After transmigrating, I cultivated immortality by smelling the scent.

Chapter 73 Try harder, I can still do it!

"Senior sister, I'm fine. Let's focus on fighting the enemy!" Ye Xiaobai said slowly, enduring her severe internal injuries, and then swallowed a few more healing pills.

"Okay, hang in there!" Li Xinyan could only say this when she saw how weak Ye Xiaobai looked.

Then, Li Xinyan continued to increase the intensity of her attacks, but her cultivation level was too low, so she posed little threat to Liu Yuqing.

Liu Yuqing's main target right now is Ye Xiaobai; he can't bear to hurt Li Xinyan, this beauty.

After several rounds of fighting, Ye Xiaobai was once again knocked away, coughing up blood and falling to the ground. He struggled to get up and felt that he had gained a deeper understanding of sword intent. He felt that as long as he practiced a little more later, he would be able to comprehend sword intent.

After barely managing to stand up, Ye Xiaobai took a few more healing pills to temporarily recover from his internal injuries during the lull in the attack.

"You brat, you've got a lot of pills, haven't you?" Liu Yuqing couldn't help but tease Ye Xiaobai as he devoured quite a few pills.

"There are indeed a lot. Do you want me to give you a few bottles? They're top-grade pills, you know. Do you want them?" Ye Xiaobai said with a wry smile. Right now, the pills are all he has left to hold on for a while. If he waits too long, even with the pills, his body won't be able to take it anymore.

"You're courting death!" Upon hearing this, Liu Yuqing immediately launched an attack, his black sword light carrying sword intent once again striking Ye Xiaobai.

Ye Xiaobai barely managed to muster his sword light to counterattack before being knocked down again, coughing up blood with a "pfft!" He then struggled to his feet, using his longsword for support, and swallowed several pills to keep his spirits up.

"Kid, stop struggling, just die!" Liu Yuqing said, releasing his powerful sword intent once again.

As expected, Ye Xiaobai was knocked down again and coughed up blood before staggering to his feet. He then popped a few pills into his mouth and said to Liu Yuqing with a smile, "Go for it, I can still do it!"

"By the way, a Core Formation stage elder from the White Tiger Sect in our Sanjiang Prefecture market is on his way. I just don't know whether you or I will die first!"

"Bluster!" Liu Yuqing naturally wouldn't easily believe Ye Xiaobai's words, and immediately swung his sword.

Ye Xiaobai was knocked down once again, then stood up shakily as usual, and then took a few more pills.

Then, in a trembling voice, he said, "Killing me is nothing, but the master of this senior sister next to me is a Core Formation cultivator. You know the market in Sanjiang Prefecture, it's not far from here. A Core Formation cultivator can get here in less than half an hour!"

"If you're not in a hurry, you can spar with a Core Formation cultivator from our White Tiger Sect in a bit!"

Liu Yuqing didn't believe Ye Xiaobai's words, but Sanjiang Prefecture was indeed very close to here, and he had heard that there was a Core Formation stage cultivator from the White Tiger Sect in charge. He knew that he couldn't kill Ye Xiaobai in a short time, and that it would be disadvantageous for him if it went on for too long. So he decided to give it one last try. If he couldn't kill Ye Xiaobai, he would leave immediately.

"Alright, if you can withstand my last move, I will let you go!" Liu Yuqing didn't wait for Ye Xiaobai's reply and immediately launched his strongest move.

"Black Water Dance!"

A massive wave of black sword light surged toward Ye Xiaobai like a tornado, leaving everyone astonished by the sight.

Ye Xiaobai disregarded his shock and unleashed his strongest sword technique with all his spiritual power.

"Soaring through the clouds!"

The soaring red sword energy and the black sword light quickly intertwined. The black sword light was indeed stronger, and the red sword light was quickly dispersed. Then, the black tornado directly swept Ye Xiaobai up to a height of more than ten meters. At the same time, the sword light kept cutting Ye Xiaobai's body. A moment later, he crashed heavily to the ground.

Ye Xiaobai lay on the ground unresponsive for a long time. Li Xinyan could no longer care about attacking Liu Yuqing and rushed over, desperately calling out, "Junior brother! Junior brother! Wake up! Wake up!"

When Liu Yuqing saw that Ye Xiaobai was no longer moving, she immediately showed a joyful expression.

This battle should end.

Ye Xiaobai was indeed seriously injured, but he still had a breath left in his heart and could not give up. His senior sister still needed his protection. Perhaps he heard Li Xinyan's call, or perhaps he smelled the familiar scent of apricot blossoms, Ye Xiaobai painfully opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Senior sister, I'm fine!"

"I thought you would never wake up again!" Li Xinyan's tense heart relaxed instantly, and then she hugged Ye Xiaobai tightly and cried bitterly.

"Senior sister, don't be sad. I'm still here, and the enemy is still here!" Ye Xiaobai comforted Li Xinyan while reminding her that the enemy was still there.

Li Xinyan immediately stopped crying, wiped away her tears, stood in front of Ye Xiaobai, and looked at Liu Yuqing indignantly, saying, "If you want to fight, I'll fight alongside you!"

Seeing that even his strongest move hadn't killed Ye Xiaobai, Liu Yuqing realized that if he dragged this out any longer, the Core Formation stage cultivators from the White Tiger Sect might actually arrive. It was best to retreat first.

"Fine, brat, you're lucky to be alive today! If we meet again, I'll take your dog's life!" Liu Yuqing said angrily.

"Who will win next time is still unknown!" Ye Xiaobai said, forcing himself to speak.

"Fairy, I have urgent business to attend to today. Let's cultivate together another day!" Liu Yuqing said with a smile to Li Xinyan, and then quickly flew away on his sword.

After watching Liu Yuqing's departing figure disappear, Ye Xiaobai quickly told Li Xinyan to take him and Junior Sister Chen away from this place.

"Junior brother, what are you afraid of? Isn't the Core Formation stage elder on his way?" Li Xinyan asked, puzzled.

"My dear senior sister, there's no such thing as a Core Formation stage elder. I was just fooling Liu Yuqing. We need to leave this place quickly, or we'll be finished if Liu Yuqing comes to her senses and returns," Ye Xiaobai said anxiously.

Li Xinyan then understood what was going on and immediately took the two away on their swords.

Soon, Li Xinyan found a quiet place, set up a simple formation, and then took Ye Xiaobai and Chen Ling inside to heal their injuries.

Three days later, Chen Ling had fully recovered from her injuries.

Ye Xiaobai was seriously injured and would not be able to fully recover in three days. He could only perform simple daily activities and could not even fly on his sword.

"I am truly grateful to Senior Sister Li and Senior Brother Ye for risking their lives to save us this time, otherwise..." Chen Ling said sincerely, but when she thought about the terrible consequences she might have faced, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Oh, Junior Sister Chen, we're all good sisters, why are you being so formal?" Li Xinyan quickly comforted her.

"Senior Brother Ye, how is your injury?" Chen Ling asked Ye Xiaobai with a worried expression.

"The recovery is going well, but it still needs some time to recuperate," Ye Xiaobai said calmly.

However, it took a while to get a good look at Chen Ling's appearance. She had a round face and was not very tall, which made her look quite cute. A faint peach blossom fragrance wafted from her, which was refreshing.

"It's alright, this guy is incredibly lucky!" Li Xinyan reassured him.

"That is!"

Chen Ling was completely reassured by Ye Xiaobai and Li Xinyan, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

"Senior sister, it's still not very safe here. Let's go back to Sanjiang City Market first!" Ye Xiaobai suggested as a precaution.

"Alright! I'll listen to you, junior brother!"

Afterwards, the three returned to Sanjiang City.
