Lady, let me explain.

Chapter 32 Jade Foot
Lin Yi cast aside all distracting thoughts and began to stabilize his state of mind.

After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Min lying on the ground.

Her lips turned purple, her neat teeth chattered unconsciously, and she occasionally uttered a painful groan...

Lin Yi asked Zhao Min to sit opposite him, and when their palms touched each other, he felt that Zhao Min's palms were extremely cold, as if they were touching a piece of ice.

He transferred his true energy to dissolve the cold poison in Zhao Min's body.

After a moment, Lin Yi frowned slightly. This Mysterious Divine Palm was indeed extraordinary. The cold poison was much more vicious than Wei Yixiao's Ice Palm. It was difficult for the Nine Yang True Qi to dissolve it.

Then he changed his method and absorbed the cold and poisonous energy from Zhao Min into his own body. He then stimulated his Dantian, and the Nine Yang True Qi circulated endlessly, dissolving the cold energy bit by bit. It was indeed much faster.

"If I strip her clothes off and place my hands on the wound to treat it, the efficiency should increase two or three times..."

But Lin Yi just thought in his heart that this method of taking advantage of someone's misfortune was too despicable.

And when Zhao Min wakes up, she will definitely turn against you.

"Take your stinky claws away..." Suddenly he heard a weak voice.

Lin Yi opened his eyes and met Zhao Min's weak and cold gaze.

He smiled faintly: "Without me supplying you with true energy, the princess would probably have died."

"Isn't it your fault?" Zhao Min said angrily.

"Isn't this your men's fault?"

Her pale face regained some color, and she said coldly, "I only blame them for not being good enough at martial arts. They couldn't kill you with one blow!"

With Zhao Min's intelligence, she certainly knew what Lu Zhangke was thinking.

"Then will you still seek treatment?" Lin Yi said with a smile, "Or will you continue to resist? Princess, don't worry, I have neutralized some of the cold poison and saved your life."

Zhao Min's face was full of frost. She snorted coldly and stopped talking.

Half a minute later, Lin Yi had eliminated 70% of the cold poison in her body.

He thought about it and stopped healing, but did not completely cure Zhao Min.

Zhao Min felt the warm energy subside, and she pushed Lin Yi's hands away. She struggled to lean sideways against the rock.

"Go now. Since you helped me heal my wounds... I will forgive you for kidnapping me."

Lin Yi laughed for a moment, and Zhao Min glared at him, "What are you laughing at?"

"This is out in the wilderness. If I leave, what if a tiger or a black bear comes, or a flower thief passes by? Wouldn't the princess be in danger?"

Zhao Min said, "I have my own way of contacting my men, so you don't need to worry about it!"

"Do you really want me to explain myself?" Lin Yi said calmly, "I'm still waiting to exchange you for the Five Great Sects, to become famous in the martial arts world, and to become a great hero in the Central Plains martial arts world..."

"As the saying goes, a man who knows the times is a hero. If you obey me, you will still be a princess. Otherwise, I can make you a prisoner."

Zhao Min was so angry that she slapped him, but was caught by Lin Yi.

"You!" Zhao Min's eyes widened. "You, the dignified leader of the Huashan Sect, bully a weak woman like me! You are vile, despicable, and shameless..."

"You are not a weak woman. Aren't the six major sects and the Ming Cult all manipulated by you?"

Lin Yi smiled, pinched her soft, boneless hand, and played with it carefully.

"The six major sects' siege of Bright Summit was also fueled by your instigation. First, use the six major sects to eradicate the Ming Cult, and then wipe out the severely weakened six major sects in one fell swoop."

Zhao Min sneered, "As a Mongolian princess, what's wrong with me eradicating the Central Plains martial arts world? If you want to blame someone, blame them for being too stupid. We Mongolians act uprightly, unlike you, who kidnap women and children. How shameless! Despicable!"

Lin Yi suddenly said, "Arranging a traitor to inject Ten Fragrance Softening Powder into the food and drink of the masters from the five major sects... The princess is truly aboveboard."

Zhao Min was shocked. "How did he know all this? He even knew about the Ten Fragrance Softening Powder... There's a traitor in the palace! No wonder the Huashan Sect took a detour to Tibet ahead of time. It turns out someone tipped him off!"

Zhao Min didn't feel embarrassed when these conspiracies were exposed, but she couldn't refute them for the time being.

Suddenly she felt the warmth on her hand: "Why are you still touching me, you pervert!"

Zhao Min stood up and wanted to hit him, but the pain in her ankle was unbearable and she couldn't walk, so she fell directly into Lin Yi's arms.

Carrying the ball into someone?

Lin Yi only felt a fragrance coming towards him: "The princess is calling you a rapist while throwing herself into my arms. Why is that?"

Zhao Min quickly stood up. Her glare turned to anger, then to coldness, before she quickly calmed down...

She is not an ordinary woman. She can regain her sanity even in danger. Now Zhao Min has accepted the reality and is thinking about how to escape.

Lin Yi coughed and said, "When you got off the horse just now, I think you twisted your ankle. Can I help you with it?"

"You lecher, forget it!" Zhao Min cursed in shame and anger. "Even if I were dead, I wouldn't let you heal me!"

After spending so much time together, Zhao Min still doesn’t know what Lin Yi is thinking?
Lin Yi stroked his chin and said, "You keep calling me a pervert. When have I ever perverted you? Or... are you looking forward to being perverted by me?"

"Bah!" Zhao Min punched out with her pink fist. She had also learned martial arts, but her skills were just mediocre in front of Lin Yi. He easily dodged it by twisting his shoulder.

"You won't die, but you're seriously injured. Your leg might be broken... Princess, you don't want people to call you the Cripple Princess, do you?"

Zhao Min gritted her teeth, her face flushed with anger as she recalled the scene where Lin Yi pulled her off the horse.

Suddenly, she smiled brightly, a look of joy on her face, as beautiful as a freshly blossomed flower. "Okay... but I have a request."

Lin Yi was also amazed for a moment, but he knew in his heart that this witch must be cheating!

"I'm treating your injuries, and you're still asking for something? That's new...Okay, go ahead."

"You need to cover your eyes," Zhao Min's face flushed, and a shy look suddenly appeared on her face. "You can only heal the wound, not see."

Lin Yi is skilled and courageous: "Okay, but what should I use to blindfold myself?"

Zhao Min thought for a moment and pulled out an apricot-colored handkerchief from her bosom.

Lin Yi took it. The handkerchief was full of the scent of a young girl, with bursts of fragrance that were refreshing.

"The princess's handkerchief smells so good."

Zhao Min's eyelids twitched with anger, feeling embarrassed and annoyed: "You, you..."

Lin Yi smiled and covered his eyes with a handkerchief.

Zhao Min glanced at him and went to take off her boots.

"Hiss...it hurts! I can't take off my shoes, help me."

Lin Yi held her calf, knowing that her ankle was swollen, and he was very gentle.

After taking off her boots, Lin Yi directly pulled off her stockings. Zhao Min spat inwardly but said nothing.

Lin Yi was covering his eyes with a handkerchief, so of course he couldn't see anything, and there was no smell from Zhao Min's feet.

He grasped her calf with one hand, and felt the skin was warm and soft. He pressed down gently on her ankle.

"Hiss! Be gentle..."

Lin Yi looked strange when he heard this.

He recalled the knowledge in Hu Qingniu's Medical Classics: "Your foot is fine, just sprained."

Lin Yi massaged her gently, activating the Nine Yang Qi to heal her.

Zhao Min bit her lip. She felt a familiar warmth flowing through her feet, tingling and itchy...

Suddenly, Lin Yi grabbed her bare foot with one hand. Zhao Min quickly flinched, taking a deep breath in pain. "What...are you doing?"

"It's for healing, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis." Lin Yi said as a matter of course, "Otherwise, you won't be able to get out of bed later. Princess, do you want me to carry you?"

"You have bad intentions..." Zhao Min's face flushed, but she also had ulterior motives and could only endure it for the time being.

Lin Yi knew that she was up to something, so of course he would take advantage of her. He pinched Zhao Min's jade feet with one hand and started playing with them wantonly.

Her feet are slender and small, her arches are soft, and the skin on the back of her feet is warm, tender and smooth...

Suddenly, Lin Yi felt a strong wind coming from his face. He gathered all his internal energy and quickly stretched out his hand.

He pulled off the handkerchief covering her eyes, and saw Zhao Min's face frozen with anger. She took out a dagger or scimitar from somewhere and stabbed him, but it was caught between his fingers.

Zhao Min exerted force with her hands, but the dagger did not move at all.

Seeing Lin Yi's cold smile, she couldn't help but feel a little scared, secretly regretting it in her heart: "Now that I failed to assassinate him, I don't know how he will retaliate against me. This time I really can't get any help from anyone..."

Lin Yi twisted his fingers, and Zhao Min felt a huge force coming from the dagger, and her hand was immediately shaken away.

Lin Yi took a look at it. The blade shone coldly like water, and a chilling aura filled the air. It was obviously a top-quality sword.

"You...what are you going to do."

No matter how smart Zhao Min was, she was just a young girl. This was her first time experiencing such a crisis, so she was a little panicked.

Lin Yi didn't say anything. He took the scabbard from Zhao Min's other hand. There was still some warmth on the scabbard, so it must have been something she carried with her.

Lin Yi closed the scimitar, put it in his arms, smiled faintly and said, "Thank you, Princess, for the gift of the knife."

Zhao Min was stunned. Seeing that he didn't care, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little shy: "Who said I gave it to you? Give it back to me quickly, I can't give you this knife..."

Lin Yi's eyes lit up and he seemed to be thinking about something.

Suddenly he looked down and saw Zhao Min's small feet, which were as white and tender as jade, with round toes, but her ankles were slightly swollen.

Zhao Min was very embarrassed and quickly shrank back, but was caught by Lin Yi again.

"Princess, the treatment isn't over yet..."
