C115 Duanmu Xueyan's Complexity
C115 Duanmu Xueyan's Complexity
After that, he carried Duanmu Xueyan's body and walked towards the bottom of the broken mountain.
Fortunately, the size of this huge mountain was huge, and the entire mountain was made of hard rock.
If not, it wouldn't be able to withstand Zhang Lingfeng's attack at all.
After all, his cultivation base was at the Demon Commander realm. He was not considered weak even in the human world.
It was worth mentioning that Zhang Lingfeng had encountered the corpses of a few disciples of the Profound Heaven Sword Sect while he was descending the mountain.
He was very familiar with these corpses. They were the few fellows who had abandoned Duanmu Xueyan to escape not long ago in order to survive.
It seemed like his guess was correct. It was definitely this group of people who clashed with Mad Dragon and were killed by him.
This place was only a few dozen miles away from the so-called Great Qin Imperial City. The surrounding area was filled with wilderness.
After leaving the bandit group's lair, Zhang Lingfeng found a spacious cave and decided to stay in it for the night.
After all, Duanmu Xueyan was seriously injured and always carried this woman around aimlessly. It was not like that.
A day quickly passed and night gradually fell.
A bright and clear moon hung in the sky.
Zhang Lingfeng stood outside the cave, staring at the moon in the sky, lost in thought.
At this moment, there was a sound of pain in the cave. It was Duanmu Xueyan, who had fainted. She slowly sat up.
"I am actually not dead? Where is this?"
Duanmu Xueyan looked at her surroundings and muttered to herself. A trace of confusion flashed across her exquisite face.
She remembered that back in the Mad Dragon Bandit Group's lair, she was seriously injured by the two heads of the thieves.
After that, she could not bear it and fainted.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Xueyan's expression changed slightly, as if she had thought of something. Suddenly, she started to check her body condition.
When she found out that her pure body was still there, she could not help but feel relieved in her heart.
After checking her body, she found that the injuries on her body had actually recovered a little. Clearly, it was during the period when she was unconscious. Someone had fed her some healing medicine.
"Who saved me?"
Looking at the situation inside the cave, Duanmu Xueyan was extremely confused.
At this time, a thin and delicate figure came in.
"Miss Duanmu, you are finally awake. "
Zhang Lingfeng stared at Duanmu Xueyan's exquisite face and greeted her with a smile.
Not long ago in the lair of Mad Dragon Bandit Group, his clone had also been injured. However, through the cleansing of the energy points, he had recovered by more than half.
In fact, the magical energy particles could allow him to recover to his peak condition in a short period of time.
However, he did not do that to avoid arousing Duanmu Xueyan's suspicion.
"Why are you still alive?"
Duanmu Xueyan said in surprise when she saw Zhang Lingfeng's face.
Zhang Lingfeng almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard that. He said in a somewhat depressed manner,
"I say, Miss Duanmu, what do you mean by that? Could it be that you wish for me to die? "
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant? I. . . "
Duanmu Xueyan finally realized that there was something wrong with her words. A blush appeared on her delicate face and she intended to explain in embarrassment.
However, at this moment, Zhang Lingfeng waved his hand, indicating that he did not mind.
Of course, he knew that the girl did not deliberately say that. It was just that she said something wrong in a moment of desperation.
So, before she could finish speaking, he interrupted her. "I know what you want to ask, you want to ask. . . Why are both of us still alive? "
"Yes. "
Duanmu Xueyan nodded her head slightly and said in surprise: "What exactly happened after I lost consciousness back then?"
Zhang Lingfeng already knew that this girl would ask this question after she woke up, so on the way, he had already thought of an excuse to lie.
Now that he heard Duanmu Xueyan's question, his face deliberately revealed a struggling expression, as if he was hesitating whether or not to tell her his secret.
Seeing Zhang Lingfeng like this, Duanmu Xueyan's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and an idea arose in her heart. Could it be that this fellow saved me?
Just as Duanmu Xueyan was deep in thought, Zhang Lingfeng felt that it was about time for him to pretend. He opened his mouth and said:
"Initially, I didn't want to say this matter, but since Miss Duanmu asked, I don't think there is anything to hide. "
At this point, Zhang Lingfeng asked, "Do you know why you lost consciousness back then?"
"Didn't you lose consciousness because I was injured?"
Duanmu Xueyan frowned slightly and replied in confusion.
"Of course not!"
Zhang Lingfeng shook his head and pretended to be embarrassed.
"To tell you the truth, senior sister, when I found out that we were in danger, I secretly drugged us.
That kind of sedative is very powerful, and it is colorless and odorless. Even a Void Shocking Stage Martial Cultivator would fall into a coma if they were hit by it. "
"Hmm?"
Duanmu Xueyan's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. She looked at Zhang Lingfeng in surprise and said, "Could it be that the reason why I fell into a coma is related to that drug?"
"Cough cough, your guess is correct. "
Zhang Lingfeng touched his nose and said with a coy smile, "Back then, the situation was special and I did not have the time to tell you. I could only take the antidote myself. I hope you do not blame me, senior sister. "
Although this lie was watertight, if he said it like this, it would be a trap for Duanmu Xueyan.
So when Zhang Lingfeng explained, he was very polite and worried that Duanmu Xueyan would go crazy.
"You saved my life. How could I blame you?"
Duanmu Xueyan shook her head and followed Zhang Lingfeng's lead. She also thought about it and continued to ask curiously.
"Could it be that after I fainted, those thieves also fainted because of the sedative you sprinkled?"
"Senior sister is really smart. "
Zhang Lingfeng gave her a thumbs up and secretly sighed in his heart that this woman was really smart. As expected, she guessed it well. No wonder he thought of this excuse for so long.
On the surface, he was calm and said with a bitter smile:
"It was those guys who fainted that allowed me to escape with senior sister.
Because I was worried that the leader of the bandit group would discover me, I spent a lot of effort to escape. "
After saying that, Zhang Lingfeng deliberately put on a look of lingering fear.
Duanmu Xueyan pursed her lips. She kept feeling that there was something wrong with what the young man in front of her said.
That group of bandits was so powerful. How could they fall into their trap so easily?
And this fellow's cultivation was clearly average. How could he escape so easily with a burden like her?
Duanmu Xueyan was extremely intelligent. Actually, she had long discovered that this young man in front of her had some secrets.
After all, Zhang Lingfeng's cultivation base could only be considered to be at the bottom of the list among the fellow disciples who carried out the mission.
However, when he was in a bad situation back then, many of his fellow disciples with powerful cultivation bases had died, but he was still alive.
Just this point alone was a bit strange.
But Duanmu Xueyan was a smart person. She understood that everyone had their own secrets, so she did not ask much.
Furthermore, Zhang Lingfeng's words just now did not have any flaws.
Although she felt that this escape process was not that simple, she still believed most of Zhang Lingfeng's words.
Staring at the young man in front of her, Duanmu Xueyan said softly, "Thank you. "
When her master asked her to take care of Zhang Lingfeng in the outer sect, Duanmu Xueyan actually did not put this new outer sect disciple in her eyes.
Especially when she first met Zhang Lingfeng, this guy had called her "beauty," which greatly reduced Duanmu Xueyan's impression of him.
However, as she got closer to Zhang Lingfeng this time, she realized that this man in front of her was different from what she initially thought. He wasn't an ordinary disciple.
Not only was he a body cultivator, but his combat strength was also very strong. He could easily jump ranks to fight, and his character was also not bad.
If it wasn't for the other party this time, she would probably have died without a doubt.
Thinking of these aspects, Duanmu Xueyan's feelings towards Zhang Lingfeng were also very complicated.
At the same time, Zhang Lingfeng did not know what the beautiful woman in front of him was thinking.
He shook his head, indicating that she did not need to thank him. He immediately asked, "Senior sister, what do you plan to do next?"
It wasn't easy for him to come out. Zhang Lingfeng wanted to take a look at Great Qin Imperial City, but he didn't want to return to the city so quickly.
He just didn't know if this little girl was willing to go.
