It seemed like he was listening.
Yulin let out a sigh of relief and continued, "You know that my Spirit Mansion is cracked, and sometimes I can't control myself."
"Mm."
The other person responded softly.
His voice was gentle and warm, carrying a unique rhythm.
Yulin couldn't help but steal a glance at him.
Before her stood a figure with long hair scattered among the dry leaves, a face like white jade, lips resembling painted crimson, exuding a faint fragrance, akin to the slowly blooming Ghost Orchid.
A beauty indeed, yet reduced to thievery.
Yulin sighed inwardly but showed no sign of it on her face.
She was afraid that speaking it aloud would seem abrupt.
After all, they had just met; it was better not to tease him too soon.
Yulin quietly inhaled and slowly tried to rise.
Her Spirit Mansion had cracked, and her cultivation had regressed significantly.
After going through such turmoil earlier, she felt weak all over and couldn't get up at all.
She supported herself for a moment but ended up collapsing back to the ground.
She couldn't help but curse herself as "useless" in her heart.
Her tone was flat, showing no trace of sadness.
She had long accepted the fact that she had become useless.
Over the years, she had read more medical texts than spells.
She had resigned herself to her fate long ago.
Yulin sighed again and took out a bottle of healing medicine from her bosom, actually from her storage pouch.
"You’re injured."
She explained, "Those people were rough; you have wounds on your face, and you must have injuries on your body as well."
"Do you want some?"
She shook the medicine bottle in front of him.
"I have plenty of healing medicine."
She added, "Feel free to take some."
The other person remained silent.
He simply kept his eyes tightly closed, motionless.
Yulin furrowed her brows. She didn't understand what the other person was being awkward about. After thinking for a moment, she reached out to grab the other person's wrist, wanting to check their pulse. Although her cultivation had regressed due to the Spirit Mansion's rift, she had read plenty of medical books and could still take a pulse without issue.
However—
As soon as she touched the other person's wrist, she was shaken off.
"Don't touch me!" the other person said in a hoarse voice, trembling slightly.
Yulin paused for a moment. After a brief silence, she said softly, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to see how badly you're hurt."
"I'm fine," the other person replied quietly. "I won't die."
"Alright then." Yulin retracted her hand and tossed a bottle of medicine into the other person's lap. "Take it yourself."
The other person's eyelashes fluttered, but they remained silent.
Yulin waited for a while before unable to hold back any longer. "You should eat it quickly."
"I..." The other person's voice was very low. "I can't swallow it."
Hearing this, Yulin couldn't help but frown. She thought for a moment and took out a water pouch from her pocket. "How about using some water to help?"
The other person didn't respond but slowly opened their eyes.
Yulin felt relieved inside. She then realized that the other person had been keeping their eyes tightly shut all along. No wonder she had felt something was off.
"Thank you," the other person said softly, their voice gentle and carrying a unique rhythm.
Yulin waved her hand dismissively. "No need to be polite."
After a pause, she added, "If you don't mind, you can stay here to recuperate."
"I..."
The other person's voice was very soft. "I can't stay here."
"Why?"
Yulin asked, puzzled. "Are you afraid those people will come to catch you?"
She thought for a moment and added, "You can stay here; I'll go out."
"No."
The other person explained quietly, "I'm not afraid of them coming to catch me; it's just..."
Yulin was confused.
She looked at the other person, waiting for them to finish their sentence.
However, the other person remained silent for a long time.
Just when Yulin thought they wouldn't speak again, the other person suddenly said, "You're not useless."
The voice was soft but very firm.
Yulin found this person quite interesting.
Despite being beaten by so many people just now, they didn't say a word, as if they didn't care about it at all.
"Which peak are you a disciple of?"
Yulin asked curiously, "Why did those people want to hit you?"
The other person remained silent, only breathing lightly.
"Is it because of the Yin Yang Fish?"
Yulin became even more curious. "Where did you hide the Yin Yang Fish?"
She had looked for a long time and saw that the other person had no chance to hide the Yin Yang Fish.
The other person closed their eyes and softly said, "At the back mountain, under the spring."
Yulin was taken aback.
She didn't expect the other person to be so honest.
