Bei Ming Chao's smiling face froze instantly, and he quickly explained:
"No, no, don't listen to her nonsense. I never meant that. I know we've only known each other for a short time. Lin Hanyue, apologize quickly!"
Bei Ming Chao felt that he couldn't explain himself, so he vented his anger on Lin Hanyue.
Lin Hanyue felt extremely aggrieved, but she knew that if she didn't apologize, Bei Ming Chao would abandon her.
She had just fallen out with Tuoba Ou, and if she was disliked by Bei Ming Chao now, it would be a bit of a loss.
The most important thing is that she must live a better life than before, so that Tuoba Ou will feel that breaking off the engagement with her was a wrong decision.
She took a deep breath and bowed sincerely: "I'm sorry, what I just said was nonsense. You must accept the pills."
Bei Ming Chao heard her apology in a very good tone, and in his heart he felt that his tone just now was a bit too much, so he couldn't help but coax her: "Han Yue, this is the right thing to do. If you listen to me, I will treat you well."
Lin Hanyue felt a little better when she heard this. She nodded like a little bird, "Brother, I understand. I will definitely be obedient in the future."
Bei Ming Chao liked others to obey him absolutely. He originally wanted to reach out and touch Lin Hanyue, but considering Mu Qingli and Shangguan Xiyue, his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.
Soon, he put it down nonchalantly, revealing a mysteriously confident smile: "She was just joking, don't take it seriously. Keep the pills safe, you might need them in the future."
Mu Qingli and Shangguan Xiyue didn't say anything, but they didn't force the pills back either.
Seeing their attitude soften, Bei Ming Chao urged them again: "I've already eaten those two fruits. I can't even give them back to you. Let's just consider it a barter, okay?"
Mu Qingli finally nodded: "Okay then."
Bei Ming Chao breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to lose the big picture for the sake of two pills.
Mu Qingli calculated the time and thought that the Fairy Fruit should have made some movement by now, but Bei Ming Chao was still as calm as ever.
She was a little skeptical whether what was recorded in the book was correct. Just as she thought of this, Bei Ming Chao's expression suddenly changed.
Lin Hanyue was closest to him and was the first to notice. She reached out and helped him up: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you so hot?"
Lin Hanyue's anxious tone didn't sound fake, and she seemed really worried about Bei Ming Chao's health.
Bei Ming Chao couldn't help but groan, but he was too embarrassed to show a painful expression in front of Mu Qingli and Shangguan Xiyue, so he just waved his hand: "I'm fine, it's just too hot."
Mu Qingli was walking in front and couldn't help laughing when he heard this, but he quickly put his smile away and looked back at the two of them: "Master Bei Ming, why is your head sweating so much? Are you feeling unwell?"
Shangguan Xiyue kept pursing her lips to prevent herself from laughing, and seemed to be worried about Bei Ming Chao.
Bei Ming Chao didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of them, so he immediately took out a pill and put it in his mouth: "I'm fine, I was injured some time ago and didn't get treatment in time."
Mu Qingli looked at his stubborn expression and nodded, "That's good. Last time I heard there's something that can forcibly increase your spiritual power. After taking it, you can advance without practicing. However, your body will experience abnormalities, similar to a burning sensation. It won't hurt much at first, but it will become excruciating pain later on..."
Look at me, what have I been talking about? I'm glad that Master Bei Ming is alright, let's continue on our journey."
Bei Ming Chao is now feeling hot all over, with a slight burning sensation in his body. Thinking about how he had forced himself to increase his strength some time ago, he feels a little scared.
Could it be true that it would be as painful as Mu Qingli said, that I would be dying afterwards?
His mind was in a mess. The pain wasn't very obvious right now, so he could still hold on. But what if...
Thinking of this, Bei Ming Chao couldn't help but tremble. He pretended to be very interested in Mu Qingli's words and asked, "What Miss Li just said is quite interesting. I wonder where did you hear it?"
Mu Qingli exchanged glances with Shangguan Xiyue in front, then began to make up a story: "Master told us that the pain would last for more than a month, and it would get worse as time went on. But I don't know what that thing Master is talking about."
Bei Ming Chao couldn't help but stumble when he heard this, and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Lin Hanyue supported him and said, "Brother, be careful."
Mu Qingli and Shangguan Xiyue also turned around and said with concern: "Oh, the road seems a bit bumpy. Master Bei Ming, don't just chat with us, pay attention to your feet."
The words were very considerate, but Bei Ming Chao had no intention of continuing to talk to them. He felt a little panicked when he thought that he might suffer more and more.
Lin Hanyue reached out to support him, and he did not immediately push away such an intimate gesture.
"I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. We can't go together next."
Bei Ming Chao still said this to Mu Qingli and Shangguan Xiyue.
Although Lin Hanyue didn't know what Bei Mingchao was thinking, she still followed him and said, "Yes, my senior brother and I have some things to do, so it's not convenient for us to bring you along."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Mu Qingli and Shangguan Xiyue proudly, as if she had achieved some victory.
Bei Ming Chao did not refute her words. After all, he had already hooked Lin Hanyue. She was his plaything that he could summon and dismiss at will. She didn't dare to say anything if he made a fool of himself in front of her.
Mu Qingli said with some regret: "This is too unfortunate. We just became friends."
Bei Ming Chao saw a trace of sadness on her face and wanted to ask them to stay, but in the end he insisted on letting them leave.
"You can come to Beiming Palace to find me in the future and say that you are my friend. They will have the chance to contact me."
Bei Ming Chao had thought about adding a communication stone, but when he thought about the fact that both of them came from poor backgrounds and might not have seen what a communication stone was, the idea only flashed through his mind for a moment and he quickly dismissed it.
Mu Qingli sighed and nodded: "Okay, after we get out of here, we will look for you."
Bei Ming Chao said goodbye to the two of them, held Lin Hanyue's hand and hurried to the side. His steps were very fast, as if he was being chased by something.
Mu Qingli watched him fleeing in panic and took out the memory fruit he had just placed on his body: "I recorded everything just now and will show it to Ah Ye when I get back."
Shangguan Xiyue couldn't help but tease: "Oh my, you're just protecting Brother Ye like this? But, I like your personality. If I were Brother Ye, I would definitely be very touched."
"There aren't many people with my personality, but... my brother is the same, very protective of his people."
After Mu Qingli finished speaking, he winked at Shangguan Xiyue with a hint of humor on his face.
