Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead's Counterattack

Seeing her get hurt under his watch, when he wasn’t able to protect her in time, a feeling of self-blame sorrowfully occupied his entire mind.

“SuSu, don’t worry. I’m not hurt, really. This blood is all Liu ZhenXin’s, believe me.” XunMi knew what her lover was thinking and immediately explained. She raised the originally bleeding hand to GongZi Su’s face so he can take a look himself. There wasn’t even a bit of a wound left.

GongZi Su relaxed in his heart but his facial expression remained tense. He felt there was a need to have a serious talk with her. No matter what, she needed to place her safety as her highest priority.

When they returned to the room, GongZi Su placed her on the bed. He dampened a handkerchief and began wiping her bloody hand. Afterwards, he picked up two Mengluo fruits from the table.

“Your body can’t stand high intensity usage of spiritual energy right now. It’s only because that woman’s strength wasn’t strong that you weren’t hurt this time. If you encountered a soul senior, do you know what would have happened?” As GongZi Su spoke, he realized what this feeling was. This was fear, worry, and terror.

Just like Luo Ling said, he had always been immersed in cultivation. There wasn’t anything else that could raise his interest. That was why he had been so helpless and quiet when they first met.

XunMi obediently munched on the Mengluo fruits. She seriously nodded along to every sentence. However, she couldn’t help but curve her lips up. Wow, husband is so caring.

“SuSu, I promise. I absolutely won’t fight in any battles I’m not sure of winning. Really, I promise. I still need to go back to ShengGu with you so I will definitely come out without any harm. Don’t worry, alright? I will take care of myself but you also need to promise me that you won’t get hurt either. Just like you worry about me, I will also be worried about you.”

You are the person I care about the most in this world. I would rather get hurt myself instead of seeing you in pain. But I also know that if I were to get hurt, you would also feel pain. So I will take care of myself and make sure to grow stronger so that I can stand by your side.

GongZi Su’s cold peach blossom eyes could only fit the person in front of him. Her red gown was a flirtatious color but it made XunMi appear more bright and lively.

“I’ll wait for you.” He didn’t say any superfluous words. Tonight, he needed to rush back with Luo Ling tonight. He was done with his matters here. That demon was dead, and they will leave disciples behind to participate in the remaining two days of the competition.

XunMi could tell that SuSu needed to leave soon. Her heart ached a little. She was reluctant to part with him but she quickly changed her perspective.

When she finished her business here, she’ll be able to go and find SuSu. It will be soon. Liu ZhenXin was already dead so there was only the frustrating Liu family head to take care off now.

As for the requirement for HanShuang to become a winner of life, XunMi has already been slowly shaping that path for her. After she breaks through to soul sage, she’ll be able to head off to Shenggu. Besides, it will only take HanShuang at most up to the beginning of next year to break into soul sage level.

GongZi Su and XunMi sat silently, the atmosphere peaceful and comfortable. It was as if time slowed, a beauty forming in stillness.

When Luo Ling came to call for GongZi Su, they knew that their time was up.

“SuSu, this is for you.” XunMi grabbed GongZi Su’s arm as he stood up. She pulled out a large bottle of essence pills from her inventory and slipped it to him. These were all XiSui and DaHuan pills that she bought from the space market. As they were system-produced, they were guaranteed to be premium quality.

GongZi Su didn’t ask what was inside the bottle but accepted her endowment. He turned and walked two steps but couldn’t resist retracing his steps back to her.

Pulling her into his embrace, he spoke. “Come find me. I’ll be waiting for you.” His warm voice flooded into her ear.

Luo Ling watched the reluctance parting with wide eyes. If this was just a few days ago, no one could have even imagined such a scene occurring. But now, reality was widening their world views.

GongZi Su released XunMi and, using spiritual energy, sped away. He was afraid that if he left slowly, he’ll try to take her back with him.

But he knew he couldn’t. He knew she still had many things she wanted to finish.

Luo Ling watched flabbergasted as GongZi Su quickly disappeared and left him behind. As expected, when one finds his wife, they forget his brothers.

While blaming GongZi Su in his heart, Luo Ling rushed after him to catch up.

“Teacher?” Ouyang HanShuang whispered to her distracted teacher.

XunMi munched on a Mengluo fruit. “Why are you frowning? If someone didn’t know, then they would think you were being abandoned.”

Ouyang HanShuang: ...

She was just trying to looking out for her teacher. She had been scared her teacher would feel heartbroken but suddenly her teacher had turned the attention to her.

“Right, is the Liu ZhenXin matter handled?” XunMi changed the topic again as she leaned down on the bed.

“En, Liu ZhenXin is definitely dead. When that Liu family head heard, he exploded on the spot. Rumor has it that he wants to take revenge and doesn’t plan on letting you off.” Ouyang HanShuang’s attention was successfully shifted as she spoke up in anger.

“That Liu family head really is no good. He actually treated that trash Liu ZhenXin as a treasure. Teacher, you were right to leave Liu family. If not, you would have been ruined by him sooner or later.” She didn’t have a good opinion of Liu HuiRan to begin with. Now, she only wanted to get rid of this nuisance.

XunMi indifferently raised an eyebrow. She wasn’t the original soul so she had limited feelings of affection towards Liu HuiRan. However, no matter who the debt was owed to, it still needed to be paid. Since she was now occupying the original soul’s identity, XunMi naturally needed to fulfill her wishes.

“Don’t get angry, As long as he doesn’t actively come to provoke me, it’ll be fine.” If he dared to make the first move, then she won’t show mercy.

XunMi’s cold expression didn’t change at all.

Ouyang HanShuang’s pretty bright eyes looked up at her teacher, her eyes flooding with emotion.

Ahahahah! Teacher is so domineering! Especially when she was acting so cool, she looked so handsome!

The teacher disciple pair began scheming their next actions. XunMi had read the original plot so she knew there were treasures to be found. It wasn’t her style not to act on such good information. Thus, she decided that, after the competition, she’ll take her disciple to rake in all those treasures. In the process, she can let HanShuang see the world and raise her level through fighting demons.

Speaking of which, it’s been too long since she’s last been to Death’s Eye. She needed to go this time. She quite missed the demon beasts there.

Demon beasts: why do we get the feeling that some bad thing is about to happen?
