“Yue Zhao, wake up!”
At this critical moment, all Gu Qingqing could think of was to use her own spirit of speech technique.
As the mysterious voice fell, Yue Zhao’s movements were immediately frozen on the spot. Gu Qingqing hurriedly retreated more than ten steps away from Yue Zhao.
Because of Gu Qingqing’s spirit of speech, the blood in Yue Zhao’s eyes slightly retreated. His expression was somewhat hesitant. The runes on his body would disappear for a while before appearing again, causing Gu Qingqing to be extremely nervous.
Fortunately, every time the runes appeared, the color would fade. Otherwise, Gu Qingqing felt that she would really have to die here today.
She felt it for a while. She realized that there was still some spiritual energy left in her body. She looked at Yue Zhao and was a little hesitant.
A moment later, Gu Qingqing gritted her teeth and spoke again.
“Second senior brother, wake up!”
A mysterious voice floated out of Gu Qingqing’s mouth once again. Only she herself could see the white light falling on Yue Zhao’s body. She did not care about the meridians in her body that were slightly painful due to her spiritual energy being sucked out. She nervously watched Yue Zhao’s expression.
…
It was unknown when Yue Zhao had gotten into the habit of drinking by the cliff of the second peak. When he had nothing to do, he would come to the edge of the cliff and drink a pot of wine. After that, he would practice his zither and blow the wind at the edge of the cliff. The things that usually bothered him seemed to disappear, making him feel very comfortable.
It was the same today. He brought a pot of peach blossom drunkenness that he liked to drink and sat by the edge of the cliff. After drinking, he took out his zither and began to play.
Perhaps it was because Gu Qingqing had chosen that zither today, but when he was playing the zither, he actually remembered the memories that had been sealed away by him. His emotions grew stronger and stronger, and it just so happened to trigger the poison that was suppressed in his body. In the end, he actually had the feeling of going crazy.
Just as his mind began to become muddled, he felt something approaching him. However, his vision was blood-red. He could not see clearly what it was and could only subconsciously attack, trying to protect himself.
In his daze, he seemed to see Gu Qingqing’s face. However, in the next moment, his vision was replaced by blood red.
Just as the violent elements in his body could not suppress themselves and wanted to kill the person in front of him, a mysterious voice suddenly sounded in his ear. However, he could not hear it clearly and subconsciously stopped, wanting to hear what it was… However, his current state was really not good. He actually could not control his body.
Just as he was about to sink into it again, the mysterious voice from before once again appeared in his ear. This time, he heard it clearly.
“Second senior brother, wake up!”
It was Gu Qingqing’s voice. It was the last disciple that his master, Holy Lord Spirit Fox, had recently accepted. He remembered that the other party’s talent seemed to be the spirit of words technique. Previously, he had only heard that the spirit of words technique was more powerful, but now he had personally experienced it.
The instant he heard the voice, the thoughts that he had been unable to control suddenly cleared up. The blood in front of his eyes faded, and he saw Gu Qingqing looking at him worriedly with a pale face. In that instant, it was as if a beam of light had shone into his heart, he instantly remembered this face.
He wanted her to not worry. He was already fine, but his vision turned black and he fainted.
…
When she saw the blood in Yue Zhao’s eyes disappear, Gu Qingqing was still relatively happy. She saw Yue Zhao’s mouth move and was about to step forward to hear clearly when Yue Zhao’s body suddenly fell forward. She subconsciously rushed forward to support him, but she forgot about her small and weak body. She was directly hit by Yue Zhao and also fainted.
When Rong Ye arrived, he saw Yue Zhao pressing onto Gu Qingqing’s body as both of them fainted.
He was shocked and quickly ran over.
He first removed Yue Zhao from Gu Qingqing’s body and checked her condition. He found that the spiritual power in her body was very active and somewhat chaotic. He quickly withdrew his spiritual power and looked at Yue Zhao with a frown, then he checked Gu Qingqing’s condition again.
Gu Qingqing’s condition was not much better than Yue Zhao’s. The spiritual power in her body had been drained, and even her meridians were slightly damaged.
He looked around and found that there were no signs of a fight. He hid the doubts in his heart. He summoned a puppet and let the other party carry Yue Zhao while he carried Gu Qingqing to Mu Chen’s fourth peak.
It was already midnight. However, Mu Chen had recently obtained a new prescription and was researching a new medicine. He did not rest. When Rong Ye brought Gu Qingqing and Yue Zhao over, he had just finished refining a batch of pills and was ready to rest for a while.
“What happened to Qingqing and Second Senior Brother? Did someone sneak into Hidden Spirit Mountain?” Even a calm Mu Chen could not help but ask when he saw Yue Zhao and Gu Qingqing.
“How would I know?” After placing Gu Qingqing on the bed, Rong Ye finally could not help but complain, “I was cultivating when I felt that Qingqing crushed the talisman I gave her. When I sensed that she was at the second peak, I did not dare to delay and went over. Who knew that after I went over, I saw Second Brother gently pressing her under his body and both of them fainted.”
Mu Chen raised his eyebrows and walked to Yue Zhao’s side to treat her. He was shocked when he felt the violent spiritual power in Yue Zhao’s body. “Did Second Brother almost go mad? Why is his spiritual power so violent?”
“Go mad?” Rong Ye was shocked. “Didn’t Second Brother stay at the second peak? How did he go mad? Besides, with Second Brother’s character, he can’t be the one who went mad.”
Thinking of Yue Zhao’s tricks, Rong Ye shivered. He was very impressed and scared of his eldest brother, but he was absolutely scared of second brother. He was traumatized!
Mu Chen nodded, “Let’s wait until Second Brother wakes up to ask.”
After feeding Yue Zhao a mild spiritual power pill, he turned to look at Gu Qingqing.
“Qingqing is fine, but her meridians are slightly damaged due to the exhaustion of her spiritual power. She will be fine after a day of rest.” As he spoke, Mu Chen Fed Gu Qingqing a pill to warm her meridians.
Hearing this, Rong Ye heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’ll leave the two of them with you for now. I’ll go and rest for a while.” Looking at the moon outside, Rong Ye sighed and helped Gu Qingqing tuck in the blanket. After instructing Mu Chen, he left.
Mu Chen also took a look at Gu Qingqing and Yue Zhao before turning around and leaving the room.
…
Before dawn, Yue Zhao woke up first.
When he saw the unfamiliar ceiling above his head, he was stunned for a moment. Very quickly, everything from yesterday surfaced in his mind. Recalling Gu Qingqing’s pale face at that time, he hurriedly sat up.
When he saw her lying on the bed beside him, still asleep, he paused again and his gaze fell on her face.
Before today, Yue Zhao was still very cold towards Gu Qingqing. He only taught her according to Wen Guiyun’s instructions. Even if Gu Qingqing chose the zither that he had used when he first started, he did not pay too much attention to it. However, he did not expect that… when he almost went mad, it was Gu Qingqing, a five-year-old girl, who took the risk to wake him up!
Although he was not conscious, his memory was still there. He knew that he wanted to kill Gu Qingqing at that time. If Gu Qingqing did not have a defensive spiritual artifact on her and wasn’t smart, she would definitely be hurt by him!
At this moment, Yue Zhao accepted this junior sister from the bottom of his heart. In his heart, Gu Qingqing’s position was much more important than Rong Ye and the rest!
After making up his mind to treat Gu Qingqing well in the future, Yue Zhao closed her eyes and began to recuperate. The medicine that Mu Chen fed him could only moderate his spiritual power, but in order to completely stabilize this spiritual power, he had to do it himself.
…
Gu Qingqing woke up after the sun came out. When she woke up, her head was still a little muddled. When she looked up, she saw Yue Zhao looking at her with concern. She was stunned for a moment, and her memories came back to her. When she remembered what happened to Yue Zhao last night, she quickly looked at Yue Zhao nervously.
