"Go back and tell your Supreme Headmaster that I, Ling Xian, am now the protector of Yu Xun Zhen."

He made this statement coldly, and his tone allowed no questions.

Ling Xian?

Hearing these two words, the young man was first startled. And then shock flooded his eyes.

The Ling Xian today was in the limelight, and few people were unaware of him. Other than Yu Xun Zhen, who had been locked up by the Faction of the City of Qing and was not allowed to have any outside contact, nobody else in Yunzhou was unaware of him.

Therefore, the moment the name Ling Xian entered his ears, the young man immediately froze. His eyes were flowing with utter awe, and his body was uncontrollably shivering.

It was obvious just how surprised he was at this.

This was normal. In the entire Yunzhou, very few people can keep their calm after hearing this name.

Yet at this moment, the young man was hearing this name and was standing opposite of Ling Xian. How could he not be trembling inside?

Remembering all about Ling Xian's rumored terror, his legs began to shiver as he forced a grin, "N… Nice to finally meet Mister Ling."

"There is no need to speak bullsh*t to me. I give you 10 seconds to disappear from my sight." Ling Xian glared at him, "Or else I will personally pay your Faction a visit rather than waiting for you to pass on the message."

The young man shuddered and continued to force his smile, "Of course, of course, I am going, I am going."

"Hold on."

Ling Xian opened his mouth slowly, "Make sure to deliver my message. If your Supreme Headmaster doesn't want to listen to what I asked, then tell him to clean his neck and wait for me."

"Yes, yes, I will for sure pass on the message." The young man's heart quivered. Against a rumored powerhouse, he couldn't find the tiniest courage to protest.

Seeing this, Ling Xian impatiently waved around his hand, "Go."

The young man, finally saved, leaped into the air and hurriedly dashed away.

The speed he was traveling at far surpassed his cultivation level. It was obvious that fear had activated his potential.

As the man walked away to leave, Yu Xun Zhen regained her ability to think and asked, "Master, are you perhaps planning to-"

"Like I said, encountering me is the same as finally having light in your life again." Ling Xian warmly smiled and softly made a statement that touched Yu Xun Zhen greatly.

"Therefore, I am going to handle this for you."

After this statement of his, Yu Xun Zhen's heart thumped and her eyes felt damp.

After the death of her Master, she had been locked up by her Faction and spent days and months in a cell without sunlight. It was only three days ago that she was able to escape by chance. Though she was able to get out of her cell, she had been under pursuit ever since.

Originally, she thought there was no way she would be able to survive. Before now, her crisis was temporarily resolved. How could she not be appreciative of Ling Xian?

Especially that statement of his, "I will handle it for you", made Yu Xun Zhen so thankful that tears were leaving her eyes. She felt like she was being wrapped by warmth. However, she knew very well that she had no reason to ask Ling Xian for anything and it would be wrong of her to drag him into this turmoil.

Because of all these reasons, Yu Xun Zhen slowly but steadily shook her head, "Master Ling, I understand you are being extremely kind to me. But no matter what, I cannot let you take responsibility for this."

"Ignoring all the future troubles this would cause you, the City of Qing Faction itself is going to be a huge problem for you."

Yu Xun Zhen sighed softly and consoled, "I understand that Master Ling is very powerful, but the City of Qing Faction remains a controlling force of Yunzhou that has two completion leveled powerhouses. Please do not endanger yourself for me."

Ling Xian softly grinned and was just about to speak when he was interrupted by the demon beside him.

"Hehe, young girl, you don't know who it is that's sitting beside you, don't you?"

The demon chuckled, "Though he is covered in blood and looks very fatigued, the City of Qing Faction is nothing to him."

Immediately, Yu Xun Zhen froze. Her beautiful eyes locked onto the handsome boy beside her as if searching for some kind of truth.

Against the beautiful woman's investigative stare, Ling Xian nodded with a smile. His confidence brightened the night sky.

Just like the demon had said, with his capabilities today, he was not necessarily undefeatable in the completion level, but he was not far away from it. Merely two completion leveled cultivators were nothing to him. He could erase their existence easily.

Or else he wouldn't have chosen to help Yu Xun Zhen. If he didn't have some kind of confidence, why would he act so aggressively?

Seeing Ling Xian nod once again surprised Yu Xun Zhen. Looking at the smiling young man, she wasn't sure what to say.

"Like I said, running into me will brighten up your life." Ling Xian gently smiled and patted the young girl's head very softly. "If I wasn't certain of my abilities, why would I speak with such arrogance?"

"But… but…"

Yu Xun Zhen was about to say more, but she was very quickly interrupted by Ling Xian, "There are no 'buts'."

"I know what you are worried about. But don't overthink it. The City of Qing Faction is nothing to me. Even if there will be troubles later, it will be better dealt with in the future. Since I made this decision, I will do everything I can to make sure everything ends up okay."

Ling Xian smiled. He knew very well what his decision meant to him.

Remember that Yu Xun Zhen was a human-shaped spiritual medicine. If the news gets passed around, all the cultivators in the world will go insane!

This meant there would be an endless amount of troubles waiting for him. If he offends the foreign kinds, he would be digging a deeper hole for him.

However, what Yu Xun Zhen said to him truly touched him and made him feel that it was worth it to handle this situation for her despite all the risks. After all, just now, the three Immortals inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals had ordered him to protect Yu Xun Zhen.

Though he was a little suspicious of all this, Ling Xian was not about to disobey orders from the three immortals. Therefore, he made the final decision to help out Yu Xun Zhen.

"Master, how will I ever repay the graciousness you've shown me?" Yu Xun Zhen was now crying and felt like she was being hugged by warmth.

Ling Xian waved around his hand with a smile. Just as he was about to speak, the injuries he sustained finally presented themselves all at once.

His injuries were already rather intense. But because he forcefully attacked moments ago, he had made matters even worse. It's only because he was extremely strong that he was able to repress his wounds and last until now.

But he had finally hit his limit.

Retch!

After puking out a mouthful of fresh blood, his internal injuries finally exploded. Ling Xian's face turned paler and paler, and his body began to shake.

If the demon didn't quickly help him out, he would've passed out.

At that instant, Yu Xun Zhen lost her composure and reacted like an ant on a hot pan. She wasn't sure what she should do.

"Idiot. You're a human shaped medicine. Why don't you just donate a drop of your blood?" The demon's husky voice suddenly rang with a little greed.

"Oh right, how come I forgot about that?" Yu Xun Zhen's eyes brightened and cheered in joy. For the first time ever, she was proud of her special physical property.

Therefore, she didn't hesitate before she manipulated her Qi and forced out a drop of blood. The drop she forced out wasn't a normal drop of blood, it was a drop of blood from the heart, known to have the strongest effects.

A red blood drop dripped down from her fingertip. The moment it oozed out, it exuded an intense aroma.

At the same time, an eerie and strange atmosphere expanded across the area, making everyone feel refreshed. It was as if once the drop of blood was consumed, one would be able to regenerate completely and rise above the cloud.

The blood of the immortal path!

Such rare spiritual medicine could both cure one's injuries and enlighten one's mind!
