The blood-soaked arena created by the Blessed Land Cave Heaven and Luo Qianqian also successfully led the two sects to advance, with Sky Inquiry Tower located at the top, so the results of their division were predictable.
To Luo Qianqian, who received the Promotion Book, it wasn’t surprising. She glanced at it twice before putting it away, paying no attention to the division’s closing ceremony, as she was more concerned about her brother.
They had a month of adjustnt ti before the finals, and not only their division but the other divisions also suffered heavy casualties.
But this month was not enough ti for Luo Qianqian and the others; instead, it felt a bit tense. Under the privilege of Mo, they were hurriedly taking Luo Shufan back to the Nine Heavens Pavilion.
Compared to the developnt of any sect, her brother’s life was more important.
"Don’t worry, we’re protecting his heart ridian, and he himself is nurturing his own ridians. It’s just the bones that are tricky, and there’s nothing much we can do."
Yan looked at Luo Qianqian’s worried face and hastily comforted her softly.
Luo Qianqian shook her head: "I was just thinking, if I hadn’t gone through these things, the family wouldn’t have followed here, and these things wouldn’t have happened." Her brother was severely injured and still unconscious, and her eldest brother needed nurturing as well.
If Luo Shufan’s injuries weren’t so severe before, he wouldn’t have been so worried, unable to rest peacefully.
Although Yan and Mo later said that things had stabilized, they knew that as long as Luo Shufan hadn’t woken up, he wasn’t out of danger. Also, seeing Luo Qianqian cultivating on Luo Shufan’s rooftop daily made them feel uneasy.
Yue Tingyu sighed, walked forward, and patted Luo Qianqian on the shoulder: "Silly child, if sothing happened to you, neither your brother nor we would be at peace. No matter what you do, the family wouldn’t bla you. We’re proud of you."
Even with the murderous aura around Luo Qianqian, which made Old Master Luo frown slightly, he still agreed with Yue Tingyu’s sentint.
After all, she was their only granddaughter.
"Indeed, you’re Second Uncle’s most pride-worthy niece," Luo Xisi nodded repeatedly, walked over to Luo Qianqian’s side, embraced her, and softly reassured her: "Our Luo Family is truly happy to have a child like you. Although it’s quite different from what we had envisioned, we’re living simply and happily now, aren’t we?"
"Exactly, Big Brother is right. Without you, we would still be at our respective posts, engaging in battles of wits and courage with old rivals. Now we’re much happier, with nieces and daughters-in-law, although Boss is still single," Luo Xihan laughed too.
Luo Yanhai, lying on the side, was speechless. So it’s all because he’s the bad brother now?
"But now... Brother and Big Brother are both injured, and the Nine Heavens Pavilion has provoked enemies. Compared to before, now we could encounter danger at any ti..." Luo Qianqian pursed her lips, looking as if she was about to cry, feeling really upset when looking at Luo Shufan, whose face remained pale under Yan’s protection.
"The dangers we faced before could also cost us our lives, but you didn’t know. Whether it was your Second Uncle’s business rivals or on a mission, every ti was filled with danger, and yet we had no choice. Even if the plotting was obvious, you still had to face it. Now it’s different. Now, we have the Nine Heavens Pavilion, and you all are here to protect us," Luo Xisi gently consoled her.
Looking at the tearful Luo Qianqian, everyone remained silent, fearing to worsen her sadness.
Since Luo Shufan fell into this state, her heart seed to fortify itself with thick walls, and not even He Wenyu could hear her true thoughts.
She barely spoke to anyone, except to the unconscious Luo Shufan to whom she felt full of guilt.
Returning to the Nine Heavens Pavilion, Luo Qianqian left others to rest and took Luo Shufan and Luo Yanhai away with Yan and Mo.
Upon receiving Tang Guo’s ssage, Luo Xinyue was anxiously waiting at ho.
"Dad, is the car ready?" When Luo Qianqian helped Luo Yanhai and Yan and Mo approached with a stretcher carrying Luo Shufan, Luo Xinyue was sowhat incredulous.
"Shufan..." Even though he knew his son was injured, it was shocking to see him like this.
"It’s ready, let’s go." Luo Xinyue didn’t have the ti to ask for details at the mont; the priority was to get Luo Shufan a thorough physical examination.
Elvis swiftly brought them to their Huaxia-affiliated private hospital, where the doctors were waiting at the entrance and imdiately took the two injured for check-ups, with Yan and Mo accompanying them, partly to prevent any actions conflicting with their treatnts, partly to learn.
Luo Qianqian stayed in the corridor with Luo Xinyue.
Luo Xinyue looked at Luo Qianqian for a while before asking, "What’s wrong? Do you want to get checked? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Luo Qianqian shook her head in silence, then stood up after a mont, facing her father, dropped to her knees with a thud on the cold, hard floor.
The crisp sound made it clear she hadn’t cushioned her descent but rather knelt directly.
"What are you doing!" Luo Xinyue quickly tried to pull her up but couldn’t shake her determined action.
"Dad, I’m sorry, I didn’t protect Brother well. Brother got hurt because of ..." She held back tears and slowly explained what had happened to Luo Shufan, just omitting the treatnt plan she had ’discussed’ with Yan and Mo. Her face was filled with unconcealed guilt and remorse. If it weren’t for her, Luo Shufan wouldn’t be in this situation.
Luo Xinyue fell silent, then gently pulled Luo Qianqian up: "Stand up, I’m not dead yet, why kneel to ?"
Elvis didn’t dare speak up, desperately trying to lower his presence.
Luo Qianqian stood, but her face still showed unmistakable guilt.
Pulling Luo Qianqian to sit, Luo Xinyue’s voice was deep yet soothing.
"Qhianqhian, Dad is glad you’re safe and glad your brother was able to protect you. Although he’s still in the operating room, Dad believes he’ll be okay." Gently placing his hand on the side of Luo Qianqian’s head, he drew her head towards his chest: "Since we have you, your grandpa and I should protect you two. Now your mom has soone to protect her, so we two should protect you. To us, regardless of your strength, you are our daughter and sister. It has nothing to do with your abilities and status; it’s a father’s and brother’s innate duty."
"Dad is also sad about your brother’s injury, but you have to trust your brother. As a mber of the Luo family, how could he be easily defeated?"
He couldn’t have said those words if he hadn’t sensed Luo Shufan’s stable breathing.
But with one child already in the operating room, what good would blaming another do?
Moreover, this wasn’t Luo Qianqian’s fault; it was just due to being outmatched.
With his head lowered, no one saw the determined glint in his eyes.
