CHAPTER 439: CHAPTER 437: HEALING THE INJURY

Butterfly was stunned when she saw Qin Hao help her block a strike. She muttered to herself, "Senior, Senior..."

After all, Qin Hao’s action was completely unexpected for her. She and Qin Hao weren’t related at all, and she had even attempted to assassinate him several times before. She couldn’t figure out why Qin Hao would help her.

Her thoughts shifted, and she remembered the power of the Dark Stone Assassin Group. Wang Hu decided to kill her precisely because of them. If Qin Hao intervened, he would certainly incur the group’s wrath and revenge.

Not wanting to implicate Qin Hao, Butterfly hurriedly shouted, "Senior, this is a matter between Wang Hu and me, it has nothing to do with you, please step aside!"

Qin Hao’s expression remained unchanged as he gently withdrew his hand.

However, Wang Hu’s expression grew complicated. He looked at Qin Hao in surprise and said, "Your skills are impressive, but taking my strike head-on can’t have been as easy as it looks, right?"

Qin Hao smiled slightly and replied, "Heh, whether it’s easy or not, why don’t you come and try again?"

"Humph! Arrogant!"

With a shout, Wang Hu charged at Qin Hao like a hungry wolf, while Qin Hao remained still, waiting until the moment Wang Hu approached before raising his leg swiftly for a precise sidekick to Wang Hu’s chest.

With a thud!

Wang Hu flew backward, landing on the ground and coughing up blood. His group of followers immediately shouted and rushed at Qin Hao.

With a disdainful smile, Qin Hao transformed into a lightning bolt, quickly darting into the crowd, like a wolf among sheep. In just two minutes, bodies lay groaning across the stairwell floor.

Qin Hao kicked aside a big man blocking his path, sending him rolling down the stairs to join several of his similarly dispatched comrades on the lower landing.

Butterfly wore a shocked expression. She knew Qin Hao was formidable, but hadn’t expected him to be this powerful!

She looked at Qin Hao in surprise, about to say something, but Qin Hao suddenly frowned, sensing a very strong presence.

This was the place where the Vice Gang Leader of the Golden Stone Sect resided, so naturally it would be guarded by strong individuals. The commotion from the fight had already alerted the sect’s resident elite. Qin Hao glanced at the severely injured Butterfly, sighed, and picked her up, rushing downstairs.

The powerful presence quickly arrived at the scene of their recent fight, but after investigating, found no trace of Qin Hao and reluctantly withdrew.

At this moment, Qin Hao, carrying Butterfly, reached the hotel corridor.

Butterfly, cradled like a princess in Qin Hao’s arms, couldn’t help blushing. She struggled and said, "You, where are you taking me?"

Feeling the ominous presence fade, Qin Hao relaxed slightly and smirked, saying, "Of course, I’m taking you to get a room!"

Butterfly was taken aback, quickly responding, "Get a room? I don’t want to get a room, let me down, I want to go home!"

"Heh heh, still want to go home? Think about it, I just saved you, surely there’s something I have in mind for it. Now, taking you to get a room is just for you to repay me properly."

As he spoke, his eyes mischievously swept over Butterfly’s chest, making her face flush crimson with embarrassment. Struggling in his arms, she said, "Oh, let me down! Senior! You can’t do this!"

Seeing her struggle, Qin Hao quickly held her tighter and said seriously, "Don’t move, your injuries are serious; if you keep squirming, you might lose your life!"

Hearing this, Butterfly immediately calmed down, but still said helplessly, "Boo hoo, and yet you want me to repay you, I’m already severely injured, can’t you show some concern for me?"

Qin Hao smiled slightly and replied, "Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle in a moment."

As he said this, they reached a room door. He took out a room card and swiped it open.

Butterfly’s eyes widened in shock, and she exclaimed, "Hey! Did you really book a room?"

Qin Hao tossed her onto the bed, turned around to close the door, and shrugged, "Yeah, why not? You think I’m joking with you?"

Butterfly’s face flushed with a mix of shame and anger as she glanced around the room, which was indeed a couple’s room with a big bed!

Rose petals were scattered across the white sheets. Angry, Butterfly grabbed a handful and threw them at Qin Hao, scolding, "You heartless guy! I’m in this state, and you’re still thinking about that, boo hoo, it’s too much, I want to go home!"

From the side table, Qin Hao took a pack of wet wipes, and irritably grasped her hand to make her lie quietly on the bed, then said directly, "Stay still!"

His voice startled Butterfly into a daze, while Qin Hao pulled out a wipe and gently cleaned the blood from her lips.

His movements were gentle and meticulous, leaving Butterfly stupefied, staring blankly at Qin Hao and letting him act.

She was an orphan, raised by an assassin organization, and aside from her master’s cold teachings, she rarely felt warmth within the group.

Qin Hao’s sudden act inexplicably made Butterfly feel a kind of warmth she had never known. She was still in a daze, and Qin Hao had finished cleaning the blood, saying:

"Alright, now that you’re all cleaned up, we can get down to business!"

Upon hearing this, the warmth Butterfly just felt vanished, and she exclaimed in shock, "You still insist on it!?"

Seeing her endearing and delicate demeanor, Qin Hao decided not to tease her anymore and said, "Yes, check your body, that strike from Wang Hu has hiddenly damaged your meridians. If you don’t treat it in time, expect to become crippled!"

Butterfly was alarmed and quickly examined her body, finding Qin Hao’s words true; her meridians were seriously injured.

She said bitterly, "Oh no! What should I do?"

Qin Hao smiled gently and replied, "Consider yourself lucky to have met me. With your injuries, fewer than five people in the world can heal them, and fortunately, I’m one of them."
