Chapter 554 is his first time.

The girl's delicate red lips were inches away from his, and the boy's Adam's apple bobbed, causing his voice to become slightly hoarse.
"Miss Xinli, close your eyes and try to feel it with your heart?"

Jiang Xinli felt warm both in her head and body.

But now that her forehead was pressed against Xueyin's, even the breath she exhaled carried a slight coolness, which made her feel more comfortable.

She couldn't help but raise her hand and hook it around his neck.

The boy stiffened, and the hand that encircled her slender waist tightened instinctively.

"Feel it, hmm?"

"it is good."

Jiang Xinli closed her eyes.

The scene before my eyes became clear.

She saw a champagne-gold mermaid on the shimmering blue sea, her purple hair fluttering in the wind, her slender and perfect body leaping gracefully with the waves.

He was surrounded by pale purple halos.

She counted them: nine and a half?

Therefore, this means that Xueyin's ability level is 9.5?
Just as she was about to open her eyes, she saw the sea suddenly darken, and a thick layer of black mist appeared around the mermaid.

Countless black tree roots, as thick as fingers, fell from the sky and pierced his chest.

Blood gushed out from the boy's pale chest muscles.

At the same time, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky.

A torrential downpour began.

Jiang Xinli's heart sank in shock, and she suddenly opened her eyes.

A pair of clear, gentle champagne-gold eyes met a pair of dewy, doe-like eyes.

Their noses touched, and their eyes met.

Plus, their eyelashes were so long, they almost touched.

"Feel it?"

Xueyin's other hand was still holding the back of her neck, and her forehead was still pressed against hers.

"Okay." Jiang Xinli told him what she had seen.

"Your ability seems to be level 9.5, and one type of ability should be rain summoning. However—" Jiang Xinli recalled the ubiquitous tree roots,
"Your special ability, could it be... from the Abyss of Ashes?"

As she spoke, a warm breath emanated from her, carrying a faint scent of roses.

The boy pursed his lips, feeling a dryness in his throat.

He gave a soft "hmm".
"I am somewhat similar to Prince Yunbo, but also very different. After he turns 18, he will automatically awaken his innate special abilities, just like other male sea creatures."

But in addition to that, he also has extra abilities granted to him by the Sacred Tree and the Abyss after he made a pact with it.

Similarly, he can acquire many superpowers that did not originally belong to him.

However, all these gifts vanished with his break with Jinyuan and the destruction of the Sacred Tree.

“I don’t have a contract with Jin Yuan, and I don’t have an octopus on my wrist. So, I’ve temporarily kept the superpowers I’ve acquired.”

It's like exploiting a bug; it's not under the control of Jin Yuan.

But it can also be considered as something he obtained by sacrificing his life to nourish Jin Yuan with his own blood.

Therefore, using it again will also require the consumption of blood.

It's more like offering one's own blood as a sacrifice to obtain temporary energy from an evil god.

Jiang Xinli was secretly startled. "Xueyin, that..."

As if guessing what she was going to say, Xueyin said:
"We mermaids have the ability to heal ourselves, so don't worry, donating blood again will have no effect."

He tightened his knuckles. "Moreover, I assure you, I will absolutely not affect His Highness Yunbo's health."

Speaking of Yunbo, Jiang Xinli realized that their posture was a bit too ambiguous.

Just as she was about to turn her head away, the boy's thin lips covered hers.

But he only gave a light kiss and then left.

She was feeling unwell, and with the situation of Sheng Tianze and the others outside unknown, the young man could only suppress the stirrings and desires in his heart.

Seeing that her forehead temperature had dropped a bit, he released her and reverted to his human form. He gently raised his hand to tidy up the stray strands of hair on her forehead and asked softly, "Are you feeling better now?"

Jiang Xinli hummed in agreement.

She was still feeling hot and uncomfortable, but she didn't want him to worry too much.

Xueyin felt relieved. "We probably won't be able to get out anytime soon, so let's rest here for a while."

After saying that, he turned his head and glanced behind him. "Is this the house you mentioned before, your second home?"

"Mm." Jiang Xinli nodded.

As usual, she should personally show him around.

However, given the current special circumstances and the fact that she felt weak and powerless, she had no choice but to give up.

Xueyin picked her up and placed her on a lounge chair by the door. "Rest here for a bit. I'll go in and take a look, and I'll be right back."

“Okay.” Jiang Xinli thought he wanted to go inside for a tour. “Take your time looking around. Even if Aze and the others come in, it will still take them a while.”

She was very worried about Sheng Tianze and the others, but now, she had no choice but to wait for them to come in and take her out.

"Hmm." The boy turned and went inside.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xinli tried the Little Golden Snake, the Ice Soul Heart, and the Snow Ring in turn.

Try to sense a few beastmen.

But without exception, they all failed.

The photon signal of the optical brain is also in a red off state.

Those thrown into a personal domain cannot leave unless the domain owner agrees.

Of course, there is another situation: when the domain owner dies.

Therefore, the special spacetime barrier formed in a personal domain will also cease to exist.

Jiang Xinli's heart sank, and her brows furrowed even more.

Footsteps sounded, and Xueyin came out carrying a glass of orange juice in one hand and a bucket of hot water in the other.

"Miss Xinli, would you like some Vitamin C?" He fed the orange juice to Jiang Xinli's lips.

"I can do it myself." Jiang Xinli reached out and took a sip.

"Your body temperature needs to be lowered a bit more." The young man said, rolling up his sleeves to reveal his pale, muscular arms. He rubbed a towel, wrung it out, and began to wipe her cheeks and neck.

Jiang Xinli looked at him, slightly taken aback.

Sunlight streamed down, falling on his face and giving the handsome young man a faint golden glow.

In a daze, Jiang Xinli seemed to see Yun Bo.

Intense and complex emotions surged within me once again.

Noticing her gaze, the boy looked up.

He deliberately ignored her gaze, which was looking through him into the void, and a charming smile spread across his youthful, handsome face.
"Miss Xinli, give me your hand."

Jiang Xinli absentmindedly offered him her arm, watching him skillfully roll up her sleeve and gently wipe her face with a towel. She couldn't help but ask:

"Have you ever had a high fever before?"

The boy shook his head. "No."

In fact, before his forehead touched hers, he didn't even know what a high fever was.

Jiang Xinli became increasingly curious, "So, have you ever taken care of someone before?"

When in the Deep Sea Palace, Xueyin could only appear for four hours each day.

Most of them were in the Holy Tomb, their blood being drained by the Abyss.

His common sense about life was almost nonexistent.

"No." The boy gently lowered her sleeve, offering her his pale palm. "The other one?"

She obediently reached out, "Then you,"

"It's my first time." The boy's lips curved slightly upward, his clear, bright eyes looking at her.

"I have many of them with Miss Xiaoli."

first."
