Seeing the group of people running for their lives, Xie Ying finally couldn't hold back her laughter. Seeing how the girl in front of her laughed like a child after a prank, Nangong Wan's heart warmed even more.

After returning to the house, Xie Ying poured herself a cup of water and drank it up, exhaling deeply.

"Wan, when did you become so formidable?"

Nangong Wan smiled at Xie Ying and said carelessly, "Didn't I tell you before? I met some strange people and they gave me some pointers for cultivation. I just remembered it from the past two days, so I worked hard at it."

"But you haven't recovered from your injuries in the past two days. How can you train diligently?"

"Xie Ying, I need to go out and live with you. Otherwise, I might implicate you." Nangong Wan changed the topic.

"That won't happen. Those people were taught a lesson and were also quite frightened. They won't come back to cause trouble for the time being." Xie Ying didn't want to make Nangong Wan move out because of this. She said that she would be friends for the rest of her life, so she couldn't just think about protecting herself.

Nangong Wan knew what Xie Ying was thinking, so she pulled her hand and said earnestly, "I'm not doing it just for this reason. I'll be going to the second round in two days, so I'll have to train non-stop during this period. If you can't rest well, don't mention it.

"But …"

"That's it, South General gave me some silver coins. I'll move out to an inn in the next two days, so that I can review and prepare for the exam. Also, I'm going to move into the academy after I finish the exam."

Xie Ying could not refuse Nangong Wan, so she had no choice but to agree.

Xie Ying had accompanied her to find the inn. That girl was used to saving money so she helped Nangong Wan negotiate with the shopkeeper and saved two meals' worth of money for her.

The inn was indeed much quieter. Nangong Wan would benefit from having no one to disturb her while she practiced.

After cleaning up, Nangong Wan got on the bed and sat down in a meditative posture. She meditated that she was still cultivating her inner force cultivation method as she circulated her inner force at the same time.

Nangong Wan initially thought that as long as she diligently trained, her previous martial arts would naturally return. She didn't expect that her body's foundation was too weak and couldn't store up much inner strength.

This was the weakness of the Upper Sky Realm. Nangong Wan had no other choice. No matter how unresigned she was, she had to admit that all the martial arts manuals in her head were basically wasted.

This body could only learn external techniques and had very little inner strength. It could deal with small characters, but if he were to meet an expert, he would probably die.

Feng Yaohua was proud of her peerless martial arts skills and her shield that allowed her to walk the world's martial arts. Now that she had no one to rely on, how could she avenge herself?

The teapot in front of her fell to the ground with a thud and shattered into pieces. Nangong Wan clenched her fists and trembled all over.

Lying on the bed, Nangong Wan stared blankly at the ceiling as if someone had pulled out her soul and body.

A feeling of helplessness came forth like mountains and seas, causing the road ahead to become confused once more.

She remembered the moment she closed her eyes, Feng Yaohua's eyes had been filled with hatred. At that time, blood flowed from the corner of her mouth as she lay on the Dragon Throne, dressed in a bright red dragon robe. The two of them stood in front of her and chatted happily, discussing how to ascend to the throne in the future.

Until the very last moment, she maintained the demeanor of an emperor, trying her best to preserve the dignity of the only female emperor in the entire Yunze Continent.

Borrowing a corpse to repay a soul, she only wanted revenge. And now, even fulfilling that wish had become extremely difficult.

Was the heavens playing tricks on her?

Nangong Wan didn't know when she fell asleep, but she had thought a lot that night. She consoled herself with the thought that maybe everything wasn't as bad as she thought. There was still a way to fix it.

He made an appointment with Xie Ying to go to Doctor Liu's clinic today. Xie Ying wanted to get medicine for her mother, but Nangong Wan needed her help to change the medicine for her wound.

Nangong Wan didn't hear what Xie Ying said clearly along the way. Her mind was as messy as a string that had been scratched by a cat, which made her lose all her concentration.

Xie Ying noticed the change in Nangong Wan. She asked her a few times but was ignored. After that, she didn't ask anymore. Although she was usually carefree, Xie Ying was still extremely careful.

Since Nangong Wan didn't want to say it, there must be a reason why she didn't want to say it.

When they arrived at the entrance of the infirmary, Doctor Liu personally welcomed the two of them in.

After instructing his disciple to pour two cups of tea, Doctor Liu told Xie Ying to go with her disciple to get medicine for her mother.

Nangong Wan turned her cup expressionlessly, looking at Doctor Liu hesitating in front of her out of the corner of her eyes. She looked like she didn't know what to say.

Nangong Wan naturally knew what he was trying to do. Before she cured South General of his poison, she had made a bet with Doctor Liu. If she cured South General, he would apologize to her and Nangong Xiuyi.

Nangong Wan didn't want to 'remind' him. She already understood Doctor Liu's personality. Since he wasn't an enemy, why should she force him?

After a while, Doctor Liu was about to speak, but he didn't. He just changed the topic.

"I wonder why this lady is so upset today, seeing that she has so many things on her mind?"

Doctor Liu was just an ordinary doctor, he could cure the pain, but he could not cure the heart disease.

As she was thinking about how to deal with it, Nangong Wan's heart suddenly lit up.

"Is Master Chen Feng in?"

"Lady Nangong has business with me?"

The sudden voice surprised Nangong Wan. She turned around and saw that it was Chen Feng.

His skill had indeed decreased by quite a bit. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been unaware of the sudden appearance of another person.

However, he couldn't even feel Chen Feng's presence. How did she feel the appearance of that man the night before yesterday?

According to their auras, the man's kung fu was higher than Chen Feng's.

Or could it be that he was actually trying to make her aware of his existence?

Nangong Wan frowned as her curiosity towards the mysterious man increased.

"Lady Nangong seems to be a little distracted. If it's not convenient for me to say, I will take my leave."

After a while, when Nangong Wan didn't say anything, Chen Feng put away his fan and pretended that he was going to leave.

Nangong Wan smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, I was rude." "Actually, I want to ask Young Master Chen Feng if there is a way to recuperate someone whose foundation is damaged, so that such a person can continue practicing martial arts."

Chen Feng opened his fan and shook it slowly: "There are two ways. The first way is to eat the Qi Nurturing Secret Medicine that only the royal families of different countries are qualified to get. The other way is to cultivate the Qi Nurturing Secret Art to strengthen the body and strengthen the meridians."
