Chapter 908 Elder of Shu Mountain?
By the time Jiang Yunying realized what was happening, Lin Ping's blood was already flowing into the other person's body, and it was absolutely not advisable to interrupt it at this moment.
As blood was continuously injected, the other person's heartbeat stabilized and their breathing became much smoother.
Lin Ping didn't know the other person's identity yet, so he couldn't risk his life to save them.
When he felt his strength waning, Lin Ping stopped the blood transfusion, leaving his fate entirely to the other person's.
“It’s dark and damp here, let’s carry him out,” Lin Ping suggested.
Jiang Yunying was still worried about Lin Ping, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was alright.
"I know my husband is kind-hearted, but you must not harm your own body to save others in the future," Jiang Yunying said earnestly.
She used to be a shrewd and capable person, but ever since she came out with Lin Ping, she has become fussy and indecisive.
"I will obey your orders, Madam!" Lin Ping assured him.
He also felt that he had been a bit reckless just now. If the other party had suddenly opened his eyes and injured him, the situation would have become very bad, since Jiang Yunying could not see clearly in the dark.
To avoid being discovered by this man's enemies, Lin Ping led him a long way.
Lin Ping barely slept all night, clearly preparing for this ticking time bomb.
"Hmph, my husband owes me a cultivation session!" Jiang Yunying pouted, very dissatisfied.
"This is too exploitative! Can't we just have a day off?" Lin Ping was on the verge of tears.
Whenever he thought about cultivation, he would unconsciously clench his legs together, and his whole body would feel weak.
It's true that boys have a harder time with these kinds of things.
As it turned out, Lin Ping's ability to keep watch at night was not very strong; he was already fast asleep before the middle of the night.
"Young man, you're awake?"
In his sleep, Lin Ping seemed to hear a strange voice. When he opened his eyes, he was immediately startled.
"A ghost! A ghost!" Lin Ping scrambled to his feet, staring at the other person in disbelief.
"You saved me, don't you trust your own medical skills?" A smile appeared on the middle-aged man's cold face.
"Are you the person from last night?" Lin Ping asked suspiciously.
He had secured the other man's life, but he couldn't get him to stand up immediately. His sixth sense told Lin Ping that this man was definitely not simple.
"My name is Yan Gang. Thank you for saving my life, young brother," the middle-aged man said respectfully, kneeling on one knee.
"I, Lin Wuqing, saved you unintentionally, senior," Lin Ping said calmly, not wanting to claim credit for it.
Although he didn't know the middle-aged man's true identity, the fact that he was assassinated meant he must have some powerful connections and was likely carrying valuable items.
If Lin Ping overemphasizes his own contributions, it could easily lead to misunderstandings.
"Now that you've woken up, senior, we should leave," Jiang Yunying reminded them.
A woman's intuition is definitely stronger than a man's, and Jiang Yunying knew that Yan Gang's identity was extraordinary.
"Very well, then we shall part ways here." Lin Ping smiled faintly.
He sensed a lot of wariness in Yan Gang's eyes. The more he tried to get close to him, the more likely he was to arouse the other party's resentment. It would be better to play hard to get.
His sharp eyes kept darting around, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you for a few more days, young man. I'm really too weak to walk."
Jiang Yunying kept giving Lin Ping meaningful glances; she really didn't want to have any more contact with Yan Gang.
Not only did it cause unnecessary trouble, it also ruined their life together.
With a stranger by my side, how can I cultivate at night?
"Alright then, we'll take care of you for two more days, senior," Lin Ping said with difficulty, knowing that this was the limit of Jiang Yunying's tolerance.
Is it really okay to go three days without cultivating?
Jiang Yunying rolled her eyes at Lin Ping and reluctantly agreed.
The three of them rested in place for two days. Yan Gang's body was much stronger than before, and he could at least stand up and walk.
Over the past two days, the three of them spoke very little. Lin Ping never asked about the other person's identity, nor did he introduce himself in much detail.
"Now that you are all well, senior, I should take my leave," Lin Ping said with a smile.
Yan Gang's vigilance made Lin Ping realize the seriousness of the matter; he didn't need to focus his energy on a dangerous individual.
If you want to know about the situation in the Sichuan and Chongqing region, just ask anyone.
"Where are you headed, young man?" Yan Gang asked.
"Where to go?" That is indeed a question.
Lin Ping hesitated for a long time before saying, "Go to the west."
Having just passed through Jianmen Pass, and still some distance from the real Bashu region, Lin Ping was indeed heading south.
"What a coincidence, I'm also going south, why don't we go together?" Yan Gang revealed a harmless smile.
After observing for several days, he felt that Lin Ping had no bad intentions and was also quite skilled in martial arts, which was just right to protect him.
"Where in the south are you headed, senior?" Lin Ping continued to ask.
Yan Gang understood that Lin Ping wasn't testing him, but rather looking for an excuse to get rid of him.
Once upon a time, Yan Gang was a highly sought-after figure, but now he is regarded as a burden.
"To be honest, I am a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. Not long ago, I was hunted down by the Sword King Sect, which is why I ended up here," Yan Gang said with a sigh, hoping to gain Lin Ping's trust.
"Shushan Sword Sect? Sword King Sect?" Lin Ping's head was throbbing. He hadn't expected to offend the Sword King Sect so soon after entering the Bashu region.
The fact that Yan Gang was able to reveal his true identity and explain the power of his enemies was enough to demonstrate his sincerity.
Jiang Yunying grabbed Lin Ping's hand and was about to leave, she would not forget Luo Shaoyin's instructions.
It's better to offend the three major sword sects than to offend the Sword King Sect.
"Sorry, we don't want to offend the Sword King Sect," Jiang Yunying said bluntly.
The meaning is clear: they are going their separate ways.
"To tell you the truth, I am an elder of the Shushan Sword Sect. If you send me back to Shushan, you will receive great benefits, including becoming an inner disciple of the Shushan Sword Sect." Yan Gang directly offered his benefits.
Without Lin Ping's escort, it would have been difficult for him to return to Mount Shu alive.
This small reward is nothing. If Lin Ping and Jiang Yunying can achieve something in the future, it will be a good thing for the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.
Thinking of how terrifying the Sword King Sect was, Lin Ping wanted to refuse immediately, but considering the martial arts tournament a year later, he could only bite the bullet and agree: "Okay, I promise to send you back!"
Jiang Yunying understood Lin Ping's thoughts and did not stop him.
"Hahaha, that's great! I like guys like you, young man." Yan Gang laughed heartily.
"Please lead the way, senior."
Lin Ping had only heard of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, but did not know where its mountain gate was, since Shu Mountain was a very large area.
It's the same principle as Chiyang Pavilion being located on Qilian Mountain; outsiders simply can't find it.
"Another lackey of the three great sword sects. I'm afraid you'll die at the hands of your own people." Yan Gang's lips curled into a chilling smile.
