A weak and evil woman was exiled? The beastly husbands risked their lives to protect her

Chapter 227 Little Pear, Don't Leave Me

"Okay," Bai Yao replied gently, putting his arm around Jiang Xinli's waist and helping her land steadily on the ground.

Jiang Xinli turned around, but the canyon steaming with corrosive mist had already disappeared from their sight.

Ahead lay a vast, dark thicket of thorns that stretched to the horizon.

It's a maze of intertwined roots and branches.

Through the thicket of thorns, she saw glimpses of green.

She guessed that the green hue must be the top of the giant tree.

Bai Yao lowered his eyes and scanned Jiang Xinli from head to toe. "Xiaoli, is anything bothering you?"

Jiang Xinli: "I'm fine, just a little tinnitus. How about you?"

"Try opening your mouth?" Bai Yao leaned down, stretched out his palm, and gently placed it on either side of her ear.

"Okay." Jiang Xinli did as instructed, and the tinnitus disappeared. "All done, thank you."

Bai Yao withdrew his hand.

Jiang Xinli then realized that he had not only released pheromones to create a barrier for her.

He also used his special ability to create a small wind deceleration barrier that hovered around the two of them.

After all, flying 10 kilometers in 5 seconds is equivalent to the speed of an intercontinental ballistic missile.

For an ordinary human being, such a powerful impact would either kill or cripple them.

Not to mention, the canyon is filled with corrosive, high-temperature steam.

"Are you alright?" Jiang Xinli asked Bai Yao, her brow furrowing slightly.

His mental rage level soared to 42%, and his pale face was completely bloodless.

"I'm fine," Bai Yaoqing smiled gently.

"Then I'll help you lower your mental rage level first." As she spoke, dodder vines overflowed from Jiang Xinli's fingertips.

"Little Pear, can we lower it like this?" Bai Yao opened his palm to her, his clear eyes filled with a hint of expectation. "With contact, isn't it faster than without contact?"

“This—” Jiang Xinli pursed her lips and placed her palm on it.

Bai Yao's mental riot value quickly decreased.

"Alright." Jiang Xinli was about to pull her hand away, but Bai Yao's slender fingers held it tightly.

"?" She looked up at him in confusion.

"Little Pear—" Bai Yao had just opened his mouth when he suddenly frowned, pulled his hand back, and covered his chest.

Jiang Xinli was taken aback. "Was it because you used too much of your superpowers just now and got a backlash from the restriction?"

Bai Yao's lips tightened, his jaw twitched slightly, but he simply shook his head in silence.

"Don't move yet, sit down and rest for a bit. There's an ancient forest over there, I'll go ask around." Jiang Xinli had just turned around when she heard a muffled groan behind her.

She turned around abruptly, only to see Bai Yao suddenly sway and fall heavily to his knees.

The man hung his head, his pale fingers tightly covering his lips, blood constantly gushing from between his cold, white fingers and dripping down his sharply defined chin.

His long, snow-white hair was blown by the wind and clung messily to the side of his neck.

The dripping blood stained his snow-white clothes with a glaring red.

Jiang Xinli was startled and rushed towards him immediately, "Lord Bai Yao, are you alright?!"

She froze the moment her palm touched his back.

The muscles on the man's back were taut, with sharp, knife-cut lines, and they were very hot.

She could even feel his body trembling even more violently.

"Human, he has internal injuries and is bleeding." A voice from the distant dense forest echoed.

Jiang Xinli was secretly startled.

She reached out to support Bai Yao, "Wait a moment, I remember we still have some Panax notoginseng, which can stop bleeding." [Human, here's a Blood Ganoderma, applying it to internal organs will be even more effective!] Gu Mu continued.

Jiang Xinli turned her head and immediately saw a palm-sized blood-red Ganoderma lucidum emitting a faint glow on the trunk of an unknown, decaying ancient tree not far away.
"Just bear with it for a moment, I'll go get it."

"Little Pear, don't leave me." Bai Yao said weakly, his pale fingers barely lifting as a wind blade precisely sliced ​​off the Ganoderma lucidum and swept it over with the wind.

The Ganoderma lucidum was quickly crushed into powder by the wind blades in his palm.

Seeing his fingers tremble slightly as he reached for his inner garment, Jiang Xinli took a deep breath. "I'll help you."

I helped him undress, then took the bamboo tube from behind him, added some water, and stirred the Ganoderma powder evenly.

Then, he gently applied the powdered medicine to his well-defined abdominal muscles.

Bai Yao lowered his eyes, looking at her, his breathing somewhat heavy.

He didn't speak, but Jiang Xinli could still feel his spasmodic trembling coming from her palm.

The red medicine slowly flowed down his taut V-line.

Jiang Xinli pursed her lips and focused on applying the medicine to him. "It will hurt a little, please bear with it for now."

Bai Yao suddenly grabbed her blood-stained wrist, a smile playing on his blood-stained lips: "Thank you, Xiao Li."

"You're welcome." After applying the medicine, Jiang Xinli looked away.

“That ancient tree seems to know something. I’ll go ask it.” She said, and was about to get up when Bai Yao grabbed her hand. “Little Pear, let’s communicate with it here.”

Jiang Xinli was slightly taken aback, and then sat down next to him.

I don't know if it's because the male orc's body recovered too quickly, or if the Blood Spirit Mushroom had an effect.

Before long, a trace of color finally returned to Bai Yao's pale face.

Jiang Xinli relayed the information she had received to him: "That one ahead is a thorn maze."

"If you go the wrong way, you will get lost, encounter plant mutated beasts, or even end up in the lair of the Five Poison Beasts."

Bai Yao: "Did we go the right way?"

Jiang Xinli pointed to the greenery, "It will take you directly to the heart of the forest, to the top of the giant tree."

“A maze.” Bai Yao frowned. “I can release a wind to try and find the right way out. As for the top of the giant tree, I will help you defeat it. However, Xiao Li—” A hint of apology flashed in his eyes, “I can only help you tomorrow.”

“It’s alright.” Jiang Xinli smiled, “You forgot, you have wind-type abilities, and I have wood-type abilities. I can use dodder vines to find the right path in the thorn maze.”

"As for that giant tree, they say that its energy is being rapidly depleted, and it's about to die. It shouldn't be that difficult to deal with."

"Besides, if what you say is true, and my falling into this place was not an accident, then I should be the one to overcome this challenge."

Bai Yao frowned. "Is he dying? How come this is different from what I heard outside the canyon?"

Jiang Xinli looked at the thick fog behind her. "I think it might be this fog that's interfering with the transmission of information."

Half an hour later, Bai Yao had basically recovered.

With a wave of her hand, four red vines quickly sprouted from her fingertips.

The vines slithered across the ground and soon found a safe path.

"This way." Just as the two entered the maze, thorns suddenly sprang up all around them, and countless sharp spikes attacked them directly.

"Xiao Li, be careful!" Bai Yao was about to pull her into his arms when Jiang Xinli grabbed his wrist. "Bai Yao, you are not allowed to use your powers again."

His superpowers have long been nearing their limit.

Forcibly breaking through the restrictions again—

I'm afraid we really won't be able to hold on this time.
As she spoke, four red vines appeared from Jiang Xinli's fingertips like sharp blades, severing all the thorny brambles.

With her slender figure, she stood resolutely in front of Bai Yao, thin yet firm and powerful.

"Xiao Li——"

"Bai Yao, this is my own challenge, and I'll overcome it."
