Xiao Nuo giggled and held Xiyue's hand tightly, refusing to let go.

At this moment, she looked like a kitten whose fur had been stroked, extremely happy and cheerful. She didn't look dignified and steady in front of others at all.

Xiao Nuo is really happy.

Seeing how the three naval medical class members respected Xi Yue and how close Xi Yue was to them, as well as how they all called Xi Yue teacher, Xiao Nuo felt a little sour in her heart.

Because she felt that her master had been taken away by someone.

But now Xi Yue said with her own mouth that she was her only apprentice, how could she not be happy

After chatting and laughing with Xiao Nuo for a while, Xi Yue let Xiao Nuo go out first.

The room was silent, with only the sleeping Xuan Mu and Xi Yue standing beside the bed.

But Xi Yue suddenly said to Xuan Mu, who had his eyes tightly closed, "How long do you want to pretend to be asleep?"

The person on the bed still had his eyes closed and his breathing was shallow, as if he had not woken up at all.

There were many times during these days of treatment that were extremely painful, especially the medicinal baths and acupuncture.

But Xuan Mu never woke up once, and even his sleepy expression did not change.

At first Xi Yue really thought he was unconscious, but later she slowly discovered that Xuan Mu was not unconscious, but he was unwilling to wake up.

His body was badly injured, but not as badly as his mind.

At this moment, Xuan Mu had almost no will to live, and if this continued, even if Xi Yue's medical skills were extraordinary, she would not be able to save a person who was determined to die.

Xi Yue sighed softly and said, "The Xuan Mu I know is a man with a cold temperament but a man of integrity, a roommate with whom I don't communicate much but with whom I have a tacit understanding, a close friend who has helped and saved me many times but never complained about our grudges, a strong man who never backs down no matter if he is injured or in trouble, and not a coward who only knows how to escape."

The man on the bed's eyelashes trembled, and he finally slowly opened his eyes.

The pair of eyes that used to be calm and composed were now cold, not because of firmness or persistence, but because they were as still and tranquil as dead water.

He said, "Xiyue, you shouldn't have saved me."

Xi Yue frowned, sat down beside the bed, and said angrily: "Why? Is it just because of the lost cultivation? As long as you are alive, your cultivation will return one day, right?"

Xuan Mu looked calm and said in a low voice, "Because I don't want to betray you, but I don't want to betray my master either."

There were two layers of meaning in his words, but Xi Yue didn't hear them, so she just said angrily: "He has hurt you to such an extent, and you still treat him as your master?!"

Xuan Mu smiled slightly, his smile was very calm, yet very resolute, "For me, there is only one master in this life, and this will not change even if I die. What's more, I was the one who betrayed the master first, and I deserve the punishment."

Xi Yue was stunned and speechless for a moment.

Xuan Mu closed his eyes and looked up at the ceiling. His expression became distant and vicissitudes. "Xi Yue, do you know? Before I met you, I hated and even hated humans."

"I was born in another continent, a low-level plane like Miluo. A long, long time ago, that world was ruled by a dynasty where the strong preyed on the weak and slavery was practiced. My family was originally aristocratic in that dynasty, but because my father offended the emperor at the time, our entire family was confiscated and I became a slave." (To be continued)
