The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 937 The Saintess's Veil

Nanzhou Holy Flame Island, in the Holy Flame Realm.

Pan Chengfeng swept Xue You into his arms in a princess carry, a faint scent of plum blossoms wafting past his nose.

Pan Chengfeng took a deep breath and said, "It smells so good!"

Seeing Pan Chengfeng's frivolous behavior towards Xue You, Nangong Tian said with a strange expression, "Aren't you afraid she'll suddenly wake up and tear you to pieces?!"

Pan Chengfeng chuckled and said, "She's already severely injured and in a deep coma. Even if I took her right here and now, she wouldn't wake up."

"You mean you already knew about her situation? You did all that on purpose?" After saying that, Nangong Tian muttered to himself, not quite believing it, "Why wouldn't I believe it?"

Pan Chengfeng had heard that Xue You had fought twice with that eighth-tier magical beast, so he used his spiritual sense to scan Xue You several times.

Although Xue You hid it well, Pan Chengfeng's spiritual sense still detected that something was wrong.

Xueyou's internal magical power was abnormally disordered, and the temperature of her body surface was also constantly changing. Although it was very subtle, it could not escape Pan Chengfeng's spiritual sense.

With a casual wave of his hand, a large bed measuring two meters by two meters appeared in front of the two of them.

Nangong Tian was quite shocked, his handsome face turning red as he said, "You really dare... to... to do that to her here??"

Pan Chengfeng scoffed and said, "What woman wouldn't I dare to do? You just stand there and watch."

As he spoke, Pan Chengfeng carried Xueyou to the bed and began to admire her figure.

Nangong Tian hurriedly closed his eyes and turned around, withdrawing his divine sense, and shouted, "I never expected you to be such a lecherous fiend!"

Pan Chengfeng said, "You don't really think I'm going to 'do' her, do you?!"

"Otherwise, why did you bring out the bed?" Nangong Tian said, his face flushed. "Give me the Demon-Companion Grass, and I'll leave immediately. I won't interfere with your 'good deed'."

Pan Chengfeng chuckled and said, "You think you can escape? Even if you run away now, she'll still catch you when she wakes up."

Nangong Tian was taken aback, then his eyes turned sinister as he said, "Otherwise, after you're done, you can kill her while you're at it!"

"Damn! I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless than me!" Pan Chengfeng chuckled and said, "I'll take care of her, but if you want to kill someone, you do it. We'll each do one thing, how about it?"

Nangong Tian rolled his eyes and sneered, "Do you think I'm an idiot?"

The patriarch of the Jade Maiden Sect is no less capable than the one of the Purple Gold Mansion. Anyone who dares to kill Xue You like this will definitely fight to the death.

The current situation is favorable to Nanzhou, and Nangong Tian would not provoke that person from Xizhou for no reason, thus inviting a great enemy to Nanzhou.

Pan Chengfeng was even less likely to kill Xue You. The two states of the Southwest were already in cahoots, and he would have raped Xue You first and then killed her.

If the three continents attack one continent, the Eastern Continent will be finished.

Moreover, Pan Chengfeng had gleaned some information from Xue You's few words, and although he hadn't thought about it in detail yet, he figured it was probably accurate.

Pan Chengfeng bent down to examine Xueyou's injuries. After carefully examining her from head to toe, he took her pulse, closed his eyes, and fell into deep thought.

Seeing Pan Chengfeng's serious expression, Nangong Tian, ​​who was not far away, quickly asked, "How is her injury?"

Pan Chengfeng shook his head and kept clicking his tongue, making Nangong Tian unbearably itchy. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? What are you clicking your tongue for?!"

Pan Chengfeng opened his eyes and said, "I didn't expect this woman to have such powerful magic, and such a great figure too~~"

"What?!" Nangong Tian roared, "Do you even know anything about medicine? If you don't, get out of the way!"

As he spoke, Nangong Tian also came to the bedside. The two of them busied themselves for a while, and finally concluded, "The injuries are very serious."

Neither of them were medical students; they only had a superficial understanding of medicine.

Although they could tell that Xueyou's internal injuries were severe, neither of them could give a specific answer on how to treat them.

Pan Chengfeng said, "Her magical power is profound, she should be fine."

Give her a few of each type of healing pill, then wait for her to wake up on her own.

Nangong Tian nodded helplessly and said, "That's all we can do for now..."

Pan Chengfeng reached out to remove Xue You's veil; he had long been curious about what this woman looked like.

Just as his hand was about to touch Xueyou's veil, a large hand suddenly grabbed Pan Chengfeng's wrist.

Pan Chengfeng turned his head and asked, "What are you doing? How can we feed her the pills if we don't remove her veil?"

Nangong Tian said with some lingering fear, "I almost forgot one thing: never touch her veil, or we'll all be in trouble when she wakes up!"

Pan Chengfeng asked in surprise, "What? Does removing her veil mean I have to marry her?"

"That's right!" Nangong Tian said seriously, "Didn't the elders of the sect tell you about the rules for the Holy Maiden of the Jade Maiden Sect?"

Pan Chengfeng shook his head and asked curiously, "It wasn't mentioned. Please enlighten me, Brother Nangong, about the rules."

Nangong Tian replied, "I'm not entirely sure either. I only know that this was established by the founding ancestor of the Jade Maiden Sect. Isn't your Sect Master Shangguan of the Thunder Control Sect a victim of this rule?"

Pan Chengfeng was even more curious now. Shangguan Yun had never married, so how could he have become a 'victim'? So he pressed on, "Are you saying that my sect leader removed the veil of the Jade Maiden Sect's Holy Maiden?"

Nangong Tian nodded and said, "I heard about this from my father. The appearance of the Holy Maiden of the Jade Maiden Sect cannot be seen by outsiders. Whoever sees it will die."

Unless she can't kill you and is willing to marry you, she's the mortal enemy of the entire Jade Maiden Sect.

Pan Chengfeng was startled and quickly withdrew his large hand, saying, "Just because I saw her means I have to marry her? Or I'll die?? Isn't this Mu Wanqing from the Eight Departments?"

"What Mu Wanqing?" Nangong Tian said angrily, "I was talking about the Jade Maiden Sect's Holy Maiden again, where did you get this idea?"

Pan Chengfeng quickly apologized, "No, no, please continue."

Nangong Tian continued, "I heard from my father that the previous Jade Maiden Sect Saintess, who is now the Jade Maiden Sect Master, had her veil lifted by Sect Master Shangguan."

But after seeing the Holy Maiden's appearance, Sect Leader Shangguan ran away.

This incident caused quite a stir back then, and many people knew about it.

The Jade Maiden Sect Master had been hunting down the Shangguan Sect Master for decades, but had failed to succeed.

Finally, she asked Sect Leader Shangguan to marry her, but Sect Leader Shangguan did not agree to her request.

That's how your Thunder Control Sect and the Jade Maiden Sect became such bitter enemies.

"I see, so there are melodramatic stories everywhere." Pan Chengfeng said with a smile, "Uncle Yun has quite a few romantic escapades."

Liu Qian from the Beast Taming Sect over there hadn't even figured out what was going on, and now here comes the Jade Maiden Sect's leader. Who knows what else might come up?

Pan Chengfeng suddenly had a strange idea and looked at Nangong Tiandao: "Brother Nangong, do you think that the sect leader of the Jade Maiden Sect might have deliberately shown his appearance to our sect leader?"

After all, our sect leader was once the most handsome man on the continent!

Nangong Tian shook his head and said, "How would I know? Anyway, even if it were me, I wouldn't dare marry a woman who has been chasing me for decades."

Pan Chengfeng looked down at Xue You and muttered, "I wouldn't object to marrying her, but she definitely wouldn't want to be a concubine."

No, no, I don't have Uncle Yun's charm. This little vixen would definitely kill me. I can't beat her!

After saying that, Pan Chengfeng got up and walked to the cauldron to start eating meat. He hadn't yet recovered from the energy he had consumed over the past hundred days.

Seeing this, Nangong Tian also got up and found a place to meditate and recover. He didn't dare to feed Xueyou any pills, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain it to her when she woke up.

And so, neither of them dared to touch Xueyou's veil, and could only leave her on the bed, waiting for her to wake up on her own.

Little did they know that although Xueyou was unconscious, she was still conscious, and every word of their conversation was etched into her mind.
