Chapter 1362 - 1362 Decision

1362 Decision

She slowly opened her eyes and saw the snow-white roof of the hospital. It was silent all around, except for the faint sound of even breathing.

Jian Ai turned around and saw Jian Yu sleeping on the sofa in the ward with a blanket over his long body.

Although she had fainted, Jian Ai still remembered what had happened before she fainted. She had to knock herself unconscious to control the restlessness of the power of blood.

Although the method was a little rough, no one could help her then. She was just trying.

!!

Fortunately, she saw some results. Otherwise, if she lost control, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Jian Ai felt a lingering fear in her heart, especially since the power of blood was suddenly agitated this time. Moreover, it had never happened before. This powerful force seemed to get out of her control. When it appeared, it became an unknown fear constantly threatening Jian Ai and the people around her.

Jian Ai didn’t like the feeling of things getting out of control, but she was helpless against the power of blood. Even Yu Wuyuan couldn’t do anything.

At this moment, she was like a ticking time bomb that might explode at any moment. She might even implicate others.

With a grave expression on her face, Jian Ai had to weigh all of this in her heart.

The next morning, Bai Zhou and the rest arrived at the hospital.

As soon as he entered, he saw the huge blood bump on Jian Ai’s head. Bai Zhou couldn’t help but say in shock, “Oh, your bump is big enough. I feel you’ve grown a head again!”

Not that Bai Zhou was exaggerating, but Jian Ai was afraid that she would suffer if she didn’t faint at once, so she hardened her heart and used a lot of strength.

The blood bump was huge, but after a night of congestion, it became even bigger. It was indeed a shocking sight.

Jian Ai wanted to roll her eyes, but she was afraid that her expression would affect her blood bump, so she held back.

“I’m already like this. Don’t tease me,” Jian Ai lay on the hospital bed and said.

Bai Zhou did not push his luck. Jian Ai had already explained what had happened yesterday to Bai Zhou over the phone, so everyone knew that the power of blood got agitated.

“Ever since the Sect Master successfully advanced, this power of blood has been relatively obedient. The only time it awakened was when the Sect Master’s life was threatened,” Xiao Zhen said slowly. “I initially thought that this power of blood would always protect the Sect Master at critical moments. It might not be a bad thing. Now, it seems that I’ve thought too simply.”

“This ability is evil to begin with. If we can’t control it sooner, I’m afraid it will subtly devour people’s hearts,” Chi Lian said. “The High Priest has been living in seclusion all year round. Now that he’s willing to appear, I think he’s considered the pros and cons of this matter.”

Everyone’s expressions were not good because Jian Ai was in an unknown danger. However, they knew little about the power of blood and were helpless.

Seeing this, Jian Ai couldn’t help but say, “I don’t think I can wait that long.”

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Jian Ai in unison. After a while, Bai Zhou said, “What do you mean?”

“The sooner, the better. I’m afraid too!” Jian Ai said truthfully.

This was her decision after thinking about it for a night without sleeping.

She initially planned to celebrate the new year, but the power of blood did not want her to stay for the new year.

Even if she forced herself to stay, Jian Ai would feel uneasy. Instead of that, she might as well leave as soon as possible.

“I have to leave, anyway. It’s the same eventually,” Jian Ai said.

Hearing Jian Ai’s words, the others couldn’t help but look at each other, not knowing what to say.

Seeing everyone’s solemn expressions, Jian Ai pretended to smile relaxedly. “Look at all of you. I’m not going to die. I’m going to look for the High Priest. Are you worried with him by my side?”

“It’s not that we’re worried.” Bai Zhou suddenly felt down and slowly lowered his head. “It’s just that we’re upset at your sudden departure.”

To the twelve guards, Jian Ai was their core and even their belief.

They had gathered in Baiyun City because of Jian Ai. If Jian Ai left, the core would lose its cohesion. Without the twelve guards leading the way, they would probably return to their respective worlds.

Although Jian Ai would return one day and the twelve guards would gather, when he thought of this, he inevitably felt melancholic.

“Anyway, I’ll go with the Sect Master,” Si Yue suddenly said.

Bai Zhou suddenly widened his eyes and looked at him in disbelief. It was obvious that he was saying, ‘There’s such a thing?’

“I’ll go too!” Without waiting for Bai Zhou to react, Xiao Zhen said, “The power of blood is too unknown. Although the High Priest is powerful, his medical skills are inferior to mine. With me by the Sect Master’s side, I can take care of the Sect Master’s health.”

“Please bring me along, Sect Master,” Zhi Tong said. “I’m already used to living in the wild. If Brother Xiao Zhen isn’t around, I don’t know where to go!”

Only then did Bai Zhou come back to his senses. He quickly raised his hand. “I’ll go too. I can… I can…”

However, after a long time, Bai Zhou did not find any use for him to follow.

Everyone looked at him, waiting for him to explain further.

After a while, Bai Zhou’s eyes lit up. “I can bring Chi Yang along and cook for everyone!”

Chi Yang was speechless.

Jian Ai looked at everyone and couldn’t help but feel touched. However, she couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head. “Alright, don’t cause trouble.”

Everyone looked at Jian Ai and heard her say, “I’ll only bring Si Yue along!”

When Bai Zhou heard this, he pursed his lips and was about to say that Jian Ai was biased, but Jian Ai gave him a calming look. “I know you all want to follow me, but I’m going to transcend a tribulation, not go on a holiday.”

“The reason the High Priest chose a place isolated from the world is to stay away from the commotion. It’s not good to have too many people. It will make the High Priest unhappy! If he needs you, the High Priest will look for you!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai looked at Xiao Zhen and said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to stay in Baiyun City while I’m away. You can go anywhere you want, but I only have one condition. No matter where you go, bring Zhi Tong with you.”

Xiao Zhen nodded gently.

Then, Jian Ai said to Bai Zhou, “We haven’t extinguished your brother’s murderous intent towards you. I think you can’t go back to Qiusi for the time being. I’ll leave M Group to you! With Chi Yang taking care of you carefully, I’m not worried.”

“Don’t worry, Sect Master. I’ll take good care of Master!” Chi Yang spoke first.

Bai Zhou was unwilling, but he knew he could not abandon the Sect Master’s hard work. The company had just started developing, so he could not leave.
