Fortunately, Hu Tianqin had practiced Vajra Technique; otherwise, his fragile spine might not have been able to support his upper body after this battle.
Several disciples of the Emei Sect unfortunately fell into trouble, while the other girls, though terrified, managed to return home safely.
To the astonishment of the entire martial arts world, the one who fought against the White Feather Sect was none other than the infamous members of the Underworld Cult.
Shi Chuan's mission is to try his best to make the villainous BOSS reform.
This incident has earned him considerable goodwill among martial arts practitioners, bringing him one step closer to completing his mission.
After settling Hu Tianqin in, Yi Mu came out to see Shi Chuan and Yi Cong off, knowing they were leaving.
This was the first time Yi Mu had seen the mature version of Yi Cong. For some reason, he felt that Yi Cong's face looked somewhat familiar.
Shi Chuan, ever the friendly type, warmly put his arm around Yi Mu's shoulder and whispered to him, "Don't let our senior brother's fierce appearance fool you, he's actually quite pitiful."
Yi Cong carries a deep-seated blood feud on his shoulders; people in the martial arts world only know that he brutally murdered a family of several hundred people.
Little did he know that when he was very young, he had witnessed his entire family being brutally murdered.
The most satisfying form of revenge in the world is to repay kindness with kindness.
Shi Chuan did Yi Mu a great favor this time, and he should thank him.
“My friend is seriously injured and I have to take care of him. I will definitely visit him to express my gratitude another day.”
Shi Chuan, with a smug grin, nudged Yi Mu with his elbow: "That's not your friend, he's your boyfriend, isn't he?"
Yi Mu raised an eyebrow, unsure whether he saw everything as gay through a yaoi lens or if he was one of them.
Shi Chuan didn't want to talk any further; he was about to leave with Yi Cong.
"The Underworld Cult is moving to the Western Regions and won't be back for a while. I'll write to you as soon as I land. You must come and visit me."
Yi Mu smiled: "Definitely."
Shi Chuan was stunned by his smile, then sighed regretfully, "What a pity, she's already taken, otherwise I definitely..."
A deep male voice came from behind, carrying a warning: "Are you sure about what?"
Shi Chuan immediately laughed it off: "We'll definitely invite our junior brother for drinks. Once we're settled, we'll invite him to the Western Regions for drinks and meat."
As Yi Mu watched Yi Cong's face turn from black to pitch black, he quickly interrupted Shi Chuan.
"Then it's settled. I'll take my junior sister with me to the Western Regions to catch up with my two senior brothers."
The cold-faced senior brother simply nodded, then grabbed Shi Chuan by the back of the neck and lifted him onto the carriage.
Yi Mu had very sensitive ears, and not long after the carriage had driven off, he heard discordant sounds.
The second senior brother wasn't ashamed at all; he seemed to want the whole world to hear him, his voice high-pitched and loud.
Yi Mu felt incredibly ashamed to have such a senior brother.
Hu Tianqin returned to the Martial Alliance to recuperate. He was young and strong, and his recovery ability was fast. In less than a month, he was able to get out of bed and walk around.
Shao Shao and Zi Ruo went to a new school. They ate and lived together every day and even complained that they didn't have enough time together. They were so close that they were like one person.
The plague in the capital was eradicated, and Xia Yunxue took over the Imperial Medical Academy, where she discussed medical principles with the old scholars every day.
Judging from her letters, she won every time, and those old fogies were always amazed that she was so knowledgeable at such a young age.
A month later, the Sixth Prince got married, and his bride was none other than Xia Yunxue, the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family.
The Emperor personally went to the Prince's residence to officiate at the wedding.
Yi Mu and Hu Tianqin planned to go to the border region for a visit. They felt at ease leaving Shao Shao and Zi Ruo with the Martial Alliance, where they would be taken care of by dedicated personnel.
The desert scenery has always been something Yi Mu longed for.
Only in this era can one witness the rugged and magnificent beauty of "a lone plume of smoke rising straight from the desert, the setting sun round over the long river".
