nShock

nUpon hearing Qin Xiu and Zhou Yun’s words, the people were in an uproar.

nZhou Yun had actually comprehended sword intent, and with just a finger, he had injured Qin Xiu, who was at the ninth layer of Qi cultivation!

nEveryone present looked at Zhou Yun with deep shock.

nJi ha and Jiang Qian opened their mouths wide in disbelief.

nThey all recalled what Zhou Yun had said at the start. “You’re not qualified!”

nNow, it seemed that Qin Xiu was really not qualified to fight with Zhou Yun in any aspect.

nThe female disciples who had come to watch all covered their mouths and looked at Zhou Yun in surprise.

nOriginally, they had been attracted by Zhou Yun’s talent in alchemy. Now, they had seen Zhou Yun defeat Qin Xiu, who was at the ninth layer of Qi cultivation, with only one move.

nAt this moment, their eyes were filled with adoration as they fantasized about becoming cultivation companions with Zhou Yun.

nJi Ha and Jiang Qian came to Qin Xiu’s side and took out a healing pill for him to take. After a while, Qin Xiu slowly stood up from the ground, and the wounds on his body began to scab.

nQin Xiu took a deep look at Zhou Yun and was about to leave with Ji Ha and Jiang Qian.

nAt this moment, Qiao’er hurried over from a distance. Before she arrived, people already heard her shouting.

n“Who dares to bully my brother Zhou Yun?”

nEveryone turned around when they heard the voice. They saw Qiao’er still a few hundred meters away, and her senior sister Su Wanyi was beside her.

nAfter the two of them received the news of Qin Xiu and Zhou Yun’s duel, they rushed over in a hurry.

n“Don’t tell me they’ve already finished fighting! Brother Zhou Yun’s cultivation layer isn’t as high as Qin Xiu’s, and he doesn’t have any killing techniques yet. If the two of them have a fight, he’ll definitely be at a disadvantage!”

nAs Qiao’er rushed to Zhou Yun’s cave, she was so anxious that she almost cried. Su Wanyi also looked really worried when she heard this.

nHearing Qiao’er’s voice, Qin Xiu, who was originally being supported by Ji Ha and Jiang Qian, hurriedly pushed them away.

nIt didn’t matter if he lost face in front of others, but he couldn’t lose face in front of Qiao’er, who he liked.

nWith this thought in mind, Qin Xiu took out a coat and covered his wounds. He could not let Qiao’er know that Zhou Yun had hurt him.

nLooking at Qin Xiu’s stubborn face, Ji ha and Jiang Qian felt kind of helpless. He was already so injured, and how was that going to make him look better?

n“Brother Zhou Yun, are you hurt?”

nQiao’er finally made it over. She flew over the crowd and landed beside Zhou Yun.

nQiao’er looked around Zhou Yun. Nobody said anything so she asked Zhou Yun again.

n“What is the matter? Let’s go inside then take off your clothes and I’ll help you check if anything is wrong.”

nAs soon as Qiao’er said this, everyone gasped in surprise!

nEveryone looked at Zhou Yun with envy.

nTo stay in the same room as Junior Sister Qiao’er was the common dream of most of the male disciples in the sect.

nQiao’er ignored everyone’s exclamations and continued to examine if Zhou Yun had any wounds as she spoke. She lifted Zhou Yun’s arms and touched his back from time to time.

nHer small hand touched almost every part of Zhou Yun, instantly causing an uproar among the surrounding people. The envy in their eyes gradually turned into jealousy, and then into anger.

nAfter a while, many people clenched their fists and surrounded him.

nQiao’er was the goddess in the eyes of the disciples! And their goddess now was touching another man’s body.

nWho could tolerate this?

nFeeling the anger in everyone’s eyes, Zhou Yun quickly grabbed the small hand that was touching his body.

n“I’m not injured!”

nAs soon as her hand was being held by Zhou Yun, Qiao’er immediately felt a little shy. Suddenly, her eyes flashed, and with her sharp eyes she saw that there was a little damage on Zhou Yun’s fingertip, and it was bleeding.

n“Isn’t this blood? brother Zhou Yun must have suffered internal injuries.”

nQiao’er lifted Zhou Yun’s hand and showed it to those people, and they were all dumbfounded.

nWas that an injury?

nThose with bad eyesight wouldn’t be able to see where the injury was, right?

nThey were afraid the wound will heal before it was bandaged.

n“Brother Zhou Yun must have suffered internal injuries. He didn’t want to make others worried about him, so he didn’t tell us.” Qiao’er didn’t think like the others.

nThinking of this, Qiao’er looked up at Qin Xiu.

n“Qin Xiu, you’ve just injured Brother Zhou Yun. I want to duel with you. Let’s go to the arena to fight!”

nAs soon as she finished speaking, Qin Xiu was dumbfounded. He directly spat out a mouthful of blood and immediately lost the will to live.

nIf he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have tried to show off.

nIf he had known earlier, he would have just laid on the ground and not get up.

nAfter Qin Xiu’s excitement, the wound on his chest that had just healed split open again, and blood directly soaked his shirt.

nSenior Sister Su Wanyi saw this and quickly stepped forward to stop Qiao’er. “Zhou Yun did not suffer any losses. He must be the winner of this duel!”

nHearing her Senior Sister’s words, Qiao’er looked at Zhou Yun again. “Brother Zhou Yun, are you sure you are not injured?”

n“Yeah, of course!” Zhou Yun couldn’t help but sympathize with Qin Xiu when he saw his tragic state.

n“Okay! Brother Zhou Yun is the best!”

nSeeing that the battle had ended, the crowd dispersed.

n“Brother Zhou Yun, I want to take a look at your cave!”

n“Let’s go, I’ll take you to see!” Zhou Yun held Qiao’er’s hand and walked toward his cave.

nWhen the three of them reached the entrance of the cave, Qiao’er suddenly turned her head and said to Qin Xiu.

n“This is all you’ve got at the ninth layer of Qi cultivation? You actually lost to Brother Zhou Yun at the eighth layer of Qi cultivation!”

nQiao’er’s words were like a critical sword. Qin Xiu spat out another mouthful of blood and fainted.

nAfter Zhou Yun brought Qiao’er and Su Wanyi to his cave, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.

n“How dense the spiritual Qi is here!”

n“There’s actually such a large spiritual spring? This place is much better than my inner sect disciple’s cave!”

n“Wow, even the grass here has been nurtured into spiritual grass!”

nThe two of them looked at the cave dwelling in front of them and exclaimed repeatedly. In the end, they both looked really envious.

nAfter they sat down, Qiao’er took the initiative to ask about the duel today.

n“Brother Zhou Yun, how did you beat him? Have you reached the foundation establishment stage?”

nAlthough Qiao’er didn’t ask just now, she knew that there must be a reason why Zhou Yun was able to beat Qin Xiu and did not get hurt. It couldn’t be luck.

n“No, I’m still at the eighth layer of the Qi cultivation. The reason why I was able to win was that I have comprehended sword intent!”

nZhou Yun’s words were very plain, which, however, shocked Qiao’er and Su Wanyi a lot.

nHe had comprehended sword intent?

nHow was that possible?

nSword intent!

nThat was the same as enlightenment, which was something that could only be encountered but not sought!

nHowever, she immediately came back to her senses. Zhou Yun wasn’t some random guy in the street.

nDidn’t he also refine a perfect medicinal pill back then?

nThinking of this, Su Wanyi felt that it made sense.
