In the car, Little Tang seemed deep in thought. After a long while, she could not hold it in anymore and asked, “Young mistress, why did you not beg that… that senior just now? He was so incredible. He certainly would not lie and could surely cure your illness.”

Little Tang and her young mistress had depended on each other since they were young. She hoped more than anyone else that Wang Qinghan could have a healthy body. All this while, she had seen the young mistress suffer pain and torment, often constantly in pain till she might as well have been dead. However, Little Tang could only watch helplessly. Only the young mistress herself could experience such a feeling.

All these years, she and the young mistress had traveled to countless places and found countless famous doctors. But none of them could cure the young mistress’s symptoms.

Now they had finally encountered someone who could cure the young mistress’s illness but had watched him go. She was somewhat dissatisfied.

“Little Tang, why should he treat my illness? I have no reason to request him to treat me.” Wang Qinghan shook her head. Although she had given Mo Wen a ride, Mo Wen had saved her life. She still owed Mo Wen a debt of gratitude. How could she have the nerve to beg Mo Wen to treat her illness? It was as Mo Wen had said. Everything had a cause and effect. No one could tell what fate had in store.

“But… Young mistress, we can give him remuneration. Our Zhongyu Sect can grant all of his requests,” Little Tang said, somewhat dissatisfied as she bit down on her lip.

“Foolish! What can we give an expert like him? Most likely even if we gave him the entire Zhongyu Sect, he would not necessarily want it,” Wang Qinghan sighed gently. She would not beg Mo Wen to treat her illness. One of the reasons was that she had no reason to make this request of him. The other was that she knew that she could not provide such remuneration.

It was similar to an ordinary person not being able to wish for the most famous miracle physician in the world to treat their illness.

“Young mistress, then are we just going to give up? After so many years, you know how much pain and suffering this illness has brought you. Now that we finally have some hope, you are just going to give up like that?” Little Tang said choking, her eyes red. The young mistress’s words made her speechless. Zhongyu Sect indeed did not have anything that could catch the eye of such a person as the youth they had just met. But would they give up their only chance just because of this?

“Let fate run its course. Didn’t he also say that if we are fated to meet again, he will heal me? If we do not, then my life is destined to be such.”

Wang Qinghan continued. “Let’s go. Rumor has it that not only is Lin Qing talented in doing business, she is also a genius in ancient martial arts. I have wanted to meet her for a long time.”

…

Strolling in the campus and watching the students passing by, Mo Wen felt relaxed. This place could always give him a sense of peace.

“Mo Wen, stop right there.” To Mo Wen’s surprise, just as he walked through the school gate, a shout sounded from behind him. A girl dashed towards Mo Wen with her hands on her hips. She seemed ill-tempered. This girl was none other than Wang Xiaofei, who always seemed to be in a rush.

“What do you want?” Mo Wen stared at Wang Xiaofei, baffled. Since when had he messed with her?

“Where have you been all this while?” Wang Xiaofei’s eyes were wide open. She looked as though she couldn’t wait to give Mo Wen a kicking.

“I don’t need to tell you where I have been,” Mo Wen said plainly.

“You…” Wang Xiaofei was so angry that she would kick this b*stard to death if she could. She shouted, “Do you know that Xiaoyou has cried a few times while looking for you everywhere? You have been gone for more than a month. There was no news from you at all. I can see that you are enjoying yourself quite a bit every day. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?”

“How do you know that I am enjoying myself every day?” Mo Wen stared at this girl, speechless. Does she have a delusional disorder?

“If you weren’t enjoying yourself outside, why would you be away for more than a month and why would there have been no news of you at all? I thought you had been seduced by some random woman and would never come back. Why? Were you hurt out there? Is that why you remembered Xiaoyou and thought of coming back?” Wang Xiaofei looked at Mo Wen with a look of disdain.

“Have you been watching too many soap operas? Stop gibbering. Where is Xiaoyou?” Mo Wen was not interested in entertaining this ill-tempered girl.

“Are you asking me where she is? Is Xiaoyou your woman or my woman?” Wang Xiaofei said with a cold laugh.

Wang Xiaofei had no idea what backing Mo Wen had to actually be able to rent an independent living compound in Hua Xia University. Now, Qin Xiaoyou had completely treated that place as her home with Mo Wen. No matter how Wang Xiaofei tried to persuade her, she would not leave. Qin Xiaoyou would rather stay in that living compound alone.

Mo Wen did not want to lower himself to Wang Xiaofei’s level. With a dash, he disappeared from his original spot. Nobody saw how he disappeared. Nobody wondered why he disappeared too. It was as though Mo Wen had never existed. Everyone continued on with their lives.

Only Wang Xiaofei rubbed her eyes. If it was not because she had just scolded Mo Wen and she knew that Mo Wen was a very powerful ancient martial art practitioner, even she would doubt whether she was just hallucinating.

Mo Wen used his connection with Old Man Wei to rent an independent living compound on campus. If nothing had happened, Qin Xiaoyou would most likely still be staying there.

As soon as he reached the entrance of the courtyard, Mo Wen could sense Qin Xiaoyou’s aura. His mouth curled to form a smile.

In the living compound, the main entrance was shut. A lady dressed in a white dress was wielding an ancient sword. She was devoted to her practice of the sword technique.

Her steps and techniques were very reserved. Outside the courtyard, everything seemed to be normal. Nothing could be detected. Yet inside the courtyard, the wind was howling and her killing intent was prowling around. A chilly killing intent enveloped the courtyard. The surrounding temperature dropped by tens of degrees. It was as cold as mid-winter.

However, the bizarre thing was that the plants in the courtyard were unhurt. They still bloomed beautifully and stood against the wind.

“Excellent sword technique. I never expected that your improvement would be so great. I can actually sense a sharp Qi, unique to swordsmen, from you.”

A person had suddenly appeared in the courtyard. He seemed to have popped out of thin air, causing no disturbance. When the sword Qi encountered him, it naturally avoided him.

The figure of the lady who was practicing shook. The long sword fell from her hand and slid to the ground. She turned her head expectantly and a layer of mist covered her brilliant eyes.

“Was everything okay during my absence?”

Mo Wen pulled the lady into his embrace gently and whispered in her ear. He had never expected to be away for more than a month. Initially, he thought that he would be back after a week.

“I missed you.”

A pair of hands wrapped themselves around Mo Wen’s waist and held him tightly, as though they were afraid that the person before their eyes would disappear. There was no resentment or anger. Just three simple words that expressed how much she had missed him.

“Have you been practicing hard these few days?” Mo Wen said softly. In reality, he did not need to ask to know that this woman had been practicing very hard. He had only been gone for more than a month and she had already reached the intermediate stage Qi Nucleation Realm. Although he had left her a lot of medicinal pills, her own effort was also an essential factor.

“When you weren’t around, only practice would allow me not to think of you. Hence, I have been practicing every day, all the time.”

Qin Xiaoyou buried her head in Mo Wen’s embrace. She did not know when she had become more and more reliant on Mo Wen, not wanting to leave his side for one second. But she also knew that it was impossible for Mo Wen to be at her side forever. Since she had chosen him, she had to adapt to and respect his life.

“What has happened recently? Have you encountered any trouble?” Mo Wen asked.

He understood Qin Xiaoyou very well. No matter how much she missed him, it would have been impossible for her to search for him so urgently. Something must have happened. Moreover, he had only been gone for more than a month. It had not been very long, and he had given her instructions before he had left. Although it had been much longer than his estimated time, it was long enough to make her so anxious.

Qin Xiaoyou immediately fell silent. She held on tightly to Mo Wen’s clothes, not saying a word for a while.

“What exactly has happened?” Mo Wen raised his eyebrows.

“Sorry, many things have happened while you were gone.” Qin Xiaoyou lowered her head and did not dare to look at Mo Wen.

“What has happened?” Mo Wen felt a bad premonition well up inside.

“I’ll tell you in detail.”

Qin Xiaoyou gently sighed and led Mo Wen by the hand as she sat down on a chair. After contemplating for a while, she began to talk. “I don’t know where to begin, so I’ll tell you everything one by one. Firstly, Yun Xiaoman has been missing for two months.”

“What?” Mo Wen was stunned.

“Two months ago, Yun Xiaoman went missing. However, I only found this out a little while ago,” Qin Xiaoyou said.

“What exactly has happened?” Mo Wen frowned. Yun Xiaoman had actually gone missing, and two months ago at that. When he had returned to the university from the Dafang Sect, Yun Xiaoman had already disappeared. No wonder during that time, Yun Xiaoman had not come looking for him.

“It’s a long story. The gist of it is that last time, on the day before you came back to the university from the Dafang Sect, Yun Xiaoman had gone missing. However, back then we all did not know about it. We don’t know why, but the Yun Clan actually kept this news under wraps and only leveraged on various networks in secret to find Yun Xiaoman’s whereabouts.”

“Around twenty days ago, Yun Xiaoman’s mother finally could not take it anymore. She came to the school, wanting to ask you some questions. Only then did I find out about this matter.”

It turned out that after Yun Xiaoman disappeared, the Yun Clan had kept this disappearance under wraps. They did not go use the media to find Yun Xiaoman, instead going through military channels and intelligence networks to search for Yun Xiaoman’s whereabouts. Hence, very few people knew about this matter.

However, after more than a month, they did not have any news about Yun Xiaoman. It was as though she had disappeared from the face of the earth. Finally, Yun Xiaoman’s mother could not take it and came to the university to find Mo Wen. It was because before Yun Xiaoman disappeared, she had always come to find Mo Wen in Hua Xia University. Her mother had hoped that she could get some useful information from Mo Wen.

However, she had not found Mo Wen and had only found Qin Xiaoyou.

“Is that all?” Mo Wen said. He felt that Qin Xiaoyou was being hesitant.

“Also, Xu Qianqian has disappeared,” Qin Xiaoyou continued and said.

“Huh?” Upon hearing this, Mo Wen was stunned. Why were so many people disappearing recently? Xu Qianqian had actually also disappeared. What else was going on here?

“Five days ago, Xu Qianqian disappeared without reason. Her father came looking for me, hoping he could get your help,” Qin Xiaoyou said.

“Aside from that, is there anything else?” Mo Wen stared at Qin Xiaoyou. He kept feeling that Qin Xiaoyou still had not told him everything. It was because the gaze that she gave him seemed to be dodging him. There certainly was something more serious that she was not telling him.
