Chapter 270: The Yandere Demon Lord 24

After attacking his master and then being praised for doing a good job, Heifeng honestly had no idea how to react.

At that moment, Lin Tongyin slowly stood up while supporting himself with the Scarlet Flame Sword.

Then he said calmly:

“We should leave now.”

“Shrink your body.”

Hearing this, Heifeng immediately transformed into a small black snake before wrapping itself obediently around Lin Tongyin’s arm.

…

Outside the secret realm, Tang Wan was still patiently waiting for Lin Tongyin and Li Yan to return.

At that moment—

Li Yan finally stumbled out alone looking miserable and anxious.

The instant he saw Tang Wan, he hurried over.

“Master! This is bad!”

“Senior Brother is missing!”

Tang Wan immediately changed expression.

“What happened?” she asked anxiously.

But inwardly, she remained extremely calm.

After all, the male lead of this arc was simply going to retrieve his cheat abilities.

There was no need to panic.

Li Yan quickly explained everything that had happened before lowering his head guiltily.

“Senior Brother told me that if he didn’t return within three days, I should come out and report to Master first.”

“But I was chased by evil beasts for a long time inside…”

“It’s all my fault…”

“If something happens to Senior Brother…”

Before Li Yan could finish—

A blood-covered figure suddenly rushed out of the secret realm.

The next second—

The person collapsed heavily onto the ground.

…

The moment Lin Tongyin emerged, Tang Wan immediately sensed him.

Seeing his entire body drenched in blood, her expression instantly changed.

She rushed forward and quickly pulled him into her arms.

“Tongtong!”

Tang Wan immediately checked his pulse.

But after sensing the state of his body, her heart abruptly sank.

Over a dozen bones throughout his body were fractured.

Wasn’t he supposed to be obtaining his overpowered cheat opportunity inside?

So why was he injured this badly?

Could something unexpected have happened?

Still—

Thinking about it carefully, it wasn’t impossible.

After all, even in the original storyline, Lin Tongyin had suffered greatly within the secret realm.

Thus, Tang Wan quickly stuffed a healing pill into his mouth before turning toward Li Yan.

“Li Yan, Tongtong’s injuries are serious.”

“I’ll take him back for treatment first.”

“You return to the sect yourself on a flying sword.”

After speaking, Tang Wan immediately stepped onto her flying sword while carrying Lin Tongyin in her arms, disappearing into the sky without hesitation.

Leaving Li Yan standing alone in the wind.

Li Yan: “…”

Master…

Have you forgotten I haven’t reached Foundation Establishment yet?

I can’t fly on a sword by myself.

…

Meanwhile, seeing Tang Wan so anxious she even forgot about Li Yan entirely, Lin Tongyin felt extremely satisfied.

As expected—

In her heart, he still ranked first.

…

Ding! Lin Tongyin’s favorability +5! Current favorability: 84!

Little Cutie immediately excitedly took out a tiny handkerchief to wipe nonexistent tears.

“Congratulations, Host! The villain has finally started falling for you!”

Hearing this, Tang Wan nearly fell off the flying sword from shock.

This worked too?!

She genuinely couldn’t understand it anymore.

Still—

A favorability increase was better than a decrease.

…

After returning to the Changyun Sect, Tang Wan immediately carried Lin Tongyin straight to the Alchemy Hall.

“Senior Brother!”

“Tongtong is injured. Please help me check his condition!”

Hearing the urgency in Tang Wan’s voice, Qingfeng quickly stepped forward to examine Lin Tongyin’s injuries.

A moment later, he frowned slightly.

“He was likely struck by something extremely heavy, which caused so many fractures throughout his body.”

“He’ll need careful recovery treatment for quite some time.”

Hearing this, Lin Tongyin secretly became delighted.

That’s right.

He was very delicate right now.

Naturally, he required Master to personally take good care of him.

…

Meanwhile, Tang Wan immediately nodded anxiously.

“I understand.”

Then she suddenly looked toward Qingfeng again.

“Senior Brother… didn’t you refine a batch of Crimson Blood Pills last month?”

“My disciple is injured this badly. He definitely needs to replenish his blood and vitality.”

“Why don’t you give me one?”

The moment those words fell, Qingfeng immediately glared at her.

“Although his injuries are severe, they absolutely do not require something as precious as a Crimson Blood Pill!”

“With proper care, he’ll naturally recover after a few months.”

Hearing this, Tang Wan instantly became dissatisfied.

“A few months?”

“My disciple is so talented!”

“If his cultivation is delayed for several months, wouldn’t that waste his talent?”

Beside them, Lin Tongyin nearly failed to suppress the upward curl of his lips.

At the same time—

Ding!

Ding!

Ding! Lin Tongyin’s favorability +1… +1… +1…
