The group quickly entered the West City. With Qi Wei present, the guards did not dare to stop them, and they soon arrived at a relatively secluded courtyard.

Qi Wei summoned the guards of West City and whispered a few instructions.

Although the guard was surprised by this, he didn't dare to ask more questions and quickly led them to the most secluded room in the backyard.

"It's quiet here and no one will disturb us." Qi Wei stood at the door and had no intention of going in.

Lu Yuguan's condition became more and more serious. He could not stand steadily, and he let out a faint whimper. His hands unconsciously tore at his collar, revealing a small piece of red skin.

Seeing this, Li Chonglin no longer hesitated and directly picked up Lu Yuguan and carried him horizontally, then strode into the room, with Zhao Zimo following closely behind.

Lu Yuguan's unbearable breathing and the man's soothing voice could be faintly heard from inside.

Qi Wei stood there, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. He turned around with a flick of his sleeves but did not walk far. He just leaned under the pillar outside the courtyard, looking at the sky, wondering what he was thinking.

"What's going on, Mr. Lu?"

Shangguan Qi asked in confusion, "This is so strange. I've only seen it in the Hehuan Sect. Could it be that he's been struck by a demonic cultivator's technique?"

Zi Xiaoya rolled her eyes at him.

She was also present at the Nanzhou event, and even witnessed the entire process at one point, although it was through a curtain.

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask," Zi Xiaoya grabbed Xiao Zhima's paw and threatened, "Just pretend you know nothing."

Shangguan Qi curled his lips and sat on the steps aggrievedly, "If you don't want to ask, then don't ask. Why are you so harsh..."

inside the room.

Li Chonglin put Lu Yuguan on the bed. He curled up as soon as he touched the quilt, his body trembling slightly, but he clung to the person next to him and refused to let go.

"Is it the backlash of the dragon's roar just now?" Zhao Zimo wiped Lu Yuguan's forehead with a wet towel and asked in a deep voice.

"Nine times out of ten."

Li Chonglin looked at Lu Yuguan's painful expression and his anger grew stronger and stronger.

Zhao Zimo seemed to know what he was thinking and looked up at him: "Don't be so repulsive, everything is for Yuguan."

Li Zhonglin's jawline tightened: "I understand...but..."

"Just what?"

"You should be able to tell this is different from last time," Li Zhonglin gritted his teeth. "The spiritual energy he has lost is too great. Furthermore, the spiritual energy in this world is so scarce that it will take forever to recover."

"Then let him help." Zhao Zimo said in a flat tone.

"Mr. Zhao, are you fucking crazy?!" Li Chonglin grabbed his collar with a cold look in his eyes, "Qi Wei is different from us. He doesn't really like Yuguan at all!"

"Are you so sure?"

Zhao Zimo stared at him, "You can tell from the way Qi Wei looks at Yu Guan that his feelings for Yu Guan are the same as ours."

Li Zhonglin took a deep breath and said, "Do you know why Qi Wei is interested in Yuguan?"

"why?"

"Back in the Xuanyu Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, Qi Wei noticed that Yu Guan looked very similar to the fairy he had seen in Zhongdu Hezhou, so he always took good care of Yu Guan."

After hearing this, Zhao Zimo was silent for a moment: "Maybe that's the case."

Li Chonglin continued, "In short, I will never allow Qi Wei to get involved with him!"

"But have you ever thought about what will happen if we can't suppress Yuguan?" Zhao Zimo said in a deep voice.

Li Zhonglin's eyes dimmed, and he released his hand that was grabbing Zhao Zimo's collar. He sat down dejectedly on the edge of the bed: "We can't let Qi Wei get close to us either. I always feel that he has bad intentions."

Zhao Zimo walked to the window, looked out, and said slowly: "Now is not the time to act rashly. The situation in Yuguan is critical. One more person to help may mean more hope."

Li Zhonglin clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. "Hope? Who can guarantee that Qi Wei won't take the opportunity to harm Yu Guan? What if he has other motives?"

Zhao Zimo turned around, his eyes determined: "We can only take a gamble. There is no better way right now. Do you want to watch Yuguan suffer like this?"

When Li Chonglin heard this, anger and worry mixed in his heart, but he also understood that what Zhao Zimo said was true.

He sighed heavily, as if letting out all his helplessness: "I know this, but... I'm really afraid, afraid that Qi Wei has bad intentions, and then Yuguan..."

Zhao Zimo walked over, patted Li Chonglin on the shoulder, and said soothingly, "I understand your concerns, but now, we can only choose to believe."

Li Chonglin was silent.

He looked at the pale Lu Yuguan, and the prejudice in his heart gradually melted away: "Let's make a bet this time, but if Qi Wei dares to make any unusual moves, I will not let him off!"

Zhao Zimo nodded, then asked him another question, "Chonglin, we keep saying we're good to Yuguan, but we can't protect him..."

"Even if we love him, how does he see us?"

……

Li Chonglin opened the door quickly.

Qi Wei heard the door open and turned his head to look.

Li Chonglin stared at Qi Wei, his tone unquestionable: "You, come in."

"What do you mean, Li Shengzi?" Qi Wei raised his eyebrows, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes, "Are you going to just stand by and watch?"

"Cut the nonsense!"

Li Zhonglin said in a stern tone, "Yuguan is in trouble now, how can you stay out of it?"

Before he finished speaking, a crying groan from Lu Yuguan suddenly came from inside the room, and he seemed to be in great pain.

Li Chonglin's eyes sharpened, and the long sword in his hand hummed. The sword tip was unsheathed three inches, and the cold light was intimidating: "If you don't agree, don't even think about leaving this yard safely today!"

For a while.

The atmosphere in the courtyard was tense.

Shangguan Qi was frightened by the pressure emanating from the two men and couldn't help but move closer to Zi Xiaoya, "Hey... why are they acting so strangely?"

"Stupid!"

Zi Xiaoya said unhappily, "If someone wanted to share his wife with you, would you agree?"

"I……"

Shangguan Qi suddenly remembered his miserable secret love.

"Don't discuss this with me..."

"I will cry..."

“I really cry!”

Zi Xiaoya's mouth twitched: "...problem."

*

The candlelight flickered in the room.

Lu Yuguan was lying on the bed, his cheeks so red that blood seemed to be dripping out, like a ripe peach.

His breath was hot, and every rise and fall was accompanied by a small moan.

Zhao Zimo sat on the edge of the bed, his palm covering his forehead, and slowly injected cold spiritual power into him, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean. Just as it suppressed a little bit of the heat, it quickly rebounded.

"It's no use."

Zhao Zimo withdrew his hand and his voice became deep.

Li Zhonglin stood beside the table, his fingertips clenched until they turned white. "Can it be like last time..."

"What are you talking about?" Qi Wei frowned.

Li Zhonglin glanced at Qi Wei and prepared himself mentally before speaking: "The last time Yuguan was like this... it was with us..."

He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was self-evident.

Qi Wei's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, with a somewhat elusive meaning: "So, Li Shengzi still doesn't want me to help?"

Li Chonglin frowned, his eyes full of vigilance: "I don't believe you."
