Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

This posture is a bit too intimate.

Lin Qingzhi could clearly feel that the muscles on Chen Yang's thighs were as hard as iron.

What's worse, she was wearing nothing underneath this thin bathrobe.

The masculine scent of Chen Yang, mixed with dirt and a little sweat, went straight into her nose.

Her mind went blank, and she didn't know what to do with her hands.

"Miss Lin, are you rewarding me for my hard work by throwing yourself into my arms?"

Chen Yang didn't loosen his grip; instead, he tightened his hold on her waist.

This woman's waist is incredibly flexible, almost as supple as her soft sword.

Lin Qingzhi had never been so close to a man in her life; her fellow disciples didn't even dare to lift their heads when they saw her.

She was both ashamed and angry, and pushed hard against Chen Yang's chest with both hands.

"Let go of me! Who threw themselves at me? I twisted my ankle."

As she spoke, she struggled to get up from Chen Yang's lap.

But as soon as she moved, a piercing pain shot through her right ankle, making her gasp.

She slumped back into Chen Yang's arms, completely limp.

Chen Yang smiled and shook his head.

"Don't move around, your ankle is dislocated, the more you move it, the more swollen it will get."

As he spoke, he picked Lin Qingzhi up in his arms.

Lin Qingzhi closed her eyes in fright, thinking that Chen Yang was going to take the opportunity to do something bad.

As a result, Chen Yang simply laid her flat on the large sofa.

Then she half-squatted down beside the sofa, supporting her injured right foot with one hand.

Lin Qingzhi's toes tensed as Chen Yang's warm hand grasped her fair calves.

"Don't touch it. I'll just put some liniment on it myself. I'm a martial artist, this little injury is nothing."

Lin Qingzhi wanted to pull her foot back.

Chen Yang pressed down on her ankle, his tone becoming serious.

"What good are liniments for bruises and sprains? The cold air from under the ancient tomb has gotten into your meridians. If you don't expel the cold air, you won't be able to walk on this foot for half a month."

He didn't care whether Lin Qingzhi agreed or not, and pressed his other hand directly on her swollen ankle joint.

The Pure Yang Technique was rapidly activated, and a warm internal energy flowed through Chen Yang's fingers and into Lin Qingzhi's skin.

Lin Qingzhi was in excruciating pain, but once the warm current entered, the pain subsided by more than half.

That sour and numb sensation traveled up my calves.

She felt so comfortable that even her toes relaxed.

Unable to hold back, a soft moan escaped her lips.

As soon as the words left her mouth, Lin Qingzhi was so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear into the ground.

She, the dignified young lady of the Xingyi School, actually made such a sound in front of a strange man.

Chen Yang lowered his head, his fingers gently kneading her ankle while his mouth babbled.

"Miss Lin, your voice is quite pleasant, much better than when you were cursing people in the antique market. If you were to act cute more often, you could probably steal the hearts of all the rich kids in Jiangcheng."

Lin Qingzhi was so angry that she kicked Chen Yang's knee with her other, uninjured foot.

"Shut up and get treatment. Stop talking nonsense."

Chen Yang grabbed her left foot as she kicked him.

Chen Yang held Lin Qingzhi's two fair little feet in his hands.

This position allowed her to lie flat on the sofa, her waist slightly arched, and the hem of her bathrobe slipped down to her upper thighs.

That was a sudden burst of spring light.

Chen Yang looked at her a couple more times before putting her left foot down.

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore."

With a quick twist of his hands, a crisp cracking sound rang out, and the dislocated joint was put back in place.

Lin Qingzhi didn't even have time to feel the pain; she only felt her ankle loosen up and the swelling completely subsided.

Chen Yang stood up, walked to the coffee table, picked up a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, and took a sip.

"Miss Lin, considering that I just saved your life and treated your injuries for free, shouldn't you repay me in some way?"

Lin Qingzhi sat up from the sofa, straightened her bathrobe, and looked at Chen Yang.

"Name your price, we Lin family have plenty of money."

She felt that men who said such things were simply trying to get something in return.

Chen Yang waved his finger.

"I'm not short of money. I'm more interested in the herb garden in Baicao Valley south of your Lin family's city."

Upon hearing the words "Hundred Herbs Valley," Lin Qingzhi's expression changed completely.

"How do you know about Baicao Valley? That's my grandfather's private medicinal herb garden. Even the non-family members of the Lin family aren't allowed to go near it casually. Why are you asking about this?"

The slight goodwill she had just developed towards Chen Yang immediately turned into deep wariness.

Chen Yang put down the mineral water bottle.

"You saw it at the bottom of the ancient tomb just now. The Black Feather Organization created so many mechanical monsters just to destroy the earth's energy array core in Jiangcheng."

He sat down next to her and pointed in the direction of the south of the city.

"Let me tell you directly, the next place they're going to destroy is right in the very center of your Hundred Herbs Valley."

Upon hearing this news, Lin Qingzhi stood up from the sofa.

"That's absolutely impossible. The area around Baicao Valley is patrolled by experts from our Xingyi Sect, and there are infrared surveillance cameras inside. Even a bird flying in would be detected. How could those monsters possibly sneak in?"

Chen Yang sighed, feeling that this young lady was being protected too well.

"Can your patrolling security guards stop ordinary thieves, or those titanium alloy zombies we saw in the ancient tomb today?"

He leaned back on the sofa.

"Not to mention that their organization is full of experts in biochemical mutation. If you really try to force your way in, have you thought about how many people from your Lin family will die?"

Lin Qingzhi was speechless after Chen Yang's questions.

Indeed, if what Chen Yang said is true, and the Black Feather Organization sent those monsters to attack the medicine garden, then those security personnel with ordinary riot batons would simply be going to their deaths.

"Since you're telling me all this, you must want to go to Baicao Valley, right?"

Lin Qingzhi's mind worked quickly, and she immediately understood what Chen Yang meant.

Chen Yang nodded.

"I need to protect the array's core before they make a move, but that place is your family's private territory. I can't just barge in and alert them, so I need you to guide me and, by the way, give me a legitimate identity to blend in."

Lin Qingzhi bit her lip and thought for a while.

Baicao Valley is extremely important to the Lin family. It contains many precious medicinal herbs that are hundreds of years old, and it is the lifeblood of the Lin family.

I would rather trust it to have it than to trust it to have nothing.

"I can take you there. I need to go to the herb garden tomorrow morning to check a batch of newly ripened angelica. I can arrange for you to be my newly hired personal assistant, so I can bring you in openly and legitimately."

As she spoke, she looked up at Chen Yang's tattered clothes.

"But you need to change your clothes. Dressed like this, you won't even be able to get through the gate of the herb garden."

Chen Yang walked to the sofa, bent down, and brought his face close to Lin Qingzhi's.

His hot breath sprayed directly onto Lin Qingzhi's face.

"Clothes are easy to arrange, but Miss Lin, do you know what the phrase 'personal assistant' means?"

Lin Qingzhi was startled by his approach and leaned back.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Yang reached out and pinched the edge of Lin Qingzhi's bathrobe collar, looking down at her panicked eyes.

"What I mean is, you have to stick close to me all the time. We're just one step away from getting to know each other better. How can you possibly do your job as my assistant if we don't take that final step?"
