After Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan returned to the sect, they did not go directly back to the main hall, but went to the Elders' Hall first to find Fu Xiuming.

"Fu Xiuming, I've discovered that there are many criminals who are eyeing us covetously recently. If you have time, send someone to investigate." Ji Xiuzhu put his hand on Fu Xiuming's desk. "By the way, do you have any elixirs for internal injuries? Give me a few bottles. This disciple of mine must have forced the magic circle to activate, which hurt his bones."

Fu Xiuming raised his head, a gleam of light flashed in his deep eyes. He put down the pen in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Master, I have heard your news. There are indeed some unusual movements around the sect recently. I will send people to investigate immediately. As for the elixir, I have a bottle of 'Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill' here, which has a miraculous effect on internal injuries. You can give it to Qin Lan."

Ji Xiuzhu took the jade bottle handed to him by Fu Xiuming. The bottle exuded a faint spiritual aura, and it was obviously not an ordinary item.

She took the pill and nodded slightly to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Elder Fu. I will personally supervise Qin Lan to take it and ensure that he recovers as soon as possible."

Fu Xiuming waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite, and then asked, "Did you gain anything from your trip this time?"

A hint of complexity flashed across Ji Xiuzhu's eyes. After a moment's silence, he said, "We have gained something, but we have also encountered some difficult problems. I am not here, so I don't know the specific results. Anyway, Xiao Lanzi found a mysterious magic weapon in a ruin, but it seems to be related to her injuries. The specific situation needs further investigation."

Fu Xiuming frowned slightly. He knew that Ji Xiuming's disciple Qin Lan was gifted. If it was not necessary, Ji Xiuzhu would never let her take risks easily.

"Is there anything special about that magic weapon?" Fu Xiuming asked.

Ji Xiuzhu shook his head: "It's not clear yet, but Qin Lan seems to be able to resonate with it, which is definitely not ordinary. I suspect that the magic weapon is related to his life experience."

Fu Xiuming nodded to show his understanding.

He knew that Ji Xiuzhu had a strong desire to protect his disciples and would not easily let Qin Lan fall into danger.

"So what are you going to do?" Fu Xiuming asked.

Ji Xiuzhu stood up, his eyes determined: "I plan to take Qin Lan to the Spiritual Medicine Valley. The owner of the valley has some connections with my Shenyin Sect. Maybe I can get some rare medicinal herbs to help Qin Lan recover. At the same time, I also want to ask him to help identify the magic weapon."

Fu Xiuming nodded in agreement: "The master of Spiritual Medicine Valley is a highly skilled doctor and may be able to help. You must be careful on this trip. I will have the sect's secret guards accompany you for protection."

Ji Xiuzhu nodded slightly and turned to leave. Fu Xiuming suddenly spoke again: "Master, you should also pay attention to your safety. If those criminals really set their sights on our sect, I'm afraid they won't give up."

Ji Xiuzhu turned around and smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I know what to do."

After saying that, Ji Xiuzhu took Qin Lan and left the Elders' Hall and headed straight for the Spiritual Medicine Valley.

However, what she didn't see was that Fu Xiuming's eyes were actually unclear and difficult to understand at this moment.

Their figures gradually moved away on the stone steps of the sect, while the crisis of the sect was brewing quietly in the dark.

There was no conversation along the way, and Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan arrived at the Spiritual Medicine Valley smoothly.

After Ji Xiuzhu showed the token of the leader of the Shenyin Sect, the Valley Master received them warmly and expressed his willingness to do his best to help Qin Lan heal her injuries.

Under the careful treatment of the Valley Master, Qin Lan's physical condition gradually improved.

However, just as they were about to leave Spiritual Medicine Valley, an accident occurred.

A group of mysterious people suddenly attacked the Spiritual Medicine Valley. They had a clear purpose and headed straight for Qin Lan.

Ji Xiuzhu hurriedly took Qin Lan into a fierce battle with the enemy, but the enemy had a large number of people and strong strength, and Ji Xiuzhu gradually felt overwhelmed.

"Damn it, these people are all Mahayana masters!" Ji Xiuzhu couldn't help but curse.

Qin Lan was surprised when she heard this.

After all, it is rare to hear such shocking remarks from Ji Xiuzhu.

Ji Xiuzhu's face was solemn. She knew that she and Qin Lan were in an unprecedented crisis.

Every powerful person in the Mahayana realm is capable of shaking up an area. Now, a group of such powerful people appear at the same time, targeting Qin Lan. There must be a huge conspiracy behind this.

"Xiao Lanzi, you go first, I will hold them back!" Ji Xiuzhu said to Qin Lan decisively, and at the same time, he swung the sword in his hand, and a sharp sword energy rushed straight towards the enemy in front.

Although Qin Lan was injured, his expression was firm. He knew that he could not fall behind at this time: "Master, I will not leave. Let's fight together!"

Ji Xiuzhu frowned, she knew Qin Lan's character, once he made a decision, he would not change it. She could only try her best to protect him and look for a chance to break through.

"Okay, then we will fight side by side! But remember, if you encounter danger, you should run first. Your master is not afraid of these ants." Ji Xiuzhu shouted, the sword flashed, and he and Qin Lan stood back to back, forming an offensive and defensive formation.

The enemy's offensive was as surging as a tide. Although Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan were quite powerful, they also felt a lot of pressure facing so many powerful Mahayana masters.

Ji Xiuzhu's swordsmanship is exquisite, and each sword contains powerful spiritual power, while Qin Lan uses magic arrays to assist in battle. The two of them cooperate well and are able to deal with the enemy for a while.

However, as the battle continued, Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan's physical and spiritual strength were rapidly depleted. Ji Xiuzhu was anxious, she knew that this was not a solution and she had to find a breakthrough as soon as possible.

At this moment, the Valley Master suddenly appeared on the other side of the battlefield, holding a green bamboo stick in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Master Ji, I'm here to lend you a hand!"

Ji Xiuzhu's spirits lifted. With the addition of the Valley Master, the situation immediately improved. The Valley Master waved his bamboo stick, bringing out green rays of light, which complemented Ji Xiuzhu's sword energy and caused considerable trouble to the enemy.

Taking advantage of the moment when the enemy's offensive slowed down, Ji Xiuzhu shouted to Qin Lan, "Now is the time, let's go!"

The two immediately used their body skills and rushed towards the depths of the Spiritual Medicine Valley like two streams of light. Seeing this, the enemy immediately sent some people to chase them, but Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan were so fast that they soon left them behind.

Ji Xiuzhu ran all the way with Qin Lan until they came to a hidden cave, then stopped. She quickly set up several restrictions at the entrance of the cave, and then took Qin Lan into the depths of the cave.

"It should be safe here for the time being." Ji Xiuzhu said while panting. Her face was a little pale, obviously due to excessive consumption of spiritual energy.

Qin Lan looked at Ji Xiuzhu worriedly: "Master, are you okay?"

Ji Xiuzhu waved his hand: "I'm fine, I just consumed too much spiritual energy. We must recover our strength as soon as possible, and then find a way to leave here."

Qin Lan nodded, and the two began to meditate in the cave. Ji Xiuzhu took out some pills from his storage bag, and he and Qin Lan each took some to speed up recovery.

At this moment, there was a sudden violent vibration outside the cave, and it was obvious that the enemy had found this place. Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes.

"It seems that we can only fight to the death." Ji Xiuzhu stood up, and the sword in his hand emitted a faint light again.

Qin Lan clenched her fists, a look of determination flashed in her eyes: "Master, I am willing to go through life and death with you!"

The two stood side by side at the entrance of the cave, ready to face the upcoming life-and-death battle.

Outside, the enemy has set up a tight net, waiting to capture them as soon as they appear.

The fate of Ji Xiuzhu and Qin Lan seems to have reached the most critical moment.
