"Senior Brother Zhao is still on Gold Peak Mountain, so I returned first," Chu Hao said.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was greatly disappointed. What use was it for just Chu Hao to return? It had only been a little more than two months since he became a martial master, and if a real fight broke out, he could only be a burden they would need to protect.
Chu Hao didn't bother to defend himself and said, "I'll go see Senior Sister Fu first."
In fact, he had become an Inner Sect Disciple before Fu Xue. By rights, he could call Fu Xue a junior sister, because the seniority among Inner Sect Disciples was determined by the ranking list. Although his ranking hadn't changed, Fu Xue's ranking surely hadn't either, so naturally, she would be ranked after him.
But he had gotten used to calling her that, and he had no intention to change it.
He arrived at a side room and saw Fu Xue lying in bed wrapped in gauze, looking like a mummy.
Hiss, was she this seriously injured?
