In Zhu Xian, people start to rise from plundering entries

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the three finally found a place to rest.

Su Han sat down, leaning on his sword for support, his breathing heavy like a broken bellows.

The wound on my left arm was shrouded in black mist, and the excruciating pain was accompanied by a bone-chilling cold, which was constantly trying to erode along the meridians.

The knife wound under my right ribs burned with pain, and my clothes were soaked with blood.

But he quickly sealed the acupoints around the wound to barely stop the bleeding, and then his gaze was eagerly fixed on the white figure at the cave entrance.

Lu Xueqi leaned against the cold rock wall, her beautiful face drained of color, almost transparent.

The Heavenly Sword leaned against her side, its light somewhat dim.

When she saw Su Han looking at her, her long eyelashes trembled slightly. She wanted to speak, but it triggered a suppressed cough. A streak of bright red blood oozed from the corner of her lips, reflecting on her snow-white skin, a shocking sight.

"Your injury..."

Su Han's voice was hoarse from panting as he forced himself to step forward, enduring the pain.

"I am fine."

Lu Xueqi's voice was soft, but it carried an undeniable firmness. She shook her head slightly, signaling Su Han not to come closer.

Even this simple movement seemed to have exhausted her strength, and her brows furrowed slightly due to the churning blood and qi within her body.

"You're alright! You're in this state!"

Biyao rushed to Su Han's side and, without saying a word, shoved an exquisite white jade porcelain bottle into his hand.

"This is a top-grade wound medicine given by Aunt You. It has miraculous effects on both internal and external injuries. Take it quickly!"

She spoke very quickly, with an air of unassailable authority.

Then he turned to Lu Xueqi, looking at her struggling appearance, he was both anxious and angry, but he also knew that this was not the time to argue.

She quickly took out another, slightly smaller jade bottle from her bosom and poured out a pill the size of a longan, which emitted a clear medicinal fragrance.

"This is the 'Heart-Cleansing and Soul-Purifying Pill,' which is beneficial for suppressing internal injuries and regulating disordered internal energy."

She handed the pill to Lu Xueqi, her tone still carrying a hint of her usual spoiled manner, but her concern was genuine.

"Eat up! You two are both so stubborn and reckless!"

Lu Xueqi looked at the pills that Biyao handed over. The fragrance of the medicine was refreshing and invigorating, and one could tell at a glance that it was no ordinary medicine.

She hesitated for a moment; after all, the demonic possessions of the sorceress were...

However, the excruciating pain within her body, coupled with the precarious situation she was in, left her no room for recklessness.

If she falls, she will only become a burden to Su Han.

Finally, she reached out her slightly trembling hand, accepted the pill, and whispered almost inaudibly, "Thank you."

He then put the pill into his mouth. The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, and a gentle yet powerful warm current quickly surged into his limbs and bones, beginning to soothe the raging pain and guiding the disordered Taiji Xuanqing Dao Yuan Qi back to its proper place.

She closed her eyes and focused all her energy on neutralizing the medicinal effects.

Su Han also took the medicine powder given to him by Bi Yao as instructed. He felt a warm current roll down his throat and spread into his internal organs. The coldness of the wound on his left arm seemed to be suppressed, and the pain was relieved a little.

He dared not delay, and immediately sat down cross-legged, circulating the Taiji Xuanqing Dao to force out the poison and heal his injuries.

Biyao stood guard beside the two, watching their surroundings warily.

The forest was silent, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind and the faint howls of wolves in the distance.

The entrance to the cave was littered with traces of the fierce battle: broken trees, scorched ground, and the gradually cooling corpse of the Shadow Fiend leader, all testifying to the danger that had just occurred.

She was filled with lingering fear; if Su Han had made the wrong gamble with that sword... she dared not imagine the consequences.

Time slipped away slowly in the oppressive silence.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Su Han was the first to open his eyes and exhale a breath of foul-smelling air.

The black aura on the wound on the left arm had faded by more than half. Although the wound was still gruesome, the corrosive power of the cold had been temporarily suppressed by the combination of Taiji Xuanqing Dao Yuan Qi and medicinal power.

He stood up and moved his left arm. It was still painful, but it no longer affected his mobility.

"How does it feel?"

Biyao immediately asked with concern.

"I'm fine now. This medicine is truly amazing."

Su Han looked at Bi Yao, her eyes filled with gratitude.

“We must leave immediately. The Shadow Fiends are cunning and unpredictable. There’s no guarantee they won’t be able to track us down, or that even more dangerous individuals will arrive soon.”

He walked to Lu Xueqi's side and called softly, "Junior Sister Lu?"

Lu Xueqi slowly opened her beautiful eyes, and the light in them returned somewhat. Although her face was still pale, her breathing was much more stable.

She glanced at the still-bleeding wound on Su Han's arm, which had been simply bandaged, then looked at Bi Yao and said softly, "I can go now."

As she spoke, she tried her best to stand up, but due to the severity of her injuries, she swayed slightly.

Su Han subconsciously reached out and supported her arm.

It felt icy cold to the touch, and through her thin clothes, I could sense her weakness.

Lu Xueqi's body stiffened, and she instinctively tried to break free, but she was indeed too weak at the moment.

"I'm sorry, Junior Sister Lu."

Su Han said in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for argument. (End of Chapter)
