The next instant the bickering stopped completely as Lin Xiao Tian slowly stepped forward.
The surrounding disciples imdiately fell silent while their eyes shifted toward him again. Even Tianhe lowered his head slightly after seeing the expression on Lin Xiao Tian’s face.
Without saying anything, Lin Xiao Tian carefully handed the unconscious Miao-Miao over to Tianhe before slowly walking toward Bai Xue’s body.
His steps remained steady but only he knew how heavy they felt.
As he finally stopped beside her, his hand slowly reached toward her pale face before gently brushing away the blood near her cheek.
At that mont countless mories surfaced uncontrollably inside his mind. He rembered the first ti he t her.
A little girl who had spent her entire life begging in the streets and doing odd jobs just to survive another day.
A girl who deliberately dirtied her face and hid her beauty constantly because she feared being dragged away into so pleasure house one day.
Yet despite all that hardship, she still smiled so brightly after joining the sect.
He still rembered the excitent within her eyes after learning she could finally walk the path of immortality like the cultivators she once admired from afar.
He rembered her proudly showing him her first successful technique.
He rembered her constantly complaining about her damaged blade and now she lay motionless before him.
Lin Xiao Tian slowly closed his eyes for a brief mont before forcefully suppressing every emotion threatening to surface.
The next instant his Qi spread outward imdiately and sealed all the wounds across Bai Xue’s body to stop the blood flowing further.
Several healing pills appeared within his hand before dissolving into pure dicinal essence that entered her body directly.
The torn flesh around the wound slowly regenerated while the blood staining her body was cleaned away completely.
Then he removed a beautiful white robe from his storage ring and carefully wrapped it around her body.
He did everything calmly and efficiently within only a few monts, yet his hands still trembled faintly throughout the entire process.
After finishing, Lin Xiao Tian quietly took out a small silver hairpin before gently placing it back into Bai Xue’s hair properly.
Only then did he finally try lifting her body himself but the mont he attempted to raise her, his movents suddenly stopped.
His hands trembled slightly again as for so reason, despite already possessing strength comparable to a Golden Core cultivator through the cloak, he could not lift that small girl in front of him.
It felt as though his chest had suddenly beco unbearably heavy. Lin Xiao Tian lowered his eyes briefly before hiding the trembling within his sleeves again.
Then he spoke quietly. "Miao Han... carry your Junior Sister Bai Xue."
Miao Han imdiately stepped forward silently after hearing him.
As he carefully lifted Bai Xue into his arms, the surrounding disciples unconsciously beca even quieter than before.
Her earlier pale and painful expression had already disappeared completely and now her face looked calm and serene instead.
Under the clean white robe and neatly arranged hair, her beauty appeared even clearer than before as if the final thing she saw had truly brought her happiness.
Just then footsteps approached from behind them, Ji Wuchen and his remaining subordinates slowly walked over while looking toward the group with complicated expressions.
Several of his followers still carried visible caution and anger after everything that had happened earlier.
But Ji Wuchen himself only looked toward Lin Xiao Tian quietly.
Then he bowed slightly toward both him and Bai Xue. "I am sorry for your loss, Sect Master Lin," he said in a low voice.
"You saved my life today, and I, Ji Wuchen, will rember this debt forever."
His gaze shifted briefly toward Bai Xue before continuing. "If you ever co to my region or require any help in the future, then as long as it is within my ability, I will never refuse."
Hearing this, Lin Xiao Tian simply nodded lightly without saying much.
But before anyone could continue speaking further, the entire platform suddenly trembled violently.
The shattered secret realm finally began collapsing completely, cracks spread rapidly across the remaining ground while huge pieces of the tavern above started collapsing downward continuously.
Space itself began distorting around the edges of the realm as black void cracks slowly spread outward.
At the center of the collapsing platform, a small ancient storage ring suddenly appeared alongside a portal leading outside.
Seeing this, everyone’s expressions changed imdiately. "Hurry!"
The remaining disciples instantly began moving toward the portal while avoiding the collapsing debris falling around them.
Miao Han carried Bai Xue carefully while Tianhe guarded beside him silently.
Yan Feng and the others quickly followed behind while the entire secret realm continued breaking apart around them.
Lin Xiao Tian turned his head slightly toward Xiaoshan he did not say anything, just gave him a single look.
Xiaoshan lowered his head silently before following behind without speaking a single word.
Above them the tavern ceiling completely collapsed as enormous rocks crashed downward one after another.
The group moved rapidly through the collapsing passage while massive stones crashed around them continuously.
Tianhe shattered incoming debris directly while Yan Feng guided the injured disciples carefully through the chaos.
Several sections of the platform already disappeared entirely into the spreading void below.
The entire realm had begun breaking apart completely, just as everyone finally reached the portal, Lin Xiao Tian suddenly moved and grabbed the ancient storage ring lying near the center.
The mont his fingers touched it, his eyes narrowed slightly.
If there really is a heavenly treasure here... then it is most likely inside this ring.
At the sa ti, he rembered the promise he had made earlier to Zhang Qing Yue.
Then without wasting another second, he imdiately rushed toward the portal alongside the others.
The mont the group leapt through the portal, the remaining platform behind them finally collapsed completely.
The secret realm shattered apart and disappeared directly into the endless void.
