! I came here treasure hunting. Such an interesting thing, there’s no way I’d miss it. But I didn’t expect you guys to make such a big deal out of this place and send so many people directly to secure...Chapter 261: Not Rescuing 1

"The one covering me is my boss, and she's still in the middle of her cultivation. We'll talk about it once she breaks through to a higher realm." Xianyao shook his head as he said this.

"Your boss You mean Guxing, right What realm has she reached now" Princess Kexin interjected, asking the question. Here, only she and Yue Qingling knew about Xianyao's boss, but even Yue Qingling didn't know much about her.

Princess Kexin was also eager to find out if she could catch up with Guxing.

"She She’s already at the middle stage of the Emperor realm now and will soon reach the advanced stage. She's a bit stronger than your master." Xianyao said with a smile.

"What! A little stronger than me!" Yue Qingling exclaimed, her eyes wide in displeasure.

But Princess Kexin softly replied on the side, "As expected. I still can't catch up to her. She’s a genius and has your help as well..."

In truth, Princess Kexin had long anticipated this outcome—though she was progressing rapidly, it would be difficult for her to catch up with Guxing. What she didn’t expect was that the gap between them wasn’t just widening but also becoming larger.

"Impossible! She was only at the initial stage of the King realm back then and had just entered it. How could she have advanced so much within these two or three years!" Yue Qingling refused to believe this, as it seemed too unbelievable for her.

Princess Kexin spoke up before Xianyao could respond: "With him around, anything is possible! The miracles I've seen are already plenty..." This made Yue Qingling fall silent.

That’s right. Miracles—anything associated with this boy seemed like a miracle. It was said that even the Demon Sect had been defeated by him, and those two female war deities were now at the Emperor realm as well; back then, they were actually weaker than Guxing.

Only a few people knew about Guxing's situation—she was recognized as a genius who once won first place in the Dragon Gate Competition. But what happened later wasn’t known to anyone since Guxing had always stayed at the top rank, fighting only with Le Youran occasionally.

In terms of fame and reputation, Nangong Susan and Miss Big Sister were much higher. They seemed invincible, continuing their legendary feats even after Xianyao left the Tang Empire. It was said that they had helped the Tang Empire defeat several enemy nations with miraculous results, leaving the entire continent in awe.

If Xianyao revealed his relationship with them to scare off the Azure Dragon Society people, it would certainly work. But Xianyao seemed unlikely to do this; even if he wanted to intimidate them, there was someone stronger than those two—Princess Longgu—that could be used.

The moment Princess Longgu appeared, all resentment from the Azure Dragon Society instantly vanished—not because they had become enlightened but because they knew that no one in their group could match up against a princess. Absolute powerhouses like her were unmatched by them.

Recently, it seemed as though Princess Longgu was becoming more normal; previously, she would be crazy for about three to four days out of seven, but now it was only once or twice a week at most. This had greatly increased her intimidating presence.

"Alright then. There's nothing else here. I'm going to have lunch—I've spent quite some true energy." Xianyao didn’t want to be watched anymore and decided to leave, citing his hunger as an honest excuse—he was indeed a bit hungry after just eating one steamed dumpling, though he said it in the most understated way possible.

"I'm also hungry. I got hurt earlier too; I need something to eat." Princess Kexin said with a smile, although her words were obviously for politeness’s sake, no one paid much heed as this was quite normal.

Yue Qingling frowned and glanced at Princess Kexin before shaking her head helplessly: "I've been busy too. Let's go eat something together."

"Everyone, our people are all here now, no one is cooking. Why don’t we have someone else prepare the meal Xianyao Junior Friend, you can assist with healing; let’s get others to make food." Tian Yi said at this moment, pointing out a crucial issue—there was currently nobody in the kitchen.

Everyone was busy helping out. Although those in the kitchen weren’t medical experts, as people from Medicinal Immortal Ridge, they knew a bit of basic treatment and could handle simple tasks.

"..." Xianyao remained silent for a moment before saying, "I'll help you cook then…" Tian Yi was taken aback by this response. He had hoped to have Xianyao assist in saving lives but instead got him to cook meals, which anyone could do; however, not everyone could perform medical skills like Xianyao.

"Cough, cough. Xianyao Junior Friend, cooking can be done by others, these people standing here have no use. You should come help with the rescues; we are all tired!" Tian Yi said somewhat helplessly.

"But..."

"Xianyao, I can cook for you. Let me make something to eat." Princess Kexin said at this moment with a gentle smile.

"That's too much trouble; you’re a princess after all," Xianyao replied somewhat awkwardly.

"What princess We're friends, and I’ve been helped by you without any repayment. Let’s settle it now!" Princess Kexin didn’t care if Xianyao agreed and headed towards the kitchen directly.

However, soon, she stopped in her tracks, turned around weakly, and asked: "Where is the kitchen"

"..." Xianyao shook his head, speechless.

"Choose someone to take her there and help with cooking. With Xianyao Junior Friend's assistance, we’ll find it easier." Tian Yi immediately instructed a kitchen member to assist, as they needed to solve the meal problem or these people wouldn't be able to continue their work.

"You guys who are just standing around, go help out instead of waiting for a handout!" At this moment, Xianyao told the people accompanying him. Some people were injured, but there were also those who weren't hurt; they couldn't afford to waste any resources.

Moreover, Xianyao had another purpose—

"Princess Kexin, you just need to cook for us few individuals; don’t worry about the others. Let them take care of themselves!"

Xianyao was still thinking about Princess Kexin; given her personality, if she saw that everyone else wasn't doing anything, she might end up taking care of everything herself, and no one would know how exhausted she'd become.

"Alright then. What do you need me to help with Let me make it clear beforehand: I won’t be saving anyone from the Green Dragon Society." When Xianyao rolled up his sleeves in preparation for starting work, he mentioned a condition… Tianyi felt embarrassed and said, "Little friend Xianyao, doctors have parents’ hearts!"

"That depends on who they are. If I consider them my sons but they want to kill me, why would I need these sons" Xianyao spoke very seriously.

After hearing Xianyao’s words, some people couldn’t help but laugh; he wasn’t taking advantage of anyone, and there was no way for others to refute this. It was quite amusing.

"Alright then, let us handle those individuals!" Tianyi had no choice either. In any case, as long as they were scheduled properly, the situation could be avoided. The most important thing was that Xianyao would help them and wouldn’t necessarily have to take on everything himself.

Tianyi probably hadn't thought at this moment that such a situation which shouldn't appear would end up happening by coincidence; everyone had finished eating, many people had taken breaks, and Xianyao was treating the injured one by one.

At this time, unlike when he treated Princess Kexin before, Xianyao wasn’t as meticulous. He basically stabilized their injuries and let them handle the rest themselves without wasting time on follow-up matters; after all, these were things that martial artists could manage.

Because of this, Xianyao’s treatment speed became very fast. Someone noticed that after Xianyao treated several people's injuries, others including Tianyi only managed to treat one person each. This speed was incomparable and the quality wasn’t bad either; it might even be better than what Tianyi et al could manage.

This made everyone understand two things: first, that Xianyao’s medical skills were indeed superior to Tianyi's—this was inconceivable as Tianyi basically represented the pinnacle of medicine on the continent. Yet this young man could have medical skills even higher than the highest representation; what kind of concept was that

Secondly, Xianyao clearly gave special treatment to Princess Kexin, and no one else would receive such treatment—of course, referring to those present here!

As Xianyao treated each person individually, the number of people lying on the ground gradually decreased; even if more injured individuals were continuously brought in, this also indicated that the speed at which Xianyao et al could treat them had surpassed the rate they were being brought in.

This way, everyone naturally got a brief respite. Don’t forget—these people had been busy all morning long.

Everything was proceeding smoothly; if this continued, it wouldn't take much time for Medicine Immortal Ridge to return to normal. Although there would be many guests, at least they wouldn’t experience such frantic activity.

However, it seemed that heaven enjoyed causing minor inconveniences…

"Little friend Xianyao, this person is almost dead; do you have any way" Tianyi brought in an injured individual lying on a stretcher. The patient had no color to their face at all and looked severely injured.

At this moment, there seemed to be something strange about Tianyi’s expression—it didn’t seem like he felt embarrassed because he couldn't save someone and thus asked Xianyao; instead, it was a worried kind of strangeness.

Xianyao took a look at the injured person and found that they were a beautiful young girl. Although her face was pale and she had blood all over her body, this didn’t hide her beauty.

However, Xianyao did not linger because of her beauty; he quickly turned to Tianyi and said, "As long as they’re not dead, there’s always a way!"

"So that means you can save her" Tianyi's eyes lit up slightly.

"No, I cannot," Xianyao shook his head in refusal.

This surprised most people; they wondered what Xianyao meant. Didn’t he say there was a way Why then say "cannot"

"Why not Didn't you just say that you have a way" Tianyi asked.

"I do have a way to save her, but the issue is that I don’t want to!" Xianyao replied.

"Why"

“This should be something you know yourself; why ask me” Xianyao looked at Tianyi, his words somewhat profound, leaving those who didn't understand feeling puzzled.

Soon, Tianyi explained the unclear part—RQIt won’t be that long; it will pass in the blink of an eye!" Chen Xi said casually."... For you maybe, but not for me. Am I supposed to go into seclusion here for ten years and come out later as a風雲人物...
