Chapter 597 - 596: Success!

The Little Paperman successfully intercepted those people who clearly came with malicious intent.
If it weren’t for the master’s order not to easily break the rules, those who dared manipulate monsters would have been taken out by now!
Yun Ran’s attention was entirely on Xuan Chu.
Watching Xuan Chu sitting in the Array, his expression was painful, and his skin began to crack slightly.
Yun Ran directly ignored her own injuries from the backlash and struggled to stand up.
Then she drew out part of her Merit from her body and infused it into the Array.
With the intervention of the Merit Golden Light, the speed of Xuan Chu’s skin cracking slowed down, but the blood oozing from those wounds made him look miserable.
The sound of "crack, crack, crack..." echoed.
The Light Shield enveloping Xuan Chu’s Array began to develop cracks, and Yun Ran’s expression changed slightly.
She had paid the price of a section of Divine Wood to isolate the Heavenly Dao’s aura, yet it was already struggling to hold.
Yun Ran immediately cast several Magic Spells, and the cracks on the Light Shield gradually closed, but her lips had turned pale as paper.
In the current situation, if anyone with a bit more skill attacked Yun Ran, her life really would be in danger.
The Little Paperman, acting as Yun Ran’s protector, sensed Yun Ran’s life force rapidly weakening.
Its voice trembled, "Master, please stop..."
As the Little Paperman’s voice fell, a torn wound appeared on Yun Ran’s arm.
The resentment coiled around her arm began frantically absorbing the blood oozing from Yun Ran’s wound, making her complexion even paler.
"Master..."
Yun Ran’s expression remained unchanged, her tone firm and unwavering.
"If I withdraw now, Xuan Chu and I are done for! Besides, since he trusted me with his life in my hands, I can’t give up halfway!"
Just when Yun Ran felt nearly emptied, Xuan Chu finally opened his eyes.
However, seeing the different lights in Xuan Chu’s eyes made Yun Ran’s heart suddenly tremble.
One eye glowed in a mysterious blue, representing the past he had seen, while the other gleamed with golden starlight, indicating he saw the future.
This means, Xuan Chu succeeded.
"Pfft!"
Yun Ran could no longer hold it in, and a mouthful of blood spewed out as her mind relaxed slightly.
Although she hadn’t been completely emptied, she was close, and her body slumped weakly towards the ground.
"Master!"
Fortunately, Yun Ran still had some reliable Magic Artifacts, and just as she was about to fall to the ground.
The Little Paperman immediately flew over, supporting Yun Ran’s back with its hands, allowing her to steady herself.
The glow in Xuan Chu’s eyes hadn’t completely dissipated, giving him a somewhat dazed appearance. It wasn’t until Yun Ran spat blood that he seemed to come to his senses.
After the Little Paperman supported Yun Ran from falling, Xuan Chu rushed over with a face full of anxiety.
"How are you?"
However, Xuan Chu’s condition wasn’t much better than Yun Ran’s; if it weren’t for Yun Ran’s Merit intervention, this guy would’ve been torn apart while divining the Heavenly Secret.
At this moment, the various wounds on his body made him appear bloodied, and the bloody scent wafted directly into Yun Ran’s nose.
Yun Ran hurriedly raised her hand to stop him from getting closer, her tone weak, "Don’t come near me, I’m dizzy, and the blood scent on you is making me want to vomit again!"
Xuan Chu: ...
He halted his steps and glanced at himself, as the dense pain began to spread throughout his body.
Xuan Chu couldn’t help but let out a hiss; if Yun Ran hadn’t mentioned it, he hadn’t felt the pain before, but now, it truly hurt.
The Little Paperman came over holding a small bottle, "This is the medicine the master prepared for you!"
The tone clearly carried a hint of anger.
If it weren’t for Xuan Chu, the master wouldn’t have done such a dangerous thing!
Being rebuked by the Little Paperman, Xuan Chu was also at fault and didn’t dare say anything. He could only manage a flattering smile.
"Thank you."
Saying this, he opened the bottle and stuffed all the medicine inside his mouth; the drug melted upon contact.
Not long after ingesting it, the torn wounds on his body gradually stopped bleeding, and the dense pain eased significantly.
He was about to tell Yun Ran about his findings, but suddenly, Yun Ran’s eyes closed without warning, and her head drooped.
Seeing this, Xuan Chu rushed over in panic, ignoring Yun Ran’s previous complaints about the bloody scent on him.
"Yun Ran, don’t scare me!"
Xuan Chu put his fingers under Yun Ran’s nose; fortunately, there was still a faint hint of breath.
The heart that had leaped into his throat started to settle back down.
Earlier, due to the distance and only some starlight, he hadn’t clearly seen Yun Ran’s condition.
Now closer, Xuan Chu held Yun Ran’s hand and began taking her pulse.
Earlier, to sustain the cracking Light Shield, Yun Ran’s body also sustained some cracks and wounds.
Even though much of the blood was absorbed by the vines possessed by resentment, some blood still trickled down her arm.
Currently, Xuan Chu’s hand touched the sticky blood on Yun Ran’s arm.
And the vines that had already started climbing up Yun Ran’s neck shocked Xuan Chu to the core.
Unfortunately, Yun Ran had already passed out.
Otherwise, he would’ve asked why she hadn’t told him she was afflicted by resentment earlier.
If he had known, he wouldn’t have let Yun Ran help conceal the Heavenly Dao’s aura at such a critical moment.
But now, it’s too late to say anything, the urgent matter is to quickly treat Yun Ran’s injuries.
Xuan Chu looked at the Little Paperman beside him, eyeing him ’viciously’.
He quickly said, "Quick, take your master back to the RV!"
The Little Papermen, fearing any bump might worsen the master’s condition, carefully lifted Yun Ran.
However, Xuan Chu only had one Little Paperman which seized his clothes and didn’t care if he felt uncomfortable.
The other Little Papermen guarded the way back, in front and behind.
After Yun Ran was returned to the RV, the Little Paperman instantly transformed into a ’little nurse’, beginning to treat Yun Ran’s external wounds.
As for Xuan Chu, the Little Paperman was much rougher, directly spraying alcohol onto his body.
When applying medicine and bandaging, it was only concerned with speed, without caring if Xuan Chu grimaced in pain.
"Alright, the RV is the master’s resting place, you should get off!"
The Little Paperman said while pulling out a tent from the RV, setting it up haphazardly.
Seeing he wasn’t welcomed, Xuan Chu grabbed a bit of food and sheepishly got off the RV.
He feared that if he were a second slower, the Little Paperman would kick him off.
