Chapter 11 - Performing CPR

Xiao Tian flew next to Ye Anping, looked at the burned corpse on the ground, and recognized the scent of the demonic cultivator that had attacked Feng Yu Die.

After that, she looked at Pei Lianxue, who was meditating, and at Ye Anping, who was still tidying up his bag.

Two small cultivators in the Qi Refining stage... one mid-to-high-grade demonic cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage...

The two small cultivators suffered no injuries at all, while the high-grade cultivator was reduced to a pile of charcoal.

How was this possible?! Could it be that the cultivator who cast the spell had already left, and these two happened to pass by?

Xiao Tian would rather believe that because it couldn't be possible for these two youths to kill the demonic cultivator of the Magical Poison Sect. Not to mention the difference in their levels; the duo's abilities were completely inferior to even Feng Yu Die's.

After all, they were only from the third rank Hundred Lotus Sect, so how could they have skills or magical weapons powerful enough to kill that demonic cultivator?!

---No, stop! Now is not the time to question this matter. Yu Die is still waiting for someone to save her!

Without even thinking about it, she ran to Pei Lianxue and pulled her hair.

"Girl! Hey, girl!"

However, Pei Lianxue, who was meditating, only felt a light wind blowing past her ears and suddenly shivered, looking around in confusion.

All she felt was a gust of wind blowing in her face, yet, the sensation was eerie and unnerving.

"Brother, something doesn't feel right."

Ye Anping glanced at the little thing tugging at his sister's hair with mixed feelings.

This little one was not very smart, was she?

"What's wrong?" Ye Anping replied, feigning puzzlement.

"Something just doesn't feel right. I feel uneasy." Pei Lianxue frowned and gripped the sword again, on high alert to her surroundings. "Brother, do you think that demonic cultivator could still be alive?"

"He's totally dead."

"But I still feel... like there's something next to me..."

Xiao Tian nodded quickly and shouted anxiously, "Yes! I'm near you! Realize it quickly!! God, please, let her see me! Just for a moment, is fine!!"

"Really, don't worry." Although he heard the little thing's cry, Ye Anping's expression remained unperturbed, and he simply ignored it. "Come on, let's go back to town. It's about time to return to the Hundred Lotus

Remembering this, Pei Lianxue pulled her head between her shoulders in fright, "Yes, after we snuck out, the Patriarch and the others must have been very worried. We will definitely be punished when we return."

"Don't worry." Ye Anping shrugged and took out Wu You's jade tablet. "When you show him this demonic cultivator's token, not only will he not reprimand you, but he might even reward you."

"But before we left, I was just lectured by your mother."

"Huh?"

"Your mother will surely beat me this time."

"My mother spoils me a lot, so I'll cover for you when the time comes. Well, let's go back."

"Okay."

Ye Anping nodded, shook his shoulders, and with a small earth spell, made the corpse blend back into nature, then started to walk toward the town.

Pei Lianxue hesitated shortly, then stepped forward and took his hand directly.

"Eh? What's the matter?"

"Well..." Pei Lianxue lowered her head shyly. "Let's go, okay?"

"Don't go! Don't go!"

Seeing her like this, Ye Anping smiled helplessly. "You complained just now that I treat you like a child when you are already fourteen, but you still need to hold your big brother's hand?"

Pei Lianxue bulged her cheeks. "Just hold my hand."

"Don't go!" This time, Xiao Tian pulled Ye Anping's hair with all her might.

Ye Anping ignored her and replied. "Alright, let's hold hands. When we were children, I also led you like this through the compound every day."

"Well, hehe..."

The two slowly walked toward the town step by step like this while Xiao Tian continued to yell behind them, trying to make them aware of her existence.

"Save Yu Die!! Why! Why can't you see me?!"

"Wooooo--- Why is it so hard to find someone who can talk to me..."

Listening to this little guy crying herself hoarse in his ear, Ye Anping closed his eyes, exhaled softly, and stopped.

"Eh?" Pei Lianxue turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Didn't a golden dragon appear just now?"

"Yes, why?"

"Let's go and have a look, we might not get another chance."

"...Hmm."

Hearing Ye Anping's words, Xiao Tian's tears-swollen eyes lit up, and as she raised her head to look at him, their gazes met.

When they were at the inn, he felt this man looking at him a few times. He thought it was just a coincidence, but now...

"Hey, you! Can you see me?!"

"...Sister, where is your flying sword?"

"I'm tired, brother. You hold me and fly."

"Hey, kid! Can't you see me?"

Still ignoring him, Ye Anping sighed softly. "How old are you? I really don't know what to do with you."

"I'm tired. Hug me."

Ye Anping shook his head, then put his arm around Pei Lianxue's waist, brought her on his flying sword, and hurried toward the bamboo forest where Feng Yu Die was.

Because it was not far away, the flying sword landed almost as soon as it took off. Although Ye Anping had expected Feng Yu Die's miserable state, when he actually saw her situation, he frowned deeply.

Her face was no different from that of a corpse, with sunken eyes, dark spots on her skin, and her mouth and chest stained with black and red blood.

Ye Anping quickly probed her with his spiritual sense and saw that her heartbeat had stopped.Yur favorite ovels at n/(v)el/bin(.)com

"What??"

He quickly jumped off the flying sword, ran to Feng Yu Die, and knelt down to check her pulse with his fingers.

The conclusion of the spiritual check-up was not wrong. Although Feng Yu Die's energy and soul were still there, her heartbeat had stopped, which was why she looked like a corpse.

A few more minutes and her primordial soul would have completely dissipated. Ye Anping looked around and frowned when he found that no one had come to save her.

Could it be that the plot had changed?

Was it because they killed Wu You? Or did his and Pei Lianxue's practice produce a 'butterfly effect' that overturned the plot as he knew it?

"Isn't this girl the one we met at the inn before...?"

"Yes." Ye Anping nodded. "Bring the blood coagulation pill."

Pei Lianxue hurriedly took out a pill from her storage bag, but looking at Feng Yu Die lying on the ground, she said in bewilderment. "Brother, she can't take it like that."

"I'm going to chew it for her, spit it into her mouth, and then perform CPR." Saying that, Ye Anping put the blood coagulation pill into his mouth, chewed it, then pinched Feng Yu Die's lips, and lowered his head.

Seeing his actions, Pei Lianxue took a deep breath, stepped forward, and pulled him back.

"Brother!!"

"What's wrong?"

"I... I'll do it."

Ye Anping blinked blankly, nodded, and stepped aside before reminding her, "2 breaths, 30 compressions. Same as I taught you before, but don't press with the same force you applied then. When I taught you, we used a pig, and if you press like that, you'll break her ribs. Be gentle."

Pei Lianxue took a deep breath, chewed on another blood coagulation pill, then crouched down and opened Feng Yu Die's mouth.

"Bah---"

Ye Anping: "?"
