Xu Yuan raised his eyes to Li Qingyan, frowning as he spoke,
"You said that only the meridians were damaged, didn't you?"
Li Qingyan met his concerned gaze with a smile, answering,
"The Mo Snake's energy was tremendous. In order to delay its pursuit, I had to withstand its attacks head-on. Only broke a few times, minor injuries."
Xu Yuan's eyes sharpened at her words, gripping her wrist with slight force, "Broke a few times? You call that a minor injury? I have here..."
"No need."
Li Qingyan pulled her hand back, seemingly unconcerned as she said,
"I entered the path of martial arts. Although I am not as peculiar as those demons, my body has an exceptionally strong recovery ability. This sort of external wound and the pain it brings will not affect my combat ability. If anything, it makes me more alert."
Xu Yuan heard this, his gaze on her turning rather odd.
Alert? It's more like arousal.
