Yin Yue chuckled softly upon hearing this. He glanced at his master, knowing that his master was "equal" yet also "greedy" and would not choose anyone.
Looking at the densely packed group of people Xie Jiuchuan had brought, and then at himself, he only had a few hundred helpers.
He knew then that today was not the best opportunity to seize his master.
therefore.
The man, with his exquisitely handsome features and youthful charm, but with a hint of fierceness between his brows, suddenly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.
"Alright, then Master, you should go back with them quickly."
Xi Xingxue: ? ? !
Hearing this, He Yan and Xie Jiuchuan were both taken aback for a moment, and then their wary gazes turned to Yin Yue.
Hopefully, this kid isn't holding back a big surprise.
"Then, Master, please come home with me."
A smile appeared on Xie Jiuchuan's usually expressionless face, making his long, narrow phoenix eyes even more striking.
He walked straight up to Xi Xingxue, extended a hand towards him, bent down slightly, looked at the person in front of him at eye level, and smiled broadly.
That hand was large and beautiful, long and with distinct joints, and its movements were indescribably elegant and devout.
Xi Xingxue looked at him.
The dragon horns on Xie Jiuchuan's head added a touch of sharpness to his perfect appearance. He still had the familiar feel and look, and did not make him feel unfamiliar.
A surge of intense emotion flickered in his eyes, threatening to scorch Xi Xingxue.
Beneath his seemingly calm face was a heart pounding wildly with fervent joy at Xi Xingxue's awakening.
Xi Xingxue placed her hand on Xie Jiuchuan's hand.
He could feel Xie Jiuchuan's hand tremble, and he could also feel Yin Yue's venomous and chilling gaze falling on their clasped hands.
Xi Xingxue coughed lightly: "I'll be going now, see you later."
Inner monologue: You regret turning evil now that you've taken the tonic!
Yin Yue nodded and smiled brightly: "Goodbye, Master."
...........
Taiqing Sect.
A gentle breeze swayed the branches, stirring up the sweltering heat, and a constant rustling sound filled the treetops.
However, the temperature at the summit remains pleasant, like spring all year round.
Xi Xingxue leaned against the soft couch, her legs lazily crossed, a few strands of her long black hair hanging down, half-hidden.
He tilted his head slightly, revealing a beautiful face that was both aloof and serene.
His languidness and indifference blended together, exuding unparalleled charm, while the surrounding scenery became mere backdrops.
"Jiuchuan".
He shouted.
The next moment.
"Master."
The young man understood and skillfully fed him a grape.
Xi Xingxue swallowed, and the sweet juice burst in her mouth. There were no skins or seeds; everything was already peeled.
After finishing the grape, he was completely full. The warm sunlight poured down, and the satisfied man felt sleepy.
They curled up together and took a short nap.
As He Yan walked in slowly, he took in these scenes.
Looking at Xi Xingxue, who was curled up and sleeping on the couch.
He curled his lips into a slight smile.
"Master... looks like a cat."
Xie Jiuchuan smiled and did not confront his rival because of her appearance.
Because he also agrees with this statement.
only......
The two of them looked at Xi Xingxue with slightly worried and confused eyes.
“Master has been increasingly drowsy lately, his spiritual energy is depleted, and his little nascent soul is also listless.”
Strictly speaking, Xi Xingxue has woken up, but his physical condition is still very bad. His damaged dantian is like shattered glass, full of cracks.
There was no spiritual energy at all, and even the awakened nascent soul seemed to have been punched awake, forced to wake up.
Elder Danfeng said.
At this rate, their master will eventually catch a cold and die from it.
If you bleed, the wound won't heal on its own; you'll bleed to death.
Even a sneeze can cause a heart attack, leading to heart failure and death.
With each word the elder uttered about death, Xie Jiuchuan and He Yan felt a sharper pang in their hearts.
For ten days and ten nights, they did not close their eyes, searching through all the classic texts in the cultivation world, but they still could not find a solution.
They were shocked and distressed, feeling utterly lost and confused. They wished they could transfer all their ailments to them, but... that method didn't work either.
He Yan said softly, "The method is determined by people. I have one last way to save Master."
Xie Jiuchuan looked up at him: "What method?"
His bloodshot eyes made the usually handsome young man look very haggard.
He Yan wasn't in much better shape; his smooth, fair face had a faint layer of stubble on his delicate chin.
He said in a deep voice, "Kill your master first."
"Are you crazy?" Xie Jiuchuan's voice cracked.
The wind rustled through the trees, lifting the hems of their clothes. Amidst the quiet yet chaotic sounds, He Yan spoke, word by word:
"Then I will nourish the Spirit Gathering Banner with my flesh and blood, cut my meridians, offer my soul to it, and transform my primordial spirit into the last bit of spiritual power to protect it forever."
This last item was also He Yan's little personal desire.
This method will cause him to vanish into the heavens forever, and the last trace of his spiritual power remaining beside his master will be his legacy.
He will never have the chance to love his master again.
But I hope Master will not forget him, otherwise, he will truly disappear.
Xie Jiuchuan stared at He Yan in silence for a long time.
After a long pause, he suddenly chuckled softly: "If this is going to be done, then let's do it together."
"With the combined support of both of us, the chances of a new Master being born will be much greater."
This forbidden technique is incredibly powerful, but also extremely cruel, and the chances of success are slim.
