Pei Mianman quickly reached out an arm to support him. “Ah Zu, don’t let yourself be tricked! Not even those guys from the Devil Sect could injure her that badly! Zhuxie Chixin had to have made it in time. That’s the only explanation for her grievous wounds. With the help of those from the capital, how could anything have happened to Chuyan?”

Zu An finally snapped out of his daze. In the dungeon, he had seen Chuyan use her ultimate, forbidden technique to fend off a ninth-ranked Shi Kun despite being at the fifth rank herself. There was no way she could be killed so easily, now that she was at the seventh rank. Even if she decided not to use that technique, it still wouldn’t be easy for Mosquito Daoist to kill her.

He hadn’t sensed her unleashing her ultimate, forbidden technique, which meant that Chuyan had never been forced into such a dire, life-threatening situation.

These thoughts help to calm him down....
