You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

Although he wouldn't admit it, he was moved. No one else had helped him, only Gong Yue had stepped forward. He would remember this favour for the rest of his life.

"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do," Ye Juetian sincerely expressed his gratitude.

"No need to thank me. If I can see you two become a couple, I'll be very happy, even if I have to be a fake wife," Gong Yue said softly and extended her hand.

Ye Juetian didn't know what to say and handed her a bottle of healing medicine, saying, "Thank you."

"Are you going to be polite to me too? Be careful; I might not help you anymore." Gong Yue teased. Without waiting for Ye Juetian's response, she disappeared into the room.

One couldn't deny that Gong Yue was quite skilled in stirring up emotions. At least after these few encounters, Ye Juetian had a full appreciation for Gong Yue, but his heart was currently filled with thoughts of Yi Yi.

In the dungeon, where Ye Juetian had been imprisoned before, Yi Yi was also confined. The air was damp, and the sound of dripping water could be heard occasionally. This was probably the worst place in the entire Voidless Empire. When it was constructed, the idea was to provide the prisoners with poor living conditions. After all, why should they have it good? Was the goal to make it a five-star hotel?

Yi Yi lay on the damp ground, her clothes stained with blood, and traces of blood lingered on her lips. Fortunately, she was still breathing. However, her breathing was weak, so weak that without treatment, she would not last through the night, let alone until morning.

Even surviving the night seemed unlikely.

Gong Yue had searched for a while and finally found the so-called dungeon. Two black-armoured warriors guarded outside. These warriors only followed the orders of Ye Hua and Wei Chang. They wouldn't listen to anyone else, not even Qing Ya and the others.

Therefore, Gong Yue had no intention of entering the dungeon normally. As an Overlord, she had many ways to enter. Moreover, these black-armoured warriors were not at the Overlord's level. So, Gong Yue entered smoothly, and the two black-armoured warriors were frozen in place, oblivious to anyone entering.

Some palace maids, however, witnessed Gong Yue going to the dungeon and expressed curiosity.

Walking out of the celestial prison, Gong Yue furrowed her eyebrows slightly. The environment here was even worse than she had imagined.

It was simply uninhabitable.

Soon, Gong Yue found Yi Yi's cell and discovered Yi Yi lying on the ground, barely breathing.

As long as her medicine was not delivered, Yi Yi would surely die within two hours!

Gong Yue was now pondering whether to deliver the medicine.

In fact, there were many excuses she could use.

Just as Gong Yue was lost in thought, Yi Yi on the ground slowly opened her eyes.

However, these eyes lacked the usual liveliness; they carried a hint of lifelessness. Yi Yi looked at the woman before her, someone she recognized as Ye Ye's fiancée, the one who had come to her aid.

Weakened, Yi Yi managed to squeeze out a faint smile, wanting to express her gratitude. However, she couldn't find the words, so she could only use that smile to convey her thanks for everything the woman had done.

If Ye Juetian were to see Yi Yi's smile, he would undoubtedly feel extremely uncomfortable. "You're already so injured, why do you still do this? Aren't you concerned for yourself?"

Gong Yue, witnessing Yi Yi's innocent smile, felt a bit strange in her heart. Such a pure-hearted girl, probably one of a kind!

'You, an ordinary woman, why are you so clueless? Ye Juetian is not your destination! Following Ye Juetian is only dangerous. Even if his Big Brother doesn't act, I will. Do you understand? You fool! How can you still smile at me?'

For some reason, watching Yi Yi reveal such a pure smile, Gong Yue felt a bit odd. She could only use certain words to generate hatred in her heart, making herself resent this woman.

Gong Yue then directly passed through the iron bars and squatted in front of Yi Yi. Softly, she said, "Juetian asked me to come and save you."

Gong Yue decided to maintain her image. Even if Yi Yi died now, she would live forever in Juetian's heart. This was not the outcome she wanted!

Yi Yi heard this, and the curvature of her lips increased. She knew Ye Ye wouldn't abandon her.

Ye Ye must have been in great pain just now.

Gong Yue took out the medicine given by Ye Juetian, and a pleasant fragrance wafted out. Just by smelling it, one could tell it was no ordinary medicine.

After all, it was a healing medicine for an Overlord.

Gong Yue had no intention of harming Yi Yi now. If she wanted to harm her, she could make her swallow the whole pill, causing her to explode instantly.

The medicine for healing an Overlord, could Yi Yi, an ordinary person, withstand its medicinal power? So, Gong Yue only used her fingers to grind a layer of medicine peel, gently applying it to Yi Yi's lips. Then, a green light shot out from her fingers.

Yi Yi instantly felt much better. The pain disappeared, and her breathing became much smoother.

After a while, Yi Yi had completely recovered.

After all, as an Overlord, treating an ordinary person was an effortless task. Even without medicine, Gong Yue could have healed Yi Yi.

Yi Yi, now healed, expressed her gratitude with a joyful expression. "Thank you for saving me."

Gong Yue showed a faint smile and said softly, "You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank anyone, thank Juetian. He couldn't come, so he sent me."

"Yeah, I know he couldn't come. But still, thank you," Yi Yi sweetly replied, her eyes returning to their usual lively state, looking beautiful.

Gong Yue chuckled softly. "Don't blame Juetian for today's events. He had no other choice."

Thinking about what happened today, Yi Yi felt distressed. "It's all my fault, making everyone unhappy. I'm just too foolish."

"Yi Yi, you're actually very brave. I've never admired any woman before, and you're the first one I genuinely admire!" Gong Yue calmly said, and this statement was sincere. Gong Yue truly admired Yi Yi.

An ordinary person enduring over sixty lashes before fainting. Even if Ye Juetian was not using his full strength, those hits were still landing on her body. Such perseverance was unimaginable.

"I just didn't want to make Ye Ye sad, but in the end, I couldn't hold on any longer," Yi Yi whispered, full of self-blame.

Gong Yue, upon hearing this, questioned herself. Would she have made such sacrifices if she were an ordinary person?

Her initial thought was no.

But soon, it changed to yes.

"Yi Yi, rest well. Juetian will find a way to save you from the outside," Gong Yue stood up and said earnestly. Save her? That was impossible unless Ye Hua loosened his grip a bit.

Yi Yi, with concern in her voice, said, "Don't let Ye Ye suffer too much."

"Yi Yi, Rest assured; I'm, after all, Juetian's fiancée. I will take good care of him," Gong Yue reassured.

As Gong Yue gradually walked away, a look of confusion appeared on Yi Yi's face.
