”Fine, I am fine,” he quickly explained. It was a shame that he had lost one level, but the condition was not as bad as he thought. He could always practice more and regain his current status.

Gu Xijiu's eyes were filled with concern. She observed his complexion again and murmured, ”You spiritual power has been reduced.”

”Just a little. It does not matter.”

Gu Xijiu closed her eyes for a brief moment before she continued, ”How can you say it does not matter? It is very difficult for you to advance from level eight to level nine.” She hesitated. Her lips were starting to tremble, but she tried to smile. ”I got you into trouble. It is my entire fault. I should have behaved better. I will not do it aga...” Before she could finish, she started to vomit blood. Her body then started to sway. Immediately, she suffered from a blackout and fell.

”Xijiu!”

In a blur, she could still remember that Long Siye called her name out loud. She could feel that she fell into a man's arms. Then, she lost consciousness completely.

Gu Xijiu was sick for three days. The fever came and went. She was unconscious.

In her sleep, she could tell that someone kept holding onto her hand. Someone kept talking to her and telling her that she should stay strong.

How could she stay strong?

She had always been a very strong and determined woman who would not rest until she had reached her goals.

No matter how difficult the situation was, she would always do everything she could to overcome the problem. She had always been very optimistic.
