Ye Zhi already got up from the chair. He stared warily at Qijue’s sect master, then looked at neared-death Yan Wan. His brows frowned slightly, but other than that, nothing much was shown on his face.
Seeing this, Qijue’s sect master revealed a cold sneer, “Ye Zhi, you are still so emotionless. Earlier, I heard Yan Wan say you have changed. I thought you would at least show some anger after seeing her being reduced to this.”
Although his tone was mocking, it couldn’t hide the satisfaction he had for Ye Zhi. Qijue’s sect master had to admit: that Ye Zhi was the most outstanding student among members of Qijue. That was why he accepted him as a direct disciple. And yet, the man he had appointed, the one he was most satisfied with, the ruthless man he thought would never be swayed by emotions. But, in the end, he was the same as everyone else, falling into the trap called emotions.
If possible, he really wanted Ye Zhi to obediently stay by him, obediently follow his order, only showed his claws to other people, and let everyone know he would only obey him and him alone.
Unfortunately, it seemed the other man knew how to make Ye Zhi bow and submit better than him. As for what kind of trick he used, he hadn’t figured out yet.
Ye Zhi gritted his teeth, maintaining vigilance against sect master. He secretly glanced to the side. Luckily Li Suqing was in the other room at this time. As long as he prevented sect master from stepping into that room, he could protect Li Suqing.
However, Ye Zhi’s glance was caught by Qijue’s sect master. He followed his gaze and sneered quietly.
Of course, he knew who the person in the other room was. He couldn’t even wait to see what kind of person could seduce and beguile a disciple of Qijue sect to such a state.
While the two were still in the middle of a silent confrontation, the other room door suddenly opened.
The clueless Li Suqing came out from inside, bringing a few coughs along, “What’s wrong? I heard something very loud earlier.”
He heard noises from within the room and thought Ye Zhi and Yan Wan might have had a dispute and fought, so he wanted to have a look. However, a black shadow suddenly blocked his sight before he could raise his eyes to look at what was happening.
Ye Zhi clenched his teeth, prepared for the incoming attack.
“Ye er?” Li Suqing was startled. He looked toward the man who swung the long sword at him, only to see that person’s face glowing with a sinister smile and a murderous look in his eyes.

“Ye er?” Qijue’s sect master raised his brow, “How intimate.” So he spoke as he unleashed his internal force to suppress the defensive Ye Zhi until he couldn’t move.

“Ye Zhi, do you think you can stop me with just you alone?” The ruthless sect master broke the balance in a blink of an eye and launched another attack on Ye Zhi.
Ye Zhi was pushed back and suppressed by sect master time after time. Then, in a moment of carelessness, the sect master saw through his flaw and violently hit his chest with a kick filled with internal force.
Ye Zhi couldn’t withstand this attack. His body flew 10 meters away and broke through the wooden door to the next room.
The pain in his chest told Ye Zhi several ribs were definitely broken. However, he hadn’t had time to be concerned about his injuries when a soft cough next to his ears captured his attention.
“Ye er, are you alright?” Even though Li Suqing’s face showed pain, he didn’t forget to ask about Ye Zhi.
At this moment, Li Suqing’s body was covered in blood. Not Ye Zhi’s blood, but his own. Li Suqing was only a normal person with no martial art. Even Ye Zhi couldn’t stand one blow from sect master, then how could he!
Because Li Suqing wanted to protect Ye Zhi, he kept hugging him tightly in his arms. Most of the impact and damage caused by the internal force was absorbed by Li Suqing’s body. An already weak body, added a blow on top of it, Li Suqing threw up a mouthful of blood, staining his clothes red.
Which was what Ye Zhi seeing right now.
“Suqing!” Ye Zhi screamed in horror. In return, Li Suqing only smiled, “Seriously, I didn’t want to hear you call my name for the first time in this situation.” Being together for so long, Ye Zhi had never called his name directly. Yet when he was finally able to hear it, it was in this kind of situation. Li Suqing didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry.
“Don’t worry. I’m okay.” Li Suqing probably didn’t know how horrible he looked when speaking those words.
Ye Zhi pursed his lips with an enduring look. Li Suqing immediately understood how pathetic his current appearance was from that expression. However, he could only smile and comforted Ye Zhi, “I’m a doctor. I should know my body better than you, don’t you think? Or do you not believe what I say?”
“It’s not….” Ye Zhi shook his head.
“Good Ye er.” Li Suqing gently and tenderly caressed Ye Zhi’s cheek.
Suddenly, he shouted in alarm: “Ye er, be careful!”
This reminder came just at the right time. Truthfully, Ye Zhi could completely avoid the sword coming from behind, but if he did, what would happen to Li Suqing?
Ye Zhi knew. Li Suqing was the same as him. Even if he didn’t have martial art, he would still protect him with his all. At this moment, he couldn’t help but think about what Yan Wan said.
He really…had caused harm to Li Suqing.
Right from the start, he shouldn’t have coveted the warmth in Li Suqing’s arm, much less fallen for his gentle smile. Even so, he did not regret staying by his side, showing their affection for each other…this should be what people call selfishness.
If Li Suqing had to die in exchange for him to live, he would never allow it. Even if sect master’s sword pierced through him, he would not dodge. He would never let the sect master hurt Li Suqing anymore.
A long sigh came out of Li Suqing’s mouth, Ye Zhi didn’t know why.
Then, he saw Li Suqing stretch out his hand and use those slender fingers to catch the master’s long sword. Qijue’s sect master discovered, even when he exhausted his internal strength, the blade stuck between those fingers’ gaps wouldn’t budge.
He only saw Li Suqing folding it gently, and the long sword that could cut through iron like mud was broken into countless pieces!
“You are the master of Qijue’s sect?” Li Suqing raised his eyes at the arrogant sect master. His appearance was pathetic, but it still carried that inherent calmness and gentleness.
“If you really are the master of Qijue’s sect, then who am I?” Li Suqing smiled helplessly.
“You, you are….” Qijue’s sect master panicked and involuntarily took a few steps back.
He knew better than anyone. Although people in Jianghu and Qijue’s sect recognized him as the sect master of Qijue, as one of the puppets of Qijue’s sect, he knew there was a true master above him.
But even if that was the case, no one in Jianghu knew who the true Qijue sect master was. Even he didn’t know what the one standing above him and controlling everything looked like.
Besides, it had been many years since he felt the existence of this true master. No one wanted to be a puppet, not to mention he was only a pawn to cover the eyes of people in Jianghu.
“During my 10 years of absence, what kind of small tricks you’ve done, do you think I don’t know?” Li Suqing smiled gently, but it did not contain any kindness.
“However, since you helped me meet such a good seed, I will allow you to die more comfortably.”
As soon as Li Suqing finished speaking, Qijue’s sect master felt a chill in his throat.
In Qijue sect, no one could compare to him. Even the famous martial masters in Jianghu could not kill in one strike. Otherwise, sitting in this position, he would have died many times over.
However, this Li Suqing, who looked weak and sickly and had no internal strength, could easily throw a dark weapon and stab his throat in an instant.
“…” Witnessing the sect master he had previously worshiped fall in front of him, Ye Zhi couldn’t help raising his head to look at the person with their back to him, Li Suqing.
Even if he had dreamt about it a thousand times, he would have never imagined this. A Li Suqing without any internal strength, a Li Suqing who was weaker than a chicken, would be the true master of Qijue sect.
Li Suqing turned around, still wearing that gentle smile, but his fingertips were red with fresh blood, dripping on the ground.
“It’s rare to see you like that, Ye er,” Li Suqing lifted Ye Zhi’s face with his hand, forcing Ye Zhi to look straight at him, “But, it’s also very interesting.”
