“Who is injured?” Meng Qi opened the door. She saw four disciples from Fentian Palace standing outside.

This time, Elder Xun Yan led a team to support Qingfeng Valley. In addition to his own strength at the Nascent Soul stage, he also brought some Golden Core and Foundation Establishment disciples. Two days ago, he led the team to fight the invading forces, and even Chu Tianfeng was going with them.

As soon as Meng Qi opened the door, she saw two Fentian Palace disciples carrying a soft sedan chair. Chu Tianfeng was sitting weakly with a pale face on it.

The disciple who knocked on the door quickly said in an anxious tone: “Elder Xun and the elders of Qingfeng Valley have not yet returned. Young Palace Master forbids us to notify them because he worries that he might affect their battle. He asked us to come to Fellow Daoist Meng, saying that you can heal him.”

Chu Tianfeng was injured again?!

Meng Qi looked over the disciple to see the young man behind. His complexion really looked bad, and his face was also very pale. There was no trace of color on his thin lips. At the corners of his mouth, she could see a dark red, solidified blood.

Meng Qi: “…”

He looked a bit miserable.

Meng Qi stepped forward. She quickly activated a spell with her right hand and carefully examined Chu Tianfeng’s injury. She spent three months being locked during her previous life, and did not know the specifics of the battle. Although there were Nascent Soul cultivators on their side, the enemies didn’t seem to be weak either.

Meng Qi suddenly fell silent. She took a deep breath: “The devil beast that hurt you seems to have lower cultivation than yourself?”

Although Chu Tianfeng’s appearance looked miserable, his injury was not serious. His body still plentiful with spiritual aura, and his condition now was totally incomparable with his previous poisoning, which temporarily suppressed his cultivation level. This time it was just a minor injury. Simply take medicine for an open wound and rest for two days.

“You…” Meng Qi frowned slightly. Before she even finished her sentence, Chu Tianfeng rushed to interrupt: “I will pay!”

Meng Qi: “…”

“If you can help me recover as soon as possible, so I can go back to help the elders,” Chu Tianfeng’s eyes were like a cold star, and he stared at Meng Qi without blinking. “I will pay you as many spirit stones as you like.”

Meng Qi: “…”

The disciples of Fentian Palace also stared at her eagerly. Anyway, they were here to help Qingfeng Valley. Only if Qingfeng Valley was saved, would Meng Qi, whose cultivation was merely in the Qi Condensation stage, would also be safe.

She took a deep breath.

This kind of small injury…

Meng Qi said, “Send people to the Cloud Immortal Pavilion and buy two third realm Ganlin pills.”

“Okay.” Chu Tianfeng nodded. His eyes sparkled: “What about your consultation fee? How much should I give you?”

Meng Qi hesitated. She had just received a huge sum of money, a whopping 270 seventh-grade spirit stones, and to be honest, she was really not so short of spirit stones. But it was obviously impossible for her to not demand payment.

“One fourth-grade spirit stone.” She finally said.

“Okay.” Chu Tianfeng lifted his jaw towards the disciple who held up the sedan chair, motioned for him to take out the spirit stone. In an instant, Chu Tianfeng’s spirit improved a lot, and his pale face gradually regained color. Having no need to be lifted by others, Chu Tianfeng stood up from the sedan chair.

“The enemy this time is more cunning than we thought.” Chu Tianfeng said to Meng Qi. “During this time, you better not leave Qingfeng Valley. The elder set up a protective array around the sect to ensure the safety of the disciples of Qingfeng Valley. ”

“I see.” Meng Qi nodded. Her expression was indifferent. “Thank you.”

Chu Tianfeng didn’t seem to notice anything wrong, and did his best to find another topic: “Your sect leader has already agreed. After the matter here being resolved, Qingfeng Valley will follow us to the Fentian Palace.” A hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and his tone became briskly: “We will be the same sect in the future.”

“If young master Chu is alright now, I will take my leave first. I still need to go to Qingfeng Town.” Meng Qi walked forward. She had to go to Qingfeng Town to deliver the Beiming pill to Beyond The Heaven’s relay station and retrieve her spirit stones. And just now, the jade slip also notified her that the jackdaw grass she bought had arrived.

Meng Qi’s mind was filled with the little white tiger’s injury. She already knew that Qingfeng Valley would eventually become an affiliated sect of Fentian Palace, so this news didn’t surprise her. Before the auction, Meng Qi was still considering the possibility of joining Fentian Palace’s Medical Hall. She was indeed very interested in their book collection. But now, she has made up her mind. It was better for her to be less involved with Chu Tianfeng. With Beyond The Heaven, she could always find a way to read the books she needed.

“Just the right timing, I also want to go there now.” Chu Tianfeng quickly followed Meng Qi: “I need to go to the Cloud Immortal Pavilion to buy medicine, let’s walk together.”

Meng Qi: “…”

The disciples of the Fentian Palace watched their young master, who didn’t look like an injured patient, walked together with Meng Qi towards the sect gate. After the figures were completely gone, the disciples glanced at each other.

“Are we waiting for the Young Palace Master here?” One of them asked.

“Otherwise?” Another person shook his head helplessly.

“Speaking of which…” One of the disciples who was carrying the soft sedan chair suddenly asked: “Do you remember how the Young Palace Master was injured this time?”

“I was a little far away, and didn’t see too clearly.”

“I saw it.” Another person who also lifted the sedan chair answered: “Young Palace Master’s opponent was a third-rank, second-realm devil cultivator. Young Palace Master certainly had a higher cultivation base. In the beginning, Young Palace Master was completely on the upper hand, so no one, including myself, ever thought to give him an assist.” “Later…” He recalled seriously, “It seemed that Young Palace Master has defeated the devil cultivator, and the other party also has given up struggling, so I didn’t continue to pay attention. That’s why I don’t know how did Young Palace Master get hurt.”

“It should be that devil cultivator pretended to admit defeat, and then when Young Palace Master put down his guard, suddenly attacked and hurt him. Huh! Devil cultivators are really cunning. Later, we should be more careful when fighting them.

The disciples once again exchanged glances. They all saw some doubt in each other’s eyes. But they were originally ordered by Elder Xun to protect Chu Tianfeng. If nothing happened to their Young Palace Master, it was naturally the best for everyone. No one has the intention to probe deeper.

“Fortunately, there is Fellow Daoist Meng. I heard that the last time, Young Palace Master was injured more severely, and it was also her who rescue him.” Fentian Palace’s disciples quickly changed the topic.

“You say…is Young Palace Master interested in this Fellow Daoist Meng?”

“I thought that Young Palace Master was after Lu Qingran from Qingfeng Valley?”

“Did you see Young Palace Master ever care about her during these several days?” Right after he said these words, another disciple hurriedly pulled his sleeve. Lu Qingran, whom they had just gossiped, was walking quickly towards them.

Lu Qingran saw several disciples of Fentian Palace were standing outside Meng Qi’s room. She stopped in front of them with a worried face: “I heard that Tianfeng was injured. Is he okay?”

The disciples looked at each other. Nobody said anything, but their expression somewhat strange. When Lu Qingran saw their reaction, her heart tightened. She quickly rushed forward and reached out to push open the door of Meng Qi’s room: “How is he? Is the injury very severe? Is Junior Sister Meng……aaaah!!!”

When Lu Qingran opened the door, she suddenly screamed and backed away. No one saw what exactly had just happened, and even Lu Qingran herself was utterly confused. The next second, she saw a white mist rushing toward her.

Immediately…

“My face!” Lu Qingran covered her face with both hands, “…my eyes! My eyes are itchy…it hurts!” She screamed back and forth: “I can’t see anything! My face is itchy! Master……aaaaahh!”

The Fentian Palace’s disciples didn’t know what was actually happening. When they saw Lu Qingran screaming so violently, they didn’t dare to touch her. Lu Qingran’s screams quickly attracted other Qingfeng Valley’s disciples. Sect leader and the elders were all went outside to fight the enemies, and the majority of the disciples who were left behind were either in Qi Condensation or Foundation Establishment stage. No one dared to touch Lu Qingran.

“Sister Lu must be poisoned!” A disciple of Qingfeng Valley looked from afar and said quickly: “Look at her face and neck…there are many red spots!”

“I also see some pus!”

“It’s true, ah. She must be poisoned.”

“What’s going on? What has just happened? How can Junior Sister Lu get poisoned inside the sect’s ground?”

“Heaven, that red dots are increasing…ugh…so disgusting!”

“Scary!”

Lu Qingran only felt that her face became more and more itchy and painful. But she still could clearly hear all those disciples’ words, and she became more and more terrified. She didn’t dare to scratch her face and neck. But the itchy feeling seemed to bite her skin bit by bit, penetrating into her bone and blood, and made her really want to scratch her face hard.

Lu Qingran barely calmed herself down. She quickly took out two pills from her storage space and stuffed them into her mouth, but the itch and pain did not alleviate. Her face even became hotter instead, as if something was going to come out of the skin.

“Ah! Senior Sister Lu, your face! There is a lot of pus…green pus!”

“Eurgh…”

“What happened to Senior Sister Lu?”

“Meng Qi…” Lu Qingran couldn’t take care of it anymore and screamed, “Where is Junior Sister Meng Qi?!” She covered her face and turned to shout at the disciples of Qingfeng Valley: “Go and find Junior Sister Meng Qi!”

“Y-yes.” Some disciples quickly turned and ran out.

Lu Qingran didn’t dare to move. She felt more and more uncomfortable. The itchy and painful feeling seemed to be spreading down her neck. Gradually, even her whole body began to itch.

Inside Meng Qi’s room, Xiao Qi jumped back into the bed. He was lying down lazily like usual, but those blue eyes were dimmer than when Meng Qi left. Two lines of the protective array set by Meng Qi at the door were slightly changed. Although it didn’t seem to change much, the effect would be doubled. Xiao Qi closed his eyes and lazily laying down on his stomach. Today was really tiring, he wanted to take a good rest.

The noise outside the door lasted for a long time, but it didn’t seem to affect the little white tiger.

After some time passed, Xiao Qi finally heard footsteps he had been familiar with. The little white tiger, who was still lying lazily just now, raised his head instantly, and his two small fluffy ears stood up and shook slightly. But he quickly reacted—No, it was wrong. How could he be happy because she came back?! It was a girl who forcefully hugged him to sleep and also did all those things to himself!

The little white tiger was quickly lying down again, resting his head on his front paws. However, he did not close his eyes this time.

“What’s the matter?” Meng Qi came back from Qingfeng Town and saw the crowd outside her room. The one who was trembling at the door, far away from everyone with her back turning seemed to be….Senior Sister Lu Qingran?

“Junior Sister Meng Qi!” A disciple immediately called, “Senior Sister Lu seems to be poisoned!”

Meng Qi:???

Did everyone now come to seek her when poisoned?

“Junior sister Meng.” After the previous events, all Qingfeng Valley disciples were quite polite to Meng Qi. Especially because right now, the young master of Fentian Palace was standing mightily behind her.

“Senior Sister Lu seems to be harmed by your poison.” The disciple said cautiously.

Meng Qi raised her eyes and took a glance. Lu Qingran’s body trembled even more.

“Junior Sister Meng Qi, I have been poisoned by you.” Even without looking into the mirror, Lu Qingran knew that her appearance now must be very terrible. She didn’t understand why the poison seemed to become even more severe after taking the detoxification pills. Lu Qingran did not dare to look behind. Now she could see the light yellow pus exuding not only on her face, but also neck and even below her sleeves. It looked disgusting.

“Would you please help me dispel this poison first?” Lu Qingran’s voice trembled softly, and it sounded pitiful. “I… I was just too worried about Tianfeng. I was so anxious that I forgot to knock on the door. I didn’t intentionally break into your room. I never have any intention to peek on your secrets. Please don’t be angry. Give me the antidote first, okay?”

Meng Qi suddenly realized that Lu Qingran wanted to enter her room, triggering the protective array she set up. She stepped forward to give Lu Qingran the antidote.

Suddenly her wrist was gripped, stopping her. It was Chu Tianfeng.

The young man gave Meng Qi a glance before stepping forward. He stared at Lu Qingran coldly and said in an indifferent tone: “Lu Qingran, is this how you apologize?! What do you mean, saying that you were poisoned by Meng Qi? You didn’t respect your junior sister, broke into someone else’s room without permission, and got poisoned by the thing inside. You deserve it.” Chu Tianfeng’s voice was even colder than the cold pond on the top of Qingfeng Valley: “If you want to apologize for your wrong, just apologize properly!” He said coldly. “Don’t use me as an excuse!”
