Xu Wen looked surprised and asked, “You know her?”
Ye Wushuang nodded, quickly picked up Chu Qingcheng, and carried her to the inside of the passage, placing her beside the campfire.
Chu Qingcheng was dressed in a tattered blue dress, with her arms, chest, and legs barely covered. There were several bloodstains on these areas, now crusted over. However, there was a penetrating wound above her abdomen.
Ye Wushuang hastily took out several jade bottles; he had prepared a lot before coming out this time. He had spiritual liquids and medicinal powders ready.
“Sorry about this.”
With a **rip**, he tore open Chu Qingcheng’s clothes, carefully cleaned the wounds, and began to apply the medicine…
Xu Wen stood at the entrance of the passage, watching the forest under the night sky, always on guard.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, inside the passage, beside the campfire.
Chu Qingcheng’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her eyes suddenly opened. She sat up abruptly and shouted, “Get away!”
However, upon seeing her surroundings, she was momentarily stunned. Then, feeling the unbearable pain from her wounds, she let out a muffled groan.
“Awake?”
A gentle voice sounded.
“It’s you!” Chu Qingcheng looked at Ye Wushuang in front of her, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment.
“You’re here too!”
Chu Qingcheng was shocked to see Ye Wushuang.
“Um… put on the clothes first…”
While treating Chu Qingcheng’s injuries, Ye Wushuang had torn open her already tattered dress. After applying the medicine, he draped his outer garment over her. When Chu Qingcheng woke up and sat up abruptly, the outer garment slipped off, leaving only a few shreds of cloth covering her chest, exposing herself to Ye Wushuang.
Chu Qingcheng looked down, her pretty face turning red, and quickly pulled up the clothes.
Ye Wushuang handed her a bowl of meat porridge.
“What happened?”
Chu Qingcheng, with her head down, said, “I entered this place, just reaching the second tier of the Yuanfu realm. In this month, I obtained some opportunities in the Youlong Mountain and advanced to the third tier.”
“How did you get into this Li Yun tomb?”
“Li Yun tomb? What Li Yun tomb?” Chu Qingcheng was surprised. “I fell into a pit from a dense forest and somehow ended up here.”
It seemed that the Li Yun tomb had more than one entrance.
Of course, it was also possible that some spiritual beasts had destroyed some of the seals inside the tomb over time.
“These injuries don’t seem to be from spiritual beasts…”
Chu Qingcheng’s expression darkened as she said, “I was originally cooperating with several geniuses from small empires to adventure together. But later, we ran into Long Yan, the crown prince of the Tianlong Empire!”
“Long Yan? I know this guy.”
Xu Wen, who had somehow come to the campfire, chuckled and said, “He’s a top monster from the Tianlong Empire. Oh, by the way, Brother Ye, the Tianlong Empire is also one of the ten great empires.”
Xu Wen looked at Chu Qingcheng and continued, “Miss Chu, don’t worry. Brother Ye is very powerful. Even if he encounters a first-tier Tiangang realm monster, it’s just two words—kill them all!”
Chu Qingcheng looked at Ye Wushuang in astonishment.
She knew Ye Wushuang was very strong. In the Qingyun Empire, only Chu Tian from the Chu clan could compare with him.
But she didn’t expect that even in a place like the Hundred Kingdoms Martial Contest, where top geniuses gathered, Ye Wushuang was still so outstanding.
In this month, Chu Qingcheng had reached the third tier of the Yuanfu realm, and she had suffered a lot. Moreover, there were plenty of geniuses here!
In her original team, there was a sixteen-year-old genius at the second tier of the Yuanfu realm. Even at the third tier, she was no match for him.
This was a big blow to Chu Qingcheng. She truly realized the saying “there’s always someone better out there” only now.
But she didn’t expect that Ye Wushuang still maintained his dominance from the Qingyun Empire.
“Can you shut up?” Ye Wushuang was exasperated.
This guy had a serious case of being a chatterbox.
Chu Qingcheng continued, “Our team ran into Long Yan. They were too strong, with geniuses at the seventh, eighth, and ninth tiers of the Yuanfu realm.”
“The team leader, in order to save his own life, chose to hand me over to Long Yan and his group for their amusement!”
“I saw the situation was bad and fled first, but I fell here. I didn’t dare to stop until I passed out…”
After hearing this, Xu Wen couldn’t help but say, “Beauty is a curse. Miss Chu is just too pretty. I’m tempted too.”
Ye Wushuang gave Xu Wen an annoyed look.
When Chu Qingcheng was in the Qingyun Empire, the two had met through an array. Moreover, when several major families wanted to attack him, it was Chu Qingcheng who told him, allowing him to prepare in advance and counter-kill those people.
“This place is extremely dangerous. All the people who come here are top geniuses from various sects and countries. It’s not safe for you to stay here. Once you recover, leave by the way we came.”
“Okay… thank you…” Chu Qingcheng nodded.
She indeed knew this place was dangerous. On her way here, she had run into several groups of people, and the leaders of those groups were not much weaker than Long Yan.
“Rest first.”
“Okay.”
At that moment, outside the passage, there was a sound of wind.
More than ten figures suddenly entered the passage.
“Really someone here!”
A voice of delight rang out.
The leading three or four figures strode up to the campfire.
“Chu Qingcheng!”
The leader, upon seeing Chu Qingcheng, his eyes lit up and he chuckled, “Girl, you thought you could escape? I left Baiwei Powder on you!”
Chu Qingcheng’s face turned ugly upon seeing the leader: “Long Yuanqing!”
“He’s Long Yan’s younger brother.”
Long Yuanqing looked at Xu Wen and Ye Wushuang and couldn’t help but laugh, “Hero saving the beauty!”
“Hahaha…”
The people behind him all burst into laughter.
Clearly, they didn’t take Xu Wen and Ye Wushuang seriously.
“Did you guys hurt my friend?”
Ye Wushuang looked at the group of more than ten people and asked calmly.
“Ouch? Planning to get back at us?” Long Yuanqing wasn’t afraid at all and laughed, “Kid, it seems you know her. You’re out of luck, saving a beauty that the prince has his eyes on!”
Xu Wen, seeing this, had an interesting expression on his face. He scratched his bald head and chuckled.
There was a good show to watch.
“Baldy, what are you laughing at?”
Long Yuanqing glared at Xu Wen and cursed, “Do you think the prince is funny?”
This curse made Xu Wen’s face turn cold.
He hated it when people called him a “dead baldie”!
It was fine to mention his baldness, but not the word “baldie”!
Ignoring Xu Wen, Long Yuanqing directly looked at Ye Wushuang and taunted, “I don’t want to kill indiscriminately. Be sensible and get lost.”
“A beauty like this, killing her directly would be a waste. We guys need to have some fun.”
“Of course, if you two are willing, you can wait in line…”
Whoosh!!!
Before Long Yuanqing could finish his sentence, suddenly, Ye Wushuang charged forward.
He didn’t even take out his Tianya Sword.
Ye Wushuang threw a punch directly at Long Yuanqing’s face.
Sensing the killing intent, Long Yuanqing, being at the ninth tier of the Yuanfu realm, felt a chill in his heart and swung his fist to block.
Although he seemed like a playboy, he wasn’t a good-for-nothing. He had reached the ninth tier of the Yuanfu realm at a young age.
However, in the next moment, Long Yuanqing’s face turned pale abruptly.
