At that time, Ye Qinghan had just caught the escaped Dongfang Jue and was about to go down and capture him to teach him a lesson when he felt a strange sensation coming from him...

It felt like my master's wife's interdimensional portal, like the power of spatial authority.

Looking back, she saw her severely injured master lying straight towards her.

At that moment, Ye Qinghan felt as if his mind had gone blank.

Without realizing it, he caught his master. His master looked very strange. Golden runes covered his sword-wielding arm, while his other left arm revealed bare bones with all the flesh stripped away.

Master collapsed into his arms with a bitter smile. Ye Qinghan felt the smell of blood fill his nostrils, followed by a pungent odor like burnt plastic.

Ye Qinghan disregarded everything else and, while using his immortal techniques to heal his master, took him home.

"Come on, Master, let's go home. You'll be alright. Qinghan... I'll take you home..."

Master leaned on Ye Qinghan's shoulder, and Ye Qinghan seemed to hear Master telling her not to be afraid.

Ye Qinghan wasn't afraid, she was just a little frightened.

【Jue'er, Shiyao, I'm taking Shizun home. After you've finished dealing with things here, come back and help.】

Only when the night was deep and quiet did Ye Qinghan dare to lean against the headboard and secretly wipe away her tears, as if she had returned to those days when she was helpless and alone, and her master's injuries showed no signs of healing.

Master was only able to slowly recover thanks to Chu Youwei's immortal techniques.

Even the elixir bestowed by Master had little effect on Master's injuries.

"You'd better hope your master is alive. If your master is gone, Youwei will make you all suffer a fate worse than death."

Wiping away the large beads of sweat from her forehead, Chu Youwei decided to rest for a while. Even though she was only healing her master, the continuous casting of spells had left her very weak.

He is currently only at the peak of the Golden Core stage, and it is only because of his memories from his previous life that he is far superior to his three direct disciples in terms of cognition.

"Let me take your place." Ye Qinghan didn't seem to care, but looking at Chu Youwei's appearance, he understood that this was taking a heavy toll on her.

"No need! Keep your filthy hands away. If you hadn't always been encouraging Master to do dangerous things, why would Master have done such a thing?"

Even though Ye Qinghan was trying to be tolerant, he was starting to lose his composure!

"Let me tell you, Chu Youwei, Qinghan isn't afraid of you. If it weren't for your sincerity towards your master, and your daring to speak to Qinghan like that, Qinghan would have torn your mouth apart no matter what!"

Chu Youwei was no pushover either: "Heh, do you dare say this isn't something you've been instigating day after day?"

“How could Youwei not know her master’s character? How could she do something so dangerous?”

"Master never does anything without being sure of success. Now that something has happened, do you dare say that you have nothing to do with it?"

"Master is not good at dealing with women. Even if he sees through your tricks, he probably won't take you seriously."

"But unfortunately, Youwei will be keeping an eye on you for Master~ Youwei won't let you succeed!"

Is it just instigation day after day?

Ye Qinghan didn't know what to say, she didn't know how to explain, because...

Is it really because of her?

She never intended to harm her master...

She just didn't want her master to be so timid and submissive; she wanted to help him...

Chu Youwei didn't hold a grudge. To put it bluntly, Chu Youwei simply couldn't be bothered with Ye Qinghan and didn't even glance at him.

Chu Youwei didn't rest for long before continuing to heal her master. Her immortal magic transformed into a semi-transparent ball of energy that resembled true qi, gathering in the palm of her jade hand and pressing it above the wound.

As the magical energy flowed, the skin and flesh around the wound seemed to gradually recover, and the necrotic skin tissue gradually became active again.

However, it may take some time for the arm, which exposes its bare bones, to recover.

"Shiyao, is this my fault?"

Under the tree in the courtyard, Ye Qinghan looked at Li Shiyao, who seemed somewhat carefree, and then spoke.

"Shiyao doesn't know."

"Shiyao heard it too, didn't she?"

"Yes, Shiyao heard you."

"Does Shiyao also think this is my fault?"

"Shiyao doesn't think so, Shiyao doesn't know."

Ye Qinghan remained silent, her grievances written all over her face. This was not her intention; she did not think that way.

But without a doubt, she was far less mature than her teacher's wife, and less sensible than Chu Youwei.

From the moment she became a disciple, all she did was cause trouble for her master, stir up trouble everywhere, and make enemies for her master and Lingxian Palace.

They even felt that this was how a master should be.

Forgetting one's master does not mean one is omnipotent.

"Senior sister, Shiyao has no idea what Sister Youwei is talking about, but Shiyao knows that senior sister loves Shizun and would never do anything to hurt Shizun. Shiyao believes in senior sister!"

"Senior sister, don't be sad, Master will be alright... Senior sister's condition... Shiyao also wants to cry..."

To be honest, Li Shiyao is really not good at comforting people, but fortunately Ye Qinghan has a pretty good ability to process things on her own. However, even if she can't process it, she can't just stay sad like this.

This doesn't change anything.

"Shiyao, it's fine as long as your senior sister is here. You should go and rest for a bit..."

Ye Qinghan had intended to tell his two junior sisters to go back and rest early, since Shi Yao had helped a lot these past two days, but unexpectedly he heard Chu Youwei's voice coming from inside the room.

"Master, what's the rush? Can't you wait until you're feeling better? Youwei is worried about those vixens!"
