The Fallen Consort

The next day, Linyu and Haoran announced that Qianru was fully healed. There were three kinds of emotions from the three.

Qianru was happy that she would be able to be useful again to her Master. Linyu was enthusiastic that he no longer have to feel Haoran's roots next to his. Feeling their roots intertwined makes him shiver. Haoran was sad that he no longer could take advantage of the situation.

Regardless of their emotions, Yi Ling could only sigh. Being their master, she could fully comprehend their emotions.

When this news came, Yi Ling handed some medicine books to Linyu. It was the copies of the books from her study room. "Take this to Li Zhuan. I sent him to the Palace. Tell Xiang He to gather patients in his Kingdom with elusive diseases. This book should help Li Zhuan on how to deal with them. This would be his test, to see if he is capable enough to become my Disciple. Tell Li Zhuan to follow Xiang He's commands since Xiang He will become his Senior brother if he becomes my disciple too. Also, tell Xiang He to come here if he has time. I need to test his elements before I leave the sect again."

Her leaving the sect was not new to them. Muxin had already informed them before Yi Ling came back, that chances of her leaving again were high. Yi Ling needed to go out and gain experience. Only then would she be able to unlock her seals and become stronger.

"Yes, Master." Linyu accepted the books and left.

Seeing Linyu leave, Haoran was sad again. He felt that he was left behind by his husband. Seeing Haoran's fluctuating emotions, Yi Ling handed him some books too. "Take this, I noticed that you had interests in Alchemy. Study these books and learn from them. If you wish your King to acknowledge you, show it to him that you are capable to stand beside him."

Although she wasn't sure if this would make Linyu get closer to Haoran, it would give Haoran some motivation. Rather than constantly tailing Linyu around. She heard how frustrated it was for Linyu.

Listening to his Master's advice, Haoran's eyes lit up. That's right! He had to show to his King that he was capable enough to stand by his side! Only then he would acknowledge him to become his husband! He instantly accepted the books, bowed to his master and left. Excited to read them. His master's words were true. Seeing his master concoct medicines and concoctions, it ignited interest in him.

When Haoran left, Yi Ling could only shake her head. That guy was easy to read and easy to manipulate. They were inside the Main Hall. When the two left, 4 people were left inside the Hall.

Yi Ling then turned towards Minzhe. Seeing his mother looked at him, he felt that the inevitable was going to happen. He had the feeling that his mother won't allow him to follow her this time. So had had prepare himself that he would stay inside the Sect.

Unfortunately, her next words weren't what he was expecting. "Son, I need you to go to the Jin Kingdom and bring your father here."

"What?" Minzhe's eyes widen. Go to the Jin Kingdom?

"Muxin and I had already talked about it. We needed his help. Although I said to King Jin before that the next time we will meet would be in heaven, that would still take a long time. Muxin said that his body will be clueless and confused when you show up. So just give him the excuse that I am looking for him. The last time we met, he was eager to know who I was. Now that I have some of my memories back, it is only right to bring him to our side."

"But mother! I am not close to him! How will I be able to convince him fully? Making him leave his Kingdom, he would likely think that I have ill intentions!" Minzhe was left with mixed emotions. Although his family was back together, he didn't like King Jin's attitude. He preferred his father as Muxin than King Jin. Muxin was the epitome of a Deity before he had been infected with the dark energy in Diyu. Since entering Diyu, Muxin became the Dark King Jin. His attitude became harsh and rough, making it harder to deal with him.

"Whatever... Just tell him that his wife needs him. It's up to you how to convince him. I doubt he'll believe it if you don't tell him the truth. Sooner or later, he needs to know and understand what happened anyways. Even if you hated it, King Jin is your real father while Muxin is only a part of his memories. Just think of it that your father is sick in the brain. Your mother will have to find time to fix it later." Yi Ling shrugged.

Everyone in the room and Muxin who was listening was astounded, especially Muxin. His brain was sick? What kind of logic is that? Are you telling me that your husband is dumb or crazy at the moment? Muxin's mouth twitched at the thought. Yet, he never voiced out his thoughts.

Minzhe then laughed. "Hahahaha... Hear that father? Mother says your brain is sick! Hahahaha." He held his stomach, as it was hurting from laughing.

Hearing his son's words, Muxin clenched his fist. Just wait till I get out you ungrateful mongrel! I will show you who's brain is sick!

Yi Ling then bit her lips. How did she forget that Muxin was listening? Did she have a death wish? She coughs out dryly, trying to get everyone's attention.

"So Qianru, ready to practice with me?" Yi Ling had been waiting for a long time. She wanted to learn how to use the Divine Harmony Bow. All these years, she was only able to use a dagger to protect herself.

"Yes, master!" Qianru stood up and smiled widely!
