Li Xiaonan took Ling Kui's hand and said, "Let's go out. Would you come back to the Outer Academy with me?"
Ling Kui didn't look at him but nodded, her face glowing with a crimson hue that seemed as if it could bleed.
Li Xiaonan grinned foolishly and flew back to Dragon Valley hand in hand with Ling Kui.
As soon as they arrived at Dragon Valley, both felt an unprecedented sense of pressure.
Li Xiaonan thought to himself, Oh no! I forgot about Xing Su! I wonder who has come this time.
Li Xiaonan's guess was correct. Although he had nearly killed Xing Su, the old adage held true: a dying camel is bigger than a horse. Just before fainting, Xing Su finally regained consciousness and crushed a communication talisman. The message reached Bai Nuo, the Azure Dragon Hall Elder who was in seclusion at the Outer Academy, and upon receiving it, he opened his eyes wide in anger and flew directly to Fangcun Mountain.
The cultivators stationed at Azure Dragon Hall were startled, thinking someone had intruded into the Outer Academy, causing chaos all around.
When Bai Nuo arrived at Fangcun Mountain and found the half-dead Xing Su, he was furious to the point of nearly exploding, his bones cracking and white hair flying wildly.
Once a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, as long as their flesh isn't severely damaged, they can still recover their body through later cultivation.
Xing Su was fortunate; he had only lost two legs due to Li Xiaonan's torment. His heart and brain had not suffered significant damage, so as long as he secluded himself for over a decade, his body could return to its original state.
Bai Nuo held the battered Xing Su and said through gritted teeth, "Good! Very good! Even my disciple Bai Nuo can be harmed!"
He then took out a Holy Life Pill that he had purchased from Qing Dan Dao Ren. This pill had effects similar to the Essence Nurturing Pill but was an upgraded version. Once Xing Su consumed it, his flesh would automatically begin to heal.
After taking the pill, Xing Su slowly regained consciousness. Upon seeing his master, he excitedly recounted everything that had happened.
Bai Nuo nodded, looking at Xing Su with a complex expression. He knew very well that his true disciple would not make any progress in cultivation in the short term; it would take at least three to five years for him to fully recover. More importantly, this severe injury would undoubtedly affect Xing Su's state of mind, directly impacting his future path in cultivation.
Bai Nuo clenched his fist and said to Xing Su, "You focus on healing; I'll take care of that brat!"
This encounter not only affected Xing Su but also had a significant impact on Bai Nuo. At this moment, Bai Nuo was already afflicted by an Inner Demon, and to eliminate this Inner Demon, he had to get rid of Li Xiaonan!
After ensuring that Xing Su was settled, Bai Nuo spread his divine sense over a wide area, determined to find Li Xiaonan and his companions in Dragon Valley.
A fierce glint flashed in his eyes as he flew eastward.
Li Xiaonan tightened his grip on Ling Kui's hand and said, "This is all my doing; you should leave first!" With that, he reluctantly let go of her hand.
Ling Kui glanced at him and silently took his hand again, her face flushed. "There's no time! He's coming. His cultivation is very high; he should be a master at the Tribulation Stage."
"Hmph! Are you Li Xiaonan? Good! Very good! Excellent!"
As soon as Ling Kui finished speaking, Bai Nuo appeared before the two of them.
Li Xiaonan licked his lips and cupped his fists in greeting. "May I ask who you are, senior?"
"I am Bai Nuo, Elder of the Azure Dragon Hall from the Outer Academy, and the master of Xing Su, whom you injured!"
Li Xiaonan squinted his eyes and sighed inwardly: So Xing Su didn't die after all; he even stirred up such an old man. This must be what Master's Wife meant when she said that Xing Su has powerful people behind him. Well, I've already gotten myself into trouble; what can I do? It's just that I haven't had my fill with girls yet. Suddenly, I'm thinking about Ling Kui's little bunny on her chest—should I ask her to let me touch it before I die?
At this moment, Li Xiaonan was lost in thought, while Bai Nuo observed him with a different understanding.
Bai Nuo thought to himself: This kid is indeed bold; he remains unafraid in the face of a strong enemy. Too bad he's about to die!
“ Ling Kui, you should step aside.”
Ling Kui bit her lip and shook her head.
Li Xiaonan sighed, extending a clawed hand toward Ling Kui's chest, but ultimately changed direction and wrapped his arm around her slender waist.
“Go on, trust me!” Li Xiaonan gently pushed at Ling Kui's waist.
Once Ling Kui had moved away, Li Xiaonan smiled and said, “Elder Bai, this is all a misunderstanding. Today, I will accompany you back to the Outer Academy for judgment.”
Bai Nuo frowned and coldly replied, “Hmph! You need not argue! Today, I will end you here!”
Li Xiaonan's expression remained calm; death was not a big deal to him. After all, he had died once before, so his fear of death was minimal. Yet at this moment, he felt a twinge of reluctance to leave the Starry Illusion Continent.
He had been in this magical land for nearly half a year. Here, he had loving parents, a caring master and senior brother from Master's Wife, a beautiful sister-in-law, and most importantly, his fiancée— Ling Kui —who had shared life and death with him.
If he claimed to be completely unafraid of death, that would be a lie. Once someone has attachments, they inevitably fear death! So Li Xiaonan took action, bringing forth all the skills he possessed.
The bullets of the Desert Eagle had been replaced with Lingxiao Pills. Unfortunately, when they struck Bai Nuo, it felt as if they were hitting cotton—barely even scratching him.
Bai Nuo looked at Li Xiaonan with derision. “Is this all you can do? This is how you managed to injure my disciple?”
Li Xiaonan silently lamented; although Bai Nuo had not attacked him yet, the psychological pressure he felt was already beyond his limits.
Li Xiaonan thought to himself: If only I had a decoy on hand! I might not be able to kill this old man, but perhaps I could escape! Why is there no High-Quality Treasure in the Mother of the Mountain's tomb? Looking back now, I realize I'm just a broke fool—and a dying one at that.
Li Xiaonan flailed about like an actor in a grand performance while Bai Nuo stood coldly in midair, watching him make his final desperate struggles.
Bai Nuo raised his right hand slightly. "Kid, I've already given you a chance! Now you can go die!" A beam of white light shot toward Li Xiaonan, who felt as if he had been locked on and couldn't evade it at all.
Li Xiaonan let out a muffled groan as he fell from the sky. Inner Thoughts: Sigh! Is this how I die? I wonder if this time it's for real? Maybe I'll turn back into that short, poor Li Xiaonan again. Is it Ling Kui? Her chest is so soft and big! So this is what it feels like to crash into a girl's chest; it's really nice! Huh? That seems to be Master’s Wife. Am I hallucinating...?
As Li Xiaonan lost consciousness, he still wore a faint smile on his lips.
Ling Kui held him tightly, tears streaming down her face, tracing the contours of his smiling visage.
She smiled too, finally understanding what love was. She finally grasped why her mother felt like the happiest woman in the world until her dying breath. It turned out that when someone occupies your heart, you share in their joys and sorrows.
She sighed inwardly: Unfortunately, everything is too late. I haven't had the chance to treat him well before he...
Ling Kui looked at the two figures approaching in the distance and smiled resolutely, tightening her embrace around Li Xiaonan. She whispered, "Xiao Nan, don't be afraid. I'll be with you soon."
The two figures were none other than Li Xiaonan's master Yu Jizi and Master's Wife Huang Yan.
Yu Jizi cursed, "Just a step too late!"
Bai Nuo noticed the Soul Ring on Li Xiaonan's hand and realized he was Yu Jizi's disciple. However, his Inner Demon had already manifested; he had to kill Li Xiaonan.
He knew that Yu Jizi and Huang Yan had come to seek justice for Li Xiaonan, so he spoke first: "Li Xiaonan colluded with Fangcun Mountain's Demoness and harmed my disciple. I have judged him."
Huang Yan was furious and was about to act when Yu Jizi held her back, his expression stern. "Huang girl, don't be impulsive. You can't defeat him; saving Li Xiaoyang is more important."
Turning to Bai Nuo, he forced a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "So Elder Bai is a dog’s servant; truly a dog meddling in others' affairs!" After saying that, he took Huang Yan and flew toward Li Xiaonan.
Bai Nuo raised an eyebrow slightly, suppressing his anger without uttering a word as he flew toward Xing Su's location.
Ling Kui held Li Xiaonan tightly, staring at the two people standing in front of her, biting her lip hard.
Yu Jizi said coldly, "Demoness! Let him go!"
Huang Yan, having been through similar experiences, noticed Ling Kui's sorrowful expression and said to Yu Jizi, "Crazy person, be a little nicer!"
"Miss, he is Li Xiaonan's master. Please let go of Xiao Nan so we can check his injuries."
Ling Kui nodded blankly and released Li Xiaonan.
Yu Jizi extended his consciousness into Li Xiaonan's body and saw that his meridians were completely severed and his organs ruptured.
Both Ling Kui and Huang Yan closely watched Yu Jizi's expression as it grew increasingly grave. His right hand clenched into a fist, the knuckles turning pale and cracking ominously.
He shook his head slowly and said, "Xiao Nan's Golden Core has already reached great perfection. If his meridians were intact, I could trigger his Golden Core and force him to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage. Now… unless we have Qing Dan Dao Ren's Yuan Ying Pill to help Li Xiaoyang break through from the late Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul Stage. Otherwise..."
Yu Jizi was a poor old man without such resources. He had already made up his mind; if it came down to it, he would rather not transcend tribulation and ascend than let Azure Dragon Hall remain in peace!
Huang Yan had some magical artifacts and a few pills on hand, but they were only common goods; she certainly did not possess any top-tier pills like the Yuan Ying Pill.
The Yuan Ying Pill was Qing Dan Dao Ren's masterpiece, capable of allowing a Foundation Stage Cultivator to instantly cultivate into a Yuan Ying. It was an incredibly miraculous and extraordinary pill, and none of the four had it at this moment.
Tears streaked down Ling Kui's face as she coldly asked, "Does that mean if Xiao Nan breaks through his current cultivation level, he will be fine?"
Yu Jizi sighed and nodded helplessly.
Ling Kui said softly, "I can save him."
Yu Jizi and Huang Yan were both taken aback. Yu Jizi slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Alright! You save her!"
He had never been opposed to Ling Kui, and now he understood what his disciple must have gone through with this woman. He felt compelled to witness it himself.
Ling Kui's face flushed red as she lowered her head and said, "This... isn't the right place."
Yu Jizi and Huang Yan carefully placed Li Xiaonan in a dry cave, the very cave where Li Xiaonan had discovered the egg that triggered a series of tragic events.
Ling Kui bit her lip and asked, "Could you both step outside for a moment?"
Yu Jizi was taken aback but was pulled out by Huang Yan.
Ling Kui looked at Li Xiaonan and smiled, "Xiao Nan... you won't be harmed... I... will save you!" With that, she removed Li Xiaonan's upper garment and sat behind her, blushing as she exposed her bare upper body, placing her hands on Li Xiaonan's back.
Then, she began to channel her Yuan Ying into Li Xiaonan's body using the techniques from the Harmony Technique.
The Harmony Technique was another method found within the Jade Eye Tablet that Li Xiaonan had discovered in Ling Kui's mother's tomb, which was also a legacy of Ling Kui's father, Obedient Dragon II.
At that moment, no one knew that the egg within the Soul Ring was emitting a strange glow.
