Do you really think you can get me with just a banana?

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

They had just escaped death with great difficulty, but they still remained in Wangshuiling. They didn't know if they would defeat an old turtle now, but another giant beast would appear and attack them at night.

Everyone was silent for a moment, looking at each other to see if anyone else had any plans. Guan Shanyu turned to look at Yan Ruchen and saw that he was frowning and thinking, obviously considering his next move.

Although Wangshuiling had been burned, since it could harbor such a rare beast as the Spiritual Turtle, there was no guarantee that it wouldn't also harbor other unknown dangers. Although the culprit for the disappearance of the immortal sect disciples was obvious, the black-robed figure had not been apprehended and could still pose a threat to them, so everyone needed to make plans quickly.

So, Guan Shanyu suggested to Yan Ruchen, "Ruchen, we just went through such a fierce battle, and everyone has varying degrees of injuries. If we want to leave this valley, we can't guarantee what dangers we will encounter later. Why don't I treat everyone's injuries first, and then slowly think of a solution while I do it."

Yan Ruchen looked up at him, then glanced at the others. They were all exhausted from the fierce battle, with wounds of varying degrees on their bodies. They collapsed to the ground helplessly, and even trying to stand up was a burden. He nodded in agreement, "Thank you for your hard work, Shanyu. First, heal everyone's injuries. We'll discuss the road ahead together."

Guan Shanyu agreed and gently patted Su Yi and Qing Fan, who were leaning on his shoulders. The two finally recovered from their shock and bowed to Guan Shanyu with apologetic expressions. Guan Shanyu smiled and reassured them that it was nothing to worry about, motioning them to sit still while he detailed his injuries. He then picked up the scattered bags in the distance and began tending to everyone's wounds one by one.

Yan Ruchen circled around the old turtle's corpse, looking around to see if there was anything strange about it. While Guan Shanyu was applying medicine to Su Yi, he secretly turned to look at Yan Ruchen from the corner of his eye.

I wonder if he still remembers what happened in the illusion. Guan Shanyu was worried. What would happen if he still remembered and knew that his unbearable past was seen by others?

Will he kill him?

Guan Shanyu felt a little scared. After all, he didn't do it on purpose. He didn't know what the old bastard was crazy about to send him into Yan Ruchen's illusion. As the saying goes, the more you know, the faster you die. Wouldn't his already precarious life be in even greater danger?

"Hiss—Brother Shanyu, can you be a little gentler? I... can't stand the pain any more."

Guan Shanyu suddenly looked up and realized that he had used too much force when he was distracted. Su Yi's face was distorted by pain, but she still turned around and forced an ugly smile at Guan Shanyu. Guan Shanyu immediately apologized: "Sorry, sorry."

Treating the injuries of these male disciples went relatively smoothly. Although they had just experienced a fierce battle, their injuries were not serious, mostly just flesh wounds. Disinfection, medication, and bandaging were all done in one go. Even when Yu Kunliang and Su Benzhi were too exhausted to move, Guan Shanyu could still examine their wounds without hesitation. After all, they were all men, so there was less awkwardness.

However, when it came to the female disciples, the situation was different.

Seeing Guan Shanyu approaching, Jin Yu, who was already too tired to stand up, still tried her best to sit up. She shyly pointed to the scratches on her calves and arms and said softly, "Sorry to bother you, Senior Brother Shanyu. These are the only two places that need treatment."

Guan Shanyu looked at her carefully and noticed that there were bloodstains on her abdomen and chest. He thought that the girl was probably shy and didn't want him to deal with other places, so he pointed to two harmless places and asked him to deal with them.

He smiled and said to Jin Yu, "Jin Yu, there are differences between men and women after all. I took a quick look at your wound, and it's not very serious. How about this, I'll help you with the wound on your leg. Please pay attention to my steps. I'll give you the medicine and gauze later, and you can bandage the other injuries on your body. Okay?"

When Jin Yu heard this, she blushed instantly, thinking about how her shy thoughts would be discovered. She nodded, pursed her lips and whispered "thank you". Guan Shanyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, nodded at her, and carefully rolled up Jin Yu's trouser legs to treat her wound.

Yan Ruchen stood in the valley, carefully examining the old turtle. Aside from a strange light flickering in the center of its forehead, it was otherwise no different from an ordinary giant turtle. He decisively drew his sword, stabbing it in the forehead and unearthing something. After examining it carefully, he couldn't figure out what it was, so he put it in his pocket and turned his attention to the well-being of his companions.

Su Yi and the others had been carefully bandaged by Guan Shanyu, wrapped in gauze, sitting or leaning, resting quietly. Only Jin Yu's situation was slightly different. Guan Shanyu leaned over her, his back almost obscuring her, with his head down, and no one knew what he was doing.

Jin Yu, who was sitting opposite him, had a shy look on her face and flushed cheeks.

Yan Ruchen tilted his head in confusion and raised half of his eyebrows.

"Shanyu, how is Guyu?" Jin Yu saw Guan Shanyu finished bandaging her calf and carefully tied a bow. She was worried about the unconscious Guyu and couldn't help asking, her eyes drifting over there from time to time.

Upon hearing this, Guan Shanyu looked up at Jin Yu, then quickly averted his gaze. After a moment's hesitation, he replied, "Miss Guyu has no injuries on her body, but I'm not very knowledgeable, so I haven't figured out why she's unconscious. But don't worry, her life is safe. For details, we may need to see our master or the elders after we return to the sect."

When Jin Yu heard that Gu Yu was not in danger, he felt relieved and nodded gently, bowing to Guan Shanyu in thanks. However, Guan Shanyu's heart was in turmoil, after all, he knew that Gu Yu was suffering from the Soul Devourer.

I hope that the injuries Guyu suffered were not serious and his three souls and six spirits are still intact, otherwise even if he wakes up, he may become demented.

Guan Shanyu turned his head away, afraid that Jin Yu would notice the flaw on his face. He stood up and planned to find Yan Ruchen to check his injuries. However, he had been squatting for too long and suddenly stood up too hard. He felt dizzy the moment he stood up. Guan Shanyu pinched his palm to steady himself. When he looked up, he saw Yan Ruchen looking at him with a confused expression.

What kind of expression is this?

Did he remember what happened in the illusion? He wanted to do something to me!

Guan Shanyu swallowed his saliva and stared at Yan Ruchen for a long while, not daring to speak or move. Yan Ruchen saw Guan Shanyu turn around and look at him with a complicated expression, as if he had done something bad and was discovered. He then glanced at Jin Yu, who was still sitting on the ground in a daze, with an increasingly inquiring expression.

Guan Shanyu saw Yan Ruchen's brows relax and tighten, his eyes squinting and opening. He had seen this expression too many times.

This is a pure gossip expression!

Is he gossiping about himself and Jin Yu? But Jin Yu is your wife, young man!

Guan Shanyu immediately explained: "Just now I was treating Jin Yu's injuries, and she asked me about Gu Yu's condition."

Yan Ruchen was startled, thinking to himself, "Why are you explaining this to me?" But seeing Guan Shanyu's serious expression, as if he had noticed his expression just now and thought he had misunderstood something, Yan Ruchen turned his head away helplessly, and said with a smirk, "Is that so? Is Guyu okay?"

Guan Shanyu shook his head and said, "It's okay and it's not okay."

"Hmm?" Yan Ruchen turned to look at him. What kind of explanation was this? But Guan Shanyu had already stepped forward and stood two steps away from him. He said, "Let's take care of your injuries first. It will be dark soon. We need to evacuate here quickly."

Yan Ruchen looked up at the sun and saw that it was almost evening. Although it was still high in the sky, it would soon set. He replied, "My injuries are fine. Everyone, let's get some rest. It's not safe to go out at night. It's better to stay here overnight, rest up, and then set out early tomorrow morning."

Guan Shanyu didn't comment on the second half of his sentence, but disagreed with the first half. He asked, "Are you sure it's okay? The flesh on your shoulder is all torn apart."

Yan Ruchen was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head to examine himself. He saw that the clothes on his shoulders were badly damaged, revealing two shocking bloody holes. The flesh was turned outward, which was particularly horrifying. However, Yan Ruchen did not feel any special pain. He thought that the road ahead was long and he should use medicine sparingly. He was about to decline. Unexpectedly, Guan Shanyu's words attracted the attention of Su Yi and others. They turned around one after another. Qing Fan said in surprise: "Ruchen, your injury is not light. You are almost bleeding. Hurry and apply medicine. We still need you to hold on."

"Yes, yes, let's deal with it quickly." Others also echoed.

Yan Ruchen looked down at himself in a daze, thinking that it didn't seem that serious. However, he noticed two hands approaching him hesitantly. Looking up, he saw Guan Shanyu studying his wound seriously. Yan Ruchen smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Shanyu."

Guan Shanyu stared at Yan Ruchen taking off the clothes on his shoulders, and suddenly remembered that in the original work he had set up Yan Ruchen with an extraordinary ability to endure pain.

It turned out that this skill was created to save him from having to write too many words to describe the pain Yan Ruchen suffered, and to show off to Yan Ruchen. However, when Guan Shanyu saw the injury on Yan Ruchen's shoulder, he thought Yan Ruchen's ability to endure pain was too abnormal.

There were two holes on his shoulders, almost pierced halfway, which were obviously scratched when he helped him block the old bastard from stepping on him. In addition to these, there were scratches of various sizes on his body, even more than Su Yi and the others.

He had seen Yan Ruchen fight, and he was definitely not unable to dodge. This meant that his pain tolerance was different from that of ordinary people, so unless he suffered a fatal injury, he would rarely choose to dodge.

The hole was almost bigger than his mouth, but Yan Ruchen didn't even frown, and even had the mood to look at the corpse of the old turtle next to him.

Guan Shanyu sighed heavily, and suddenly felt that his setting was very fucked up. It seemed that he didn't treat Yan Ruchen as a human being at all.

Yan Ruchen heard Guan Shanyu sigh, so heavily that he seemed to be unaware of it. Suspicious, Yan Ruchen turned and asked, "What's wrong? Am I hopeless?" Guan Shanyu quickly waved his hands in denial, explaining, "No, I'm just thinking about how we're going to get back tomorrow."

Before Yan Ruchen could answer, Qing Fan at the side said, "We definitely can't go back the same way. We have to find another way."

Su Yi, perplexed, asked, "Why? Wouldn't it be faster to return the same way?" Yan Ruchen shook his head and said seriously, "No, there's a good chance someone is ambushing us along the way. Even if we step up our defenses, the risk of an ambush is still high."

Su Yi was even more confused and asked, "What does that mean? Why did we get ambushed even though we were on guard? Could it be that the other party is some kind of jerk?"

Jin Yu glanced at him helplessly and said, "Su Yi, you're not very smart. Have you ever heard the saying, 'It's hard to guard against a thief in your own home, even if you have a thousand defenses?' If we were ambushed by disciples from the sect on the way, wouldn't it be easy for us to get into trouble? Don't you agree, Yu Kunliang?"
