Xiao Ming was startled and instantly turned his head toward the source of the sound.
'What is that?'
The expression of deep shock blossomed on his face when he saw a woman floating on the water.
'Isn't she that woman?'
He had seen that young lady before.
Yes, she was the one who fought the winged Tiger earlier!
He rushed toward the young woman before finally saving her and putting her on the flat stone.
'What a beautiful woman!'
Xiao Ming was mesmerized by the beauty of that young woman.
The young woman in front of him had a slender waist and flawless skin. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was exquisite yet elegant.
Her long black hair matched perfectly with her pretty oval face. She only had light makeup, yet it seemed as if her face was elaborately drawn by a world-class artist.
In short, any man would not be able to take their eyes off her after seeing her pretty face, including Xiao Ming.
The young lady was still unconscious, so she had no idea that Xiao Ming was looking at her.
[Several divine beings are looking at you, wanting to know what you will do to that beauty.]
Xiao Ming touched his chin.
'Hmm?'
He noticed a few wounds on her body.
'Should I treat her injures now?'
He got a medicine powder card before.
At this moment, he wavered whether he should treat her injuries or not. After all, he did not know her.
Xiao Ming suddenly remembered something important.
'System, analyze her status.'
He decided to check her status.
The system instantly analyzed the young woman's strength.

'Jackpot!'
Happiness welled up inside him like a burst of fireworks when he saw Evelyn's status.
'System, tell me the criteria for the binding partner?'
Xiao Ming threw a question in his head.
[The target's talent must be higher than Host's talent.]
The corner of his lips twitched.
'Are you making fun of me?'
His talent was the lowest, so he was slightly displeased after hearing it.
'How many partners can I bind?'
He threw another question in his head.
[Host can bind multiple partners, but the current system is level 1, so Host can only bind one partner for now.]
'What about the binding time?'
He asked again.
[The binding time is dependent on target's talent and level. The stronger the target, the longer the binding time.]
'Will there be any negative effects later?'
He wanted to know if there would be any negative effects or not.
[There will be no negative effects; instead, the target will develop familiarity with the host. Of course, she won't see you as her lover. She will think of you as her friend.]
'If so, then bind her right now!'
Evelyn was strong and had a grade A talent, so Xiao Ming told the system to bind her immediately.
[Ding! Targeted binding partner is at Master Rank. Estimated binding time is two years. Do you still want to bind her?]
Xiao Ming almost caught blood.
'Two…two years?'
The corner of his lips twitched.
[Ding! Friendly reminder. Host has a Rush card in the inventory. Host can use the Rush card to shorter the binding time.]
Xiao Ming suddenly remembered that he got one Rush card earlier. "How long is the estimated binding time after using it?"
[Estimated binding time after using the Rush card is ten minutes. Do you want to use it?]
"Of course! Why are you even bother asking something like that?" Xiao Ming replied instantly.
[Ding! Binding is in progress.]
'Now that I have bound my system to her, I have to save her.'
He decided to treat Evelyn's injuries because everything would be in vain if she died.
'System, activate the Medicine Powder card.'
He said in his head.
[Ding! Medicine Powder card activated.]
One jade bottle suddenly appeared and floated before him.
As Xiao Ming was about to treat Evelyn's injuries, she suddenly regained consciousness.
Xiao Ming was startled. free(w)ebnovel
Due to how surprised he was, he sat like a statue.
*One second…two seconds…three seconds…
The two of them did not say anything and only stared at each other.
On the fourth second, Xiao Ming broke out the silence and showed the jade bottle. "Don't get me wrong. You fell into the water and I saved you. I have no bad intentions; instead, I want to save you."
Evelyn did not say anything and only stared at him.
Xiao Ming let out a sigh of relief.
'Luckily, she is not angry. It would be bad if she was furious.'
Evelyn was much stronger than him, so she could kill him with a single slap.
"Ouch!" Evelyn cried out in pain when she tried to sit up.
Xiao Ming instantly helped her sit up. "Be careful. You are still injured."
After sitting up, Evelyn gritted her teeth.
'That damn beast! I'm under his seal.'
She had no idea that the winged Tiger knew seal technique.
"Because you have regained consciousness, you can apply the medicine by yourself." Xiao Ming placed the medicine powder bottle next to her.
Evelyn took the jade bottle and began cleaning her injuries.
She could clean her injuries because Xiao Ming put her on a flat stone next to the flowing water.
At this moment, Xiao Ming was grilling the Flame Chicken.
'Whoa! It looks tasty.'
He gulped his saliva when he saw the roast chicken in front of him.
Evelyn gritted her teeth when she endured the pain. Even though she was already at Master rank, she was a human being, so she could still feel pain.
There were a few wounds on her chest, right leg, and back.
'I can't apply this medicine powder on my back.'
She turned her head to look at Xiao Ming.
'There is no one other than him. What should I do?'
She needed to treat her injuries immediately.
However, there was one big problem.
Xiao Ming was male!
She had never let any man see her body until now, so she was hesitating whether she should ask Xiao Ming for help or not.
"Hey, help me apply the medicine on my back." a sweet and pleasant voice came out of Evelyn's little mouth.
Xiao Ming shifted his gaze from the roast chicken to Evelyn. "Me? Are you sure?"
"I can't do it by myself. Help me apply medicine on my back." Evelyn repeated her words.
"Sure." Xiao Ming rose to his feet and walked toward Evelyn.
After taking the medicine powder, he sat behind her.
'This is…'
He needed to lower her dress if he wanted to apply the medicine on her back.
"Big sis, I have to lower your dress, or else I can't apply the medicine on your back." Xiao Ming hoped that Evelyn had not misunderstood his words.
Evelyn's body trembled slightly.
Even though she knew that something like this would happen, she still could not hold back her tremble.
She shut her eyes before finally speaking, "Just do it. Thanks."
