214: Chapter 214 But she's afraid of pain

“Di Youruo, you didn't leave.”

Li Qing frowned.

“Heh, so you're finished enjoying yourself.”

“And now you don't want to see me anymore.”

“Little husband, you are very naughty.”

A plume of smoke instantly appeared before Li Qing, and a seductive face emerged as a jade-like finger gently tilted Li Qing's chin upward.

“You're being so unscrupulous.”

“Do you really think I can't deal with you?”

Li Qing smiled faintly.

“Oh? Little husband wants to deal with me?”

“How do you want to deal with this one?”

“Will it be the same way you dealt with Mu Qingyue?”

“But this one is afraid of pain.”

“Could you be a little gentler?”

Di Youruo's purple eyes blinked.

Li Qing: “...”

[Do you really think I have no way to handle you?]

He didn't say a word, instead reaching out a finger to gently touch the center of Di Youruo's brow.

“If I said I could kill you, would you believe me?”

Li Qing said indifferently.

“I don't believe it.”

“Kill me and show me, then.”

Di Youruo continued to blink her eyes at Li Qing.

Without a cultivation base at the Dao Ancestor Realm or above...

It is impossible to kill me.

Suddenly, Li Qing's finger moved, striking Di Youruo's left shoulder.

“Chaos Demon-Breaking Finger.”

“Bang.”

Di Youruo was instantly sent flying, as a beam of Chaos light pierced through dozens of miles of the Void Realm.

Di Youruo tapped her feet seven or eight times against the void before she managed to stabilize herself.

A sharp pain radiated from her left shoulder, where a bloody hole had appeared.

“You hurt me.”

“You actually hurt me.”

Di Youruo's eyes were filled with disbelief.

The Heavens allowed me to hear your inner thoughts, and it was so you could hurt me?

I was so good to you.

I sent a woman to you for Dual Cultivation.

I let you achieve a Breakthrough in your cultivation.

And you actually hurt me.

The Human Race really has no conscience.

Di Youruo bit her pearly teeth tightly, a crystalline shimmer appearing in her eyes.

The tiny bit of favorability she had for Li Qing instantly dropped to zero.

[What's going on?]

[Why is Di Youruo's reaction so extreme?]

[Please, I could have killed you directly while you were off guard just now.]

[If it weren't for the fact that you weren't that bad in the original plot, that finger would have pierced your brow and Primordial Spirit.]

Heh.

Am I supposed to thank you for showing mercy?

Why didn't you just kill me?

Wait.

With his cultivation, it should be impossible for him to hurt me.

There was something strange about that finger strike.

Di Youruo's moth-like brows furrowed slightly.

“Leave the Hongmeng Great World.”

Li Qing said flatly.

“I'll leave then. You think I care about staying?”

Di Youruo's heart had turned completely cold.

She turned around and flew away immediately.

However, in the next moment, the sky suddenly changed color, and terrifying Grandmist Thunderclouds appeared in the nearby horizon.

Di Youruo retreated in fright, and the thunderclouds vanished mysteriously.

She tried to fly forward again, and the thunderclouds reappeared.

Di Youruo retreated, and the thunderclouds vanished.

After several attempts, she flew back to the mountain peak with a cold face.

“I can't leave.”

“If I move more than a mile away from you, I'll be detected by the hongmeng heavenly dao.”

Li Qing: “...”

[No way.]

[According to the original plot, this situation should only happen between her and Gu Beichen.]

[After she meets Gu Beichen, leaving him by more than a mile would trigger the Heavenly Dao's destruction.]

[How did this end up happening with me?]

[System, is this because of that Luck thing again?]

[Ding! Yup!]

[Then doesn't that mean I can't get rid of her?]

[Damn it.]

You think I want to follow you?

I don't like people without a conscience.

Di Youruo bit her red lips and glared at Li Qing.

“Tend to your injury first.”

Li Qing's brow furrowed slightly.

“It's none of your business.”

Di Youruo turned her head away directly.

[She's really angry.]

[Telling you to leave the Hongmeng Great World is for your own good.]

[Here, you are just prey for Gu Beichen.]

[The hongmeng heavenly dao will not let you go.]

[Leaving is the only way to live.]

[Staying means certain death.]

What does he mean by this?

He hurt me in order to save me?

Di Youruo was stunned.

So that means he does have a conscience.

I knew it.

How could someone who allows me to hear his inner thoughts have such a bad heart?

If there's something wrong, can't you just say it directly?

Why did you have to resort to violence?

If it weren't for the fact that I can hear your heart...

I would have misunderstood you for the rest of my life.

Di Youruo turned back, biting her pearly teeth as she looked at Li Qing.

“You were the one who hurt me.”

“You deal with the injury for me.”

Di Youruo's favorability toward Li Qing recovered and even increased by quite a bit.

“Handle it yourself.”

Li Qing shook his head.

“How am I supposed to do it with one hand?”

“Don't you have any idea how ruthless your strike was?”

Di Youruo gave Li Qing a fierce glare.

Then she sat down on a large rock near Li Qing.

Li Qing glanced at the injury; his strike had indeed been a bit harsh, as the wound on her shoulder was still bleeding.

He had no choice but to go over and help treat the wound.

“This is...”

Just as Li Qing knelt down, he saw a terrifying sword-like wound; the clothes on her shoulder had been shattered by the Chaos Demon-Breaking Finger, revealing a large area of skin.

[Holy crap.]

[This figure, damn, this is...]

[Damn it, Li Qing, you're treating a wound, don't freaking stare around.]

Di Youruo: “...”

This bastard.

Did you hurt me like this on purpose?

Di Youruo gritted her teeth.

She suddenly leaned forward a bit, letting Li Qing see more clearly so he could better treat the injury.

Li Qing: “...”

She was an Outer Path Heavenly Demon.

Under normal circumstances, she had no affection for living beings.

But once she did have affection...

She didn't mind showing her beauty to the opposite sex.

As Li Qing treated the wound, he was soon covered in sweat.

For someone with his level of cultivation to sweat, one could imagine the level of temptation.

As soon as the wound was treated, Li Qing immediately flashed to the side.

He took several deep breaths to calm the restless emotions in his heart.

When Li Qing turned back to check on the wound, he froze in place.

Di Youruo was actually changing her clothes right in front of him.

Then, a jade finger waved in front of Li Qing's eyes.

When Li Qing snapped out of it, he saw Di Youruo looking at him with a beaming smile.

“Does it look good?”

Di Youruo blinked at Li Qing.

[On purpose, she's definitely doing this on purpose.]

[This is revenge for me hurting her just now.]

[Who takes revenge like this?]

What do you mean?

What revenge?

This one simply wanted you to see, that's all.

The corners of Di Youruo's mouth curled into an arc.

Do you think just anyone can make me act like this?

From my birth until now, you are the first.

And the last.

“Little husband, I feel a bit dizzy.”

Di Youruo suddenly swayed and fell directly into Li Qing's arms.

Li Qing: “...”

[It's just a shoulder injury.]

[How can you be dizzy?]

[Excessive blood loss?]

[Surely not.]

But Li Qing still supported her and sat her down on a large rock, while Di Youruo nestled into his embrace.

For some reason, lying in Li Qing's arms gave her an unprecedented sense of peace.

[What should I do?]

[Di Youruo must leave the Hongmeng Great World.]

[Otherwise, she will definitely die.]

[But now she can't even leave my side by a mile.]

[This is really bizarre.]

[How can I send her away?]

[Could it be that in the end, she really has to sacrifice herself to fill the Eye of Hongmeng for the sake of all living beings in the Grandmist?]

[An Outer Path Heavenly Demon filling the Eye of Hongmeng for the sake of the Grandmist's inhabitants? Can you believe it?]

[That's also why I showed mercy just now.]

Thinking about driving me away again.

Filling the Eye of Hongmeng...

That's something for the future.

Di Youruo was taken aback.

No.

I don't want to leave for now.

“Little husband, these clothes seem a bit old.”

“How about you help me change into a new set?”

“This one can't move, you know.”

Li Qing: “...”
