Zuan also fell silent. In fact, he knew this all too well. The old man in the mountains truly lived up to his reputation as the king of assassins; that move just now was indeed fast and accurate.
He had a chance to save the Red Sun Dharma King, but he didn't. Instead, he took advantage of the moment when the Red Sun Dharma King's life was created to launch a sneak attack and successfully severely injured Yan Hua.
If it weren't for Yan Hua's strong physique and exceptional cultivation, anyone else would have already perished on the spot.
Even so, she had only delayed her death; it now seemed hopeless.
Zuan pondered his various skills, realizing that with his expertise in medicine and herbal medicine, he could refine some pills.
But this world has no vital energy, and the most precious things are things like Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, which have their limits in terms of medicinal efficacy and cannot treat her severe injuries.
He thought for a moment and then said, "How about I try to channel my internal energy into your body to help reconnect the broken meridians?"
Fireworks said coldly, "The other meridians are fine, but the heart meridian is extremely fragile. If you still had your previous cultivation, you could barely help me, but now we have both lost our supernatural powers. If your strength is even slightly off, your heart meridian will be shattered, and I will die even faster."
Zuan said irritably, "I'm trying to save you, can't you smile a little more? It's not nice to have such a long face."
"Did I ask you to save me?" Fireworks' words left him speechless.
Zuan frowned slightly. Yan Hua's personality was very changeable before, and even when she was the Spider Demon, her tone was never this harsh. Could it be that she was in a bad mood because she was about to die?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but comfort her: "You don't need to worry. Although this world doesn't have all sorts of supernatural abilities, there are still some tricks to martial arts. Your injuries may not be hopeless. As far as I know, the Duan family of Dali has a technique called One-Finger Divine Skill, which can bring back health even to the most severe injuries."
Fireworks had been treating him with a cold expression, but seeing that he was not angry at all and instead spoke gently, her eyes softened a little: "Dali is a long and arduous journey, and my current injuries obviously won't last long there, so you don't need to worry about it."
Zuan knew she was telling the truth; her injuries were clearly too much for the bumpy ride.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he gestured for the fireworks to be quiet. He heard a light footstep approaching.
He went behind the door and stood there warily.
Suddenly, the door burst open, and a cold glint appeared.
Zuan flicked it away; it turned out to be a sword.
The sword moved swiftly, like a gazelle leaping across a cliff, and in the blink of an eye, it thrust back, stabbing more than ten times.
With his cultivation level and vision, Zuan originally thought he could do whatever he wanted in this world, but he never expected that someone could use swordsmanship to such a level.
In the blink of an eye, he encountered danger several times, and after managing to escape in a sorry state, he suddenly exclaimed "Eh!"
Because he had clearly seen the swordsman's appearance, the long sword suddenly stopped, and a pair of beautiful eyes shone even brighter in the dim environment.
"Listen to the snow!" Zu An's voice held a hint of surprise.
The woman before him was dressed in white, her long hair flowing, and she exuded an otherworldly and ethereal aura.
The woman in white's previously calm eyes flickered with a subtle change: "It's you..."
She also noticed the fireworks on the bed next to her and suddenly showed a strange expression. What were two people, a man and a woman, doing here in the dark?
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, Zu An was particularly excited: "Tingxue, what are you doing here? What's your relationship with the Ancient Tomb Sect? You wouldn't happen to be... Little Dragon Girl, would you?"
At this point, his tone became somewhat strange. For some reason, he didn't want the other person to be Little Dragon Girl, even though that would be very helpful in completing the mission.
Tingxue shook her head slightly: "No, to be precise, the Little Dragon Girl you mentioned is my mother."
Zuan: "???"
fireworks:"???"
Tingxue's face showed a rare hint of embarrassment: "It's just the identity setting in this world. After I entered this trial world, I found that I had become their daughter."
Zuan suppressed a laugh: "Actually, we're pretty much the same..."
So he explained his and Fireworks' identities in this world.
“Guo Jing and Huang Rong… I’ve overheard them talking about them occasionally.” Tingxue couldn’t help but glance at Yanhua again. “So you’re Guo Xiang. I’ve heard Xiaolongnu say that you seem to have been pursuing Yang Guo.”
She was naturally not used to calling those two people "father" and "mother," after all, it was just a temporary identity for a trial.
Fireworks blushed: "That was the original Guo Xiang, what does it have to do with me! Cough cough..."
Her excited tone aggravated her internal injuries, causing her to cough involuntarily, splattering blood droplets all over the ground.
Tingxue asked in confusion, "How did you get such a serious injury?"
In her opinion, although this world has restricted supernatural abilities, given her knowledge, it certainly won't be weak in terms of martial arts.
"How dare you say that? Were those men attracted by you?" Fireworks realized that the stunning woman the Mongolians were talking about was most likely this guy.
Tingxue blinked, somewhat confused, and Zuan then explained it to her.
"So the woman they were calling for was me. I just thought they were too noisy, so I went out to hide for a while half a month ago, hoping to find out where you were. I didn't expect to come back and run into you instead of finding you when I went out." Tingxue suddenly realized.
Looking at her somewhat naive appearance, Zu'an thought that if Zhenjin knew that all the sweet words he had said over the past two weeks had gone to waste, he would probably be furious.
