So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

They originally thought that they could just wait until the people from Lei Xiao Sect arrived smoothly, and then all problems would be solved.

But in the second half of the night, a burst of rapid and weak breathing sounds suddenly came from the originally quiet cave.

Lei Tingyi's tightly furrowed brows and pale face all told of the pain he was feeling at the moment.

He seemed to be trapped in a nightmare, uttering a muffled groan or two from time to time, and his body trembled slightly.

Ling Jiuan stood by his side, watching this scene, his heart in his throat.

She nervously reached out her hand and gently touched Lei Tingyi's forehead. The scorching temperature made her heart tighten.

"Lei Tingyi? What's wrong with you?"

She called out anxiously, with an imperceptible tremor in her voice.

However, Lei Tingyi's eyes were closed and he did not respond at all, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

Ling Jiuan looked at his painful expression, his brows furrowed and his face looked grim.

She remembered that Lei Tingyi had been seriously injured by a wild beast before, but he recovered very quickly that time.

But this time, she could feel that Lei Tingyi's injuries were getting more and more serious, as if an invisible force was eroding his body.

She sighed and looked through the cracks in the cave, watching the water flow outside, spanning everywhere she could see.

The water is rushing and the waves are surging, like a ferocious beast, ready to devour everything at any time.

She knew in her heart that she couldn't fly, so there was no way she could take Lei Tingyi away from here.

If Lei Tingyi went into the water again, he would surely die.

At this moment, Lei Tingyi, with his eyes closed, suddenly muttered in his sleep, his voice weak and trembling.

"Cold, so cold..."

When Ling Jiuan heard this, his heart tightened and he quickly took out two thick cloaks from his storage bag and gently covered him with them, trying to dispel some of the coldness for him.

She looked at Lei Tingyi's still furrowed brows and pale face, and felt extremely anxious.

Then she moved the fire closer.

However, after a while, Lei Tingyi didn't seem to get any better despite her efforts.

He was still mumbling in his sleep, his voice full of helplessness and pain.

"Cold...so cold..."

Jiuan had never seen such a thunderous force before.

Ling Jiuan looked at him and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

She didn't know what else she could do but hold his hand tightly.

Finally, Ling Jiuan gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.

She gently moved her body, moved closer to Lei Tingyi, and held him tightly in her arms.

She warmed him with her body temperature and let him fall asleep against her.

A whole night passed, and Ling Jiuan hardly slept a wink. She was anxiously paying attention to Lei Tingyi's condition.

If this person dies, it will be troublesome.

Finally, his fever broke, which gave her some relief.

However, the man showed no signs of waking up and remained in a deep sleep.

Ling Jiuan was extremely anxious. She didn't know what had happened to Lei Tingyi and why he hadn't woken up yet?

She raised her head and looked outside the cave, hoping that the people from Lei Xiao Sect would arrive as soon as possible.

However, as time passed, there was no sign of them.

She was filled with worry and anxiety, not knowing what to do next.

In this situation, she is really like a cook without rice, but she is helpless!

At this moment, several figures suddenly appeared on the originally calm water surface, and they quickly approached the cave.

Ling Jiuan's expression suddenly became stern, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on the Akabane sword beside her, ready to deal with any possible danger.

She was not sure whether these people were from the Lei Xiao Sect or were sent by Cheng Xuan to hunt them down.

Her heart beat faster and her eyes scanned the figures on the water vigilantly.

I just hope it doesn't make things worse.

Fortunately, the next moment, a familiar voice broke her tension.

Uncle Zhong spotted the two people. He landed at the entrance of the cave and called out anxiously.

"Young Master? Is that you?"

Jiuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Uncle Zhong's voice.

"It's us, Uncle Zhong. We are here."

As she spoke, she pointed at Lei Tingyi in the cave, her eyes full of worry.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhong immediately led the people from Lei Xiao Sect into the cave.

When they saw Lei Tingyi unconscious, their faces turned serious.

Uncle Zhong quickly walked over to Lei Tingyi and began to check his injuries.

Uncle Zhong fed a precious pill into Lei Tingyi's mouth, then turned and looked at Ling Jiuan, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Miss Ling Wu, thank you for your hard work. But the young master is seriously injured. We have to take him back to Lei Xiao Sect to heal."

Ling Jiuan nodded to show his understanding.

"Of course. It's him... When you go out, can you give me a ride? I can't fly..."

She smiled somewhat awkwardly. After all, she had no spiritual roots and no ability to fly.

Uncle Zhong smiled when he heard this, his eyes full of gentleness.

"Don't worry, girl. This is what we should do. We will take you away from this dangerous place."

After leaving the cave, Uncle Zhong took Lei Tingyi away without any delay.

He used his own cultivation to transform into a stream of light and rushed towards the direction of Lei Xiao Sect.

Ling Jiuan stood there, watching Uncle Zhong and Lei Tingyi gradually disappear from sight, with mixed emotions in her heart. She was worried about Lei Tingyi's injury, but also grateful for Uncle Zhong's timely appearance.

Now, with no one around, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

She looked around and saw the water was rushing and the waves were surging, like a ferocious beast ready to devour everything at any time.

She knew in her heart that she was lucky to leave this place alive.

At this moment, Ling Jiuan vaguely heard someone calling his name. The voice echoed in the valley, seeming a little ethereal.

She responded subconsciously.

"Who?"

Then I listened carefully and found that the sound seemed to come from the other side of the valley.

The next moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of her. It was Chen Yan.

He had a smile on his face and looked a little tired.

"Ling Jiuan, it's me."

Chen Yan said, with a hint of relief in his tone.

Jiuan was a little surprised. She didn't expect Chen Yanyan to appear here.

She frowned.

"Chen Yan, why are you here?"

Chen Yan smiled.

"I'm just worried about you, so I came to check on you! I know your character, and you will definitely persevere to the end. So I came to find you and see if you are okay."

Ling Jiuan was a little surprised when he heard this.

"I'm fine, just a little tired. Lei Tingyi has been taken away by the people of Lei Xiao Sect. We should leave this place as soon as possible."

Chen Yan nodded.

"Okay, let's leave together. I've found a way out of here. We can just keep walking along the valley and we'll find the exit."

When Ling Jiuan heard this, he was delighted.
