Shen Tang first led Lu Xiao to the nearby river to clean his wounds, preventing further infection, then had him transform back into his beast form to better examine the finer wounds.
When Lu Xiao transformed into his true form, Shen Tang gasped. Up close, the injuries were far more severe than imagined — large patches of feathers had been violently torn away, exposing bloody flesh, with some wounds so deep the bone was visible.
What worried her most was that several areas of the skin had completely ripped open, and without timely treatment, these places might never grow feathers again.
He could still muster the strength to comfort her, smiling and coaxing her, showing no sign of discomfort throughout. If it were Xiao Jin and Jia Lan, they would have long been crying out for comfort.
This guy really is...
Shen Tang sighed lightly, her palm emitting a glowing green light, and the gentle healing energy swept across Lu Xiao’s body like a spring breeze.
At the hideous wound sites, fresh blood and flesh grew and healed at a visibly rapid pace, and at the broken feather roots, fine down feathers sprouted, soft as newborn chicks.
Her fingertips slowly glided along his wings, and when they touched the sensitive wing base, she clearly felt his muscles tense up instantly, even the feathers trembled slightly.
The healing had just ended, and before Shen Tang could pull away, Lu Xiao suddenly transformed into human form and pounced her onto the grass.
His hot lips pressed down without any hesitation, this kiss carrying long-suppressed desire, feverish yet tender.
The broad palm tightly clasped her waist, the scorching temperature penetrating through the fabric.
"Stop~ There are still people outside!" Shen Tang blushingly pushed him away, "The Sky King and others are still waiting... and this stone is making my back hurt..."
Lu Xiao chuckled softly, he never truly intended to do anything, just couldn’t help himself. After kissing her lips a few more times reluctantly, he then helped her up with some reluctance, carefully brushing off the grass from her clothes.
"Let’s go." He took her hand, "If we delay any longer, the trial ground will close."
The two caught up with the group and left the trial ground.
Outside the trial ground, Xiao Jin was already waiting anxiously.
Seeing the Sky King and others had already come out, yet there was no sign of the two, he anxiously paced around.
Just as the mist was about to close, two familiar figures finally appeared.
Xiao Jin sprinted forward, "Are you okay? I was worried sick!"
Shen Tang briefly recounted their encounter in the secret realm, "A false alarm, nothing serious."
"That damn Eldest Prince, utterly despicable!" Xiao Jin gritted his teeth in anger.
Shen Tang hurriedly covered his mouth, luckily most of the beastmen had left, and probably no one heard, "This is someone else’s territory, keep it down."
"Hmph, they reap what they sow, can’t even bear a few curses!" Xiao Jin turned his head towards Lu Xiao.
When he felt the powerful aura emanating from Lu Xiao, his eyes widened instantly, "Wait... you’ve broken through to the Tenth Rank?!"
