Xi Run had not yet woken up, while Ah Li sat blankly on the boulder, looking at Zuo Chi in front of her with a suspicious expression.

From the moment we met until now, Ahri has been observing this mysterious and powerful man.

Ah Li didn't sense any hostility from Zuo Chi, nor did she see the same greed in his eyes as the two pharmacists had just been.

That's all!

Ahri couldn't discern any other useful information.

Looking at Zuo Chi, who was helping Xi Run into the main wife position, Ah Li asked softly, "Why did you save me?"

Zuo Chi paused, then looked at Ah Li beside him.

When Zuo Chi's gaze fell on Ah Li's cheek, a deep look of amazement appeared in his eyes.

It must be said that Ahri truly deserves to be one of the most beautiful heroes in all of Runeterra; she is born with unparalleled charm.

Even now, with her brows slightly furrowed and her expression somewhat bewildered, her beauty remains flawless.

Zuo Chi suddenly moved a few steps closer to Ah Li, raised his hands and made a grabbing motion in the air, his expression becoming extremely lewd.

"Why did I save you? Of course, it's to steal business from my competitors!"

Ahri, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, froze, her expression instantly hardening.

"No way! You're serious?"

Zuo Chi brought his face close to Ah Li's and nodded to her very seriously:

"Of course it's true! After all, your tail is an extremely perfect ingredient for alchemy, and each one is priceless!"

"no no no"

Having finally regained some strength, Ahri shook her head vigorously.

"My magic comes from the Vastaya bloodline, not from my tail."

"Oh, I see!"

Zuo Chi nodded meaningfully, and at the same time drew the short knife from his waist.

"Let's not rush to cut off the tail yet, let's bleed it first!"

"!!!"

Seeing the gleaming short knife in Zuo Chi's hand, Ah Li's delicate face was completely filled with terror.

She tried to calm herself down, her eyes meeting Zuo Chi's, and at the same time, she activated her charm magic at full power.

Ahri was certain that this was the most powerful charm magic she had ever used since birth, and fine beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead.

However, just as she was giving it her all, she was horrified to find that Zuo Chi's expression did not change at all, and he was even looking at her with suspicion!

Are you constipated?

Ah Li: "."

"Hahahaha!"

Faced with Ahri's tearful expression, Zuo Chi finally couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.

Then, to Ahri's horrified gaze, a blazing, bright crimson-gold energy emanated from Zuo Chi's right hand and gently covered Ahri's head.

Sensing Zuo Chi's actions and feeling the incredibly familiar power in his hand, Ah Li was completely plunged into despair.

That's right, it's this power, the power Zuo Chi used when he killed those two pharmacists.

It seems Zuo Chi is no longer willing to wait and is preparing to kill her for her blood!

Unable to use charm magic, Ahri shook her head with all her might.

"Human, please don't kill me, I... wait?"

Just as Ahri was halfway through her sentence, she froze.

Because when the power in Zuo Chi's hand entered her body, Ah Li did not feel the slightest pain. On the contrary, her long-stiff body felt a warm sensation that made her feel very comfortable.

Looking up at Zuo Chi with suspicion, Ah Li met his playful gaze.

"I said, do I look like that kind of pervert?"

"emmm~~"

Faced with Zuo Chi's question, Ah Li was at a loss for words. At the same time, she realized that everything Zuo Chi had just done was just to tease her!

Thinking of this, Ah Li couldn't help but pout.

Since she left the forest, she has encountered all sorts of humans, but she has never met one as infuriating as Zuo Chi!

If she could, Ahri really wanted to take a big bite out of Zuo Chi!

A warm, ascending power flowed from Zuo Chi's hands, slowly entering Ah Li's body from the top of her head, while Ah Li's stiff body began to gradually recover.

Ah Li sat on the big rock, tilting her head back and looking at Zuo Chi with curiosity.

A moment later, Ahri's body, which had been stiffened by the anesthesia, finally regained some mobility, and she was able to walk slowly without assistance.

It was at this moment that Zuo Chi slowly removed his large hand, which was imbued with the power of ascension, from Ah Li's head.

Before removing it, Zuo Chi pinched Ah Li's fluffy ears as a reward for herself.

Ah Li climbed down from the boulder, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Zuo Chi in front of her.

"Thank you, you wretched humans!"

Zuo Chi shrugged helplessly and chuckled, "I might be happier if you could change how you address me!"

"Humph!"

Ahri gave a light hum: "My name is Ahri, what's yours?"

"Zuo Chi!" Zuo Chi replied with a smile.

Ahri nodded, and at the same time, she stroked her nine large tails behind her, feeling somewhat relieved.

After confirming that none of the items were missing, Ahri turned her gaze to Xirun, who was lying unconscious on a nearby boulder.

Ahri had witnessed everything the two apothecaries had done to Xirun, so she was also curious about the background of this little Vastaya girl.

Ahri did not wake Xirun, but slowly approached Xirun's face.

Taking a light breath, specks of white light flew out from Xi Run's nostrils and slowly entered Ah Li's mouth.

Those are Xi Run's memories.

In order to uncover the secret of her origins, Ahri must learn all the information related to the Sun Gem in her possession.

As Ahri inhaled specks of white light, Xirun's memories slowly surfaced in her mind.

'Shirun was a Vastaya girl who had been separated from her people. Hungry and frightened, she hid under a market stall. Two apothecaries injected her with an evil potion; if she didn't receive the antidote each month, her body would itch unbearably.'

The sound of two men arguing came from inside the caravan. Xi Run had returned empty-handed today; her mission was unsuccessful again.

'Xirun told the fortunes of a veiled witch doctor and received a copper coin as payment. She used the coin to buy a loaf of bread and wolfed it down.'

One day, Xirun found a tattered parchment scroll containing information related to the Imero Stone.

'Those two men sent Xi Run to bewitch Ah Li and cut off her tail, otherwise they wouldn't get the antidote for this month.'

Xi Run's memories flashed through Ah Li's mind like a slideshow, and Ah Li's gaze toward Xi Run gradually changed.

The white light emanating from Xi Run's nostrils slowly dissipated, and Ah Li also sighed softly.

Ahri gently placed her hand on Xirun's forehead, and at the same time, strange magic spread from her hand.

She erased all of Xi Run's bad memories, as well as all of Xi Run's memories related to them.

After doing all this, Ahri looked at Zuo Chi beside her.

"That damned Zuo Chi, can you help her remove the drug restrictions from her body?"

Zuo Chi came to the two of them and nodded.

"Of course!"

Chapter 38 Bodyguard and Secretary! The Soul of Ionia!

The ascension power in Zuo Chi's hand slowly disappeared, and the poison in Xi Run's body was also completely removed by him.

Although Xi Run was still in a coma, her body was no longer injured and she was no longer restrained.

Perhaps when she wakes up, she will return to her tribe without hesitation.

Beside Xi Run, Zuo Chi and Ali stood facing each other.

Looking into Ah Li's watery eyes, Zuo Chi couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything else?"

Ahri pursed her lips, her beast ears swaying gently on her head.

After seemingly hesitating for a long time, Ahri finally asked Zuo Chi, "Where are you planning to go next?"

Where to?

Zuo Chi looked out of the forest, his gaze somewhat lost: "I haven't decided yet."

Upon hearing Zuo Chi's answer, a gleam of joy flashed in Ah Li's eyes.
