Before the smoke cleared, the center of the explosion had been surrounded by patrol teams in three layers.

Yue Cong looked seriously at the center of the encirclement, not even noticing when Li Nu left his hand.

Master Bai Yuan sensed the undercurrent outside before the explosion, so he rushed over immediately. He was also shocked when he saw Yun Xian, and then stood beside Yue Cong and looked towards the smoke-filled area.

When the smoke cleared, only half-broken grass and a horrifying pool of blood remained on the open ground.

"what happened!"

Yue Cong frowned, the patrol team looked at each other, and Yun Xian was also a little puzzled.

Master Bai Yuan stepped forward, and the patrol team made way for him. He squatted down near the bloodstain, carefully examining it for a moment, then squinted at the half-cut bushes nearby.

After a moment, he reached out and brushed away the dirt on the surface and picked up a human-shaped doll. He then took a piece of cloth from a branch that was cut in two, stood up and looked at Yue Cong.

"A puppet substitute?" Yue Cong frowned even tighter. "Who is this person?"

"This kind of unconventional practice is not common. This person might be a wandering cultivator." Master Bai Yuan said, turning to look at Yun Xian. The situation at the moment forced him to temporarily ignore the sudden appearance of the Qinghui Sect Leader.

"This piece of cloth feels like it's made of fine brocade. The person who came here must be wealthy or noble. There are also large bloodstains on the cloth and the ground. It must be the sword that Master Yun stabbed the thief. She must be seriously injured now. I didn't expect that she could escape in such a situation."

"The ambush by the bad guys was my fault, Wenyuan. Don't worry, Master Yun, I will get to the bottom of this matter!" Yue Cong further stated.

Yun Xian just nodded, but his eyes were on the puppet, but he didn't say anything else.

Seeing that he had no objection, Yue Cong winked at Master Bai Yuan and turned around to deal with it.

The explosion just now was too loud, and this place is where many sects gather. Soon, the camp of Wenyuan Academy was surrounded by people from other sects who came to investigate the situation.

"Master Yun..." Yue Cong looked at him, unsure whether this master was willing to show himself in public.

Yun Xian's face was calm as he replied calmly, "It's late now. I won't bother Wen Yuan any more."

Yue Cong breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally gotten rid of this big Buddha. He smiled and sent the person out.

At the same time, on the muddy path on the other side, Lu Zhaozhao covered his chest, clenched his teeth, and ignored the cold sweat on his forehead as he walked quickly and laboriously on the muddy and wet ground.

There were many swamps near the lake. The moment Lu Zhaozhao was stabbed by the sword, he suddenly noticed the wet mud not far away. He immediately took out the puppet he had prepared before going down the mountain and performed a replacement spell to escape.

What bad luck, Lu Zhaozhao has a cold face.

The reason why she dared to take action just now was that she was betting that Yun Xian would not take action. At first, she thought the bet was right. After all, according to Yun Xian's character, he would not bother to take action against people as insignificant as dust. And Lu Zhaozhao, who could only barely be comparable to the out-of-body state after using his skills, was undoubtedly this speck of dust.

But unexpectedly, Yun Xian clearly had no intention of attacking her, but he swung his sword at the moment when she was about to escape, so fast that she could not react in time.

What she didn't know was that the spell she had inadvertently cast was actually a long-forgotten forbidden spell. Naturally, she didn't know that Yun Xian didn't kill her in order to leave her alive.

By some strange coincidence, Lu Zhaozhao managed to save his life.

But the movement just now caused quite a stir, and the surrounding sects should have been alerted. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to hide now.

Lu Zhaozhao ran to a tall reed bush to hide his figure, carefully explored the surroundings to make sure that no one was behind him, and then loosened his hand that was tightly covering the wound.

The blood was still flowing. Yun Xian applied his true energy to the sword, making the wound unable to heal. When Lu Zhaozhao escaped just now, he had no time to deal with it. He was afraid that the blood would expose his whereabouts, so he could only cover it tightly, causing the injury to worsen.

"call……"

Lu Zhaozhao used a dagger to pick away the clothes that were stuck to her skin, and kept adjusting her breathing. The intense pain rushed straight to the top of her head, forcing her to wake up.

Deep within her flesh, a trace of residual true energy continued to disrupt her self-healing. Lu Zhaozhao looked at the flesh and blood on the edge of the wound that was turned outward, and could only sigh in her heart that it was a good thing that Yun Xian just casually took the sword of the disciple next to him, and fortunately the quality of this disciple's sword was not outstanding.

At that instant, Niye pulled out his sword in time and collided with the flying sword. At that moment, Lu Zhaozhao immediately felt the pain in his palm and his entire arm, and subconsciously wanted to let go.

At the moment before the sword was separated, she turned her wrist and used the force to neutralize some of the flying sword's power, but the gap in strength between her and Yun Xian was too great, and the flying sword still reached her.

Fortunately, the overload of true energy and the collision made it difficult for this ordinary sword to withstand, so it broke in half, half of it was blocked by Niye, and the other half was unable to dodge and pierced her chest, along with the true energy attached to the sword, and hit her body together.

Lu Zhaozhao lifted her clothes, and the half of the sword had not yet entered her body.

She pulled off a piece of her sleeve, rolled it into a ball and stuffed it into her mouth. Then, she placed her hand on the exposed part of the sword, closed her fingers, and finally, exerted force suddenly.

Big beads of cold sweat flowed down Lu Zhaozhao's face. He bit the cloth in his mouth in pain, and with another effort, the sword that was embedded in his body was completely pulled out.

The moment it was pulled out, she bent over in pain, her knees weakly on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Clang."

The sword blade, stained with blood, fell beside him.

However, she was not good at medicine, and could only hope to slowly resolve the disturbance of the internal Qi, so she could only treat the wound with water and then bandage it with cloth.

After doing all this, Lu Zhaozhao suddenly collapsed in the reed field.

The double exhaustion of body and mind made her so exhausted that she didn't even notice a figure approaching when she fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Zhaozhao woke up again when she felt someone touching her body.

A pair of warm and gentle hands rested on her wrists.

Lu Zhaozhao opened her eyes a little, and vaguely saw a blurry figure.

She was a girl with an extraordinary temperament. She wore a veil and lowered her head to take Lu Zhaozhao's pulse so carefully that she didn't even notice that he had opened his eyes.

After a while, the woman frowned slightly, seeming a little embarrassed. After a moment, she took away the hand on Lu Zhaozhao's wrist, and she seemed to be about to turn around to check the situation further.

The moment she turned and looked away, Lu Zhaozhao's hand touched Niye beside her.

In a flash, the sharp blade touched the slender neck of the person in front of him.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Lu Zhaozhao asked in a cold voice.

The person in front of him was stunned for a moment, chuckled, and slowly lifted the veil, revealing the peerless face underneath.

"Junior Sister Lu, we meet again."
