After knocking out the severely injured Caspian, the young maiden’s face flushed, and virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net head to look in the distance.
Darnley Valley was covered in snow all year round. At a glance, it seemed endless, and one could not tell where they were.
“Let‘s go there first.” When the young lady saw the undulating mountains afar, virtual-novel.net nodded and carried Caspian on virtual-novel.net shoulder. Then, virtual-novel.net grabbed the Ghoul-Locker Spear and headed in the direction.
The young maiden appeared to be around 15 years old. Her face was well-defined, and virtual-novel.net had a tall nose. However, virtual-novel.net eyes were not as dark as Caspian’s. Instead, they were a pale blue color, and virtual-novel.net hair was the color of a chestnut She appeared exotic. The clothes virtual-novel.net wore were different from ordinary people. They were in bright, colorful colors, knitted in different techniques than usual. Nonetheless, virtual-novel.net appeared graceful and charming in the dress.
It was obvious that the young lady was not an ordinary person. Even in the bitter cold, virtual-novel.net was only wearing a thin dress, exposing virtual-novel.net delicate snow-white wrists and calves. What was more surprising was that virtual-novel.net had two small snakes around virtual-novel.net wrist. Normal people would wear bracelets or cuffs, but there were two snakes wrapped around hers, one was green and the other red. The snakes were even slowly squirming at that moment.
As virtual-novel.net carried Caspian on virtual-novel.net shoulders, virtual-novel.net did not walk in big steps, but virtual-novel.net speed was astonishingly fast. It was as if virtual-novel.net was sliding across the snow, and they arrived at the seemingly distant location in just about half a day.
The young maiden chose a spot at the center of a nearby mountain. After deciding on a place, virtual-novel.net slammed on the snow in front of her. With a muffled sound, the snow collapsed and revealed a cave.
“There shouldn’t be a problem now.” The young girl smiled, clapping virtual-novel.net hands. Later, virtual-novel.net carried Caspian in and closed the cave entrance with snow, leaving only a tiny crack to observe the outside.
The snow cave was not the biggest, but it was spacious for the two of them. More importantly, the place was able to block the cold and howling wind outside. Then, the young maiden finally carefully examined Caspian. Her eyes fell on Caspian‘s face first, and a complex expression of distress, anger, embarrassment, rage appeared in them. She could not help but touch Caspian’s cheek with virtual-novel.net slender fingertips, and virtual-novel.net felt virtual-novel.net heart miss a beat.
“It’s been more than two years, but I know that you’re still alive. Those people won’t be able to kill you.” The young lady‘s voice trembled. Then, however, virtual-novel.net suddenly became angry, and virtual-novel.net slapped Caspian.
Caspian was still unconscious, and virtual-novel.net did not respond to that slap. Besides, his flesh and blood were condensed, so not only would virtual-novel.net not be awakened by a slap, it would not leave a mark on his face either.
The young lady grinned. “Wow. I didn’t expect that after two years of not seeing each other, you’ve undergone such great changes!”
After snorting a few times, the young lady’s eyes had a look of distress in them. “Forget it. Let’s wake you up first, jerk I’ve spent so much time just to find you, and I don’t want to talk to your corpse, mumbling to myself!”
Next, the young maiden quickly took out a few small items from virtual-novel.net storage bag. Then, virtual-novel.net adjusted Caspian’s position first and fed virtual-novel.net two precious medicine pills. After that, virtual-novel.net dug out some snow, placed them in a basin, started a fire, and let it boil. Once virtual-novel.net did those, virtual-novel.net frowned as virtual-novel.net stared at Caspian’s tattered clothes that were dirtied with bloodstains. At that moment, Caspian’s pants were even frozen. Soon, the young lady took out a pair of small silver scissors. After a few snips, Caspian’s pants were cut open.
While virtual-novel.net did that, the previously calm young lady was somewhat trembling now, and an alluring blush appeared on virtual-novel.net cheeks as virtual-novel.net tried not to look around. However, virtual-novel.net was too flustered, and virtual-novel.net accidentally caught a glimpse of something.
The young maiden screamed, and virtual-novel.net cheeks turned redder than before. Even virtual-novel.net eyes turned misty.
“You’re such a jerk, Caspian! I can’t believe I’m serving you now!” As virtual-novel.net soaked the towel in hot water and carefully wiped away the bloodstains on Caspian’s body, the young lady kept mumbling, “If it weren’t for me saving you in time, you’d be blown up. You owe me a favor! Humph! I might be taking care of you now, but you‘re going to be my slave for the rest of your life!”
At the thought of the joyous scene, the young maiden started to hum a song. It was not a commonly heard tune, and it sounded unique as if it were from another country. Nonetheless, the atmosphere felt pleasant as the melodious song echoed in the small cave.
Besides that, the young lady had a crisp voice, and it was as if virtual-novel.net was born to fascinate people with virtual-novel.net voice. Not long after, the snow cave was filled with a charming and gentle hint, making others blush.
As virtual-novel.net wiped Caspian, the young girl suddenly said, “His external wounds are healing so fast!”
Her eyes flashed with confusion. She remembered well that when virtual-novel.net dragged Caspian out of the explosion, his skin and flesh were severely wounded, and blood was even gushing out uncontrollably from his injuries.
On their joumey here, Caspian’s wounds gradually stopped bleeding. The young lady thought the bitter cold froze his injuries, which was why virtual-novel.net was not bleeding anymore.
The young maiden even prepared for when Caspian would once again bleed out horribly in the warm snow cave, so virtual-novel.net gave virtual-novel.net precious medicines. However, what baffled virtual-novel.net was that more than half of Caspian’s external wounds miraculously recovered. These cuts were initially as big as a thumb, yet they shrunk into less than a quarter of the size. The other fine and fragmented wounds healed even earlier, and virtual-novel.net could not even see a scar.
“What happened to you in those two years?! Your physique is beyond the level of physical training!” the young lady exclaimed, and virtual-novel.net eyes flickered with surprise, “Are you Caspian?”
She gave it a thought and mercilessly poked at Caspian’s chest.
In that instant, the spot on his chest dented, and the initially unconscious Caspian also revealed a painful expression. Then, virtual-novel.net threw up a mouthful of blood.
When the young lady saw that, virtual-novel.net breathed a sigh of relief. “Thankfully, you still have your internal injuries.”
If Caspian heard virtual-novel.net saying that, virtual-novel.net might immediately leap and slap virtual-novel.net away. She was here to treat his wounds, yet virtual-novel.net was rejoining about his internal injuries?
That was so inhumane of her.
After carefully cleaning up Caspian’s body, the young lady took out an extremely luxurious white tiger skin from virtual-novel.net storage bag and covered Caspian. Later, virtual-novel.net hugged virtual-novel.net knees and sat beside Caspian, quietly watching his side profile. Then, the girl pouted and showed a look of dissatisfaction.
“Your injuries are recovering so quickly. It seems that your life hasn’t been as miserable as I thought in the past two years. Were you imprisoned in the hellhole prison for a year? Or did you have other fortuitous adventures? Sigh. You’re such a huge fool. Do you know how hard it was to look for you? It must be great being you now, just lying there and not moving. Based on your body state, even without me saving you, you can heal on your own despite the serious injuries. Why’d I waste so much effort to save you?”
