"Of all people to resemble, why must it be her? Even if I rescue you, you won’t survive."

The Sword Demon murmured coldly, then leaped down into the deep pit and picked up the nearly lifeless Ye Wuping.

He could feel the blood flowing from Ye Wuping’s body, soaking into his clothes, which made him feel as if he had spilt meat soup on himself at dinner.

If someone truly spilled meat soup on his clothes during a meal, letting it intimately contact his skin, clothes, and the soup, he would surely draw his sword without hesitation and slaughter that person, regardless of intent.

He simply couldn’t understand why, despite detesting this feeling, he couldn’t muster the thought of abandoning Ye Wuping.

At this moment, Ye Wuping seemed to sense his body’s abnormality, slowly opened his blood-drenched, vacant eyes, and in a voice as light as a breath, muttered, "Am I going to die?"

"Soon, if you like, I’ll walk slower, so you can peacefully die on the way!" The Sword Demon coldly responded, uncaring if Ye Wuping heard.

Feeling Ye Wuping’s body start to tremble painfully, and his faint, ever-fading breaths, the Sword Demon quickened his pace.

After placing Ye Wuping on his own bed, the Sword Demon sighed in relief and began sealing Ye Wuping’s wounds with Vein Qi, forcibly locking in the last breath.

Then, he pushed the door open, intending to leave!

But Wen Yan arrived earlier.

"Are you going to see the Sect Leader?" Wen Yan asked.

The Sword Demon was stunned for a few moments because while sealing Ye Wuping’s wounds with Vein Qi, the image of the Sect Leader had flashed through his mind. The Sect Leader can even save Micro-Life Star Rain, surely saving Ye Wuping is no problem!

"Sect Leader..."

The Sword Demon began to explain but was interrupted by Wen Yan.

Wen Yan interjected, "No need to say much, this time the Sect Leader can make an exception for you, let Ye Wuping go... Anyway, if you like her, pursue boldly. I wish you happiness!"

"Thank you, Sect Leader." The Sword Demon responded, then suddenly realized something, "Sect Leader, you’ve misunderstood, I don’t like her!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Then let her live or die on her own."

"I don’t want her to die now, because Ye Wuping’s dying state reminds me of when I first met her, even her words were the same."

The Sword Demon said truthfully.

"Touched by the scene, I understand... If you truly want to save her, you can find Elder Zi Ran. Elder Zi Ran possesses countless Celestial Materials from the Red Leaf Sect, enough to sustain her!"

Wen Yan pointed the Sword Demon in a bright direction, knowing it’s impossible for her to act.

He wasn’t that leisurely!

Activating Myriad Swords Pool and then spending time saving Ye Wuping himself, unless the Sword Demon truly likes Ye Wuping, only then will an exception be made. Otherwise, Wen Yan wouldn’t waste precious time on outsiders, especially enemies.

The Sword Demon, with a gentle demeanor, rejoiced, then bid farewell to Wen Yan and headed to Elder Zi Ran’s residence, calling out Elder Zi Ran, who was studying Ye Wuping’s umbrella. After stating his purpose, Zi Ran smiled, immediately returned to his room, and began searching through the pile of Celestial Materials.

Finally, amongst the heaps of Celestial Materials, he found a flower, a flower seemingly soaked in blood for a millennium.

"Lifeless Flower, as long as you’re not a Celestial Unrestricted expert, and you have a breath remaining, it can pull you back from Hell’s path." Zi Ran handed the jade box containing the Lifeless Flower to the Sword Demon, then added, "Sword Demon Elder, a hero rescuing a beauty, splendid!"

"No..."

The Sword Demon couldn’t defend himself.

Zi Ran maintained his smile, repeating twice, ’I understand,’ then without further ado with the Sword Demon, bid farewell and returned to his research on Ye Wuping’s umbrella.

Holding the Lifeless Flower, the Sword Demon suddenly hesitated to save Ye Wuping.

Ye Wuping?

Even if presented to him, he wouldn’t accept!

He merely didn’t want Ye Wuping to die, wasn’t a hero saving a beauty!

He, the Sword Demon, would never be a hero saving a beauty!

Returning to his residence, the Sword Demon suspended the Lifeless Flower in the air with Vein Qi, gently channeling its medicinal power into Ye Wuping’s body.

Ye Wuping’s body certainly couldn’t ingest the Lifeless Flower directly, so the essence had to be absorbed slowly.

At this moment, Wen Yan stood outside the dormitory area, pensively observing the scene of the Sword Demon trying to rescue Ye Wuping, "Sword Demon, love will slow your blade, hope you don’t fall again. Ye Wuping is an enemy of the Immortal Sect!"

If the Sword Demon develops feelings for Ye Wuping, it is highly likely to repeat past mistakes.

Of course, Wen Yan was undoubtedly supportive of the Sword Demon.

He feared Ye Wuping was unwilling to let go of hatred, insisting on a death struggle with the Immortal Sect, standing opposite the Sword Demon.

As a gentle breeze brushed across his face, Wen Yan collected his thoughts, left the dormitory area, headed back to his cultivation.

Killing Qian Jun and others recently showed Wen Yan that if he doesn’t advance into Earth Unrestricted, it’s unwise. Killing Qian Jun signified the start of war with You Country. Now, the Immortal Sect’s influence stretches wide, without an absolutely strong presence to guard the sect, it’s perilous.

Only by advancing into Earth Unrestricted, then searching for a Celestial Unrestricted undead creature in Undead Hell, can the current issue be resolved.

After Wen Yan’s departure, the Sword Demon spent three days continuously guiding the Lifeless Flower’s energy into Ye Wuping, until she could finally breathe steadily, before he stopped and prepared to place the final Lifeless Flower petal into Ye Wuping’s mouth.

Just as he was about to do so, Ye Wuping unexpectedly moaned softly, slowly opened her eyes. Upon seeing the light again and realizing she wasn’t dead, Ye Wuping rejoiced, wanting to get up but found herself immobile.

Though alive, she was like a living corpse!

Except for her eyes, lips, and brain able to move, nothing else was possible.

At this time, a figure blocked the light before her eyes, Ye Wuping instinctively squinted, looking toward the person’s face.

However, everything in sight was blurry!

Her eyes indeed opened, but she couldn’t see clearly.

"Who are you?"

Ye Wuping weakly asked.

The Sword Demon coldly looked at Ye Wuping, then said sternly, "If you don’t want to die, open your mouth yourself, anymore nonsense and I’ll send you away with one slash!"

At this moment, two thoughts flashed through Ye Wuping’s mind.

Did he save me?

This voice sounds wonderful!

As she mused, Ye Wuping slowly controlled her lips to open her mouth, ingesting the Lifeless Flower petal the Sword Demon placed within.

After swallowing the petal, Ye Wuping immediately felt a surge of potent medicinal force flowing through her body.

"Thank you—"

Ye Wuping’s pale lips parted slightly, her gaze remained on the blurry figure before her, a sense of security spontaneously arose.

With him there, her heart was at peace!
