The guard captain’s gaze instinctively shifted to the young man’s hand. His slender fingers, delicate as jade, were clenched into a tight fist. Blood steadily dripped through the gaps between his fingers, pooling into a growing stain on the ground.

Yet, the young man seemed oblivious to it, as if the blood pouring from his hand had nothing to do with him.

The guard captain swallowed hard, and a chill ran down his spine. Having faced life-and-death situations, he trusted his instincts without question. At that moment, he was certain of the danger. Without hesitation, he ordered the city guards to leave, as if the report had never reached him.

The servant from the Chen Clinic opened his mouth, ready to shout as the city guards left. But when his gaze fell on the red-clothed youth standing like a statue, fear gripped him. His legs shook uncontrollably, and he barely kept himself on his feet.

Thinking of the horrific sight of another guard being cut into pieces, he fled back to the clinic with a pale face.

Slowly, all the people on this street dispersed.

Anyone who laid eyes on Xi Weizhi would feel a chilling fear creep up their spine, causing them to hurriedly retreat in terror.

The young man in red, with his slender frame and cold expression, had a pair of alluring eyes that seemed to hold the depth of an endless, frozen abyss. He stood silently, his gaze fixed on the direction where the figure had vanished within Sumeru Clinic.

The injuries of Jin Zeyu and the others appeared gruesome, but in reality, they were nothing more than superficial wounds.

Xi Yue possessed pure wood spiritual power. With a gentle touch, she swiftly channeled her energy through their wounds, healing them almost entirely in no time.

Meanwhile, Fang Yuan and Zhang Yi were severely injured. They had gone into spasms and shock from losing too much blood.

Xi Yue had them each take a blood healing pill. Before long, color returned to their faces, and their breathing grew steadier.

Unfortunately, Qian Dazhuang’s internal organs had suffered severe damage.

Xi Yue took out her silver needles. As she channeled her spiritual power, she carefully treated the damage to his internal organs. After an hour, she was finally able to stabilize Qian Dazhuang’s condition, ensuring that his life was saved and his body would suffer no lasting effects.

Xi Yue put away the silver needles. She sat down on a chair, panting.

Treating so many people in succession had taken a heavy toll on both her mind and spiritual power. When she first saw that Jin Zeyu and the others were injured, her heart had been in a state of constant worry and fear. Only now, finally, could she allow herself to breathe a sigh of relief.

Mm… Xi Yue… Xi Yue!” Jin Zeyu, still unconscious, furrowed his brow in pain as he muttered in a delirious state. “Is it because I’m not strong enough? I swore allegiance to you, yet I can’t do anything for you… Xi Yue!”

“Wake up, Jin Zeyu!” Xi Yue channeled her spiritual power into the acupuncture point in his chest.

Jin Zeyu’s tightly shut eyes fluttered, gradually opening to reveal his consciousness returning.

As Xi Yue’s face appeared before him, Jin Zeyu, usually so composed, felt his eyes instantly fill with tears. His voice came out hoarse and shaky as he whispered, “Am I dreaming? Xi Yue… is it really you, or am I still trapped in a dream?”

Xi Yue was amused as she shook her head. She reached out and gently tapped his forehead, channeling a bit of ice spiritual power to clear his mind. “Stop talking nonsense,” she said with a smile. “Do you still think you’re still dreaming?”

Jin Zeyu blinked her eyes rapidly, then suddenly jolted up from the bed, his eyes wide as he stared intently at the person before him.

Even though she dressed as a young man and was no longer as beautiful as before, the familiar brows and expression deeply etched in his memory answered his doubts.

It’s unmistakable. It’s Xi Yue! It’s really Xi Yue!

“Xi Yue!” Jin Zeyu screamed, his voice becoming hoarse and broken due to excitement, “Is it really you, Xi Yue?”

Xi Yue chuckled, “Who else could it be if it wasn’t me?”
