Chapter 220 Beauty's Heart

Her opponent was a calm old man, whose moves seemed ordinary, but actually contained murderous intent. Not long after, Qing Lianhong was hit in the chest by a palm and flew backwards.

Seeing this, Ye Changsheng immediately rushed forward to help Qing Lianhong up.

Qing Lianhong leaned in his arms, panting slightly, obviously injured.

"Fairy, are you okay?"

Ye Changsheng asked worriedly.

Qing Lianhong shook her head and barely stood up. She sat cross-legged on the ground and began to regulate her breathing.

Ye Changsheng stood by until Qing Lianhong opened her eyes. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Fairy, why don't you let me take you back to the cave?"

Qing Lianhong looked up at him, as if thinking about this proposal.

Finally, she nodded gently.

Huo Lie saw this scene from the side and winked at Ye Changsheng, with an expression that said "you kid has a chance".

Ye Changsheng glared at him helplessly and motioned him to leave quickly.

In this way, Ye Changsheng supported Qing Lianhong and slowly left the arena.

Along the way, neither of them spoke.

Ye Changsheng could feel that Qing Lianhong's body was still trembling slightly, and it was obvious that the injury was not light.

When he came to Qing Lianhong's cave, Ye Changsheng was about to say goodbye, but heard Qing Lianhong whispered: "Thank you for seeing me off. Qing Lianhong is so enthusiastic to help others, and I am grateful. I wonder if you would like to come in for a cup of tea?"

Ye Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then nodded happily. He followed Qing Lianhong into the cave, and couldn't help sighing in his heart that this cold fairy didn't seem to be as unapproachable as she looked.

In Qing Lianhong's cave, the two drank tea and chatted.

"Fairy, why are you so desperate to participate in the competition?"

"Like you, you have suffered a lot of injuries this time, which is not good for your cultivation at all."

Ye Changsheng asked.

Qing Lianhong took a sip of tea, frowned slightly, and seemed to be thinking about how to speak.

Qing Lianhong took a deep breath, "To be honest, I have been stagnant in the middle stage of the Purple Mansion for many years. I have never had enough spirit stones to buy the elixir needed for promotion."

Ye Changsheng was a little surprised, "Fairy has been stationed in the Golden Light Fortress for many years. Aren't the resources obtained by hunting monsters enough?"

Qing Lianhong smiled bitterly and shook his head, "My family's residence was breached in the early years, and the whole family had to make a living in the market. Every month I need to send back a large amount of spirit stones to support my family's livelihood."

Hearing this, Ye Changsheng felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He didn't expect that this seemingly cold fairy had such a heavy burden behind her.

Without thinking, Ye Changsheng took out a crystal clear elixir from the storage ring, "Fairy, this is a Jade Dao Pill, please accept it."

Qing Lianhong widened his eyes and looked at the elixir in Ye Changsheng's hand in disbelief.

"How can this be? The price of the Jade Dao Pill has been raised to two million spirit stones each. How can I accept such a valuable thing?"

Ye Changsheng smiled and handed the pill to Qing Lianhong, "Fairy, don't refuse. I never take back what I give away. If the fairy insists on not accepting it, I will have to throw it on the street."

Qing Lianhong hesitated for a long time, and finally reached out to take the pill.

Her eyes flashed with complex emotions, "Mr. Ye, I...I don't know how to thank you. When I am promoted to the late stage of the Purple Mansion, I will definitely repay some spirit stones."

Ye Changsheng waved his hand, "Fairy, it's important to recuperate now, don't think about these."

Qing Lianhong finally looked at Ye Changsheng with a hint of tenderness.

Ye Changsheng sighed in his heart that this woman was not born indifferent, but was forced by the cruel reality.

He couldn't help but feel a little pity for her.

The two chatted for a long time, and the topic ranged from the cultivation of the heart to the life insights, and then to their own experiences. Qing Lianhong gradually let down her guard, and her words became more relaxed and lively.

Ye Changsheng also took this opportunity to get to know this mysterious fairy more deeply.

Before he knew it, it was getting late.

Ye Changsheng stood up and said goodbye, "It's getting late, I should go back."

Qing Lianhong nodded, "I'll take you out."

Arriving at the entrance of the cave, the two exchanged contact information.

Ye Changsheng reluctantly said, "Fairy, if you need any help, just tell me."

Qing Lianhong smiled slightly, "Thank you, sir."

She paused, as if hesitating about something, and finally said, "Young Master Ye, Qing Lianhong will remember what you did today. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Ye Changsheng shook his head and smiled, "Fairy, you are too kind. It is my honor to make a friend like you."

Qing Lianhong lowered her head, and a blush appeared on her face.

She seemed to have noticed Ye Changsheng's feelings for her, and was a little flustered for a while.

Seeing this, Ye Changsheng's heart moved.

He whispered, "Fairy, we'll see you later."

Qing Lianhong raised her head, a trace of reluctance flashed in her eyes, but she soon regained her composure. She nodded gently, "See you later."

Looking at Ye Changsheng's gradually receding back, Qing Lianhong felt a strange feeling in her heart. She felt that this young man might bring some changes to her life.

Ye Changsheng walked back, replaying every bit of his time with Qing Lianhong in his mind. He secretly made up his mind that no matter what, he would help this strong and fragile woman.

In this way, the fate of the two people quietly intertwined on this extraordinary night.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day for Ye Changsheng to guard the city wall again.

That day, Ye Changsheng came to the city wall early and released eight three-legged golden crows to prepare for the upcoming army of monsters.

However, when the army of monsters approached the city wall, Ye Changsheng's face suddenly changed.

I saw four huge third-level middle-grade monsters falling from the sky and rushing towards him.

They were a golden-winged eagle, two red-crowned cranes and a black crow, each of which exuded a powerful breath that made people's heart palpitate.

"These shameless monsters, four against one!"

Ye Changsheng cursed in his heart and quickly offered the five-element shield to resist.

However, he underestimated the strength of these monsters.

The golden-winged eagle swooped down, and its sharp claws easily tore the five-element shield.

Ye Changsheng only felt a sharp pain, and the claw marks swept across his body. Fortunately, the protective robe Star Robe played a role in time and barely blocked this fatal blow.

Otherwise, he might have been torn in half.

Ye Changsheng's heart trembled, knowing that the situation was not good.

He immediately summoned the third-level ancient treasure Yufeng Wings, and used it with all his strength, flying away from the battlefield like an arrow. Seeing Ye Changsheng escape, the four third-level middle-grade monsters immediately turned their attention to the eight three-legged fire crows.

Although the fire crows were flexible in flying, they could not hold out for too long in the face of the siege of four powerful monsters. Ye Changsheng watched from afar, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

If he did not continue to expose his trump card, the eight three-legged fire crows would probably die, and he himself would not be able to escape the blame of the Dayuan Xiuxian Alliance.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Changsheng gritted his teeth and decided to fight with all his strength.
