He Xi frowned slightly, reached out and wiped his face, removed his disguise, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Yan'an, look carefully at who I am!"
"Xi... Master Xi!"
With a clang, the sword fell to the ground. Zhou Yanan felt like a deflated ball. His knees went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, with a look of fear on his face, and he kept saying, "Master Xi, no! Divine Doctor Xi, you...you go away quickly, don't come here again!"
"Before leaving, the young master told you not to have anything to do with him again. He... he didn't want to implicate you. That agreement is off. Master Xi, you should leave now!"
But He Xi did not leave. Instead, he said coldly, "What a joke. You asked me to come and I will come? You asked me to leave and I will leave? I, Xi Yue, always keep my promises and I don't even bother to owe others favors."
"Tell me, what happened to Gu Liufeng?"
Zhou Yanan stared at He Xi in a daze. The young man in front of him had handsome eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and skin as white as snow. He looked like a young man in his twenties and was only in the foundation-building stage, but he always exuded a fierce aura.
It seems that no matter how big the problem is, it can be solved in his hands.
It's as if, no matter how difficult it is, no matter how dangerous the obstacles are, as long as he is there, we can get through it.
Zhou Yanan recalled the time in the secret realm of Fenglong Domain. Facing the powerful Ice Lotus Fairy, she, a Jindan stage warrior, could only wait for death in despair. However, she was able to fight to the death with the Ice Lotus Fairy and even injured her.
If... If it was this young man in front of me, maybe the young master could really be saved
Zhou Yanan felt an unspeakable hope in his heart. He knew that such a feeling was absurd, but he could not control his desire to rely on and pray to this young man who was only in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
"After coming out of the secret realm, our Shengde Hall had a hard time holding on. Not only was it the Murong family, but there was also a powerful force suppressing us from behind."
"Many people in Yanjing City are spreading news about the young master. There is a problem with our supply channel again, and the business of the pharmacy has plummeted."
"At that time, the young master seemed to have a premonition. He also said that if anything happened to him, he would let me send a message to you, Master Xi, asking you to never come here again. The last thing the young master wanted was to implicate you."
He Xi frowned and said, "As far as I know, the Murong family only has one high-level Jindan warrior, and he died in Murong Hai in the secret realm. The rest, even if there are some Jindan-stage warriors, can never be a match for Gu Liufeng."
"If Gu Liufeng wanted to escape, how could anyone take him away?"
Zhou Yanan wiped his face painfully and said, "At the beginning, the young master did beat those people who came. But later, one of them was the current acting head of the Murong family, Murong Feng. He took out a jade slip and showed it to the young master."
"After the young master read the jade slip, his expression changed. Then Murong Feng said that if the young master did not go back with him, he would make the contents of the jade slip public and make the young master live without dignity. Then, the young master gave up resistance and let those people take him away."
He Xi frowned and asked, "What's in the jade slip?"
“I don’t know either, but it must be something that the young master would never want others to know.” Zhou Yan’an thought of the young master’s desperate and completely giving up look when he left, and he couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart, and his voice trembled, “Master Xi, do you… do you have a way to save the young master?” (To be continued)
