Xu Wen looked surprised and asked, “Do you know her?”

Ye Wushuang nodded and quickly picked up Chu Qingcheng, carrying her to the inside of the passage and placing her beside the bonfire.

Chu Qingcheng was dressed in a tattered green dress, with her arms, chest, and legs barely covered. There were several bloodstains on these parts of her body, which had already scabbed over. However, there was a penetrating wound above her abdomen.

Ye Wushuang quickly took out several jade bottles; he had made many preparations before coming out this time. He had prepared spiritual liquid and medicinal powder.

“Sorry about this,” he said as he 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 brew a cup of tea, Chu Qingcheng’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her eyes suddenly opened. She sat up abruptly and shouted, “Get away!”

However, upon seeing the surroundings, she was taken aback and then felt an unbearable pain from her wounds, causing her to groan.

“Awake?” a gentle voice asked.

“It’s you!” Chu Qingcheng looked at Ye Wushuang in disbelief.

“You’re here too!” Chu Qingcheng’s beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment.

“Um… put on the clothes first…” Ye Wushuang had torn open Chu Qingcheng’s already tattered dress while treating her wounds, so after applying the medicine, he draped his outer garment over her.

Now that Chu Qingcheng had woken up and sat up abruptly, the outer garment slipped off, leaving only a few shreds of cloth covering her chest, exposing her to Ye Wushuang.

Chu Qingcheng looked down, her face turning red, and quickly pulled the clothes back on.

Ye Wushuang handed her a bowl of meat porridge.

“What happened?” Chu Qingcheng asked, lowering her head.

“I entered this place, and I was just at the second level of the Yuanfu Realm. Over the past month, I obtained some opportunities in the Youlong Mountain and reached the third level,” Chu Qingcheng explained.

“But how did you get into this Li Yun’s ancient tomb?”

“Li Yun’s ancient tomb? What Li Yun’s ancient tomb?” Chu Qingcheng was surprised. “I fell into a pit from a dense forest and somehow ended up here.”

It seemed that there was more than one entrance to the Li Yun’s ancient tomb. Of course, it was also possible that some spiritual beasts had destroyed some of the seals inside the tomb over time.

“These wounds don’t seem to be from spiritual beasts…” Chu Qingcheng’s expression darkened. “Originally, I was cooperating with several geniuses from small empires to adventure together, but later, we encountered the Dragon Flame Prince from the Tianlong Empire!”

“Dragon Flame? I know this guy,” Xu Wen, who had somehow come to the bonfire, chuckled and said, “He is one of the top monsters 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 Tian Gang Realm monster, there are only two words—kill indiscriminately!”

Chu Qingcheng looked at Ye Wushuang in astonishment. She knew Ye Wushuang was very powerful. In the Qingyun Empire, only Chu Tian Shen from the Chu clan could compare with him.

But she didn’t expect that Ye Wushuang would still be so outstanding in a place like the Hundred Nations Martial Contest, where geniuses gathered.

Over the past month, Chu Qingcheng had reached the third level of the Yuanfu Realm, and she had suffered a lot. Moreover, there were no shortage of geniuses here.

In her original team, there was a sixteen-year-old genius at the second level of the Yuanfu Realm. Even though Chu Qingcheng had reached the third level, she was still no match for him.

This was a great blow to Chu Qingcheng. She truly realized the saying “there are always people better than you, and the sky is always higher than you.”

But she didn’t expect that Ye Wushuang would still maintain 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 encountered Dragon Flame. They were too strong. They had geniuses at the seventh, eighth, and ninth levels of the Yuanfu Realm.”

“The team leader chose to hand me over to Dragon Flame and his group for their amusement in order to save his own life!”

“I saw the situation was not good and escaped first, but I fell here. I didn’t dare to stop until I fainted…”

After hearing this, Xu Wen couldn’t help but say, “Beauty is a curse. Miss Chu is so beautiful that even I am tempted.”

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 the several major families wanted to attack Ye Wushuang, it was Chu Qingcheng who told him, allowing him to prepare in advance and counterattack those people.

“This place is extremely dangerous. Those who come here are all geniuses from various sects and countries. It’s not safe for you to stay here. Once you recover, leave by the way we came,” Ye Wushuang said.

“Okay… thank you…” Chu Qingcheng nodded.

She indeed knew this place was dangerous. Along the way, she had encountered several groups of people, and the leaders of those groups were not much weaker than Dragon Flame.

“Rest first,” Ye Wushuang said.

“Okay,” Chu Qingcheng replied.

At that moment, there was a sound of wind from outside the passage.

Suddenly, more than ten figures entered the passage.

“Really someone here!”

A voice of delight rang out.

The leading three or four figures strode up to the bonfire.

“Chu Qingcheng!”

The leader, upon seeing Chu Qingcheng, his eyes lit up and he chuckled, “Girl, do you think you can run away? I left Baiwei Powder on you!”

Chu Qingcheng’s face turned ugly upon seeing the leader: “Long Yuanqing!”

“He is Dragon Flame’s brother,” Long Yuanqing looked at Xu Wen and Ye Wushuang and couldn’t help but laugh, “Hero saving beauty!”

“Hahaha…”

The people behind him all burst into laughter.

Clearly, they didn’t take Xu Wen and Ye Wushuang seriously.

“Did you hurt my friend?”

Ye Wushuang looked at the group of more than ten people and asked calmly.

“Ouch? Are you planning to take revenge on us?” Long Yuanqing was not afraid at all and chuckled, “Kid, it seems you know her. You’re out of luck, saving a beauty that this prince has set 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.

“Dead baldy, what are you laughing at?”

Long Yuanqing glared at Xu Wen and cursed, “Do you think this prince is funny?”

This curse made Xu Wen’s face turn cold.

He hated it the most when people called him a “dead baldy”!

It was fine to call him bald, but not “baldy”!

Long Yuanqing ignored Xu Wen and directly looked at Ye Wushuang, taunting, “I don’t want to kill indiscriminately. Be sensible and get out of here quickly.”

“A beauty like this, killing her directly is indeed a waste. We brothers 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, Ye Wushuang suddenly attacked.

He didn’t even take out the Tianya Sword.

Ye Wushuang threw a punch directly at Long Yuanqing’s face.

Sensing the killing intent, Long Yuanqing, being at the ninth level of the Yuanfu Realm, also felt a chill in his heart and swung his fist to block.

He might look like a playboy, but he was not a good-for-nothing. He had reached the ninth level of the Yuanfu Realm at a young age.

However, the next moment, Long Yuanqing’s face changed dramatically.
