Yun Xuan laughed helplessly, "However, this time it was all thanks to you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have noticed it and would have rushed here in time."

"Congratulations! Although this Purple Lightning Marten is in danger, you have finally entered the state of mind!"

Bai Xi turned his head and silently said in his heart, "What are you so happy for? One day Grandpa Marten will surpass you... "Although the download difference is too big!"

Zi Lingxue was also genuinely happy for Bai Xi. "That's right, Bai Xi, congratulations!"

Bai Xi had broken through his mental state and reached the low level of the Concept of Transformation. The amount of spirit energy he had after that was equivalent to the strength of a Spirit Lord.

"Lingxue, do you trust me?" Yun Xuan suddenly frowned as he looked at Zi Lingxue.

Yun Xuan looked at Zi Lingxue and laughed, that smile was as warm as sunlight illuminating Zi Lingxue's heart. She was once a bloodthirsty agent, and did not have the slightest bit of feelings for him.

When he thought of how Yun Xuan used five hundred thousand silver horns to buy his own medicine, just so that those who had hurt him wouldn't be healed by Zi Yetan, he thought of how he had killed his way through the forest of the Demon Area with reddened eyes. He remembered how she had been hunted down by the Ninth Protector to wait for her death.

It seemed to be Yun Xuan's fault every time.

Zi Lingxue stubbornly lowered her gaze, and without daring to look at Yun Xuan's pitch-black eyes, she nodded her head.

Yun Xuan's face became serious, "This is a Grade Nine Life Rebirth Pill, if consumed, one would be able to enter a state of false death for a short period of time, where no one will be able to discover it!"

Zi Lingxue looked at the small pill in Yun Xuan's hand.

She was an alchemist herself, so she was not unfamiliar with the name Life Continuing Pill. The Nine Palace Mountain Diagram had also recorded that the Life Rebirth Pill and the Grade 9 pill already possessed the ability to take human form. After consuming it, one would enter the Turtle Aura state, which was also the state of false death.

After that, as long as he consumed the Soul-Returning Grass at a set time, he would be able to wake up again. If he didn't consume it in time, he would become a living corpse forever!

Therefore, Yun Xuan could only ask out Zi Lingxue's own intentions in a conflicted manner.

Although Zi Lingxue had refined a seventh or eighth grade pellet before, this was the first time she had seen a ninth grade pellet, but Yun Xuan was able to easily stay on his body.

This was the first time in Zi Lingxue's heart that she wanted to understand the true strength behind the legendary Yun Clan.

How could Yun Xuan, such a proud son of heaven, appear in the Bei Yue?!

"You want me to faked my death and lead the culprit to appear?" Zi Lingxue had already guessed Yun Xuan's plan. She wanted to lure the snake out of its cave.

Yun Xuan nodded his head, "In the past, I wasn't anxious because my Supreme House is located in the South Maple realm, and is extremely far from the Bei Yue. Even if the person who tried to kill you contacted the assassin using the Supreme House, they would only be low-levelled killers and wouldn't cause much harm to you. But now that the Seventh Guard is dead, his fleeing soul will definitely go back to report to the Supreme House."

"And on your body …"

You're still wearing the cyan colored jade, which is the most fatal part of it. Although your Supreme House has just coincidentally received the money, if you want to kill them, then wait for them to discover your secret, then the entire Supreme House will come out at full power. Or perhaps … Not just Supreme House.

In the end, Yun Xuan was still unable to tell Zi Lingxue about what had happened, and now, even if he did, it would only add to his worries. He wanted to protect Zi Lingxue, so he wouldn't let Zi Lingxue face this alone!

Zi Yueyu anxiously looked at Yun Xuan, "What is this?

Zi Lingxue muttered to herself for a moment, then nodded strongly, "I believe you!"

"Alright!" Yun Xuan's eyelashes fluttered.

"All of you can be rest assured. I am an alchemist by myself. Pills are the most valuable thing for me!" Zi Lingxue comforted everyone.

Yun Xuan lowered his eyes, "There's no time to lose."

"The commotion from earlier was not small. I believe that someone will come when they hear the commotion and the dean will be alarmed. We have no time to lose, just quickly consume this Life Rejuvenating Pill and leave the rest to me!"

Yun Xuan frowned as he looked at Zi Lingxue, using his mouth to speak the words that only Zi Lingxue and the other two could hear, "Xue'er, I'll definitely protect you!"

Zi Yueyu still looked at Yun Xuan with worry, "Young Master Yun, is this really okay!?"

Yun Xuan's tone was serious as he instructed Zi Yueyu who was beside him, "Lingxue is seriously injured and on the verge of death, you guys are also powerless to save him. Since you guys were here first, you should be sad, and I was a step late.

"Do you understand?"

Zi Yueyu and the rest all nodded their heads, "This matter is related to my sister's life, we will definitely not make the slightest mistake, rest assured!"

Just as Zi Lingxue consumed the Life Continuing Pill, she could feel the movements of someone not too far away.

"You must remember what I said. The Rebirth Pill will not be effective until four hours later." After Yun Xuan reassured everyone again and again, he stood up on his tiptoes and quickly left, hiding in the darkness.

Dongfang Xingjian's voice that was filled with dense spirit energy gradually spread out in the Misty Forest, "What happened?"

The defensive light barrier previously set up by the Seventh Guard had long since dissipated, and Zi Lingxue and her group appeared in front of everyone in a sorry state.

The Dense Fog Forest had a unique geographical position. This was because the entire forest was filled with faint smoke. This smoke did not have any poison in one's body. Instead, it would hinder the spread of sound, allowing one to focus on cultivating in the forest.

Thus, it had already been an hour since they had waited for Dongfang Xingjian and the group of elders and students to arrive.

The bottom of Dongfang Xingjian's heart sank. He looked at Zi Lingxue nervously, and spoke with a voice filled with fury, "What happened!"

"Lingxue... "Are you hurt?"

Gong Wushuang's eyes were red, his voice was choked with emotions, "Vice Principal, you're here, quickly save Sister Lingxue!"

"Just now, the few of us were cultivating in the Misty Forest, and then, a black clothed man appeared out of nowhere and attacked Big Sister Lingxue. That black clothed man's strength was extremely high, and even if we were to put our lives on the line, we wouldn't be able to protect Big Sister Lingxue!"

Gong Wushuang wiped away the tears at the corner of his eyes. In the past, he had committed many mistakes and always avoided the empress's punishment in such a pitiful manner, but today, all of these came from the bottom of his heart. Zi Lingxue had nearly died in the hands of the black clothed man!

"Young Master Yun has rushed over, but it's already too late. He's gone after the man in black!"

Zi Lingxue weakly called out, "Vice Principal!"

"Lingxue, don't talk yet." Dongfang Xingjian indicated towards Zi Lingxue.
