After consuming the Demon Spirit Pill, Chi Lian quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yuze quickly began massaging Chi Lian's severed limbs.

Before long, the immense demonic power within the Demon Spirit Pill, guided by the massage, surged towards Chi Lian's tailbone and the severed ends of her claws.

After Chen Yuze applied the special massage techniques recorded in the "Records of Benevolent Hearts in the Mountains and Seas" to these three areas, a miracle occurred.

Despite the fact that the prototype of the Red Serpent is an arthropod, countless tiny fleshy buds have grown at the cut.

With the stimulation of demonic power, these buds quickly fused together and grew the rudiments of tail spikes and pincers.

Immediately afterwards, a little bit of gelatinous fluid, like grass jelly, oozed from the broken end of the red snake.

As these fluids gradually enveloped the newly formed pincers and tailbone of the red snake, they began to change their properties. In just a few breaths, the gelatinous fluid solidified into a hard black crystal carapace.

At this point, Chi Lian's body was considered fully repaired.

"I didn't expect that limb regeneration would be so easy."

After touching the newly grown pincers and tail barbs of the Red Serpent, Chen Yuze immediately focused his gaze on the Red Serpent's body.

Having experienced entering the Ruyi Spirit Sea before, Chen Yuze was much more skilled at entering the Chilian Spirit Sea this time.

Entering the sea of ​​consciousness, finding the Crimson Serpent, and breaking the restriction were all accomplished in one go!

However, Chi Lian did not learn the original divine power contained in the Seven-Colored Gourd Mountain like Ru Yi did. Instead, she directly absorbed all their essence into her body.

If Chen Yuze could return to reality at this moment, he would surely discover that within Ruyi's reborn claws, there were now flowing lights of red, orange, and yellow.

"In that case, this matter is now closed."

On Chi Lian's lotus platform in her sea of ​​consciousness, Chen Yuze was gently stroking her head: "While the demonic power within the demon spirit pills hasn't dissipated yet, Chi Lian, you should quickly refine them. When you wake up next time, you can shuffle, draw, and play cards yourself, just like Ruyi and the others."

"master!"

She gave Chen Yuze a coquettish glare, but in the end, Chi Lian still smiled and pressed her face against Chen Yuze's chest: "Rather than drawing cards, Chi Lian would like to use her own hands to touch Master's face and skin, is that alright?"

068. Actually, I'm the third one!

After exiting Chi Lian's spiritual sea, Chen Yuze turned his attention to Yuan Bao.

At this moment, Yuanbao was lying on the rocking chair, with his legs crossed, reading a storybook in his hand.

Her delicate toes, encased in white silk, hooked perfectly onto her half-off shoes, swaying back and forth slightly.

What was clearly Yuanbao's unintentional action sparked endless fantasies and desires in Chen Yuze.

To put it more bluntly, it makes you want to rush up to her and grab her blonde twin ponytails, using them as a steering wheel.

Of course, Chen Yuze was just thinking about it.

Shaking his head to shake off all these worldly desires, Chen Yuze waved to Yuanbao.

"Yuanbao, it's your turn for cupping today."

"Ok?"

Yuanbao lazily put down the storybook in his hand, put his shoes back on, and then stretched out a big yawn.

Her perfect body curves were thus displayed to Chen Yuze in full.

Strangely enough, Yuanbao seemed like the epitome of a spoiled, arrogant loser, but after spending time with her, her true personality turned out to be quite different from what Chen Yuze had imagined.

Except at certain times, I might be a bit impatient.

Gold ingots on ordinary days

She's nothing more than a pampered young lady.

Judging from her eating and drinking habits, Yuanbao's family background must have been quite wealthy, and her upbringing was among the best for a demon beast.

Although she sometimes does things that seem a bit effeminate or pretentious for no apparent reason, that's precisely what makes her so endearing.

"Speaking of which, Yuanbao, isn't it time you told me what your true identity is?"

After bringing Yuanbao into the house, Chen Yuze skillfully lifted her shirt and untied the back drawstring of her bodice. Then, while preparing for cupping, he chatted with Yuanbao.

"I... I don't have any special status, Brother Yuze~"

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuze would ask such a question right away, and Yuanbao's forehead immediately broke out in a fine sweat.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. After all, every family has its own problems. Now that I've taken you in, I'll take good care of you."

Setting the cupping jar aside, Chen Yuze continued, half-jokingly:

"However, judging from your usual words and actions, you don't seem like an ordinary girl from a demon family... To be honest, I'm starting to suspect that you might be a young lady who ran away from home in a fit of anger because you had a fight with your family."

"Gueh——!?"

After hearing Chen Yuze's words, Yuanbao couldn't help but burp.

Coupled with her flustered expression and the evasive look in her eyes caused by guilt, Chen Yuze immediately sensed that something was wrong:

"Um... could it be that I actually guessed right?"

"I'm so sorry!"

Seeing that he could no longer hide his identity, Yuanbao, in a moment of panic, didn't even have time to tidy his clothes before turning around and hugging Chen Yuze's arm, saying pitifully:

"Brother Yuze, you have to believe me. I had no choice but to keep it a secret from you and everyone else..."

In response, Chen Yuze quickly covered his eyes, turned his head away, and adopted a serious expression, as if he didn't want to look at anything inappropriate.

"Didn't I say it was okay even if you didn't say anything? Every family has its own problems, I won't blame you. And now, get back on the bed. We're a man and a woman alone together, what kind of behavior is this?"

"Eh?"

Yuanbao was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly remembered that he had already lifted his clothes because he was going to have cupping done.

Even the undergarment—

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

At that moment, the shameful screams echoed throughout the entire Evergreen Mountain.

Fortunately, Chen Yuze didn't feel embarrassed.

To ease Yuanbao's embarrassment, they even praised her a couple of times.

"Hey, Yuanbao, you actually have a pretty good figure. And your skin is very smooth too."

Thanks to this, Yuanbao's face became even hotter.

They even grabbed the pillow and hid their entire head under it.

"..."

Realizing that his words might have backfired, Chen Yuze quickly shut his mouth and obediently began to massage Yuanbao before cupping.

As a result, the two of them did not exchange a single word during the entire cupping process.

Only after the cupping procedure was completed and she had put her clothes back on, and had recovered a little, did Yuanbao grab Chen Yuze's arm and softly explain her identity:

“Brother Yuze, actually… I come from Lion Camel Ridge.”

"Lion Camel Ridge?" Although he knew that the Lion Camel Ridge in this world was definitely not the same as the Lion Camel Ridge he knew, Chen Yuze still couldn't help but ask:

"Are there three renowned leaders on Lion Camel Ridge? Are they the Lion, the Elephant, and the Eagle?"

Although he no longer remembered the original names of these three great villains, Chen Yuze still had some impression of their basic appearances.

“Uh…” Yuanbao nodded, indicating that Chen Yuze was right.

"Do you eat people in Lion Camel Ridge? I've heard that the monsters on Lion Camel Ridge love to eat human flesh. Moreover, the environment of the entire Lion Camel Ridge is extremely harsh. It can be described as a mountain of skeletons and a forest of bones. Human hair is matted into felt, and human flesh is rotten into mud. Human tendons are wrapped around trees, dry and shiny like silver."

"???"

Yuanbao was completely taken aback by Chen Yuze's words.

Good heavens, where did this rumor come from? How can you smear the reputation of Lion Camel Ridge out of thin air?

“Brother Yuze, the Ten Thousand Mountains are rarely visited by humans. If Lion Camel Ridge really relied on cannibalism for health, the monsters up there would have starved to death long ago.”

"That's true..."

Scratching his head, Chen Yuze couldn't help but think: Although there are indeed some repetitions in this setting, it is clear that the Lion Camel Ridge in the book of his previous life and the Lion Camel Ridge in this life are not closely related.

Otherwise, Lion Camel Ridge wouldn't have been able to produce such an outstanding young lady as Yuanbao.

"By the way, I remember Yuanbao, you're the Golden-Winged Roc, right? I suppose the one who made you want to run away from home must be that elder who's the third oldest among the three commanders, right?"

"Um, Brother Yuze... actually, I'm the third one."

"?"

The smile on Chen Yuze's face gradually froze, and for a moment he even wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

No, what are you doing here at my Evergreen Mountain, the third leader of Lion Camel Ridge?!

Seeing that Chen Yuze remained silent, Yuanbao continued:

"And the main reason I ran away from home"

Actually, it's my eldest and second eldest brothers. They kept trying to force me to go on blind dates, so I ran away from home in a fit of anger. As a result, when I passed by the foot of Changqing Mountain, I happened to run into Jin Gang and we even got into a fight... And then, that's how it happened that you, Brother Yuze, took me in."

069. Qingqiu's Visit (Midnight)

After hearing Yuanbao's explanation, Chen Yuze was completely speechless.

He never dreamed that the little bird he casually picked up would become the third leader of Lion Camel Ridge.

No wonder he felt that the name "Golden-Winged Roc" sounded so familiar.

"So, Yuanbao, you suddenly came out to me because you're going back to Lion Camel Ridge?" As Chen Yuze tidied up the bed where Yuanbao had just lain and felt the lingering warmth Yuanbao had left on the sheets, he suddenly felt sad all of a sudden.

As a result, Yuanbao got really angry at Chen Yuze:

"Brother Yuze, is it possible that I told you because you asked me?"

"Tsk, that's really the case."

Slapping his forehead, Chen Yuze smiled sheepishly: "Sorry, sorry, I don't know why, but I seem to get distracted very easily lately."

After saying that, Chen Yuze glanced at Yuanbao's white silk-clad legs.

Hmm, I think I've found the reason why my mind wandered.

However, following Chen Yuze, Yuanbao also became sad on his own:
