Little Phoenix Is Not An Immortal - Chapter 52
Chapters 52: God Realm’s Plot (2)
Tian Zhen was on the verge of fainting. Don’t go! There is still a worm in my stomach!
Reading her thoughts, Lu Xiao Can consoled her. “Once this drop of blood dries, it will immediately die. It’s safe to be eaten.” He then faced the Devil God, saluted, and retreated.
The sound of leaving footsteps slowly disappeared. Tian Zhen bore with the nauseas sensation, and shakily spoke to herself in her mind saying repeatedly: This isn’t a worm, this is egg white….
The Hall was once again blanketed in silence. After a long while, the Devil God spoke.
“Noisy and clamorous Phoenix. Losing your voice must be making you suffer.”
He has understood her well. Tian Zhen was in a half vegetative state. These several days have already been very hard. After hearing everything she still could not describe her feelings at the moment. She also understood that Lu XiaoCan wanted to save himself, but she couldn’t blame him. She accepted that perhaps she didn’t hold such an important place in his heart, and that he also might not necessarily cure this poison…….
Her ears could perceive no movement, but a familiar dark aura moved closer, enshrouding her completely in it.
Feeling that he was standing in front of the couch, Tian Zhen had a vague expectant feeling.
Since he can see she’s about to turn into stone, he ought to be like GuanHe YueWei. Like touching her face lightly and giving comforting words, such as: “I am here, don’t be afraid” etc.
However, even after a long time, there was no movement.
Was this ‘to suffer from unrequited love’?
As Tian Zhen lost all hope and was feeling depressed, she suddenly felt the left side of her chest become heavier.
Indifferent people shouldn’t be taking initiative, else they are beasts! Tian Zhen’s heart at the moment was far from the normal, it was booming like a tractor instead.
The large hand, which was on her left chest just above the solar plexus, remained unmoved for a long time.
The Hall was filled with an odd silence, except for the sound of a fiercely beating heart.
Tian Zhen’s face felt incomparably hot, her breathing also became unstable. She couldn’t help but feel happy for being in a vegetative state; she at least escaped the awkwardness of having to face him.
That hand started moving down, stroking the places it passed by. It felt comforting.
As a result of the poisoning, Tian Zhen’s blood flow had slowed and almost stagnated. However, at this moment, due to emotional excitation, it had started to flow rapidly again. Her body seemed to have become feverish, and the numb sensation had also eased up a lot.
“En?” Devil God hummed thoughtfully. He withdrew his hand and said, “Shi Dan poison can be sustained.”
Hearing his tone of voice, which seemed to show nothing abnormal, Tian Zhen finally realized that he had only wanted to probe the toxicity of the poison and nothing more. How could she have had such thoughts? How could she have misunderstood that the honest and upright Devil God would ever take advantage of a person in a precarious situation?
Thinking that her initial thoughts may have already been known by the Devil God. Tian Zhen wished she could be dead already.translat ed by puretl. com / don’t re post / steal
As expected, the Devil God said, “Can it be healed this way?”
For a moment, a strand of long hair fell on her neck, and she could feel him slowly leaning over her with a hand on her shoulder. This was obviously the action of wanting to embrace her.
Her blood seemed to rush in excitement again. Tian Zhen was left feeling endlessly surprised.
He finally responded after her taking the initiative with him for so long, and it was possibly mutual as well… Good, not too many demands should be made during this time, it was better than nothing to die after being embraced by him.
Who knew in the next moment the hand was taken back.
(E/N: is this what they call a cockblock?)
“You have returned.”
“Your Highness Xi.”
Footsteps drew closer till it stopped in front of the couch.
Tian Zhen was able to imagine the complexion of this woman at this point. She had used Lu XiaoCan to drive me away from the Demon Palace, but who knew that in a few months, I would be back. And even to come back in this manner, can’t apologize enough.
Heavenly Lady Huan’s tone was calm. “I heard from Jiu SiCang that she remained unconscious. Is it serious?”
Hearing her words, Tian Zhen was both grateful and helpless. It seemed like Jiu SiCang had enough loyalty to not tell her that it was the work of a poison. However this must have been planned by Lu XiaoCan, he must have commanded the Demons to not tell her anything.
The Devil God also did not provide an explanation. “Must rest to recuperate.”
“In that case, Your Highness, allow me to look after her.”
“I will have Xiao Can take care of her. Your Qin Hall has already been built, you should move there.”
“Does Your Highness no longer trust me?”
“You worry too much”, said the Devil God. “I believe that the conflict between you and her is too hard to be resolved and she wouldn’t trust you.”
Heavenly Lady Huan did not insist and only departed after requesting permission to withdraw.
Even if you are full of good intentions, I think I would be safer the further I am away from you. Tian Zhen stopped worrying. It was probably because of the spread of the toxin, she again fell into a deep sleep.translat ed by puretl. com / don’t re post / steal
Muddled and ignorant of the time or day, like in a dream yet seemingly in reality, she felt like a pair of arms were embracing her. It felt familiar yet strange, but made her feel reassured, making her want to indulge in the feeling forever…
