At this moment, cracks suddenly appeared in the true energy shield in the sky, faintly reaching the critical point. With a bang, it suddenly exploded, and a broken palm finger was seen forcibly broken through it. This palm finger was broken so badly that only one finger remained.
Still bursting forth from this terrifying power, it pointed a finger at Li Changfeng's head. At this moment, Li Changfeng was powerless to deal with it. His injuries made him unable to move, and he could only watch helplessly as the broken palm finger came at him.
Li Changfeng closed his eyes and breathed, without a trace of regret in his heart. As a man who stands tall and upright, he had to face these things and take responsibility!
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo desperately broke free from Jingling Shitai's restraints and rushed towards Li Changfeng. If Li Changfeng died, she wouldn't live either. "Brother Feng! I'll come and join you!"
At this moment, the figure hidden in the shadows saw this and cold sweat slowly dripped down his forehead. He was about to make a move to save him, but the Emei Sect Leader's eyes were fixed on the person in the shadows. However, he did not make a move!
The man in the shadows hesitated. He had made an agreement with the Emei Sect Leader, and he had fought for those three blows. If he broke the agreement, it would be null and void, and Li Changfeng would not be able to take Zhou Zhiruo away. This might be the reason why he became enemies with Li Changfeng!
Li Changfeng was willing to risk his life for this matter, which showed that there was no turning back. In that instant, the person in the shadows had already figured things out clearly, but he held his breath and did not make a move, thinking that such a person with great fortune must have some means of protecting his life!
However, Li Changfeng was truly at his wit's end and could only wait to die. The Emei Sect Leader was slightly surprised to see this, not expecting that the person he had hidden could remain calm. Just as the attack was about to shatter Li Changfeng's head.
The Emei sect leader sighed, and with a gentle flick of his hand, the broken palm and fingers disintegrated into a purple aura that vanished into the air. This action immediately startled everyone present.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo burst into tears of joy and rushed towards Li Changfeng, throwing herself into his arms. This startled Li Changfeng, who stared at the Emei Sect Leader in astonishment. How could that final attack have suddenly disappeared?
The Emei sect leader sighed and slowly said, "Congratulations! You've passed!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng froze, "This... you passed the test already! How did this happen?!"
Upon hearing this, the Emei Sect Leader said calmly, "Each of our sect leaders has passed down a rule: if any disciple wants to be with her lover, she must undergo a test, which is to be willing to die for her!"
"There are very few people in this world who can do such a thing. You are indeed someone I can entrust my life to. We, the Emei Sect, are not heartless people. Since you have done it, take her away. She... will no longer be a member of the Emei Sect!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo couldn't stop the tears from flowing from her eyes. She immediately kowtowed three times to the Emei Sect Leader, saying, "This unfilial disciple, Zhou Zhiruo, has failed the teachings of my sect and is truly unworthy to cultivate Emei martial arts. I hereby abolish my own cultivation!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Zhou Zhiruo struck, abruptly pressing several vital acupoints on her body. The True Qi Seed within her body shattered instantly, her meridians broke, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood. In a moment, all her cultivation vanished.
Seeing this, Li Changfeng quickly caught Zhou Zhiruo, who was about to collapse, and said with heartache, "Zhiruo! How could you be so foolish! How are you feeling? Let me heal you!"
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo quickly stepped back from Li Changfeng, "Brother Feng! Your injuries are so serious, don't bother healing me, I'm fine!"
Seeing this, the Emei Sect Leader sighed, "Zhiruo! Why are you doing this to yourself! Among all these disciples, you are the one I have the highest hopes for. It's just a pity that you've met someone you can entrust your life to. I understand your predicament, you don't need to do this!"
Zhou Zhiruo shook her head upon hearing this, "I grew up in Emei, this is my home. Although I have my reasons this time, I cannot break the rules of Emei. The fact that I have abolished my cultivation is already the greatest understanding you can give me!"
The Emei sect leader, upon hearing this, looked relieved but with deep reluctance in her eyes. She slowly turned around and said, "You... go! Leave Emei! This place no longer belongs to you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo pursed her lips, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. She didn't even feel her lips being bitten. Feeling extremely reluctant to leave this place, she kowtowed three more times, stood up with Li Changfeng's help, and slowly left the Emei Sect!
Not long after they left, a figure slowly emerged. Upon seeing this, the Emei Sect Leader calmly said, "Is the alliance between you and me now complete?"
The figure was none other than Yao Xuanzi, the Medicine God Valley. He smiled broadly and said, "Of course! Even without this agreement, I would still like to form an alliance with you!"
The Emei sect leader sneered upon hearing this, "If that's the case, then why make the agreement of three blows?"
Yao Xuanzi chuckled upon hearing this, but did not answer his question directly. "That boy is seriously injured. If he leaves rashly now, I fear he may be in danger, so I will take my leave for now!"
Upon hearing this, the Emei sect leader said indifferently, "Take care! I won't see you out!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Xuanzi cupped his hands in greeting and then transformed into a streak of light, disappearing without a trace.
Upon seeing this, the Emei Sect Leader narrowed his eyes slightly. "Yao Xuanzi! Are you using Li Changfeng as a bargaining chip in your confrontation with the Imperial Court? What a brilliant move!"
At this moment, Li Changfeng and Zhou Zhiruo slowly left the Emei Sect. They were seen supporting each other as they walked slowly. Li Changfeng suppressed the blood in his throat, but after leaving Emei, he could no longer hold back and vomited.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo asked with a worried expression, "Brother Feng! Are you alright?"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng shook his head. "I didn't expect that! We need to find a safe place quickly. I'm seriously injured right now, and the world is dangerous. If something happens to me, it will be a real problem!"
Zhou Zhiruo obeyed with a solemn expression and helped Li Changfeng walk towards a dense forest. Just then, Li Changfeng's expression suddenly changed. He forced himself to remain calm and said in a deep voice to the left, "Whoever is hiding there, get out here! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo's expression immediately changed. With a solemn look, she followed behind Li Changfeng, gripping her longsword and poised to unleash her power in preparation for the impending battle!
"Hehe! You're quite perceptive, kid! You actually noticed!"
A figure in white slowly emerged from behind the large tree. Li Changfeng was slightly taken aback upon seeing this person, "Yao Xuanzi! What are you doing here!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo's expression turned very serious. She transmitted her voice, "Brother Feng! You leave now, and I'll come back to find you after I stop him!"
Li Changfeng chuckled upon hearing this, "It's alright! Zhiruo! He's one of us!"
