Chapter 310 Curing the Illness, Temporarily Resolving the Crisis, but Hidden Dangers Remain

After Xiao Yun finished speaking, the atmosphere fell into silence.

The only sound in the room was Eric's heavy, labored breathing, which was deafening.

"You—you—"

Eric stared intently at Xiao Yun, his eyes bloodshot, like a suffocating fish.

His overwhelming emotions made it difficult for him to control his power; the aura of a seventh-order professional spread out, suffocating everyone.

Beside him, Hughes lowered his head, his legs trembling slightly, his whole body soaked in sweat, and he almost cried.

He was overjoyed just moments ago, but now he only regrets getting involved in this mess.

Regardless of whether the pretty boy on the other side is real or not, judging from Eric's reaction, the "deathly entanglement" thing is most likely true.

Eric was inherently suspicious, and in order to hide his illness, he even only had one-time sexual partners.

Now that he's found out by accident, he's really asking for trouble!

Sure enough, the next second, a murderous intent surged from Eric, chilling to the bone.

Hughes' legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground, his pants soaked.

But in the next second, the killing intent receded like the tide.

The last trace of surprise and uncertainty in Eric's eyes disappeared. He looked at Xiao Yun, and the corners of his mouth slowly turned up: "So you are the scholar from Wuyou Township. Your subordinates are tactless and have offended us."

He sighed and warmly pulled Xiao Yun to sit down on the sofa, personally pouring her a glass of red wine.

"Thank you, but I don't like drinking."

Xiao Yun waved his hand, not taking it.

Eric paused for a moment, but wasn't annoyed. He simply looked at Hughes and said coldly, "You blind fool! What are you standing there for? Go make tea for Scholar Gu!"

Hughes felt like he had been granted a pardon and scrambled to the break room.

Only Xiao Yun and Eric remained in the room. The latter seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled at Xiao Yun.

Eric had just opened his mouth, wanting to chat and try to build rapport, when Xiao Yun interrupted him: "Alright, Commander Eric, there are no outsiders here, let's get straight to the point."

Xiao Yun looked directly into his glasses and said slowly, "I will help you with the treatment. In return, you need to guarantee my freedom and prepare ships and supplies for my upcoming explorations."

"Of course, the resources you provide will be repaid by Worry-Free Land after I return. This is our code of conduct."

Eric's expression shifted slightly. After a moment of silence, he became even more convinced of Xiao Yun's identity.

"This condescending, almost almsgiving trading style is really in line with that guild's style —"

He muttered to himself, then looked at Xiao Yun, his smile growing even brighter: "No problem. It's my honor to be able to help Wuyou Township."

He paused, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and said meaningfully, "However, my condition is quite serious, and even if I wanted to provide high-quality resources for Scholar Gu, I am powerless to do so."

The meaning of this sentence is very clear.

To get what you want, you must first cure your illness!

Xiao Yun smiled faintly and said, "No problem, I can treat you now."

"Now!"

Eric was overjoyed and jumped to his feet: "I'll get someone to prepare a sterile room and all sorts of medical equipment right now."

"There's no need for that."

Xiao Yun pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit down, it'll be quick."

A hint of suspicion flashed in Eric's eyes. He frowned, remained silent for a moment, and then sat back down on the sofa.

He gave Xiao Yun a deep look, then suddenly picked up the wine glass next to him and drank it all in one gulp.

"Scholar Gu, although I am eager to survive, I am not easily fooled."

"To be honest, everyone here is a bunch of peasants. Apart from me, no one knows anything about this carefree land. If I die—"

Xiao Yun instantly understood his meaning and chuckled, "Don't worry, in my hands, it'll be hard for you to die even if you want to."

As he spoke, a faint crimson-gold glint appeared in his eyes.

Eric's pupils constricted sharply, and he nearly jumped up like a cat with its fur standing on end.

"Don't move! Take a deep breath, it's normal to feel a little pain!"

Xiao Yun gave a cold shout, cut his finger, and used his blood to draw the [Fire Blood Pact] rune on Eric's head.

Eric froze, staring intently at Xiao Yun, ready to strike at any moment.

Just then, a warm current flowed from the rune on his forehead, flowing into the body of the man who was dying.

The warm current mingled with the blood, and the temperature suddenly rose.

It felt like flames were surging through his body; Eric felt like his whole body was on fire.

"what!"

He let out a scream, and was about to get angry when he suddenly froze on the spot.

Inside his body, the cold shadow of death retreated under the flowing fire, as if it had encountered a natural enemy.

The long-lost vitality reappeared in my body.

Eric was so excited he almost cried.

"It works! It works!"

Ignoring the excruciating pain inside his body, he danced and jumped around like a madman.

"Oh! My dear Scholar Gu, you are truly an angel sent by God to save me!"

He opened his arms wide, wanting to hug Xiao Yun.

A flash of disgust crossed Xiao Yun's eyes. He took a step back and said calmly, "It's my duty. Commander Eric, you don't need to take it too seriously."

"Yes, yes, no wonder, No Worries Village truly lives up to its reputation as a top human guild! The main force in resolving the calamity of death."

Eric gave a thumbs up and said with a smile.

A smug look naturally appeared on Xiao Yun's face, but then he became serious: "Commander Eric, don't be too happy yet. The death in your body has penetrated deep into your soul. Even I cannot cure it in one go. It will require at least three treatments over three days."

Upon hearing the first part of his sentence, Eric looked tense, but after hearing him finish, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief: "Understood, understood. I will definitely gather the resources within three days, and once the treatment is complete, I will hand it over to you, Scholar Gu."

Xiao Yun nodded, relieved: "Judging from the current situation, we should have succeeded in fooling them."

He wasn't lying to Eric; the [Blood Pact of the Flame] could indeed completely suppress the power of death.

But he didn't tell Eric that signing the Blood Pact meant he had to be Eric's dog.

"I only drew part of the blood pact runes just now, so they weren't noticed. But in three days, when the runes are complete and the effects are fully revealed, Eric will understand."

Compared to other master-servant contracts, Xiao Yun's [Burning Fire Blood Pact] is very humane.

As long as one is of sound mind, whether or not to sign is entirely voluntary.

This was originally a well-intentioned design by Xiao Yun, but now it has become a drawback.

"I hadn't noticed this drawback before, since with enough power, I could force such scum to sign, but now—"

Xiao Yun sighed inwardly, but didn't dwell on it too much: "The treatment process takes three days, I can just make it within three days."

With the system and the [Wind Boat], he can easily escape by exploiting a lapse in the Blood Shark Raiders' defenses.

The Sea of ​​No Points is so vast, can this Blood Shark plundering gang really track him down by the smell of blood like sharks?

Xiao Yun pondered for a moment, then took the tea that Hughes handed him and took a sip.

The tea flowed into his mouth, like biting into a green belt; the bitter taste made Xiao Yun frown instantly.

"It's far inferior to the Everlasting Empire's Cangshan Fuxue."

Xiao Yun sighed inwardly, but in this godforsaken place, there was no other choice.

Although tea is bitter, it can also refresh the mind.

He's just an ordinary person now, and an incomplete blood pact for passing on the flame has already exhausted him.

On the other side, Eric was talking to himself, trying to get closer to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun was too lazy to argue with his pointless flattery and disgusting topics. After finishing his tea, he prepared to take his leave.

Just then, Eric suddenly exclaimed, "Don't laugh at me, Scholar Gu, but when the treatment just started, that glint of crimson gold in your eyes really startled me. That feeling was so similar to that of the undead."
