From Wang You, Lin Yan learned that Madam Yang had already left. However, before she departed, Wang You had given her some pills.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Wang You!" Wang You didn't have to bother with Madam Yang, but he still offered some pills. She would remember this favor.
Although the matters here were considered concluded, they hadn't been out for long, and they had all gained some benefits while Wang You had received none. They all felt a little embarrassed about it.
"No need for that. If I need you in the future, won't you accompany me out?" Wang You was very open-minded.
Not to mention that Lin Yan needed to bring Cong Er back to the sect, they also needed to report back to their sects about the emergence of this trial ground.
"Then it's settled. We should head back as soon as possible," Qing Feng made a decision.
"I also need to report back to my sect about the situation here. It might be difficult to come over here in the future," Wang You also said.
"Then let's part ways here. I'll take Cong Er to see if I can find his mother." Lin Yan looked at the sensible little boy, not wanting him to lose his mother after losing his father.
After everyone agreed, they parted ways at the village entrance.
Lin Yan took Cong Er to his home to pack some things. Lin Yan gave Cong Er a storage bag and told him to pack his belongings.
He likely wouldn't be returning here in the future. Although his mother had packed his luggage, as a child, he wouldn't be able to carry much, so many things were left behind.
Everyone had things they found hard to part with, so Lin Yan let Cong Er pack those items himself.
After Cong Er had finished packing, Lin Yan took him away from there. On the way, she also sent news of this trial ground back to her sect.
Although this trial ground wouldn't exist for long, it could still accommodate a batch of disciples in the short term.
Upon receiving this news, Sect Leader He, along with several elders and disciples, rushed towards this area. He had to get there quickly and make preparations so that he could gain more benefits in negotiations with other sects.
"Fairy, are we going to look for mother?" On a carriage, Cong Er looked at Lin Yan and asked hesitantly.
"Didn't you say you wanted to be my disciple? Why are you still calling me Fairy?" Lin Yan reached out and stroked his head.
"Then should I call you Master?" Cong Er asked, tilting his little head.
"You can call me that for now. After we find your mother, and you formally become a disciple of my Ling Xiao Sword Sect in front of her, then it will be official."
"Thank you, Master!" Knowing that they were going to find his mother, Cong Er was very happy. He knew that this fairy in front of him was very powerful, more powerful than anyone he knew, so she could definitely help him find his mother.
The rain poured down. She truly never expected to see her husband again. However, her once handsome and elegant husband was now unrecognizable.
She didn't understand how they, as a couple, had offended these people to be treated in such a manner.
But she was still fortunate. Fortunate that her husband was still alive. As long as he was alive, everything would get better.
In the dungeon, she recognized the person chained to the rack, clad in blood-soaked clothes and with disheveled hair, as her husband.
She hurried over, killed the guards, and rushed to his side. Her fingers trembled as she placed them under his nose. Feeling a faint breath, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
It was only then that she realized she had been holding her breath since the moment she saw her husband.
Without waking the person in front of her, she took out several pills from the sachet she always kept close and placed them in his mouth.
As soon as the pills touched his lips, he immediately woke up. However, the resentful gaze instantly softened upon seeing the person before him.
"Yuan Niang, you..." He remembered where he was and was filled with worry.
"Hush! Eat these pills first, and I'll take you out!" Madam Yang brought the pills closer to his mouth again.
He obeyed and opened his mouth, holding the pills within. The pills melted instantly, then transformed into a warm current that flowed into his limbs.
In just a moment, he felt the miraculous effect of these pills.
Madam Yang lovingly caressed his face, tears welling up in her eyes. It was alright; she had finally found him. As long as he was alive, that was all that mattered!
