Mr. Shan Hai finally cald the surge of emotions in his heart. He had only ever accepted a few disciples in his lifeti. Although their Kung Fu skills were decent, they lacked the trials of the mortal world. He thought he was doing them a favor by letting them leave the mountain to gain experience. Instead, it led to their disappearance and deaths.
If he had known this outco, he would have sealed the mountain gate and never allowed them to go down.
In the end, he indirectly caused their deaths.
Though Bai Junjun and Li Wenli ntioned encountering the disciples in the Eastern Land, and how the disciples eventually helped them escape from the ruddy n’s crew,
the news of their whereabouts ended there.
Later, during the battles between the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince, and the subsequent conflict where the Second Prince borrowed the path for another war—how could those three foolish disciples, all physically disabled in so way, possibly survive?
Thus, though Mr. Shan Hai didn’t say it aloud, he had already accepted in his heart that his disciples were no longer alive.
Previously, he had been too occupied by the chaos of life to dwell on it. But now that things were tranquil, every ti he thought about it, it pained him greatly. Hence, he avoided stopping to reflect and kept himself busy making various tools, ensuring he had no ti to relive those regrets.
Who would have thought Bai Junjun would bring him hope once again today?
His disciples hadn’t died! What’s more, they were now aiding, perhaps, the only virtuous ruler in building his empire. In this way, they hadn’t shad the na of "Mohist."
It was at this mont that Yuwen Luanfei finally realized the physically impaired individuals in Yuwen Qi’s camp were, in fact, the disciples of this renowned Mohist master standing before him.
This ant... even that "Fool"... Yuwen Qi had extraordinary talent surrounding him.
So then this world...
Yuwen Luanfei cast a complicated glance at Bai Junjun and Li Wenli. These two were the chosen ones, blessed by the Celestial God, while Yuwen Qi had his fair share of fortune. Moreover, the relationships between these parties seed amicable.
Would the future bring forth a scene of friends turning on each other, eting on the battlefield as adversaries? At this thought, Yuwen Luanfei suddenly felt that the porridge in his bowl tasted less savory.
He dared not utter these thoughts aloud, though. Everyone was in high spirits, and voicing such a downhearted topic would surely earn him disdain and ridicule.
Li Wenli added, "We’ve handed off the affairs of His Majesty to the One-Ard Uncle. However, back then, the La Man Uncle ntioned that he had hidden the difficulties of farming within the Fire-Swallowing Tribe around here. We haven’t had ti to search, but we’ll head out later."
"No need to rush. You’ve just returned—rest and recuperate first," Mr. Shan Hai waved them off.
"Precisely. Even if it’s urgent, you can wait until after the two of you are married," Mr. Dan He agreed, nodding.
"It’s fine. Finding the book is a simple task—once it’s done, we can focus on the wedding with peace of mind. It works out well," Bai Junjun replied, unconcerned.
Li Wenli’s eyes curved into crescents as she echoed, "The lady is right! Besides, searching for the book feels more like a leisurely outing to us, whereas preparing for the wedding at ho is more exhausting."
As an engaged couple wanting to slack off, everyone around them felt both amused and exasperated.
Yet, they were the esteed figures—what else could everyone do but indulge them?
And so, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli successfully convinced everyone. After breakfast, they would set off to et the Fire-Swallowing Tribe’s Clan Leader and uncover the treasure’s whereabouts.
Speaking of which, they really had no idea where the treasures of the Fire-Swallowing Tribe were actually hidden.
When the Clan Leader heard their query, he froze for a mont and replied in stilted official speech, "We don’t have a treasure cave."
"?" Bai Junjun and Li Wenli opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
"That’s impossible! Where do you keep your treasures then?"
