[THE HOST IS SUGGESTED TO LISTEN TO THE ADVICE OF THE PROTAGONIST AND ENSURE HIS CONSCIOUSNESS REMAINS INTACT. THE HOST'S VITAL SIGNS ALL POINT TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE HOST IS AT THE BRINK OF DEATH! EXTREME CAUTION IS ADVISED!]
Wow, thanks for the fucking reminder that I'm about to die... fuck it, I knew that something bad was gonna happen once I started to associate myself with this woman, but come on...
As the silvery-white light struggled to stabilize his condition, Xinyue continuously whispered words into his ears. At this point, he couldn't make them out clearly because his eardrums seemed to have exploded, but based on the expression on her face, it was clear that he was in a terrible situation.
Alright... let's calm down. Focus on healing... we can do this...
Huang Shi forced himself to sit cross-legged as he breathed in and out with his eyes closed, circulating his Nine Sun Immortal Codex to its maximum power. Massive amounts of spiritual energy rushed straight toward his body, improving the natural ability of his body to heal, while at the same time, his crimson lightning forced his body to become stable, preventing his injuries from worsening further.
After doing this for a few minutes, he finally opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Bai Xinyue right in front of his face. Both of her hands were holding onto his arms as she tried to push her silvery-white spiritual energy to the limit, trying to improve his physical condition and prevent him from dying from his injuries.
Seeing the incredibly serious look on her face, Huang Shi tried opening his mouth a few times, struggling to get the words out, but eventually, he was able to speak a couple of words to her, which forced her attention back to his face.
"Xi-Xinyue, I-I'm fine. Y-you need to get out of here. T-that woman must still be here somewhere. You need to r-run away!"
Seeing Huang Shi forcing himself to speak made Xinyue's expression turn grim, and she instantly roared at him.
"Shut up! Be quiet! If your injuries flare up and you die, I swear to God, I will bring you back to life and kill you again just to make a point! So please, just shut up and let me do my job!"
Seeing the terrifying look in her eyes made Huang Shi gulp as goosebumps appeared all over his skin despite his injuries, and a hint of fear seeped into his heart.
Fuck... I'm literally about to die... and I just got scolded... damn...
Seeing that instead of making him feel better, her words actually increased his anxiety, Bai Xinyue quickly changed her tone, going from hard and extremely domineering to soft and gentle in an instant.
"Don't speak. Please don't speak. Just let me do my job, okay? Focus on stabilizing your condition. Don't die. You can't die. Please don't die."
Seeing the insane look of concern on Bai Xinyue's face—one that bordered on madness—he quickly shut his mouth, as quite frankly, he didn't know which side of Bai Xinyue he preferred: the crazy, domineering lover or the soft but insane sweetheart.
Shit... I'm really gonna go crazy at this rate... I... I need rest...
All of a sudden, his injuries—which he had barely been able to stabilize with the help of Xinyue's spiritual energy—suddenly flared up. Blood poured out of all of his wounds, including his mouth this time, as he suddenly suffered a Qi Deviation.
Fucking hell... a Qi Deviation? Right now? Really? Do you actually want me to die, you damn universe?!
Obviously, he was not the only one who noticed his suddenly severe condition. Bai Xinyue felt like tears were about to drop from her eyes as she started to shiver.
"W-what's happening? What's happening to you? Why is your condition becoming worse?!"
[Goodbye, Host!]
Just as he was about to truly pass away into the afterlife and die for good, a massive amount of lifeforce suddenly forced its way into his body. Without him even knowing how it happened, a pill appeared inside of his mouth before melting and passing through his throat, spreading through his body and meridians.
WHOOSH!
As the lifeforce spread throughout all parts of his body, he quickly scrambled to circulate his Nine Sun Immortal Codex, making sure to focus on healing and rejuvenation.
All of his wounds then started to heal at an extremely rapid rate; his bones started to mend and move back into their proper places, his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth stopped bleeding altogether, and even the injuries to his skin disappeared as if they had never even happened.
After a few minutes, all of his injuries from the short battle had disappeared. In fact, he even felt his cultivation base improve by a substantial amount.
I'm pretty sure that if I cultivate for just a few more weeks, I can have another breakthrough and reach the 4th level of the Nascent Profound Realm!
Seeing that Huang Shi had not only stabilized his condition but also improved his cultivation base by a large amount, Bai Xinyue finally managed to calm herself down. She then held his right cheek with one of her hands and stared at him with her silver-gold eyes and spoke in a cold and monotone voice that sent shivers down his spine.
"You are much weaker than me, and yet you dare send me away? If you try to do that again, I will skin you alive and make you a decoration for our house so our kids can remember that a stupid father like you existed!"
What in the fuck?! I thought this girl had calmed down. Fucking hell, what kind of imagination does she even have!
Seeing the crazed look in her eyes, Huang Shi gulped as he instantly nodded his head like a rattling drum or a chicken pecking at rice in the ground, clearly trying his best to show her that he understood.
