Xia Hongdou's hand touched something wet. After glancing at it, she froze, staring blankly at Ye Qiu.

Ignoring his injuries, Ye Qiu suddenly turned around and looked at a small building across the street.

Upstairs in the small building, a sniper's eyes were icy cold.

His gaze met Ye Qiu's across the distance.

The moment their eyes met, the sniper couldn't help but shudder.

Immediately afterward, the sniper turned and left without hesitation, quickly disappearing from the building.

Seeing that the danger had passed, Ye Qiu finally relaxed and felt the sharp pain coming from his back.

"No...it's nothing." Ye Qiu said softly, "It seems I can't take you home. You should go back by yourself."

"How are you? I'll take you to the hospital."

Xia Hongdou said anxiously.

"No need," Ye Qiu said. "If I don't go back now, my girlfriend will worry. Let's talk again tomorrow."

After saying this, Ye Qiu removed Xia Hongdou's hand, turned around, and quickly left.

"You bastard, stop right there."

Xia Hongdou wants to pursue Ye Qiu.

Even though Ye Qiu was injured, he was incredibly fast and quickly left Xia Hongdou behind.

Xia Hongdou stamped her feet, tears welling up in her eyes, feeling both frightened and moved.

...

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu quickly rushed home.

Hearing the commotion, the young woman cooking turned around and saw Ye Qiu covered in blood. Shocked, she quickly turned off the gas and ran to Ye Qiu's side, asking, "How did you get hurt?"

"I've run into some trouble..."

Ye Qiu quickly recounted what had happened that day.

After hearing this, Qingniao angrily shouted, "You're not allowed to do that again! Your life is a million times more precious than that girl's. If you do that again, I'll abandon you!"

"I know I was wrong."

Ye Qiu smiled bitterly.

"asshole."

Qingniao quickly took off Ye Qiu's clothes, treated Ye Qiu's wounds, and removed the bullet.

Afterwards, the bluebird used its spiritual power to help Ye Qiu heal.

Twenty minutes later, Ye Qiu's wound had scabbed over.

The bluebird was somewhat taken aback.

She knew that although her spiritual power had some effect, it would definitely not be able to make Ye Qiu's wound scab over so quickly.

Ye Qiu's rapid recovery was largely due to his own physical condition.

This healing speed is truly astonishing.

"Come on, let me help you wash up and then change into some clean clothes."

The bluebird helps the autumn leaves rise.

"You're still the best."

Ye Qiu grinned.

"Stop being silly. Don't do that again, understand?"

The bluebird stared at Ye Qiu.

"knew."

Ye Qiu nodded in agreement.

But Ye Qiu knew that if he encountered that kind of situation again, he would still take the bullet.

This wasn't because he had feelings for Xia Hongdou, but rather because he would instinctively attack anyone who wasn't an enemy.

After carefully and gently bathing Ye Qiu and changing him into clean clothes, Qingniao pulled Ye Qiu to sit down and said softly, "Since you found millions on WeChat, you don't need to go to work anymore. This money should be enough for us to get through this period of time."

"Bluebird, I have an idea," Ye Qiu said. "With so much money, there's definitely no problem with food and drink, but I always feel insecure. I don't know why, but I really, really want to become stronger. So, could we use this money to buy something that can improve our strength?"

Qingniao stared at Ye Qiu. She understood what Ye Qiu was thinking and why he felt insecure.

Ye Qiu was once incredibly powerful, standing at the pinnacle of martial arts. Even a top expert like the Black Dragon Sword Immortal, who wielded the Kunlun Cauldron, was no match for him.

Ye Qiu, in that sense, must be an extremely confident person, a confidence that runs deep in his bones.

Even though his memories are now sealed, his subconscious desire to return to his peak must be constantly reminding him, right?

Thinking of this, the bluebird said softly, "I will help you, but if I don't help you find this thing, who will take care of you?"

“It’s alright, I go out to work every day. I plan to work as Xia Hongdou’s bodyguard first. Anyway, the monthly salary is not bad. But I’ll have to work hard for you,” Ye Qiu said.

"Okay, but you can be her bodyguard, but whatever you do, don't risk your life again, understand?"

"But I work as someone's bodyguard and get paid so much, I can't just..."

“I don’t care,” the bluebird said. “In my heart, you are the most precious person. If anyone causes you to lose your life, I will kill their entire family.”

"knew."

Ye Qiu smiled gently and hugged Qingniao tightly, moved.

The bluebird wrapped its arms around Ye Qiu's neck and whispered, "Then I'll go out tomorrow to help you search. It might take about half a month before I come back. When I return, I'll definitely bring you something nice. During this time, you can stay at that Dou family's place. After I come back, you can move back. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but aren't you afraid that something might happen between me and Xia Hongdou?" Ye Qiu asked.

"I'm not afraid. My man can do whatever he wants. I don't care as long as he's alive."

"It's a bluebird," the bird said sweetly.

"this..."

Ye Qiu was stunned.

"Okay, go to sleep and get some rest."

"Bluebird, I'll get you a card tomorrow and transfer all my money to you so you can help me find things to improve my cultivation, okay?"

"Okay, go to sleep."

...

At the same time, in Qianzhou.

Zhao Churan and Li Yuechan lay together, reminiscing about the past.

As they talked, the two women couldn't help but hug each other and burst into tears.

"Yuechan, you said Ye Qiu has disappeared. Does that mean he'll never come back?"
