Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 322: Silence is Deafening
Chapter 322: Chapter 322: Silence is Deafening
He hesitated immediately.
But after much contemplation, he realized that he had no other options.
Because among the people he knew, besides Ye Wudi, who could confidently defeat two Sixth Grade Spirit Masters, he couldn’t think of anyone else who could help.
Sixth Grade Spirit Masters were rare commodities, not so easily found.
Even in the vast and talented Longxia Federation was it so.
Hose noticed Xiao Zhan’s dilemma and straightforwardly pointed out the critical issue, "At this point, there are only two outcomes, either they die or we die."
"I know."
Xiao Zhan stopped him from continuing.
"I understand, there’s no need for further explanation."
Xiao Zhan’s face turned solemn; he was well aware of the potential outcome of this matter. His hesitation was merely a matter of not being able to psychologically come to terms with it.
He gestured for them to leave with a wave of his hand.
He was somewhat irritated.
Seeing this, Hose also shut his mouth and respectfully exited the room with Ghost Abacus.
He believed that Xiao Zhan would make the right choice.
After they left.
The atmosphere in the room became somewhat quiet.
Ye Youlong said, "If you can’t bear it, just leave it to me when the time comes, just like last time."
Last time, it was when Long Jiang threatened Xiao Zhan using hostages.
During that incident, Xiao Zhan was also reluctant to make a decision. At the critical moment, it was Ye Youlong who took control, possessing Xiao Zhan’s body, thus averting the danger.
This indeed was a good solution that might lessen Xiao Zhan’s guilt.
But he didn’t want to use this method, knowing that to become a true strong person, he must go through these psychologically contrary experiences.
If every time he relied on Ye Youlong in such situations, his willpower would never grow.
What would he do when the time came that he couldn’t rely on Ye Youlong?
So, he shook his head, a flicker of determination in his eyes, "Sooner or later I’ll have to face it. It’s better to face it sooner rather than later, otherwise, if something regrettable happens it would truly be too late."
Ye Youlong didn’t say much; she knew that Xiao Zhan needed to take this step.
Compared to her background, accustomed to brutal struggles, Xiao Zhan obviously needed more growth.
Just then.
A servant came from outside, reporting that Han Dingxiang had arrived.
At the mention of this name, Xiao Zhan’s face immediately assumed a grave expression.
He looked at Ye Youlong, thinking of the time before he passed out when Ye Youlong had almost killed Han Dingxiang.
He knew the reason behind it; Ye Youlong wasn’t the type to repay kindness with enmity, it was just that Han Dingxiang’s actions had challenged her sense of cleanliness.
Obsessive-compulsiveness is an illness, morbid jealousy is a disease, none of which can be shifted by human will.
Ye Youlong couldn’t control herself.
He looked towards Ye Youlong, and she was also looking back at Xiao Zhan, but her eyes revealed indifference. Clearly, the person Han Dingxiang had already seriously displeased her.
The fact that she hadn’t killed her immediately upon awakening was already her greatest act of forbearance.
Now, she dared to show up.
Ye Youlong’s expression was truly cold to the extreme.
Out of consideration for her feelings and to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xiao Zhan then spoke to the servant, "Tell her, I’m not yet recovered from my injuries, it’s not convenient."
After speaking, he looked at Ye Youlong.
Indeed, he found that her mood had slightly improved.
"Yes," answered the servant at the door.
He then went to pass on the message.
However, after a short while, the servant came back again and brought something to Xiao Zhan.
"Young Master, Miss Han Dingxiang has already left, and she asked me to give this to you."
Xiao Zhan took the item and was instantly surprised.
"It’s actually a Sixth Grade Holy Medicine! Ten Thousand Spirit Returning Essence!"
Sixth Grade Holy Medicine, that is absolutely a rare treasure, even scarcer than a Sixth Grade Spirit Master in this world, truly a rarity that one can only hope to encounter.
At their Ye Family, there were only one or two plants of Sixth Grade Holy Medicine, remnants from Ye Wuming’s time.
Unless it was a special occasion, they were truly unwilling to use them.
Han Dingxiang actually offered such a treasure right off the bat; Xiao Zhan was utterly dumbfounded, not knowing what to say for a moment.
At this time, Ye Youlong said, "Sixth Grade Holy Medicine, even our Second Uncle might not bring it out, probably the only one the Han Family has. Yet she gave it to you so easily, her affection for you really is deep."
Xiao Zhan did not detect any jealousy in her tone, but rather, he sensed a heavy intent to kill.
Ye Youlong never gets jealous, because jealousy presupposes the other person is alive, and Ye Youlong clearly won’t let that happen!
Faced with this situation, Xiao Zhan could only offer a wry smile, "Wife, you saw it all, every action of mine was under your supervision, I didn’t have any lingering attachment towards her."
"I’m not blaming you, so why are you panicking?" Ye Youlong retorted.
She obviously knew that Xiao Zhan hadn’t done anything to wrong her; otherwise, she wouldn’t be so calm now.
Xiao Zhan suddenly felt a bit awkward.
Without Ye Youlong saying it, he had no issue at all. But once she mentioned it, Xiao Zhan felt even guilty.
"Then, I’ll just give it back to her."
Although the Sixth Grade Holy Medicine was valuable, even if Xiao Zhan was healthy, consuming it could greatly enhance his strength qualitatively.
But given the current situation, clearly, his wife’s mood was more important.
However, Ye Youlong stopped him, "Why send it back? What does the issue with people have to do with the thing? This Sixth Grade Holy Medicine is rare, consuming it will greatly benefit you."
People are people, things are things, you say Ye Youlong is ’yandere’, yet she can tolerate such an idea.
For others, they would necessarily refuse the object.
It really is strange.
But listening to her, the focus for Xiao Zhan wasn’t there, rather his expression turned weird as he looked towards Ye Youlong.
"So you think I’m still frail?"
Ye Youlong glanced at his upper body, but didn’t speak.
But that look clearly said it all.
At that moment, the silence was deafening.
Xiao Zhan’s expression immediately became awkward, wanting to argue, yet not knowing what to argue with, he could only forcibly maintain face, trying to show some manly pride.
However, Ye Youlong’s indifferent gaze easily shattered his male dignity.
Xiao Zhan felt extremely awkward, like a groundhog with nowhere to hide.
Suddenly, he looked at the Sixth Grade Holy Medicine, the Ten Thousand Spirit Returning Essence, on the table.
An idea sparked in his mind, and suddenly he grabbed the Holy Medicine and swallowed it down in a few bites!
Immediately, he felt a surging power filling his body.
"Are you crazy? The Ten Thousand Spirit Returning Essence isn’t meant to be consumed like this!" Ye Youlong exclaimed as she saw this scene.
