Chapter 1368: Chapter 1368: Ding Dong, The Blackhearted Medicine Pot Arrives! 27

Su Yan raised her hand and touched his face.

Feng Xuan paused in his coughing, a gleam flashing in his eyes.

He looked at Su Yan’s hand.

"What did the host go do?"

"I went to look for someone."

Feng Xuan leaned on the table, coughed twice, and released his hold on Su Yan.

He looked at Su Yan, his eyes deep and somber.

"The host probably intentionally left me here to find a more powerful contracted beast."

Su Yan blinked; wasn’t this about what he had done just now?

How come he was questioning her with such confidence?

Su Yan turned her head to look at the ground covered with bodies.

Feng Xuan saw her completely indifferent attitude, and his anger grew.

He leaned on the table, coughing more violently.

"Is the host regretting coming back so early?

Perhaps if you had come back later, a powerful human would have killed me.

Or maybe, I would have died from illness without anyone’s help.

The host could just discard me and find another contracted beast without worries."

Su Yan remained silent.

It’s not that she didn’t want to talk.

She simply didn’t know what to say.

How did he come up with this nonsense?

Su Yan looked at his frail figure, as if he could collapse at any moment.

She wanted to support him, but he shifted, refusing to let her touch him until she explained.

Su Yan watched him for a moment.

Then she lowered her head and pulled over the chair beside her to sit down.

From the teapot, she poured herself a cup of tea.

If he doesn’t want to be touched?

Then she won’t touch him.

She would drink some water before sorting things out with him.

Su Yan’s mind kept returning to the man she encountered.

If she met him again, she’d only have a sixty percent chance of winning.

Ancient Divine Beast, Taotie?

Oh, she had once become a descendant of Taotie, tough and invulnerable.

The word Taotie, to some extent, represents absolute power.

Xiao Hua watched them fuss about while pondering the novels and dramas she had seen.

For a long time, she couldn’t fit the two of them into any story.

Until Xiao Hua suddenly brightened up.

"Host, host, you two are like the domineering CEO and his frail little wife~~"

Su Yan was taken aback.

"Huh?"

Xiao Hua indulged in her imagination.

"Host, your little wife seems sad, why not console him?"

Su Yan looked up to find Feng Xuan standing there, leaning on the table, his body rigid.

His head bowed, surrounded by loneliness.

This bloody scene was of his making, why was he sad?

Then she heard Feng Xuan speak in a very weak voice.

"Host, I won’t kill anymore in the future, can you not go looking for other contracted beasts?"

His voice was bitter, and his lips quivered as he spoke.

Su Yan heard him still fretting over her non-existent search for another contracted beast.

And he was truly sad.

He was serious, not making a scene.

Su Yan stood up from her seat at this moment.

She walked up to him, her voice earnest.

"I never intended to find another contracted beast."

She hugged him.

"I have never thought of you as something I could discard at will."

She tiptoed and kissed his closed eyes.

"You are very important to me. No matter what you do, I will never abandon you. This is my promise to you."

Feng Xuan suddenly opened his eyes.

His gaze intense as he looked at Su Yan.

As if something within him had been unlocked.
