If Bo Qiu doesn't take action, it's fine, but when he does, the scene is terrifying.
On the other side of the street, Nie Yanchen, Chu Qiurong and others were originally gathered together to drink and rest. When they saw the red light that suddenly filled the sky, they thought that some enemy had come to visit them again. They were so scared that they rushed over without even settling the bill.
When Nie Yanchen and his group hurriedly arrived at the scene, there were already quite a few people gathered there, including disciples covered in snow and many vendors.
Fortunately, although the scene looked chaotic, he did not see any panic or fear on these people's faces, which meant that things were not as bad as he had imagined.
Chu Qiurong grabbed a disciple from Jixue and asked, "What happened just now?"
"Second Brother?"
The disciple called out in surprise, then pointed to the center of the crowd, "They said that Senior Sister has captured a few Yuqing spies and is awaiting their fate."
"Senior Sister?"
In order to make things easier, Ji Xue only brought a few female medical teachers who were responsible for healing with him on this training trip. Therefore, when Nie Yanchen heard this person's words, he immediately had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Which senior sister?"
He continued to ask questions, but this time the disciple didn't need to answer, because as he asked, he saw the familiar figure from the gap in the crowd.
"Tu Nian!?"
It wasn't hard to tell that Nie Yanchen's voice was mixed with anger, surprise, and disbelief... Well, maybe the latter two accounted for a smaller proportion, but Tu Nian thought it was harmless.
"surprise!"
Considering that the Taoists who practiced Taoism probably wouldn't understand her arrogant English, Tu Nian chose to greet Nie Yanchen in the simplest way, with her mouth grinning flatteringly, as if reaching her ears.
"Surprise? You, you..."
Nie Yanchen was considered young in mentality, but not enough to buy into this. He pointed his finger at Tu Nian, his chest heaving repeatedly. He opened his mouth several times but didn't know where to start cursing. His conflicted look even looked a little funny.
Fortunately, Chu Qiurong was not a conservative person after all. Nie Yanchen had done this kind of thing of sneaking out of the sect many times before, and he was already used to it, so he was able to remain rational in such a situation.
After struggling to squeeze through the crowd, he patted Nie Yanchen on the shoulder and whispered, "Master, calm down. At least give Junior Sister some face."
Following Chu Qiurong's gesture, Nie Yanchen looked around. Indeed, many disciples who didn't know the truth were gathered here and watching. If she really scolded Tu Nian in front of them, she would not be able to stand in front of these children in the future.
Tu Nian had very good ears. When he heard Chu Qiurong joining in, he immediately showed his sympathy at the right time.
"Master, I'm injured." She said, taking off her red clothes.
"hiss--"
Chu Qiurong couldn't help but gasp, and Xu Ziqiao, who was following him, shouted angrily: "Who did this!"
Nie Yanchen's reaction wasn't that exaggerated, but looking at his furrowed brows, one could tell that his mood wasn't any better.
Xiao Yunxiang's attack was intended to take her life. The wounds were bloody, and some of the more serious ones even tore open the skin on both sides. Tu Nian had been wrapped in Bo Qiu's coat, so it was not visible. Now that the coat was lifted, the wounds on her body were immediately exposed.
It is conceivable that if there were not a few doctors and medicine practitioners among the surrounding disciples who helped her heal her injuries, she would have been rolling on the ground in pain by now.
Pointing at the three people lying in the distance with no one paying attention to them, Tu Nian said aggrievedly, "Aren't they the ones?"
Nie Yanchen and the others only then saw Yuqing's ignorant cultivators. Chu Qiurong was furious after recognizing them at a glance, "Xiao Yunxiang, that bastard!"
"It's him!"
Xu Ziqiao's reaction seemed even greater than his. He pointed at the small-eyed male cultivator beside Xiao Yunxiang, his eyes blazing with fire. "I remember it clearly. It was this man who poisoned the silver needles and plotted against me that day. He was also the one who instigated that woman to imprison me in the Yuqing dungeon."
"Alright, you two, we'll talk about the rest later. The most important thing right now is to heal Xiao Si's injuries."
Nie Yanchen had always treated Tu Nian as his own daughter. Seeing her covered in scars, his heart trembled with pain.
It took a lot of effort to resist the urge to forgive Tu Nian right then and there and take her back to take good care of her. He glared at her fiercely and turned to Chu Qiurong beside him and said, "Tell Shan Cangzi to wait in my room."
Chu Qiurong didn't dare to delay and went to deliver the message like the wind.
Immediately, Nie Yanchen sent away the disciples around him, and compensated the affected vendors with some spirit stones, and then prepared to take Tu Nian away.
"Master."
Tu Nian, who was held horizontally, pulled him in his arms, as if he had something to say.
Nie Yanchen asked her unhappily, "What else do you want to say?"
Tu Nian curled his lips and turned to look at Bo Qiu, who had been ignored by everyone until now. "If you are kind enough, please take Bo Qiu with you. If it weren't for him, I would have died by now."
Was it he who knocked the man down?
Nie Yanchen paused for a moment and gave Bo Qiu a sharp glance. The latter looked indifferent, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
Nie Yanchen was anxious to heal Tu Nian's injuries and had no time to care about this man's hidden cultivation level. After all, as long as he was harmless to Tu Nian and the Snow Valley, no matter how mysterious he was, it was his own business.
Retracting his gaze, Nie Yanchen instructed Xu Ziqiao, "Take him with you as well."
After he finished speaking, he flew away, and Xu Ziqiao didn't even have time to respond.
Soon after, Xu Ziqiao reacted, took two steps forward and shouted at him, "Where are the people from Yuqing?"
Nie Yanchen's response echoed in the air from afar, "Take them back to the hotel and have someone guard them. I'll personally interrogate them."
When they returned to Nie Yanchen's residence, there were five people waiting in the room, including Chu Qiurong. Tu Nian was carried to the bed by Nie Yanchen, and the five people followed behind.
The leader among them was a slender man dressed in green. It was obvious that he did not have a martial style. He was probably the "Shan Cangzi" mentioned by Nie Yanchen.
"Master, let me check her wound first." Shan Cangzi said to Nie Yanchen.
"How, how do you look at it?" Tu Nian was a little scared for a moment.
She didn't interact much with the medical practitioners in the sect. She originally thought that most of the medical practitioners who could enter Jixue would be women. However, she didn't expect that in such an important experience, Nie Yanchen would choose a male practitioner to serve as a doctor.
In other words, she didn't expect that among the medical practitioners recruited by Jixue, the most capable one would be a man.
She was injured in many places. Apart from the wounds on her arms and legs, her waist, thighs, and back were all injured. She couldn't let this guy take care of everything for her, could she?
But Nie Yanchen's answer made her completely lose hope.
"Your injury is not light. Among the medical practitioners accompanying us this time, Shan Cangzi's medical skills are the best. Don't think too much."
