Rebirth of the Innkeeper's Wife: She's Not to Be Messed With

Chapter 197 Yu Chen

Under the combined attack of Huan Yuechu's mysterious and powerful forbidden technique and exquisite array, he was caught in the crossfire.

The power of that terrifying entity began to retreat steadily, like water bursting its banks.

Its once arrogant and domineering aura gradually waned, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

The remnant soul of the demon god saw itself gradually losing ground in this fierce battle.

The anger in his heart instantly reached its peak, and he couldn't help but roar with fury!

The deafening roar seemed capable of tearing the sky apart, causing the entire world to tremble.

However, at this moment, it had lost the support of its own remnant soul power, despite struggling with all its might.

However, faced with the fierce joint offensive launched by everyone who had rallied after numerous setbacks, they still seemed powerless and unable to resist.

With everyone working together and making unremitting efforts, the power of the remnant soul of the demon god is being weakened little by little.

Its originally ferocious and terrifying face gradually distorted as its power dissipated, revealing a deep sense of despair and resentment in its eyes.

Finally, accompanied by a final, deafening roar that echoed through the heavens.

The remnant soul of the demon god slowly dissipated into the air like smoke.

It eventually vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

At this moment, everyone was exhausted to the extreme, their bodies felt like they were about to fall apart, and every movement became extremely difficult.

Even so, everyone's face spontaneously broke into a smile as bright as spring flowers.

Because they knew that this thrilling and perilous crisis had finally been successfully resolved thanks to everyone's joint efforts.

This hard-won victory deserves to be greeted and celebrated with the most sincere smiles.

However, at this critical moment, Huan Yuechu, who had been struggling to hold on, was ultimately unable to withstand the powerful backlash brought about by the forbidden technique.

In an instant, her originally rosy complexion turned as pale as snow in winter, completely devoid of color.

Each bead of sweat, as large as a bean, resembled a broken string of pearls.

It kept sliding down her smooth forehead, wetting her clothes.

At this moment, Huan Yuechu's figure swayed precariously, like a candle flickering in the wind. It seemed that even the slightest breeze could easily knock her to the ground.

Those present who witnessed this scene felt a pang of anxiety and hurriedly gathered around her.

"Huan Yuechu, how are you feeling? Are you alright?" Mu Yang asked first, his face full of concern.

Despite the pain, Huan Yuechu forced a weak smile through her pain.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. I just suffered a little backlash from spiritual energy."

Despite saying that, it's obvious to anyone with eyes that it's not true.

At this moment, Huan Yuechu was already at her limit, and even standing seemed a bit difficult.

Her long, slender legs began to tremble slightly involuntarily.

Just when everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly, a white figure appeared before everyone like a ghost.

The newcomer was a young man in white robes. He held a pill that shimmered with a strange light, as if it were the most precious treasure in the world.

"This pill may help you temporarily alleviate your current situation."

The young man in white spoke succinctly, then without hesitation, he placed the pill near Huan Yuechu's lips and gently fed it into her mouth.

Huan Yuechu obediently opened her mouth and swallowed the pill that emitted a faint fragrance.

Time passed by, minute by minute, and not long afterward...

She suddenly felt a refreshing coolness spreading from her throat, like a clear spring flowing through her limbs and bones.

Wherever that coolness reaches, it brings not only comfort and relaxation, but also an indescribable gentle power.

This power quickly spread to every corner of the body, as if countless gentle hands were soothing the restless elements within.

The spiritual energy that had previously been rampaging and chaotic within her body was now like a tamed wild beast.

They gradually quieted down and slowly returned to their proper tracks, running smoothly and methodically.

Huan Yuechu was overjoyed and grateful: "Thank you for the medicine. If it weren't for it, I would probably be in grave danger."

The boy standing to the side remained calm and composed, and said in a low voice.

"I just couldn't bear to see you die innocently because of a moment of impulsiveness. Remember not to use forbidden techniques recklessly in the future, otherwise you may not be so lucky next time."

Huan Yuechu stared at the young man before her, her eyes revealing curiosity and a desire to explore.

"We have known each other for some time now, but I have never known how to address you. Moreover, such a miraculous medicine must be priceless. I really don't know how to repay this kindness."

The boy crossed his arms over his chest, tilted his head slightly, and answered slowly and deliberately.

"My name is Yu Chen. As for repaying me, there's no need to worry about it. I just hope you'll be more careful in your future actions."

Upon hearing this, Huan Yuechu nodded slightly to indicate her agreement.

"I will never forget your life-saving grace today, and I will definitely find a way to repay you in the future."

Seeing this, Yu Chen simply waved his hand casually, indicating that the matter should be dropped and he was unwilling to say anything more.

Just then, Mu Yang, who had been observing silently from the side, stepped forward and said to Yu Chen with a smile on his face.

"Brother Yu Chen, this pill of yours is truly miraculous; it must be no ordinary thing. We haven't had a chance to properly thank you yet."

Yu Chen merely glanced at him indifferently before uttering two words expressionlessly: "No need."

His tone was so cold it seemed to freeze the air around him.

Just then, Su Jinyan, who had been silent all along, suddenly changed the subject, looked directly at Huan Yuechu, and asked.

"Chu'er, you are always cautious in your actions, yet you used the forbidden technique so easily this time. Could there be some unknown secret hidden behind it?"

Caught off guard by Su Jinyan's sudden question, Huan Yuechu's previously composed and calm demeanor instantly turned slightly flustered.

"No! There's no secret behind it. Don't make wild guesses!"

However, only she knew in her heart that she had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, but for some reason, she simply couldn't tell anyone else.

Even if she did say it, the people present might not necessarily choose to believe her.
