Just when she wanted to take another look at the wounds on other parts of his body.

Her hand was just caught by Nangong Jue. Jiang Xue was only looking at his injuries and didn't notice that Nangong Jue had already woken up.

I also caught the surprise in her eyes.

If anyone else saw it, he would definitely kill that person without hesitation, but the person in front of him was her. On the contrary, she knew that Nangong Jue even smiled at her happily.

"Are you okay? You might have been poisoned. How could you still laugh?" Jiang Xue frowned as she looked at Nangong Jue who sat up from her bed.

"It's nothing. I feel a strong and burning force surging in my body. What on earth did you give me to eat?" Nangong Jue stared at Jiang Xue and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Jiang Xue shrugged her shoulders and replied nonchalantly, "Oh, it's just refining the Red Flame Fruit into Red Flame Pill. The effect is definitely much better than just the Red Flame Fruit!"

“That’s it…” Hearing this, Nangong Jue couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

How could this clever little girl understand how destructive the word "that's it" is?

You know, Jiang Xue is only 15 years old now, but she has already become a remarkable fifth-grade alchemist!

Back then, her master had spent his entire life trying to reach the level of a ninth-grade alchemist. Although the difficulty of subsequent level upgrades would increase with the improvement of her cultivation, with Jiang Xue's amazing talent and potential, she would definitely return to the peak in the future.

At this moment, Nangong Jue stared at Jiang Xue in front of him, his eyes full of love and affection.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xue suddenly felt something strange. She realized that Nangong Jue's gaze seemed to penetrate her and see another woman.

Instantly, a chill surged into her heart, causing goose bumps to appear all over her body.

That smile was too weird, as if it was a fake smile, which was frightening. Instead of that, it would be better not to smile, which would make people feel more at ease.

Although Jiang Xue was still curious about the wounds on his body, since he didn't say anything and it was someone else's secret, she didn't dare to ask.

"Since you are fine and the poison is cured, you can go!" Jiang Xue walked towards the bedroom door, opened it and said.

"I'm not well yet, let me stay for a few more days!" Nangong Jue said shamelessly.

He couldn't have suffered this injury in vain. He got hurt on purpose so that he would have the chance to stick to her.

Otherwise, he could kill the old man in one move. If he showed too much strength, what would Jiang Xue do when she was hiding from him?

"What do you want to do?" Jiang Xue looked at him with narrowed eyes.

This man is so weird. He has nothing to do, but he still wants to stay here. How shameless.

"It's nothing. Do you need someone to warm your bed? I can warm your bed for you!" Nangong Jue said shamelessly.

At this moment, Jiang Xue's face was as black as the bottom of a pot!

Jiang Xue slowly approached Nangong Jue with a faint smile in her eyes.

"What did you say?" Jiang Xue said through gritted teeth.

"I said, you lack..." Suddenly, he was kicked out of the yard by Jiang Xue.

Nangong Jue's shadow guards hiding in the dark were all shocked when they saw this and hid their faces.

This was the first time they saw their master being so shameless, and he was kicked out of the room by the woman.

If other women knew about this, they would definitely tear Jiang Xue apart.

“No, why are you…” Nangong Jue was about to say something while touching his butt.

Then I heard a loud door closing sound.

"She seems to be back, but her temperament seems different from ten thousand years ago." Nangong Jue thought to himself.

Ten thousand years ago, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing gently.

"Ajue, come and play chess with me!"

A clear and pleasant call was heard, like a yellow oriole singing in a valley.

A woman came over gracefully, wearing a white dress that dragged on the ground, with a slim figure and light steps. This woman was Jiang Xue, with a gentle smile on her face and her beautiful eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars.

At this moment, Nangong Jue was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, sipping tea leisurely.

Hearing Jiang Xue's call, he slowly put down the cup in his hand, raised his head, and looked at the approaching beauty with a smile on his lips.

Jiang Xue is truly stunningly beautiful, her every frown and smile is heart-touching;

Every movement she makes seems so elegant and noble, and every gesture she makes exudes a unique charm and temperament.

Nangong Jue's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the moment when he talked with Jiang Xue just now. He clearly remembered the action Jiang Xue made at that time - so free and easy, decisive and without any hesitation.

If time could go back ten thousand years, Jiang Xue would definitely not have behaved like this.

She used to be so gentle and graceful, and was always cautious in everything; but now she seems to have been reborn, becoming strong and courageous.

What exactly happened during these ten thousand years?

Nangong Jue couldn't help but fall into deep thought... Perhaps it was the hardships of this long period of time that made Jiang Xue change. This is good, she will protect herself well in the future.

The new Jiang Xue standing in front of him now is no longer the naive and innocent girl.

Nangong Jue climbed in through Jiang Xue's open window again.

"Woman, do you want to get my attention?" He stood in front of the window and looked at Jiang Xue who was sitting on the bed.

Jiang Xue looked at Nangong Jue as if he was an idiot!

This guy must have been poisoned and gone stupid!

"Or, let me put it another way!"

"Woman, I like you. Can I be yours?"

Jiang Xue heard: “..............”

The shadow guard in the dark: “.............”

****

"You want to be mine? Why?" Jiang Xue frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes flashing with doubt and vigilance, and asked questions like a machine gun.

She took a step forward, and each step brought a sense of oppression.

He went straight to Nangong Jue, questioning in an increasingly harsh tone: "You and I have never met before, and we have no connection at all. What exactly are you planning?"

Nangong Jue smiled bitterly and responded: "Well... because you are an old friend of mine."

His voice was low and magnetic, revealing a hint of helplessness.

"Old friend? What old friend?" Jiang Xue widened her eyes and asked curiously.

She was obviously not satisfied with this mysterious answer.

Nangong looked at the ceiling in despair, as if lost in memories, but he hesitated to speak.

Then he raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said mysteriously: "The reason behind this cannot be explained for a while, but you will understand it when the time is right."

Jiang Xue stared at the man in front of her and had to admit that even with her knowledgeable eyes, Nangong Jue's enchantingly handsome face still had an irresistible charm.

Especially those deep eyes, which seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. However, it was this attraction that made her worried.
