"This..." Little Jiu, the junior sister, fell silent. Then she gritted her teeth and said, "Alright! I will keep watch for you tonight! If a demon appears, I will shout with all my might before I die so you can escape."

After speaking, she ran outside the house.

Song Yan yawned and laid comfortably on the bed.

...

The next day.

During the day.

Little Jiu was bidding farewell again.

Song Yan said, "Your wound won’t heal in half a month, and I still need to go to the Library Pavilion to read during the day.

So, let me show you some simple treatment methods. If any fellow disciples get injured, you can treat them for me."

After saying this, he didn’t wait for Little Jiu’s reaction, directly throwing some elixirs and ointments onto the table, briefly explaining their functions and uses, and then left using sword control.

A day passed. "Kan Water Escape" was also moved onto the panel. Then he spent 12 years cultivating it to perfection.

However, when the cultivation technique mutated, he vaguely sensed that the mutation direction of "Ghost Profound Root" would only be offensive. This "Kan Water Escape" would also become an attack method, no longer improving speed. But no matter the attack method, how could the mutated "Kan Water Escape" compare to "Sword Evil Demon Dragon"? Hence, he temporarily shelved it.

As for the function of "Kan Water Escape," it allows the user to escape through water, spanning dozens of feet in an instant, making it extremely fast.

Upon returning to the bamboo house, Little Jiu was busy treating an injured sword cultivator.

Her hands were busy and nervous. Upon seeing Song Yan appear, she looked as if she saw a lifeline and hurriedly ran over, asking Song Yan to go treat the sword cultivator.

But Song Yan didn’t go; instead, he gave Little Jiu some pointers and then lay on the bed.

...

That evening.

Little Jiu did not mention leaving but made a wooden bed to sleep under the eaves outside the door.

Seemingly with no one to confide in, yet feeling really nervous, Little Jiu tossed and turned. Finally, in the middle of the night, she called out through the wall, "Brother Bai, tomorrow is Jingzhe, I wonder if the elders will win."

However... there was no response from Brother Bai on the other side of the wall.

Little Jiu sighed, then wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, turned over, and continued to sleep.

Just then, Brother Bai’s voice came through.

"Whether it’s Jingzhe or not, life goes on. Tomorrow you will stay at the bamboo house and treat people for me."

"Why?"

"Because I can’t manage it all."

"Can’t manage it all?"

"Back when Teacher Kuye was here, there weren’t many patients, but now with the war, there are too many.

Moreover, the Profound Field also needs someone to look after these days. I haven’t been there, I’m afraid the Profound Flower and Profound Grass might have been damaged by demon beasts."

"Then... Brother, you can find someone more suitable."

"You are quite suitable; in a few days, I will talk to the elder responsible in the sect to let you stay here."

"I think it’s better for you to find a Dao companion, Brother, that would be more reliable."

"I don’t want to. Alright, enough talk. Tomorrow I will go inspect Profound Field, and if nothing unexpected happens, I will move nearby to live."

Outside the door fell silent suddenly.

For a long time, Little Jiu mustered a sentence, "I’m not pretty, I’ve been disfigured."

But the response she got was a muffled laugh from behind the door.

Accompanied by Brother Bai’s explanation, "Sorry, couldn’t hold it in."

Little Jiu’s face turned completely red.

As dawn was approaching, she quietly got up, quietly wrote a letter, and then quietly left.

...

After dawn, Song Yan picked up the letter.

Song Yan did not move; he looked up at the sky.

In fact, the Puppet Sect’s attack on the Nanwu Sword Sect on Jingzhe was the least likely possibility of the three he had considered.

But it happened.

Thoughts clashed in his mind.

Suddenly, he thought of a fourth possibility.

Suppose Konglan Mountain indeed had the Fox and Wolf Races, and Gu Huangzi indeed wanted to escape, yet he still attacked the Nanwu Sword Sect.

Then, there could be only one reason.

That is, Gu Huangzi wanted to take something from the Nanwu Sword Sect before he left.

What could it be?

About to flee, what could be that important?

The answer is "key."

As a Three Kingdoms Dominator, Gu Huangzi likely knows of the Ancient Teleportation Array, knows it is damaged, and knows that the Nanwu Sword Sect’s Sect Leader lineage has been studying how to repair the Ancient Teleportation Array.

Thus, his attack on the Nanwu Sword Sect wasn’t genuinely about annihilation.

What he truly wanted was to abduct Yu Xuanwei.

Almost the instant he thought of this, Song Yan moved, his form blending with the water, rapidly escaping to Luoxia Bamboo Island in the depths of Misty Sea!

He is someone who always takes immediate action when "the possibility is high, and the logic is sound," and never needs "see it with his own eyes" as solid evidence.

If Gu Huangzi indeed appeared on Luoxia Bamboo Island this time, then... it was time to end it.

Gu Huangzi’s "Cold Ice Hell Bracelet" was virtually a "Divine Soul battery," containing the essence of several generations of Puppet Sect’s old demons.

This item, it suits him well.

He’d been craving it for a long time.
