Xiyin led the last seven cultivators to the side. These seven were also covered in wounds, with no part of their bodies unharmed.
"Fellow Daoists, did you all come all the way from where we parted ways?" Xi Yin summoned her magical artifact, using her sword to carry the group as she flew, and asked.
Ruan Su nodded and then shook her head: "After we separated from you, we actually headed south, but we were chased and beaten by a group of nameless cultivators, so we had no choice but to go north. After we got rid of that group, we were tied up by a group of peak Nascent Soul cultivators. We finally escaped, but then we encountered a monster tide."
Having fled for my life, I originally planned to jump off the cliff and use the last of my strength to escape on my sword, and then I encountered you all.
The others echoed this sentiment, agreeing that it was indeed true.
Yang Yu from Echo Valley burst into tears, choking out, "Senior Brother Song Yan has been protecting us all this way, but even so, he couldn't protect everyone. Many people crushed their jade tokens and left."
We were able to get this far because of our high level of cultivation, our ability to withstand pressure, and our not-so-burdenful behavior.
Xiao Huaisheng of the Xuanwu Sect also said, "That's right, many of Senior Brother Song's fellow disciples have also gone missing, and several of them have crushed their jade tokens and left."
"By the way, isn't that Senior Sister Wei? How did you run into them? They look so powerful, they can even control beasts... Wait, that white dragon?" Ruan Su pointed to a mountain in front of her and exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone else looked over and saw a dragon, its body shimmering with white light, flying alongside Wei Wenru.
Everyone: ...We actually forgot about that!!
We got so caught up in the gossip that we forgot there was a majestic and imposing white dragon here. But Senior Sister Wei's aura was so powerful that it was easy to overlook the people around her.
Senior Brother Song, how could he have been so foolish as to do something like that? Even though he was desperate to save someone…
But that's not the way to do it.
"It's also our fault. We didn't keep an eye on Ruan Qianqian when she did that. Senior Brother Song was injured so badly while protecting us..." Ruan Su lowered her head in shame, looking guilty and full of regret.
The others remained silent; Senior Brother Song was truly too strong...
Wei Wenru also felt the strange looks these people were giving her, but she ignored them and just sped up.
“Senior sister, those birds and beasts must have come to celebrate Feng Xu’s birth, but they accidentally ran into Senior Brother and the others.” Nian Wanzhou didn’t know how to explain to Song Yan, so she only told her the reason for the incident.
The rest...
Senior Brother, you'd better get up and explain yourself!
Your junior colleagues can't explain this for you; good luck to you.
Upon hearing this, Wei Wenru paused, then glanced at Nian Wanzhou, and then turned to look at Song Yan.
"Okay, I understand. Keep an eye on the people behind you, don't let those cultivators catch up." Wei Wenru didn't seem to care much, even though she was initially very angry.
But upon reflection, Song Yan was not the kind of frivolous and ill-mannered person one might expect.
There was a reason for this, so for now, we should take the person to a safe place to treat their injuries. She could understand the rest and would wait for Song Yan to explain.
As for those cultivators at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage...
Let's ignore it for now. If they come after us again, don't blame her and Wanwan for being ruthless.
She completely ignored Ruan Qianqian, not taking her seriously, no matter how cunning Ruan Qianqian was.
Wei Wenru trusts Song Yan. After all, they have spent hundreds of years together and nearly twenty years of companionship. She would never question or blame him immediately.
The incident happened so suddenly that none of the group of people had time to react.
When I came to my senses, I realized...
Xiyin: So they were facing a flock of birds and beasts!
Ruan Su: So they were saved by the White Dragon! Speaking of which, I didn't see Senior Sister Wei make a move. Could it be that Senior Sister Wei is already incredibly powerful, and her attacks are either fatal or severely injured?
Ruan Qianqian: The man I set my sights on has flown away!
The group, still in a daze, arrived at a safe open space. Song Yan was placed on a soft carpet by Wei Wenru for treatment, while the others sat aside and waited.
The carpet was found in Nian Wanzhou's storage ring.
Nan Yu also took out some pills and distributed them to the others, but not to Ruan Qianqian.
This was Nian Wanzhou's intention. She stood at a distance, not too far away, with her paws folded, watching and occasionally flying around to patrol.
This infuriated Ruan Qianqian so much that her face turned black to her feet.
After taking the pills, everyone's spiritual power and strength recovered significantly, and even showed signs of increasing.
This is a top-grade healing pill, many times more powerful than ordinary healing pills. Nan Yu recently refined it, and it has finally come in handy.
"The spiritual energy here is plentiful. Everyone, hurry up and use up all the spells in your bodies to restore your vitality and spiritual energy," Ruan Su urged.
Along the way, apart from Wei Wenru and her group, everyone else suffered serious injuries of varying degrees and needed immediate treatment. Otherwise, they would likely be eliminated immediately.
"Alright!" Everyone responded and immediately began to meditate, absorbing the rich spiritual energy in this secret realm to quickly restore their spiritual power.
Song Yan lay motionless on the carpet, as if he were unconscious.
But only he himself knew what emotions were churning inside him at that moment. He was too tired to wake up, yet his mind was perfectly clear.
Wei Wenru has not said a word so far, silently healing his wounds.
He could even sense the other person's worry for him, as well as their unspoken care.
It's just that I went a little too far...
Song Yan closed his eyes, feeling something about to spill from the corner of his mouth. He desperately suppressed it, not wanting to show his vulnerability.
It hurts so much.
Finally, it was over, but Song Yan still couldn't open his eyes and just fell asleep.
Poor Song Yan hadn't had a good night's sleep for days. After resting, he was constantly being chased and ambushed. Finally, Wei Wenru and the others arrived, and he could finally get some rest.
Xiyin and her two fellow disciples looked at the pills that Nanyu shared with smiles, and several heads huddled together to study them.
And Nian Wanzhou...
At such a young age, she has taken on a great responsibility, protecting everyone's safety.
With her around, and her few little followers like Linghu, no spirit beasts or demon beasts dare to approach her casually. That bloodline suppression is truly terrifying.
"It's only been five days since we entered, and most of the people have already left. The rest, including us, haven't managed to get anything good... This secret realm is truly not to be underestimated!"
"Yes, it's much more profound than the previous secret realms. It truly lives up to its reputation as a secret realm that only opens once every hundred years."
"You still have things to pick up, but my cultivation level is neither high nor low. I haven't picked up anything since I came in. I've only been busy running for my life. Damn it, I've even used up most of the life-saving talismans and magical artifacts that my master prepared for me."
"Me too... I picked up those spiritual plants that were scattered all over the ground, but I don't know if they're usable."
