Chapter 981 - 736: "Venting
Shen Tang’s face suddenly turned red, biting her lip, both embarrassed and annoyed, she said, "You... No wonder when I was in the Royal Palace, I felt someone was spying on me, it was you, wasn’t it!"
Jin’s ears also turned red, knowing he wasn’t acting honorably, he pressed his lips, his voice slightly quieter, "... It was me."
At that time, he didn’t dare to show up, only dared to hide far away in the dark to secretly watch her.
He knew she was always with that fox during that period, and while he breathed a sigh of relief, being with the fox meant she wouldn’t be in danger.
But watching the two of them tender and loving together made his heart ache.
Jin secretly snuck into the Royal Palace at that time, Shen Tang didn’t notice him, but Shen Li actually knew he had come all along, just never exposed it, acted like he didn’t see, and never mentioned it to Shen Tang.
Shen Li knew Jin was always in the dark, so when trouble came from the Fox Clan side, he was at ease letting Shen Tang go alone, because he was sure Jin would protect her.
After hearing Jin’s words, Shen Tang’s emotions became even more complicated.
Back then, she was both angry and sad, but things had passed after all, and Jin had saved her time and again, it would be false to say there was no emotional stir in her heart.
But thinking back to those words from that dog of a man, she still felt it was too much and couldn’t forgive him easily!
Shen Tang took a deep breath, her mind a mess, feeling both sides needed to calm down, she reached out and pushed him on the chest.
Clearly her strength wasn’t great, yet the man leaned back as if he had no bones, letting out a slight gasp, sounding like it hurt.
Shen Tang was startled, hurriedly looked down, only to find Jin’s abdomen was injured.
Although it was wrapped with bandages beforehand, any movement tugged at the wound, causing the bandages to seep with blood again.
Her voice instantly became flustered, "You’re injured? Why didn’t you say earlier?!"
Seeing her anxious appearance, Jin’s lips curled into a smile, "It’s fine, this kind of wound is nothing."
For him, these wounds were indeed nothing, he was accustomed to it.
Moreover, the healing ability Shen Tang had given him earlier was still present, it could have healed directly, but he deliberately kept this most prominent wound.
Of course, Shen Tang didn’t notice the little tricks of this dog man at the moment, hurriedly and cautiously removed the blood-soaked bandages, and looked down at the horizontal wound on his abdomen.
Although most of it had scabbed over, one could imagine how painful it must have been at the time.
He says it’s fine!
The stomach is pierced through, still fine!
This dog man’s mouth is sure hard, as long as he can still speak, it’s "fine"!
"Who did this? That purple-haired Divine Envoy?" Shen Tang’s fingers gently brushed over the heavy wound on his abdomen, her heart twisted with pain.
She didn’t think anyone else could hurt him like this, thought it over, only that Divine Envoy.
Admittedly, that Divine Envoy’s strength was unusually powerful, much more formidable than other Divine Envoys, and gave her a particularly eerie feeling.
Shen Tang guessed that purple-haired Divine Envoy was at least a high-ranking member within the Hand of Creation.
Jin nodded, his voice a bit hoarse, "Ran into him while rescuing you from the base, he tried to stop me, so I fought with him and snatched you back."
Actually, knowing Jin’s temperament, that bastard dared treat her like this, he wished to tear the opponent to shreds! Even if it meant risking his life, he would drag him down to hell with him!
But at that time he was still with Shen Tang, could only restrain the impulse for a deadly fight with the opponent, and bring her back first.
Jin looked at her lowered, moist eyes, like she was again feeling guilty and sad, his gaze flickered, leaned over to rest his head on her shoulder, furrowed his brows seeming to draw in air painfully, his voice pitiful, "Tangtang, it hurts..."
His voice was extremely weak, as if truly in pain, about to die.
"Don’t be afraid, I’ll heal you first, talk about other things later."
Seeing his abdominal wound seemed to have reopened, blood flowing more profusely, Shen Tang suddenly panicked even more, couldn’t care about anything else, naturally couldn’t care about his little actions, hastily used the healing ability to treat his injury.
Pure green healing energy extended from her slender white fingertips, penetrating the man’s wound, the wound began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Feeling this familiar and warm power, as if awakening countless past memories, Jin’s face showed a reminiscent expression.
In this moment, just like before.
Every time he was injured, she would be so anxious, sometimes nearly in tears, making him feel even if he sacrificed his life for her, it would be worth it.
"Tangtang..." Jin softly called, pressed his lips, hesitated for a moment then said in a low voice, "Thank you for giving me that Crystal Core, otherwise, I would have died early and would not have seen this day to meet you."
