Chapter 940: Chapter 92: The Pretentious Fox Guy
At first, Yun Sheng didnât take it seriously. Who would know Ye Huliâs constitution better than Yun Sheng?
Everyone says if you pretend too much, youâll get struck by lightning. Ye Huli is shameless and likes to pretend, yet he never got struck by the Dark Sky Thorn. This bastard must be faking.
Back in Banana Leaf Village, when Ye Beiming was just a child, he could recover from severe injuries overnight, like a little calf.
Over the years, as his cultivation improved, his self-healing abilities should only have gotten faster.
This time when he went to Hou Qin, even though he was in half-beast form, he didnât have fatal wounds.
But after waiting for a few days, Yun Sheng noticed there was no sign of Ye Beiming waking up. Moreover, Bo Boâs condition was critical as well. Yun Sheng barely rested, tending to them both for several days, growing more haggard by the day.
People came to persuade her to rest, but Yun Sheng refused to agree no matter what.
When Hei Yao wanted to take Ye Beiming to the Eight Desolates continent, Yun Shengâs heart skipped a beat.
Strange feelings madly grew in her heart, making her realize one thing, she... was probably in love with Ye Beiming.
But why, after realizing her feelings, did Ye Beiming end up like this?
He remained in his half-beast form, and Yun Sheng, to keep it a secret, didnât allow anyone near Ye Beimingâs sleeping quarters.
It was only afterward that Yun Sheng learned Ye Beiming had desperately fused seven Kirin Blood Crystals to save her.
And among them, he forcibly fused three within three days. Even with Ye Beimingâs Emperor-level physique, he couldnât quickly digest the hostility in the Black Qilin Blood Crystals.
Using Shennongâs Eyes to examine him, Yun Sheng found that Ye Beimingâs blood vessels and organs were wrapped in black blood like clots of filth.
She tried every method and even used the Medical Soul Divine Needle, but couldnât clear the black blood.
She feared that if one day, the black blood completely consumed Ye Beiming, would he eventually...
Yun Sheng didnât dare to think further.
Yun Shengâs appearance was seen by Divine Wind, who was anxious but helpless.
Especially seeing Yun Shengâs cheeks grow thinner day by day, Divine Windâs heart ached.
Divine Wind didnât speak, but could see it clearly in his heart.
Having spent three years with Yun Sheng, Divine Wind saw her every day, cherished her, but she had never cared for him like this.
This kind of Yun Sheng, he had never seen before.
Perhaps only Ye Beiming could make Yun Sheng show such an unknown side of herself.
Divine Wind felt bitter and helpless, leaving under the excuse of Xianju Countryâs matters.
After bidding farewell to Divine Wind, Yun Sheng returned to the Imperial Palace.
On the sickbed, Ye Beiming was still unconscious.
Yun Sheng sat beside him, gently brushing Ye Beimingâs face.
His face still had patches of black Qilin scales, yet his incredibly handsome features were still clearly visible.
Yun Shengâs eyes stung slightly, and she softly said, "Ye Huli, canât you wake up quickly? How can you be so shameless? You said if I were tired, everything would be on you. How can you leave me alone?"
Only when Ye Beiming was gravely injured and unconscious did Yun Sheng realize how important he was to her.
This man, in her most vulnerable and critical times, had stood before her multiple times.
This time...
"Ye Huli, wake up quickly. As long as you wake up, Iâll agree to anything you say. You promised, with mountains and rivers as betrothal gifts, youâd marry me..." Yun Sheng leaned over Ye Beiming, the hard beast armor hurt her cheek, and tears flowed from her eyes.
In a haze, Yun Sheng fell asleep.
While Yun Sheng slept, a gentle light illuminated within her body.
It was the Sky Fox Relics.
The light from the relics merged into Ye Beimingâs body, and his fingers, which hadnât moved for days, twitched slightly.
After some time, Yun Sheng felt a tickle on her cheek.
It was as if a feather was brushing against her face.
Exhausted, Yun Sheng mumbled, swatting that annoying feather away.
But the moment she swatted, her hand was caught by another strong, warm hand.
Yun Sheng awoke with a start.
Her eyes widened as Ye Beimingâs exquisitely charming face stared greedily at her sleeping form.
He had never seen Yun Sheng asleep before. The first thing he saw upon waking was the person beside him with tears still at the corners of her eyes.
Seeing Yun Sheng much thinner, with a face full of exhaustion and brows knitted with unresolved worries, his heart ached and he felt guilty.
He was supposed to protect her, to let her live free of worries, yet this time, he was the one who burdened her.
Yun Sheng was in disbelief, Ye Huli was... alright?
In Ye Beimingâs eyes, Yun Shengâs expression was endearingly surprised and innocently adorable.
His mood improved, and while Yun Sheng was still stunned, he stole a kiss from her lips.
Once Yun Sheng realized something was off, she let out a soft whimper, ready to push Ye Beiming away, only to find herself already in his embrace.
The smoothness of her skin felt delightful to the touch.
Ye Beiming inhaled Yun Shengâs unique scent, his gray eyes darkening.
His voice was low and carried a hint of wickedness.
They had been engaged for years, yet had few intimate encounters, let alone anything more.
Saying he wasnât anxious was a lie.
A few days earlier, when Cheng Bai got married, he had covertly urged Ye Beiming that the next time he saw Yun Sheng, he should seize the opportunity, turn the engagement official.
Little Wildcat had no issues with friends and family, but her feelings were frustratingly difficult. To capture her, one had to take the initiative assertively.
Ye Beimingâs lips curled as he took advantage of his height to firmly lock Yun Sheng in place.
"Youâre awake, so let go of me. I need to check on Bo Bo..." Yun Sheng hadnât finished when her head hummed.
With practiced stealth, Ye Beiming had become quite skilled. His lips found their way, prying open Yun Shengâs clenched teeth.
Yun Shengâs face was as red as a cooked shrimp. She tried to push Ye Huli away, but her Qi Power seemed to vanish all of a sudden.
This time, Ye Beimingâs kiss was more passionate and lingering than any before.
If previous times were mere teases, after experiencing the challenge with Dugu Xiu, Ye Beiming now truly saw Yun Sheng as a woman.
He loved her, unwilling to let anyone else have intentions towards her.
His masculine breath filled her mouth, and Yun Sheng felt on the verge of suffocation.
