"Big Bear, how is it?"

"Roar, roar!" Do you think I'd fail when I'm in charge? This time she's really in for it. Her injuries will probably take a long time to heal. Let's go back now. I reckon it won't be long before someone comes to rescue her!

"Alright! We can go back and report to the boss now."

"Okay! That's a wrap." After that, Big Bear pretended to step over the pit, scattering a bunch of dirt on Jiang Heng's head, making her look neither human nor ghost.

Several hours passed, and Zhao Heng still had no news of Jiang Heng. After questioning the female disciple who had gone to gather herbs with Jiang Heng, he learned that she had not returned with them. Worried, he went to his maternal grandfather to borrow men to go into the Enchanted Forest to rescue her. Ten people arrived in the forest and shouted loudly.

"Junior Sister Jiang, please reply if you are there!"

"Junior Sister Jiang!"

"Senior Sister Jiang!"

"Jiang Heng!" Everyone held up their flashlights and looked around, but no one answered them.

"Someone called me?" Jiang Heng was tending to her hands when she vaguely heard someone calling her. With difficulty, she took out a signal flare, lit it, and sent it into the air with a whoosh.

"Senior Brother Zhao, look! There's a signal from our Xuanfeng Sect over there. It must be Junior Sister Jiang responding to us," a disciple said excitedly to Zhao Heng after spotting the red signal in the sky.

"That's the way, everyone follow me!" Zhao Heng identified the direction, said to everyone, and then ran off in that direction first.

Because it was in a forest, the journey wasn't as smooth as walking on flat ground. It took Zhao Heng a full half hour to reach the location where the signal had been sent.

Using the light, he saw a light shining from a pit in the ground. He stopped running, slowly walked over, and stood at the entrance of the pit.

"Is that Junior Sister Jiang?"

"It's me, senior brother! Help me get up!" Jiang Heng shouted, looking up at the cave entrance.

"Junior sister, wait a moment, I'll come down and save you right away."

"Senior brother, I'm injured. I guess I'll have to wait for you to come down and take me up."

“Alright!” Zhao Heng replied.

"Senior Brother Zhao, Junior Sister Jiang, where are you?" someone called from not far behind.

"Come here quickly!"

"Senior Brother Zhao is here, let's hurry up." A man's voice rang out, and the sound of footsteps approached from afar.

"Senior brother, I'm so glad you're alright!"

"Junior Sister Jiang is down there, she's injured. Who among you will go down and bring her up?" Zhao Heng ordered his fellow disciples rudely.

“This… I’ll go!” After hesitating for a while, a burly male student stepped forward.

Without saying a word, the group took out a ladder, placed it down, and the male disciple followed them down.

"Junior Sister Jiang, are you alright?"

"My feet and hands are injured, I can't go up, I'm sorry to trouble you, senior brother!" With the help of the light, the man could see Jiang Heng's miserable state.

He walked over and carefully picked her up, tucking her under his armpits. The force was so tight it felt like he was going to crush Jiang Heng. It hurt her terribly, making her wince in pain.

"Please pull up the ladder, it's hard for me to climb with someone else in tow!"

"Okay, hold on tight!"

After he finished speaking, the ladder started to move, and it took a lot of effort to pull the two of them up. After the man got up, he put Jiang Heng down, collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, exhausted.

As soon as Zhao Heng saw Jiang Heng, he quickly walked over and carefully helped her up.

"Junior Sister Jiang, are you able to leave now?"

He shook his head. "My feet and hands are injured, and I can't walk."

"I'll carry you back!" Zhao Heng squatted down, and everyone quickly helped Jiang Heng onto his back. After that, Jiang Heng relaxed and fainted.

After arriving at Xuanfeng Sect, Zhao Heng was exhausted, covered in mud from Jiang Heng's body, and looked extremely disheveled.

"Find a few maids to wash her clean, and then ask the chief apothecary to come and take a look at her. I'm going to wash up first, and I'll come back in a bit." Unable to bear the filth on his body any longer, Zhao Heng finished speaking and quickly left.

Meanwhile, Suiyi was fast asleep, dreaming of meeting her dream partner, but Axing was wide awake because it had received a text message from its underlings in the forest.

"Boss, boss, we ran into that woman today, played a trick on her, and made her look really bad. Does that count as a credit for us?"

"Alright! From now on, whenever you encounter this woman, you must make her suffer. If you behave well, I will have my master refine some pills and send them to you. Of course, you must also intensify your training, and perhaps you will have a chance to go out in the future."

"Alright, boss, you're the best!" Cheers rang out from the other end, and Ah Xing grinned slyly. This was the first time in all these worlds that he had helped her complete a mission, and of course, he was absolutely the most loyal and hated anyone who bullied Sui Sui the most. Besides, he figured that after this world, Sui Sui would be going back, and when she regained her memories, it wouldn't be easy for her to hold a grudge against him for his mistakes, or he would be in big trouble.

Furthermore, there's something unusual about this world. Ziyou's aura seems familiar, but I don't know who it is. Could it be an acquaintance from the Upper Realm? Could it be…? His eyes suddenly widened. It's him!

This is really bad. If Sui Sui keeps messing with him, it'll be a classic case of "it's easy to tease a god, but hard to get rid of him." Ah Xing is worried that Sui Sui will get burned.

Well, let's take it one step at a time and try to give Sui Sui some pointers in secret.

On this day, the Rong family was holding a celebration banquet. Early in the morning, the inn where Suiyi and the others were staying was already decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and everyone was beaming with joy.

"Innkeeper, is this inn also owned by the Rong family?" Ziyou asked as he walked over.

"What do you know? The Rong family is a top-tier family in this area. Everyone gives them face. Besides, my family and their family are related." The shopkeeper rolled his eyes at Ziyou and turned back to continue instructing the shop assistants to work.

"This shopkeeper is really snobbish."

“That’s normal!” Sui Yi shrugged, walked to the table and sat down, watching the people coming and going in the inn.

"Should we go to the Rong family's restaurant? There's bound to be some excitement there!" Ziyou looked at Suiyi, blinked, and her eyes sparkled.

"This... alright!" For some reason, Sui Yi didn't really refuse his request. She tentatively probed him with some doubt, but his aura was definitely not familiar to her, nor was it Qi Muzhi. Yet, she had just been a little indulgent towards him!

Suiyi also wondered if she had fallen for someone else, but she felt uncomfortable whenever she tried to hold his hand, so she concluded that she was treating him like a younger brother!

As the two walked down the street, unsurprisingly, every household was hanging red ribbons and lanterns, creating a festive atmosphere. This was a strange phenomenon.

The two stood at the entrance of the Rong family's restaurant. The Rong family was standing on the platform on the second floor. The third young master of the Rong family no longer looked as pale and weak as he had been a few days ago. Instead, he looked rosy and the whole family was all smiles.
