Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

Murong Wei took two steps back, staggered, and bumped into a tree trunk behind her, her eyes frighteningly empty.

"It's him...it's that flower thief Xie Xiaoyi..."

"I... I have no face to live in this world... I have no face to return to the Heavenly Sword Sect..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Murong Wei suddenly drew the sword from Yun Qianxun's waist, and with a flash of cold light, she slashed it towards her own neck!

"Junior Sister!"

Yun Qianxun and Xiao Lingyun exclaimed in surprise at the same time. Ignoring the numbness in his legs, Xiao Lingyun rushed forward, but in the end, he was too far away to reach her.

At the critical moment, Yun Qianxun acted swiftly, extending her right index and middle fingers to trap the sword blade in Murong Wei's hand.

The burst of internal energy caused Murong Wei's sword to slip from her hand, and she was then embraced by Yun Qianxun.

Murong Wei struggled frantically, tears mingling with desperate screams:

"Let me go! Let me die!"

I was defiled by that lecherous scoundrel! I am unworthy to be a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect! I have no face to show anyone!

She cried her heart out, her whole body trembling. Her usual aloof and proud demeanor was completely gone, leaving only sorrow and despair.

Yun Qianxun's eyes reddened with heartache. She hugged Murong Wei even tighter, pressing down on her struggling body, her voice slightly choked with emotion.

"Silly junior sister, this is not your fault!"

That wicked villain was despicable and shameless; he used a sleeping potion!

You did nothing wrong!

"That's right?"

Murong Wei burst into tears.

"But I, Murong Wei, have been humiliated by a mere womanizer... I've completely disgraced the Heavenly Sword Sect!"

Looking at her like this, Xiao Lingyun felt a mix of anger and heartache, and said in a deep voice:

"Your senior sister and I will never reveal a single word about this to anyone, not even our master."

Yun Qianxun nodded quickly, patting Murong Wei's back to comfort her:

"right!

Only the three of us know what happened today. As for our sect, my senior brother and I will find a way to cover it up.

I will never let anyone know!

Murong Wei simply shook her head, tears blurring her vision.

"it's useless......

He is Xie Xiaoyi, he is a womanizer!

He'll definitely spread this around, he'll definitely...

"He dares!"

Xiao Lingyun abruptly interrupted her, his eyes surging with murderous intent.

"Murong Wei, listen to me."

"From this day forward, I, the eldest brother, swear to the heavens—that in my lifetime I will take Xie Xiaoyi's head!"

"Even if he is at the peak of the ninth rank, the 'Vajra Saintly Guardian' realm, with an invulnerable physique, if he dares to utter a single word about this, I will find a way to grind him to dust!"

"If he hides, I will search the entire world, even digging three feet into the ground, to find him!"

"I'll show him what happens when someone dares to mess with someone from my Kunlun Heavenly Sword Sect!"

The series of words were delivered with resounding force, leaving no room for doubt, which made Murong Wei tremble all over.

Yun Qianxun raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, her voice slow and gentle.

"Junior sister, death will not solve anything."

Xie Xiaoyi is a scoundrel; he's not worth risking your life for.

"I promise you, even if you fall into the mud, I'll grit my teeth and get up with you, and trample those who harmed you underfoot."

After a pause, Yun Qianxun gently patted Murong Wei's back with her slender hand, her tone becoming even softer.

"With me and my senior brother here, the sky won't fall down."

If Xie Xiaoyi dares to gossip, I'll skin him alive without even my senior brother having to lift a finger!

Just focus on getting better; we'll take care of the rest.

Murong Wei buried her face in her senior sister's arms, and her crying gradually subsided, her sobs also weakening.

The autumn wind swept through the forest, stirring up the fallen leaves on the ground, and the three figures stood silently in the shadows of the trees.

The killing intent in Xiao Lingyun's eyes was like a wildfire, burning fiercely.

Yun Qianxun knew that her senior brother had always secretly liked his junior sister, Murong Wei.

Now that things have turned out this way, he must be angrier and sadder than anyone else.

......

Meanwhile, Xie Xiaoyi, using all his remaining energy, ran for an unknown amount of time.

The cobblestone path beneath his feet had turned into a muddy mountain trail. Previously, he could have managed to hold on thanks to the internal energy of the "Harmony Qi Technique."

But as time went on, his consciousness began to fade, and all he could hear was his own heavy breathing.

He dared not relax. After witnessing Xiao Lingyun's swordsmanship, he realized what it meant to be "there are always people more skilled than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding."

Xiao Lingyun's internal strength is profound, and the crossbow bolt only caused a scratch. If the "Drunken Spring Breeze" medicine is not strong enough to completely exhaust him, wouldn't I be in danger?

"Hold on... hold on..."

Xie Xiaoyi muttered to himself, but as soon as he finished speaking, a violent wave of dizziness suddenly struck him.

Everything went black, and he collapsed into the grass beside the mountain path, completely losing consciousness.

I don't know how much time passed, but I heard a girl's voice in my ear.

"Senior brother! Look! There's someone here!"

A clear female voice broke the silence of the autumn night, followed by steady footsteps.

The girl crouched down, and just as her fingers touched Xie Xiaoyi's wrist, she was startled by the sticky bloodstains and withdrew her hand.

She frowned as she looked at Xie Xiaoyi on the ground.

His black clothes were soaked in blood, his face was covered in mud and blood, and he had a knife and a short crossbow at his waist.

He doesn't look like a nice guy at all.

"He's a martial arts practitioner, and he's badly injured, with two sword wounds on his shoulder. He's lost too much blood."

The girl's senior brother also squatted down, checked Xie Xiaoyi's breathing, and felt his pulse, his brows furrowing.

"He's still breathing, we have to save him quickly."

"Help?" the girl cried out, grabbing her senior's arm.

"Senior brother, are you crazy?"

Master went out to gather herbs and it's unknown how long it will take for him to return. If we can't cure this seriously injured person, it will only harm both ourselves and others!

Besides, look at his attire; he might be some evil sect leader. What if saving him brings trouble upon us?

The man paused, but still stubbornly shook his head and reached out to help Xie Xiaoyi up.

"The Plain Questions state that a physician should have a benevolent heart; how can one stand by and watch someone die without offering help?"

Even if he is a demon, he is now a half-dead demon.

Let's take him back to the clinic, stabilize his injuries, and wait for Master to return to decide what to do.

"Decide my foot!" The girl named Suwen stamped her feet in frustration, clinging tightly to him.

"What did Master say before he left?"

Let's guard our medical clinic and avoid provoking those from the martial arts world!

Have you forgotten that swordsman who was being chased down the mountain last time?

We saved him, but it attracted our enemies, who destroyed the herb garden in our clinic!

"That's different."

The man's voice remained gentle. He pried open the girl Suwen's hand and carefully placed Xie Xiaoyi's arm on his shoulder.

"Last time it was just because we lacked experience. This time I will be careful and will never leak any information."

The classic text states, "Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda; we can't just stand by and watch him die here, can we?"
