I am really not a medical immortal.-Chapter 1480 - 1479: The Deal (Sixth Update)

"Brother, as long as you agree to escort me to Ming Han Snow City, I am willing to offer one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones and ten bottles of Essence Origin Pill after the mission is accomplished!" Zi Wuling said.

"Riches are good, but I’m afraid I won’t live to enjoy them!" Zhang Xiaohao replied.

"Is your surname Xu?" Zi Wuling asked.

"I am Xu Tianxing, an ordinary loose cultivator of the Mu Ye Clan," Zhang Xiaohao said, using Xu Tianxing’s name.

As for his own name, he deliberately concealed it, fearing a full-scale manhunt in Honglan Heavenly City.

"Brother Xu, I know what you’re worried about. You’re concerned that during the crossing of the Weishui Mountain Range, my presence might be a burden to you! But there’s no need to worry! Although I’m not great in combat, I’m skilled in concealment! Don’t laugh, brother, my innate divine ability is concealment! Once I activate this ability, not even Golden Core Realm cultivators can detect my presence unless I appear right in front of them," Zi Wuling confidently said.

"Is that so?" Zhang Xiaohao replied with a playful smile.

"Brother Xu doesn’t believe me? Let me demonstrate right now to dispel your concerns!" Zi Wuling offered.

Right then, her dark green eyes turned, and patterns of dark green leaves appeared on her skin, dispersing from her body like flying birds and swimming fish, forming a strange symbol above her head, which then merged into her body.

"Brother Xu, why don’t you try using your divine thought to see if you can detect my existence," Zi Wuling confidently said.

"Alright," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

His divine thought swept out, covering a thousand kilometers around.

Under the perception of his divine thought, the surroundings seemed empty, with no one present but himself.

"Could her innate divine ability really be that powerful?" Zhang Xiaohao thought with doubt.

Silently, he activated the Three Pure Ones Scripture, and a mysterious force appeared within his divine thought, sweeping across the surroundings.

Under the inspection of his divine thought, a faint presence appeared before him.

"It seems that the innate divine abilities of the Mu Ye Clan are indeed remarkable! Without the Three Pure Ones Scripture, discovering her existence would be exceptionally difficult!" Zhang Xiaohao thought to himself.

"Brother Xu, are you reassured now? As long as you escort me safely back to Ming Han Snow City, I promise to give you one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones and ten bottles of Essence Origin Pill! Even Golden Core Realm cultivators don’t have such wealth! Moreover, the Essence Origin Pill greatly benefits Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators, each pill can save them ten days to half a month of arduous practice!" Zi Wuling said.

She believed that no one could resist such generous conditions.

"Alright! In consideration of Miss Zi’s pure-heartedness, I agree! But let me be clear, if we encounter any formidable beings along the way, my own safety will be my primary concern!" Zhang Xiaohao replied.

"That’s only natural!" Zi Wuling said.

"Well then, let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

Having said that, he walked forward.

"Ah! Brother Xu, may I make an unreasonable request?" Zi Wuling asked, her face blushing.

"What is it?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"I was bitten by a strange plant during the battle earlier, and the toxin is spreading now. I’m completely powerless, let alone being able to move. Brother Xu, could you carry me?" Zi Wuling asked, her face turning red.

"That’s a bit difficult! If your injury isn’t dealt with quickly and we encounter powerful beasts, I wouldn’t be able to protect you! Why don’t I help you detoxify directly?" Zhang Xiaohao pondered for a moment before he spoke.

"Brother Xu, this—this isn’t appropriate!" Zi Wuling’s exquisite face turned a deep red, like a ripe apple.

"What’s the matter? Where is your wound?" Zhang Xiaohao curiously asked.

"It’s—it’s on my thigh!" Zi Wuling weakly replied.

"Ah, I see! That’s indeed a bit tricky! But, as cultivators, we focus on the path of cultivation, regarding gender differences as fleeting! If Miss Zi wishes to return to Ming Han Snow City soon, or to avoid unexpected incidents, why not let me take a look at your injury? Rest assured, my character is impeccable!" Zhang Xiaohao seriously said.

"Well then, sorry to trouble Brother Xu! But here in the wilderness, if you treat my injury and a beast appears, wouldn’t we be in danger?" Zi Wuling hesitantly voiced her concern.

"Hmm, that’s true! How about this? I’ll take you to a safer place first and then treat your injury!" Zhang Xiaohao deliberated for a moment before speaking.

"Everything is in Brother Xu’s hands!" Zi Wuling blushingly replied.

"Since I’ve promised to escort you to Ming Han Snow City, it’s my duty." Zhang Xiaohao earnestly said.

He went over to Zi Wuling, holding her left hand, feeling a warmth and catching a faint scent of a young girl, stirring something within him.

It had been a long time since he’d experienced such closeness, and his body instinctively reacted, but he masked it well.

Cradling her in a princess carry, a supple resilience touched his heart.

"Bear with it a little. I’ll find a safe place for you and then treat your injury!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Leave it all to Brother Xu!" Zi Wuling shyly nodded.

Without further delay, Zhang Xiaohao leapt forward, bounding several zhang, his figure disappearing in a few flashes.

Half an hour later.

Zhang Xiaohao returned with Zi Wuling to the cave where he had been meditating in seclusion before.

"Ah! Brother Xu, how did you know about this place?" Zi Wuling asked.

"Truth be told, I was previously in seclusion here, and just upon coming out, I encountered you, so I rushed over!" Zhang Xiaohao explained.

With a motion of his hands, ten formations around them activated, concealing their surroundings. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Zhang Xiaohao grabbed from the Shennong Ring ten luminous pearls, embedding them on the cave walls, instantly brightening the once dark cave.

Then, Zhang Xiaohao pulled out a three-zhang-long tiger skin and spread it on the ground.
