Without waiting until Xiao Shuxiang saw his face-Wang Zhao again launched a huge acid attack.

!!

Xiao Shuxiang was startled, but quickly took out a Moving Mirror as a shield. It was just that in the second when he focused on his moving mirror-another attack came from behind.

Lan Guan Zhi did not remain silent, he darted with Shanghai in his hands. The attack was indeed not as big as before and did not contain any deadly acid, but it was still Lan Guan Zhi who was in this kind of position was difficult to hold it for too long.

The two attacks were just a distraction for Wang Zhao to escape. The young man indeed did not want to deal with Xiao Shuxiang right now because this was not the time yet.

However, Wang Zhao regretted not being able to kill Lan Guan Zhi even though he did not regret it too much. It was because he had already given something better than death to Xiao Shuxiang's good friend.

"L-Yuan!" Xiao Shuxiang held onto Lan Guan Zhi's body which was almost pushed firmly back. He was about to dart at the person who was already his good friend's opponent, but Lan Guan Zhi stopped him.

"A-Yuan, this can't be allowed."

"It-it doesn't need to be pursued,"

!!

"L-Yuan!" Xiao Shuxiang was startled when Lan Guan Zhi vomited blood and almost fell down. He tried to hold his friend's weight with worry.

"Don't chase," Lan Guan Zhi's voice was low. He had always had a bad habit of swallowing his blood back down his throat, but right now he could not swallow it anymore.

Lan Guan Zhi was using too much spiritual energy and had actually overused Shanghai. His condition was now even exacerbated at the pain in his eyes due to the effects of the star mirror eyes that he had yet to master.

?!

Xiao Shuxiang felt Lan Guan Zhi's body getting heavier, even Shanghai was released from his friend's hands and the heirloom began to turn into a rusty old sword as usual.

"Lan'Er's? Dude?" Xiao Shuxiang panicked as his good friend's breathing grew weaker. He could not even see Lan Guan Zhi's face as this young man hugged him and he himself did have to support the other's body so as not to fall.

Lan Guan Zhi buried her face in the neck of another subject and whispered, "Don't go.. Stay right here.."

Xiao Shuxiang knew it was not good to just shut up and let his opponent go. But this was also the first time that a person like Lan Guan Zhi had embraced and tried to stop him from pursuing the enemy. In addition, the condition of this friend does not look very good.

"I'm not leaving. We'll take care of your wounds first, come on." Xiao Shuxiang took Shanghai and brought Lan Guan Zhi to safety.

On the other hand, Yu Zhuan Shi who was one of the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect was still seen fighting against several members of the Dragon Lotus Pavilion.

Not only him, but also Yun Qiao Yue and Zhang Xiao Lian. The two girls worked together against a man with great strength. Even Yun Qiao Yue who was one of the six best disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect was seriously injured.

It was close to Yun Qiao Yue losing her life if not helped by Zhang Xiao Lian. The new conditions were completely brought under control when the new Elder Jing Shang Yu finished with his fight came to his aid.

Liu Wei Lin was indeed using his ability in manipulating spirits to trap opponents, but that did not mean that there was no one else to help him anymore other than Dao Fang An. He was clearly not allowed to take on the role alone by the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect.

"Go. Before we really don't see you guys anymore as members of the Dragon Lotus Pavilion," Jing Shang Yu let out a cold voice. He drew his sword towards the remaining five opponents.

Yun Qiao Yue herself gasped when she heard the remark, she looked at Jing Shang Yu and said softly. "Elder, you... Let them go?"

"We are not Black Stream cultivators, we are not recklessly killing the lives of others."

"But, Elders..." Yun Qiao Yue objected, but she was even more shocked when the members of the Dragon Lotus Pavilion started darting away after hearing Jing Shang Yu's words.

Yun Qiao Yue said, "They will definitely go and bring more people here."

"If so, we just have to deal with it one more time."

!

Yun Qiao Yue gasped, but could not do anything about it. The worry was clearly visible on his face. He knew full well that if the members of the Dragon Lotus Pavilion were to return, then they would definitely bring in members whose cultivation practices were higher. Right now, things are really messed up. Especially if they come with new powers.

Jing Shang Yu knew about it and also knew about the risks of his decision not taking out all opponents. He felt that if they killed warriors who were already unable to fight, then what was the difference this sect had with the Black Stream Sect? The Dragon Lotus Pavilion would definitely understand its intent, that too if the sect could be wise.

Just like Jing Shang Yu, Liu Wei Lin who faced the three members of the Dragon Lotus Pavilion was like that. He had absolutely no intention of killing his opponent despite facing the person who was desperate to finish him off. Liu Wei Lin let them go, although to be honest the opponent he was facing was given no small amount of injuries.

Liu Wei Lin waved his fan and sighed, "It makes me tired. At least they weren't petty people who attacked with secret weapons,"

Liu Wei Lin noticed his surroundings were so messy. He took a breath before feeling a throbbing on his head. Although it looks like he can still walk and behave as usual, but honestly he is hiding his physical and mental condition at this time.

"I have to see Shizun. I heard an explosion. I hope he is fine," Liu Wei Lin walked away and intended for the place where the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect were hidden.

There was a barrier seal in the forest of the western part of the Cloud Sea Sect, where it hid two large buildings that were each two-storied. A location where some of the disciples of this sect were displaced. Of course some of the other disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect were in the residence of each patriarch, not a few who were out on missions.

While at the disciples' shelter and going to the treatment room, Liu Wei Lin gasped to see that not only was Dao Fang An present-but Xiao Shuxiang as well.

"Brother Xiao?" Liu Wei Lin opened his voice and it made Xiao Shuxiang spontaneously turn his head.

"Brother Xiao, my soul mate. How did you get here?" Liu Wei Lin hurried over to Xiao Shuxiang and shook his head, "No. Didn't you just leave me?"

Xiao Shuxiang was just about to speak, but was suddenly shocked when Liu Wei Lin directly hugged him. Dao Fang An who was also at that place gasped in shock, while a few disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect looked flabbergasted.

"Brother Liu, what are you doing?" Xiao Shuxiang blinked a few times. There was a lot he wanted to ask, but Liu Wei Lin actually did this to him.

"Brother Xiao, you have the heart." Liu Wei Lin let go of his embrace and looked pouted, "What do you consider our relationship? How can you leave without any notice. You know, I was heartbroken for a long time."

"Geez, Brother Liu. I-i-!" Xiao Shuxiang was just about to reply when suddenly his hand was grabbed and pulled back. He did not even foresee this attack and fell down by hitting someone.

!!

Dao Fang An was so shocked that he got up from his seat. The figure that attracted Xiao Shuxiang was none other than Lan Guan Zhi and the young man looked coldly at Liu Wei Lin as if showing a clear dislike for the young man.

The Cloud Sea Sect disciple who examined Lan Guan Zhi was also shocked. He stood up with both hands shut while looking at the situation between Liu Wei Lin, Xiao Shuxiang, and Lan Guan Zhi.

"Brothers... Xiao?" Liu Wei Lin blinked.

"He's not yours." Lan Guan Zhi's voice was cold, yet full of affirmation.

Xiao Shuxiang himself was stunned before his facial expression changed. He blinked a few times and nodded, "What is this? What was? What situation am I in right now?"

"La-Lan'Er," Xiao Shuxiang was aware of his somewhat awkward position because his face was on the chest of his good friend's field.

Xiao Shuxiang slowly woke up and looked at Lan Guan Zhi's face. His forehead throbbed as he watched the blood run down the corner of his best friend's lips. He yelled, "You're what? Your condition is now like this and you are still using your energy to pull me in? Don't you care about your life at all, huh? You're acting childish."

"..................."

Seeing Lan Guan Zhi just staring at him without saying anything made Xiao Shuxiang not know what to do with this person anymore. He clucked and reached out to wipe the blood on the corner of his friend's lips.

"Look at you. What exactly is it that you are?" Xiao Shuxiang turned his head towards the Cloud Sea Sect disciple and cursed, "Why are you standing still like that. Let's treat the wound first"

"No way,"

?!

Xiao Shuxiang was startled, as well as Liu Wei Lin and Elder Dao Fang An. They had just heard Lan Guan Zhi's somewhat strange voice.

"There's... What was wrong with Lan'Er," Xiao Shuxiang watched this young man well. He even used both hands and rubbed his best friend's face.

"L-Yuan. Did your head hit something, man?" Xiao Shuxiang wanted to make sure something and the next incident came back to get his heart tested.

Lan Guan Zhi's hands stretched out and touched the hands of another subject. He looked at the young man before him and spoke like a whimper of a pampered child.

"I'm wounded... It's sick.."

!!!

Xiao Shuxiang was now one hundred percent certain that the figure in front of him was unlike the Lan Guan Zhi he was familiar with. Her best friend is in a strange condition and I don't know what it is. It was not even him who felt it, but also the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect, Liu Wei Lin, including Dao Fang An.

"Te-Elder Dao.." Xiao Shuxiang became nervous as he turned his head towards Dao Fang An. A pale expression was seen on his face even as he asked, "This friend of mine... What happened to her?"

Dao Fang An watched Lan Guan Zhi and rubbed his chin. He seemed to be thinking, even Liu Wei Lin wondered.

"Mr Xiao, let me check Young Master Lan's condition even more"

"No way," Lan Guan Zhi interrupted and made the disciple of the Cloud Sea Sect flinch. He looked at one subject and then said, "I... Just wanted you,"

!!!

Xiao Shuxiang's head was like being doused in cold water. How could the character of his best friend turn into this one scare? Seriously! It's a big deal. It was really bad because it happened to a Lan Guan Zhi.

The problem was, Xiao Shuxiang's reaction was obvious as he had previously checked his good friend's pulse-but both blood flow and spiritual energy... His friend is in good shape. So he doesn't know what's really going on.

"I'm starting to get scared," Xiao Shuxiang looked at Dao Fang An and asked, "Is there nothing you can think of, Old Bangka? There was no way Lan'Er could behave like this. There must be something wrong with him,"

"I don't know at all,"

Liu Wei Lin waved his fan and started talking to Lan Guan Zhi, "Young Master Lan. What you-!"

Lan Guan Zhi's suddenly sharp eyes on her made Liu Wei Lin spontaneously pursed her lips.

"Brother Xiao, you better ask him. He seemed to be willing to answer you," Liu Wei Lin waved his fan softly.

Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his face before looking back at Lan Guan Zhi. He exhaled, "For now it's best to focus on the wound first. Brother Liu, you don't look good either. Rest,"

Liu Wei Lin sighed, "Yeah.. I think I should take a break.."

Liu Wei Lin was curious. Even when he started sitting on one of the beds and leaning-the-view his eyes continued to point at Lan Guan Zhi.

He also noticed when Xiao Shuxiang gave Lan Guan Zhi a homemade pill. Another shock returned and this time created an unusual fanfare.

Liu Wei Lin was flabbergasted when he saw how the forehead-clad figure ate the pill given to him directly from Xiao Shuxiang's hand. Liu Wei Lin coughed and stared at the horror at the unusual situation, even Xiao Shuxiang looked as if he had gotten an impromptu mental attack.
