Yan Zhi was extremely cautious throughout the journey, fearing that someone might discover her and cause her trouble. Fortunately, the journey was relatively safe. Ji Yaocen wandered outside for half the night. When she saw the riot on the snow mountain, she thought it was Xu Yuehuai fighting against Quan Cang. She wanted to go and help, but by the time she arrived, the scene was over. There were many dead and injured, but the body of the culprit, Quan Cang, was nowhere to be found.
Ji Yaocen tried to find Xu Yuehuai among the group, but found no trace of her. Instead, she found the seriously injured Xuan Chi behind another wall. She recognized Xuan Chi. Looking to the side, she also saw Nangong Yu and Shangguan Xi, both of whom were prominent figures in the team.
Ji Yaocen discovered that Xuan Chi was still alive. Seeing his severely injured state, she assumed the other two were in the same condition. When she went forward to give them a pill, she discovered that they were already dead. Their bodies were cold, and snowflakes kept falling on them, almost covering their bodies.
Ji Yaocen was somewhat shocked that Shangguan Xi and Nangong Yu had died just like that. She was stunned for a while. When she came to her senses, she first rescued Xuan Chi, moved him into the house, lit a fire, and treated his wounds.
Nangong Yu and Shangguan Xi, who were outside, also moved into the house. She wanted to take these people away, so she could only put the two of them in her space. Although it was a bit cramped, it was at least a way to bring the whole bodies back. As for the others at the scene, Ji Yaocen glanced at them coldly. After not seeing any familiar faces in the room, she turned and left.
This group of people will naturally be dealt with by others; it's not her place to worry about them. Besides, these people are of high status, and she can't afford to worry about them.
Their job is simply to take the people from Qingtao Valley away.
When Ji Yaocen returned, the people of Qingtao Valley had already received the news and planned to rush out to help everyone fight against Quan Cang. They looked down on Xu Yuehuai's decision to go out alone, but they would not do anything foolish in the face of matters of principle.
But before she even stepped out the door, she ran into Ji Yaocen, who was supporting a man. "What's going on here?"
"No need to go. It's over. Most of them are dead. Someone will take care of them," Ji Yaocen said indifferently, not caring about the lives of these few people at all, as if she were talking about something unimportant.
When the others heard these words, their expressions froze for a moment, especially when Ji Yaocen released the two corpses. Everyone fell silent at that moment, as if water was flowing in the air, telling of the sorrow of the moment.
"How did they die? Why did they die?" The First Elder and Nangong Yu were also very affectionate. They had raised the brat for so many years, and suddenly he was gone. It was inevitable that they would feel sad and upset. The Third Elder had long predicted that this day would come. Although he had predicted this, the sadness in his heart was real.
Her hands trembled as she looked at the children lying on the ground, unsure whether she should cry or silently handle their funeral arrangements. "I don't know how they died. When I arrived, they were already like this. There were only the three of them there, so I brought all three of them back."
"Where are Fu Ziyi and Baili Xiuwen?"
Where is Xu Yuehuai?
...
Zisangyi and the Fifth Elder stepped forward, showing great concern for the matter. Zisangyi was filled with regret for not going out because of his cowardice, and now he didn't even know whether his disciple was alive or dead. His heart was pounding. If he received news of Xu Yuehuai's death at this moment, he could die in an instant.
Ji Yaocen spoke frankly, without any attempt to comfort anyone.
Zisangyi and the Fifth Elder both breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of joy in their eyes. "For now, no news is the best news."
The other side was completely pale.
Although Quan Cang did not die, he was seriously injured. He had been stabbed in the back by Xu Yuehuai and had also expended so much energy fighting against those reckless people. In order to finish the battle quickly, he fought very fast and did not give these people any chance to react. However, there are far more sects and factions in this world than these people. These are just the tip of the iceberg. Therefore, after killing these people, he had to leave this place immediately to ensure that he would not be captured.
Quan Cang clutched his wound, a sinister glint in his eyes. "Damn it, these people should all die. So stubborn and inflexible, they should have been dead long ago."
"He even injured me. Very well, I will repay this debt a thousandfold." Quan Cang possesses so much power; he could be invincible if he simply did things properly. But he chooses not to, and instead chooses to take some crooked and evil paths.
Yan Zhi led Xu Yuehuai back to the sect. The sect was on full alert. When Linghu Zhou saw someone coming, he immediately became vigilant. "Someone is coming, everyone be careful! Although this place hasn't been damaged yet, we need to be even more careful."
In an instant, countless quivers were aimed at Xu Yuehuai and Yan Zhi. If they sensed anything amiss, they would all be shot down at Linghu Zhou's command.
But Linghu Zhou suddenly saw a familiar hem of his clothes. "Wait! It looks like Yan Zhi is back."
Everyone knows Yan Zhi, that talkative and quirky little girl. So when she said that, everyone was happy to see that place, and found that it was really true.
Yan Zhi was a little tired from the journey. She dared not rest, fearing that if she did, Quan Cang would catch up. She wanted Xu Yuehuai to live, so she had to hurry, otherwise Xu Yuehuai's fate would only lead to death.
Upon seeing Linghu Zhou, Yan Zhi didn't even have time for a proper reunion. "Where's my master? Quickly, ask my master to save her! She's dying!"
Yan was panting, but she put Xu Yuehuai down very gently.
The elder had already heard the commotion and walked over unhurriedly, with some confusion in his eyes. When they reached the door, the elder glanced at the ground and immediately realized that the person in front of him had an extraordinary destiny, so extraordinary that he couldn't even figure out what had happened.
It's impossible to tell what kind of past this girl has.
"Master, please save her!" Yan Zhi noticed that her master had been distracted for a moment and kindly reminded him. The elder began to check on Xu Yuehuai's condition and found that her injuries could not be described as serious.
It's a miracle that he's still alive, with a broken right wrist, broken ribs, cracked foot bones, and blood pooling in his internal organs.
