Zhu Zhuqing's words stirred a surge of emotion within Qi Ling. Was this girl really so capable? That was going too far!
"You silly girl, just give it a rest. You're so badly injured, and you're still not behaving yourself." Qi Ling suppressed her impulse and said, "Rest well and stop doing all that nonsense!"
Afterwards, Qi Ling continued to use her own blood to heal Zhu Zhuqing's wounds, but whether it was intentional or not, after the girl woke up, she would make faint moaning sounds whenever her hand touched her body.
After finally managing to heal all of Zhu Zhuqing's wounds with great perseverance, Qi Ling felt dizzy and lightheaded. This feeling, which made it difficult to distinguish between ischemia and congestion, was extremely uncomfortable.
Qi Ling's blood took effect very quickly; almost instantly after being applied, Zhu Zhuqing's wounds healed completely under the powerful life force, leaving no trace.
However, to ensure the best results, Qi Ling decided to wait a while before wiping away the bloodstains for Zhu Zhuqing.
"Are you cold, Zhu Zhuqing?" Qi Ling couldn't help but ask. Although Zhu Zhuqing's physical condition shouldn't be so bad that she would get cold, she was still injured, and Qi Ling was still a little worried.
"I'm not cold, I actually feel very hot," Zhu Zhuqing said with a smile. " Qi Ling, I feel like my entire body is filled with your presence."
"Hey, you little brat, don't say such scary things! That's my blood!" Qi Ling said helplessly. "Alright, it's about time. If we don't get out soon, who knows what those guys outside will think."
So, Qi Ling used hot water and a wet towel to help Zhu Zhuqing wipe away the bloodstains on her body, then helped her put on her clothes before leaving the room.
Zhu Zhuqing clutched the edge of the blanket with both hands, her face flushed red, but at the same time she was also complaining, "Is this guy a blockhead?"
When Qi Ling stepped out of the room, she was immediately startled by the scene outside. There were about a dozen people standing densely packed together, including Grandmaster and Flender, who were peering through the window, trying to see what was happening inside.
But with the Xuanyuan Sword Realm present, they naturally couldn't see anything. When they saw Qi Ling come out, they hurriedly stood up straight, looking like they had done something wrong.
"What are you doing?" Qi Ling said, both amused and exasperated. Is gossip really human nature?
"Um, Qi Ling, we were just curious, you were inside for so long, didn't you do anything else?" Flender said to Qi Ling.
"No, it's just simple healing!" Qi Ling said. Although no one could see the process, Qi Ling believed that she was indeed healing someone.
"Hahaha, Old Zhao, did you see that? I told you, Qi Ling wouldn't have the guts!" Flender laughed loudly. "Quick, give me the money!"
Zhao Wuji sighed, reluctantly took out a few Gold Soul Coin, and handed them to Flender.
" Brother Qi, can we go in and see Zhu Zhuqing?" Xiao Wu asked.
"Of course she can, but I think she needs to rest too," Qi Ling said. "Anyway, I have to rest now, or I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on."
Once a person relaxes from a tense state, they often release all the fatigue in their body at once. So after returning to her room, Qi Ling fell asleep as soon as she lay down and slept for three days straight.
Three days later, when Qi Ling woke up, he felt a strong hunger. He was about to get out of bed to eat something when he saw Luna next to him, who seemed to have been waiting for him.
Upon seeing Qi Ling awake, Luna exclaimed happily, then, as if remembering something, hurriedly said, "Mr. Qi Ling, you're finally awake! Dean Flender came here yesterday and said that if you were awake, he would take you to his office right away!"
"Hmm?" Qi Ling frowned, a bad feeling rising within him. He quickly dressed, grabbed something to eat, and rushed to the dean's office.
As soon as Qi Ling entered the dean's office, she saw a distressed expression on Flender's face, as if something important had happened.
Something happened at this time? Could it be...? Qi Ling hurriedly asked, "Dean, what happened? Why do you look like that?"
Seeing Qi Ling, Flender gave a wry smile and said, " Qi Ling, you're finally awake. A lot has happened while you were asleep these past three days!"
Qi Ling found a place to sit down and asked, "Dean, what's wrong? What happened?"
"Three major events have occurred in these three days, earth-shattering events!" Flender said. "The first event was on the night we came to the aid of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, when another of the Upper Three Sects, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, encountered trouble!"
Qi Ling was startled and hurriedly said, " The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Could it be the Spirit Hall?"
"That's right, it was the Spirit Hall," Flender said. "That night, the Spirit Hall launched a surprise attack on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, resulting in the complete annihilation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan! Almost every member perished."
"Since we don't have specific information, all we know for now is that those who made the move were indeed from the Spirit Hall, including Qian Xunji!"
" Qian Xunji? How is that possible? Wasn't he sealed by the Sleepless City?" Qi Ling exclaimed in surprise.
"The intelligence is absolutely accurate. Qian Xunji seems to have regained his strength using some unknown method," Flender said. "Under Qian Xunji's leadership, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was completely powerless to resist; the entire sect was wiped out."
Qi Ling frowned. He really hadn't imagined that Qian Xunji, who had only just taken control of the entire Spirit Hall, would possess such power, enough to attack two major sects simultaneously. This was far beyond his imagination!
Although the fact that the Spirit Hall was able to mobilize so many Titled Douluo this time showed that Qian Xunji's power far exceeded expectations, Qi Ling still didn't expect him to use this feint attack, and suffered a great loss as a result.
Even if Qi Ling knew about this, he probably wouldn't have any good solutions. He had already exhausted all his strength to support the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and he really couldn't think of any way to save the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan at the same time.
"Then Grandmaster and Erlong Master's wife..." Qi Ling said.
Flender sighed and said, "They both fainted the moment they heard the news. They just woke up. Xiao San is comforting Xiaogang, while Xiao Wu and Rongrong are comforting Erlong."
"This is undoubtedly a huge blow to them, but I believe that with their character, they are capable of weathering this disaster."
"Damn it, that Qian Xunji, he's done so many terrible things!" Qi Ling said. "Could the second matter also be related to him?"
"You guessed right," Flender said. " Qi Ling, Qian Xunji has officially become Pope!"
