Dong Shuye originally wanted to search for Lu Ye's corpse, but the information in the battlefield mark had thrown his mind into chaos. How could he care about Lu Ye?
Cao Ye sent another message. It was just three simple words.
"Danger, return quickly!"
He had received Cao Ye's message before and knew that Xuan Sect cultivators had come to attack Jiuxing Sect's station, but he did not panic because attacking a sect's station was not a simple matter. According to his estimation, even if Xuan Sect sent out all their forces, the Great Array of their station could last for a day or two, which was enough time for him to kill Lu Ye and rush back.
But Cao Ye actually sent such a message in such a short time, which showed that the situation in the station was extremely bad.
He hurried back and at the same time sent a message to Cao Ye to ask about the situation, but there was no reply at all.
…
Below the pool, Lu Ye was in a daze, his Spirit Qi almost dried up, and there was a large amount of blood around him, as well as some broken limbs and pieces of flesh.
After entering the water, he found that there was someone under the water, and from the looks of it, that person seemed to be collecting something under the water.
When they saw each other, they were both startled.
Lu Ye did not have the time to explain anything to this person. After stabilizing himself at the bottom of the water, he immediately activated the Defensive Spirit Rune above his head. Then, a golden arc broke through the water and attacked.
The strange cultivator didn't even make a sound before he was cut into pieces. It could be said that he had suffered an unexpected disaster. The defensive spirit pattern above Lu Ye's head also shattered after blocking a slash. Fortunately, the remaining golden arcs didn't hit him.
The attack soon stopped, but he did not dare to poke his head out because he could not determine Dong Shuye's movements. Enduring the exhaustion and pain all over his body, he dived underwater for dozens of breaths until he could no longer hold his breath. Only then did he emerge from the water in a sorry state.
He only took a deep breath and quickly dived again, continuing to move forward under the water with great difficulty.
After doing this several times, Lu Ye was exhausted, but to his relief, Dong Shuye did not seem to attack him again.
A quarter of an hour later, when Lu Ye emerged from the water again, a strong force suddenly came from behind him. He had been hit by something.
His back was already injured, and his condition was extremely bad, so this hit almost made him faint.
Lu Ye instinctively thought that Dong Shuye had come to kill him again. He drew the long saber from his waist and slashed back.
There was no one there, only a piece of dead wood that had been cut into two by him. It was this piece of dead wood that had collided with him.
He looked around and could no longer see Dong Shuye's figure.
Lu Ye held the saber in his hand in a daze. 'Where is this guy?' A dignified Seventh Order cultivator had chased after him and forced him into a dead end. There was no reason for him to just give up like this …
But after searching for a long time, he still didn't see Dong Shuye. He was sure that this guy had really left.
He quickly realized something. Previously, a cultivator had been killed by Dong Shuye at the bottom of the pool. Did that guy think that he had already succeeded?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was not small. Furthermore, the Celestial Sect of Wonders was already attacking the Jiuxing Sect's base. Dong Shuye probably did not have the mood to carefully investigate the situation underwater. After confirming that he had killed one person, he hurriedly left.
Was that why he was able to escape?
After sorting out his thoughts, Lu Ye relaxed. Endless exhaustion and pain swept over him, and his body couldn't help but sink into the water.
He hurriedly raised his hand and grabbed the piece of dead wood, struggling to float up.
His consciousness was hazy, and he could faint at any time. However, Lu Ye knew that if he fainted at this time, it would be very difficult for him to wake up. He was seriously injured this time.
His right hand trembled as he took out a jade bottle from the storage pouch at his waist. He opened the bottle and poured all of the healing pills into his mouth, chewing and swallowing them down without caring how many healing pills were in the bottle.
He wanted to switch his Secret Art to the Gluttonous Feast to speed up the absorption of pill energy, but the Spirit Qi in his body was almost exhausted. His Spirit Acupoints had dried up, and his Golden Cicada Carefree Secret Art had stopped circulating. How could he spare any energy to switch Secret Arts?
He could only use all his strength to tie a knot on the dead wood.
[Don't drown to death … That would be a joke.]
As this last thought emerged, Lu Ye's vision was shrouded in darkness, and he completely lost consciousness.
…..
When he opened his eyes again, Lu Ye found himself lying face down on a bed. After a short moment of absent-mindedness, an indescribable pain swept over him.
What surprised him was that there was a person sitting next to him. A faint fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, and from the corner of his eyes, he could see that the person sitting next to him was a woman.
Not only did he feel pain on his back, but he also felt a burst of numbness. In addition, there was a slight fluctuation of Spirit Qi and a constantly flickering dark green radiance …
[Was I saved by someone?] He remembered that before he lost consciousness, he used his clothes to tie the dead wood. After that, he should have drifted with the flow, but now he appeared in such a place. It was obvious that someone had saved him.
He didn't make any sound, because he didn't know who had saved him. He only quietly sensed his own condition.
It was very bad. His Spirit Qi hadn't recovered, and his injuries were serious. Not only was there a deep cut on his back, but his chest and hands were also burned.
This kind of injury would be fatal to an ordinary person, but he was a cultivator now, so he could still hold on for a while. Moreover, he had taken a bottle of healing pills before he fainted, so the healing pills must have played a role.
But the situation still wasn't optimistic.
"Your breathing has changed." A pleasant voice suddenly entered his ears. It was very gentle. "It's normal to be vigilant towards strangers. But if I wanted to kill you, you would have died long ago."
Lu Ye couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. For a moment, he was speechless, not knowing what to say.
A small white hand suddenly stretched out in front of him. The woman said, "Although I saved you, I still want to confirm which side you belong to."
As she spoke, a light blue radiance appeared on the back of the small hand. She was actively revealing which side she belonged to.
This made Lu Ye's heart relax. He slightly circulated the remaining Spirit Qi in his body, and a light blue radiance appeared on the back of his hand.
"Then I didn't save the wrong person," the woman said in a gentle voice.
But Lu Ye was sure that if he hadn't revealed the glow of his Battlefield Imprint, or if the light he revealed was red, the woman would have killed him!
In the Spirit Stream Battlefield, the difference in sides was a reason to kill. There was no room for sympathy or mercy.
The itchiness on his back became more obvious, and the dark green radiance flickered more frequently.
After a while, the Spirit Qi fluctuations on his back stopped. Then, the woman smeared something on his wound, causing Lu Ye to sweat profusely from the pain.
After smearing it, she stuck something on Lu Ye's back. Lu Ye couldn't see it, but he guessed it was something like a plaster.
After doing this, the woman stood up and said, "You're seriously injured. Don't move around for now. It'll affect your recovery."
"Thank you!"
The woman said, "Ling Yu found you and brought you back." Then, she walked away.
It was only now that Lu Ye saw the woman's side profile. He didn't know if it was because he had received a favor from someone, but he felt that this woman was as beautiful as a fairy. Her chest was full, and her hands were placed in front of her stomach. Her steps were dignified.
