Ever since Matthew treated Lola, she could not resist blushing every time she bumped into him as she would inevitably recall what happened that day.
For that reason, she began to avoid him all the time.
To avoid bumping into him, she had planned on only leaving her room after everyone was done with lunch.
However, the people from the martial league appeared to question her about Matthew.
For some reason, that worried her.
Currently, she was watching through the window as Matthew and Shawn walked into the backyard.
She used Crichton's secret technique, Clairvoyance.
The nimbus rumbled as her divine sight was activated.
When she turned to look at Matthew, her face went stark white.
She could see a never-ending black cloud of death hovering over Matthew's head. It kept growing as she stared at the man.
Lola planned on finding the source of the cloud of death.
However, a horrifying energy backlash instantly overwhelmed her.
She tried to end the technique as fast as she could, but she was still one step too late.
The furniture in front of her was now stained with blood.
She clutched at her chest as she hurriedly cleared her mouth of blood.
"Do not ever seek to know the secrets of destiny, or you will suffer a divine punishment."
Her Master repeatedly emphasized that saying when she was taught how to use Clairvoyance.
Nevertheless, she had used the technique for Matthew's sake.
She did not care if she risked getting heavily injured.
After swallowing a Recovery Pill, she waited until she could feel the pill suppress the symptoms of her injuries before striding over to Matthew.
"Come with me, Matthew. I have something to tell you," she said.
Matthew nodded when he saw how panicked she was.
Shawn watched as the two of them walked into a nearby room.
"This is a holy snow lily from the ice mountains, and here are some flaming rainbow lilies. They are all used to heal injuries. You must keep them on you all the time," she said before shoving a whole bunch of precious herbs into his arms.
Matthew froze, stunned.
"What's this? Why are you giving me so many herbs? Do you think I'm a pig?" he asked.
Lola's heart continued to beat anxiously.
"How can you still smile? Don't you know you're going to die soon?!" she exclaimed.
No one would dare use it on a whim, even if they were a grandmaster.
At Lola's current cultivation base, she was risking her life by using that skill.
At that thought, he turned to stare into her eyes. He was filled with guilt.
"I'm not…"
He wanted to say that he was not worth using that technique for.
However, one glance at her bloodshot eyes told him it'd be too hurtful if he said that. Hence, he swiftly swallowed back his words.
"Don't worry. I won't die," he said instead. "I am a stubborn man. Years ago, thousands of powerful fighters wanted to kill me. Nonetheless, I'm still here, aren't I? Relax. No one on this earth can kill me."
He then struck a powerful pose as if to show off his muscles.
He was so carefree and irreverent, and the woman laughed through her tears.
"How can you boast at such a time?"
"I'm telling the truth, yet you don't believe me at all. Forget it, then. Let's not talk about this and treat your injuries first," he replied.
Suddenly, her cheeks burned bright red.
Seeing that, he decided to reassure her by saying, "Don't worry. There won't be any acupuncture involved at all."
Immediately after he said that, a pillow was smashed into his face.
