Chapter 231: The Weak Don't Need to Know Too Much!
Looking at this sword, and the figure rapidly approaching from the horizon with a fierce wind, Dao Xuan Zhenren’s tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed a little.
A hint of surprise flashed in Zeng Shuchang’s eyes.
"It's Su Han!"
"This kid finally came!"
The other Head Seats also rekindled hope in their eyes upon hearing this.
Tian Buyi paused his hand that was stroking his beard and said repeatedly, "Good, good, with Su Han here, this competition might still have a turning point."
Everyone was filled with anticipation, their gaze closely following Su Han’s figure.
However, as Su Han got closer and they saw his precarious state and the faint bloodstain on his lips, the surprise was instantly replaced by heartbreaking worry.
Dao Xuan Zhenren's expression changed, and he blurted out, "How could he be so badly injured!"
He subconsciously took a step forward, as if wanting to immediately go to Su Han's side to check his injuries.
Su Ru was even more anxious, her eyes slightly red. "This child, the Heavenly Tribulation just passed, and he hasn't recovered from his severe injuries. Coming here by force like this, is he not afraid of death!"
She unconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes, anxiety written all over her face.
Tianyun Daoren also sighed deeply, "Alas..."
"Su Han has the heart to help our Qingyun Sect, but in his current state, can he hold on?"
"Don't end up sacrificing himself."
The Head Seats spoke one after another, their hearts filled with worry for Su Han. The glimmer of hope that had just ignited was now shrouded in gloom.
They were all afraid that Su Han's hasty arrival would worsen his already severe injuries.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The Incense Valley Disciples looked at Su Han, who had suddenly intruded and disrupted the situation, with curiosity.
Liu Xiaoxiao tugged at Yan Hong’s sleeve beside her and whispered, "Senior Sister, who is this kid who suddenly appeared?"
"Look at those old guys from Qingyun Sect. They were just despairing, then suddenly acted like they were pumped up, and now they're deflated again."
Yan Hong shook her head, "I'm not sure, but judging by this, he must have some background."
Lü Shun and Shangguan Ce, being highly cultivated, heard the discussions of the surrounding people clearly.
They both showed expressions of disdain.
"A Genius Disciple from Xiao Zhu Peak?"
"Xiao Zhu Peak, isn't that where female Disciples gather? What kind of amazing Genius could come out of there? He definitely can't be a match for Li Xun."
"But that sword of his is interesting. It actually managed to temporarily break the Eight shortage Mysterious Fire Formation."
Lü Shun curled his lip, full of mockery, but his eyes were full of greed when looking at the Ni Lin Sword.
Shangguan Ce also nodded, echoing with contempt, "Even if he has a handy weapon, so what?"
"In this severely injured and dying state, he's just coming to be a laughingstock."
"I want to see what other low-level tricks their Qingyun Sect can pull."

And at this moment, on the arena.
Lu Xueqi looked up at the sky and saw Su Han in black clothes and Shui Yue approaching on their swords.
"Su Han Senior Brother!"
Lu Xueqi blurted out, her voice filled with unconcealed surprise and worry.
Soon, Su Han landed on the arena.
It was then that Lu Xueqi saw Su Han's condition...
His face was as pale as paper, his lips were bloodless, but his eyes were still full of spirit.
"Su Han Senior Brother, you... your injury?"
Lu Xueqi quickly supported Su Han, her eyes full of heartache.
"It's nothing."
Su Han said lightly, taking a deep breath to suppress the surging sweetness in his throat.
His gaze swept over the slightly cracked Eight shortage Mysterious Fire Formation, then looked at Xue Qi, and slightly pulled up the corners of his mouth, revealing a weak smile.
"Lu Xueqi, Senior Brother didn't come too late, did he?"
"No..."
Lu Xueqi looked at the weak-voiced Su Han, and quickly shook her head vigorously, her voice carrying a hint of undetectable tremor.
Then she quickly said, "Senior Brother, you haven't recovered from your severe injuries, why aren't you resting properly."
"You can leave this place to Junior Sister."
Su Han looked at Lu Xueqi, smiled and shook his head, "Lu Xueqi, don't worry, I can still hold on."
"Besides, if I didn't come, how could I be at ease?"
"Watching you face this Eight shortage Mysterious Fire Formation alone, Senior Brother can't do it... cough cough."
As he spoke, Su Han coughed again.
Lu Xueqi's eyes instantly turned red, full of emotion, and she gently patted Su Han's back.
"Senior Brother, you say you can hold on, but you're coughing like this!"
"Just leave it to Junior Sister. After all, how could this competition be more important than your safety? If something happens to Senior Brother, I..."
Lu Xueqi bit her lip and didn't continue, but it was clear what she meant.
Su Han naturally couldn't agree to Lu Xueqi's request.
After all, this Eight shortage Mysterious Fire Formation was personally set up by Valley Master Yun Yilan. If Su Han didn't have the corresponding ability, even in his Peak state, he would have a headache facing this formation. Lu Xueqi naturally couldn't break the formation at all.
And Su Han knew Lu Xueqi's competitive nature very well.
If he let her continue, even if she risked her life, she would never admit defeat.
Thinking about this.
Su Han gently held Xue Qi's small hand, feeling the coldness and trembling of her fingertips.
"Xue Qi, I said I'm fine, don't you believe me?"
"And it's just a Li Xun, plus an Eight shortage Mysterious Fire Formation, they're just insignificant."
"Leave it to me, you go down and rest first."
Lu Xueqi looked at Su Han's serious eyes, "But..."
"There are no buts, listen to me."
Finally, Lu Xueqi pursed her lips and nodded heavily at Su Han: "Okay, Senior Brother."
"However..."
Lu Xueqi looked at Su Han gently, "Senior Brother, if you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself. Senior Brother's safety is the most important."
"Okay, Senior Brother promises you."
Lu Xueqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She was about to say something when she was interrupted by a voice full of anger.
"Where did this idiot come from? Doesn't he know that this is my competition with Lu Xueqi?"
On the opposite side.
Li Xun stood in the Eight shortage Mysterious Fire Formation, staring sinisterly at Lu Xueqi and Su Han's clasped hands, and the intimacy that could be sensed between them without words.
Then he thought of how Lu Xueqi didn't even look him in the eye when facing him.
Jealousy. It gnawed at his heart like a poisonous snake.
Li Xun snorted coldly again and questioned loudly, "Lu Xueqi, who is this person next to you?"
"Coming to cause trouble in such a severely injured state, are you tired of living?"
Upon hearing this, Su Han slightly raised his head and his cold gaze swept towards Li Xun.
"You're Li Xun from Incense Valley, right?"
"The weak don't need to know too much!"
Li Xun's face turned pale with anger at Su Han's confident words.
He gritted his teeth at Su Han and said, "Good, good, good!"
"So arrogant, I hope you really have the ability and aren't just bragging!"
Su Han didn't answer, but gently patted Lu Xueqi's shoulder, signaling her to leave the arena.
Only after Lu Xueqi left, looking back three times with every step, did Su Han look at Li Xun again.
"Li Xun from Incense Valley, Peak of Shaoyang Nine Layers, please enlighten me."
Li Xun impatiently hooked his finger at Su Han.
