Yang Wei left the prison area shortly after.


    He had threatened and scared the person enough to relieve some of his stress.


    ''Hmph, just because we''re a third-rate sect doesn''t mean you can bully us as you please,'' Yang Wei sneered inwardly.


    Sometimeter, Yang Wei arrived at the resting area reserved for Zhu Wenqian.


    Knocking on the door slightly, Yang Wei asked, "Zhu Wenqian, have you finished your meal yet?"


    "Y-Yes, I-I have long finished the meal." Zhu Wenqian replied from the other side of the door.


    However, Yang Wei found it suspicious that she would be stuttering when all he did was ask a simple question.


    "Don''t tell me…" Yang Wei muttered in disbelief as he quickly turned the doorknob.


    The moment he opened the door, the first thing he saw was just like what he predicted in his mind.


    She has been secretly training while he was away once again.


    "ZHU WENQIAN!"


    Yang Wei shouted as he took multiple steps forward and red at her.


    Zhu Wenqian paused her movement as sweats began trickling down her forehead.


    "What did I tell you before I left?" Yang Wei asked in an angry tone.


    Zhu Wenqian remained silent. Any words she uttered would just further enrage Yang Wei more, so she decided to be smart for once and not reply.


    Seeing her silent response, Yang Wei sighed as he took a seat down and nced at the ceiling.


    "Haaa I already missed the Feather Wind Sect," Yang Wei mumbled.


    Although he had wanted to get stronger by exploring the Misty Forest, everything had gone astray the moment he stepped foot in it.


    From being forced to group up with the notorious poison sect into dealing with the traitors in the sect. There was never a break for him at all.


    "Why is everything so troublesome?" Yang Weiined.


    Meanwhile, Zhu Wenqian held a guilty look as she nced at the dejected Yang Wei.


    She swallowed some of her saliva nervously as she slowly walked toward Yang Wei.


    "Y-Yang Wei, I-I''m sorry but as a Saint Race member. It''s extremely hard to remain idle and not train to be stronger," Zhu Wenqian exined, hoping that Yang Wei would understand her behavior.


    Yang Wei nced at her and smiled lightly. "I''m not mad that you want to train to be stronger."


    "I''m mad that you may be harming yourself more by trying to train harder. The heat poison that is seeping inside your body is still there and I feared that your training might agitate it."


    Zhu Wenqian nodded her head.


    "I know my body very well and it was just that one time that the heat poison managed to damage me." She said cheerfully.


    Yang Wei shook his head. "Since you have said it like that already, who am I to stop you from training?"


    After that, Yang Wei stood up and grabbed the empty te as he decided to leave her alone.


    He wasn''t her caretaker or anything. So if she wished to over fatigue herself then there''s nothing else he can do.


    Zhu Wenqian''s face turned ashen white when she saw the disappointment on Yang Wei''s face.


    "W-Wait a minute, Yang Wei," She called out.


    Yang Wei paused his movement briefly as he turned around and nced at her.


    "What is it, Zhu Wenqian?" He asked.


    "I-If I decided to rest and not train… will you apany me and spend some time with me?" Zhu Wenqian asked coyly.


    "It''s boring to stay alone in bed to rest. This is why I decided to train since I have nothing else to do." She added.


    "So it''s because you had nothing to do that you decided to train your techniques instead?"


    "That''s right… I''m left all alone now, and I don''t even know if my family members are still alive somewhere or they could possibly be captured right now and tortured."


    Zhu Wenqian had her head lowered down at the moment.


    Yang Wei could feel sadness lingering in her heart despite the arrogant and haughty behavior she has been acting the past few days.


    He breathed a soft sigh as he stored the empty te into his storage ring and walked toward Zhu Wenqian.


    Afterward, Yang Wei embraced Zhu Wenqian and patted her back softly.


    "It''s alright, Zhu Wenqian. Whether your family members are still alive or not, thest thing they wished for would be for you to stay healthy and lively." Yang Wei said as heforted her feelings.


    And he continued, "I have also lost my parents at a very young age due to my naivety and sense of justice. However, they have never med me and instead wished for my well-being."


    Meanwhile, Zhu Wenqian raised an eyebrow as she nced at Yang Wei in disbelief.


    "H-How did you lose your parents?" She asked stutteringly.


    Asking about their close-one death was always a sensitive topic, and she didn''t wish to offend Yang Wei by asking it.


    However, Yang Wei merely smiled as he proceeded to spend the next few hours exining about his past.


    "What? A lowly trash Qi Condensation realm dares to act so haughtily?" Zhu Wenqian became rmed when she heard about the culprit that caused the tragedy for Yang Wei.


    After all, in her eyes, a Qi Condensation realm was nothing more than an ant that she can easily step on without trying.


    "Have you searched for that culprit and gotten your revenge yet?" Zhu Wenqian enquired.


    Yang Wei showed a bitter smile as he shook his head.


    "No- ever since I''ve be a cultivator, I have been searching everywhere for him, but it was like he had vanished from the world. No one had heard of nor knew about him at all." Yang Wei said.


    "Do you need my help to search when we leave this goddamn area?" Zhu Wenqian suggested. "I may not seem like it, but I am a great investigator."


    "Sure, you may help me out, but you must first take care of your health and recover.. I don''t want another guilt added to my list that I had caused another person''s death."
