The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife

Duan Ming noticed Xi Yue right away. The memory of how decisively and ruthlessly she dealt with Chen Jian came to mind, along with how excited Jin Zeyu and the others were when they mentioned her. Unable to shake his curiosity, he hesitated for a moment before finally walking over.

“Hi! Are you the nineteen-year-old Divine Doctor Xi Yue?”

Xi Yue glanced at Duan Ming in surprise. “What’s up?”

Scratching his head awkwardly, Duan Ming let out a chuckle. “Oh, it’s nothing. I just happened to see you beat up Chen Jian back then—you were incredible! So, uh, you’re from the medical academy, right? What brings you to the Martial Arts Department?”

Xi Yue thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “I’m looking for Jin Zeyu.”

“So you really do know Mr. Jin!” Duan Ming grinned. “I knew it. Mr. Jin and the others were so excited when they heard your name that day, I figured you must know each other. Come with me; at this time, Mr. Jin is probably still in the mystical realm!”

“Mystical realm?”

“Exactly! It’s a special training ground for our Martial Arts Department. Let me tell you, Mr. Jin and the others are total training fanatics. They spend practically all 12 hours of the day in there, only coming out to eat and sleep.”

Xi Yue frowned, “Every day?”

Xi Yue looked slightly dazed and didn’t say a word for a long time.

The two soon arrived at the mystical realm. Jin Zeyu, Qian Dazhuang, Chen Xiaofeng, and others had come out of the mystical realm and were sitting cross-legged in meditation.

When Xi Yue entered, she saw Jin Zeyu standing up again, a longsword materializing in his hand as he gave it a casual swing. “I’m heading back in for another hour,” he said calmly. “If you can’t handle it, feel free to head back first.”

“I’ll follow you in.”

“I’ll go in too!”

Jin Zeyu was about to enter the mystical realm when someone grabbed his shoulder.

His face darkened, and he turned around. When he saw that it was Xi Yue, he immediately smiled happily and said, “What brings you here, Xi Yue?”

Xi Yue frowned and grabbed his hand without saying a word.

Gentle water spiritual power flowed through his meridians, carefully soothing his body. A deep, angry voice echoed, “Your body belongs to you. If you don’t take care of it, one day it’s going to completely give out.”

“After cultivating for so many years, don’t you know that haste makes waste? Such a reckless, overdrawn cultivation approach might boost your strength quickly, but it also invites inner demons. Your physical body won’t be able to keep up with the rapid growth of spiritual power, and it’ll only lead to irreversible damage.”

Jin Zeyu lowered his head in shame, struggling to find the words as the silence stretched between them.

After a long time, he muttered, “Xi Yue, I heard that doctors can form Shadow Protector contracts, but it’s something only cultivators can do. I want to become your Shadow Protector. I want the strength to truly protect you.”

Xi Yue paused for a moment, then let out a soft sigh. “If you want to keep living, keep growing stronger, and stay by my side, then you need to take care of yourself. You will always have a place to be my Shadow Protector.”

Jin Zeyu’s face suddenly burst into a happy smile.
