C253 A New Crisis
"Do you know something?" Ling Yunfan suddenly asked as they were walking slowly in the dark, following the slightly serious Qiu Yimin.
Hearing his question, Qiu Yi Min's expression became serious, and she asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"
Facing her rhetorical question, Ling Yun Fan did not reply, but just expressionlessly looked at her with his usual cold gaze.
In fact, Qiu Yimin knew what he was asking. It was just that as his sister, she was reluctant to admit that her brother would actually kill her so viciously.
However, looking at the situation in front of her, she really couldn't continue hiding it. Otherwise, the relationship that she had just established might completely break down because of it. They wouldn't become enemies, but at least the two of them would become strangers.
This kind of result wasn't what she wanted, so no matter how displeased she was, she could only honestly reply, "The reason why these monsters and spirit bodies that should have been hiding in the Calamity Plains and cultivating in seclusion suddenly appeared and hunted you down was because of someone's instructions. And the one who was behind this is most likely my little brother, Qiu Hao."
"Your brother, Qiu Hao …" Hearing this, Ling Yun Fan pondered for a moment, then retreated a few steps as if he was frightened, before looking at the other party with a strange expression and saying: "In that case, you and Qiu Hao are partners as well. Just who are you people?
With that, Ling Yunfan pulled out the Flying Rain-Dragon Sword and pointed it at the nearby Qiu Yimin.
If it was anyone else, Qiu Yimin would not be able to suppress the anger in her heart and directly kill this Half-step Martial God Stage brat in front of her with a single palm. Unfortunately, this person was not a stranger, but was a person who could cause her heart, which had been sealed for more than ten years, to feel love for him.
Being treated in such a manner, Qiu Yimin's heart was not angry at all, but more disappointed. She had never thought that she would sincerely treat him these past few days and even help him a lot, but now, because of a single matter, she became like an enemy that was about to become, how could she not feel heartache?
Although Qiu Yimin had stayed in the Bloody Desert for more than ten years, she had never come into contact with any kind of relationship. Now that she had just come into contact with such a situation, how could she maintain her calm like before?
"You … Are you suspecting me? All along the way, I've helped you so much. Don't you believe me at all? " After taking a deep breath, Qiu Yimin asked with a slightly trembling, hurt voice.
Looking at her injured appearance and the tone in which she spoke, Ling Yunfan's heart began to waver a little. It was as though he was asking if he was being a little too excited to do such a thing.
"I do indeed have a reason to stay by your side. However, it is definitely not to your disadvantage or because I want to take something from you. I can only say that I merely want to stay by your side." Seeing this, Qiu Yiming explained with reddened eyes.
After hearing what she said, the originally somewhat unfamiliar and hostile Lingyun instantly changed his expression. The cold and unfeeling expression from before disappeared without a trace, replaced with a slightly smiling and amiable expression.
Soon after, he kept his sword and went over to Qiu Yi Min, saying: "I am truly sorry, I did this on purpose just now. I only wanted to know your identity, but it was difficult to say who you were so I came up with this plan. I hope young lady does not blame me for this."
However, Qiu Yimin did not care about his polite words. She was still in a daze as if her heart had been hurt. If it were not for the fact that her chest was heaving up and down, people would have thought she was dead.
"My apologies, but if you are unable to forgive me, then there is no other way. I will take the rest of the journey myself, you can go back and cultivate properly. If fate wills it, we will meet again in the future."
Seeing that, Ling Yunfan lost his patience. He left behind a few words, then turned around and left.
This free and easy turn did not seem to hold back the beauty behind him at all.
"You bastard!"
Before long, Qiu Yimin's voice came from behind.
Having said so, Qiu Yi Min came before him once again. She looked at him with resentment in her eyes, thinking to herself, This fellow can't comfort me, he's always so cold and heartless. I don't know if he owes me some debt from my previous life …
"You want to trick me with that little trick of yours? You're still twenty thousand years early. " Seeing Qiu Yi Min being humiliated by him, Lingyun laughed arrogantly.
"Swish."
"Danger!"
Seeing Lingyun's unpleasant smile, just as Qiu Min was about to say something, she suddenly sensed an extremely dangerous aura coming from behind her. When she turned around, she discovered that a dark blue lightning arrow was flying straight at Lingyun.
"Puchi …"
Suddenly being pushed away like that, Ling Yun Fan, who had just stabilized his body, looked as if he was about to say something. He was stunned to discover that Qiu Yi Min, who was wearing a light red dress, did not have any defensive measures as she was struck by the blue colored lightning arrow that came out of nowhere and was blown out of the array by the terrifying lightning power.
The power of this attack was extraordinarily great. It should have belonged to a Transcending Mortality Stage expert. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to injure Qiu Yimin so badly with a single blow and almost knock her out.
"Qiu Yimin!"2
Seeing this scene unfold, Ling Yunfan was no longer in a daze. He immediately transformed into a gust of wind and flew to the side of the youth, catching him in his arms from mid-air.
Looking at the dying Qiu Yimin, Lingyun quickly infused his spiritual energy into her body in the gentlest way possible, and then continued to call out to her: "Qiu Yimin, wake up, how are you?"
"I'm sorry, I can't help you with the current situation. Forgive me." Qiu Yimin, who was in Lingyun's embrace, forced her eyes open and apologized. Her eyes slowly closed as she fainted.
