As the night deepened, dark clouds slowly moved in, covering the moon in the sky. The earth, which had originally had a faint glow, suddenly became pitch black.
Soon, a drizzle of rain began to fall.
Ma Susu tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She wondered whether to escape. Her master was clearly angry with her, having ignored her for the past three days. If she returned to the sect, her master would report this to the leader, and she would surely be severely punished. She now understood that the Divine Doctor Family was more powerful than she had imagined, and even the Ghost Doctor Sect wouldn't dare provoke them.
Thinking of this, Ma Susu glanced at Li Zixuan on the bed opposite, and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, she got up, walked down the bed quietly, and tiptoed towards the door.
Before she reached the door, a sharp pain suddenly rose from Ma Susu's body and quickly spread to her entire body.
Ma Susu broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and screamed in pain.
Li Zixuan hadn't fallen asleep in the first place. She knew when Ma Susu got up, but she pretended to be asleep and didn't know. Ma Susu had offended Su Jinyue this time. If the sect leader knew about it, he would definitely punish her severely. So she thought it was better for Susu to leave. As for the master, she had to admit her mistake, because Susu was her most beloved junior sister.
Hearing Ma Susu's scream, Li Zixuan quickly stood up, rushed to Ma Susu, and helped her up from the ground. "Susu, what's wrong with you? Where does it hurt? Tell me quickly." How could Susu be like this?
"My whole body aches... It's like countless knives are cutting my body... Zixuan... Go find Master quickly... I don't want to die..." Ma Susu cried out. This pain really made her want to die.
"I'll help you lie on the bed first, and then I'll go find the master." Li Zixuan helped Ma Susu to the bed and ran quickly to the next room.
Qu Yanqiu was practicing when he heard someone knocking on the door urgently. He came out of his practice, stood up, and opened the door.
"Master, Susu doesn't know what's wrong with her. She's in pain all over. Please go and take a look." Li Zixuan was so anxious that tears were about to flow. She and Susu had known each other for almost four years, and their relationship had always been good. She really didn't want Susu to get hurt.
Qu Yanqiu nodded and walked quickly towards Li Zixuan and the others' room. She had figured it out over the past few days. If Su Jinyue really wanted to pursue the matter, she would have done so long ago. There was no way she would have let Susu leave.
She ignored Susu, just wanting her to remember this lesson and not make the same mistake again. As Han Yiyuan said, there are many people in this world who are better than her, and you don't have to be so lucky forever.
Walking into the room and seeing Ma Susu's face pale with pain, Qu Yanqiu quickly walked up to Ma Susu, took her hand and inserted a trace of her internal energy into her, wanting to see what was going on. However, as soon as her internal energy entered Ma Susu's body, it was bounced back by a powerful force.
Qu Yanqiu only felt a pain in his chest and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Master!" Li Zixuan supported Qu Yanqiu worriedly.
Qu Yanqiu shook her head, "I'm fine." She was filled with shock and fear. She had been injured by a powerful force within Su Su's body. Needless to say, that mysterious and powerful force must have been left behind by Su Jinyue, who was several times more powerful than she had imagined. Fortunately, Su Jinyue hadn't held the Ghost Doctor Sect accountable for this, otherwise their sect would have been doomed.
But think about it, Susu was after Su Jinyue's husband, and Su Jinyue was already showing mercy by not taking Susu's life.
Qu Yanqiu took out a pill and put it in his mouth, and the dull pain in his chest eased a little.
"Master, why is Susu like this?" Li Zixuan asked when she saw that Qu Yanqiu's complexion looked better.
Qu Yanqiu sighed deeply. "There's a mysterious power within her. I was just injured by that power. Even if Susu doesn't die, it's impossible for her to cultivate again in this lifetime." She wasn't sure what effect that power would have on Susu, but with that power within her, it was definitely impossible for her to cultivate. This was her own fault, so she couldn't blame anyone else.
Li Zixuan looked at Ma Susu with a hint of regret in her eyes. Junior Sister Susu's cultivation aptitude was the best among Master's disciples. It was such a pity that she couldn't cultivate.
After a full hour of pain, the pain in Ma Susu's body gradually eased. She looked at Qu Yanqiu, "Master...what's wrong with me..." She now had no strength at all.
Qu Yanqiu shook her head, unsure what to say. If Susu knew she couldn't cultivate, she would be devastated. But she also knew that this matter would have to be brought up sooner or later.
"Zixuan, tell her." Qu Yanqiu walked to the window and looked at the drizzling rain outside. She felt extremely depressed. How could she be in a good mood when her favorite disciple became a useless person?
Ma Susu looked at Li Zixuan.
Li Zixuan sighed, then slowly said, "Susu, you may not be able to practice anymore in the future."
"What?!" Ma Susu shook her head in disbelief, "Are you kidding me?" What should she do in the future if she can't practice?
"Susu, don't be sad. Even if you can't practice, Master and I will take care of you," Li Zixuan consoled her. If she were unable to practice, she would also be deeply devastated.
Ma Susu shook her head, tears streaming down her face. After a long while, she slowly calmed down and looked at Li Zixuan and Qu Yanqiu, "Master, Zixuan, can you please leave? I want to be alone for a while."
Li Zixuan looked at Qu Yanqiu, Qu Yanqiu nodded, and the two walked outside.
Ma Susu stared blankly ahead, thinking about what had happened before, her heart filled with regret. If she could do it again, she would definitely not provoke Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, but there were not so many ifs in this world.
Su Jinyue was chatting with Bai Lina, Qu Yingli and Qin Youyou in the yard when a disciple walked over quickly.
"Your Highness, Sect Master Jin Yue! Chairman Wei of the Alchemist Association is here to visit."
Su Jinyue nodded, "I understand." Within a few days of her return, news of her return spread throughout the Tianyue Continent. Sects kept coming to visit, most of them apologizing for not being able to help them when the Fengtian Sect attacked them. However, she didn't blame them. After all, Feng Heng was too powerful for them to resist.
"I'll go over there." Su Jinyue looked at Bai Lina and the other two.
"Yeah." Bai Lina, Qu Yingli and Qin Youyou nodded.
