However, despite being unsettled, the undeniable fact remains that Rosde managed to escape.
Moreover, under the intense backlash, Ye Qiu's severely injured body won't hold out much longer and could collapse at any moment.
And if he loses his combat abilities and Rosde and Dark double back with other Murphy Clan powerhouses to settle the score, Ye Qiu wouldn't be able to cope.
Though the possibility is slim, it's not impossible.
Therefore, Ye Qiu bit his tongue to keep himself awake, set Lin Chuxue down, untied the ropes binding her, and tore off the tape from her mouth.
"Lin Chuxue, are you okay?"
After finishing all this, Ye Qiu looked at Lin Chuxue with concern and a hint of guilt, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you got dragged into this."
"It's not your fault, I know you couldn't have predicted this would happen."
Although Lin Chuxue had been scared out of her mind, tears still visible on her face, she shook her head when looking at Ye Qiu, revealing a gentle expression and understandingly spoke to Ye Qiu.
Seeing Ye Qiu's severe injuries, Lin Chuxue couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
Earlier, Ye Qiu could have chosen not to take risks and abandoned her, which would have kept him safe and injury-free.
However, Ye Qiu didn't give up on her and risked his life, enduring severe injuries and nearly killed, to save her.
When the three Divine Realm powerhouses of the Murphy Clan simultaneously attacked her and Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu used all his strength to protect her, withstanding the attacks from the Divine Realm powerhouses with his body, Lin Chuxue's eyes reddened, filled with concern for Ye Qiu.
Faced with someone willing to risk their life to save her, how could Lin Chuxue blame Ye Qiu?
Just as Lin Chuxue pursed her lips, wanting to say thank you to Ye Qiu, she suddenly saw Ye Qiu's body tremble and slump against the nearby wall.
"Ye Qiu!!!"
Lin Chuxue was startled, her heart tightening, she hurried forward to support Ye Qiu and anxiously asked, "Ye Qiu, are you alright?"
"Don't worry about me, I can hold out a bit longer."
Ye Qiu gritted his teeth, forcing himself to say to Lin Chuxue, "We need to leave here first, it's still dangerous."
They must leave quickly; the injuries and backlash through his meridians meant Ye Qiu couldn't endure much longer.
"Ye Qiu, let me take you to the hospital; your injuries are too severe."
Being close to Ye Qiu, Lin Chuxue clearly saw Ye Qiu's severe injuries which would be fatal to an ordinary person, causing her to panic a bit.
At that moment, Lin Chuxue realized the risks Ye Qiu took to save her and felt a surge of emotion, her eyes turning red with the urge to cry.
"No, going to the hospital now would be dangerous."
With Lin Chuxue's help, Ye Qiu struggled to stand, biting his lip and refusing Lin Chuxue's suggestion.
Ye Qiu knew well that although he dealt with several Divine Realm powerhouses from the Murphy Clan, the troubles from the Ouyang Family weren't resolved yet.
At this time, the powerhouses from the Ouyang Family might already be searching Ying City to find Ye Qiu.
If he went to the hospital now, it would be akin to walking into a trap, and the Ouyang Family would quickly locate him and come after him!
In his current state, facing the Ouyang Family powerhouses would undoubtedly be a dead end.
Hence, he must not go to the hospital!!!
"But Ye Qiu, your injuries..."
Listening to Ye Qiu, Lin Chuxue still looked at him with worry.
"We'll leave here, and soon someone will come to get us."
Ye Qiu took a deep breath and said to Lin Chuxue.
He had anticipated the high risk and potential danger of the trip.
Thus, when he came, Ye Qiu had instructed Cat and the others to wait at a spot far from the factory warehouse, ready to assist after receiving a signal from Ye Qiu.
In hindsight, Ye Qiu's judgment proved wise.
...
Ye Qiu didn't know that shortly after he and Lin Chuxue left the factory warehouse, it became an unwelcome host to a group of uninvited guests.
The Ouyang Family had arrived!!!
Additionally, within this group from the Ouyang Family, two Divine Realm powerhouses led, accompanied by other elite Ouyang Family fighters!!!
Had Ye Qiu walked slower, they could very well have been in danger!!!
"Seems like we're late; they've already finished fighting."
Seeing the chaotic scene and many bodies yet to be dealt with, the leading powerhouse from the Ouyang Family frowned, feeling somewhat disappointed.
The battle between Divine Realm powerhouses had disturbed the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, alerting the Ouyang Family who suspected the presence of Ye Qiu in the fight!
Thus, the Ouyang Family rushed over at the first opportunity, but it seemed they'd arrived a step too late; the battle was already over, and everyone had left.
Otherwise, they could have come and reaped the harvest like fishermen taking advantage.
"Elder, inspection is complete."
Several disciples from the Ouyang Family completed their inspection and reported to the leading Ouyang powerhouse, "These bodies are all foreigners, and if our guesses are correct, they likely belong to the Murphy Clan."
"Three Divinity Transformation Human Realm powerhouses, all dead."
At this time, another Divine Realm powerhouse from the Ouyang Family, looking at the bodies of the Murphy Clan's Divine Realm powerhouses, gasped and solemnly said, "Moreover, the one who killed them appears to be the same person."
"So, Demon King Ye Qiu managed to kill so many Murphy Clan's top fighters, including three Divine Realm powerhouses, all by himself?!"
This left the leading Divine Realm powerhouse from the Ouyang Family incredulous, "Wasn't Ye Qiu severely injured by Ancestor Bai and Ancestor Wutian?"
