Chapter 106 I found a big orange cat, and it even has stripes! (2/2)

He suddenly turned around, stretched out his long arm, and pulled her tightly into his arms, with such force that it felt as if he wanted to knead her into his very bones.

"What's wrong?"

His voice was taut and strained, his large hand pressed firmly against her back, all the muscles in his body tensed up, and the temperature of the surrounding air dropped sharply.

Ruan Tang didn't speak, she just stared blankly at the scene.

The warm current wasn't spiritual energy, but it was very comfortable, like soaking in a hot spring on a winter's day, its warmth seeping into every corner of the body.

She quickly focused her mind and scanned her body.

There are no problems with the meridians and spiritual energy.

But when her divine sense probed into her dantian, she was stunned.

Inside his dantian, the waka tree sapling that had been somewhat wilted was now stretching out every leaf, its whole body radiating a joyful green light.

That feeling of comfort was like someone who hadn't eaten for eight hundred years finally devouring a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.

Immediately afterward, under Ruan Tang's "gaze," the tenderest leaf at the top of the Ruomu tree squeezed out a bright, green droplet.

"Clatter."

The droplet fell into the spiritual field below the dantian.

The area around the spirit field had visibly become much more fertile.

Ruan Tang circled around in her body several times. Besides feeling that her soul was enveloped in a warm golden light and became more solid, she also noticed the extra drop of life source in her spiritual field.

A thought exploded in her mind without warning.

The power of merit?

Was saving that little tiger a blessing from God?

"Tangtang?"

Seeing that she didn't react for a long time, Yan Yu tightened his grip on her waist, his voice filled with barely suppressed anxiety and a hint of fear that he himself didn't realize.

Ruan Tang finally came to her senses.

She tilted her head up to meet his dark eyes filled with worry, shook her head, and explained in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother, I'm fine."

She quickly sorted out her thoughts and briefly described the feeling she had just experienced and the changes in her dantian.

"It felt like a golden light fell on me, and then Ruomu... was very happy and gave me a drop of life source."

Upon hearing this, Yan Yu's brows furrowed deeply.

Without saying a word, his immense spiritual power surged forth, transforming into countless invisible threads that domineeringly and meticulously examined every strand of Ruan Tang's hair from head to toe.

He had to confirm with his own hands that she hadn't left any variables he didn't understand.

A few seconds later, he confirmed that the little girl was in perfect health and that the so-called "golden light" was not only harmless but also beneficial to her soul. Only then did he feel relieved.

"It's good that you're alright."

He lowered his head, gently pressing his forehead against hers, his hot breath spraying onto her face, the darkness in his eyes transforming into a tenderness that could drown a person.

"That's a good thing."

Whatever it is, as long as it's good for his little girl, that's a great thing.

Just as the two were relieved and preparing to head home, they heard a commotion coming from the other end of the village. It was noisy and chaotic, as if most of the villagers had gathered together.

The noise seemed to be coming from the home of Captain Chen Fengshan.

Ruan Tang curiously tiptoed and peeked over there: "Why is the brigade leader's house so lively?"

Yan Yu didn't even glance in that direction, only looking down at his little girl and casually tidying up her wind-blown hair.

"His second son, Chen Baoguo, who was serving in the army, has returned."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Tang recalled the military boot footprints on the mountain and suddenly realized: "That was the soldier who passed by?"

Yan Yu hummed in agreement, tightened his grip on her hand, and spoke in a calm tone as if he were talking about something trivial.

"Yes, let's go home."

"Okay." This chapter has been finished. (Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
