"That, I just wanted to help heal your wounds, I mean no harm. It's just that the location of your injury, so..."
Chen Mo was certain this was the author's twisted sense of humor. Of all places to be injured, it had to be there, conveniently setting up a chance for the protagonist to get close.
But now.
"Hehe!"
"Since you're awake, you can handle it yourself." Chen Mo generously placed the Healing Charm beside Yun Yun and took a few steps back.
He knew that in the novel, Yun Yun was in a state of complete numbness at this moment and couldn't move at all.
He would have to step in eventually.
He was just doing this to make Yun Yun let her guard down.
Seeing Chen Mo step back, Yun Yun breathed a sigh of relief. The coldness in her eyes lessened as she turned to look at the green charm beside her, asking in surprise, "What is this?"
As she tried to reach for the charm, she realized her entire body was immobile. Moreover, her cultivation had been sealed.
"Damn it, I've been hit by its Sealing Art!" Yun Yun muttered through gritted teeth.
"This is a Healing Charm, it can heal your wounds," Chen Mo replied.
"A Healing Charm?" After struggling in vain, Yun Yun gave up and carefully examined the green charm beside her.
It was palm-sized, entirely green, with a line of black characters she didn't recognize.
This made Yun Yun skeptical of the unfamiliar Healing Charm.
"Can it really heal wounds?"
But she wouldn't voice her doubts outright, instead asking, "How do I use it?"
Her soft voice carried a hint of coldness, reminding Chen Mo to keep his distance.
"Place the Healing Charm on the wound and recite the incantation written on it."
"What does it say?"
"You don't recognize it?" The characters on the Healing Charm weren't from Earth. Chen Mo had thought they were unique to the world of "Battle Through the Heavens," but apparently not.
But why do I know how to read them?
"Of course," Yun Yun was both amused and exasperated. If I knew, would I be asking you?
Shaking her head, with a thought, some bottles and jars appeared beside Yun Yun. She said softly, "You'd better apply the medicine for me."
(A small edit: the Storage Ring can be used, but only for healing medicine.)
"She doesn't trust me. Well, it makes sense since Healing Charms don't exist in 'Battle Through the Heavens.' But this works out." Dispelling these thoughts, Chen Mo slowly stepped forward. He first put away the Healing Charm, then looked at the bottles and jars beside Yun Yun.
"This is awkward, which one is it? I have no idea!" Chen Mo widened his eyes. "Never mind, she took them out herself, so they must be fine."
Calming himself, Chen Mo's hand slowly moved toward Yun Yun's chest. His mind was in turmoil; this was his first time touching such a beautiful woman's body, and it was impossible not to react.
Tearing open the plain white robe, he saw a light blue metal armor underneath.
"This must be the Armor of the Ocean's Heart." Suppressing his inner turmoil, Chen Mo skipped the questioning step. Just as he was about to undo the armor, a cold gaze made him break out in a cold sweat.
"Cough, the wound is..." Joking aside, after all, she was a Battle Emperor from the beginner's village. Even though she was severely injured, her gaze still made Chen Mo feel extremely uncomfortable.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Yun Yun said, "Keep your hands and eyes in check. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
Yun Yun's body trembled slightly, and a noticeable blush appeared on her pale cheeks.
Clearly, she wasn't feeling any better than Chen Mo.
"Of course, I'm a gentleman," Chen Mo replied with an unnatural smile, though in his heart, he thought, "I'll eventually have my way with you."
Hearing this, Yun Yun looked up at the young man's handsome and earnest face and actually believed him. She took a deep breath, slowly closed her beautiful eyes, and said calmly, "Please proceed."
After all, the wound was in that position, and no matter how much he tried to control his hands, it was impossible to avoid contact. By the end of the treatment, both of them were drenched in sweat.
"Phew, finally done," Chen Mo sighed in relief.
Just as he was helping Yun Yun put on her clothes...
"Ding, main hidden quest completed. Reward: one King's Treasure Chest and 100 Luck Points."
"Would you like to open the King's Treasure Chest?"
Looking at the golden dragon-patterned chest before him, Chen Mo silently thought, "Yes."
As the golden light flashed, two messages appeared in front of Chen Mo.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking the Plunder function. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the God-level Cultivation Method: Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking the main quest: Establish your own faction. Upon successful establishment, the passive skill 'Invincible within your faction's territory' will be awakened."
The latest novel is first published on 69shu.com!
Chen Mo's heart trembled—he was about to become overpowered!
Plunder: As long as you have enough Luck Points, you can plunder anything across the myriad realms.
Well, a bold idea flashed through his mind.
"Ding, a severely injured three-star Battle Emperor has been detected. You can spend 33,000 Luck Points to plunder their cultivation."
"Ding, a portion of Qi Gathering Powder has been detected. You can spend 10 Luck Points to plunder it."
"..."
"Huh, what's this?" Chen Mo noticed a line of small golden text in the bottom right corner of the system interface.
"System products are guaranteed to be top quality!"
"Self-praise, huh?" Chen Mo chuckled inwardly.
...
"What are you thinking about?" Yun Yun swore that if she could move, she would have slapped this scoundrel in front of her. He was holding her clothes and staring at her body, lost in thought.
"Ah, so beautiful—no, I wasn't thinking about anything!" Returning to reality, Chen Mo was momentarily stunned by the sight before him. "So white!"
"You scoundrel, you... eek!" Yun Yun tried to sit up but accidentally aggravated her wound, causing her to cry out in pain and collapse to the ground.
"Ah, let me help you up!" Quickly draping the clothes over Yun Yun, Chen Mo half-carried her to her feet.
"Don't touch me," Yun Yun protested, but she had no strength to resist and could only submit weakly.
Holding her slender waist, Chen Mo didn't harbor any impure thoughts. Instead, he focused his mind on the God-level Cultivation Method: Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength.
Isn't this the cultivation method of the protagonist from the novel "Saint King"?
Is this connected?
Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow—these are the ranks assigned to cultivation methods on the Battle Qi Continent.
The Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, based on the descriptions in the novel and the system's classification
, clearly surpasses these four levels.
Meanwhile, as Yun Yun noticed Chen Mo holding her, her mind wandered to other thoughts, and she felt an inexplicable, peculiar sensation.
