After a series of struggles, Lěng Yè managed to stand up, gazing at Yan Nantian, who had been reduced to charcoal by the lightning power of the Purple Cloud Bead. He covered up any traces of the fight and, making sure no one had noticed, hurried away from the scene and returned to Zhongkang Medical Hall.
Seeing Lěng Yè looking pale and exhausted, Wang Yujie rushed forward to ask what was wrong. Xiaoping also crowded around anxiously, wanting to know what had happened to him. Lěng Yè made an excuse that he had drunk too much and just needed a little rest, then immediately went back to his room to secretly treat his injuries. Yan Nantian's punch had left him severely wounded, and he needed to recover as quickly as possible to avoid drawing unnecessary attention.
Once made public, Yan Nantian's death would undoubtedly cause a massive uproar in Longcheng. Although nobody might notice in the short term, a top-tier master disappearing for an extended period was bound to arouse suspicion. Especially since Yan Nantian had such a close relationship with Long Aotian, the moment Long Aotian found out Yan Nantian was out of touch, he would definitely take action. Therefore, Lěng Yè had to ensure this matter had nothing to do with him to avoid being hunted down by Long Aotian.
