The dream was fragmented, featuring many people, some she knew and some she didn't. She found it all fantastical and utterly absurd.

Xia Xiang was unconscious for three days before waking up and saw the same imperial physician again.

"What's wrong with me now?" Xia Xiang asked weakly, her face pale.

"You are injured. Are you feeling better?" the imperial physician asked, bowing.

"Where is my guard? My master is injured, isn't he supposed to be there to protect him?" Xia Xiang glared at the doctor and said angrily.

"Commander A and the Commander are also injured, downstairs," the imperial physician said.

"Useless," Xia Xiang muttered under her breath before continuing to recuperate.

She really didn't expect that Jiu Wu would actually risk coming, so he must have known about it.

Xia Xiang spent another week recuperating, and during this time, with Bing Xin taking care of her, she lived a very comfortable life. If she hadn't remembered her purpose, she would have truly become so happy that she didn't want to leave.

The constant warmth of the sun made her feel exceptionally comfortable, a gentle breeze caressed her face, and everything in the small garden was peaceful and serene.

Xia Xiang was suddenly enveloped in a shadow, and she smiled, almost swooning over her own intelligence.

"An'an, you're here~" Xia Xiang took off the hat covering her face and smiled brightly.

"Are you an idiot?!" Huai'an said, his face darkening as he launched into a tirade.

"We haven't seen each other for so long, is it appropriate for you to say that to me?" Xia Xiang raised her hand and placed a recliner next to him.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Huai'an asked, frowning as he sat on the recliner.

He had sensed that the array he had left behind had been destroyed, but he couldn't get away, so he didn't come over. He only rushed over after he had finally finished dealing with his own affairs.

"I didn't do anything," Xia Xiang said innocently. "They kidnapped me, it's not like I wanted to come here, why are you yelling at me!"

"Can you honestly say you didn't do it on purpose when you were hit by a bullet? Couldn't you have dodged it?" Huai'an slammed his hand on the table.

He's really busy. Not only does he need to recover his strength, but he also has to go back to do his previous work, protect this brat who keeps courting death, and guard against someone coming after him.

"I was being held hostage, how could I escape?!" Xia Xiang looked away.

"You!" Huai'an was furious. "If you dare to do anything stupid again, I'll make your childhood sweetheart die with you!"

After Huai'an finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.

Xia Xiang was left standing there completely bewildered. What the hell?! This guy is utterly unreasonable! Is he crazy?!

At this moment, she recalled the dream she had while she was unconscious—

She watched coldly as a bystander accused, doubted, and hurt by a group of people. These people were both men and women, but they were all so unreasonable; she wondered if they were even mentally sound. She really wanted to gag them all.

However, she shouldn't have experienced that much in her thirteen years of life; this must just be a nightmare.

Xia Xiang subconsciously turned the Dijiang Ring on her hand. Thanks to this ring, she was able to store all her previous memories, which prevented Ye Laozei from erasing her memories.

Perhaps the memories she saw were Huai'an's memories, after all, he wrote about the function of storing memories, so he should have used it.

While Xia Xiang was thinking, the guy casually sat down next to her.

"Old man, how's your recovery going?" Xia Xiang asked with some concern, looking at the guy's pale face.

"It's nothing," the guy said, slumping into a chair, looking even more seriously injured than before.

"Are you really alright?" Xia Xiang went over to check on him and found that his internal injuries had worsened. "Who did this? That damned old bastard?!"

The guy who called her "second uncle" slapped her hand away. His handsome face looked a little aggrieved, but he still advised her not to cause any trouble. "He took advantage of my injury and led a group to beat me up."

He said it to prevent Xia Xiang from acting impulsively. Their main task right now is not to punish the scumbag, and they can't afford to fall too far off with that good-for-nothing.

He wouldn't have been injured if that fool hadn't ambushed him with his numbers. Furthermore, he sensed people watching him from the shadows, so he couldn't retaliate on the spot.

"Fine! That scoundrel dared to slap the face of me, the new sect leader!" Xia Xiang said, pulling out the Magnolia Bow, swinging it forward, and transforming it into a long white jade staff. She then carried the staff towards Yehenara Sisi's direction—
