Yun Xiaoxi's face turned red, feeling both shy and angry, unsure of what to do. She wanted nothing more than to draw her sword and deal with this guy once and for all. However, after thinking it over, she realized that she had just put in a lot of effort to rescue him from Fire Plow and Murong Fei, so killing him seemed unwise.
After contemplating for a moment with her flushed cheeks, Yun Xiaoxi stomped her foot and glared at Ye Yang through gritted teeth.
Ye Yang reached out to support himself against a nearby low tree and shakily stood up. A tearing pain shot through his chest, causing him to gasp in cold air. He cursed Fire Plow for being so ruthless; if he hadn't dodged, he would have been pierced through the heart, which would have been beyond saving.
"Xiaoxi, it's you..." Ye Yang said, leaning against the low tree and panting heavily.
Yun Xiaoxi looked at him calmly and replied, "Yes, it's me. I saw you on the brink of death and pulled your life back from the gates of hell."
Ye Yang smirked and chuckled lightly, "Then... thank you, brave heroine, for saving my life. I am willing to dedicate myself to you..."
Under Yun Xiaoxi's murderous gaze, Ye Yang swallowed the rest of his words and laughed, "Don't be angry; I was just joking. Ah..."
He let out a pained groan that aggravated his wound, causing beads of sweat to form on his forehead.
Yun Xiaoxi found it both amusing and infuriating. She raised her palm, and soon icy energy began to gather. In the next moment, she thrust her arm forward, sending a surge of concentrated energy into Ye Yang. To his surprise, it had a healing effect. The icy energy flowed in, greatly alleviating his pain, making Ye Yang feel much better.
...
"Ah!"
"What’s wrong now?!"
"Tianhe! Tianhe is still fighting that Purple-Clad Old Man..."
"No, the battle is over."
Yun Xiaoxi's expression was calm: "Don't worry, Zhang Tianhe is not dead, just significantly weakened. It seems he has also entered the Stellar Realm. Hmm, such weak Starlight Power, truly a disgrace for a Starry Sky Expert..."
Ye Yang felt a bit awkward: "Xiaoxi, take me to see Tianhe; I can't move anymore..."
"Okay!"
Yun Xiaoxi reached out and grabbed Ye Yang by the collar from behind. With a surge of Starlight Power, she lifted him into the sky. Suddenly, a group of Subordinates galloped over, and Wang Lie brandished his long knife, loudly saying, "Miss, please put down my lord..."
Ye Yang felt somewhat embarrassed: "Xiaoxi, you don't have to carry me like this. After all... I'm still the City Lieutenant of Liang City. How can I maintain my dignity in front of my subordinates like this?"
"Oh? You've been promoted?" Yun Xiaoxi glanced back with interest.
"Yes!"
"How much silver did you spend to buy it?"
"I..."
As they spoke, Yun Xiaoxi had already swept over the jungle, revealing a scene of devastation. The area had experienced intense combat, with terrifying deep craters on the ground and the entire forest flattened. One could imagine how fierce the battle had been.
On a low mound stood a powerful figure in a Purple Robe, holding a long knife with its hilt planted in the ground to support his body. He had wide-open eyes and an expression filled with unwillingness and anger. A Heavy Hammer had pierced through his chest and was deeply embedded in the ground.
Clearly, this was the Cloud Master sent by the Redstone Alliance, who had already been killed, eyes wide open in death!
Shifting his gaze, Zhang Tianhe was leaning against a piece of blue stone, looking disheveled and covered in wounds, not much better off than Ye Yang. Especially a scar on his back that almost spanned his entire spine; if it had gone any deeper, even the strong physique of the Beast God Valley heir might not have survived. Zhang Tianhe's arms were also riddled with jagged knife wounds. The Cloud Master, being a Starry Sky Level expert, had exceptional swordsmanship, and Zhang Tianhe must have suffered quite a bit. In the end, he had taken a hit to deliver a fatal strike against the Cloud Master. Fortunately, he succeeded!
“Tianhe!”
A trace of Fire God True Qi surged within Ye Yang, and he struggled to float down to the ground, reaching out to support Zhang Tianhe's shoulder. Upon testing, he found that Zhang Tianhe's True Qi was nearly depleted, his eyes vacant. However, upon seeing Ye Yang, Zhang Tianhe's eyes immediately brightened, and he forced a painful smile: “Zi Yu, you’re not dead? Then... that’s good, that’s good...”
Ye Yang couldn't help but laugh heartily: “Yeah, as long as I'm alive. I thought we were both going to meet our end...”
Yun Xiaoxi remained silent nearby. When Zhang Tianhe glanced at her, he seemed to realize that it was because of her presence that Ye Yang had managed to escape from the siege of three Starry Sky Experts. So he said nothing and merely nodded.
“By the way, what about Pang Jing?” Zhang Tianhe suddenly asked.
Ye Yang immediately raised his eyebrows and said, “I almost forgot about him! Hmph, Pang Jing's aura is still nearby; he hasn't gone far. Wait a moment!”
“What are you going to do?” Yun Xiaoxi asked in surprise.
Ye Yang sat cross-legged beside Zhang Tianhe, his internal True Qi surging as he replied: “I’ll take some time to recover my energy. After ten minutes, once I regain thirty percent of my strength, I’ll go deal with Pang Jing, seek justice for the people of Seven Star Town, and let that old thief know that karma will catch up with him!”
As he spoke, Ye Yang closed his eyes. Flames swirled around him but did not burn Yun Xiaoxi or Zhang Tianhe. Instead, they felt an incredible warmth and comfort, which left both of them astonished and secretly amazed at how unique Ye Yang’s cultivation of the Flame Principle truly was!
...
While recovering, Ye Yang asked: “Xiaoxi, when you returned to your sect last time, how did you end up near Liang City again? Did you come specifically to find us?”
Yun Xiaoxi leaned against the blue stone, holding a long sword, and said lightly, "Well, after responding to the master's command, my master gave me a new task."
"Oh? Last time it was to investigate the cause of Qin General's death, so what is it this time?"
"To protect the Fire God Clan..."
"Ah?"
Yun Xiaoxi had already guessed that Ye Yang would be very surprised, so she chuckled lightly and said, "The Qin Dynasty is on the verge of collapse, and the world is about to fall into chaos, filled with unstable factors. Recently, Serene Gate's spies have discovered that a mysterious force is seeking the lifeblood of the Six Great Guardian Clans. It seems they are searching for something, and since the Fire God Clan is the leader of the Six Great Guardian Clans, I chose to stay in Liang City and observe the changes."
Ye Yang frowned and said, "A mysterious force seeking the lifeblood of the Six Great Guardian Clans? This... could it be related to the Redstone Alliance's attempts to steal from the Fire God Clan?"
"What? The Redstone Alliance plans to steal from the Fire God Clan?"
"Yes!" Ye Yang opened his eyes wide and said, "At that time, Fire Plow communicated secretly with Peng Feng. Peng Feng promised to pay the price of the Fire God Clan Tomb. I believe what the Redstone Alliance wants must be hidden within the clan's tomb. Perhaps this is related to your mission!"
Yun Xiaoxi pondered for a moment and said, "It seems there must be something that has caught the Redstone Alliance's interest; otherwise, heh heh, indeed, chaos is about to ensue..."
