YM778.TV Chapter 145 - Brother, Check Her Eyes
After a moment of hesitation, he raised his hand and gently touched Li Longling\'s cheek.
Sensing the touch of the five fingers on her cheek, Li Longling stiffened and moved her right foot back a step as if she was a little scared, but her left foot still did not move.
In the books that Ling\'er read to her, it was said that when a man touched a woman\'s cheek, it was almost like asking for a kiss.
But kissing was something only cultivators couples did, while this man was someone she barely knew, and since she couldn\'t see him, she didn\'t even know if he was handsome or ugly.
However, she didn\'t know why...
But she didn\'t feel repulsed by him.
This man named Ye Anping had a good scent.
This scent was different from the one she smelled in her father\'s arms, but it still made her feel at ease.
Li Longling gently moistened her lips with the tip of her tongue. After hesitating for a moment, she put her right foot back and grabbed his collar with both hands.
It\'s nothing more than a touch of the lips...
It was not a bad idea to think of it as a gift in return for him lending her his chest.
Li Longling felt Ye Anping bring his face closer.
Feeling the hot breath on her cheek like a soft itching, her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. She relaxed her clenched lips and raised her head slightly, waiting for the warm touch to fall on her lips.
However--
The kiss she waited for didn\'t come.
Instead, she felt that her left eyelid had been opened...
?
"..."
Ye Anping\'s face closed in.
With his thumb and forefinger, he propped open the left eyelid of Li Longling, exposing her blank gray eyes for closer inspection.
At first glance, it looked like a cataract.
There seemed to be a layer of gray fog on the pupils, which were very blurry and unclear, and there was some white pus in the tears just now.
But this was the world of the Immortals, after all.
He had to confirm whether Li Longling had eyeballs or not.
After all, the model designer in the game was lazy and didn\'t make her eyeballs at all.
If you took the game model out and opened her eyelids, there would be two dark holes.
And if there were no eyeballs, then there were no meridians on the eyes, so his physiotherapy technique couldn\'t possibly work.
Ye Anping examined her for a while and then said, "Can you move your eyes from side to side?"
"Oh..." Li Longling pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed. "Yes."
"Okay, then..."
After Ye Anping watched her pupils turn left and right, he condensed a ray of golden light on his fingertips, then raised his hand in front of her eyes.
"Can you see any light? Or is it completely dark?"
"Well... it\'s completely... completely dark." Li Longling answered weakly. "Master Ye, my father brought at least two hundred doctors before, but... they all said no, there was nothing they could do..."
"Has Doctor Zhang from the Black Star Sect seen you?"
"He saw me. Dr. Zhang said that there is a cure, but it needs a kind of spiritual grass called Hundred Souls Spiritual Eye Grass, which is extremely rare in the world. My father couldn\'t find one for the past ten years."
Ye Anping thought for a while and used his physiotherapy method to check Li Longling\'s meridians. He found that the meridians in her eyes had not disappeared and felt a little more confident.
However, he wasn\'t prepared to promise Li Longling something he wasn\'t 100% sure he could do.
"Alright, I understand."
"...Hmm."
"Eh--" Ye Anping let out a long breath, turned to look at Li Feng, and then asked, "Are you feeling better now?"
Li Longling nodded shakily. "Yes."
"Then, go back and have a good night\'s rest. Tonight, I will instruct the guards to take care of the funeral arrangements in the city. Tomorrow, you have to take charge of it yourself. Sister Xiao will be by your side to help you. She is the Young Lady of the Black Star Sect and has no reason to be eyeing the Dragon House, so you can trust her."
"Well..." Li Longling nodded blankly, then felt something was wrong and quickly shook her head. "No! Don\'t bother Master Ye, I will go find the mansion guards in a moment..."
"..."
Looking at Li Longling\'s face, Ye Anping shook his head, then put the Heavenly Splitting Sword in Li Longling\'s hand.
"Eh?"
"Your father\'s sword, known as Heavenly Splitting Sword. You should be more familiar with it than I am."
"...Oh."
"I\'ll accompany you to find the chief of guards."
"No... Master Ye, you\'d better go now... I\'ll ask Ling\'er to arrange a guest room for you... You should go and rest."
"..."
Ye Anping didn\'t reply but took her hand and led her through the half-moon garden gate.
However, just as they stepped out of the gate---
Clatter--
The rattling of dozens of armors clashing caused Li Longling to take a step back in fright, gripping Ye Anping\'s hand tightly.
Judging by the appearance of these people, they must be veterans who had served the Dragon House for many years. They should all be Li Feng\'s cronies.
"Your subordinate, Zhang He, at your service, Young Lady."
Ye Anping didn\'t say anything, but he took his hand out of Li Longling\'s and stepped aside.
Noticing the moment Ye Anping walked away, Li Longling was momentarily a bit flustered but quickly composed herself, took a deep breath, and asked, "What\'s the situation in the city?"
"Reporting to Young Lady, the blood spirits in the city have been cleared as much as possible, and the cicada shells of the demonic cultivators in the three urban districts have also been sealed and put under guard."
"Good..." Li Longling pondered for a while before saying, "Move all the injured to the Great Hall in the east district to receive care and ask the maids from the inner mansion to go over and help. Then, tell Chi Yuan to take fifty men to the mountains and forests around the Dragon House to continue eliminating the blood spirits. How much were the Duchun City and the surrounding villages affected?"
"We don\'t know for now."
"Then, you take the guards of the west district to Duchun City and the surrounding villages to check the situation and leave thirty people with me to close the Defensive Mountain Formation. Then, send Zhong Chengcheng, Shi Bohou, and Zhuang Wenshan, each with thirty people, to conduct a thorough search of the Dragon House from south to north, searching for the remnants of the demonic cultivators who may still be hiding."
"Yes, Young Lady!!"
"Finally... Ling\'er."
"I\'m here."
"You ask four guards to work with you to seal my father\'s cicada shell in the coffin, protect it with cold spirit beads, and store it in the back hall. No one is allowed to enter without my permission."
Hearing these words, the guards who were kneeling on the ground bowed their heads, and the leader gritted his teeth. "Young Lady, Master Li has really..."
"...Yes."
"Then, that demonic cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage..."
?
Li Longling was slightly stunned, not understanding.
At this time, Ye Anping stepped forward and interrupted. "Master Li shattered his own Nascent Soul to completely destroy the Nascent Soul demonic cultivator until only half of that evil body remained. Young Lady Xiao of the Black Star Sect buried and burned him with the Soul Capture Talisman, so there\'s no need to worry."
"So..." The chief guard\'s eyes showed sadness and anger, and then he cupped his hands facing Li Longling and said, "Young Lady, we have followed Master Li for a hundred years. Now that Master Li ascended, we will faithfully follow you. Also, please accept our condolences."
"Alright..." Li Longling nodded slightly. "Let\'s get things done now."
"Yes, Young Lady!"
