After the huge fluctuation, calm returned to the thatched house.
Su Xinghe felt uneasy but wanted to go over and take a look. Seeing Bai Ling'er being taken care of by her mother-in-law and Ye Rou, she walked out of the kitchen with peace of mind.
He tiptoed in front of the thatched cottage door and listened to the sounds in the room.
In the room, Xie Pingzhi's sword hung over Zhou Tian's abdomen. The runes on the sword kept moving. When he looked at it again, the runes seemed to be alive. They kept falling off the sword and hitting his abdomen.
After a while, the black gas above Zhou Tian's abdomen slowly disappeared. After a while, the black gas disappeared, and the runes on the sword also disappeared.
Xie Pingzhi's face was pale, his hands and feet were weak and he was sitting on the edge of the bed, panting heavily and wiping the sweat from his forehead, as if he had just experienced a fight with a weapon.
"Come in, I know you are outside!"
Su Xinghe was stunned and slowly pushed the door open. Seeing Xie Pingzhi's tired look, he stepped forward and asked softly: "Old sir, what's the matter?"
Xie Pingzhi waved his hand to the bedside above: "It shouldn't be a big problem. I thought that the soul-eating energy in his body would backfire, and he had a certain death mentality, but he never thought that the soul-eating energy had been absorbed by Zhou Tian.
Partly, no wonder he still has such a strong body even after the Qi Hai was dispersed by the Haotian Ancestor."
"Now, I have opened up the soul-eating energy all over his body and penetrated all parts of his body. Let's see when he wakes up!"
After saying that, Xie Pingzhi reluctantly got up and sat at the wooden table and drank a glass of water.
After Su Xinghe heard his explanation, he was extremely happy. He sat on the edge of the bed and watched Zhou Tian's face turn rosy. He turned sideways and wanted to thank Xie Pingzhi for his help.
But what surprised him was that Xie Pingzhi, who had been explaining to him just now, was now lying on the table motionless.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Su Xinghe hurriedly stepped forward and patted his back, but there was still no response.
Then he tried to push, but almost pushed Xie Pingzhi down. The panicked Su Xinghe quickly helped Xie Pingzhi to the bedside, and suddenly found that his body was very thin. Looking out of the corner of his eye, Xie Pingzhi seemed to have expired.
He put his trembling fingers under his nose, and sure enough, he was no longer breathing.
Su Xinghe was so shocked that he sat down on the edge of the bed. He was so overwhelmed that he didn't know where to look. Then he rushed out of the door and ran to the kitchen.
Seeing her mother-in-law's kind face, she didn't know how to tell her, so she pulled Ye Rou over.
Ye Rou looked at her curiously and found a little fear in his eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Su Xinghe's slightly trembling lips said vaguely: "Zhou Tian is fine, but, thanks to the old man, he is already dead!"
Ye Rou was also very surprised when she heard the news. She had just made an agreement with her mother-in-law and was about to go to Xuantian Sect with Mr. Xie. Something happened. She shook her head incomprehensibly: "What should I do? What if my mother-in-law
I know, what should I do? I gave her hope just now, and now not only is the hope shattered, but she also suffers misfortune, how can she bear this!"
Su Xinghe looked at Ye Rou in confusion. After a while, Su Xinghe gradually calmed down and grabbed Ye Rou's hand: "No matter what, don't tell your mother-in-law the truth for the time being. Just make up a random reason and ask your mother-in-law to leave with us first."
, it won’t be too late to tell my mother-in-law when her spirit improves in the future!”
Ye Rou nodded helplessly: "That's all we can do now."
After discussing, the two came to the thatched house together. To Su Xinghe's surprise and sadness, Zhou Tian was right in front of Xie Pingzhi at this time, with a confused look on his face, and looked at Xie Pingzhi's face innocently and without any knowledge.
Body.
"Zhou Tian! Are you awake?"
Su Xinghe ran up and looked Zhou Tian up and down, but all Zhou Tian could see was the dead Xie Pingzhi.
"How about Mr. Xie?"
Zhou Tian asked incredulously, Su Xinghe gradually lowered his head after hearing this, not knowing how to explain.
Ye Rou knew that Su Xinghe couldn't tell her, so she told the whole story. After Zhou Tian heard this, he was in so much pain that he couldn't shout out loud because of the heartbreaking feeling. He couldn't bear the pain in his heart and grabbed Su Xinghe's hand.
Collar: "Second brother! Why do you want Mr. Xie to take action in this situation? You can't wait any longer. In order to save me, you lose another person's life. How do you want me to face it in the future?"
Seeing Zhou Tian's sad look, Su Xinghe patted him on the shoulder and said with a choked voice: "Third brother, he saved your life. He praised your ability at the beginning, and he also told me privately.
, Xihuan is now a mess, especially Haotian Pavilion, which dominates the land of Xihuan. If no one can stop their actions, I am afraid Xihuan will completely fall."
"And he hopes that you can stand up, and I believe you can do so! Don't let Mr. Xie down, let alone let his efforts be in vain. Now that his wife is still in the kitchen, we should find a way now
Mother-in-law, take your Xuantian Sect back and let her live a good life."
"Mr. Xie's grandson has had an accident, and now only my mother-in-law is left as a relative worth worrying about. So, Zhou Tian, you put away your sorrow now and don't let your mother-in-law know about Mr. Xie."
After Su Xinghe said so much, Zhou Tian couldn't listen to anything at first, but he thought about it again, slowly let go of his hand, looked into Su Xinghe's eyes, and nodded: "Okay, since mother-in-law is still here,
If you are alive, take good care of it."
Immediately, he looked at Xie Pingzhi who was lying on the bed behind him, and said to Ye Rou and Su Xinghe: "Mr. Xie's body should be buried in this yard. Try not to let my mother-in-law know about it."
After hearing this, Su Xinghe turned his head and looked at Ye Rou: "Ye Rou, I have to trouble you to ask my mother-in-law not to leave the kitchen yet. Zhou Tian and I will handle it as soon as possible."
Ye Rou didn't say anything, just nodded and walked out of the room.
After seeing Ye Rou leave, Su Xinghe asked: "Zhou Tian, how do you feel now? What's different in your body?"
Zhou Tian thought for a while, wiped his tears to regain his mood, closed his eyes and felt something: "There is nothing wrong. I don't know how my body is now. I can only feel it slightly. My body is full of energy again.
But whether it will recover or not, we still have to go back to Xuantian Sect and see."
Su Xinghe grabbed Zhou Tian's shoulder with force and said with a wry smile: "As long as you are fine, then you will live up to Mr. Xie. Let's go! Put him to rest quickly!"
Afterwards, the two men carried Xie Pingzhi's body to the yard. After taking about an hour to dispose of it, Zhou Tian sadly sat on the mound above and sighed.
"I really didn't expect that Mr. Xie would lose his life just to let me recover..."
After the two paid their respects, they regained their mood and went to the kitchen. Seeing that her mother-in-law was still taking care of Bai Ling'er very carefully, Zhou Tian felt so guilty that he didn't know how to talk about it.
At this time, Su Xinghe forced a smile and said: "Mother-in-law, after Mr. Xie just cured Zhou Tian, he said that he had to leave beforehand if there was an emergency. He said that he would meet up with your grandson at Xuantian Sect."
After hearing this, the mother-in-law stepped forward awkwardly and asked: "What? That old man left first again? It's true, after decades of working with him, the problem still hasn't changed, okay, then let him go first.
When shall we leave?”
"Mother-in-law, Mr. Xie spent a lot of energy to save me. Thank you for your hard work. Let's set off after Bai Ling'er wakes up!"
The mother-in-law believed Zhou Tian's explanation. She nodded one after another and looked at Bai Ling'er who was lying next to the stove pit and said, "This girl's whole body was cold just now. Fortunately, she recovered next to the stove pit. She should wake up soon!"
"You guys should go inside and rest first, I'll take care of it here."
Ye Rou noticed that her mother-in-law's mentality had changed slightly. She didn't know where the change had taken place. She looked at Su Xinghe beside her and asked, "My mother-in-law was still worried about Mr. Xie's physical condition just now. Why did Zhou Tian say so few words?"
Has she changed? And she still believes in Zhou Tian’s words so much?”
After hearing this, Su Xinghe also expressed doubts, thought for a while and shook his head.
Cough cough cough!
Suddenly a slight coughing sound reached their ears.
The mother-in-law looked back and said with a smile: "This girl is awake, awake!"
Zhou Tian also heard her coughing, squatted down, looked at Bai Ling'er's big eyes and asked quietly: "Ling'er, are you awake? How do you feel?"
Bai Ling'er narrowed her eyes slightly, looked carefully, and then raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "It turns out to be Zhou Tian, have they found you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she frowned again.
"But why does my head feel so painful?"
Ye Rou saw that Bai Ling'er's tone of voice and body movements seemed to be nothing serious, so she hurriedly said to Su Xinghe: "Is it time to go?"
"Yes, Zhou Tian, is it time to go?" Su Xinghe asked Zhou Tian directly.
Zhou Tian nodded and said to Bai Ling'er: "You have just woken up. It is inevitable to have a headache and discomfort. Can you still hold on?"
Although Bai Ling'er was completely weak, she still managed to stand up.
"What are you insisting on? Are there people from Haotian Pavilion here?" Hearing Zhou Tian's question, Bai Ling'er suddenly became nervous, and her face suddenly became very dark.
Seeing her nervous look, Ye Rou took her cold little hand and smiled: "What are you thinking about? Zhou Tian wants a few of us to follow him back to Xuantian Sect. Su Xinghe also agreed, and I'm waiting for you now.
Got it!"
After hearing this, Bai Ling'er smiled at them: "Hey, I thought it was some big deal, so let's go. This time you come to Zhou Tian, don't you just want to see how he is doing recently? My
Your health is okay, but if we talk about fighting, it might hurt you!"
Su Xinghe saw Bai Ling'er becoming naughty again, and felt a lot of comfort in her heart."
When her mother-in-law saw Bai Ling'er jumping around lively, she also laughed: "Haha, I think if my grandson hadn't gone out to enlist in the army, he would be a good match for this girl, haha!"
When Zhou Tian heard his mother-in-law say this, he couldn't help laughing. Su Xinghe and Ye Rou also laughed.
Bai Ling'er looked at her mother-in-law behind her in surprise, and asked inexplicably: "Who is this?"
Just when her mother-in-law was about to tell her, Ye Rou hurriedly pulled her out.
Coming outside the kitchen, Bai Ling'er looked at her in surprise: "Sister Ye Rou, what's wrong? Why do you guys feel so weird all of a sudden? Is there something happening that I don't know about?"
Ye Rou nodded, and spoke very quickly and briefly told her what happened these days.
The mother-in-law in the kitchen looked at Su Xinghe and Zhou Tian and smiled awkwardly: "What have these two girls been doing after being out for so long?"
Zhou Tian and Su Xinghe just smiled silently one after another and did not answer anything.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Rou and Bai Ling'er walked in hand in hand. Bai Ling'er stared at her mother-in-law and said, "Haha, mother-in-law, sister Ye Rou just told me about your grandson. If he doesn't
If you mind, I will consider it."
When Su Xinghe heard this answer, he looked at Ye Rou in surprise and asked in a very slight voice: "Ye Rou, did you tell him everything?"
Ye Rou nodded and smiled.
On the other hand, the mother-in-law was overjoyed when she heard Bai Ling'er's answer. She hurriedly turned to Zhou Tian and said, "Then leave here quickly. The old man has been gone for a long time, so he must arrive before him!"
Zhou Tian nodded happily and took out Bai Feng from his arms.
"Mother-in-law, I will see that this ruler gradually gets bigger and wider later. If you feel uncomfortable standing on it, you must communicate with Bai Ling'er and the others in time!"
The mother-in-law nodded slightly, and then they slowly stepped on the white phoenix. A strong wind blew by, and they disappeared into the layers of clouds.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived above Xuantian Sect.
Since it was Zhou Tian's request, Ouyang Canglin did not dare not to implement it, so Xuantian Sect now has a team of sect guard disciples.
These disciples had already discovered their traces before Zhou Tian and others landed on the ground.
"Who is coming!"
Since the distance to the ground was quite high, the disciples did not see clearly who was floating in the sky. Zhou Tian didn't care, he directly landed forcefully and walked in front of the disciples.
Looking at the expressionless Zhou Tian, they were frightened to death for a moment. They hurriedly knelt down on one knee and put their hands on each other: "See the sect master!"
Zhou Tian asked them to stand up very seriously and said to them: "Xuantian Sect needs you disciples to guard you. You continue. After I and a few friends go in, don't talk nonsense everywhere."
After hearing this, the disciples stood up, straightened their waists, and responded in unison: "Please rest assured, Master!"
When Su Xinghe, who was following Zhou Tian, saw this scene, he smiled: "I said Zhou Tian, you are really amazing. You have been out of the academy for so long, and you actually have your own sect, and the disciples of the sect are very interested in you."
It’s not easy for you to respect me so much!”
Zhou Tian didn't know whether he was praising him or mocking him. Just as he was about to respond, he saw those disciples suddenly stepped forward and stopped Su Xinghe and the people behind him.
"Who is here? How dare you speak such arrogant words!"
Seeing this, Su Xinghe looked at Zhou Tian dumbfounded, opened his arms and said jokingly: "What? Third brother, do you want me to help you try their skills and cultivation?"
Zhou Tian lowered his head helplessly and shook his head. At this moment, a person walked from the sect with fast steps.
"What are you doing? It's so noisy. I already told you that if there is any urgent matter, please don't handle it on your own..."
As he was about to speak, he glanced around and saw Zhou Tian.
