Feng Jiu glanced at him: “That’s not what I want to know.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze was stunned for a moment, then he said: “She saved my life.” He saw her raised eyebrows as she looked at him and waited for his next words. He sighed softly: “It’s because she saved my life that she came here with a letter from my Master. That’s why I promised to take care of her.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu realised this was the reason. No wonder he, who had no respect for his Master, would have agreed to take care of Yun Xuexin. It turned out that there was something she really didn’t know about.
“She saved your life when you were beyond the seas? Were you injured? Or did something else happen?” She asked with a frown. He didn’t say anything when he returned back then, so she never knew that he had met with an accident when he was away.
“What I did for my Master at that time was very difficult. We were being hunted down. At the time, I was seriously injured and had to avoid those who were hunting me down to kill me. So Master found Junior Sister and sent me to their family so that they could help hide me from those people.”
When he spoke about this, he sighed softly: “The force that was chasing us was very strong and powerful. At that time, the Yun Family had risked their clan being wiped out when they protected me. I was also struck with the Golden Thread Heart Corrosion Poison, and it was Junior Sister who had taken the risk to find the item to extract the Golden Thread Heart Corrosion Poison out for me. It was because of this that I was able to survive.”
A benefactor’s kindness was unforgettable, of course he knew that. However, he always thought that Yue Xuexin regarded him as a Senior Brother, and it was only for the sake of their friendship, he didn’t think that…
Feng Jiu’s heart couldn’t help but raise slightly when she heard this: “Why didn’t you tell me you encountered such a dangerous thing when you came back? Golden Thread Heart Corrosion Poison? That is a poison that burrows deep into the bones and blood, in order to draw out the poison you must have…”
She paused and her face changed slightly, but she didn’t speak for a while.
“The only way to draw out the Golden Thread Heart Corrosion Poison is to use blood, coupled with Golden Thread Heart Corrosion Poison’s favourite Seven Leaf Tip Heart.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said slowly. He looked at Feng Jiu’s face and he knew that she already knew of the difficulty Yun Xuexin had gone through to look for the medicine.
“The place where the Seven Leaf Tip Heart grows is highly poisonous, and you need a lot of them.” She looked at him complexly and said: “She must have spent a lot of effort in order to get the medicine for you.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze pondered for a while and said: “Although I was seriously injured and fell into a semi-coma at the time, my consciousness was still very clear. So I know that after my Junior Sister removed the Golden Thread Heart Corrosion Poison for me, I lay in bed for several days. I spent about half a month at the Yun Family’s home.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu looked at him deeply and said: “Why didn’t you tell me that you encountered such danger outside? If you had told me that Yun Xuexin had saved your life like this, no matter how much I hate her, I would have saved her some face.”
“I was afraid that you would be worried. What’s more, my body had already recovered by the time I returned, so I didn’t want to tell you and make you worry.” He smiled and held her hand, and said: “It doesn’t matter. Since you don’t like her, we will think of other ways to repay her kindness.”
Feng Jiu frowned lightly for a while and thought: Such kindness was not something that ordinary things could repay. Mo Ze was her man, and she didn’t want her man to owe another woman a favour.
But, how could she repay this kindness for him?
