My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife - Chapter 611

Chapter 611: Black Impermanence Retreating

 

“I am alright. Why did you come?” Qingfeng Li asked confusingly. He told Xuanji Lu to protect Xue Lin, but why was he here with his master.

“It was Alice who called me and told me to come.” Xuanji Lu said.

Alice was Wolf Fang Clan’s information queen. She knew that it would be dangerous today, so she told Daoist before hand and told him to bring his master with him.

From what things are now, Alice definitely was right. If she didn’t notified Daoist, then Qingfeng Li and Wolf Fang Clan would be dead meat.

“Qingfeng Li, the knife has the power of meteorite. It is eroding your body.” The elder Daoist came towards Qingfeng Li and said.

“You know about this power?” Qingfeng Li asked.

The elder Daoist nodded and said, “Yes I do. I will take care of Black Impermanence first and then pull out the knife for you.”

“Daozang Lu, you are the Temple Master of Wudang Mountain. Are you going to protect Wolf King?” Black Impermanence’s brows tensed up and asked.

Black Impermanence knew the elder Daoist in front of him. He was the leader of Wudang Mountain and was known by most of the powerful masters. He was extremely powerful before, but his level dropped due to a strong wound.

“Black Impermanence, Qingfeng Li saved my life. You better leave, or else I am going to defeat you.” The elder Daoist said plainly with the whisk in his hand.

“Daozang Lu, you were wounded heavily three years ago. All of your power is lost. What do you have to fight me?” Black Impermanence didn’t take the elder Daoist seriously.

Facing Black Impermanence’s humiliation, the elder Daoist smiled and said: “I said it before, Qingfeng Li was my savior. He cured my meridians and took care of my body.

What? Cured meridians and body?

Black Impermanence’s face changed and he was shocked. He looked at the elder Daoist closely. He saw that the elder Daoist’s body was filled with power and all of his body was cured.

F*ck. Qingfeng Li cured Daozang Lu, how come I didn’t know about this intel. Black Impermanence was out of words.

But Black Impermanence was here today because of his master’s order to kill Qingfeng Li, he wouldn’t leave that easily.

“Daozang Lu, even if your meridians were cured, you are probably less powerful than before. Today, let me test your power level for you.” Black Impermanence smirked and walked towards Daozang Lu.

He knew that the most powerful enemy was Daozang Lu because he was the leader of Wudang Mountain and was extremely powerful. Even though he was wounded before, Black Impermanence wouldn’t dare to look at him lightly.

Bang!

Black Impermanence stepped on the ground heavily and the marble floor became powders. The force was stronger than both Qingfeng Li and Hell King.

With the force of his foot, Black Impermanence appeared in front of the elder Daoist instantly like lightning.

“Ghost King Palm.” Black Impermanence extended his palm that had black lights coming out. It ripped through the air and went towards the elder Daoist.

Ghost King Palm was extremely powerful and was the ultimate of Ghost King. Being the pupil of Ghost King, Black Impermanence learned the skill as well.

Even though he didn’t perfect the palm, the power it had was powerful enough. Both Bald-man and Alice were sent flying by the Ghost King Palm.

Daocang Lu became serious. Even though he was cured by Qingfeng Li, his powerful level still decreased. If he was at his apex state, he could of send Black Impermanence flying with one punch. Now he obviously couldn’t.

“Taichi Fist.” Daozang Lu formed a Ying Yang circle with his body. His right fist formed a Taichi and punched towards Black Impermanence’s Ghost King Palm.

Taichi always used its softness to fight hardness. Just when Black Impermanence’s Ghost King Palm touched Taichi Fist, it was brought to the side by Daozang Lu. He couldn’t land his attack on the elder Daoist.

Black Impermanence continued to attack, but every attack was neutralized by the Taichi Fist. He couldn’t land any hits onto the elder Daoist.

Ghost King Palm was meant to attack continuously to all the death points, but when face with the Taichi Fist, it couldn’t do anything.

After neutralizing all of Black Impermanence’s attack, he used Taichi’s borrowed force and Black Impermanence’s power to send Black Impermanence flying back.

Black Impermanence was sent back with the force and had to use five steps to finally balance his body. His clothes were ripped and his breathing was rushed.

“Even with wound you were able to send me stepping back, you are worthy of your title of Wudang Temple Master.” Black Impermanence smirked, but he began to be careful.

Ten years ago, Daozang Lu was a famous master as well, an extremely powerful master. He lost his reputation after he was wounded heavily.

“Black Impermanence, you can’t do anything to me because you are only perfect SSS+. Only your master Ghost King could fight me.” Daozang Lu looked at Black Impermanence expressionlessly.

“Daozang Lu, you are stopping me from killing Qingfeng Li. Are you sure you wanted to become Ghost King Palace’s enemy?”

“Black Impermanence, I’ve said it before. Qingfeng Li is my savior, so I have to save him.”

“Fine, just you wait. My master Ghost King is going to kill you.” Black Impermanence threatened and left with Hell King and the wounded Ghost King Clan.

Black Impermanence wasn’t able to land his attacks and was even pushed back by Daoznag Lu during their fight. Black Impermanence knew that he wasn’t able to kill Qingfeng Li and he would be at a disadvantage after some times. Thus, he left.

“Master, why didn’t you kill Black Impermanence and Hell King?” seeing how Black Impermanence left with the others, Xuanji Lu asked.

Regarding Xuanji Lu’s question, the elder Daoist didn’t say anything. After making sure Black Impermanence and the others left completely, his face suddenly reddened up.

Puchi~

The elder Daoist suddenly spitted out tons of blood. His face was pale and he appeared to age instantly.

“Master, you are wounded?” Xuanji Lu’s expression changed and asked caringly.

The elder Daoist nodded and said: “my power decreased too much from my wound before. I had to force myself to power up during the fight with Black Impermanence and it damaged my meridians. Fortunately, Black Impermanence left. If he found out that I was wounded, then we would be in danger.”

After hearing the elder Daoist’s explanation, Qingfeng Li and Xuanji Lu understood why the elder Daoist didn’t kill Black Impermanence. It was because he was wounded and could only scared them away.

Chapter 612: The World of Anceint Martial Artists

 

“Qingfeng, the long blade cannot be left in your body. The dark energy of the meteorite will cause you great harm. I’ll pull it out for you.” Daocang said with a frown.

“I tried it by myself but couldn’t get it out. Do you indeed have a way to pull it out?” Qingfeng Li shook his head, frustrated.

“The power in the meteorite is quite extraordinary. Only with a special method can it be taken out. Mere strength is no use to it.” Daocang Lu explained. He had seen weapons made of meteorite and knew how to deal with it.

“Temple master, I’d like to know about the strength of Black Impermanence and the power you possess.” Qingfeng Li arched his eyebrows and inquired with a trace of curiosity.

Qingfeng thought that Black Impermanence’s strength in the palm strike that sent Bald Man and Alice flying was even greater than his own. It may have exceeded the level SSS.

“Qingfeng, you are the African Wolf King, the best of the generation. What is the maximum strength in your punch?” Instead of answering, Daocang Lu asked a question of his own.

Though unsure of the intention of the question, Qingfeng Li replied, “I can punch with a strength of 500 kg at the peak of my time.”

How much is the power of 500 kg? There is a simple example to understand it: if Qingfeng Li encountered an attacking tiger or lion, he could kill it with one punch.

“Qingfeng, the power of Black Impermanence’s punch is five times of yours, which is 2,500 kg.” Daocang Lu’s words shocked both Qingfeng Li and all the people around him.

“It’s impossible. Even I, the king of at the pinnacle SSS level, can only unleash 500 kg of power in one punch, how could Black Impermanence manage 2.500 kg? Is he also a king? Even a king does not possess that kind of power.” Qifeng Li said doubtfully.

If it had been another man instead of this elder Daoist told him that Black Impermanence possessed the strength of 2.500 kg, Qingfeng Li would have struck him for uttering nonsense. Now he was filled with doubt and shock.

“Wolf King, I acknowledge that you are a bad ass. But you are only the master and king of the ordinary mortals. Above you there are Ancient Martialists.” Having seen the doubt in Qingfeng Li’s eyes, Daocang Lu said.

Ancient Martialists?

Qingfeng Li frowned. It was the second time that he heard this name. The first time was with his teacher Wind Edge Demeon King who told him that the Conqueror Third Master Li was an Ancient Martialist. When Qingfeng Li asked about the Ancient Martialists, his teacher only told him that they were existence beyond ordinary people.

“Qingfeng, Ancient Martialists exist above common people. Martial arts have prospered since ancient times in Huaxia. Ancient Martialists came from the large number of people who study in different sections and schools such as Shaolin, Wudang, Ermei, Ghost King Place, etc..”

“Ancient Martialist are a group of people coming from different schools and families. They have different ways of practice from the modern Wushu which consists of Sanda fighting, boxing, and taekwondo. Ancient Martialist have their own unique ways of practice. The Yi Jin Jing of Shaolin Temple and the Taichi of Wudang Mountain do exist in the real world.”

“An Ancient Warrior of Lower Heaven State is invulnerable and cannot be hurt by any blade or gun. In the Higher Heaven State, one can walk on water and be dripping with swag. In the Grandmaster State, an Ancient Warrior is able to fly in the air and wound enemy with a leaf, killing without a trace.”

“I used to be an Ancient Warrior, but my power was greatly reduced after a severe wound in the Ancient Martial meridian. All I want to tell you is that the power of Ancient Martialists is beyond your imagination.”

With a solemn face, Daocang Lu gave Qingfeng Li a short report about Ancient Martialists.

Ancient Wushu has always been around since Shaolin era. It is unnoticeable because the ancient wushu circle has regulated that its followers should not interfere with the life of ordinary people.

Of course, there were always law-breakers. Ghost King trying to kill Qingfeng Li was one example.

“Temple master, are the Ancient Martialists really more powerful than me?”Qingfeng Li was still doubtful.

He was the master and king in both Africa and the Dark World. It was definitely hard to accept that all of a sudden he was overpowered by a group of people.

“Qingeng, don’t be narrow-minded. You are the best among the ordinary people. But in the eyes of the Ancient Martialists, you are the weakest.” The words of Daocang Lu gave Qingfeng Li another blow to his self-esteem.

Qingfeng Li was shocked speechless. “Temple master, stop stomping on my self-estem. I am the peerless Wolf King in the Dark World. How come I’m reduced to be the weakest?”

Daocang Lu shook his head, “your greatest strength is only 500 kg while an Ancient Warrior of the lowest state can give a punch of 1,000 kg. Don’t you think you are the weakest?”

What the heck? Even the lowest level warrior can give a punch of 1,000 kg? Qingfeng Li was stupefied.

“Temple master, please tell me about the levels of the Ancient Martialist and the strength of Black Impermanence.” Qingfeng Li asked.

It was natural for Qingfeng Li to want to know more about the Ancient Martialists who were stronger than him. Otherwise, he would be a dead man when he encountered one of them.

“They are divided into three levels or states which are Lower Heaven State, Higher Heaven State, and Grandmaster State. Each state is again divided into low tier, mid tier, master tier and pinnacle tier. The weakest is the early stage of the Lower Heaven State which has a strength of 1,000 kg. Black Impermanence is in the pinnacle of the Lower Heaven State and he can unleash 2,500 kg in one strike.

Qingfeng Li was amazed. He was the master and king among the ordinary people but the weakest in the eyes of the Ancient Martialists.

“One day I will defeat those Ancient Martialists.” With fists clenched, Qingfeng Li swore silently.

He had confidence in himself. He had been an ordinary boy of 8 when he went to the Wolf Continent with his teacher. After years of hard practice he had defeated countless opponents and become the Africa Wolf King.

“Qingfeng, now you have some knowledge of the Ancient Martialists. I am going to pull the meteorite blade out.” (TL: wait why you gotta wait bro) Daocang Lu came to the side of Qingfeng Li. He held the handle of the blade and chanted silently some words from Daoist Scripture.

In his palm appeared a yellow ray of light. Then he grabbed the handle and in a flash the long blade was out.

Puchi~

Daocang Lu spat some blood for the second time. Evidently pulling the blade out had cost him greatly, making his wound more severe.

Qingfeng Li felt a sharp pain in his chest where a spurt of blood rushed out. Bearing the pain, he took out nine silver needles and penetrated them into the acupuncture points around the wound to stop the blood before bandaging it.

After that he staggered to the side of Ruyan Liu. He quickly loosened the ropes binding her and called her name several times. Ruyan Liu remained unconscious.

A trace of blood oozed from Ruyan Liu. Qingfeng Li watched closely and suddenly felt frightened: The baby in her belly had been disturbed.

Chapter 613: Ruyan Liu At Risk of Miscarriage

 

Based on his excellent medical knowledge and skills, Qingfeng Li saw in a glance that Ruyan Liu’s pregnancy was affected. The blood oozing from her body was a sure sign of the disturbance. It was the result of shock and being bound to the chair for a long time.

The baby was due just in a month. If she miscarried, Qingfeng Li would kill to retaliate.

“Ghost King Palace, I’ll destroy all of you when I become an Ancient Martial artist.” Qingfeng Li spat out the words with hatred.

The Ghost King Palace had hurt Ruyan Liu, the Wolf Fang team members and himself. Qingfeng Li was furious with this evil force of Antient Warriors. One day, he swore, he would kill all of them.

More infuriating for Qingfeng Li was that Black Impermanence took Yama King from his hands. He wished to be an Ancient Martial Artist so he could ground Black Impermanence into dust.

Barely suppressing his fury, Qingfeng Li took out the nine silver needles and pierced them into Ruyan Liu’s acupuncture points. This was hard for him to perform in his current wounded condition, but the baby’s life was on the line. He gritted his teeth in pain and turned the needles with his last strength.

To save the baby, Qingfeng Li cut his finger and squeezed out a drop of essence blood. He directed the blood into the acupuncture points thus giving a mysterious power to the needles.

The nine needles hummed. The baby was saved with the special effect of the essence blood.

Qingfeng Li felt lucky that he possessed essence blood which could cure the dead and grow flesh on bones. Without it, Ruyan Liu’s baby would have died.

Qingfeng Li dropped to the ground and passed out due to excessive bleeding, loss of essence blood and exhaustion.

It was a miracle itself that Qingfeng Li could last this long. The only thing that sustained him was the thought to save the baby. With that goal accomplished, he collapsed.

“Boss!” The Daoist rushed over.

“Don’t worry, Xuanji. Qingfeng is just exhausted. He will recover with a few days’ rest.” Daocang Lu diagnosed with a quick look.

Xuanji Lu drove Qingfeng Li, Wolf Fang Clan members and Ruyan Liu toward Wudang Mountain.

Qingfeng Li’s wounds could not be cured with ordinary hospital skills. It required the extraordinary methods only magical places like Wudang Mountain could offer.

Ring~

Qingfeng Li’s phone was ringing. He could not answer it in unconsciousness.

The Daoist was not prepared to answer it until he saw it was Xue Lin’s call. He pulled over and picked it up.

“Qingfeng! It’s very late and you’re still no home!” Xue Lin said anxiously.

It was 12 am in the night. Qingfeng Li was usually home at this late hour. Xue Lin was worried.

“Sister! I’m Monk.” Xueji Lu answered.

“Oh it’s you Monk. Where’s Qingfeng?” Xue Lin was surprised.

“The boss is hurt.”

“What?! Where are you? I am coming over.”

“No, don’t come. We are almost at Wudang Mountain. The boss will go home when he gets better.”

Almost at Wudang Mountain?

Xue Lin was taken aback. She was frustrated that it was impossible for her to travel that far at midnight.

“Monk, are Qingfeng’s wounds serious?” Xue Lin asked with concern.

Xuanji Lu looked at Qingfeng Li and decided to give a white lie. “It’s no big deal. The boss will be back in a couple of days. I have to go now. Bye.”

Xue Lin was unsettled. She had planned to ask more questions about Qingfeng Li’s condition. It was evident that Xuanji Lu was reluctant to talk.

Xuanji Lu drove to the foot of Wudang Mountain. Still unconscious, Qingfeng Li and Ruyan Liu were carried up to the Daoist Temple.

“Senior brother! How is Brother Li?” Xuanmiao had been sleeping. He was roused up by the upheaval and rushed over to them.

Xuanmiao was very grateful to Qingfeng Li who had saved his Shifu.

“Xuanmiao, go and heat a pail of water with herbs. I’m going to give him a sponge bath. And then please brew some tonic medicine.”Xuanji Lu told Xuanmiao what to do.

Wide-awake, Xuanmiao hurried to the kitchen at the back of the mountain. Heating water and brewing medicines had been his daily tasks.

This time, the Wolf Fang Clan was severely damaged. Not only was Qingfeng Li hurt and unconscious, but Bald Man, Death God and Alice were wounded. Their loss had never been this heavy since the day the clan was established.

It was fortunate that the elderly Daoist had come to rescue at the last minute and forced Black Impermanence to retreat, or Qingfeng Li and the whole clan would have been slaughtered.

Half an hour later, Xuanmiao brought in the hot water and Daoist cleaned the dirt and blood off Qingfeng Li. Bald Man and others all took a shower.

Monk fed Qingfeng Li some tonic after the sponge bath.

“Master, when will the boss wake up?” Monk asked Daocang Lu.

Daocang Lu coughed. “Don’t worry, Xuanji. He will come to tomorrow morning. Tell him to come for me when he wakes. I will go cure my own wounds.”

Daocang Lu asked Monk to look after Qingfeng Li. Then he walked to the back of the Temple to recover his meridians which had been wounded again in the battle with Black Impermanence.

“You go and look after master. I am here to take care of the boss.” Daoist told Xuanmiao.

Xuanmiao nodded. He walked to Daocang Lu’s room with a bowl of tonic in hands.

“Boss, please wake up.” Monk looked at Qingfeng Li, deep concern in his eyes.

In another room, Alice was looking after the unconscious Ruyan Liu. As a woman, she had known the other woman was pregnant. And the father was without question Wolf King.

Watching the exquisite Impermanence of Ruyan Liu, Alice felt a bit jealous. Despite of her envy, Alice would still take good care of Ruyan Liu because she was Wolf King’s woman.

Chapter 614: Xue Lin Wants to Go to Wudang

 

Villa No. 13, Noble Palace

Wearing white pajamas, Xue Lin could not settle for the night. Her bright eyes were clouded with concern for Qingfeng.

Xue Lin was blessed with a gorgeous figure. Her pajamas could not conceal the curves of her voluptuous breasts. With her milky white skin and sensuous curves, she was an eye-catcher wherever she went.

She paced in the hall in a pair of cotton slippers. It was 1 AM in the early morning and she was wide awake with agitation.

She had been troubled with a feeling of uneasiness ever since the call with Monk.

“Ziyi, do you think Qingfeng is in trouble?” Xue Lin asked Ziyi Miao anxiously.

Xue Lin and Ziyi Miao were now quite close after getting to know each other for a while. Xue Lin called Ziyi Miao by her first name, and today when some villains tried to hit on Xue Lin, Ziyi Miao drove them away with her whip.

Xue Lin was very grateful to Ziyi Miao’s protection. As a modern woman with contemporary ideas about ranks, Xue Lin regarded Ziyi Miao as a friend instead of a servant.

“Please rest assured, Mistress. My master will be fine.” Ziyi Miao answered.

She had absolute confidence in Qingfeng Li. After all, he was the African Wolf King who had defeated her with only one move at Miaojiang.

“Ziyi, I have told you many times not to call me Mistress. I am one year older than you so please call me Sister Xue.”

“Qingfeng Li is my master and you are his wife. I should call you mistress.”

“I will get mad if you call me mistress again. Just call me sister Xue.”

“Well…sister Xue.” With a slight frown, Ziyi Miao submitted reluctantly.

Xue Lin smiled at her submission. The smile dropped from her pretty face when her thoughts turned to Qingfeng Li. She had a bad feeling about him.

“Ziyi, I am very worried about my husband. Let’s travel to Wudang Mountain.” Her uneasiness was getting worse as time went on.

Ziyi Miao frowned, “it is now one o’clock in the morning and Wudang Mountain is quite far from here. It’s better if we go tomorrow.”

Xue Lin shook her head. She said in agitation, “Ziyi, I have a bad feeling. I need you to go with me to Wudang Mountain now.”

Moved with Xue Lin’s concern for her master, Ziyi Miao felt a little envious of Qingfeng Li for having such a devoted wife.

“Ok, I will go with you.”

It was one o’clock in the early morning. The community was quiet with people deep in sleep.

It had begun to snow. The chilling night was dead silent without any movement of people or animals.

Ziyi Miao opened the door and frowned at the flying snowflakes.

“It’s snowing now, sister Xue, and it’s also one o’clock in the morning, how about we go tomorrow?” Ziyi Miao tried to dissuade Xue Lin.

“No. I have to go to my husband right now.” Determination was written on Xue Lin’s attractive face.

When Monk answered the phone call, Xue Lin had known something was wrong. If Qingfeng Li had only been injured, he would have picked up this call. Only one situation would have made him unable perform this simple act and that was unconsciousness.

Xue Lin was a smart woman. She made a correct judgement about Qingfeng Li’s unconsciousness with only the fact that he could not pick up the phone. She drew the further conclusion that Qingfeng Li must have been severely wounded if he was in a coma.

Her smart deduction was extremely close to the real situation.

Sensing Xue Lin’s determination, Ziyi had to obey. She asked Xue Lin to dress warmly.

“It’s freezing!”

Chilling gusts rushed in with snowflakes the moment Xue Lin open the door.

Xue Lin went back to her bedroom on the second floor and came down in a heavy goose feather parka.

“Let’s go!” Xue Lin drove the car out of the garage and toward the direction of Wudang Mountain.

The snowfall was getting heavier. The road was soon covered in white and some places got slippery due to the low temperatures in the early morning.

.

Filled with worry for Qinfeng Li, Xue Lin drove fast. Several times the car almost flew into the roadside gutters.

“The road is slippery with snow. You must slow down.” As the Miaojiang Saintess, Ziyi Miao had never driven a car and seldom travel in one. Her heart was in her mouth when Xue Lin drove recklessly on the slippery snowy road.

Crash! The moment Ziyi Miao voiced her caution, the car slipped and collided with a stone column at the roadside. The column was chipped and the front of the car was distorted.

Xue Lin’s head would have crashed into the front window but for the air bags springing forward to cushion her. Even with that protection did she feel the concussion acutely on her head.

Luckily it was just past one o’clock in the morning and the road was almost empty in this snowy weather. They would have been in big trouble if they had hit people.

Xue Lin tried to turn the car around but the car was dead. The circuits in the front were damaged.

“We can’t make it to Wudang Mountain. You must call the car maintenance company to repair the car.” Ziyi Miao suggested.

With frustration written on her face, Xue Lin looked quite like Qingfeng Li at this moment. She could do nothing but to call the maintenance staff.

Thanks to the early hour and the snowy weather, the car repair men were reluctant to come. Xue Lin had to promise a reward tripling the usual price before one maintenance guy took the offer.

…

At the same time, Qingfeng Li was still in coma, totally oblivious of everything around him. If he had known that Xue Lin crashed her car in an effort to get to him in the snowy weather, he would never have let her come.

Monk fed Qingfeng Li tonic medicines at predefined intervals. The tonic was made of precious herbs collected in the uncontaminated areas deep in the mountain. The high quality of the herbs ensured their results.

The curing energy contained in the tonic flowed into his body and nurtured his wounded skin, muscles and meridians.

Absorbing the curing power of the herbs, Qingfeng Li regained some color in his face. With qi and blood restored, his breathing became long and steady.

He was still unconscious, but his body was repairing itself.

Chapter 615: Monk Welcomes Xue Lin

 

The second day. The snow was getting bigger and a thick layer of snow covered the ground.

Ruyan Liu opened her eyes, still feeling fuzzy.

Both she and her unborn child were hurt the day before. Thanks to Qingfeng Li’s excellent medical skills, they were saved by his acupuncture and essence blood.

“Miss Liu, you are awake.” Alice blinked her bright eyes, pleased. She knew the boss would be thrilled to know this woman had come out of coma.

Ruyan Liu nodded, “Who are you?”

She only knew Qingfeng Li and Monk and had not met other members of the Wolf Fang Clan. The foreign woman was gorgeous with blue eyes and blond hair.

“Miss Liu, I am Alice, a subordinate of the Wolf King.” Alice introduced herself with a smile.

Ruyan Liu suddenly remembered that Qingfeng Li was seriously wounded before she lost her consciousness. Anxiously, she struggled up and tried to get off the bed.

“You just came out of coma. You need rest.” Alice tried to stop her.

Ruyan Liu shook her head. “No. I must see Qingfeng Li.”

Ruyan Liu was determined. Alice gave up and led her to visit Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li was still unconscious; but he regained some color in his face and his breathing was stable. He was quickly recovering from his wounds.

“Why are you here?” Monk was surprised.

“Monk, I am here to check on Qingfeng.”

“His wounds have been cured and he will recover very soon. You take some rest and I am here to look after him.”

“No. I want to nurse him.” Ruyan Liu insisted.

Pale-faced, Ruyan Liu still felt a bit dizzy. Despite all the discomforts, she found a towel and put it in the hot water. She wrung it dry and rubbed it across Qingfeng’s forehead with care.

At the same time, Xue Lin had arrived at Wudang Mountain. Due to the car repair and the snowy roads, it took them almost a whole night to get to their destination.

“Ziyi, we must climb the mountain.” Without taking a meal or rest, Xue Lin and Ziyi began their way up to the mountain.

Snow covered the winding mountain paths and the rocks and trees along them. Some snow blocks dropped precariously close to them. Ziyi Miao guarded Xue Lin carefully and sent the falling chunks of snow away before they hit Xue Lin.

After two hours, a majestic Daoist Temple came into their sight. Built with gray bricks and green tiles, the temple looked ancient and heavy. In the yard in front of the Temple was a huge incense burner. Due to the snow, there were no visitors today and the burner stood empty.

Xue Lin and Ziyi Miao were preparing to enter the Temple when they were stopped by a little Daoist. He was a handsome boy of about 15 to 16 years old.

“It’s snowing today. The Temple is closed and is not receiving visitors.” The little Daoist told them.

Of course, it was just an excuse. The real reason was that Qingfeng Li needed a quiet place to rest. The little Daoist didn’t want outside disturbance.

“Little brother, we need to go in to find someone. Please let us in.” Ziyi Miao was amused by the pretty little Daoist.

“I am an adult, not anyone’s little brother.”

“Oh, an adult. Do you have a name?”

“Of course I do. My name is Xuanmiao.”

“Xuanmiao, can you let us in?” Ziyi Miao asked, looking saintly pure.

Xuanmiao shook his head, “No. The Temple is closed today. No one is allowed in.”

Irritated with Xuanmiao’s stubbornness, Ziyi Miao prepared to go in by force. Xue Lin held her back and shook her head, thinking it unwise to enter a Monk temple by force.

“Xuanmiao, I am here for Qingfeng Li. Monk is Qingfeng Li’s brother and I know him too.”

What a beautiful big sister!

Gazing at Xue Lin’s striking face and charming eyes, Xuanmiao blushed.

With countless people coming here to burn incense and pray for happiness, he had seen his share of beauties; but none of them could come close to the woman standing before him. She looked a goddess to him.

Seeing Xuanmiao’s blushed face and avoiding eyes, Xue Lin was amused. “Xuanmiao, can you let me in?” She repeated.

Shame on me! Why do I become speechless in front of a goddess? Xuanmiao scolded himself silently.

“Sister Goddess, do you indeed know my Shixiong Monk?” Xuanmiao asked in surprise.

Xue Lin nodded. She was a bit confused; it was the first time that someone called her by “Goddess”.

“Senior brother asked me to stop anyone from entering the Temple. Since you said you knew him, please wait here while I report to him.” Still red faced, Xuanmiao ran to the back of the mountain in embarrassment.

“You’ve charmed the little Daoist out of his wits.” Ziyi Miao laughed.

Xue Lin was also amused. Xuanmiao was only a teenage boy and it was natural for him to be amazed by her beauty.

Shortly, Xuanmiao came out with Monk.

“Sister, why are you here?” Monk ran forward and asked respectfully.

He had told Xue Lin on the phone not to come and that the boss would return in a couple of days. When she saw that the boss was still unconscious, Xue Lin would for sure know that she had been lied to.

“I’ve had a bad feeling so I have to check up on my husband.” Xue Lin explained.

“Goddess, you’re married?!” Xuanmiao wrinkled his cute nose, startled by the news.

Slap!

Monk hit Xuanmiao on the head with his right palm. “Xue Lin’s husband is the boss Qingfeng Li. Don’t call her Goddess. Call her sister.”

Cowering from his Shixiong, Xuanmiao said timidly, “Sister.”

Xue Lin acknowledged him with a nod.

What a happy man Brother Li is! He has such a beauty for a wife. Xuanmiao was filled with admiration.

“Monk, please take me to Qingfeng.” There was a trace of anxiety in Xue Lin’s voice.

With the delay caused by the snow and the car crash, Xue Lin was impatient. She couldn’t wait to see Qingfeng Li.

Monk nodded, preparing to lead her to Qingfeng Li’s room. His expression changed when a thought struck him, “Ruyan Liu was right now in Qingfeng Li’s room, nursing him.”
