Chapter 444 Senior Sister Bai is Injured
"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it. What's there to worry about?"
Yun Chen shrugged, completely unconcerned.
With his current strength, he could even contend with someone at the Nascent Soul stage, let alone Yuwen Tingxuan, who was at the same level as him.
"Aren't you worried about your junior sister? She can't beat Yuwen Tingxuan."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yanran couldn't help but roll her eyes.
It would have been better if Zhao Xi hadn't participated in the ranking matches, but now that she has, she has even advanced.
Although she possesses an innate Dao body and is protected by the Heavenly Dao, the gap in strength is an insurmountable weakness.
If Zhao Xiruo were to face off against Yuwen Tingxuan tomorrow, and she were to be killed or seriously injured by him... that would not be a good thing.
After all, in ranked matches... swords have no eyes, and someone dying isn't considered against the rules.
Just like when Wu Hao was struck dead by lightning, the Taixu Palace still couldn't investigate the matter.
"Ruo Ruo?" Yun Chen was taken aback and turned to look at Zhao Xi Ruo.
"Don't worry, even if I can't win, I can still survive."
Zhao Xiruo spoke with a smile, showing no concern whatsoever.
Liu Yanran: ……
"It's okay, at worst Ruoruo can just admit defeat when she faces him tomorrow. He can't do anything blatantly, can he?"
Yun Chen said casually.
Given the doting affection Shenlei Palace has for Ruoruo, if Yuwen Tingxuan were to disregard the rules and do anything else, Elder Lei would probably kill him in no time.
Even the Jade Pivot Immortal couldn't be saved.
“That’s one way, but…”
Liu Yanran hesitated, her expression still showing some worry: "We still need to be careful."
"Understood, thank you, Senior Sister Liu."
Zhao Xiruo smiled and turned to look at Yun Chen: "Let's go back to Zixiao Garden first."
"it is good!"
Yun Chen nodded, and then left the square with Liu Yanran and Shen Nan.
Shortly after they left, the crowd in the square began to disperse.
But behind them, a figure was always quietly following, unnoticed by anyone.
It was already dark when we returned to Zixiao Garden.
The moonlight, like water, spilled into the tranquil courtyard.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Yun Chen stopped abruptly, his pupils suddenly contracting.
Zhao Xiruo followed behind him and almost bumped into his back.
"What's wrong?" she asked in confusion, then followed Yun Chen's gaze and gasped in shock.
In the center of the courtyard, on the bluestone ground, lay a familiar figure in red, motionless.
The moonlight shone on her pale face, adding to her poignant beauty.
"Senior Sister Bai!" Zhao Xiruo exclaimed and rushed forward.
Yun Chen was faster than her, and in a flash he arrived at Bai Qingluo's side and carefully helped her up.
The touch was icy cold, which made his heart sink.
Bai Qingluo's eyes were closed, and a trace of dried blood remained at the corner of her mouth.
Her red clothes were torn in many places, revealing deep wounds that exposed bone. The most serious wound was a palm print on her left shoulder, as black as ink, exuding an evil aura.
"What's going on here?"
Liu Yanran and Shen Nan looked grave as they stepped forward to check on Bai Qingluo's injuries.
"How could Senior Sister Bai be injured like this?" Liu Yanran exclaimed in surprise.
"I don't know."
Yun Chen shook his head, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down.
He reached out to feel Bai Qingluo's pulse and found that her breath was extremely weak, like a candle flickering in the wind.
Just then, Bai Qingluo's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes with difficulty.
Her eyes were unfocused, and she was clearly in a semi-comatose state.
"Quick...go..." With her last bit of strength, she uttered these two words before falling into unconsciousness again.
"Senior Sister Bai!" Zhao Xiruo called out hurriedly, but received no response.
"help!"
Yun Chen frowned, and without hesitation, he picked up Bai Qingluo and carried her towards the quiet room.
After carefully placing Bai Qingluo on the soft couch in the quiet room, Yun Chen immediately began to check her injuries.
The more he examined, the more serious his expression became.
"How is it?" Zhao Xiruo asked nervously.
"It's very serious. Her spiritual energy has been completely depleted, and her internal organs have shifted. If we had come back any later, we wouldn't have seen her again."
Yun Chen's face darkened, and his fists clenched involuntarily: "Who exactly is it?"
Bai Qingluo is at the Nascent Soul stage, and her strength is approaching the late Nascent Soul stage.
Even though she was under Elder Xuanqing's control last night, she was able to escape easily. Who could possibly have injured her like this?
And what did she mean by what she said before she fell into a coma?
"Do you have a solution?" Zhao Xiruo asked hurriedly.
After all, of the few people present, only Yun Chen was knowledgeable in medicine.
"Don't worry, with me here, Senior Sister Bai will be fine."
Yun Chen nodded, then turned to look at Liu Yanran and Shen Nan.
"Senior Brother Shen, Senior Sister Liu, please go and guard the entrance. I need to administer acupuncture to Senior Sister Bai and cannot be disturbed by anyone."
He would need to use Zhao Xiruo's Chaos Pearl next. Although the two were reliable, he still didn't want to expose them just in case.
After all, "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime," and no one can guarantee that someone won't have ulterior motives.
Of course, more importantly, someone is needed to protect the Dharma, otherwise... it is very likely that all efforts will be in vain.
"no problem."
Shen Nan agreed, and Liu Yanran did not refuse. She immediately left the room with Shen Nan and closed the door.
After Liu Yanran and Shen Nan left the room, Yun Chen quickly set up soundproofing and protective barriers around the quiet room to ensure that nothing went wrong.
He turned to Zhao Xiruo, his expression grave: "Ruoruo, Senior Sister Bai's injuries are extremely severe, and ordinary methods are insufficient to treat her. I need to use the power of the Hunyuan Pearl, combined with my Golden Needle Acupuncture Points, to forcibly dispel the evil energy in her body and repair her damaged meridians and internal organs."
Zhao Xiruo nodded without hesitation. With a thought, the Chaos Pearl emerged from her body, hovering in her palm, emitting a soft yet vibrant chaotic light.
"what should I do?"
"Slowly channel the life force of the Chaos Pearl into Senior Sister Bai's heart meridian to protect her essence. Remember, you must go slowly, as her meridians are currently very fragile."
Yun Chen gave the order in a deep voice, while taking out a set of golden needles that he always carried with him.
Zhao Xiruo followed his instructions and carefully manipulated the power of the Chaos Pearl.
The chaotic light, like a gentle stream, slowly flowed into Bai Qingluo's heart.
Yun Chen's eyes sharpened, and he struck with lightning speed.
Dozens of golden needles, imbued with subtle lightning power, precisely pierced Bai Qingluo's major acupoints.
The golden needles trembled, emitting a low hum, working in tandem with the power of the Chaos Pearl to expel the dark, malevolent energy that lingered at the wound.
"Zizi-"
When the yin and evil energies encounter the supreme yang and the primordial energy of thunder and chaos, it is like ice and snow meeting the sun, beginning to violently surge and melt away.
Bai Qinglu let out a painful groan unconsciously, her body twitching slightly.
"Hold on!"
Yun Chen let out a low shout, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
This process is extremely dangerous. If one is not careful, not only will all previous efforts be in vain, but it may also directly shatter Bai Qingluo's heart meridian.
Zhao Xiruo held her breath and focused all her energy on maintaining a stable output of the Chaos Pearl's power.
As time passed, the dark palm print on Bai Qingluo's shoulder faded visibly, and her pale face gradually regained some color.
Just as the treatment reached its most critical moment, Liu Yanran's urgent voice suddenly came from outside the quiet room:
"Yun Chen, Elder Lei has sent an urgent message, asking you to go to his residence immediately."
