The charming widow of the Marquis's mansion: The stable boy carries the flag and raises the dra

Wang Long grasped Xu Wanyun's hand, squeezed it gently, and said softly.

"It's nothing, just a superficial injury."

As he spoke, he took out several bottles of pills from his storage ring, poured out a few, and put them into his mouth.

The medicine took effect in his body, and a warm current flowed to his limbs and bones. The wound on his chest began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He took out another bottle and handed it to Xu Wanyun.

"You eat too."

Xu Wanyun took it, poured out two pills, and swallowed them.

As the medicine took effect, a trace of color finally returned to her pale face.

Wang Long then took out a soft animal hide from his storage ring, spread it on the ground, and took out a few pieces of dry food and a pot of water from it.

"Eat something first to regain your strength."

Xu Wanyun did not refuse.

The two sat against the cave wall, eating their dry rations silently with water.

The light of the spirit lamp flickered in the cave, casting the shadows of the two people onto the damp rock wall, where they overlapped.

Little Chick crawled out of Wang Long's arms, perched on his shoulder, and also got a small piece of dry food.

It held it in its two little paws, pecking at it with tiny bites, its black grape-like eyes half-closed, clearly exhausted.

Little Fairy suffered a mass destruction and fell into a deep sleep within the Heavenly Gang Sword.

Outside the cave, the roars of the monsters continued.

This time, the sound was closer.

Heavy footsteps could be faintly heard passing over the cave ceiling, causing pebbles to fall from the rock walls.

Wang Long raised his head, looked at the dome, and remained calm.

He had sensed it long ago.

The monsters are conducting a thorough search of the area.

Wang Long understood

The Grandmaster-level magical beast mobilized tens of thousands of low-level magical beasts.

They are weaving a large net to catch themselves in one fell swoop.

"Uncle Long".

Xu Wanyun's voice interrupted his thoughts.

Wang Long turned his head and looked at her.

Xu Wanyun lowered her head and held the water bag in both hands.

Her voice was soft, filled with deep remorse.

"It's my fault for dragging you down with me."

"If it weren't for me, you could have gotten away unscathed."

"You won't be trapped here, you won't get hurt, and neither will Little Bird..."

"Wanyun".

Wang Long interrupted her, reaching out to gently lift her chin.

Eyes facing each other.

Those clear, cold eyes were brimming with tears.

Wang Long looked at her, his tone calm yet firm.

"Don't say things like that."

"You are my woman, it is only right and proper for me to save you."

"Even if I had to do it all over again, I would still make the same choice."

Xu Wanyun's tears fell silently.

She threw herself into Wang Long's arms, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, buried her face in his chest, and sobbed.

Her delicate body trembled slightly.

Wang Long put his arm around her, gently patting her back with one hand, without saying a word.

At this point, saying anything is superfluous.

The footsteps outside the cave gradually faded into the distance.

But Wang Long knew they would come back.

This place is only temporarily safe.

I don't know when it will be discovered.

He looked down at Xu Wanyun in his arms.

Wang Long's fingers ran through her loose, long hair, gently combing it.

"Wanyun".

"Um?"

Xu Wanyun raised her head and looked at him with teary eyes.

Wang Long looked at her swollen, red eyes, her pale face, and the bloodstains on her lips from where she had bitten them.

My heart softened, and an inexplicable impulse surged within me.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips.

With long-suppressed desire and a resolute, deep kiss.

Xu Wanyun's body stiffened abruptly.

She then closed her eyes, wrapped her arms around his neck, and responded passionately.

At that moment, the roars of the monsters, the footsteps, and the sounds of searching outside the cave all disappeared.

It was as if the whole world had shrunk down to just the two of them.

I don't know how much time passed.

Lip points.

Both of them were a little out of breath.

Xu Wanyun's cheeks were flushed, her beautiful eyes were misty, and her lips were slightly swollen; she looked extremely charming.

She leaned against Wang Long's chest, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, and suddenly spoke.

"Uncle Long".

"Um?"

"Will we... be able to get out of here alive?"

Her voice was soft, tinged with uncertainty.

Wang Long remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking.

"able!"

His voice was calm and firm, as if he were stating a fact.

"I promise you, I will definitely get you out of here alive!"

Xu Wanyun smiled, but her eyes reddened again.

She sat up from his lap and faced him.

Those once clear and cold eyes were now filled with tenderness and resolve.

"Uncle Long".

Her voice was soft, yet every word was clear.

"Wanyun wants to be your woman."

Wang Long was stunned; this was indeed an opportunity.

"Right now!"

Xu Wanyun looked at him and said, word by word.

"I don't know if we'll make it out alive."

"I don't want to leave with regrets."

"I want to belong to you completely before I die."

Wang Long looked at her, at the undisguised love in her eyes, and felt a mix of emotions.

He reached out and gently cupped her face in his hands.

"Wanyun, you won't die."

"None of us will die."

"But I accept your kind intentions."

He lowered his head and kissed her lips again.

This time, it was even gentler and more tender.

The light of the spirit lamp flickered in the cave, casting the shadows of the two people onto the rock wall.

Little Chick flew off Wang Long's shoulder and landed in a corner of the cave, its back to the two of them, covering its eyes with its wings.

It is small, but very sensible.

I will absolutely not watch anything I shouldn't watch.

Outside the cave, the sound of monster footsteps rang out again.

But this time, Wang Long ignored him.

Immersed in the enthusiastic interaction with Xu Wanyun.

Xu Wanyun hugged Wang Long tightly, her voice charming and alluring.

"Uncle Long, I want to be your woman..."

I don't know how much time passed.

In Wang Long's mind, that long-lost mechanical voice finally rang out.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host! The Righteous Qi Technique has been successfully infused and has reached its peak!]

Wang Long could feel that earth-shattering changes were taking place within his body.

The latent potential that had been dormant deep within their bones and had never been activated erupted completely at this moment.

They surged forth from the marrow like a burst dam, flowing through the meridians to the limbs and bones.

Wherever it passes, the meridians are widened, strengthened, and reshaped.

Flesh and blood were burning, bones were being tempered, and every cell was frantically absorbing that power.

His aura began to rise.

Mid-stage Ninth Rank – Late-stage Ninth Rank – Peak Ninth Rank!

boom!!!

An incredibly terrifying and suffocating pressure erupted from Wang Long's body, sweeping outwards in all directions!

The entire cave was trembling violently, with loose rocks falling from the rock walls and cracks spreading outwards like a spider web!

Wang Long was overjoyed!

Become!
