When the night was quiet and everyone was asleep, a chill came over Xiao Liyue and she subconsciously opened her eyes.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a man in black wearing a black robe and a black mask on his face standing beside the bed. He was surprised to see Xiao Liyue wake up, and then he stabbed a sharp sword at her heart. Xiao Liyue rolled over and dodged it, but luckily she dodged in time and the sword did not hit her vital parts. However, it did cut a deep gash on her arm.
Xiao Liyue saw the black wound and knew that the sword was poisonous, so she quickly took out the detoxification pill and started eating it.
Chi Yi, who was sleeping soundly, sensed that Xiao Liyue was injured and quickly woke up.
"Yueyue, you are injured." Chiyi flew out anxiously and saw her bleeding arm, and said with a worried look on his face.
"Yeah! I'm fine." Xiao Liyue said coldly.
Chi Yi glared at the man in black in front of him fiercely: "You are looking for death! How dare you sneak attack Yueyue while I was sleeping." After saying that, he attacked him.
Yu Fengchen, who was sleeping in the next room, was awakened by the sound of fighting next door. He quickly got up and rushed out of the room and ran towards Xiao Liyue's room.
As soon as he entered the room, a sword stabbed towards Yu Fengchen, but Yu Fengchen dodged it nimbly.
Xiao Liyue saw him trying to enter the house, and without turning her head, she covered the wound on her abdomen and shouted, "Xiao Chenchen, hurry up. He is a strong man in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Go find the Great Elder and the others. Chiyi, stop him."
Yu Fengchen didn't expect that the killer was a powerful person who had transcended tribulation. With his level of cultivation, staying here would only be a burden. He immediately turned around and flew towards the palace of the Supreme Elder.
Seeing that he wanted to tip off, the man in black immediately attacked, but his attack was blocked by a golden shield.
He looked at the flying red wing with greed in his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm afraid you are not a simple holy spirit beast! It would be more promising to make a contract with me."
“Bah… Even if you are a strong man in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, you are not worthy to be my master.” Chi Yi said with disdain.
"Heh... very good, someone wants to take your master's life. I will kill her first and then contract you." After saying that, the old man in black continued to attack Xiao Liyue.
Chi Yi rushed forward to protect her, thus preventing Xiao Liyue from getting hurt further.
However, the gap in strength between the two was too great. Even though Chiyi was an ancient mythical beast, he had to protect the injured and poisoned Xiao Liyue while guarding against the man in black. With his level of cultivation, he could not hold on.
Seeing that he couldn't kill Xiao Liyue and help was about to arrive, the man in black said in a cold voice: "Even if I can't kill you now, it probably won't be your turn to enter the Netherworld Secret Realm this time. And little spirit beast, I will come to find you after your master dies." After saying that, he prepared to leave.
Just when he was about to leave, the Grand Elder and others arrived at Liyue Palace.
Seeing the man in black trying to leave, the Great Elder quickly stopped him and said, "Senior, you dare to enter our Xianling Sect and hurt people, why don't you dare to show yourself to us?"
The man in black ignored the great elder, but looked at the supreme elder coldly and said: "Luo Feng... I didn't expect you to come, but you can't catch me." After that, the man in black disappeared in mid-air.
When the Second Elder wanted to chase him, he was stopped by the Supreme Elder: "It's useless. This is not his real body. Let's go see how Xiao girl is doing first."
Yu Fengchen rushed to Xiao Liyue's room as early as when they stopped the men in black. When he saw her half-kneeling on the ground with pale lips, he went forward with a look of heartache and helped her up.
"Master...are you okay?"
Chi Yi also flew to Xiao Liyue exhaustedly and said with a worried look on his face: "Yueyue, you are poisoned..."
"What...poisoned!" Yu Fengchen's face changed drastically.
Xiao Liyue raised her head, her pretty little face was now extremely pale.
When Yu Fengchen saw her entire face, he was stunned. Xiao Liyue under the mask was so beautiful.
When the Great Elder and his companions came in, they saw that she was covered in wounds. Without even asking how her face healed, they hurried forward to feel her pulse.
After the Grand Elder felt the pulse, his expression changed slightly: "Such a vicious poison..."
"Puff..." Xiao Liyue spat out a mouthful of black blood in pain and fell into a coma.
"Master... Xiao girl..." Yu Fengchen and others shouted anxiously.
The Grand Elder fed her a pill and said with a serious look, "Hold her well, I will force the poison out of her body."
"It's the Supreme Elder." Yu Fengchen supported Xiao Liyue's body and helped her sit down.
The Supreme Elder came to Xiao Liyue and sat cross-legged on the ground. He stretched out his hands and placed them behind her back and began to input spiritual power to force the toxins out of her body.
The first and second elders at the side looked at her with concern.
An hour later, Xiao Liyue vomited a few mouthfuls of black blood, then snuggled in Yu Fengchen's arms and fell into a coma again.
The Grand Elder withdrew his spiritual power and said weakly, "Fortunately, Xiao girl took the antidote pill in advance, otherwise even if the gods came, they would not be able to save her."
The second elder said angrily, "Who is so vicious and powerful, yet he still uses such a despicable method to deal with a child?"
"We were careless tonight. We thought that tomorrow would be the Netherworld Secret Realm and no one would dare to do anything." The Great Elder said with guilt.
The Grand Elder said helplessly: "Fortunately, Xiao girl is fine. This person's cultivation is probably comparable to mine. There are not many people in the world of immortal cultivation who have reached the stage of transcending tribulation."
Chi Yi said, "I saw an ugly scar on his wrist, which was like a centipede."
After hearing this, the Grand Elder suddenly thought of something and said with a slightly changed expression, "It's Wei Wuchang..."
"What? My uncle? Isn't he dead?" the Great Elder asked in surprise.
“Maybe he didn’t die after falling off the cliff. After he rebelled, he was forced into the depths of Yunwu Mountain by me and the Sect Leader. Although his meridians were destroyed, from what we saw just now, I’m afraid he was practicing the devil’s way.” said the Supreme Elder.
The Great Elder asked worriedly, "Then Master, if you fight him, what are your chances of winning?"
"It's hard to say... If he really cultivates magic, I am probably on par with him. It would be difficult to defeat him." said the Supreme Elder.
The second elder frowned and said, "What should we do? Xiao girl is so injured today. I'm afraid she won't be able to go to the Netherworld Secret Realm tomorrow!"
"Just watch for now! We can discuss tomorrow's matters after Xiao wakes up." said the Supreme Elder.
Yu Fengchen hugged Xiao Liyue and carried her to the bed. "Elders, do you want to find a woman to change Master's clothes into clean ones? Her clothes are all stained with blood."
The second elder said, "Then we need to find someone reliable. I don't have any female apprentices here. How about you call Qin Rong over here, Senior Brother?"
The Great Elder said, "Well! This is the only way."
Qin Rong, Wei Zishu's cousin, although not a direct disciple of the Great Elder, is also one of his inner disciples. Although her cultivation is average, she is good at dealing with people.
Qin Rong came over soon, and when she saw Xiao Liyue covered in blood, she was a little surprised.
He was fine today at the Great Elder's place, so how come he was suddenly injured so badly? Although she was curious, she was smart enough not to ask any more questions.
Instead, he followed the Great Elder's instructions, changed her clothes and mattress, and then left Liyue Palace.
Yu Fengchen looked at Xiao Liyue who had changed her clothes, stepped forward to cover her with a blanket, and continued, "My dear elders, I will stay here with Master tonight!"
"Well! That's good. Remember to call us when she wakes up." said the Supreme Elder.
Before leaving, the Supreme Elder set up a barrier here for Xiao Liyue.
After they left Liyue Palace, Yu Fengchen looked at her with a distressed expression. From time to time, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and he wiped it off with a handkerchief.
Before I knew it, the sky began to brighten.
