"Cough, cough."

Qin Yue went limp in Su Jian's arms. A trace of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, trickling down and soaking into his sleeve.

The vitality in her body was fading at a visible rate.

"Senior Sister..." Su Jian called softly.

Feeling the life ebbing from the person in his arms, his eyes reddened.

Because of his childhood experiences, he was actually a particularly awkward person.

When he saw a stranger in distress, he felt compassion, yet in everyday life he kept others at a distance.

Especially someone like Qin Yue, who had approached him with an ulterior motive.

Perhaps some of Qin Yue's actions had moved him, but after that feeling passed, he would instinctively push her away, resisting her kindness toward him.

If that night had never happened, he never would have given Qin Yue two intact Qi Condensation Pills.

But there were no ifs in this world.

After that night, Qin Yue had indeed become different in his heart.

At this moment, Su Jian suddenly remembered that night.

Afterward, as they lay in each other's arms, he had asked Qin Yue:

Knowing how hard the road of cultivation would be without a Dharma Weapon, why had she chosen to walk it in the first place?

And if she fell along that path someday, would she regret it?

Qin Yue had only answered his second question. She had said...

"Junior Brother, I don't regret it."

Her hoarse voice came from his arms, interrupting his thoughts and making his heart tighten.

Qin Yue gave him the same answer once more.

Her once-clear eyes were now choked with tears, and the whites were webbed with blood vessels.

There was unwillingness, regret, and longing...

But there was no regret!

Within the Time Branch.
