Gu Yi sat on a rock opposite Xie Wenyun. For some reason, he felt a little embarrassed.

To ease the embarrassment, he reached out to touch Jiang Lingzhou, who was unconscious, to check his injuries.

Just as he stretched out his hand, he was interrupted by Xie Wenyun: "Junior sister! Don't touch him!"

Xie Wenyun's voice was so loud that it scared Gu Yi, and even Lin Yuan, who was watching coldly from the side, couldn't help but frown.

It was the first time that Gu Yi heard Xie Wenyun speak to him so loudly, and he was a little confused for a moment.

"Xie Senior Brother, I just wanted to see Junior Brother Jiang's injuries. I really didn't intend to do anything..."

Listening to what Xie Wenyun said just now, someone who didn't know would think that I was going to molest him...

Xie Wenyun was also startled by himself. He stood up and tugged hard at the cloak covering Jiang Lingzhou. His tone softened, and his expression was still a little unnatural:

"Junior sister...men...men and women shouldn't touch each other. You're a girl, how could you touch Junior Brother Jiang...Junior brother? I've checked his injury, it's not serious."

"Okay then." Gu Yi felt that what Xie Wenyun said made sense.

At this moment, Lin Yuan, who had been folding his arms and remaining silent, suddenly spoke up: "How did he get hurt? Was it also because of the vines under the cliff?"

Gu Yi: ...

Why the hell are you bringing up something irrelevant? Gu Yi had lied to Lin Yuan about the vine matter. He looked at Xie Wenyun nervously, afraid that he might say something wrong.

Xie Wenyun's expression froze. He coughed lightly and spoke softly, "The vines under this cliff are poisonous and will attack actively, but fortunately the poison is not fatal and only causes hallucinations. Junior Brother Jiang was poisoned and then hit by a falling rock from the cliff, so he has been unconscious ever since."

When Gu Yi heard this, he immediately felt relieved. Senior Brother Xie was really understanding.

Even if I'm not with him, I can still perfectly cover up his lies.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly and said no more.

At that time, the noise made by Gu Yi's advancement to the Golden Core stage was so loud that the entire bottom of the cliff was illuminated by the thunder.

Xie Wenyun naturally saw it as well.

After he and Jiang Lingzhou fell, they hid in a relatively secluded cave near a water source.

It was not until he saw the huge thunder outside that he realized someone was coming.

Although he didn't know who else was at the bottom of the cliff, Xie Wenyun still decided to go out and take a look.

When he arrived, Gu Yi had already passed the tribulation and was supporting Lin Yuan, whose injuries had relapsed.

The three of them met and briefly talked about what had happened to both sides. Xie Wenyun then took them back to the cave where Jiang Lingzhou was hiding.

Xie Wenyun helped Jiang Lingzhou cover himself with clothes and sat down next to him, looking as if he didn't want anyone to get close to him. However, Gu Yi didn't think much of it. "Has Senior Brother Xie's spiritual power recovered?"

Xie Wenyun: "...Recovered..."

"In my opinion, Junior Brother Jiang won't wake up for a while. Why don't we carry him back first? Let Miss Ye take a look at him?" Gu Yi really had enough of staying in this place.

I don’t know what’s going on with Mu Yang. We agreed to meet at the cliff, but by chance I met Lin Yuan.

Xie Wenyun hesitated and looked at Jiang Lingzhou who was lying unconscious on the ground.

"The day to leave the secret realm is approaching." Lin Yuan said coldly, "If we remain trapped here, we will be left behind."

Xie Wenyun nodded: "Young Master Lin is right. It's getting late today, and my junior sister has just advanced to the Golden Core stage. How about we rest for the night and go back tomorrow morning?"

Gu Yi stretched, he was indeed very tired. Besides, Lin Yuan was also injured. Now among the four of them, only he and Xie Wenyun were intact.

Jiang Lingzhou is unconscious and Lin Yuan is injured. They really need to rest and regain their energy before they can go back.

So the three of them made the decision happily.

Lin Yuan was still sitting at the entrance of the cave and didn't want to come in. Gu Yi didn't bother to care about him and told him to sit wherever he wanted. He was exhausted and didn't have the leisure to care about others.

Xie Wenyun always sat next to Jiang Lingzhou. Gu Yi thought it was to make it easier for him to take care of him. Xie Wenyun said that when Jiang Lingzhou first fell, he had a fever all over his body. It was only in the past two days that he started to feel better.

It's hard to believe that this "spoiled" little bully would take the initiative to save others.

The cave was cold, so Gu Yi lit a fire in front of him. Because the firelight was so dazzling, he wrapped himself in the silk Jiang Lingzhou had given him and used the clothes as a pillow to rest.

Soon, the sound of even breathing could be heard from the cave.

They were both so tired that Lin Yuan and Gu Yi fell asleep.

In the entire cave, only Xie Wenyun was still awake. He looked at the stone wall, as if he was back to the time when only he and Jiang Lingzhou were in the cave, staring blankly at Jiang Lingzhou's unconscious profile.

Some things, once done, can never be forgotten.

When he wakes up, I won't be able to face him...

Just when Xie Wenyun was lost in thought, Jiang Lingzhou suddenly turned over, put his face close to his thighs, and hugged his waist with his hands.

Xie Wenyun's body stiffened. He quickly glanced at Gu Yi and Lin Yuan who were still sleeping, then reached out to pull his hand and whispered, "Let go! Jiang Lingzhou!"

"Senior Sister Ye...I like you..."

Jiang Lingzhou not only did not let go, but held her tighter and tighter.

Xie Wenyun's face turned red and white, and he resisted the urge to slap him to death.

He took a deep breath and told himself not to be impulsive and not to wake up Junior Sister Ye and Lin Yuan. Then he gently coaxed Jiang Lingzhou in his ear, "Junior Brother Jiang, please let me go first. This is uncomfortable."

Jiang Lingzhou relaxed his grip slightly after hearing this, muttering, "Senior Sister Ye..."

Xie Wenyun hurriedly pushed him away, and when he looked up again, he met Gu Yi's scrutinizing eyes.

In fact, Gu Yi woke up when Jiang Lingzhou called her "Senior Sister Ye" for the first time.

He heard someone calling him in a daze and thought he had misheard.

As a result, when I opened my eyes, I saw Xie Wenyun and Jiang Lingzhou hugging each other...

Jiang Lingzhou was still mumbling "Senior Sister Ye".

Gu Yi saw Xie Wenyun looking at him awkwardly. He was stunned for two seconds before he burst out laughing: "Is it that Junior Brother Jiang has been treating you like me these days and has been pestering you all the time?"

A trace of panic flashed in Xie Wenyun's eyes: "Yeah."

Gu Yi rarely saw Xie Wenyun with such an expression. Since he joined Tianmu Sect, Xie Wenyun has always been steady. Seeing him so helpless today really opened Gu Yi's eyes.

He covered his mouth and chuckled quietly: "It's really difficult for me, brother, haha."

Xie Wenyun saw Gu Yi's smile and forgot his embarrassment for a moment. He also laughed, but his voice was slightly bitter: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Junior Sister..."
