Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort novel Chapter 736

Chapter 736: Chapter 171: I Didn’t Do Anything (First Update)

Mu Qingge’s body stiffened, a trace of embarrassment flashing across her face.

Xi Qianxue’s eyes fell on her, carrying a look of both shame and anger.

Mu Qingge quickly turned around, facing away from her, and instinctively explained, "I didn’t take off the clothes."

After speaking, she felt a twitch at the corner of her mouth, thinking that this explanation was worse than no explanation.

Behind her, Xi Qianxue remained silent.

After waiting for a while, Mu Qingge asked reluctantly, "Are you dressed?"

"You can turn around now," Xi Qianxue’s voice finally emerged.

Mu Qingge breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at her. At this moment, Xi Qianxue had already stood up from the ground, and the clothes previously removed by the Charm Demoness were put back on without a trace of anything amiss.

However, her cheeks still retained a slight blush, and her eyes were slightly red.

"I didn’t do anything!" Mu Qingge quickly explained. Afraid that Xi Qianxue would misunderstand, she added, "I didn’t see anything either."

She truly hadn’t seen anything. When the Charm Demoness was removing the clothes, she was learning the Soul-devouring Technique and wasn’t paying attention at all. By the time she had dealt with the Charm Demoness and turned around, Xi Qianxue had already woken up, and she had no time to look at anything else.

Besides, they’re both women; what Xi Qianxue has, she has as well. Even if she had glimpsed something, it wasn’t as if she had lost anything.

But still—

Mu Qingge sighed inwardly, knowing that in Xi Qianxue’s heart, she was a man.

Having her body seen by a man would, of course, make her uncomfortable.

"You don’t need to explain, nor will I make you take responsibility for me because of it," Xi Qianxue said to Mu Qingge.

"..." Mu Qingge was at a loss for words.

Responsible? If she could take responsibility, why would it fall to Xi Qianxue?

Sigh—!

"Earlier..." Xi Qianxue spoke again. The blush on her cheeks gradually faded as she said to Mu Qingge, "Even though I was trapped earlier, I am aware of everything that happened. Thank you for saving me!"

Xi Qianxue was truly grateful.

If not for Mu Qingge, she might have been possessed by that demoness or suffered even greater humiliation. If that were the case, she would rather die immediately.

"No need for thanks," Mu Qingge said with a slight twitch of her lips. She looked at Xi Qianxue, seeing her dazed gaze, and added, "Since we are now a team, looking out for each other is a given."

Xi Qianxue smiled faintly and nodded slightly.

The atmosphere between the two seemed somewhat awkward.

To ease the tension, Xi Qianxue looked around and asked, "Where is the remaining spirit of the Charm Demoness?"

After the Charm Demoness separated from her body, she fainted, so she was unaware of what happened afterward. However, she remembered the events before that quite clearly, especially the beginning when Mu Qingge was contending with the Charm Demoness. Her recollection became hazy once Mu Qingge’s eyes turned golden.

"Did it disappear?" Xi Qianxue thought for a moment, finding this to be the most fitting term.

Mu Qingge nodded and said to her, "Something like that."

Xi Qianxue sighed apologetically and said to Mu Qingge, "It was my momentary negligence that gave her the chance and nearly let her possess me."

Mu Qingge shook her head and said, "Your Spiritual Power hasn’t recovered yet, so naturally, you’re not her match. Besides, these are vengeful spirits, coming and going without a trace, handled by unconventional means, and already difficult to deal with."

Xi Qianxue nodded forlornly.

Mu Qingge said to her, "If you’re feeling better, shall we go back? I reckon Ji Yaohua is getting anxious."

Thinking of the two companions, Xi Qianxue quickly asked, "How is Ying Ze?"

"When I arrived, the situation had already eased," Mu Qingge said to her.

Hearing that Ying Ze’s condition had improved, Xi Qianxue finally relaxed. "I’m fine now; let’s go back."

"Okay."

...

Mu Qingge and Xi Qianxue had just returned to the temporary resting place when they saw Ji Yaohua pacing anxiously back and forth. Ying Ze, who was sitting in the Heaven-Burning Furnace, also opened his eyes, and the blackish-blue aura of death on him had completely faded.

Seeing the two return, the worry in his eyes was relieved.

Ji Yaohua rushed over in excitement, saying to Mu Qingge, "Why did it take so long? I was about to go look for you!" Earlier, he was truly troubled, with one part being Mu Qingge’s prolonged absence, and the other being Ying Ze’s condition.

"A small accident caused some delay," Mu Qingge casually explained.

Ji Yaohua, however, asked with concern, "Are you both alright?" Then, turning his eyes to Xi Qianxue, he asked, "Goddess Xi, what exactly happened before?"

"It was some lingering spirits in the Ancient Battlefield," Mu Qingge quickly answered.

Xi Qianxue had almost been possessed; there was no need to make her recount such an experience again.

"Lingering spirits in the Ancient Battlefield!" Ji Yaohua’s expression changed upon hearing this.
