Ye Qinghan gazed at Su Cheng with tender affection, then leaned into his arms...

"Master..."

"Qinghan may... be unable to stay with Master..."

Ye Qinghan gritted her teeth, tears welling in her eyes, and activated her magic, causing the flowing light to transform into a sword box that fell from the sky!

The impact struck the assassin, killing him instantly...

"Qinghan, it's all my fault! Stop talking! I'll think of something!"

"It's no use, Master..."

"No, no!"

How could this happen! How could this happen!

[Damn it! I'll kill you all sooner or later! How dare you hurt my precious Qinghan!]

[If Qinghan lives, I'll make sure you all die a horrible death! If anything happens to Qinghan, I'll make sure you beg for death!]

"Qinghan, where is the elixir I gave you?"

Su Cheng was frantic with worry as he looked at Ye Qinghan, who was speaking weakly and listlessly. She was perfectly fine just a moment ago!

How did an assassin suddenly appear?!

"Master, it hurts so much..."

"It's alright! With your master here, you'll be fine! Even if I crush the cycle of reincarnation, I will ensure your safety!"

"Master, please take care of yourself while Qinghan is away..."

"Bullshit! You couldn't have been gone! Where did you put the elixir I gave you?"

"Why are you spouting such death-threatening nonsense! I won't let you die! With that elixir, even if you're halfway to the gates of hell, I'll pull you back!"

Su Cheng pulled away Ye Qinghan's hand, which was tightly covering his lower abdomen, and saw only smooth skin, seemingly without any penetrating wound!

Thank goodness! It wasn't a penetrating wound. With proper care, it should be fine!

[Healing Pills! Rejuvenating Pills! Blood and Qi Pills! Whether they work or not, give them to Qinghan first!]

"Don't speak, open your mouth!"

"Hmm..." Ye Qinghan was about to speak when Su Cheng stuffed several pills into her mouth!

"How are you?" Su Cheng asked with concern, holding Ye Qinghan in his arms. Ye Qinghan looked haggard and showed no signs of improvement!

"Master, Qinghan hurts so much..."

[Could it be poisonous? Hundred-Injury Powder, Earth Spirit Blood-Regenerating Powder, Antidote...]

Seeing that Ye Qinghan's condition had not improved, Su Cheng stuffed another handful of miraculous medicine into Ye Qinghan's mouth.

"Ugh...cough cough..."

"Master...hug Qinghan..."

"good."

[Huh? Did I give Qinghan the wrong medicine? Why is she bleeding from the nose?]

Ye Qinghan was stunned. Holy crap!

Master's medicine is too strong; I'm getting a sore throat!

"Master..."

"Qinghan, where is the elixir I gave you? That one can definitely cure you!"

"In the chest..."

Su Cheng didn't care about anything else. He put one arm around Ye Qinghan's delicate body and hurriedly pulled open Ye Qinghan's collar with the other hand, reaching into the pocket in Ye Qinghan's arms.

Ye Qinghan's heart pounded. His master was really too bold!

Master, wouldn't it be better to be gentler?

But I don't dislike it myself...

"Master..."

"Don't speak, this is to save your life!"

Su Cheng spoke righteously and eloquently, saying that nothing was more important than the life of his own disciple!

[This guy, what kind of time is this to be shy! Does he have a death wish?]

Wait a minute...

Wasn't she stabbed with a sword? How come there's not a single drop of blood besides her nosebleed...?

Upon hearing this, Ye Qinghan realized the problem: his master was about to discover it!

"Master... Qinghan hurts so much!"

Su Cheng then realized what was happening and quickly turned Ye Qinghan over to check the sword wound on her back.

[The injury is so severe! If I had checked on him even a moment later...]

The swelling will probably go down by then...

Seeing the fist-sized blush on Ye Qinghan's fair back, Su Cheng was speechless...

"Qinghan, it's alright. I'll apply some safflower oil for you when we get back..."

What do we do now? She absolutely cannot admit that she deliberately lied to Master to get a hug!

The master has already taken money from his own pocket; admitting it now would be like waiting to die, wouldn't it?

"Master, please don't comfort Qinghan anymore. Qinghan knows about her injuries..."

Ye Qinghan's eyes were glazed over, as if he wouldn't live for more than two seconds.

[You know nothing! You never give your teacher a moment's peace!]

"You scared me to death! The skin wasn't even broken, it's just a patch of red..."

"Waaaaah, Master, Qinghan is so scared! I'm so afraid I'll never see you again!"

Ye Qinghan didn't care; she just wanted to be close to her master!

"Alright, get up. Button up. Don't carry your life-saving items in your pocket next time..."

Ye Qinghan nodded, then stood up to check the assassin's identity.

But what he was really thinking was: I know I'm wrong, but I won't change!

After examining the body, Ye Qinghan found no valuable clues, since it had been smashed in two...

The only clue was the tattoo on his wrist, which Ye Qinghan didn't recognize, but Su Cheng did.

Most of the assassins from Pingyun Sect were hired by Cheng Liang to kill me.

[Pingyun Sect, is it? You really dare to take on any job, huh?]

What happened back then is now, and I don't care what you said or did back then.

But now, you dare to harm my personally trained disciple?
