Chapter 159 Meridian Rupture

Yun Fuzhao: "Instead of worrying about us, Sect Leader should worry more about his own sect, lest it be hollowed out without him even realizing it."

Bai Yan frowned, and before he could figure it out, he heard a loud bang. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw that those madmen outside were trying to forcibly break through the sect's protective formation.

Ignoring everything else, Bai Yan rushed over immediately, shouting, "Stop!"

As soon as he left, Yun Fuzhao helped the unconscious Ge Kui up, and he and Qu Wangzhi supported him on either side as they walked out.

“Yun Fuzhao”.

Hearing the person beside her call her name, Yun Fuzhao turned her head and saw that Qu Wangzhi's face was pale and he looked like he could collapse at any moment.

She was startled, "Master?"

"Leave here as soon as possible."

Yun Fuzhao nodded and lowered her voice, "Yu Ze and the others are outside. We'll be able to leave soon."

He nodded crazily.

Yun Fuzhao dared not delay; Qu Wangzhi's appearance clearly indicated that something was wrong.

She quickened her pace and soon arrived at the front door.

Yu Ze and Qi Huai stopped their attack when they saw Yun Fuzhao.

"Are you two planning to trespass into my Xuantian Sect?"

Bai Yan drew his sword, ready to fight them at any moment.

“What you’re saying, Sect Leader Bai,” Qi Huai said, his gaze falling on Yun Fuzhao behind him. “If you hadn’t detained our Sect Leader, we wouldn’t be in this situation.”

"When did I detain her?" Bai Yan said without any guilt. "She clearly barged in on her own. Besides, we were merely discussing how to deal with Ge Kui's injury, which only took a short while, and you led your disciples to attack our sect?"

"If we had come any later, would you two have led Qingqiu and the Demon Clan to invade my cultivation world?"

Yun Fuzhao spoke up: "Whether it's a genuine discussion or something else, the sect leader knows the answer. I don't wish to pursue today's matter further. Please allow us to leave."

Ge Kui's injuries need immediate treatment, and Yun Fuzhao can no longer get entangled with Bai Yan. As for today's matter, she only said she wouldn't pursue it today, not that she wouldn't pursue it tomorrow.

"Sect Master, are we just going to let them go like this?" one elder said angrily. "That's too easy on them."

Upon hearing this, Yu Ze expressionlessly pulled the little boy hiding behind Song Ying over and said, "Cry a few times."

The boy was particularly terrified, and under his terrifying gaze, his mouth trembled and he burst into tears.

The baby's cry was the sharpest, making Yun Fuzhao's eardrums ache.

Bai Yan frowned and asked the elder, "Then what do you think should be done? The young sect leader is still in their hands. Is Yun Fuzhao's life more important than my son's?"

"Nature is not inferior to it."

"Yu Ze, if my son is harmed by even a single hair, I will make fun of your Demon Realm."

Yu Ze hadn't heard such threatening words in a long time. He curled his lips into a smile, looking rather eager to try. "Really?"

Bai Yan was about to speak when Yun Fuzhao interrupted him: "Sect Leader Bai, I don't have time to waste with you. Activate the sect's protective formation immediately."

Although Bai Yan was dissatisfied, he knew that he couldn't do anything to them today. He raised his hand and activated the sect's protective formation.

Yun Fuzhao helped Ge Kui out of the Xuantian Sect.

Yu Ze also loosened the little boy's collar, and the latter ran towards Bai Yan crying loudly.

"Sect Leader Bai," Yun Fuzhao said, "pay close attention to the people around you, lest you be used as a tool without even realizing it."

After saying that, she stepped onto Wuji and led her disciples away from Xuantian Sect.

Bai Yan paused in comforting his son, his eyes lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

However, after flying only a few dozen meters, Qu Wangzhi coughed up blood and almost fell off the sword.

"Master!"

Yun Fuzhao's heart skipped a beat, and she frantically tried to grab his arm, but she miscalculated Qu Wangzhi's descent speed and ended up grabbing his collar instead.

Qu Wangzhi was nearly strangled to death. He said weakly, "Do you want me to die not fast enough?"

Yun Fuzhao coughed and landed on the spot with him.

Qu Wangzhi's face was ashen, and he vomited a mouthful of blood as soon as he landed, then fell into a deep coma.

Qi Huai: "What happened to him? Did Bai Yan do this?"

Yun Fuzhao didn't know either, but saving him was the priority, so she hurriedly took out a few pills from her storage bag and stuffed them into his mouth.

"Bai Yan didn't make a move; it was the other elders. But..."

They were all subdued by his Yin-Yang Dust Array.

Surely this formation can't be like those in other novels, where it burns life or something, right?

Both of them were half-dead. Yun Fuzhao looked at Qi Huai and said, "Do you still have a teleportation array? We need to go back now."

Qi Huai nodded. "Yes."

With the teleportation array, they returned to the Boundless Sword Sect in no time.

Seeing that Yun Fuzhao was safe and sound, the disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect breathed a sigh of relief.

"Call Sister Zhan over and tell her that something has happened to Master."

"Yes!"

Zhan Miaoyan is not only an alchemist but also a physician. If Qu Wangzhi and Ge Kui are entrusted to her, their lives will likely be safe.

"Don't worry," Qi Huai reassured her, "If it still can't be cured, I can get a doctor from Qingqiu to come."

Yun Fuzhao sighed, looking worriedly at the tightly closed wooden door.

Qi Huai and Yu Ze exchanged a glance, then remained silent and waited with her at the door.

After an incense stick had burned, Zhan Miaoyan came out and shook her head at them.

When Yun Fuzhao saw that her eyes were red, her heart sank. She cautiously asked, "That's all?"

"..." Zhan Miaoyan said, "They are mostly fine now."

With his heart finally at ease, Yun Fuzhao patted his chest, having almost been scared to death.

“Gokwi’s condition is not optimistic. He is too badly injured and will not recover for several months. Moreover,” she said with a serious expression, “his cultivation has been reduced by half.”

"!"

Yun Fuzhao couldn't believe his ears. "What?"

“That’s right, his cultivation level is lower than before he left.”

Before he left, Gokui was also at the Mahayana stage. He's lost half... so now he's only at the Nascent Soul stage?

Qi Huai: "I've only ever heard of cultivation increasing, never of cultivation regressing."

"I don't know the details either. The cultivation methods of wolves are different from those of humans. I have no way of knowing the specifics."

Zhan Miaoyan felt a slight pain in her heart. "And, your master."

Yun Fuzhao could tell from her expression that it wasn't good news. Sure enough, she heard Zhan Miaoyan speak: "Your master's meridians were severely damaged, yet he still forcibly used spiritual energy on top of that. Now... his meridians are completely severed, making him no different from an ordinary person..."

One message after another struck Yun Fuzhao like a thunderbolt, leaving his mind blank.

That's why he didn't make a move then; Yun Fuzhao thought he was using this opportunity to train her.

Unexpectedly, it was because his spiritual energy had been overdrawn.

Is there any possibility of recovery?

Zhan Miaoyan was silent for a moment, then said, "I can't, but I've heard that the number one doctor in Tianshan has miraculous healing skills. Maybe he has a way."
