Three days later, Xia Feng and his four companions stopped ten miles away, and Qi Zong went there alone.
Not long after, Qi Zong appeared, supporting a frail lady. Her face was pale, but it was a sickly pale color.
Without saying anything, the few of them carefully placed the woman on the carriage. Ning Biqiao, in particular, was so nervous that her palms were sweating, and she stayed beside her carefully.
But when she wanted to support the woman, the woman's hand gently avoided her.
The seven of them returned to Nanyuan City. Long Yuanling took the woman's pulse first, while Qi Zong and Ning Biqiao looked at her nervously.
"She's deficient in both Qi and blood, and she's already frail, so that's why she's so weak.
But it doesn't matter. I'll prescribe a prescription, and if you take some pills to strengthen your body and replenish your vital energy, you'll be fine in half a month."
Both of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Since nothing happened, Xia Feng and his companions didn't stay here any longer and gave the space to Qi Zong and his mother.
Zhu Zi walked to the yard where he was with Xia Feng, and couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the scene just now.
"It's great that mother and son are reunited."
"After we finish our work here, we will go back to the Zhu family. Father, mother, and eldest brother's family are waiting for us there."
Zhu Zi held Xia Feng's hand with his backhand, "Okay!"
"I'm not bad either. I have a sister who always cares about me."
Then he thought of something and frowned, but didn't say anything.
But Xia Feng was still quite curious about the fact that the group of people who kidnapped Qi Zong's mother actually knew what she had.
With Long Yuanling's help and the careful care of Qi Zong and Ning Biqiao, Qi Zong's mother Hua Mengyue gradually recovered.
While having dinner together, Hua Mengyue, dressed in white, had a delicate demeanor, like a willow, but without appearing artificial. Just looking at her face, one could imagine how beautiful she was when she was young.
Hua Mengyue thanked everyone.
"I heard from Zong'er that it was thanks to you that I was able to come back. You are all Zong'er's good friends.
I'm just an ordinary woman, I don't have many talents, but my cooking skills are pretty good. When I get better, I will definitely cook a big meal to thank you."
Ning Biqiao said quietly, "Aunt, you are too polite. It's only natural to be friends."
But Hua Mengyue did not respond. She lowered her head and gently stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, then drank it slowly.
Long Yuanling gave her a mischievous look and smiled narrowly.
Ning Biqiao saw that her aunt was not looking at her, so she quickly glared at Long Yuanling, and then returned to her quiet and well-behaved appearance.
But things didn't go the way Ning Biqiao had expected.
That day, Long Yuanling ran over in a hurry and grabbed Xia Feng and Zhu Zi.
"Sister Zhu, Sister Zhu, something bad has happened."
Zhu Zi looked at her and said, "What's wrong with it? Tell me slowly."
Xia Feng handed her a cup of warm water. Long Yuanling drank it all in one gulp and put the cup on the table.
"I just went to deliver medicine to Aunt Hua and accidentally overheard something."
"I swear I didn't eavesdrop on purpose. They were just talking too loudly." Long Yuanling raised her hand and swore.
"Okay, okay, you accidentally eavesdropped. Speak slowly."
Long Yuanling calmed down her panic before saying, "Just now, Big Brother Qi went to Aunt Hua to confirm his biological father, but Aunt Hua didn't tell him. Finally, Big Brother Qi couldn't help but asked directly if he was Ning Xiuyong's son.
Although Aunt Hua looked unhappy, she still shook her head.
Zhu Zi wondered, "This is a good thing. We don't have to end up with lovers becoming siblings."
"But when Brother Qi told Aunt Hua that he wanted to marry Sister Ning, Aunt Hua flatly refused with a very firm attitude.
Later, when Brother Qi wanted to fight for it, Aunt Hua got angry.
I never thought that Aunt Hua, such a delicate and beautiful woman, would become a completely different person when she got angry."
He patted his chest as if afraid.
Seeing that Xia Feng and Zhu Zi didn't say anything, she couldn't help but ask, "Should I tell Sister Ning about this?"
"Speak." Xia Feng did not hesitate.
"It's up to her how to do it."
Ning Biqiao is not the type to drag her feet. They will tell her everything they know, but let them deal with emotional matters on their own.
After Ning Biqiao sat next to him and heard about this, she couldn't help but clench her fists.
"Thank you for letting me know. I will take good care of it."
After saying that, he grasped the whip at his waist.
Xia Feng didn’t know what happened afterwards, but there seemed to be a barrier between Qi Zong and Ning Biqiao. Their relationship became cold and they no longer communicated with each other.
Ning Biqiao was no longer as enthusiastic towards Aunt Hua as she was at the beginning, and returned to her usual state, looking free and easy, except that there was a dark shadow on the roof at night.
By August, the temperature had dropped slightly, but the relationship between Ning Biqiao and Qi Zong had reached freezing point.
In fact, the two had talked about getting married, but Aunt Hua stood in the way and refused to agree. Qi Zong had depended on his mother since he was a child and could not disobey his mother's orders.
Even though he felt that his mother had changed a lot in the past year, he still attributed it to the trauma she suffered during the year of captivity.
Qi Zong was caught between two sides, but Ning Biqiao was not an indecisive person. Since there was no solution to the problem, they decided to go their separate ways.
Ning Biqiao took the initiative to resign, "The Demon Cult has been almost wiped out, and I have important matters to attend to. I will not stay any longer and will leave first."
Ning Biqiao used the token left by her father to contact her old subordinates before setting out to hunt for treasure. She took advantage of the fact that Bai Shaoyuan's lineage had no subordinates and overthrew them in one fell swoop.
The Demon Cult is still in quite a mess right now. Her old subordinates had sent her a message before, asking her to go back and help run the Demon Cult. Since she had nothing to do now, she decided to go back and take a look.
Qi Zong wanted to speak to keep her, but Hua Mengyue spoke first.
"Zong'er and I have been away from home for a long time and will be back soon. If you have nothing to do, come and visit us. Auntie promised to cook a table of delicious food for you, but she has not been able to keep her promise.
When you come, your aunt will definitely treat you well."
Bai Yihan still had an expressionless face. "I want to go back to the old site of the Bai family and rebuild the Bai family."
On his back is the Bai family's ancestral long sword, the Silver Moon Sword. This sword is the Bai family's ancestral long sword. It was Bai Shaoyuan's fault before. He will use this sword to revive the Bai family.
All good things must come to an end, and friends may go through many things, but they will eventually part ways.
After the agreement was made, everyone bowed to each other and then went their separate ways.
Xia Feng, Zhu Zi, and Long Yuanling stood in front of the city gate, watching Bai Yihan ride away on his horse, galloping away until his back disappeared.
Qi Zong also drove the carriage and left with Hua Mengyue reluctantly. He did not see that figure until he left, and couldn't help but feel lost in his eyes.
Ning Biqiao appeared only after the carriage left.
Looking at the three people, he said, "If you have nothing to do, you can come to the Demon Cult as a guest."
Xia Feng thought about it and decided to visit the place where his sister Zhu Zi had lived for the past thirteen years. Long Yuanling didn't want to go back to Longfeng Valley yet. She thought of the rich medicinal materials in the Demon Cult's treasure house, so she couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
But Xia Feng saw that his sister Zhu Zi nodded first.
"I just wanted to go there and get my things back."
Speaking of which, she is the most familiar with the Demon Cult among the four, so she will lead the three of them forward.
