Ye Wushuang was not merely using a drop of his essence blood as a catalyst!
He was essentially transfusing blood into Ye Yunzhe!
For every bit of pure vital energy that Ye Yunzhe absorbed, Ye Wushuang was integrating an equal amount of his own essence blood!
“Master Ye…” Wang Kun couldn’t help but ask, “Is it still not enough?”
Ye Wushuang had said he needed to use his own blood as a catalyst, but now, after the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Ye Wushuang showed no sign of stopping.
If this continued, Ye Wushuang himself would be drained dry!
Qing Shiyu also urgently said, “Ye Wushuang, don’t be reckless.”
By this time, Ye Wushuang’s face had turned ghastly pale, yet looking at the man before him, he resolutely declared, “I must keep him alive!”
Time continued to tick away, and the members of the Ye clan sat cross-legged by the blood pool, absorbing the pure vital energy within to consolidate their own foundations.
Meanwhile, Ye Wushuang kept channeling his essence blood to help Ye Yunzhe awaken.
“Cough… cough…”
Suddenly, a soft cough broke the silence.
Wang Kun, Qing Shihua, and Qing Shiyu all turned their gazes to Ye Yunzhe.
“He’s awake!” Qing Shiyu quickly said, “Ye Wushuang, you must stop now!”
At this moment, Ye Wushuang was still transfusing vital energy into Ye Yunzhe. Seeing Ye Yunzhe fully awake, his face bore a faint smile.
But to the onlookers, that smile appeared rather eerie.
Ye Wushuang’s entire body was terrifyingly pale,
as if he were a corpse drained of all its blood!
“Awake?” Ye Wushuang looked at Ye Yunzhe, who was still emaciated but now seemed a bit more human.
“I… where am I?” Ye Yunzhe managed to say, his eyes finally showing a glimmer of life.
Ye Wushuang stepped forward, his figure staggering, and with a thud, he collapsed to the ground.
Qing Shiyu could no longer contain herself and rushed over to help Ye Wushuang up.
Yet Ye Wushuang leaned closer to Ye Yunzhe and said with a smile, “You’re safe now. It’s good that you’re awake. I’m Ye Wushuang, a descendant of the Ye clan. I came to rescue you.”
“Descendant of the Ye clan?” Ye Yunzhe’s expression was puzzled.
“Don’t worry about that for now!” Ye Wushuang said with a smile. “It’s good that you’re fine. The vital energy in this blood pool can help you recover. Just absorb it and ensure your heart pulse remains unharmed. Safety is all that matters.”
Hearing this, Ye Yunzhe slowly nodded.
However, looking at the young man before him, he had countless doubts in his heart, but he also understood that now was not the time to ask questions.
Qing Shiyu, seeing Ye Wushuang’s terrifyingly pale face, couldn’t help but ask, “How are you holding up?”
“I can still manage,” Ye Wushuang replied. “Help me to the four puppets.”
“You should rest first…” Qing Shiyu suggested.
“There’s no need,” Ye Wushuang insisted.
With Qing Shiyu’s support, Ye Wushuang was led to the secret chamber where the four gold-like puppets stood on either side, exuding a powerful aura.
As Ye Wushuang touched the four puppets, he was inwardly astonished.
Qing Shiyu then said, “You’re not planning to control these four puppets, are you?”
“I’ll give it a try,” Ye Wushuang replied.
“You’re out of your mind,” Qing Shiyu quickly said. “Don’t risk it. You’re severely depleted of essence blood. This could jeopardize your very foundation.”
At this moment, Ye Wushuang looked up at the ancient mirror suspended in the fifth floor.
Inside the mirror, the scene showed Elder Licun of the Tianji Mansion, along with Tianyuyun and Tianyuyu, already engaged in battle with the elders of Qingyun Academy led by Tang Chuyi and Shen Qian.
“The Heavenly Number Secret Palace has been breached. Wang Jianmu can’t possibly be unaware. If he returns, Tang Chuyi and Shen Qian alone won’t be able to stop him,” Ye Wushuang said.
“Moreover…” Ye Wushuang continued, looking at the elders in the mirror, “The people of Tianji Mansion will surely want to kill me, and the elders of the various great clans will be eager to see me dead as well.”
Qing Shiyu was taken aback.
Ye Wushuang was right.
With Ye Yunzhe discovered by Ye Wushuang, even if Wang Jianmu wasn’t in the underground palace, he would surely sense something and rush back.
By then, Tang Chuyi and the others would likely be unable to stop the Tianji Mansion elder.
Moreover, among the eight Inner Court elders who had arrived with Tang Chuyi and Shen Qian were Chu Mingjie, Qin Lizhe, Liu Jing, Shang Wanjun, and Xiao Shangyu, all from the five great clans. They would be more than happy to see Ye Wushuang meet a miserable end!
The situation was indeed dire!
