Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 316 Do you want to see the Mysterious Woman Painting?

Kong Yan, who had stayed at Soul Dwelling Mountain on other important matters, was unaware of what had happened.

Lin Jinran arrived late and wasn't entirely sure.

When he arrived, he only saw the seriously injured Shen Quelin, and then Shen Youqing suddenly appeared.

It can't be said to be sudden, after all, there was a Demon Lord present.

It's fair to say that he simply couldn't understand the situation.

Lin Jinran said to her senior sister, "I can heal meridian damage, but this dantian..."

As we all know, damage to the dantian is almost irreversible, and as of now, his medical skills are not good enough to repair the dantian.

Kong Yanxin's heart sank slightly.

Jiang Xuan'an, who was standing next to him, bowed to his master and began to recount the whole story.

He was present throughout the entire process and witnessed everything firsthand.

After Jiang Xuan'an finished speaking, Kong Yan and Lin Jinran could understand why Shen Youqing was so badly injured.

Besides, she was previously in the hands of a demonic cultivator!
The man squatting beside her looked at Shen Youqing, his eyes filled with increasing heartache and self-reproach.

It was his incompetence that prevented him from protecting Qingqing and the people she cared about.

Shen Youqing looked down at the man who was almost overwhelmed by self-blame and heartache, and gently touched his head with her finger, telling him not to overthink things.

"You child..." Kong Yan wanted to scold him but couldn't bear to. Looking at Shen Youqing's pale face, his tone softened with deep heartache, "Have you thought about what you're going to do in the future?"

Dantian is damaged!

Her life has only just begun!

"Sect Leader Kong," Shen Youqing said slowly, looking at Kong Yan, "My injuries are not solely due to this matter; I was injured in the Demon Realm as well."

To reiterate, she never regrets anything she has done!
Mentioning the Demon Realm caused everyone's faces to turn cold.

Yue Xunzhu's gentle voice was unusually forceful, "Even if it's for treatment, it shouldn't be now. Jinjin has finally come back, let her go back and rest first."

After saying that, Yue Xunzhu bowed to Lin Jinran and said, "I will have to trouble Venerable Lin to take a look at Que Lin."

Lin Jinran glanced at Shen Quelin, who was covered in blood. "Shen Youqing's condition is relatively stable now. I also need time to consider how to treat him. Young Master Shen, come here. Let me check your injuries first."

These two siblings are really taking a very challenging route to get injured.

Yue Xunzhu glanced at Shen Youqing and Xiao Ke beside her, then spoke to the loyal-dog-like man, "Please trouble Young Master Xiao to take Jinjin back to rest first."

Xiao Ke responded and carried Shen Youqing away.

Back at his lodgings, he placed Shen Youqing by the bedside and then took out a porcelain bottle.

"The medicine is a little cold." Xiao Ke dipped his fingertip into the white ointment in the bottle and then carefully applied it to Shen Youqing's neck.

When someone touched her neck, one of her weaknesses, Shen Youqing couldn't help but flinch and lean back to avoid it.

Xiao Ke placed the porcelain bottle on the edge of the bed, then reached out and supported the back of Shen Youqing's head, the warm force gripping her head so she couldn't dodge.

The ghost baby perched on Shen Youqing's shoulder spat out a stone and crawled away, showing remarkable insight.

Unable to move his head, Shen Youqing picked up the stone, its cool texture resembling jade.

The marks on his neck were treated with medicine. Xiao Ke withdrew his hand, and his clear, deep voice rang out, "Where else are you injured?"

Shen Youqing could sense that Xiao Ke was in low spirits. She thought for a moment and then said, "It seems that the external injuries are gone."

The most serious external injury is the strangulation mark on the neck; other places are not that serious and don't require such trouble.

Xiao Ke responded, his clear, unwavering gaze revealing little emotion. He wiped the ointment from his fingertips with a handkerchief. "Would you like to take a bath?"

Shen Youqing was stunned for a moment, and only when he smelled the blood on his body did he realize how disheveled he looked.

"Sure." Shen Youqing also wanted to take a nice, relaxing hot bath.

After preparing hot water, Xiao Ke picked up the ghost baby and went outside.

When Yue Xunzhu arrived, she saw Xiao Ke standing there, with the ghost infant crawling all over the ground, and the house behind him was covered by a barrier.

"He was badly injured," Xiao Ke replied succinctly.

Yue Xunzhu frowned.

Does this mean we have no choice but to hand Jinjin over to the Demon Lord?
Xiao Ke parted his thin lips slightly, "I have a way."

Yue Xunzhu's slightly suspicious gaze fell on Xiao Ke.

What could a Golden Core cultivator possibly do? Besides, he was just an alchemist, not a physician.

Xiao Youqi strode in from outside, and upon seeing the man's cold aura, he knew that the man was not in a good mood.

Yue Xunzhu nodded slightly in greeting.

Xiao Youqi nodded in return, his cold voice ringing out, "Xiao Er has a special constitution."

What do you mean?
“Dual cultivation.” Xiao Youqi glanced at Xiao Ke, then looked at Yue Xunzhu, whose eyes were slightly narrowed. “If Venerable Lin is helpless, then we can only try anything as a last resort.”

Yue Xunzhu didn't know where to begin.

Young Master Xiao would never joke about something like this, but Jin Jin's situation... to put it bluntly, her physical condition is not suitable for dual cultivation.

"I've come with bad news." Xiao Youqi's expression turned serious. "There's a problem with the Guardian Realm."

?

Yue Xunzhu's expression instantly turned serious.

Xiao Ke's expression didn't change much; his mind was entirely on Shen Youqing.

When Shen Youqing finished bathing and came out of the house wearing a new dress, only Xiao Ke and Yue Xunzhu were in the courtyard.

“But nothing happened to the neighbors,” Yue Xunzhu said. “His injuries are just scary to look at.”

Shen Youqing was not at ease.

Yue Xunzhu began to explain Shen Quelin's condition in detail, "Because of the body tempering, Quelin's physique has become much stronger. His injuries are all superficial. Now, due to excessive blood loss, he is weak, but his meridians and dantian are fine."

Shen Youqing breathed a sigh of relief.

"He's alright, but what about you?" Yue Xunzhu's pained gaze held a hint of reproach. "Jinjin, why did you risk your life like that?"

Shen Quelin is the young master, and the Shen and Yue families would never abandon him. The situation was dangerous, but the Venerables could have saved Shen Quelin.

To put it bluntly, if Jinjin had arrived even a little later, the Venerable Ones would have already taken action.

Shen Youqing waved and called the two people into the house.

After the soundproof barrier was erected, Shen Youqing looked at the two of them, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Would you like to see the Xuan Nu Painting?"

Although they had guessed it beforehand, Shen Youqing's direct approach still caught them completely off guard.

The two were completely bewildered, unaware that even more bewildering news was yet to come.

Yue Xunzhu's gaze unconsciously drifted towards Xiao Ke, and the thought of killing him to silence him flashed through her mind.

Xiao Ke was stunned, never expecting Shen Youqing to reveal his trump card like that.

Does Qingqing's straightforwardness mean that she trusts me a little?

This conjecture made his throat quite dry, his Adam's apple bobbed, and a dark undercurrent brewed in his peach blossom eyes.

Yue Xunzhu regained her voice and looked at Shen Youqing with a complicated expression. "Jinjin, there's no need to look."

Xiao Ke seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Shen Youqing with a probing gaze, "Qingqing, the birth of the Xuan Nu's lineage will inevitably be accompanied by extraordinary natural phenomena..."

He had investigated the matter of the Xuan Nu's inheritance extensively, and there had never been any extraordinary natural phenomena before.

He stopped mid-sentence and said, "Qingqing, don't be angry. It's not that I don't believe you."
