3388 She Had Arrived

Jun Jueshang averted his sight as he clenched his fist and coughed softly into it, then he continued, “I’ve not completely recovered and need someone by my side. Since you said you wanted to repay that year’s kindness, why not stay and care for me for a few days until I’m better?”

Wanyan Qianhua’s eyes flickered as she heard his words. An odd thought struck her mind, and her gaze rested on his face, examining him as she pondered the meaning of his words.

After a while, she replied indifferently, “I will make time to come and check on your condition, but I won’t stay here to personally take care of you.” She turned and began to walk away, not looking back as she added, “You are the Sect Master. Finding someone to look after you should be simple. Your sect’s elders are waiting outside.”

Jun Jueshang looked up as her voice fade away. He was disappointed as he watched her walk away. He remained still, as the emotions in his heart left him feeling confused.

On the one hand, he didn’t want anything to do with her or to be close to her. But when he woke up and found out that she had been feeding him spirit herbs and taking care of him for the past few days, his heart couldn’t help but flutter.

His inner demons had turned into a disease. This inner demon came into being because she was in his heart. If she hadn’t been in his heart, he could have been free of desires and wouldn’t have been tormented by the demon.

But because he had never been in love, he was in turmoil right now. His emotions were a muddled mass that he couldn’t make sense of. And he couldn’t think of anything to do.

Wanyan Qianhua left, but his words just now rang in her ears, causing her to snort coldly in her heart. What did he think of her? Did he think he could send her away or stay as he pleased? Was she, Wanyan Qianhua, someone who would come and go at his beck and call?

Her beautiful eyes narrowed, her lips pursed, and anger surged in her heart. It was good that he came to. Given his current condition, she could take action tomorrow. She wanted to see, after she forced herself on him, whether he could still keep that aloof face of his when looking at her.

It must be said, at this moment, she yearned to tear off the aloof and indifferent mask of an immortal. She wanted to see his perfect mask crack, to glimpse the expression that lay beneath. She wondered if he, too, would lose control and become completely frustrated.

A day went by like this. The following evening, after Wanyan Qianhua had finished her tasks and felt she could leave the sect, she took a bath and proceeded to the courtyard where Jun Jueshang lived.

Since she was planning to force herself on him, she naturally couldn’t wait until he was fully recovered. Once he was fully healed, it would be harder for her to do it. But he was awake now, and his body was slowly healing after a few days of treatment. At the very least, well, the situation she worried about — wanting to act but not having the strength to — wouldn’t happen.

Jun Jueshang is in the room, resting on the bed with his eyes closed. A middle-aged man stood by the bedside, asking about his health and whether they should invite a pharmacist to check on him.

The man had been speaking for some time but had received any response from the Sect Master. Just when he was wondering whether to repeat his question, Jun Jueshang opened his eyes, his gaze directed towards the doorway.

“Sect Master, what’s wrong?” The middle-aged man asked, also looking at the doorway. Seeing that there was no one there, he said, “Miss Wanyan hasn’t arrived yet.” In fact, he was doubtful that Wanyan Qianhua would still come now that the Sect Master was awake.

“You may leave.” Jun Jueshang said, slowly closing his eyes.

He knew she had arrived.
