The moment Ye Xiruo saw her senior brother covered in blood, she wanted nothing more than to drag him over and give him a good scolding. Why was he risking his life like that?

Ye Xiruo naturally wouldn't think that Zishu did this for the sake of that empty fame; it must be for the sake of pride, to spite Brother Xiuqi.

The Great Rejuvenation Pill is a top-grade healing pill. No matter how severe the injury, having one Great Rejuvenation Pill will definitely save his life. Coupled with the Qingyang True Qi, which is the most suitable for healing in the world, Zishu's life is absolutely safe.

Nourished by the Qingyang True Qi, Zishu's external injuries gradually healed. Of course, the transparent holes and deeper wounds only stopped bleeding and were not fully healed.

With the combined effects of the Azure Yang True Qi and the Great Rejuvenation Pill, Zishu's internal injuries were gradually improving. If Ye Xiruo hadn't withdrawn the Azure Yang True Qi immediately, it would have been best if his senior brother hadn't suffered any hidden injuries from his severe injuries.

At least the Qingyang True Qi could accelerate the healing of the senior brother's injuries.

The hundreds of swordsmen present watched quietly as Ye Xiruo skillfully treated the injuries.

The vibrant Qingyang True Qi activated the true essence within their bodies, and Ye Xiruo's method of healing surprised many.

When Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha arrived, they saw this scene.

Who on earth is it that made Xiao Ye expend so much of her true energy to treat him? Xiu Qiyu could sense Ye Xiruo's seriousness and tension. Could the injured person be Zishu?!

Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha stood beside Ye Xiruo, their right hands already on their swords. The expressions on their faces told everyone that if anyone dared to harm Ye Xiruo, their swords would be drawn without hesitation, and blood would be drawn.

The two elders pursed their lips, it seemed that there was nothing for them to do.

If Ye Xiruo was healing her senior brother, it would be only natural for Xiu Qiyu to protect him. So what was Ye Liusha doing here? Was he trying to undermine Xiu Qiyu, or was he trying to win over Master Zishu?

More than an hour later, Ye Xiruo slowly withdrew the Qingyang True Qi in her hand. Now, she only had less than a third of her true essence left.

"Little Leaf, are you alright?"

"Brother Xiuqi, you've emerged from seclusion."

Xiu Qiyu nodded: "When did Senior Brother arrive?"

"yesterday."

She just arrived yesterday and got injured today, and so seriously so. Xiu Qiyu herself didn't know what to say.

"Your record has been broken."

"This is meaningless, just a normal assessment." Xiu Qiyu took out a bottle of Nourishing Essence Pills from his spatial ring and gave them to Ye Xiruo.

"You wouldn't understand, Senior Brother should have gained a lot."

"What should we do now?" Should we stay here with our senior brother to heal his injuries, or carry him back to heal slowly?

"Let's carry him back. The Great Rejuvenation Pill will automatically heal the injuries in Senior Brother's body, and his spiritual power also needs to recover slowly."

So Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha did the hard work, helping Zishu back to the residence that Tianjian Sect had arranged for him.

"Brother Xiu Qi, could you please set up another spirit-gathering array to help Senior Brother's injuries heal faster?"

"Why didn't you stop him? It's not worth it if he's just trying to spite me."

"No one knows what the situation is like inside the Sword Tower, or what my senior brother went through. I respect his choice. My senior brother is different from me; he will become a true powerhouse."

"If you go to the Sword Tower a few more times, you might be able to develop some decent swordsmanship skills."

"You reminded me, I'll go to the Sword Tower more often from now on."

"You go back and rest first. I'll keep watch over things here."

"Thank you for your trouble, Brother Xiu Qi."

Ye Liusha thought to himself, "Am I just superfluous again?"

"You two stay here. If Senior Brother regains consciousness, be sure to let me know immediately."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Not long after Ye Xiruo returned to his residence, two elders came to inquire about his senior brother's injuries.

"Thank you for your concern, elders. Senior Brother is much better now."

"How skilled is Master Zishu Dan in swordsmanship?"

"How could Senior Brother, a master alchemist, possibly possess the ultimate swordsmanship?"

"What if the Heavenly Sword Sect were willing to impart all their knowledge and skills to train him into an unparalleled swordsman?"

"I'm afraid this will disappoint you. Senior Brother has decided to cultivate with Elder Meng."

"That's such a pity."

"Yes, it's such a pity."

As expected, the Heavenly Sword Sect wanted to poach their senior brother, but unfortunately, the senior brother could not stay in the Heavenly Sword Sect, nor could he sign a contract with anyone.

Ye Xiruo instructed her servants to hang up a "Do Not Disturb" sign and began meditating to cultivate and restore her spiritual power and true essence.

Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha were meditating in the room next to Zishu, taking turns, of course.

Zishu was indeed seriously injured this time, with hundreds of sword wounds of various sizes and more than a dozen transparent holes on his body. Fortunately, Ye Xiruo treated him in time, and with the Great Rejuvenation Pill and Qingyang True Qi, Zishu's aura gradually stabilized.

The next day, Zishu regained consciousness and felt much better than before he fainted. This must have been the work of his junior sister.

"You're awake." Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha burst through the door.

"Yes, thank you both."

"If it weren't for Xiao Yezi's request, Xiu Qiyu would have preferred to stay by Ye Xiruo's side."

"How is Junior Sister doing?"

"You're in seclusion recovering. Only if you focus on healing can Xiaoyezi be at ease."

"I'm much better now. I'll be fully recovered after a week of rest."

"You're taking too much of a risk."

"My sword intent suddenly broke through, catching me off guard, which is why I was seriously injured."

"Congratulations." Few people can break through in the Sword Tower, but Zishu actually managed to have an epiphany in the Sword Tower and then break through to the Sword Intent. He is a prodigy.

"The price was also quite heavy."

"I hope there won't be a next time," Xiu Qiyu said very seriously.

"Don't worry, it won't happen again."

"Don't worry about getting better, I'll come see you later."

Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha left Zishu's residence directly. Ye Xiruo was still in seclusion. After leaving a message, Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha left.

None of the four of them expected that Ye Xiruo and Zishu had become so popular. Originally, Xiu Qiyu was the undisputed number one in their year, but now Zishu had broken Xiu Qiyu's record.

In other words, Xiu Qiyu has been dethroned, and many people are eager to challenge him to a duel.

If they can defeat Xiu Qiyu, it means they have a chance to become his personal disciples.
