Chapter 1406: Protect To The Death
In the void, a purple seed dropped into the Ninth Secluded Spirit Spring, falling into a deep sleep.
Lu Zhixi clutched her injured face and neck, trying to stand up, but the severe pain made her groan.
She channeled spiritual power to heal the wound on her face, but instead of getting better, the wound festered more and more. It even felt itchy.
Lu Zhixi was terrified. When she saw that Xi Yue was safe and sound, the fear and anxiety in her heart turned into deep resentment.
“Elder Qi, go and tear Xi Yue into pieces right now!”
The sharp sound pierced the eardrums of everyone in the confinement s.p.a.ce.
Elder Qi just got rid of the entanglement of Qian Dazhuang and the others, then he jumped into the air and stabbed straight at Xi Yue.
“Brother Xi Yue——!!”
Zhang Yi yelled and rushed toward Xi Yue without thinking.
With the piercing sound, Elder Qi’s sword pierced Zhang Yi’s back, and the tip of the sword pierced through Zhang Yi’s chest. It was just right next to Hexi’s dantian.
Just a little bit, just a little bit, Xi Yue would die.
Zhang Yi held on tightly to the sword that pierced his body, preventing it from hurting Xi Yue in the slightest.
Then he turned around abruptly and threw a dark red centipede in his hand at Elder Qi who was relaxed.
Elder Qi was caught off guard and was bitten on the nose by the centipede. He shouted and let go of the sword in his hand.
Zhang Yi spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground. He smiled: Brother Xi Yue, I can finally do something for you!
“Little Yi——!!” Zhang Chong uttered a heart-piercing cry, then he rushed toward Elder Qi frantically.
Seeing them fighting, Xi Yue narrowly escaped death again.
Lu Zhixi was trembling all over with anger. She wanted to get up, but she felt that her face and neck were getting more and more itchy. She could only sternly shout at the pioneer branch students beside her, “Whoever kills Xi Yue, I will let you become Academy Student Council’s deputy president!”
The students of the pioneer branch looked at each other, and many showed angry expressions of disapproval. But some people’s eyes lit up when they heard the deputy president. They approached Xi Yue one by one.
“Everyone, we must defend even to the death. We must defend until Xi Yue succeeds in advancing!”
“Yeah, we will defend Xi Yue to the death!”
The Meridians Stage students of Huang Medical Branch as well as the students from other branches who had just been rescued by Xi Yue surrounded Xi Yue.
They were all covered in wounds, but no one was willing to take a step back.
The elders of the Doctors a.s.sociation originally thought that killing the defenseless Xi Yue would be an easy task, but the b.l.o.o.d.y and resolute scene shocked everyone.
No matter how shocked they were, they would not allow Xi Yue to live past today!
Elder Zhang raised his hand, and a huge ball of lightning slowly condensed and compressed in his palm. Once it was released, it would be a powerful force that would destroy everything.

Unlike the chaos outside, the void fell into a deathly silence at this time.
Little Egg and Little Golden Dragon were originally ready to rush out the moment Lu Zhixi started.
But suddenly, a powerful force swept the entire Sumeru Void.
Little Egg and the others only felt indescribably comfortable around them as if their limbs were full of strength.
But the eyelids became extremely heavy, then they were on the verge of fainting.
