After saying this, Nangong Ling'er said no more. At this moment, she knew that hiding and accumulating strength was the right thing to do. Thinking of the Blood Lotus Sect and Zhang Chengfeng, she made a decision immediately.

...

On the other side, Bai Yao, who had already escaped with Xiao Yuhan, arrived at a dilapidated ancient temple dozens of miles west of the capital. Under the dusty Buddha statue, Bai Yao unbuttoned Xiao Yuhan's clothes, carefully applied medicine and bandaged her wounds, and used her internal energy to treat her.

After a long while, Xiao Yuhan, who had been unconscious, slowly woke up. He was dazed and silent for a long time, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes.

Xiao Yuhan got up to leave, and Bai Yao wanted to follow, but he stopped her with a shout, "Stop! From today onwards, don't follow me."

"Master... Master? Why? Your injuries haven't healed yet."

Xiao Yuhan glared at Bai Yao angrily, "From now on, I am no longer your master, Bai Yao, and you are no longer a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yao froze, as if struck by lightning. Her lips trembled slightly, and she immediately knelt on the ground. "Master, why? What did Yao'er do wrong?"

"What did I do wrong? Your birth was a mistake, Bai Yao. Becoming your master was a mistake. I was selfish and pathetic. I knew you were the source of everything, yet I still kept you by my side. I was terrified of death back then. I should have fought with the system. I should have sent you away. The Heavenly Sword Sect wouldn't have fallen to this state, and our Sect Leader wouldn't be dead! Do you understand? It's all because of you. Get out! From today onward, never say you have anything to do with our Heavenly Sword Sect again!"

At this moment, Bai Yao's face turned deathly pale. Without the Heavenly Sword Sect, her master was the only light in her heart, but at this moment, she never expected her master to say such words. Moreover, Wen Xiao had said before that everything was because of her.

Now that Xiao Yuhan has said this, even if Bai Yao is stupid, she can still figure it out from the various things that have happened to her over the years.

She had considered the worst possible outcome, but she never imagined that her master would hate her so much.

She knelt in the snow, trembling uncontrollably. The snow in front of her melted with her hot tears, and her mind went blank.

Xiao Yuhan left without looking back. He knew that the only way to get rid of Bai Yao at this moment was to say harsh words. But as soon as the harsh words left his mouth, he regretted it. However, he still did not hesitate and headed west.

He wanted to get to know Yu Hui better.

He carefully considered his chances of winning and realized he didn't have many. His only trump card was the sword Su Yan had lent him. He would find Yu Hui's body before the seal was broken and kill him with one sword. Since Su Yan said he could break the seal of the Heavenly Demon Abyss with one sword, he might be able to kill Yu Hui, who was still under seal, today as well.

Over time, Xiao Yuhan gradually realized that Bai Yao must be a crucial figure. Since there is a seal in the Heavenly Demon Abyss, Bai Yao might be the key to breaking the seal. After much deliberation, he decided to drive Bai Yao away. Now, as long as she doesn't encounter a master like Wen Xiao, who can harm her?

She still has places to go, whether it's the Northern Plains or the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall. She also has the Nine-Tailed Fox by her side. In any case, Xiao Yuhan should be more worried about her than her.

Ye Qingyun's death deeply moved Xiao Yuhan. If it was a matter of brotherly affection, Xiao Yuhan felt that it was Ye Qingyun's affection for his junior brother, not for himself. If it was a matter of no affection, after living in Xiao Yuhan's place for so many years, he had truly felt Ye Qingyun's love and care for his junior brother.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yuhan never had the chance to apologize again, nor did he ever have the chance to tell Ye Qingyun in person that he was not Xiao Yuhan. But at this moment, he was always thinking about doing something.

Regardless of whether it all started because of Bai Yao or because of my arrival, this world shouldn't have been like this, and that kind-hearted Ye Qingyun shouldn't have died so absurdly at Wen Xiao's hands.

He clearly wanted to do well, wanted to make the Heavenly Sword Sect famous, wanted to protect the legacy left by his ancestor, clearly had never killed anyone unjustly in his life, and clearly had been kind to everyone.

Senior brother often said that a person with great capacity for tolerance and a person without desires is invincible. Now, when Xiao Yuhan thinks back, he is indeed such a person. It's just a pity that he will never see him again.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan became even more determined and rushed to the Heavenly Demon Abyss despite her injuries.

...

Meanwhile, Bai Yao, abandoned by Xiao Yuhan, was filled with fear. In truth, her life wasn't just about Xiao Yuhan, but she felt guilty and remorseful. She believed that everything was because of her, but she didn't know what to do or what to do. She aimlessly returned to the vicinity of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

She wanted to apologize, and he wanted to apologize, but neither knew how.

But just as he arrived near the Heavenly Sword Sect, he suddenly saw his junior uncle, Nangong Ling'er. Upon meeting her, he learned that Nangong Ling'er was worried about Liu Jiantang, so after going to the Blood Lotus Sect, she found some experts to accompany her and secretly came to the vicinity of the Heavenly Sword Sect to spy on the situation.

Nangong Ling'er didn't expect to meet Bai Yao here. After exchanging words for a while, Nangong Ling'er realized something and temporarily canceled her plan to infiltrate the Heavenly Sword Sect to investigate.

Afterwards, Bai Yao was taken back to the headquarters of the Blood Lotus Sect. Here, Bai Yao met Shen Huairu and her fellow disciples. But today, she suddenly felt a little unfamiliar. In fact, no one blamed her. Most people didn't even know what Wen Xiao said, and no one thought that everything was caused by Bai Yao.

But when Bai Yao thought that way, she always felt that everyone was secretly blaming her.

Nangong Ling'er led her to Shen Huairu's room, and the three of them were in the same room.
