Chapter 389 Respect
As the system spoke, it seemed to know what its host was most worried about, and continued, "Now that you have been reborn from the ashes, your aura and appearance have changed. As long as you don't actively reveal your aura, no one will know that you exist."
“But if you reveal your aura, it could very well draw out that so-called main body again. His strength is too great. If he tries to kill you again, it will also bring danger to Xiao Jihan and the others.”
"So for now, host, continue to disguise yourself and don't go looking for them. Focus on recovering your health, finding the Soul Gathering Lamp, and becoming stronger first."
“After Mei Qingchen’s abilities become stronger, she should be able to divine that you are still alive, so you don’t need to worry about anything.”
"They know you are the chosen one, and if they believe that, they should believe you are still alive."
"I never imagined that the person who helped you rise from the ashes and brought you back to life would be Yue Wuhen."
The system was quite emotional when it said these things.
It felt that Yue Wuhen had sacrificed too much.
However, as long as its host works hard to save Yue Wuhen, it is believed that Yue Wuhen can be saved.
Hearing these words from the system, Su Muyao's face turned even paler.
Su Muyao looked at Ye Ying and said, "Thank you for telling me all this."
Nightshade could sense that she wasn't in a good mood and seemed somewhat depressed.
Seeing her like this, Ye Ying felt sorry for her and said softly, "I will tell you everything I know that you want to know."
The system whispered in Su Muyao's ear, "Host, you can tell Ye Ying that you want to see his face under the mask."
Su Muyao's thoughts were interrupted by the system's words. She looked at Ye Ying and communicated with the system telepathically, saying, "We can't do that. He must have his reasons for wearing the mask. I should respect him."
"Besides, he helped me and saved me. I can't be so willful. Sometimes indulging in willfulness will only hurt the other person."
Having gone through so much, Su Muyao has become increasingly cautious in her actions.
She didn't want to hurt anyone anymore.
She should cherish those who are kind and caring towards her.
Even though Su Muyao wasn't in a good mood, she didn't want to bring it up with Ye Ying. She smiled at Ye Ying and said, "Knowing this is enough."
"You must be tired from taking care of me these past few days. You should rest first. I can take care of myself."
She needs to recover quickly and find a way to go to the sea tribe.
As Su Muyao spoke, she tried to get down, but her body was too weak. As soon as she put down, her legs went weak, and she almost fell to one side.
Night Shadow reacted quickly and helped Su Muyao up.
As a result, Su Muyao fell into Ye Ying's arms.
When Nightshade held her, his hands froze, and he didn't even know where to put them.
"sorry, I……"
He wanted to apologize; he didn't mean it.
But he still carefully picked her up and placed her on the bed. "You are still very weak. I had a witch doctor examine you. You will need to continue taking medicine these days."
"You should rest first. I'll go make you some food. You'll feel better if you eat something later."
Su Muyao grabbed Ye Ying's sleeve and said, "I want to wash up and take a shower first."
It's unclear how long she's been unconscious. She's a clean person, and all she wants to do right now is wash up.
Nightshade's eyes were gentle and soft, with a watery sheen, as she said softly, "Okay, I'll go prepare the water."
Nightshade is a sea-folk beastman who can freely control water.
But he was still afraid of revealing his identity, so he personally prepared the water and then used his supernatural abilities to control the water temperature.
"Miss Su, it's done."
Nightshade prepared a bathtub and warm water in the room, and arranged the shelves and toiletries before leaving.
Su Muyao first washed her face and brushed her teeth, then went into the bathtub to take a bath.
She stared blankly at the flower petals in the bathtub.
Even the system exclaimed in admiration, "Host, Nightshade is so thoughtful towards you. She even prepared so many flower petals, and there are bath supplies next to her. In particular, there's a box containing beauty-enhancing pearl powder."
“At times like these, pearl powder is an extremely precious commodity, and even the most powerful noble families may not be able to afford it.”
Su Muyao's expression shifted slightly upon hearing the system's words. She naturally knew the preciousness of pearls.
Not to mention the beauty cream ground into powder, which is very expensive in a place like the Treasure Pavilion.
Thinking of how many spirit stones Ye Ying had given her before, and how he had prepared many things that she could use, a ripple of emotion stirred in her heart. She said, "He is indeed very good."
Thinking back on all the moments she shared with Ye Ying since arriving on the Azure Beast Continent, she could feel a warmth emanating from him.
If she hadn't met Nightshade at the beginning, waking up in an unfamiliar place with no knowledge of the Azure Beast Continent, she might have had to go through a lot of trouble to learn something.
"But I have a strange feeling, like there's something between us."
The system asked, "Could it be that the host suspects Nightshade?"
After the system learned that the snake-beastman who impersonated Wen Nanxi had killed the host, the host would no longer easily trust others.
Su Muyao shook her head and said, "It's not that I suspect him, it's just that I feel he's hiding a secret."
"However, if he were to harm me, he wouldn't have saved me so many times, so I believe he wouldn't hurt me."
"But I suspect his motives. Why did he happen to appear beside me, save me, and help me?"
In the past, Su Muyao would not have suspected the people around her for no reason.
But after what happened with Wen Nanxi's main body, Su Muyao no longer dared to trust anyone completely.
Moreover, Yue Wuhen saved her life with his own, so she absolutely cannot be allowed to get hurt.
The system said, "The host can ask some questions tentatively; there's really nothing wrong with that."
It knew that its host was still kind and was unwilling to ask questions too bluntly, lest it hurt Nightshade.
They were even less willing to directly ask Nightshade to remove his mask.
……
After Su Muyao finished bathing and dressed, she came out and smelled the aroma of food.
The system said, "Host, I smell seafood. Nightshade should start cooking."
Su Muyao walked into the kitchen next door and saw Ye Ying cooking over a fire.
He was tall and slender, like a clear breeze and a bright moon, like a crane on snow in the clouds, or like the ethereal clouds in a painting. Even while doing these things, he exuded an elegant and noble air, as dignified as the moon and as majestic as a mountain.
Every move she made was unhurried and graceful.
As if hearing a sound, Nightshade turned his head to look over.
He was still wearing a mask, and only his eyes were visible to Su Muyao.
In that instant, the warm light seemed to melt into his eyes, as if some intense emotion was about to overflow.
But in just a moment, his eyes became peaceful and serene.
He said gently, "The food will be ready soon."
Su Muyao snapped out of her daze and said, "Let me help."
She and Ye Ying actually had no relationship, but whenever he appeared by her side, he would take care of her, treat her well, give her spirit stones, and even protect her and save her life without hesitation.
If he had no ulterior motives, she wouldn't know how to repay his kindness.
She couldn't accept Nightshade's kindness with a clear conscience.
Nightshade said softly, "It'll be ready soon. There's smoke in the kitchen, so go inside and rest for a while. I'll call you later."
Watching Ye Ying's busy figure and seeing that he didn't seem to want her help, Su Muyao couldn't help but ask, "Ye Ying, may I ask you a question?"
Nightshade paused, his fingers trembling slightly as if uneasy, but he still answered, "Yes, you can ask any questions."
Su Muyao asked, "Ye Ying, why did you save me and treat me so well?"
"But I don't know how to repay you."
