Master fell into evil? I took the blame for the heroine

"This is the person he wants to protect..." Fu Xueqiong thought silently, feeling a little dissatisfied in her heart.

She knew Luo He valued Wang Xiaoke, but she had never considered her own feelings. However, when she saw Luo He's devotion to Wang Xiaoke, a subtle sense of resentment surged in her heart. She couldn't understand why Luo He was willing to take such a huge risk, knowing that he would almost die, yet still not look back.

Fu Xueqiong gently raised her hand, her cold fingertips caressing the corner of her trembling lips. She was aware of her unease, but she didn't know how to respond. She had never experienced such emotional fluctuations towards anyone before, yet now, the indescribable emotion in her heart was quietly spreading, as if challenging her cold self-possession.

She didn't like this emotion.

"He's only human after all, and sooner or later he'll be burdened by these emotions," Fu Xueqiong muttered to herself, as if trying to find a reason. She looked away, no longer staring at Luo He and Wang Xiaoke, trying to regain her usual composure.

However, no matter how she restrained herself, that sour feeling still lingered and could not be completely dissipated.

Fu Xueqiong pursed her lips slightly. The turbulent feeling in her heart made her feel unfamiliar and uncomfortable. She knew that she was experiencing an emotional upheaval unlike any she had ever experienced before. And the source of this upheaval was an emotion she had never truly acknowledged—a concern she didn't even want to acknowledge.

She looked at the clouds in the distance, trying to calm herself down.

But in the end, her gaze couldn't help but fall back on Luo He.

Would you do this for me?

Chapter 134 Induction

Return to the spiritual realm.

Luo He took a deep breath, feeling the silence around him. He clenched the Exploding Stone in his hand, a sense of urgency welling up in his heart. The enemy could catch up at any moment, and they were running out of time.

Right now, he had to set up traps in a short time and create spiritual traces to confuse the enemy into chasing in the wrong direction. Otherwise, they might not even have a chance of survival.

He looked down at Wang Xiaoke in his arms.

She was unconscious and her face looked slightly pale. Although her handsome face usually showed confidence and courage, at this moment, in her coma and weakness, she showed a rare gentleness.

Her brows were slightly furrowed, her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her face, and her lips were lightly pursed, as if she was still struggling in a dream, but her overall look revealed a hint of peace.

Luo He's heart sank slightly. He knew that if she were awake, she would never allow him to take such a risk. She would sacrifice herself without hesitation in exchange for his safety. And this was exactly what Luo He couldn't allow. He didn't want to, and couldn't, let Wang Xiaoke bear all the risks alone.

Absolutely not!

"I'm sorry, senior sister, I have to do this." Luo He said softly, hugging Wang Xiaoke tighter, as if wanting to give her more comfort through this action.

Then, he gently placed Wang Xiaoke on the ground, leaning against a huge rock to steady her. He glanced at her again. Her usually heroic face, now unconscious, showed a softness he had never noticed before.

Her face had clear lines, yet it carried a gentleness and beauty that was unique to women. Especially now, her eyebrows and eyes were relaxed, as if she had lost the fierceness she had in battle, and she looked extremely beautiful.

Luo He sighed slightly, turned around quickly, and began to set traps around the cave.

Exploding stones were his most powerful tool at the moment. He carefully placed them in several hidden crevices and tree roots. These stones not only produced a loud noise but also created a strong vibration and smoke, perfect for confusing the enemy.

While setting up traps, he used his spiritual power to create some traces.

The flow of spiritual power was deliberately controlled, extending it to a branch road outside the cave, making it look like the breath left by someone who had escaped in a hurry.

These traces of spiritual power were not obvious, but they were enough to convince the enemy that they were following the right direction. Luo He knew that the cultivators of the Blood Sun Sect would definitely follow these traces, so they split up again and searched in distant locations.

After all, who would have thought at this time that they would not choose to escape, but instead turn around and return to the base camp?

Luo He cleverly placed each Exploding Stone in a location that could trigger a chain reaction. Once an enemy approached, the stone would automatically detonate, creating a massive roar that sounded like someone was fleeing in panic, disrupting their judgment.

Time was running out, but Luo He's movements were still precise and quick.

He constantly simulated the enemy's reactions in his mind, envisioning their possible pursuit paths. Every trap was carefully considered. He knew he wouldn't have a second chance.

The number of Exploding Stones is limited.

After placing the last Exploding Stone, Luo He paused and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. His spiritual power was almost exhausted, but these arrangements were enough to buy them precious time.

The last step is to set up a teleportation symbol in different directions and let it be triggered.

The blasting stone is used as the first layer to confuse others.

If someone observes the fluctuations of spiritual power carefully, they should be able to feel the traces of the use of transmission symbols in different directions. This is the second level.

Both the surface and inner layers are induced!

This will make others think they are running away at a distance.

After finishing all the arrangements, Luo He breathed a sigh of relief and returned to Wang Xiaoke, picking her up again.

Even in her coma, she still looked exhausted. Her long, crimson hair fell down, losing its usual dazzling luster, like a burnt-out flame. Her breathing was light and steady. Although the poison had not yet healed, her vitality remained strong.

Luo He, holding Wang Xiaoke in his arms, carefully retreated to a secluded corner of the cave. There, a huge rock hid the area, obscuring their presence. He suppressed his spiritual power to the lowest point, blending into the darkness, waiting for his enemy to take the bait.

Before long, hurried footsteps and low conversations could be heard in the distance. Luo He held his breath, staring calmly outside the cave, his ears perked up, capturing every whim.

"Is this the place?" A rough voice came with a bit of impatience.

"It seems to be correct. The traces of spiritual power are still left nearby, they must not have run far!" Another person continued with a hint of pride in his tone.

"You sneaked into our Xueyang Sect and dared to leave such traces. You are really courting death!" The third voice sneered, appearing extremely confident.

Luo He snorted coldly in his heart.

This is the most critical moment!

As expected, those people didn't hesitate at all, following the spiritual power traces deliberately left by Luo He, completely unaware of the trap hidden behind them. Their footsteps gradually faded away, but Luo He didn't let his guard down. He held his breath and remained alert.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from afar, and the Exploding Stone instantly exploded. The intense vibrations shook the entire cave, and with them, thick smoke filled the air. The smoke spread rapidly, obscuring vision and shrouding the entire cave in a hazy haze.

Luo He remained calm, waiting quietly. He knew the enemy would be in disarray by now, surely caught off guard by the sudden explosion. Sure enough, soon after, he heard the Blood Sun Sect monks' chatter. Though their voices were muffled, they were still clearly audible in the silent cave.

"Damn it!" a monk cursed angrily, his voice filled with irritation and resentment. "It's a trap! How dare they trick us!"

"It looks like it's going in that direction."

Another voice continued, with a hint of urgency in its tone: "We must chase them, we can't let them get away!"

"Wait." The third voice calmed down a bit. "First, guide us to the direction with traces of spiritual power. Actually, the direction with traces of teleportation talismans is the right one, right? That's it!"

Luo He heard this, a sneer flashing in his eyes. He knew that the spiritual energy traces and traps he had set up had successfully confused the pursuers. They were now completely misled by the explosion of the Exploding Stone and the illusion of the Teleportation Talisman, believing that they had escaped using the talisman. In reality, he and Wang Xiaoke were still hiding in the shadows not far away, quietly waiting for the perfect opportunity.

At this moment, Luo He was completely calm. He knew that the Blood Sun Sect's cultivators would soon follow the "trace" of the teleportation talisman and leave this place. As long as they retreated far enough, he would have the opportunity to quietly leave with Wang Xiaoke and return to the Blood Sun Sect branch to carry out the next plan.

While the men continued their discussion, Luo He once again surveyed his surroundings. Smoke still enveloped the cave, giving him a sense of security. The thick smoke would mask their presence, temporarily preventing them from being detected by the enemy.

A few minutes later, Luo He heard hurried footsteps. The Blood Sun Sect cultivators had clearly made their decision and were quickly chasing after the teleportation talisman's "trace." As their footsteps faded, the air in the cave gradually returned to calm.

Luo He finally breathed a sigh of relief. He hugged Wang Xiaoke tightly in his arms, confirming that the enemy had completely left. Wang Xiaoke was still unconscious, breathing steadily. He still looked weak, but his face revealed a rare tranquility and gentleness.

Luo He gently picked up Wang Xiaoke again and turned to walk towards the other side of the cave. He moved lightly, taking every step very carefully, trying not to make any noise.

His goal was clear - to take Wang Xiaoke back to the Xueyang Sect's branch and use the resources there to gain greater advantages for himself.

Chapter 135: Face it together!

Luo He carried Wang Xiaoke on his back as they walked lightly along the dark mountain path. He remained highly alert and kept a close eye on the surroundings.

As they gradually moved away from the cave, the tension in his heart gradually eased, but he still didn't dare to relax. He took every step carefully, fearing that the slightest sound would attract the attention of the pursuers.

Wang Xiaoke's body was warm and light, pressed against his back. Through the thin clothes, he could feel her slightly trembling heartbeat.

Although she was unconscious at the moment, the feeling of dependence on her aroused a desire to protect her. He quietly quickened his pace, striving to bring her back to a safe place as quickly as possible.

Gradually, Luo He set foot on the path leading to the Xueyang Sect's branch. The sound of the wind and the shadows of the trees all around him seemed to obscure their whereabouts.

He took a deep breath and prayed silently, hoping that the journey would be safe. Behind him was silence, but the sound of the enemy chasing him still echoed in his ears, and the sense of urgency lingered in his heart.

At this moment, Wang Xiaoke's body moved slightly, as if he had regained consciousness.

Luo He's heart trembled, and his spiritual sense sensed her, noticing that her eyelids trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes. A trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, and then she realized her situation and glanced around in panic.

"Where... am I?" She spoke weakly, with a hint of uneasiness in her tone.

"Senior Sister, it's okay. I'm taking you to a place where you can detoxify." Luo He responded with a gentle but firm tone.

Wang Xiaoke then noticed that she was being carried by Luo He, and her surroundings gradually became clearer. She felt his strong back, and her heart was warmed, but she couldn't help but frown.

Then, she bit her lips lightly and made an unprecedented charming sound: "You idiot! Luo He, you are such an idiot!"

Luo He smiled helplessly, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Seeing her wake up, his mood finally calmed down.

Wang Xiaoke should have displayed a strong will and stubbornness, but at this moment her tone was tinged with a touch of naiveté. Her face, though filled with anger, also held a hint of endearing shyness, as if she were blaming him for his recklessness while also expressing worry for him.

"I... I can leave." Wang Xiaoke said softly, with a hint of resistance in his voice.

"Your current situation doesn't allow you to do that, so just stay put."

Luo He replied with a smile, a hint of pampering in his voice.

Despite her resentment, Wang Xiaoke realized her own weakness and chose not to resist. She sighed softly, resting her head on Luo He's back, closing her eyes and feeling his strong heartbeat and warmth.

The feeling of dependence gradually calmed her heart, and she no longer forced herself to do anything.

"What an idiot... It's obviously the best choice to just ignore me completely." She muttered again, with a hint of helplessness and tenderness, as if talking to herself.

Luo He felt her soft sigh, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he thought to himself: As long as she is safe, it doesn’t matter how stupid I am.

What if you never come back?

Then you will never come back.

If we can't go back together, what's the point of going back?

His steps became more determined. Although the road ahead was still dangerous, he had faith and his heart was full of hope for the future.

They tried their best to cure Wang Xiaoke and went back together.

"Luohe..."

A trace of fatigue flashed across Wang Xiaoke's face, but her expression became softer, and she called out softly.

Her normally heroic face now looked incredibly beautiful, like an elegant flower blooming in the tranquil night. Her long hair fluttered gently, seemingly dancing in the breeze, as if embodying an endless amount of tenderness.

"I'm here."

"Luo He."

"Well, I'm here."

"Luo...He!"

I don’t know why at this moment Wang Xiaoke just wanted to call Luo He’s name like this, and keep calling Luo He’s name.

As long as she called out Luo He's name, she would feel at ease.

"Don't worry, I will protect you." Luo He said softly, his tone firm.

Wang Xiaoke smiled faintly, a warm feeling welling up in her heart. Although she was still somewhat dissatisfied, she knew deep down that Luo He would do his best to protect her. She leaned quietly on his back, following his steps, her heart gradually relaxed, and she fell into a deep sleep.

At this moment, their hearts were intertwined with each other. Although they were in danger, in this reliance, the warmth from each other made the fear gradually fade away, leaving only the firm belief and determination to protect each other.

As Luo He carried Wang Xiaoke on his back, his heart filled with unwavering faith, his steps light and powerful, as if echoing the pulse of the earth. Their minds merged quietly at this moment, their tacit understanding making them move forward with even greater resolve in this crisis-ridden moment.

However, just as Luo He was walking with full concentration, he suddenly felt a shudder. The air around him seemed to grow heavy, emitting a strange and unsettling aura. He frowned slightly and glanced around warily, noticing that the scenery had suddenly changed in an instant. The once tranquil mountain path was suddenly filled with an eerie luster, as if some power was brewing.

"What's going on?" Luo He's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but slow down his pace, carefully sensing the movements around him. Wang Xiaoke, who was on his back, seemed to have also sensed this strange aura. Her brows furrowed slightly, and although she was weak, her instinctive alertness remained.

Suddenly, Luo He's vision went white. A hazy mist seemed to cover his vision, blurring the surroundings. It was as if the entire world was engulfed in this strange radiance. The feeling of unease intensified, and Luo He quickly adjusted his breathing, trying to remain calm. He knew that in this situation, any panic could lead to a fatal mistake.

"Senior Sister Wang, did you feel it?" he asked in a low voice, his voice sounding particularly clear in the silent environment.

Wang Xiaoke nodded gently. Although her voice was weak, one could hear the nervousness in her tone: "Yes, there is a strange aura here... Be careful."

Luo He's heart stirred, and he moved even more cautiously. The hazy glow seemed to spread, and the air around him grew hot and oppressive. Luo He felt an invisible pressure coming from all directions, as if something was quietly approaching. His heart tightened, and he secretly decided to protect Wang Xiaoke no matter what.

"We have to speed up," he said firmly, then adjusted his posture, leaning slightly forward to allow Wang Xiaoke to lean more firmly on him. At the same time, a strong desire to protect him surged in his heart, as if everything around them had nothing to do with them, and the goal in front of them was his only belief at the moment.

As they continued forward, the light around them began to flicker, sometimes dimming, sometimes brightening, as if transmitting some kind of signal.

Luo He became more alert, sensing that this road was not simple. He could vaguely sense that it seemed to be some kind of barrier that was hindering their progress.

"It seems like something is watching us." Wang Xiaoke whispered on his back, her voice full of unease. Her hands unconsciously tightened, as if she wanted to grab something. Although she had no strength left, her intuition for danger was still sharp.

"I will protect you, no matter what happens." Luo He swore in his heart, his eyes becoming more determined. He took a deep breath, quickly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and was determined to block all dangers behind him.

However, as they went deeper, the surrounding atmosphere grew stronger, and the air seemed to be filled with some subtle fluctuations. Luo He felt dizzy, as if everything in front of him was spinning. He tried to calm his mind, his eyes still fixed firmly on the front, and he thought to himself, "I can't stop, I absolutely can't stop!"

At this moment, Wang Xiaoke's body trembled slightly, as if she sensed the changes around her. Although she was still weak, a hint of alertness flashed in her eyes. Suppressing her fatigue, she whispered, "There seems to be something flashing ahead... Be careful."

Luo He suddenly looked up and, through the hazy mist, could vaguely see a flickering light ahead. That light stirred unease in him, like some kind of temptation, as if beckoning them closer. Yet, he knew full well that such a situation was not something he could approach lightly.

"Let's go around it first." Luo He immediately adjusted his direction, trying to avoid the mysterious light. He felt Wang Xiaoke slightly tighten her grip on his clothes. Although her body was still weak, at this moment, her heart, like his, was filled with vigilance and anxiety.

Despite Luo He's resolve to lead Wang Xiaoke away from the strange light, the strange and intense sense of crisis didn't dissipate. Instead, it surged like a tide, weighing him down. An air of unease hung in the air, as if everything was reminding them that this road ahead wouldn't be easy.

On Luo He's back, Wang Xiaoke moved his lips gently.
