"Help!"
Just as Chen Zhou was dazed and wondering if he had misheard, another cry for help came from afar.
It was my junior sister's voice!
Chen Zhou was convinced he hadn't misheard, so he immediately channeled his inner energy around his legs and rushed toward the source of the sound at top speed.
The sound came from a patch of grass, and when Chen Zhou arrived, he found the grass was trembling.
Chen Zhou quickly parted the grass and saw a stunningly beautiful face that he hadn't seen in a long time.
But at this moment, her stunningly beautiful face was covered in blood.
It was Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying lay quietly on the ground, her body covered in blood, her bright eyes fixed on Chen Zhou who had suddenly appeared.
But Jiang Ying couldn't say a word; her injuries were too severe. Only her bright, large eyes blinked.
"Junior Sister!" Chen Zhou shouted excitedly, rushing to Jiang Ying as fast as he could.
Jiang Ying was extremely weak and could only look at Chen Zhou with hope. Chen Zhou could do nothing about it; it was the first time he had ever seen his junior sister so badly injured.
Chen Zhou tried to use his true energy to heal Jiang Ying's wounds, especially a deep, crisscrossing wound on Jiang Ying's thigh that was constantly oozing blood.
However, the true energy was too aggressive, and when it touched Jiang Ying's wounds, it only aggravated them.
"Quick...quick...quick...run..."
Jiang Ying gripped Chen Zhou's arm tightly with one hand. She didn't want Chen Zhou to waste any more effort and wanted him to escape as soon as possible.
"No! I won't leave!" Chen Zhou shouted, then frantically searched his storage ring for the medicine that the Third Elder had prepared for him.
Soon, Chen Zhou found some bottles and jars of medicine.
However, as a cultivator, one can use one's true energy to regenerate flesh and blood and heal oneself from ordinary wounds.
There weren't many medicines in the Sword Cloud Sect. The Third Elder only gave Chen Zhou some common blood-stasis-removing and pain-relieving ointments.
There's nothing that can be used for Jiang Ying right now. The best solution is for Jiang Ying to use her own energy to heal herself.
Jiang Ying was still in the Qi Refining stage. She didn't have true qi in her body, only aura, but aura was far less powerful than true qi.
Chen Zhou was extremely helpless and could only watch as Jiang Ying's breath grew weaker and weaker.
"Elder Ren! Elder Ren! Do you have any ideas?" Elder Ren was the only person Chen Zhou could turn to for help.
However, at this moment, Ren Lao was still the same as before, without any urgency or tension, and was still lying with his legs crossed.
“The Princess of the Southern Kingdom returned to the Southern Kingdom a few days ago. She brought three cultivators from the Southern Kingdom with her on this trip. The speed couldn’t be this slow! This must be an illusion of the Great Dao of Mind Insight.”
Old Ren, looking completely unconcerned, slowly said that he believed it was all a lie.
"How could this be fake? Junior Sister's injuries are so serious! Can't you be a little more reliable at a critical moment!" Chen Zhou said angrily.
This was the first time Chen Zhou had spoken so angrily. Ren Lao's attitude and Jiang Ying's current state made it impossible for him to continue.
Ren Lao didn't say anything more, and the next moment he disappeared from the spot.
"Old Ren!"
Chen Zhou panicked when he saw that Ren Lao in his spiritual world had suddenly disappeared.
"What should I do..." Chen Zhou knelt on the spot, his hands covered in Jiang Ying's blood. Just then, a group of people appeared from behind the bushes.
The one leading them was actually the King of the Southern Kingdom!
The three people beside him were three cultivators from the Southern Kingdom.
Golden spear, holy halberd, imperial bow.
The king of the Southern Kingdom, who was at the head of the group, held a long sword in his hand, from which blood was dripping continuously.
Chen Zhou's pupils contracted; it was that sword that had wounded Jiang Ying!
Although we still don't know exactly what's going on, we do know for sure that the Southern Kingdom wants to kill Princess Jiang Ying!
"Quick...quick...run...ah..." Jiang Ying's eyes widened in terror when she saw the four people who suddenly appeared, and she spoke with all her might.
Chen Zhou hugged Jiang Ying tightly, his gaze resolute.
“I don’t know what makes you want to kill your own daughter. I disagree.”
After saying that, Chen Zhou picked up Jiang Ying and stood up.
If we must fight, then let's fight!
"Young man, you must be the champion of this year's sect competition of the Sword Cloud Sect, right? Don't meddle in other people's business. This is a matter between us in the Southern Kingdom. We have no right to interfere!"
The King of the Southern Kingdom spoke, and then pointed his long sword at Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou remained unwavering.
"I will not hand her over to you!"
"Then prepare to die! Don't think that just because you're a disciple of the Sword Cloud Sect, I won't dare to touch you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three cultivators from the Southern Kingdom stood in a row in front of the King of the Southern Kingdom.
A ring of true energy slowly rose around the three of them.
Battle is imminent.
In terms of strength, Chen Zhou was no match for the four people in front of him, so he had no intention of fighting them. The small confinement array was activated instantly and spun rapidly under the four people's feet.
Minor Imprisonment Array!
Chen Zhou pinned all his hopes on the Minor Imprisonment Array, grabbed Jiang Ying, and started running.
Chen Zhou had never felt so disheveled. He had to get his junior sister away from here!
The four were far weaker than Chen Zhou, and the Minor Imprisonment Array was just a very simple array that couldn't imprison them at all. As soon as Chen Zhou turned around, they broke through the Minor Imprisonment Array.
A golden spear stood upright in front of Chen Zhou.
They blocked Chen Zhou's path.
Immediately afterwards, a golden arrow appeared to float above the golden spear.
The arrow was pointing directly at Chen Zhou.
