196: Seed

“Ah!!!”

Han Yi was startled by Bai Sanren's injuries, not to mention Qian Xue, whose personality was gentle, immediately cried out in surprise.

“It's all my fault, I, I will definitely practice martial arts well when I go back. If Grandpa Bai hadn't protected me just now, he wouldn't have been so seriously injured...”

Qian Xue, who had just stopped crying, immediately had teary eyes and shed tears again. The tears flowed down her fair little face, fell to the ground, and shattered into eight pieces.

“Qian Xue, go find a basin of warm water first, change the gauze, and clean the wound again...”

Han Yi's expression remained unchanged as he calmly instructed.

He knew that at this moment, a backbone had to stand out; both of them couldn't panic!

“Okay!”

Perhaps Han Yi's calm demeanor infected Qian Xue. She nodded heavily, her emotions stabilized, and a hint of determination appeared on her face as she scurried off to prepare.

“

Han Yi had a reason for deliberately sending Qian Xue away. After all, if he really showed the characteristics of Strength...

He really couldn't explain it!

He couldn't possibly say that he had an Epiphany overnight and broke through to Connecting Veins!

This reason was indeed too incredible, so it was better to keep it a secret for now.

Smack!

Then, Han Yi circulated the Evil Breaking Force with both hands and placed them on Bai Sanren's wound. The formless and qualityless Evil Breaking Force was then transmitted in, circulating and permeating with the blood...

Sizzle, sizzle!

When the Evil Breaking Force was transmitted to the inside of the heart and lungs with the blood, it suddenly encountered some unknown obstruction, making a slight popping sound like green onions, ginger, and garlic put into hot oil.

“Hmm? Could it be that I really guessed correctly?”

Under Han Yi's Strength perception, this obstruction rooted in the blood vessels, preventing blood from flowing, was a round object the size of a soybean.

And this also seemed to coincide with one of his ideas...

Although there were a large number of these things in Bai Sanren's heart meridian and spleen, clashing with and consuming Han Yi's Evil Breaking Force.

However, this object was, after all, a source-less water, while the Evil Breaking Force was continuous. Soon, as the Evil Breaking Force swept back and forth through Bai Sanren's blood vessels in several cycles, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, it thoroughly washed away all the Yin Qi in his body.

Subsequently, without these obstructions, Bai Sanren's own strong vitality as a Lianxue Stage Martial Artist came into play, and powerful Qi and blood with temperature rapidly flowed throughout his body.

It was precisely because of this that Bai Sanren's face gradually regained some color, and his Aura also began to slowly strengthen.

“Ugh!”

Suddenly, Bai Sanren opened his mouth wide, making an expression as if he wanted to vomit.

Han Yi quickly helped Bai Sanren up, changed his posture, and gently patted his back with his left hand.

“Pfft!”

After Han Yi completed a series of actions, Bai Sanren suddenly spat out a large mouthful of black blood, mixed with a large amount of black stuff emitting a fishy, black smell.

And in this disgusting vomit, Han Yi caught a glimpse of several dull, inconspicuous seeds from the corner of his eye.

'It's exactly as I imagined...'

He was somewhat alarmed, not expecting that Old Peach Tree to be so insidious, hiding its offspring's seeds within others' bodies.

No wonder he didn't discover these things when he first removed the Yin Qi imprint from Bai Sanren's glabella...

At that time, when Bai Sanren protected Qian Xue and blocked the attack for her, these seeds were probably buried deep in the blood vessels.

And because of the bleeding, there were several layers of gauze on the wound. As long as there was nothing unusual, who would unnecessarily remove the gauze and look through the wound? And the seeds wouldn't make any movement as long as they weren't activated.

Furthermore, at that time, Han Yi also left in a hurry and had no time to check. After clearing the imprint on Bai Sanren's glabella, he was anxious to find Old Peach Tree to fight...

Subsequently, after Han Yi left, these seeds took root, sprouted, absorbed the Qi and blood within the Martial Artist's body, destroyed vitality, and grew vigorously!

This led to Bai Sanren's prolonged unconsciousness...

“Cough, cough...”

“Where am I...” Bai Sanren finally woke up after spitting out the things in his body, and asked weakly.

“Grandpa Bai!”

At this moment, Qian Xue also walked in with a basin of hot water. Seeing Grandpa Bai wake up, she quickly ran over and used a hot towel to wipe the dirt from the corners of his mouth.

“What? Illusion?”

Hearing Qian Xue roughly explain the current situation while wiping Bai Sanren's face, Bai Sanren was dumbfounded after listening, feeling as if he was listening to a heavenly book. He clearly remembered achieving his long-cherished dream of advancing the “Bai Family Swordplay” to a higher level just yesterday...

Waking up only to be told it was all just a dream, an illusion... No one could accept that!

“Yes, Grandpa Bai, Yi Gege said that the Old Peach Tree in the village turned into an Yin and created an illusion to poison and confuse us in order to kill us...”

Qian Xue's tone revealed a hint of loss. In the illusion, she had clearly learned about her Mother's long-standing heart ailment and successfully resolved it. Moreover, most importantly, she had brought Han Yi home and gained acceptance...

But who knew, this big bad Han Yi actually told her it was all fake!

Hmph!

“Han Boy, what Qian Xue said, is it true or false?”

After Qian Xue finished speaking, Bai Sanren looked incredulous, turned his head, and asked Han Yi.

“Sanren Bai, Qian Xue is right... We all fell into an illusion just now...”

“Then, are we safe now?”

“Hmm... I found this item in Huang An's carriage, so I took care of those things!”

Han Yi said calmly, holding an arrow about seventy to eighty centimeters long, with a four-edged arrowhead, winged tail, fiery red body, and an imposing Aura, like a blazing flame.

There were a total of three “Yang Flame Arrow” in Huang An's carriage. He had used two, and one remained.

“Is this the “Yang Flame Arrow”?”

Bai Sanren was indeed knowledgeable and recognized the item at a glance, speaking in surprise.

“I heard that using this arrow requires a large consumption of Qi and blood, and may even shorten one's lifespan...” He gave Han Yi a deep look, with a hint of heartache in his eyes.

At this moment, although Han Yi had no fatal injuries, his clothes were tattered, and on his exposed skin, one could see large and small brown scabs all over his body.

And on his scalp, there were traces of being burned, with no hair at all...

His state further confirmed to Bai Sanren that Han Yi must have suffered the burns from igniting the “Yang Flame Arrow” at close range!
