Lin Xu sent Qi Ziyan back to his residence and applied medicine on his wounds.
During this process, Qi Ziyan remained silent.
Although Lin Xu wanted to talk to him, he couldn't disturb him in this situation, so after he finished all these, he stood up and said to him: "Take a good rest first, don't think too much."
He naturally noticed that something was wrong with Qi Ziyan.
After all, the two of them have been together for many years, so he naturally knows what kind of personality this junior brother has.
To be honest, Qi Ziyan regretted saying those words to Junior Sister on the way back. After all, his cultivation could not keep up with everyone else, which was his own problem. He could only blame himself for his dullness. What did it have to do with others? How could he blame his Senior Brother and Junior Sister for this matter?
But he couldn't control himself because of everyone's behind-the-scenes belittlement and ridicule, which affected his mood. He began to distrust himself and fell into self-doubt.
As soon as Lin Xu came out of Qi Ziyan's house, he saw Xiao Lingyu and others walking towards him.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Xu was a little surprised to see them.
I didn't expect them to follow me.
Xiao Lingyu replied: "We are worried about our second senior brother, so we wanted to come and have a look."
Originally they didn't come with them, but they felt that there was something wrong with Qi Ziyan, so they changed their minds and wanted to come over to take a look.
After hearing this, Lin Xu pondered for a moment, then said, "You guys go back first and let him calm down."
Hearing his words, several people looked at each other.
What does he mean by this?
Xiao Lingyu was the most impatient. She had questions in her mind that she had to find out clearly. Moreover, Qi Ziyan was her biological senior brother, so she was naturally very worried about him.
So she asked, "Big Brother, what happened to Second Brother?"
"Your second brother is fine, don't worry."
Lin Xu didn't want to talk too much to them at this moment.
He was unwilling to say it, and Xiao Lingyu didn't want to force him, so he just said, "Then we'll come to visit Second Senior Brother next time."
Since Lin Xu told them not to disturb Qi Ziyan, everyone had to go back.
However, in the next few days, Xiao Lingyu and the others were busy with the competition, so they had no time to visit him.
The competition lasted for twelve days in total, and the twenty places to go to the Qingcheng Secret Realm were selected, including Xiao Lingyu, Song Zhi and others.
After the competition, Xiao Lingyu finally had time to visit Qi Ziyan.
When she arrived at Qi Ziyan's residence, she found him sitting in the yard in a daze.
"Second Brother, how is your recovery going?"
Xiao Lingyu walked towards him with a smile.
Hearing this, Qi Ziyan looked up at her and said, "My injuries have almost recovered. Thank you for your concern, Junior Sister."
"That's good." Xiao Lingyu felt relieved after hearing that.
"By the way, Junior Sister, how come you have time to come here today? But the competition is over?"
Xiao Lingyu replied: "Well, the competition ended yesterday afternoon."
"Then I guess Junior Sister and Junior Brother Song should have secured a place to enter the Qingcheng Secret Realm, right?"
Qi Ziyan has been recovering from his injuries these days, so he is not clear about the results of the competition.
However, he felt that with Xiao Lingyu and Song Zhi's strength, they should be able to enter the top 20.
Xiao Lingyu was just about to answer that both she and Song Zhi had obtained the quota to enter the Qingcheng Secret Realm, but then she suddenly remembered that her second senior brother was the only one among them who did not obtain a quota, so she hesitated.
She was worried that her second senior brother would feel uncomfortable when he learned that everyone except her could go to the Qingcheng Secret Realm.
But this kind of thing cannot be hidden. After all, it is not a secret. Even if she doesn't say it, he will know it sooner or later.
After thinking it through, Xiao Lingyu answered his questions honestly.
"Senior Brother Song and I both made it into the top 20 in this competition."
In fact, many of the top 20 disciples were old acquaintances of theirs, such as Senior Sister Qiao and the others, but there was no need to tell him about these one by one.
Qi Ziyan heard this and said, "Congratulations to you guys."
Fearing that he would feel bad, Xiao Lingyu said, "In fact, the reason why I was able to get this spot was not entirely due to my own strength, but because my Water Soft Sword allowed me to exert strength far beyond my own, which is why I was lucky enough to win against the senior brother who fought against me."
Although Xiao Lingyu said these words to comfort Qi Ziyan, she knew in her heart that this was the truth. If she didn't use other things, she would not be able to make it into the top 20 based on her own strength.
However, the competition only stipulated that no external force could be used, but her Shuirou Sword was her life-saving magic weapon, so she could use it.
The Shuirou Sword is a top-grade spiritual weapon, while the spiritual sword of her senior brother who fought against her is only a mid-grade spiritual weapon.
The two of them had similar cultivation levels, and the other party had more combat experience than her. If it weren't for the fact that her Water Soft Sword was of a higher grade than the other party's spiritual sword, she would definitely not be able to defeat the other party.
Generally speaking, the power bestowed by a magical weapon has a lot to do with its own grade. The higher the grade of the magical weapon, the higher the strength of the cultivator that can be improved. This is why the higher the grade of the magical weapon, the more expensive it is.
"No matter what, this is your strength, Junior Sister."
Qi Ziyan didn't think so.
Although she did win the match because of her natal spirit sword, this is also part of her strength.
Just as the two were talking, a paper crane suddenly flew in the sky.
The paper crane seemed to be alive. It flew down from the sky and landed on Qi Ziyan's shoulder.
Xiao Lingyu and Qi Ziyan did not find this phenomenon strange, because this was the most common way of sending messages in the world of cultivation, sending messages by paper cranes!
To make a paper crane deliver a message, all you have to do is apply spiritual power to it, then speak to it the words you want to convey and the person you want to deliver the message to, and the paper crane will automatically fly to the hand of the person you want to deliver the message to.
However, compared to using paper cranes to send messages, using communication jade slips is more convenient and safer, because the paper cranes sending messages may be intercepted by people on the way.
However, cultivators with lower cultivation levels cannot intercept the paper cranes that carry messages from cultivators with higher cultivation levels than themselves.
Qi Ziyan reached out and touched the paper crane, only to see it suddenly turn into a ray of light and disappear. At the same time, a voice appeared in his mind.
"Zi Yan, come to my place."
Qi Ziyan was familiar with this voice; it was the voice of his master, Sect Leader Xiao.
"Second brother, who sent you the message?" Xiao Lingyu asked curiously when he saw this.
Qi Ziyan replied: "It's the master, he asked me to come over."
Hearing that it was his father who asked Qi Ziyan to go over, Xiao Lingyu did not bother him anymore. Instead, he said very considerately, "Since father asked you to go over, then you should go over earlier. Don't keep father waiting for too long."
Having said that, she was about to leave so as not to waste his time.
"Okay." Qi Ziyan nodded.
The master asked him to go through, so he couldn't keep the master waiting too long.
