Chapter 807: Chapter 748: Thorough Consideration

This unexpected attack took not only his fellow disciples by surprise but also Xia Wenjin.

Moreover, with Zhang Ge’s martial arts being formidable, and this move being so unexpected, Xia Wenjin felt her neck burning as if scorched by fire, with a hand like an iron hook, like cast in bronze.

If this hand exerted even a little bit more force, her weak neck would be broken.

Xia Wenjin didn’t move, she just calmly looked at him.

Li Haofan and Mu Ziyu were also shocked and quickly said, "Stop!"

It’s not that they didn’t care about their master, but since the situation was unclear, they needed to ask clearly before taking action.

Fortunately, even though Zhang Ge’s move was quick, fierce, and precise, he hadn’t completely lost his reason; his fingertips left a small gap, allowing Xia Wenjin to barely breathe.

Li Haofan asked, "Miss Xia, what is going on? How is my master?"

Xia Wenjin squinted her eyes, her gaze falling on Zhang Ge’s face, saying, "Brother Zhang, are you sure you want to ask me in this position?"

Zhang Ge angrily said, "Don’t play tricks!"

Xia Wenjin snorted lightly and said, "If I were playing tricks, would I have come out from this doorway?" There is a window over there; if she wanted to leave silently, it wouldn’t be difficult!

Mu Ziyu also hurriedly said, "Second Senior Brother, don’t be impulsive."

Zhang Ge reluctantly released his fingers, like iron pincers.

But even so, there were still bruises and marks where fingers had pinched on Xia Wenjin’s pale and delicate neck.

Xia Wenjin said, "Senior Sister Ning is asleep; she needs seven days of recovery to be fine!"

Mu Ziyu was taken aback, somewhat incredulous: "You mean to say, Master is fine, and once recovered, she won’t be tormented by illness anymore?"

Xia Wenjin proudly said, "Don’t worry, I don’t want to ruin my own reputation!" She glanced at Zhang Ge displeasingly; this temper was truly unbearable!

Naturally, Zhang Ge could see the displeasure in her eyes and he stretched his neck to look into the room. Xia Wenjin stepped aside, saying, "If you want to see, then go ahead and look, but do it quietly, don’t wake Senior Sister Ning!"

In a whirlwind, Zhang Ge rushed inside.

Along with him, Lu Hongyin also went in, while Li Haofan nodded at Xia Wenjin and followed inside.

Mu Ziyu didn’t move.

Of course, it wasn’t because she didn’t care about her master, but because she had to guard the door, in case Xia Wenjin intended to lure the tiger out of the mountain.

Xia Wenjin was aware of this but didn’t expose it.

This was quite normal, because right now, to them, she was just an outsider, and an unsolicited outsider at that!

After Li Haofan and the other two looked inside, they finally confirmed that their master was merely asleep, not dead as they initially feared. Immediately, they breathed a sigh of relief.

With this sigh, Zhang Ge realized he might have caused a problem.

However, seeing Ning Yujun’s arm wrapped tightly, and blood seeping out from the bandaged area, his eyes reddened again. With a glare, it seemed he was about to rush over to question Xia Wenjin.

Li Haofan reached out to hold him back.

Earlier, Xia Wenjin had explained that this method was very risky and bloody, yet the master chose this way. Now, with the Master merely asleep, if they were disrespectful to Xia Wenjin just because of the wounds on Master, not only would they be ungrateful, but wouldn’t it embarrass their master?

Li Haofan carefully tucked in the corners of the blanket, tugged his two junior brothers, and quietly tiptoed out the door.

At the door, he gestured invitingly to suggest talking outside.

Xia Wenjin compliantly walked out the door, while Mu Ziyu quickly dashed inside for a look, then swiftly exited, carefully closing the door behind.

Li Haofan said, "Third Brother, you stay here to guard Master!"

Lu Hongyin nodded.

Xia Wenjin reminded, "The basin with the bloodied water, it’ll be trouble for Brother Lu to take it out later, find a place to dig a pit and bury it. Remember to bury it deep!"

Lu Hongyin glanced at Li Haofan, and upon seeing his nod, said, "I understand!"

Li Haofan invited Xia Wenjin to have a talk in a side hall.

In the side hall, Li Haofan said sternly, "Second Brother, apologize!"

Zhang Ge hesitated, but reluctantly said, "Senior Brother, I’m sorry, it was my impulsiveness!"

Li Haofan frowned: "I meant for you to apologize to Miss Xia!"

Zhang Ge widened his eyes suddenly: "Why, Senior Brother?"

Li Haofan’s face turned grim: "Miss Xia is the doctor who treated Master. You acted without asking, harmed Miss Xia, not only being rude but also disheartening! Have you thought about Master? Have you thought about the consequences if Miss Xia is hurt; how others might view Master? As ungrateful, as repay kindness with harm? Do you want Master to bear such a reputation?"
