24: Chapter 24 Detoxification Again
"Bang!"
Xiahou Yun stood up and slapped Xiang Tian in the chest. The latter let out a muffled groan and was knocked into the distance.
"Pfft!"
Xiang Tian clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood. "Damn it! Do you want to kill me? That was so heavy-handed!"
"Master!" Bai Yu, who had been sleeping nearby, immediately transformed into human form and hurried to his side.
"I'm fine. She's just in a fit of rage; she'll be fine in a while." Xiang Tian waved his hand.
Xiahou Yun did not retort and lay back down on the bed.
Subsequently, her body twisted uncontrollably, and the flush on her face grew more intense.
Her forehead was covered in beads of sweat. "Xiang Tian... hurry... hurry and help me..."
The medicinal effect of the hehuan grass erupted completely, making her body unbearably hot.
"Xiao Yun, you aren't calling me over just to beat me up again, are you?" Xiang Tian hesitated.
"Hurry... come over... I'm going to explode and die!" Xiahou Yun rolled around on the bed.
"Master, hurry up and go! If you don't go, she might really be in trouble!" Bai Yu urged from the side.
Xiang Tian gritted his teeth, stopped hesitating, got up, and walked towards the bedside.
But before he could get close, Xiahou Yun endured the pain and lunged at him from the bed.
She grabbed his collar, threw him onto the bed, and straddled him, her hands quickly tearing at his clothes.
"Damn! Am I about to be forced?" Xiang Tian widened his eyes, his heart rate involuntarily accelerating.
"Xiao Yun, be gentle. My body can't take such rough treatment..."
"Xiang Tian, you... hurry up!" Xiahou Yun's voice was hoarse, her eyes unfocused.
Soon, the two were bared to each other.
"Fine, bring it on!" Xiang Tian took a deep breath. Since things had reached this point, he would first overcome the immediate difficulty. As for whether Xiahou Yun wanted to kill or flay him later, he would figure it out then.
"Ah..." Xiahou Yun let out a suppressed roar, her body completely losing control.
This "battle" triggered by the medicinal effect lasted for three days and three nights.
The panting and moaning in the cave gradually subsided. Xiang Tian collapsed on the bed, his whole body aching, not wanting to move even a finger.
Xiahou Yun also lay beside him, equally exhausted. Traces of the battle remained on her fair skin, and she didn't even have the strength to put on clothes. She closed her eyes, but her body had already recovered to its previous fair and translucent state.
"Master, you're too fierce! It actually lasted for three days..." Bai Yu walked to the bed, looked at the two powerless people on the bed, subconsciously squeezed her legs together, and clicked her tongue in secret.
How could an ordinary person withstand this?
Xiang Tian barely opened his eyes. Seeing Bai Yu, his old face instantly flushed red: "Bai Yu, I forgot to put you away. I let you, this little fox, see everything."
At that time, he was too busy dealing with Xiahou Yun to think about anything else.
"Master, I saw what I should and shouldn't have seen. Besides, I discovered that you seem to know many tricks..." Bai Yu blinked.
Xiang Tian's face turned even redder. He coughed twice: "There's nothing for you to do now. Hurry back to the System space and stay there!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yu was enveloped in a beam of light, instantly disappearing from the spot, and was taken into the System space.
Back in the space, Bai Yu lay on the ground motionless, as if she had lost consciousness.
Xiang Tian gathered his courage and turned to look at Xiahou Yun, who was still "sleeping" beside him. He secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, this woman hasn't woken up, otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble would ensue.
He carefully moved his body, wanting to put on his clothes first and take the opportunity to slip away.
But just as he sat up, he heard Xiahou Yun's cold voice: "Where do you want to go?"
Xiang Tian's body froze instantly. He could feel that Xiahou Yun had not opened her eyes.
"I... I didn't want to go anywhere. I just wanted to put on some clothes first; it's a bit cold in the cave." Xiang Tian bit the bullet and explained.
"Don't even think about leaving." Xiahou Yun still had her eyes closed, her tone without a ripple. "When my injuries heal, I will settle the score with you."
"Xiao Yun, you can't be unreasonable! At that time, you were at death's door. I really couldn't think of any other way and could only use the hehuan grass to save you. This was a last resort." Xiang Tian hurriedly defended himself.
"Regardless of your purpose, you did what you did." Xiahou Yun finally opened her eyes. There was not a trace of gentleness in her gaze, only cold chill. "My purity, and my Immaculate Sword Body, have both been ruined by you."
"I did it, but didn't you enjoy the process?" Xiang Tian simply threw caution to the wind. He was no longer cautious and met her gaze.
"You... you dare to say that!" Xiahou Yun's chest heaved with anger. The wounds that had been torn before seemed to ache again, and she couldn't help but gasp.
"Xiao Yun, this was truly an expedient measure. I will take responsibility for you." Xiang Tian softened his tone. He knew that if he clashed head-on with Xiahou Yun now, he would definitely be the one to suffer.
"What will you use to take responsibility?" Xiahou Yun sneered. "My Immaculate Sword Body has been completely ruined because of this Dual Cultivation. Can you compensate me for it?"
"Xiao Yun, I told you, your understanding of the Immaculate is wrong." Xiang Tian said seriously. "The affairs between men and women naturally align with the Heavenly Dao. There is nothing wrong with it. Your Immaculate Sword Body will not be ruined because of this. You must believe me."
But he couldn't produce any evidence to prove his claim right now; he could only speak empty words.
Xiahou Yun didn't speak again, just closed her eyes and lay there, not wanting to move at all.
Xiang Tian glanced at her naked body, then looked at the clothes placed to the side, and asked tentatively: "Hmm? You don't have any extra clothes, do you?"
He thought about it; Xiahou Yun had rushed over to save him, so she definitely hadn't brought spare clothes.
"Put on some clothes first. Lying here like this isn't a solution." Xiang Tian took out a set of clothes and handed them to Xiahou Yun.
He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that after Xiahou Yun recovered, she would spare his life, considering he had saved her.
But Xiahou Yun still didn't move.
Xiang Tian felt helpless and could only put on his clothes first, wondering to himself: What should I do now to ease the atmosphere?
Suddenly, his eyes lit up: Make some barbecue? Maybe after Xiahou Yun eats it, her mood will improve a bit.
He did it as soon as he thought of it. He took out a barbecue grill and Spirit Beast meat from the System storage space and started a fire to grill the meat.
After two and a half hours of busy work, waves of enticing aroma wafted from the barbecue grill, permeating the entire cave.
Xiang Tian carried the grilled meat into the cave and carefully handed it to Xiahou Yun's lips: "Xiao Yun, this is my exclusive recipe barbecue. Want to try some?"
"I won't eat it!" Xiahou Yun closed her eyes, her tone cold.
"Is your body not recovered yet? Are you not able to move?" Xiang Tian asked again.
"You..." Xiahou Yun's cheeks suddenly flushed. It wasn't that she wasn't able to move, but because the previous "battle" had been too intense, her lower parts were still aching faintly, and she was too embarrassed to get up.
"After such intense exercise, you should eat some meat to replenish yourself, otherwise your body will recover slowly." Xiang Tian continued to persuade her.
"Take it away! I have long since reached the state of inedia; I don't need to eat." Xiahou Yun remained stubborn.
"Then can you at least put on your clothes first? It's so uncomfortable to lie like this."
"Stop bothering me! Before I get angry, get out of my sight!" Xiahou Yun's tone became even more impatient.
Xiang Tian sighed helplessly. This Xiahou Yun was impervious to reason; she was really hard to serve.
He suddenly leaned close to Xiahou Yun and deliberately lowered his voice: "Xiao Yun, lying in front of me naked like this, aren't you afraid I'll do something to you again?"
"Are you looking for death?" Xiahou Yun's beautiful eyes widened.
"I'm just reminding you, you'll easily catch a cold like this." After saying this, Xiang Tian turned and walked out of the cave.
He stood at the entrance of the cave for nearly an hour, estimating that Xiahou Yun's anger should have dissipated, and then walked into the cave again.
But as soon as he entered, he saw a scene that left him speechless.
Xiahou Yun was leaning against the bedside, holding the grilled meat, eating with relish.
"This kid's barbecue actually tastes so good... It would be even better if there was something to drink." Xiahou Yun muttered to herself.
Xiang Tian couldn't help but laugh. He took a bottle of beer from the System and handed it to Xiahou Yun: "This is beer. You should need to drink some of this to cleanse the grease."
Xiahou Yun looked up and saw Xiang Tian. Her cheeks instantly flushed red, the grilled meat in her hand almost fell to the ground, and her eyes were a bit evasive: "Hmm! Thanks..."
