Chapter 372: The Youth is Innocent, but He is Guilty of Possessing a Treasure
Shi Li stood ten feet away, looking at the young man leaning against the earth wall with a little confusion.
The mottled walls blocked the sunlight and hid him in shadow. His head was slightly lowered, his hair blocking his eyes, so the expression on his face could not be seen clearly.
He was wearing a gray, old suit with bloodstains on his chest. He looked as disheveled as could be.
Shi Li inexplicably wanted to get closer.
Maybe it's out of pity, she thought.
So he walked forward a few steps and felt a faint fluctuation of spiritual power from the young man.
As she approached, the boy slowly raised his head, revealing a gloomy face.
Half of his face was covered with hideous wounds, and his pair of brown eyes were like silent dead water, without causing the slightest ripple.
Shi Li was caught off guard and looked at him, stunned.
Unexpectedly, the boy looked away first, as if she didn't exist.
Shi Li almost laughed out of anger.
So does barrage.
[What the hell is this? How can he look down on the anchor? ? ? ]
[I’m angry! I can bully the anchor, but I won’t be happy if someone rolls their eyes at her!]
[Me too, me too! The anchor is my daughter! ]
Looking at the screen full of indecent comments, Shi Li remained silent, took another step forward, and came directly in front of the boy.
She felt a strong, gray, deathly aura emanating from the young man.
He couldn't help but open his spiritual sense and secretly took a look at the young man's spirit platform.
You only suffered some minor injuries, why do you want to give up?
Shi Li was actually a soft-hearted girl. She frowned immediately and stretched out a hand to the boy without any concern.
"Do you want to come with me? I can protect you and prevent you from being bullied."
After saying that, she waited quietly for his answer.
The boy was silent and didn't even look at her.
Shi Li didn't seem to be in a hurry at all and waited patiently.
Anyway, she is a powerful Yuanying cultivator, so she won’t get tired even if she stretches her hands for a while longer.
The two of them remained in a silent stalemate for so long that the wind around them stopped.
[Anchor, let's go! Leave him alone! ]
[Anchor, please go away. Instead of raising this thing, you might as well go back and entertain your brother. At least it looks cute~]
[Anchor, I'll give you a yacht, let's go.]
Shi Li was unmoved...or really, seeing someone wanting to paint a yacht, she was still a little tempted.
But inexplicably, I couldn't let go of the boy in front of me.
She had a strange feeling in her heart that if she really left today, she would definitely regret it.
Looking at the boy who was as motionless as a stone sculpture, Shi Li pursed her lips and said, "Everything I said is true. If I lied to you, you can leave at any time."
After saying this, Shi Li waited patiently for a long time, and the boy finally moved.
He turned his head slowly and looked at Shi Li indifferently, "Are you sure you want to take me away?"
"Of course! What I said absolutely counts!" Shi Li smiled brightly when she saw hope.
The girl's smile is like a flower and the moon, bathed in the gentle sunshine, and she is as beautiful as a painting.
The boy blinked slowly, finally stood up, and subconsciously raised his hand.
Noticing the mottled scars and stains on his hands, he lowered his hands silently.
Shi Li pretended not to see it and tilted her head to look at him happily, "You call me Shi Li. I am a Nascent Soul expert at a young age, so I can definitely protect you."
[…Although this is the truth, the host now looks like Lao Wang who sells melons~]
[Is it okay to praise yourself? 】
[Don't be like this, the salted fish anchor has finally turned over and is no longer a eunuch, just let her brag for a while. ]
Shi Li didn't want to even glance at the commentator who always exposed his shortcomings, and looked at the boy with a friendly face, "So, what's your name?"
This seemed like a difficult question to answer for the teenager.
He looked at Shi Li for a long time, then lowered his head and answered in a hoarse voice, "Wuming."
Shi Li: ...
Very good, this is still a boy with a story.
Shi Li did not force any further questions, but nodded cooperatively, "Okay, Wuming, let's go."
She deliberately walked in front and let the boy follow behind.
By doing this, even if the boy showed an expression of unbearable or painful pain due to the injuries on his body, she would not see it, thus preserving the boy's self-esteem well.
They came to the best inn in the town.
"I've come a long way, so I need to rest here for a few days. You can have fun by yourself first."
After booking two rooms, Shi Li said to Wuming in a serious tone.
But everyone can see that compared to her who is full of energy and vigor, Wuming is the one who needs to rest.
Wuming lowered his head, making it difficult to see the expression on his face, and only replied in a low voice: "Okay."
The next day, Shi Li saw the boy who looked completely changed.
Although the scars on his face were still there, he looked much better after changing into clean clothes and taking a shower.
Shi Li blinked and decided to take him out to buy new clothes.
"Come clothes shopping with me!" she said.
Passing by the first floor of the inn, I heard two passers-by mention a familiar name.
"Jun Beiyu won first place in this competition. He is worthy of being the son of the sect master!"
