Mu Qiqi, however, was not convinced and retorted, “A single Heart-Protecting Pill is worth a fortune. It was I who saved you…”
“Saved me?”
Ye Wushuang, weakly propping himself up, gave a bitter smile and said, “Are you even a pill master?”
“Your so-called thorough examination only revealed that my physical body had poor blood circulation and severe injuries, so you gave me a Heart-Protecting Pill. How could you be so reckless?”
“It’s true that my body suffered heavy damage, but my soul is also injured. If the effects of the Heart-Protecting Pill had invaded my soul, I would have been ruined, if not dead.”
“I am a warrior at the Physical Training stage, with a very fragile soul that can’t withstand the effects of the Heart-Protecting Pill. Didn’t you consider that?”
Faced with Ye Wushuang’s questions, Mu Qiqi’s pretty face turned somewhat dazed, and she was left speechless. She had indeed failed to consider that.
“Fortunately, it was me. I usually pay attention to the basics in my cultivation, so my soul is relatively stronger. If it had been someone else, your Heart-Protecting Pill would have cost them their life.”
“If you are a pill master, I suggest you read more about pill-making. Otherwise, you will surely do more harm than good in the future and end up killing someone!”
At this moment, Mu Qiqi was completely stunned.
Was this guy scolding her?
“You…”
Mu Qiqi was so angry that her pretty face turned red. She humphed and stormed out of the room.
Qing Shihua, who had been standing by, glanced at Ye Wushuang in surprise and hurriedly followed Mu Qiqi out.
Inside the room, Ye Qingfeng, Liu Yuemei, Wang Hongsheng, and Master Xia Lei stood there in a daze, looking at Ye Wushuang in astonishment.
“Uh, what’s wrong?”
Ye Wushuang asked, looking puzzled.
Ye Qingfeng stepped forward and quickly said, “Shuang’er, that was Miss Mu Qiqi, a second-rank spiritual alchemist from the Qingyun Pavilion in the capital. Master Xia Lei went through a lot of trouble to invite her. She did wake you up, so you… should be more polite.”
She was a second-rank spiritual alchemist, someone they couldn’t afford to offend!
Ye Wushuang, however, replied, “I almost got harmed by her… I would be grateful for her good intentions, but she can’t do more harm than good. It could cost someone their life…”
“Shuang’er!”
Liu Yuemei stepped forward and scolded, “Don’t be rude. You should apologize to that young lady later.”
“Mom…”
Seeing Liu Yuemei’s stern expression, Ye Wushuang sighed and said, “Alright, I will.”
In fact, it wasn’t Ye Wushuang’s fault for scolding Mu Qiqi like that.
In his previous life as the Heavenly Emperor, Ye Wushuang was proficient in pill-making, array-setting, and artifact-crafting.
As a pill master, no matter how low the rank, one should always strive for perfection in everything they do!
Especially when it comes to saving lives and treating illnesses.
A single oversight could turn a life-saving act into a harmful one.
If it hadn’t been for the Ninefold Spirit-Taming Tower protecting his soul at the last moment, he would have woken up with a severely damaged soul, and it might have taken months to recover.
“Brother!”
Ye Feifei also stepped forward and happily said, “You’re finally awake…”
Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “It wasn’t really a big problem. I could have woken up on my own in another four or five days at most.”
He pinched his sister’s cheek affectionately and said, “These past few days, I’ve seen you wash my face and clean my hands every day. You’ve worked hard.”
Ye Feifei smiled happily.
Ye Wushuang then looked at Wang Xueqi and nodded with a smile, saying, “You’ve worked hard too.”
“It’s nothing…” Wang Xueqi smiled faintly, but inside, she was nervous and uneasy, almost involuntarily so.
On one side, Ye Wushuang was talking to everyone about his condition, while on the other side, in a courtyard of the Wang family residence, Mu Qiqi, dressed in a white dress, stood by the edge of a pond, her eyes slightly red.
“Qiqi, Qiqi…”
Qing Shihua had caught up and said, “Why did you run away?”
“If I hadn’t run, would I have let him continue to scold me?” Mu Qiqi humphed. “This guy is so annoying. Who does he think he is?”
Qing Shihua, however, gently patted Mu Qiqi’s shoulder and comforted her, saying, “Alright, alright. Miss Mu has been pampered since she was a child and has never experienced such委屈.”
“But did you really not notice that his soul was injured?”
Upon hearing her friend’s question, Mu Qiqi’s pretty face turned red, and she nodded shyly.
