Chapter 373 Fulfilling the Promise
Far away in the Central Region, Xiao He was anxiously waiting for news. He didn't know if his sister had been rescued, or if the evil cultivators would discover anything amiss. Just then, the jade pendant at his waist lit up.

Xiao He immersed his consciousness into it, his eyes darkened, and then he left his rented courtyard and went to the largest teahouse in the city.

Xiao He was in the most remote city in the Central Region. Even the largest teahouse there only had two floors. He went to the private room he had booked with ease and waited quietly for the person who had sent the message to ask him to come here.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a figure appeared opposite Xiao He.

Xiao He cupped his hands and said:
"Young master, what new mission do you have for me?"

The person opposite had their entire face covered by a hood, making it impossible to tell whether they were male or female. However, judging from their address, they were a male cultivator. The person spoke in a calm and even voice:
"Your sister Xiao Lei has been murdered."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao He abruptly stood up from his chair and said in a somewhat cold voice:
"You promised me you wouldn't hurt my sister, that's why I was willing to let you do whatever you wanted. Now that my sister is gone, our deal is null and void. I won't let you get away with this!"

By the end, Xiao He's face was filled with murderous intent, like a wolf ready to devour its prey.

The person on the other end spoke in a calm and unwavering voice:
"You've mistaken the person you're hating. It wasn't us who killed your sister, but a Daoist cultivator. The organization simply sent your sister to a secret realm under our control to better protect her and allow her to cultivate peacefully in the spiritually rich environment."

Unfortunately, their reaction was too swift. Shortly after your sister entered the secret realm, a Daoist cultivator stormed in, killing your sister and all of our people. They even destroyed the secret realm itself, leaving no trace.

Xiao He said coldly:
"You said all of this, why should I believe you?"

"You can investigate for yourself. The disappearance of the secret realm is no small matter. I hope you don't hate the wrong person or seek revenge on the wrong person."

Daoist cultivators have always been so hypocritical. They say it's worth sacrificing one or two people for the sake of the entire cultivation world, but why don't they sacrifice their own loved ones, disciples, and followers? It's truly laughable.

After saying that, he tossed a jade slip to Xiao He and said:
"This is your new mission. Whether you do it or not is up to you. We won't lose anything without you, but without our help, you might not even be able to find someone to take revenge on."

After doing all this, the person slowly disappeared.

Xiao He caught the jade slip, his expression somewhat complicated. He probed the jade slip with his divine sense, and after reading its contents, his eyes narrowed. He then put the jade slip into his storage ring. He really did need to "investigate" it.

Haoran Sect Back Mountain

Yunxi took the unconscious Xiao Lei to see Ancestor Haoyi and recounted the mission, but she emphasized very seriously:

“Ancestor, I did not destroy the secret realm. That secret realm has been ravaged beyond recognition by the evil cultivators. When I fought them in the secret realm, the evil puppets they created self-destructed their golden cores. Although they did not hurt me, they severely damaged the secret realm and accelerated its closure.”

Therefore, shortly after I left the secret realm, that fixed secret realm disappeared.

Grand Ancestor Haoyi had already received news of the disappearance of the Su family's secret realm, so she was not surprised. She accepted Yunxi's explanation well. Anyway, the deed was done, as long as no one knew that the disappearance of the secret realm was related to the Haoran Sect.

If Yunxi knew that her ancestor had this kind of mentality, she would definitely give him a "six".

Yunxi realized that Ancestor Haoyi didn't intend to blame her, so she asked:
"Ancestor, how should Xiao Lei be settled?"

"Send her to recover first, then have her contact Xiao He as soon as possible. You've already rescued her, so you've fulfilled your promise. Now it's up to him to keep his word."

"Yes, old man."

Yunxi lured Xiao Lei to see Venerable Haoqing this time with the aim of using the Clear Liquid Pool to heal Xiao Lei's injuries.

Because Xiao Lei's identity had to be kept secret, she couldn't obtain the token to enter the Clear Liquid Pool through the Disciple Hall, so she chose to come directly through the back door.

When Yunxi saw Venerable Haoqing guarding the entrance to the Clear Liquid Pool, she smiled and cupped her hands in greeting:
"Venerable Haoqing, I have a favor to ask." Haoqing took a sip of spiritual wine and asked with a smile:
"What's the matter?"

"I need to borrow a pool to heal my wounds."

Haoqing raised an eyebrow and said:
"I see you are not injured."

Yun Xi laughed and said:

"It was my mission target who was injured and almost turned into an evil puppet by the evil cultivator. Although I removed the evil energy with my strange fire, her meridians were severely damaged and she has fallen into a coma."

"I still need her assistance with my upcoming tasks, so I have no choice but to swallow my pride and ask Your Excellency for a favor."

After saying that, he smiled and presented the warrant from Ancestor Haoyi.

Haoqing didn't question Haoyi's test of Yunxi. After confirming the token was genuine, he waved his sleeve to open the barrier and said:
“Go in and choose for yourself. If you want to keep a low profile, don’t choose the pool in the very center. You’d better stay on the side.”

"Yes, I understand."

Yunxi immediately smiled and agreed, then entered the Clear Liquid Pool, chose the pool at the very edge, and with a flick of her sleeve, placed the unconscious Xiao Lei into it.

Xiao Lei's body was slowly submerged in the pool water, and the pure spiritual energy in the pool water slowly seeped into her body, beginning to nourish her damaged meridians.

Yunxi took out her futon and sat cross-legged by the pool. While keeping an eye on Xiao Lei's condition, she recorded the findings of this mission into a blank jade slip in her hand, and then sent the jade slip into the "Honeycomb" by making a hand seal.

Yu Ling found the information sent by Yun Xi among a pile of jade slips. After quickly scanning it with her divine sense, she put the jade slip into a separate compartment and then continued to browse the remaining message jade slips.

Seven days later, Xiao Lei finally woke up slowly. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a familiar face. She blinked, trying to make sure that what she was seeing was real.

Upon discovering that Xiao Lei had awakened, Yun Xi put away the jade slip in her hand and said:
"How does it feel?"

Xiao Lei then realized she was soaking in a pool, but the pain in her body had mostly subsided. She sat up, supporting herself against the pool wall, and said:
"I'm much better. You...you're Wei Yunxi?"

"It is I."

Yunxi nodded, explaining that because she used her own face within the sect, Xiao Lei had no idea that it was Yunxi who had saved her.

"The senior who saved me"

"She had other tasks, so she entrusted you to me. In a way, we have some history. Fate is sometimes very mysterious."

Xiao Lei smiled self-deprecatingly after hearing this. Yes, she never expected things to develop to this point. Who can really explain the grudges and grievances?
Seeing that Xiao Lei had lowered her head, Yun Xi waved her sleeve and led her out of the pool, then took her back to Lingxue Peak.

When Xiao Lei came to her senses, she was already standing in a quaint little courtyard.

"This is the mountain where I cultivate. You can rest assured to heal and cultivate here. I have also prepared your cultivation resources in advance."

However, you should first send a message to your brother, telling him you are safe, and it's best not to arouse suspicion from the evil practitioners.

After saying that, he tossed a storage bag to Xiao Lei.
