pill in his hand into Ma Xiaotao's mouth.

The life force melted upon entering her mouth, instantly exploding into pure life energy that began to nourish her body.

Although Ma Xiaotao's skin has fully recovered, a large amount of flesh and blood has been removed from her back, requiring a considerable amount of time to heal.

At this moment, nourished by the powerful vitality, the depression on Ma Xiaotao's back became fuller at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just over ten seconds, Ma Xiaotao's back injury was completely healed, and her skin even seemed to have become more radiant and healthier.

"Ugh...this!!!"

Ma Xiaotao's beautiful eyes widened instantly, clearly not expecting Ye Chen's pills to be so effective!

Such powerful healing energy is probably comparable to the full-force healing of a Soul Saint-level healing-type Soul Master!

After all, she was a Soul Emperor, and the same injury would be much more difficult to treat. Ye Chen's pills not only healed her injuries, but also made her look younger and more energetic.

"Sister Xiaotao, how are you feeling?" Ye Chen noticed Ma Xiaotao's expression and quickly asked.

He also wanted to know the efficacy of his "Seed of Life" so that it would be easier to create a standard in the future, injecting different lifespans according to the injuries, thus avoiding waste.

"Hundan!!"

Ma Xiaotao suddenly looked up at Ye Chen, then grabbed him and pinned him down, roughly ravaging him: "Are you trying to die? How could you waste such a precious pill like this!"

Ma Xiaotao rubbed Ye Chen's face hard, clearly furious.

She wasn't stupid. This level of pill was absolutely the best of the best. How could there possibly be hundreds of them!

This must be a life-saving medicine given to Ye Chen by his family elders. Without a healing-type Soul Master, this kind of pill is really like a second life. Ye Chen only has one or two at most.

Ye Chen, however, gave her the precious pill without hesitation...

As Ma Xiaotao spoke, she couldn't help but burst into tears...

They were clearly deeply moved.

"Sister Tao, why are you crying?"

Ye Chen grinned and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Ma Xiaotao's eyes.

At this moment, Ma Xiaotao was wearing a hospital gown, but the gown was probably too small, and several buttons on the chest had popped open.

From Ye Chen's gentlemanly perspective...

Basically, everything is visible at a glance.
