Chapter 123 The Evil Hand: Xiao Feng Arrives
If this had happened during the day, Gu Xun'er's behavior would have definitely caught Xiao Yan's attention, causing him to stop what he was doing and flee at the fastest speed he could ever imagine.
But it was nighttime, and everything was covered up in darkness. At this moment, Xiao Yan felt uneasy, hesitant, and excited. He was completely unaware that Xun'er, whom he cared about, had already woken up and witnessed all his actions!
Slowly, he arrived at Xun'er's bedside. Looking at Xun'er, who was fast asleep, a look of infatuation that shouldn't have appeared at his age appeared on Xiao Yan's face. He slowly stretched out his hands, which were trembling with excitement, and continued to reach forward, wanting to place them on Xun'er, who was already fast asleep in front of him.
Despite her panic, Xun'er, with her eyes tightly closed, was completely unaware that a pair of wicked little hands were slowly reaching out towards her!
Just then, a voice suddenly reached their ears, "Huh? Interesting!"
Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Yan was startled and filled with terror. "Have I been discovered? Should I run now?!"
Unlike him, Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the voice. Someone speaking meant that someone had discovered everything here.
A burst of energy appeared out of nowhere and knocked Xiao Yan unconscious, who was just about to commit his "evil act". Xiao Yan, who had just had the idea of escaping, was knocked unconscious and did not even know how he had lost consciousness!
Bang! The unconscious Xiao Yan, without support, lost his balance and collapsed to the ground. The sound was the thud of his body hitting the earth.
At the same time, Xiao Feng appeared in the room. Looking at Xiao Yan, who was lying unconscious at his feet, a strange look appeared on Xiao Feng's face. He originally thought that Xiao Yan had already taken action, but he did not expect that he would encounter Xiao Yan's first "crime" so coincidentally!
He had knocked Xun'er unconscious beforehand to prevent her guard, Ling Ying, from making any noise that might alert him. All of this was originally for his own benefit, but unexpectedly, his action inadvertently helped Xiao Yan, who was preparing to "commit the crime," allowing him to proceed smoothly. This made him marvel at the coincidence.
Normally, unless it was Xiao Yan's first time taking action, he would definitely not interfere in these matters. After all, it was a matter between the two of them, one willing to give and the other willing to receive, so why should he meddle?
However, this is Xiao Yan's first action, and he happens to have unwittingly helped "Xiao Yan". Therefore, he feels guilty towards Xun'er in this matter, so he naturally has to intervene.
Hearing the sound of Xiao Yan falling to the ground, Xun'er, who was lying on the bed, couldn't hold back any longer. She slowly opened her eyes, wanting to see what had happened and who the person who had suddenly appeared was.
Just then, Xiao Feng suddenly turned around and looked at Xun'er on the bed. At that moment, a ray of moonlight shone through the window, and their eyes met!
"Ah!" Xun'er was startled. This sudden turn of events was something she hadn't expected. For some reason, she closed her eyes again, as if she had fallen asleep and everything that had just happened was an illusion. However, her eyelids, which were trembling with tension, did not escape Xiao Feng's eyes.
Seeing such an amusing scene unfolding before him, Xiao Feng couldn't help but smile.
Since Gu Xun'er wanted to do something like this, there was no need for him to expose her. After all, he wasn't Xiao Yan, and he wouldn't do such a despicable thing.
Lying on the bed, burying her head in the sand, Xun'er was clearly visible to Xiao Feng through a sliver of moonlight. She had willow-leaf eyebrows, cherry lips, and bright, clear eyes beneath her curved eyelashes. Her skin was as white as snow, as tender as a newborn baby's, as if it would burst with moisture if pinched lightly.
Her complexion wasn't very good; it lacked the rosy glow of a normal person's face. Instead, it was rather pale, like that of a patient who had been ill for a long time. However, this paleness didn't detract from her overall appearance. On the contrary, it added a touch of sickly beauty to her face, making people feel sorry for her and want to hold her in their arms and take good care of her.
She's so beautiful at such a young age; she'll definitely grow up to be an absolute beauty!
"One glance could topple a city, a second glance could topple a nation!" For some reason, this line of poetry involuntarily came to Xiao Feng's mind.
He walked gently to Xun'er's bedside and looked at her pale face. Xiao Feng knew that this was not because she had some kind of disease, but because there was a strange fire in her body memory, a Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame ranked fourth on the Strange Fire Ranking!
As the fourth ranked Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking, its power is terrifyingly extraordinary. It is precisely because of this that the young Xun'er was unable to withstand the power of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame. Even with Gu Yuan's help, she would still feel some pain from time to time, which is why her face remained pale.
Picking up Xun'er's hand that was outside, Xiao Feng immediately channeled the Dou Qi of his "Burning Technique" into Xun'er's body. He knew that it was impossible to completely eliminate this pain for her unless she could break through to a higher realm as soon as possible and control the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame within her body. However, this was something he could not interfere with.
However, he believed he could suppress or even temporarily restrain this pain. After all, since the "Burning Technique" he cultivated could suppress the violent factors between different flames, allowing them to coexist peacefully or even merge, the fighting spirit of the "Burning Technique" should be able to restrain or suppress the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame in her body, so that she would no longer suffer.
Xun'er was even more shocked by Xiao Feng's sudden handshake. She immediately stopped trying to hide it and opened her eyes to see what Xiao Feng was up to.
The moment Xun'er opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Feng bathed in moonlight. Under the moonlight, he appeared so sacred and so mysterious...
Add to that Xiao Feng's resolute and handsome face, and he looked exactly like a celestial being descended to earth. Xun'er, who was still a little girl, had never seen such a scene before, and she was immediately stunned on the spot.
After a moment, she finally came to her senses and looked at her hand that Xiao Feng was holding. A blush instantly appeared on her face, even covering up the paleness on her face.
