Chapter 77

The smell of virginity was no longer detectable on her body; instead, a pungent stench hit the nose. Bu Li did not show any disgust, but firmly grabbed Yang Cance's shoulders and turned her body over. Her face and body were covered with abrasions from the rough gravel, and it was unclear what she was still persisting in, despite being in such a state.

Calling Dahei over, Bu Li took the water bladder from Dahei's back, thought for a moment, and then poured it directly over her head. Yang Cance shivered and moaned, waking up. She勉强 opened her eyes and saw Bu Li's face, which she hated but couldn't help but hate. Yang Cance was startled, her heart racing, almost fainting again.

At least she still had some consciousness and recognized herself, Bu Li felt a bit relieved. Yang Cance still had a chance to be saved. After walking through the Divine Legacy Mountains, Bu Li's mindset had changed without him realizing it. The Western Mountain Remnant Clan was never a lowly race. Yang Cance's determined eyes and her stubbornness to never give up even in death were also a force that changed Bu Li.

"Drink a little water," Bu Li said. For someone as weak as Yang Cance, even if water and rice were fed to her, she wouldn't be able to swallow it. The slightly wet lips and a bit of water could give Yang Cance infinite hope.

Yang Cance stubbornly turned her head to the side, her body already extremely weak. Even such a simple action was extremely difficult for her. She barely managed to turn her face a little before she couldn't continue.

Cai Xiaoxian poked her head out beside Bu Li and asked, "Brother, who is she?"

"She is Yang Cance, whom I defeated on the Heavenly Gift Platform," Bu Li said.

"Oh, it's her. I didn't recognize her. Wait, I remember she was a very beautiful sister, how could she be so ugly?" Cai Xiaoxian's words hit Yang Cance like a hammer, making her vision go dark and faint again.

Bu Li was at a loss, these girls cared more about their appearance than their lives. Cai Xiaoxian's words were clearly unintentionally fatal to Yang Cance. Words can be like knives, just like that. Every natural fool, when cut open, has a black heart. Was Cai Xiaoxian one of them?

"Xiaoxian, don't talk nonsense," Bu Li said. Cai Xiaoxian saw Yang Cance faint and didn't realize she had caused trouble unintentionally. But she didn't argue, just stuck out her tongue and playfully blinked her big eyes at Yang Cance.

Bu Li pinched Yang Cance's philtrum, waking her up again. Bu Li was somewhat relieved. With Yang Cance's extremely weak constitution, it would be normal for her to die from Cai Xiaoxian's words.

"A dead person, why are you wasting time? Hurry up and move on," a female disciple of Henshan Sect, seeing Yang Cance on the verge of death, impatiently scolded. She had forgotten Bu Li's stubbornness and reverted to her old ways.

"Wait a moment," Bu Li said, not wanting to tangle with this person and just went through the motions.

"If you want to die, it's very easy," Bu Li didn't say much to the female disciple of Henshan Sect. Looking at the awake Yang Cance, he said seriously, "You've been persisting in not dying, there must be a reason. No matter how much you hate me, live first. Anything is possible. Even if you want to kill me, I'll give you a chance."

Dahei cursed in his heart. Damn, Bu Li is a real flirt. Seeing a pretty girl, he acts so low, even talking about giving her a chance to kill him. If I met a beautiful she-bear, I wouldn't say such crazy things.

Yang Cance's eyes were originally dull, but after Bu Li's words, a glimmer of light flashed, whether it was the reflection of the sunset or something else.

Bu Li knew Yang Cance heard him, still had consciousness, and understood his words. A smile curved at the corner of his mouth, "That's right."

The pale tongue greedily licked the water droplets on her lips, and Yang Cance slowly closed her eyes, recovering her strength.

"I'll treat your back wounds in a while. It might hurt. If you can't bear it, just faint. It will reduce your suffering," Bu Li said, pulling the snow wolf skin beside Yang Cance to cover her. The skin was covered with congealed blood, stiff, and very uncomfortable to touch.

Yang Cance didn't speak, her eyes moved slightly, and her eyelids trembled.

The female disciple of Henshan Sect impatiently cursed, "Running into a dead person like this, what bad luck."

Hu Wu originally stood aside, watching silently. He thought Bu Li was a decent young man, but his temperament was too fussy and not decisive enough. Hearing the female disciple of Henshan Sect, he was secretly amused, subtly stepping back, giving Bu Li some space. He guessed how much resentment Bu Li would have and was happy to watch the show.

Hu Wu saw Dahei also subtly stepping back, and he was even more amused. This young man's hunting pet was truly unique, not only perceptive but also cowardly. He wondered where Bu Li got it from.

Hearing the female disciple of Henshan Sect, Bu Li's face turned cold. He put Yang Cance in Cai Xiaoxian's arms. Cai Xiaoxian didn't mind the stench, just worriedly asked, "Brother, will this sister die?"

"No," Bu Li said softly. Hearing this, Cai Xiaoxian beamed, gently holding Yang Cance, overjoyed.

Bu Li stood up with a light stretch, easily lifting the female disciple of Henshan Sect, like a chick.

Suddenly, the female disciple's back tattoos disappeared, and she panicked, flailing her limbs in the air, her two Emei daggers falling to the ground.

"The Remnant Clan are also people," Bu Li looked coldly at the female disciple in his hand. If he wanted to, he could crush her with a tight grip. Such a person, with only soul power and no combat experience, was powerless against him. "Don't say such things again, or I'll show you what a dead person really is."

Bu Li let go, and the female disciple fell to the ground with a thud, clutching her neck and crying after a while.

Damn! These people from the Soul澜 Continent never treated the Remnant Clan as human, not even as pigs or dogs. Bu Li despised them, didn't even call the female disciple, took Yang Cance from Cai Xiaoxian, and walked forward.

Hu Wu sighed, not ruthless enough. Killing, dismembering, and erasing traces, that's what should happen. Just scaring her, what's the point? Thinking of this, Hu Wu glanced at Dahei, seeing the same disdain in his eyes. Hu Wu was delighted, lightly following behind Dahei, who couldn't shake him off no matter how he tried.

Dahei was in distress, criticizing Bu Li in his heart. Suddenly, he felt a cold presence behind him, startled, and realized it was Hu Wu. He couldn't figure out what he had done to offend this old man. He didn't know that his disdain for Bu Li had piqued Hu Wu's interest, leading to this trouble.

The female disciple of Henshan Sect lay on the ground, sobbing, but no one cared. It was dark, and there were vague sounds of wild beasts moving in the grass. If it were large beasts, even if they couldn't fight, the female disciple wouldn't be so panicked. But thinking of small, disgusting beasts like rats, she trembled. Seeing Bu Li and the others walking further away, fear overcame her, and she quickly stood up, picked up her Emei daggers, and ran after them.

Not far ahead was a depression, sheltered from the wind and dry. Bu Li took some dry powder from his pocket and sprinkled it around. He called Dahei to find some firewood and lit a campfire. He had some dried meat, which he shared. Seeing the female disciple of Henshan Sect following, he didn't want to make things too difficult for her, threw her a piece of meat, and didn't say much.

The female disciple of Henshan Sect held the meat, not knowing what to say. After a while, she took a small bite. The meat was perfectly dried, without the stench of wild beasts, melting in her mouth, like a delicately prepared dish.

After eating, Bu Li wiped his greasy hands on Dahei, who didn't mind. He laid the animal skin on the ground, and Cai Xiaoxian carefully placed Yang Cance on it, her back wounds facing up. Bu Li bit open the water bladder, washed his hands, and took a linen handkerchief from Cai Xiaoxian, embroidered with a cute black bear.

Preparations done, Bu Li held a sharp knife, heated it over the fire, and sprayed some old wine. A flame rose and then dimmed. Conditions were rudimentary, but it served as a disinfectant. Bu Li usually didn't drink much, but he carried some wine out of habit from his previous life as a doctor.

The knife cut open Yang Cance's back clothing, exposing the area to be disinfected. After the habitual actions, both Dahei and Hu Wu were stunned. What was Bu Li doing? Was his animal nature so strong that he would do this to a severely injured girl with a rotting back, in front of everyone?

Bu Li didn't know about Dahei and Hu Wu's dirty thoughts, but he was also taken aback. The sight of her back, once covered, now exposed, revealed a plump, firm buttock. Even in the dim light, Yang Cance's half-exposed buttock gleamed with a fine luster.
