Calm Zhong Shan

Tian Ling'er watched this scene in horror. How could this happen? How could this happen?

Zhong Shan didn't want to die, he really didn't want to die. He had finally managed to cultivate, was he going to die here? However, the rocks above were shaking, as if in just a little while longer, the two of them would fall together.

"Ling'er, you use Red Silk to fly up, then hit me towards the surrounding mountain walls. I'll use the Great Saber to stab into the mountain," Zhong Shan quickly reacted, saying.

"I can't, Red Silk is broken, they broke it, it can't carry me anymore," Tian Ling'er said anxiously.

Hearing Tian Ling'er's words, Zhong Shan's heart tightened. What should I do?

"Zhong Shan, I won't leave you, but I can't hold on much longer. It's just, I won't be able to see Senior Brother again," Tian Ling'er said with a sorrowful expression.

Hearing Tian Ling'er's words, Zhong Shan was filled with emotion. Looking at Tian Ling'er, he said, "If we get rescued, I'll take you to find Senior Brother."

As he finished speaking, the rocks above suddenly loosened. The rocks, Tian Ling'er, and Zhong Shan all fell towards the bottom of the mountain.

"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Tian Ling'er screamed in terror. Along with Zhong Shan, they rapidly fell towards the deep Mountain Valley below.

There's no way to borrow strength, are we just going to fall to our deaths? Zhong Shan believed that falling from this high, this high, they were definitely dead. It was a critical moment, perhaps in the next instant, they would be smashed into a pulp, completely dead.

However, the more critical the situation, the calmer Zhong Shan became. At this moment, although his body was falling rapidly, in Zhong Shan's eyes, it was as if the whole world had stopped. His brain was spinning rapidly.

Two breaths, in just two breaths of time, Zhong Shan thought of a difficult countermeasure.

He grabbed the Red Silk at his waist with his right hand and pulled. Tian Ling'er above was pulled down and quickly fell into Zhong Shan's embrace.

"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Tian Ling'er's eyes were tightly shut. As she fell into Zhong Shan's embrace, she was still screaming. When she confirmed it was Zhong Shan, she hugged him even tighter with both hands, as if he was her last straw.

Zhong Shan had no time to care about Tian Ling'er in his arms. In this moment of extreme urgency, he grabbed the Red Silk and pulled again. The large rock falling with them from above also moved closer to Zhong Shan.

He hugged Tian Ling'er tightly. Zhong Shan used the power of the Red Silk to flip over and half-crouch on the large rock.

His body kept changing positions. Tian Ling'er also became much more clear-headed. Seeing herself being held in Zhong Shan's arms, and his body changing shape at this last moment, Tian Ling'er didn't know what she was thinking.

"Let go of Red Silk," Zhong Shan said.

By reflex, Tian Ling'er quickly controlled Red Silk to withdraw its force, releasing the binding on the giant rock.

Below, it was not far now, they could already see the bottom.

Their falling speed had also reached a terrifying level.

"Roar~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Holding Tian Ling'er tightly, Zhong Shan roared. With his half-crouched body, he suddenly straightened up and leaped fiercely upwards.

"Whoosh~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

The speed of the large rock suddenly increased fivefold, like a cannonball, rapidly shooting into the ground. However, Zhong Shan, holding Tian Ling'er, had his falling speed slowed down significantly.

One slowdown was not enough. Now, the two of them were still crashing downwards at an incredibly frantic speed.

The success of the first attempt turned Tian Ling'er's previous terror into a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of absolute trust in Zhong Shan. With Zhong Shan, they would definitely be fine, definitely be fine!

The two of them were still falling rapidly downwards.

Zhong Shan flipped his hand and took out his Great Saber.

"Hold on tight to me."

Zhong Shan called out to Tian Ling'er.

Tian Ling'er quickly hugged Zhong Shan, holding on for dear life.

Zhong Shan once again used all his strength, throwing the Great Saber downwards with all his might.

"Roar~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

The Great Saber shot downwards rapidly, and the speed of their descent slowed down again.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

The sounds of the large rock and the Great Saber hitting the ground came from below.

At this moment, looking at the remaining distance, Zhong Shan was certain that after falling this distance, the two of them would at most be severely injured, but they wouldn't die.

Not dying was enough.

However, the moment he threw the Great Saber, Zhong Shan's body unconsciously tilted forward. This caused Tian Ling'er to be below and himself above.

Looking at Tian Ling'er, Zhong Shan resolutely hugged her tightly and made a strenuous effort to flip over, switching their positions so that Zhong Shan was below and Tian Ling'er was above.

The moment her body turned to be on top, pressing against Zhong Shan's chest, Tian Ling'er also felt it and understood the meaning of Zhong Shan's final action. Suddenly, Tian Ling'er's eyes filled with tears. She hugged Zhong Shan even tighter.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

With a loud crash, Zhong Shan landed on his back, kicking up a large cloud of dust from the ground.

The immense impact, even though Zhong Shan practiced the Heavenly Devil Body Tempering Great Technique, caused his internal organs to churn at this moment. Very directly, he and Tian Ling'er in his arms fell unconscious.

An hour later.

In the quiet Mountain Valley, Zhong Shan was the first to wake up. He didn't wake up because he had recovered, but because the time limit for the Heavenly Devil Body Tempering Great Technique had expired, and the soreness throughout his body was so intense that it woke him up.

The moment he woke up, Zhong Shan suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha!"

Not dead, not dead! Hahaha.

Even though Zhong Shan's entire body was in pain, his heart was incomparably relieved. He wasn't dead, he wasn't dead.

After laughing with relief, Zhong Shan felt that his entire body was aching intensely, to the extreme. It felt as if all his bones had shattered.

After resting for a while, Zhong Shan felt the pain had lessened considerably. Looking at Tian Ling'er in his arms, there were actually two tear streaks on her face.

Cried from fright? A warm smile appeared on Zhong Shan's face. Little did he know, Tian Ling'er's tears were from being moved by Zhong Shan's final action before landing.

"Ling'er, Ling'er!" Zhong Shan called out.

Gently, Tian Ling'er seemed to be shaken awake. Her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

The moment she opened her eyes, she happened to see herself lying in Zhong Shan's arms. Her face suddenly turned red, and she quickly scrambled up.

"Ouch!"

Just as she stood firm, Tian Ling'er suddenly went limp, falling back into Zhong Shan's arms, who had just gotten up.

Holding Tian Ling'er in his arms, he happened to see the spot on her calf where Liu Ming's sword had cut her, leaving it bloody.

With a pained expression, he gently helped Tian Ling'er lean against a large rock. He carefully tore open Tian Ling'er's pant leg, revealing a snow-white, crystal-clear jade leg.

Seeing her pant leg torn, Tian Ling'er's face flushed again, but knowing that Zhong Shan was checking her injury, she bit her lip and didn't say anything.

Gently, he sat in front of Tian Ling'er, placing her injured leg on his thigh, and carefully examined her wound.

"Water pouch," Zhong Shan said.

"Water pouch?" Tian Ling'er's face was red, her mind a little muddled, not understanding what Zhong Shan was saying.

"The one I put in your storage bracelet last time," Zhong Shan said with a frown.

"Oh, oh," Tian Ling'er immediately took out a water pouch.

Gently, using the torn pant leg, he took water and carefully wiped Tian Ling'er's calf. His movements were very cautious, but at this moment, Tian Ling'er's heart was pounding wildly. She didn't know why, but her whole body was tense, her face flushed, even her neck was a rosy pink. Tian Ling'er felt as if Zhong Shan's hands were like hot irons, resting on her leg, the heat seemingly transferring from her leg all the way to her heart. Although she knew Zhong Shan was cleaning the wound, Tian Ling'er didn't know why she felt so nervous right now.

"Wine," Zhong Shan said to Tian Ling'er.

"Oh," Tian Ling'er, like a puppet, immediately took out a jar of wine.

Zhong Shan poured the wine onto Tian Ling'er's flawless white jade calf to sterilize it!

"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

With a sharp pain, Tian Ling'er immediately snapped out of the slight daze she had been in.

"White cloth," Zhong Shan said again.

Tian Ling'er immediately took it out. Zhong Shan gently wrapped Tian Ling'er's calf.

Tian Ling'er watched this series of actions, and her heart felt like a little deer constantly bumping around. She didn't even know what she was thinking.

Gently releasing Tian Ling'er's leg, Zhong Shan said, "Adjust your breathing and recover some strength as quickly as possible."

"Okay," Tian Ling'er nodded.

Then, Tian Ling'er quickly sat cross-legged and remained there for an hour. After an hour, she slowly woke up.

"Are you ready?" Zhong Shan asked, looking at Tian Ling'er.

"Yes, much better," Tian Ling'er nodded.

"Now it's your turn to protect me. I'll adjust my breathing for a while," Zhong Shan said.

Hearing what Zhong Shan said, Tian Ling'er's nose suddenly felt sore. But, she still held back her tears and nodded.

Receiving Tian Ling'er's promise, Zhong Shan quickly closed his eyes to adjust his breathing. His own injuries were too severe.

Looking at Zhong Shan, who was adjusting his breathing with his eyes closed, Tian Ling'er's tears could no longer be held back.

It was all her fault for not listening to Zhong Shan. Otherwise, things wouldn't have turned out this way. Zhong Shan used himself as a cushion, so he must be even more seriously injured than her. After waking up, he didn't adjust his breathing but instead took care of her, and finally, he protected her before adjusting his breathing and recovering from his injuries.

For the first time, Tian Ling'er felt how willful she was. It was all because of her willfulness that this happened.
