Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 590 Bai Xiuxiu: He is a good person

Inside the governor's mansion in Tianhai City.

"Hiss~"

Wu Siduo opened her eyes wearily, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling. Her thoughts were still a bit muddled, and for a moment she couldn't tell where she was.

"Am I not dead yet?"

Wu Siduo murmured softly, her voice tinged with an undeniable weakness. She propped herself up, trying to assess her condition. Apart from a slight depletion of soul power and a feeling of weakness in her body, she seemed to be otherwise fine.

"Click."

Just then, the bedroom door slowly opened with a soft sound. Wu Siduo subconsciously turned her head and saw Nan Fusheng carrying an exquisite plate, walking steadily in.

"Hey, Wu Siduo, you're awake. Then drink this bowl of medicine." Nan Fusheng placed the plate on the bedside table and said to Wu Siduo, who was still somewhat dazed.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Seeing Wu Siduo standing still, just staring blankly at him, Nan Fusheng couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Nasita had already given her treatment. Logically, Wu Siduo's body should be fine now, so why is she acting so dazed? Could it be that she injured her brain?

That shouldn't be the case. He had also parasitized the violent insect in Wu Siduo's brain at the same time, and according to the information transmitted by the violent insect, Wu Siduo's mental sea was very stable.

"Feed? Feed? Wu Siduo, are you alright?" Nan Fusheng waved his hand in front of Wu Siduo's face and asked with some concern.

"what!"

Wu Siduo suddenly cried out, her voice filled with surprise and excitement. She flashed forward like a black lightning bolt, lunging into Nan Fusheng's arms.

Amidst screams, she tightly hugged his neck, her long legs wrapping around his waist.

Then, she bit his shoulder roughly, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed. The tears flowed like a burst dam, as if to release all the pain, grievances, and fear she had endured during this time.

Startled by her sudden pounce, Nan Fusheng was thrown onto the bed. He offered no resistance, simply embracing Wu Siduo's delicate body and letting her weep in his arms.

Nan Fusheng gently patted Wu Siduo's back, trying to soothe her emotions. But Wu Siduo couldn't control herself for a long time, biting Nan Fusheng's shoulder muscles hard until his clothes were soaked with blood, and she still wouldn't let go of him.

"Okay, okay. Stop crying, loosen your grip, it hurts a little."

Feeling the excruciating pain in his shoulder, Nan Fusheng couldn't help but speak up helplessly. He didn't object to Wu Siduo venting her emotions, after all, she had just gone through so much hardship, but being bitten all the time was really unpleasant.

Upon hearing Nan Fusheng's words, Wu Siduo's pretty face instantly flushed red. A strange shyness welled up in her heart, and she reluctantly lowered her legs.

But before leaving Nan Fusheng's embrace, she bit his shoulder hard again before slowly moving away from him and sitting back on the bed.

By this time, Wu Siduo had grown into a graceful young woman. She was over 1.8 meters tall, with an astonishingly long pair of legs. Her figure was slender and well-proportioned; she looked a bit thin, but with a slim waist and rounded hips, her figure was extremely attractive.

At this moment, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, and perhaps because she had just bitten Nan Fusheng, she exuded a wild aura.

Looking at her swollen eyes, Nan Fusheng smiled with deep emotion. "It's so good to see you alive." These words were like a key, unlocking the emotional door deep within Wu Siduo's heart.

Upon hearing his words, Wu Siduo couldn't help but burst into tears again. She was such a strong girl! But after suffering such a great calamity, her emotions were almost completely broken.

At this moment, she completely let loose. She couldn't help but hug Nan Fusheng again, but this time, she was much gentler, just holding him lightly, as if searching for a sense of security.

Seeing that Wu Siduo had finally stopped biting, Nan Fusheng let her hug him and cry. He simply patted her back silently, comforting her in his own way.

After a long while, Wu Siduo reluctantly got up from Nan Fusheng's embrace, her eyes filled with gratitude and dependence. "Fusheng, did you save me?"

"Yes." Nan Fusheng nodded. "I asked a friend to help."

"What about Yiran? Have you seen Yiran?" Wu Siduo asked hurriedly.

Nan Fusheng pondered for a moment and said, "Yiran? When my friend arrived, you were the only one there; Zheng Yiran wasn't there. So, she was with you too?"

"Also, how did you suddenly appear on the outskirts of Tianhai City? If I hadn't had an inside contact in the military this time, I might not have been able to save you in time."

Wu Siduo said with a hint of bitterness, "It's like this..."

Wu Siduo didn't hide anything from Nan Fusheng, who had saved her. After all, Nan Fusheng had once been a student at Shrek Academy and was someone she could trust.

So she told Nan Fusheng everything in one go: Shrek Academy, the survivors, and everything that happened during their voyage.

"That's how it happened. In order to survive, I chose to become an Oxus..."

Wu Siduo looked dejected, her eyes filled with self-blame and confusion. As she spoke, she secretly observed Nan Fusheng's expression, seemingly worried that he might develop a prejudice against her because she had become an Oukeser.

Nan Fusheng listened quietly to Wu Siduo's story, his expression unchanged, without the slightest fluctuation. Even when Wu Siduo spoke of her transformation into Oukser, his expression remained completely the same.

After listening to Wu Siduo's story, Nan Fusheng picked up the medicinal soup and gently handed it to Wu Siduo, saying in a gentle tone, "Let's talk about this later. Right now, the most important thing is to heal your injuries."

"Okay, thank you."

Seeing Nan Fusheng's actions, Wu Siduo felt a warm current welling up in her heart. She took the medicine and began to drink it in small sips.

As the medicinal soup slowly went down her throat, Wu Siduo felt her body become warm and comfortable, and an incredibly abundant energy flowed slowly through her limbs and bones, as if nourishing her parched heart.

She could clearly feel that her body's depletion was gradually being replenished, and even her vital energy and soul power were slowly increasing. This miraculous feeling surprised her greatly.

"This medicinal soup is..."

Wu Siduo looked at the small bowl of medicinal soup in her hand with surprise, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes. When she was cultivating in the Shrek Academy's shelter, she had also consumed ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, which were the precious savings that Shrek Academy had left in the shelter in the past.

However, even the medicinal effects of a whole ancient herb might not be as potent as the medicinal soup in her hand.

"Seeing that your body lacks qi and blood, I specially asked someone to do this for you," Nan Fusheng said with a slight smile.

This medicinal soup was indeed specially made by him. He also specially added a petal of a 100,000-year-old Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and Patishalan cultivated by Naxida, making it an absolute blood-nourishing wonder.

The medicinal effects of the 100,000-year-old Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum are self-evident. Even a single petal contains medicinal power that is absolutely no less than that of a ten-thousand-year-old elixir.

Patishalan is another example. It's a flower that Nasita cultivated using her energy, created after Nasita's cultivation reached 900,000 years. If an ordinary person were to consume it, it could extend their lifespan by at least ten years, and that's even for the lower-quality Patishalan.

Currently, some pharmaceutical companies in Tianhai City, founded by Nan Fusheng's alternate identities, are trading Patishalan with Naxida, turning them into medicines, and then selling them as health supplements after dilution and processing.

These health products are surprisingly popular in the market.

Although Wu Siduo didn't know what the medicine was made of, she knew it must be very valuable. Nan Fusheng had given her such a precious medicine without hesitation, which moved her even more.

After Wu Siduo finished her medicinal soup, her curiosity was piqued again as she watched Nan Fusheng tidying up. She asked somewhat curiously, "By the way, where are Fors and Xu Xiaoyan? I haven't seen them."

Nan Fusheng replied, "Fors went to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters. As for Xiaoyan, she went to visit relatives in her hometown of Donghai City. Well, it's getting late, you should get some rest."

"Mm." A strange look flashed in Wu Siduo's eyes, but she still nodded obediently.

……

the next morning.

As usual, Nan Fusheng arrived at the restaurant on time to have breakfast. However, the moment he stepped into the restaurant, he saw a somewhat unexpected figure - Bai Xiuxiu was sitting quietly at the table.

"Are you Miss Bai?" Nan Fusheng raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Before Bai Xiuxiu could reply, Qingque, like a cheerful little bird, immediately approached Nan Fusheng and said with great interest, "After you left yesterday, Lord Fusheng, Xiuxiu and I hit it off immediately."

"She currently has nowhere to stay in Tianhai City, so I'd like her to stay with us for a while. Is that alright?"

As she spoke, Qingque clasped her hands together, making a pleading gesture, her eyes filled with expectant light.

"Hmm..." Nan Fusheng looked at Qing Que's earnest gaze, then turned his gaze to Bai Xiuxiu beside him.

Bai Xiuxiu lowered her head slightly, her hands unconsciously clutching the hem of her clothes, a hint of nervousness in her expression. Her eyes held both expectation and unease, as if worried that her request would be rejected.

Nan Fusheng pondered for a moment, quickly weighing the pros and cons of the matter in his mind. Finally, he smiled gently and said, "Alright, I trust Qingque's judgment. Miss Bai, I hope you won't find my humble abode unpleasant."

Upon hearing Nan Fusheng's agreement, Bai Xiuxiu finally felt relieved. She looked up, her eyes sparkling with gratitude, and quickly said, "Not at all. I'm so grateful that you're willing to take me in, how could I possibly look down on you? Also, you don't need to call me Miss Bai, just call me Xiuxiu."

Nan Fusheng smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll call you Xiuxiu from now on. Xiuxiu, you can just call me Fusheng."

"How can this be?" Bai Xiuxiu asked hesitantly.

Nan Fusheng chuckled lightly, "It's nothing, just a form of address. After all, Miss Bai is so capable; having her stay in this mansion is a great advantage for me."

"Alright then, Fusheng." Seeing Nan Fusheng's unyielding attitude, Bai Xiuxiu finally didn't object. She nodded gently, a faint smile on her face, as if at this moment, she truly felt the warmth of being accepted.

"Let's sit down and eat together," Nan Fusheng said to the two of them.

"Alright." Qingque sat down eagerly, then looked at the somewhat empty dining table and asked in confusion, "Lord Fusheng, where is Lady Naxida?"

Nan Fusheng replied, "She went to the pharmaceutical company in Tianhai City. It seems she was working on some health supplements, so she left early."

Wu Siduo is currently recuperating in her room due to her injuries, while Naxida has gone outside. As for Xilin? Nan Fusheng really doesn't know where she went.

After all, as long as his clones don't cause too much trouble, he generally won't deliberately try to find out their whereabouts. In Nan Fusheng's view, his clones all have their own lives and spaces, and he respects their choices.

So, this breakfast consisted of only Nan Fusheng, Qingque, and Bai Xiuxiu, with at most one Emerald Demon Bird added.

After finishing breakfast, Nan Fusheng went to check on Wu Siduo's injuries.

"See? I told you, Lord Fusheng is easy to talk to, isn't he?" Qingque said to Bai Xiuxiu after watching Nan Fusheng walk away. Her eyes were full of pride, as if she was proud of her "success".

"Yes, he's a good person." Bai Xiuxiu nodded.

"I will also help you with your identity issue. It should be resolved in a few days. During this time, try to stay in the mansion and don't go out. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome if you are questioned," Qingque instructed Bai Xiuxiu.

"I understand. Thank you, Qingque," Bai Xiuxiu said gratefully to Qingque.

Qingque waved her hand. "It's alright, but don't forget your promise to me. These are things that need to be repaid."

"Don't worry, I will definitely work hard." Bai Xiuxiu nodded very seriously.

At this moment, Qingque, as if discovering something new and interesting, suddenly focused her gaze intently on the necklace around Bai Xiuxiu's neck. Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, and she couldn't help but ask, "Xiuxiu, are the gems on your necklace glowing?"

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Bai Xiuxiu's face instantly showed a look of astonishment. She subconsciously lowered her head, her gaze urgently falling on the necklace around her neck.

A ruby ​​necklace hung there quietly, and at that moment, the ruby ​​on the necklace was emitting a peculiar red light. The light was not dazzling, but it exuded a mysterious aura, as if telling some unknown secret.

In an instant, Bai Xiuxiu's heart tightened. The image of the person who had given her the necklace—Augustus—quickly flashed through her mind. A sense of unease spread through her, and she couldn't help but wonder: Did Augustus want to contact me?

Bai Xiuxiu knew the special significance of this necklace; it was not just an ornament, but also a tool for communication.

"Qingque, I suddenly feel a little unwell and want to rest for a while." Bai Xiuxiu tried to remain calm and make her tone sound as natural as possible.

After saying that, she didn't wait for Qingque's response and hurriedly ran towards the room that Qingque had arranged for her.
