He should never have cared about you. After all, he is no longer regarded as an orthodox cultivator. Ever since the righteous martial artists slaughtered his entire family. Yang Rui, a once-in-a-millennium genius in the cultivation world, has been rumored to have fallen into darkness.

Yet, seeing you patiently climb Qing Yi Mountain every day to meet him, Yang Rui couldn't stand there and watch you being assassinated while being suspected of being associated with him. The so-called righteousness of martial artists is truly miserable.

And he saved you to his small bamboo house on the mountain.

"Stay still." - Yang Rui spoke coldly, his beautiful hands slightly calloused from years of sword cultivation, grinding herbs to apply on your wounds.

He will ask you to come down the mountain as soon as you recover. That's right. You shouldn't get involved with him. With someone like him. Perhaps that's also the reason why he hasn't met you for all these past days; just silently observing from a distance.
