Chapter 358: Baring It All with Si Mobai

“I’m sorry,” Feng Tianlan looked down and said . If not for her, Si Mobai would not have unsealed his powers . If things hadn’t gone south, the consequences…

Feng Tianlan dared not think about what could have been . It was something she could not bear .

“No, in a situation like that, he has to and ought to,” Si Ming quickly countered .

Feng Tianlan was puzzled by the emperor’s reply . Why did she feel as if he were taking her side? Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t the emperor punish her?

“Mobai is special . Now that his seal is broken, not only has it damaged to his health, it may attract formidable powerhouses that are much stronger than you can ever imagine . Spiritualists who want the world to themselves may attack at any moment, and that would be dangerous for both of you . From now on, you have to be careful not to let your blood touch his birthmark . Should the seal break again, forcefully close it with this talisman…”

Feng Tianlan finally understood . This seal on Si Mobai was a double edge sword, damaging both the enemy and the user when lifted . However, what role did her blood play in all this?

Si Ming refrained from speaking further . After all, this was a matter between the couple . As Si Mobai’s subordinate, he should not interfere .

“Will he be okay?” Feng Tianlan asked . She worriedly gazed at Si Mobai, who was buried in sleep .

“Other than occasional chills, he will be fine . I cannot be away from South Peace City for too long . I must be heading back . ”

Feng Tianlan nodded . Si Ming was the ruler of this continent . If people caught wind of his solo departure from South Peace City, not only would it put him in danger, but the country could be plunged into chaos .

Si Ming hesitated then told Feng Tianlan anyway, “Keep your real identity as the Lady Phoenix under wraps for the time being . You and Mobai are both endowed with special abilities . Once others hear about this, both of you will be in grave danger . ”

Before Feng Tianlan could probe any further, Si Ming was already gone . All of her questions had to be left unanswered .

Meanwhile, a ragged-looking Si Mobai was still wearing his bloodied clothes from yesterday . Feng Tianlan paused and pondered what to do . After much deliberation, she finally called in a servant to help clean up Si Mobai and change him into fresh clothes .

She left his side to stand guard at the door . A few minutes later, there was a loud thud inside the room . Feng Tianlan jolted from shock and barged back in . Terror rose in her heart as she called out, “Mobai!”

When the door flew open, she smelled blood right away . She rushed up to Si Mobai, only to see that he was still sleeping soundly . Feng Tianlan heaved a massive sigh of relief . She thought he was suffering from reversed corrosion by the broken seal .

“Miss…”

Feng Tianlan followed the weak voice and saw the servant lying prone on the floor in a pool of blood . She exclaimed, “What happened?”

“The Wargod didn’t allow me to touch him . The moment I approached him, he sent me flying with his fist . ” If he had touched the Wargod, the servant would probably be dead by now .

Even as a sick man, the demon Wargod would always be the demon Wargod .

“You should leave now . ”

The servant scampered away as if he had been excused from a much-dreaded duty . The Wargod was indeed as terrifying as the rumors made him out to be .

Feng Tianlan looked at Si Mobai’s haggard face . Memories pulled her back to that night when he had pushed her away to protect her . The walls of her guarded heart crumbled in an instant . In the end, she could not resist his sincerity and genuine heart .

She sat quietly beside him and meticulously started cleaning his hands, face, and neck with a wrung cloth . However, at his belt, her hands froze .

Clean his body and change his clothes?

Wouldn’t he need to bare it all?

Feng Tianlan withdrew her hands as a pretty pink filled her pale cheeks . She stared at the bloodstains oxidizing into filthy black on his white belt . She reached out again for the blackened belt but drew her hands back . She was torn . Should she undress him or not? Should she wipe him down or not?
