Yuji didn't expect Qin Yan to say such words to her. After a moment of hesitation, she put on a forced smile and said, "Hehe, I helped you so much today. Qin Yan, little brother, how do you think you should repay me?"

"What's there to be so proud of?" Lin Shiqi grumbled discontentedly beside them. "At most, it evens out the past, no one owes anyone anything. And you still want to be repaid?"

"I was just kidding." Hearing Lin Shiqi's words, Yuji smiled coquettishly and said, "As long as you can let me and Tian Ge follow you, that's all I ask for. Why would I expect anything else?"

"As long as you know," Lin Shiqi responded.

"By the way, where is Yitianchou?" Qin Yan asked, recalling that Yuji and Yitianchou had been together before, but now only Yuji was present.

Yuji's smile suddenly stiffened. "Oh, Tian Ge, his illness hasn't improved. I left him outside. How about... I take you to see him now?"

"Forget it, if you want to go, go by yourself. I don't want to see that annoying guy," Lin Shiqi said very unwillingly.

"But, there are so many monsters here. I'm a little scared to go alone..." Yuji grabbed Qin Yan's hand, looking at him pleadingly.

"Well, let's go then." After the recent events, Qin Yan felt it was hard to refuse Yuji.

"Great, let's go now!" Yuji said joyfully, pulling Qin Yan along.

"Hmph, always pretending and deceiving people. It's a shame you're not an actress." Lin Shiqi complained, but followed along with Dream Butterfly.

Before long, they arrived at a small mound on the plain. Next to the mound was a large pile of green grass. Yuji reached out and moved the grass aside, revealing a person hidden underneath. It was none other than Yitianchou.

"So you left him here. What's wrong with him? Is he sleeping?" Lin Shiqi saw Yitianchou lying next to the mound, eyes tightly shut, completely still, and spoke in this manner.

"Strange, when I left, Tian Ge was still awake," Yuji helped Yitianchou up from the ground, patted his face, and shook his body, but Yitianchou remained motionless with his eyes tightly shut, showing no response.

"What's going on, Tian Ge, wake up, what's wrong with you?" Yuji, seeing Yitianchou still not waking up, couldn't help but feel anxious. She continued to shake his body, calling out loudly, but no matter how much she called, Yitianchou remained unresponsive.

"Step aside, let me have a look," Dream Butterfly approached, bent down, and placed her hand on Yitianchou's head, using her psychic power to examine his condition. With a worried expression, Yuji watched silently from the side. After a while, Dream Butterfly said, "His condition has worsened again. His body is very weak now, I feel like he won't last much longer."

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

"What?" Yuji was immediately panicked. She knelt down in front of Dream Butterfly, a look of despair on her face, and pleaded, "Please, think of a way to save him. I'll listen to you from now on, I'm willing to do anything you ask, please..."

Dream Butterfly turned to look at Lin Shiqi and Qin Yan, seeking their opinions. Lin Shiqi turned her face away, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, while Qin Yan thought for a moment and nodded slowly.

Dream Butterfly took out a small cloth pouch from her body and opened it to reveal some leaves and grass inside.

"Crush these and feed them to him, it should help a bit," Dream Butterfly handed some leaves and grass from the pouch to Yuji, who quickly took them, chewed the leaves, spat them out after mashing them, and used her hands to feed them to Yitianchou.

"What? So, Sister Butterfly, you had planned to save this guy all along," Lin Shiqi remembered that Dream Butterfly had been collecting leaves and plants along the way in recent days. At that time, she didn't know why Dream Butterfly was collecting these, but now she understood that these things were for saving Yitianchou, for treating his illness.

"No, I didn't plan to save him," Dream Butterfly looked at Lin Shiqi, very surprised.

"If you didn't plan to save him, then why did you collect these leaves and herbs?" Lin Shiqi asked, even more surprised.

Smiling, Dream Butterfly said, "Although I didn't plan to save him, I also didn't plan not to save him. I did this just to prevent unexpected situations from arising in the future, like the one happening now."

Lin Shiqi couldn't help but sigh, "Sister Butterfly, you are really kind. This guy is so bad, he even led people to attack our academy before, causing the death of many of our people. If it weren't for him, our academy wouldn't have suffered such great losses. Don't you hate him?"

Suddenly, Dream Butterfly's expression became serious. "I believe that even without Yitianchou, our academy would have faced that disaster. Some things are inevitable, it just happened that he played that role."

"What do you mean? I don't quite understand," Lin Shiqi said.

Dream Butterfly explained, "What I mean is, as long as someone is not irredeemably evil, there's no need to exterminate them completely. We should still give them a chance."

Lin Shiqi made a thoughtful sound, thinking that Dream Butterfly's words were indeed profound.

*Cough, cough...* Suddenly, Yitianchou, who had been unconscious, let out a violent cough and woke up.

"Tian Ge, you're awake!" Yuji exclaimed with joy.

"Water, water..." Yitianchou weakly gasped.

"Tian Ge, you want water? But where can I get water from?" Yuji was puzzled, then suddenly she thought of something and turned to Lin Shiqi, pleading pitifully, "Shiqi, could you please get some water for Tian Ge..."

Lin Shiqi turned her face away, pretending not to hear Yuji's words. Yuji, in a desperate tone, said, "Please, just a little water will do. This should be very simple for you, right? Qin Yan, can you also help persuade her? Otherwise, I'll..."

Seeing Yuji's determined look, Lin Shiqi realized that she wouldn't give up until she got what she wanted. Reluctantly, she said, "I can't stand you, just pry open his mouth, make it a bit wider."

"Alright!" Yuji quickly pried open Yitianchou's mouth, while Lin Shiqi used her magical ability to gather oxygen and hydrogen elements from the air, condensing them into three fist-sized water balls. She then threw them into Yitianchou's mouth one by one. After drinking the water and taking the medicine, Yitianchou seemed to feel much better, a satisfied expression appearing on his face.

"Um, actually, there's one more thing I want to ask Shiqi to help with..." Yuji looked at Lin Shiqi again, speaking pitifully.

"Just say it, don't beat around the bush," Lin Shiqi said unkindly.

"I'm actually very thirsty too. I haven't been able to drink much water these days, so could you please get me some water as well, Shiqi?" Yuji said.

"Such a bother," Lin Shiqi sighed. With a wave of her hand, a soccer ball-sized water ball appeared out of thin air next to Yuji. Joy filled Yuji's face as she eagerly leaned in and greedily sucked the suspended water ball.
