8: The fairy left shyly; the outer sect competition was about to begin.

Qingyang Mountain, this mountain is located on the side of Azure Sun City.

Su Yun brought Luo Qingshuang to a natural cave on Qingyang Mountain.

Inside the cave, Su Yun found a relatively flat rock and laid her down on it.

Perhaps because the rock was hard, the previously unconscious Luo Qingshuang woke up.

She looked at her surroundings blankly, but when her gaze shifted to Su Yun, her eyes became sharp, and she was filled with vigilance.

Su Yun suddenly felt a powerful Sword Intent emanating from her gaze.

At this moment, that ice-blue sword flew to her side.

After communicating with the sword spirit, Luo Qingshuang realized that the young man before her intended to treat her injuries.

Realizing she had almost hurt Su Yun just now, she felt a bit guilty and hurriedly apologized to him.

"I'm sorry."

Usually a woman of few words, she didn't know how else to apologize.

She could only say "I'm sorry."

Seeing this, Su Yun immediately understood her thoughts and took the initiative to speak:

"It's fine. It's good to be vigilant toward strangers."

Luo Qingshuang performed an internal inspection and found that her injuries were very severe, and she couldn't circulate her Spiritual Qi.

The Nascent Soul inside her was being eroded by the demonic cultivator's spiritual power, and she didn't even have enough spiritual power to open her Storage Ring.

Thinking about how she was still being hunted by demonic cultivators and fearing she might implicate the young man, she hurriedly said:

"Thank you. Leave quickly, it's dangerous."

"I'll see this through to the end. How may I address you, Fairy?"

"Luo Qingshuang."

"Miss Luo, I am Su Yun. You don't need to worry about the demonic cultivators catching up; I am an Outer Sect Disciple of the Xuanji Sect.

This place is very close to the Xuanji Sect, so the demonic cultivators won't dare to pursue you here."

Su Yun said comfortingly.

"Miss Luo, let me help you remove the demonic spiritual power. My spiritual fire is the nemesis of demonic power."

With that, the Glazed Sacred Fire ignited in Su Yun's hand.

A hint of surprise flashed across Luo Qingshuang's exquisite face, but due to her usually cold personality, it wasn't very obvious.

"Alright."

Seeing her agreement, Su Yun carefully lifted her upper garment, revealing the pink bellyband she wore underneath.

Luo Qingshuang felt her upper garment slowly being pulled back.

She felt a trace of fear in her heart, but looking at Su Yun's handsome face and his serious gaze, she felt he was an upright gentleman who wouldn't take advantage of her vulnerability.

Her bellyband was already torn to pieces because the largest wound was on her abdomen.

A hideous wound had appeared on her originally fair belly.

Black spiritual power was continuously wreaking havoc upon it.

Su Yun carefully controlled the Glazed Sacred Fire.

As soon as the sacred fire touched the black spiritual power, it suddenly began to boil.

And that black spiritual power, as if meeting its nemesis, quickly dissipated a portion.

However, the situation was still very serious.

Stimulated by the external Glazed Sacred Fire, the black spiritual power wreaking havoc inside Luo Qingshuang's body surged out of the wound one after another, clashing with the Glazed Sacred Fire and making a sizzling sound.

Seeing this, Su Yun also felt nervous for Luo Qingshuang.

Spiritual power rampaging through a wound was not something an ordinary person could endure.

He inadvertently glanced at Luo Qingshuang's expression.

He found that she didn't even knit her brows, still maintaining that cold expression.

Luo Qingshuang had originally felt cold all over due to the destruction caused by the black spiritual power.

But after the Glazed Sacred Fire entered her body, she suddenly felt very warm, and the discomfort in her body gradually vanished.

What Su Yun didn't notice was that as the black spiritual power continued to disappear, Luo Qingshuang's body gradually regained sensation, making her body sensitive.

Feeling Su Yun's gaze fixed on her skin, the back of her ears slowly turned red.

At first, Su Yun was very serious about clearing the black spiritual power for Luo Qingshuang, but as he cleared more and more areas, his breathing became heavy.

As Luo Qingshuang's body temperature gradually rose, crystal-clear beads of sweat slid down from her forehead, across her tender white cheeks, and finally dripped onto the rock; a faint fragrance filled the air.

After all, Luo Qingshuang was a female protagonist-level woman; her beauty and attraction were beyond words.

Two hours passed.

Su Yun didn't know how many times he had taken Medicinal Pills to replenish his spiritual power, but he finally removed the residual spiritual power of several Nascent Soul Stage demonic cultivators from her body.

After feeling the black spiritual power in her body removed, Luo Qingshuang could finally circulate her spiritual power.

She immediately opened her Storage Ring, took out healing Medicinal Pills, and began to refine the medicinal power after consuming them.

Perhaps because the Medicinal Pills she took were high-grade, her external wounds disappeared at a visible rate, and her spiritual power was fully restored.

"Thank you. This is for you, a life-saving jade talisman. Activate it with spiritual power."

Luo Qingshuang took out a palm-sized sword-shaped jade pendant from her Storage Ring.

After stuffing the jade pendant into Su Yun's hand, she quickly dressed, rose, and left the cave on her sword.

Holding the jade talisman in his hand, Su Yun looked at her back and sighed:

"Miss Luo is really too cold; she left before we could say more than a few words."

But what he didn't know was that Luo Qingshuang was too shy, which was why she was in such a hurry to leave.

Her cold expression had almost crumbled.

On the way back to the Taixuan Holy Land, her ears turned bright red, and her heart, which was usually as calm as a still well, rippled with waves as scenes from earlier kept replaying in her mind... Outer Sect Disciple's residence.

Su Yun took out the jade talisman he had just obtained and found that the spiritual runes carved on it were very complex.

"System, help me analyze this jade talisman."

[Ding! Analysis complete. This jade talisman contains a full-strength strike from the Body Integration Layer One.]

[It can be used three times in total and can be activated by inputting spiritual power.]

"Miss Luo is indeed generous; today's harvest is quite good."

Su Yun put away the jade talisman and was about to start practicing.

At this moment, the Outer Sect Disciple token suddenly received a message and began to vibrate.

Su Yun took out his token from his Storage Pouch, input spiritual power, and the information on it was projected out.

It turned out to be an Outer Sect Disciple assembly order, summoning all Outer Sect Disciples to the Outer Sect Square for a meeting... Having received the summons, Su Yun quickly arrived at the Outer Sect Square.

Once everyone had arrived, the Outer Sect Managing Elder, Elder Wang, flew onto the high platform on his sword, followed by several Outer Sect Deacons.

"Ahem, is everyone here?"

"Today, I have an important matter to announce. In seven days, the annual Outer Sect Grand Competition will be held again, and all Outer Sect Disciples must participate."

"Another point is that the ranking in this Outer Sect Grand Competition also determines the amount of resources each Disciple can receive.

The higher the Rank, the more resources you can receive each month.

The top ten Disciples will not only receive generous rewards but also gain a spot to enter the Sect's Secret Realm."

"Everyone, prepare well."

After Elder Wang finished speaking, he signaled for everyone to return to their cultivation.

Su Yun did not leave after the assembly dispersed.

He carefully observed the life scripts of the Outer Sect Disciples; except for the protagonist Zhang Tian, who had a purple Luck Rank, the highest among the others were green and blue.

The highest Realm among these Outer Sect Disciples was the Foundation Establishment Tenth Layer.

The protagonist Zhang Tian had actually reached Foundation Establishment as well, already at the Foundation Establishment Layer One Realm.

However, perhaps because Su Yun had plundered several opportunities.

The Luck Rank of his life script had changed from the original purple to a light purple tinged with red.

It seemed his Luck was gradually fading.

Thinking of this, Su Yun intended to work harder to snatch all of Zhang Tian's opportunities.

So he opened Zhang Tian's life script to see if there were any changes in the opportunities column.
