When Hua Rong, Qing Zhiyi, and the others arrived, this was the scene they saw.

Qingzhiyi felt a lump in her throat. Xiaoyezi was unconscious, and her senior brother was so heartbroken. These were not the results they wanted to see.

"Senior Brother/Brother Xiu".

"You've arrived."

Xiu Qiyu turned around, the grief and murderous intent on her face completely gone, but the icy coldness in her eyes still hadn't melted away.

"I'm sorry," the four of them said in unison.

"Senior Brother, I know it's too late to say anything now, and it won't change the fact that Xiao Yezi is injured. You can hit or scold us, we won't have any complaints."

Among these people, Qing Zhiyi had been with Xiu Qiyu the longest and understood him the best. Therefore, she saw the pain in Xiu Qiyu's eyes at a glance.

"It's none of your business, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Xiao Yezi wouldn't have been hurt. I'm sorry, Brother Xiu."

"You've all seen the results; all I want to know is the reason."

Chi Yi reluctantly recounted the whole story, and Xiu Qiyu nodded, "I understand."

Is that all? Is Senior Brother really that kind of person? Countless questions swirled in Qing Zhiyi's mind.

How is Xiaoyezi doing?

"She's still unconscious; you can go check on her."

Little Yezi, so many people are worried about you and concerned about you. You must wake up soon.

"Thank you, Senior Brother/Brother Xiu."

"Junior Brother, you're back." The moment Xiu Qiyu and the others approached Ye Xiruo's room, Jue Chen, who was guarding inside, noticed them.

Jue Chen's figure almost transformed into a streak of white light as he swiftly flew down.

"Thank you, Senior Brother. These are my and Xiao Yezi's friends. They came to see Xiao Yezi."

"Juechen, it is an honor to meet you all."

"You're being too kind, senior."

This must be a powerful figure from the Heavenly Sword Sect. Even with his sword aura restrained, he still exudes a strong sense of oppression. Standing there, he seems more like a sword than a person.

"My sister-in-law is doing well."

That day, after the Holy Master and the Divine Master intervened, they were relieved, thinking that Xiao Yezi would be safe and sound. However, they never expected that Xiao Yezi would remain unconscious to this day.

"sorry."

Now, it seems they can't do anything except say those three words.

“You don’t need to blame yourself. Saving you was Xiao Yezi’s choice. As for what happened afterward, whether it was an accident or not, the Liu family father and son must pay the price.”

After Xiu Qiyu returned, Jue Chen quickly withdrew. He could roughly understand his junior brother's feelings. When Master brought back his second, fourth, and sixth junior brothers covered in blood, their feelings were exactly the same as his junior brother's.

A loved one suffers such an accident in a place they cannot see, with no chance of saving them.

The Holy Master was powerless to help his second junior brother with his injuries. Now, he is still powerless to help Ye Xiruo. This outcome is hard for anyone to accept.

Hopefully, things will take a turn for the better.

Entering Lingyun Peak is like entering another world; the pure spiritual energy and the fragrance of flowers are intoxicating.

Hua Rong and the others did not stay on Lingyun Peak for long and left soon.

Of course, they had already determined that Xiu Qiyu would not leave until Ye Xiruo recovered.

Liu Yi has committed countless evil deeds over the years, and after this incident, his crimes have come to a head. He has been expelled from the Haoqi Pavilion.

Liu Feng has been placed under house arrest by the Peak Master of Wangqi Peak, and the exact duration is still uncertain. However, it's clear to everyone that the Peak Master is being magnanimous. Liu Feng has offended both Xue Jun Hanxue Divine Master and Yue Ran Saint Master, and the fact that he hasn't been expelled from Wangqi Peak is already a testament to the Peak Master's magnanimity.

It's not hard to imagine what Liu Yi's fate will be in the future.

Elder Liu Yun was taken away by the people from the Punishment Hall.

The members of the Punishment Hall are impartial and only care about the rules of the sect. The consequences of Liu Yi's actions this time are enough to affect the future of the Righteousness Pavilion. Even if the sect leader doesn't say anything, they will definitely not show any mercy.

These messages were delivered to Xiu Qiyu by Xue Junhan the following morning.

These three people did indeed fall from heaven to hell, but compared to what they did, this punishment is nothing.

You'd better pray that Xiao Yezi is safe and sound, otherwise even if I go to hell, I will never let you go.

Xiu Qiyu crushed the communication stone in his hand and began practicing swordsmanship in the training ground that Ye Xiruo had specially left behind.

He practiced the basic sword moves over and over again, tirelessly, day in and day out for decades.

Having talent doesn't guarantee becoming a top expert; the most important thing is hard work.

After finishing his sword practice, Jue Chen sat down to meditate under the cherry blossom tree.

Inside the room, Ye Xiruo's soul was still struggling.

"System, how long have I been asleep?"

"Don't worry, a day has just passed in the outside world."

That's good.

"When will I be able to return to my body?"

"The answer remains the same: cultivate diligently. He is waiting for you; don't let him down."

Time passed day by day, and Ye Xiru remained peacefully asleep. Xiu Qiyu and Jue Chen settled down at Lingyun Peak.

Xiu Qiyu would spend two hours every day with Ye Xiruo, reminiscing about everything they had experienced over the years.

If Xiao Yezi doesn't wake up in a day, he will stay here all day.

If one day isn't enough, then try a month. If a month isn't enough, then try three months, five months, or even half a year.

Master Yue Ran had visited several times, but had not acted rashly.

Although he was a Saint Master, he had never experienced a second bloodline awakening and did not know how he could help Ye Xiruo.

As for sealing it, that's no longer possible.

Before the bloodline of a divine master awakens, it is indeed possible to seal it. Once the bloodline awakens, it is as if one has taken on the mission of a divine master, and can only move forward in the direction of destiny, unable to retreat, until death.

Not to mention, this is Ye Xiruo's second bloodline awakening.

Now, Ye Xiruo's true essence has reached the early stage of Mahayana. The only reason why such violent energy has not gone berserk is that her mental strength is large enough to suppress such power.

The temporary suppression did not cause any problems, but over time, Yue Ran was worried that Ye Xiruo's mental strength and soul might be affected.

"This is Divine Cleansing Dew. One drop a day will make her feel better."

Xiu Qiyu recognized at a glance that what Yue Ran held in her hand was the Cleansing Dew. No alchemist was unaware of the preciousness of the Cleansing Dew.

Even a single drop of Cleansing Dew could drive a high-level alchemist mad; this bottle contains at least thirty drops. Perhaps he truly misunderstood the Righteous Spirit Pavilion.
