Martial Peak

Chapter 4694

“I’ve applied some medicine and dressed up her wound. It seems that she’s a cultivator, so as long as she has enough time to recuperate, she’ll be fine,” the woman said.

“Many thanks, Madame!” Zhao Ye Bai cupped his fist as he was evidently relieved.

The woman examined his face for a moment before pretending to be nonchalant as she asked, “You are Brother and Sister? You don’t look alike.”

Zhao Ye Bai replied, “Xiao Ya and I are not biological siblings; however, since we grew up together, we’re just as close as the real Brother and Sister.”

The woman’s eyelashes fluttered as she looked down at Zhao Ya, “Did you offend someone?”

Zhao Ye Bai shook his head, “I have no idea. The reason Xiao Ya and I arrived at this place was to look for a family member, but it was to no avail. When we were about to go back, we came across a formidable enemy. Xiao Ya was hurt because she wanted to save me.”

The woman nodded, “In that case, we can’t stay here any longer. Who knows where the attacker is hiding? Your Sister is now wounded, so she’ll be in danger if that person finds her.”

Zhao Ye Bai replied, “I’ll bring her back to Green Mountain Town now.”

“Green Mountain Town is several dozen kilometres away from here. What if her wound exacerbates during the long journey? If you don’t mind, you can stay at my home for some time. My house is just at the bottom of the mountain, which is not far away from here.”

Zhao Ye Bai appeared to be hesitant and asked, “Will it cause you any trouble?”

He was worried that the enemy might retaliate against them and barge into the woman’s house.

The woman put on a smile, “Don’t worry. To be honest with you, my Son is a disciple from Spirit Sea Temple, and he’s a pretty successful cultivator now. That person would never dare to make a scene in my house.”

Zhao Ye Bai became startled for a moment, “Are you a family member of the Village Chief, Madame?”

She just said that her house was at the bottom of the mountain, which would put it in the village they had visited earlier. There was no way there were two people who were the disciples of Spirit Sea Temple in such a tiny village. If Zhao Ye Bai wasn’t mistaken, the woman should be the Village Chief’s Wife.

As expected, the woman nodded, “That’s right.”

Zhao Ye Bai rose from the chair and cupped his fist, “Many thanks for your righteousness, Madame. I, Zhao Ye Bai, am truly grateful.”

“Don’t be overly polite with me. I have a Daughter who is about the same age as her. If you don’t mind it, you can call me Aunty Mei.”

Zhao Ye Bai nodded and obediently called her Aunty Mei.

It was then that the woman smiled and nodded before she got up, “It’s getting late now. We should be on our way.”
