T'was but a scratch
Hao Xuan had already reached the room Rukia had given him by the time Luz caught up.
"There you are, friend Jin!" he ran up to him but paused upon seeing the blood, "Are you okay? Should Luz call for healer?" he asked with some concern but Hao Xuan took his hand away to reveal a minor scar.
"No need, it was nothing but a scratch."
"Ohh, amazing!" he clapped in awe of his healing abilities, "It was close fight yes? Maybe next time you can win after getting a weapon!"
"Next time?" Hao Xuan glanced at him with a raised eyebrow, "I already won, and I don't need a weapon to fight someone like her. She is a fine warrior but lacks a proper combat technique. Perhaps she is a better cultivator," he mused while pushing the door open to walk in, leaving the shocked Luz behind.
"Y-You won?!" he repeated after breaking out of his daze.
"I did."
"B-But the blood-"
