Whoosh!

The green beam came crashing down at a speed as fast as lighting.

The old man from Chu Sect noticed the green beam a second ago, but the green beam was already before him the next moment.

Leaving no window for evasive maneuvers, the green beam came crashing down with fury, effortlessly severing the finger that the old man extended out.

“Arghhh!” the old man shrieked in pain. Blood seeped out from his severed finger and quickly dyed his robes red.

“Who's there? Who did this? You insolent fool! How dare you interfere in Chu Sect's affairs?”

After having his finger severed, the old man rapidly shuffled backward and finally came to a stop after backing away for a long distance.

As relentless rage and pain marred his face, he applied direct pressure on the wound and cursed at the direction where the attack came.

It was only then that the old man realized that the attacker was a man.

It was a young man with a lean physique and a handsome face.

Ever since his arrival, he had never once looked at the old man. Instead, he went straight to Xu Lei.

At that moment, Xu Lei was still lying on the ground, strengthless. She was also bleeding on her forehead.

Yet, the haunting pain she felt was no longer relevant.

She raised her head and stared intently at the man, who showed up before her.

Disbelief was reflected in her eyes in that split second.

She blinked again and again, trying to confirm what had happened before her.

Finally, with her lips still trembling, Xu Lei tentatively asked, “Ye Fan?”

The man did not answer. Instead, he walked up to her and bent down.

With his hand reached out, he gently caressed Xu Lei's exquisite face and wiped off the blood stain from her face.

“I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult spot, Lei.” Ye Fan's words rang out slowly, heavy with pity and guilt.

Though Xu Lei had never told him about the hardship she had endured, Ye Fan was crystal clear that everything she had been through was as painful and tough as his.
