Elder Lin flew over to Lin Lee and landed gently on the ground. "Hold still," he instructed. Then, he raised his hand and patted Lin Lee's chest, releasing a warm, green spiritual aura that flowed directly into the wound. The sword slash healed immediately, closing up completely. At the same time, the minor cracks on the jade in the Great Elder's hand disappeared, leaving it looking smooth and flawless.
The Great Elder put away the restored jade. Meanwhile, Elder Yao, the middle-aged man with the calm face, flew down to start handling the bodies of the two disciples.
The Great Elder turned back to look at Lin Lee. "Let's go," he said, his voice firm and steady. "You are not permitted to leave the sect until we finish this investigation."
