In the early morning of the next day, when the sunlight came into the room, Bai Yunfei also opened his eyes slowly then breathed out softly. His expression looked much better now than before. It seemed he had recovered well.
He put the Fire-tipped Spear placed horizontally on his legs away into his interspatial ring, kneaded his fists and nodded in a rather satisfied manner: “The bowl of medicine Yuhe gave me really worked wonders. If I had only used my soulforce to make my body recover, it would have been half as effective at best. Judging from my current condition, it’ll take me three days at most to fully recover.”
Right at this moment, sounds of knocking rang out and Yuhe’s tender voice came in: “Brother Yunfei, have you woken up? I have brought breakfast for you.”
“Oh, I already got up. Just come in, Yuhe.”
The door was pushed open gently and Yuhe walked in holding a bowl of congee. She smiled at Bai Yunfei, put the bowl down on the table and said: “Are you feeling better now, brother Yunfei?”
Bai Yunfei shook his head smilingly, saying: “Mm, I’ve already got much better. In two more days, I should be able to fully recover. You don’t have to worry, Yuhe.”
“Oh, that’s good. You should eat some congee first then continue to treat your injuries. You can also go out for a stroll and breathe some fresh air.”
“Alright, thank you very much, Yuhe. If I need something, I will let you know.” Bai Yunfei nodded and said.
“Then… I won’t disturb your injury treatment anymore, brother Yunfei. I’ll bring you another meal at noon.”
After watching Chu Yuhe go away, Bai Yunfei ate the congee then sat back on the bed and cultivated his soulforce for some time. But he always felt somewhat uneasy and could not focus his mind. Frustrated, he had no choice but to decide to go for a stroll outside to see if he could relax his mind a bit.
After getting out of the room, he looked around. This was a small courtyard house consisting of five rooms. Outside the house, there was a small road paved with stone slabs. Both sides of the road were full of grass and flowers of various colors, and they were swaying gently in the wind. At first sight, they were rather pleasing to both the eye and the mind.
Just when Bai Yunfei wanted to walk out to have a look, a person turned into the courtyard from the right-hand side of the gate. As soon as they saw each other’s face, Bai Yunfei was totally surprised, but that person just smiled at him.
“Hong Yin!” Bai Yunfei said in amazement, “Why are you here?”
Hong Yin said laughingly: “What? I can’t be here?”
“Er, no, what I mean is, could it be you’re a member of the Green Willow School?” Bai Yunfei asked doubtfully.
“Is someone who stays in the Green Willow School necessarily a member of this school? You’re also staying here, aren’t you? Ha ha, I’ve only come here to stay for a few nights.”
Bai Yunfei looked at him seriously. Without avoiding his eyes, Hong Yin also looked at him smilingly. Bai Yunfei withdrew his eyes then said after pondering for some time: “Why did you help me like that? We should… should have no relationship with each other, right?”
“Ha ha, correct. Before yesterday, we didn’t even know about each other.” Hong Yin nodded, “But you don’t need to be suspicious either. At least I’ve got no bad intentions towards you, right?”
Seeing that there was still a doubtful look in Bai Yunfei’s eyes, Hong Yin could not help saying: “Alright, I can tell you more. I know that there’s some connection between you and the Fate School. Plus, senior Ge Yiyun personally looked for you. So I want to make friends with you. Perhaps later we’ll be able to help each other…”
