Lonemoon’s mouth twitched in frustration. He felt a sudden impulse to leave. He has had enough of being led on the nose by this cheat. Enough was enough!

Taking a deep breath, he managed to regain his composure. He flew down to where Yi Qing was standing, covered in blood.

“Hey, Chef…” Are you still alive?

Just as Lonemoon was about to continue, he heard Yi Qing ask menacingly, “Tell me how to undo the spell you cast on my Master.”

Ge You, the sorry heap of flesh lying on the ground, did not reply. Instead, a fountain of blood spurted out from his mouth.

“Let me ask you once again. How to undo the spell?” Yi Qing stepped harder on Ge You, causing him to spit out even more blood.

Lonemoon’s mouth twitched in exasperation. Ge You was already so seriously injured, yet that cheat Yi Qing still persisted in questioning him. How the hell do you expect him to talk if you don’t remove your foot first?

Pui…

As he had expected, Ge You, who had been in no condition to speak, lost consciousness.

“Yi Qing, calm down!” Lonemoon stepped in to intervene. “He won’t be able to tell you anything if you carry on like this.”

“But, what about Master…” Yi Qing looked at him anxiously.

“There’s no point worrying. Xun Shu said that the spell won’t cause harm to her body.” Lonemoon added, “Killing him won’t help matters.”

After giving the matter some thought, Yi Qing removed his leg from Ge You’s body. Then his erect body started to sway. It looked as if he was about to fall any moment.

“Careful!” Xun Shu reached out his hand to steady him. He felt Yi Qing’s pulse and exclaimed in astonishment, “How is it you’re still alive…!”

Taken aback by Xun Shu’s outburst, Lonemoon grabbed Yi Qing’s other wrist. He found that Yi Qing’s meridians were badly damaged and the immortal Qi in his body was totally depleted. His abdomen was badly crushed and his immortal bones were broken in several places. If they had arrived any later, he might not be able to lift a wok in the future.

Instead of regulating his meridians immediately, he was interrogating his enemy! Yi Qing must be mad!

“Don’t you have any brains?” Lonemoon felt his anger erupting. Pointing to Yi Qing, he scolded, “You should retreat when you’re outnumbered. Why do you fight like there’s no tomorrow? All you’ve picked up from Shen Ying is her trouble-making skills, why don’t you learn some of her shameless methods?”

Yi Qing whipped around immediately, staring daggers at him. Forcing down the blood that had surged up his throat, he hissed through gritted teeth, “Don’t you dare… insult Master!”

“Holy Shit!” Will this brain-damaged fan ever be cured? Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Lonemoon said, “Regulate your meridians quickly if you want to live!”

Yi Qing sat down but his eyes were still looking at Ge You, whose bloodied body was now totally motionless.

“Don’t worry, he’s in no condition to escape.”

Reassured, Yi Qing closed his eyes and began regulating his meridians.

Although the injuries Yi Qing sustained had not damaged his foundation, they were serious nonetheless. His opponents had been emperor-level immortals and he had even fought against seven of them all at once. Indeed, it was a miracle that he was still alive. He would not be able to activate his sword Qi until his immortal bones were healed.

Yi Qing and Xun Shu set up a few array formations around Yi Qing. The two immortals then worked together to treat Yi Qing. Finally, after six hours, Yi Qing’s meridians were more or less restored to normal.

Lonemoon lifted the still unconscious Ge You, saying, “Let’s go back now. We’ll ask him how to wake Shen Ying up when he comes to.” Just as he was about to mount his sword, the message transmission talisman in his robes suddenly lit up. He fished it out and directed some immortal Qi to activate it. Immediately, his mind picked up the sound of Yu Hong’s voice. A look of bewilderment flashed across his face on hearing her message.

“Did something happen in the sect?” asked a curious Xun Shu.

“No.” There was a complicated look on Lonemoon’s face. Lowering his head to look at Ge You, he replied, “Yu Hong said… Shen Ying has awakened.”

There was a whoosh and the next moment, Yi Qing had vanished from sight.

Xun Shu: “…”

Lonemoon: “…”

Shen Ying suddenly remembered that she was now a floaty who could not eat anything. So she abandoned the idea of having a barbecue.

Shen Ying then recalled that she had been out for quite some time, it was now time to return home for her meal. She was just about to head back home when the little girl who seemed to have sensed something, started to get flustered.
