Zhou Xi was overjoyed to see that I was still willing to protect her. Thinking of his previous actions, he felt even more sad. There were several times when he wanted to come over and pull me away, but he was completely blocked by Feng Tian Yu.

Seeing that she was really pitiful and could not bear to leave, he nudged Tian Yu with his elbow.

”What for?”

I looked at Feng Tian Yu's bosom with ill intent. I didn't know how many treasures were still inside.

”Can you take something to cheer her up so that the ghost can't hurt her for the time being? I owe you one! ”

When Feng Tian Yu heard this, he seemed to have heard some sort of fantasy. He reached out his hand to pinch my face to see if I was dreaming.

”Xiao Yin, don't be silly. If there were some kind of treasure that no ghosts can invade, I would have given it to you a long time ago. It wouldn't have gotten you injured!”

I thought about it for a moment and felt that it was true. However, with the current situation, we could just leave. If something were to happen to Zhou Xinxi, it would also be our fault. How could I leave in peace?

Seeing my expression, Feng Tian Yu knew that I had started to soften. He could only shake his head and take out a yellow talisman from his bosom.

”Although this thing can't protect her from getting hurt, it can temporarily conceal itself, and it can't be seen by humans or ghosts.”

I happily received the sigil and handed it to Zhou Xi, hinting that she should properly protect herself.

”Alright, Great Hero, can we go back and heal your wounds now?”

I nodded before leaving in relief with Feng Tian Yu.

Xia Mingyuan didn't expect us to return so late, so he was worried and prepared to go out and look for us. But when he arrived at the door, he saw us in the living room and was about to ask us about the situation when he noticed that my expression wasn't right.

Xia Mingyuan grabbed my right hand and gave it to me, then he looked gloomily at Feng Tian Yu, ”I truly overestimated you. She followed you out, but she was still able to return with such moderate injuries.”

Feng Tian Yu wanted to explain several times, but he felt that he was in the wrong, so he could only silently squeeze my hand.

”Master, don't blame him. I was the one who tried to be brave and was injured.”

Although I was still annoyed with Feng Tian Yu forcing me to do this, he was still someone who had saved me before. Looking at the side of his face, I couldn't harden my heart, so I still explained in his stead.

Xia Mingyuan covered my mouth with his hand, signaling me not to speak for now. He carefully checked his pulse and ran into his room to get a red pill for me.

”Quickly eat it, you'll feel better next. See if you can still speak up for others.”

Seeing the two of them like this, he was afraid that they were going to argue again, so he hurriedly put the medicine into his mouth. Just as I wanted to say a few words of comfort to comfort Xia Mingyuan, I suddenly felt as if my lower abdomen exploded into a ball of fire, burning my entire body to the point that I was drenched in sweat.

”Master, what did you give me to eat?”

I hastily poured a cup of water into it, but it didn't reduce the burning sensation in the slightest.

”This is a Fire Pill, you just cultivated a little technique and the Qi in your Dantian is already unstable, and now someone is taking advantage of you and injecting so much cold energy into it. If you don't recuperate now, I'm afraid you will vomit blood every time you cast the technique.”

When I heard this, I wanted to spit out blood. This whatever Fire Essence Pill was really taking my life, I felt that my lower abdomen was slowly being burnt up, but the fire that was burning to my heart had already retreated. After a few rounds, I couldn't take it anymore.

”I told you to be brave and try to be a hero to save others, this is the price for being a hero!”
