Mu Yun explained everything to Huo Wu from outside. Huo Wu was on Lin Feng's bed. Lin Feng was in front her. Huo Wu's cheeks were bright red. She was extremely nervous and holding the silver needle firmly. If she touched the wrong vein, she could kill him!
She slowly and carefully started the acupuncture treatment. Mu Yun was extremely worried. Huo Wu was extremely worried, too. It took a whole day for Huo Wu to control the strength and pure Qi properly. There were silver needles everywhere on Lin Feng's legs. Huo Wu noticed that the needles turned black and white, like zebras.
"Throw the needles away and get him dressed," said Mu Yun as Huo Wu started to panic. Huo Wu nodded and threw the poisoned needles away. She studied Lin Feng's face; his cheeks were a bit red. She walked closer to the bed with the greatest care. Then she closed her eyes and dressed him.
After she finished, she took a deep breath, but she was also happy. After what had just happened, she felt closer to him.
Huo Wu opened the curtain and slowly walked away from the bed. She blushed and lowered her head. She didn't dare say anything. Mu Yun smiled indifferently. She took the box back and put it back in her ring. She looked at Huo Wu and Jing Xiao Yue kindly. "He'll be fine for six months. When he wakes up, you'll need to take care of him.
"You don't need to tell him that I came. I'm off now," said Mu Yun. She got ready to leave calmly.
Jing Xiao Yue didn't prevent Mu Yun from leaving. In the end, she sighed sadly. Sometimes, love was difficult.
Huo Wu watched Mu Yun. Even though Mu Yun looked like a celestial being, indifferent and noble, Huo Wu, as a woman, understood how Mu Yun really felt; she was unhappy and sad.
Huo Wu really wanted to know Lin Feng and Mu Yun's story. She really wanted to ask Jing Xiao Yue about it, but she didn't know how, so she didn't dare. She didn't want Jing Xiao Yue, who was a kind of aunt to her, to judge her or misunderstand her.

Lin Feng woke up, opening his eyes and seeing the familiar room. He looked at Jing Xiao Yue and Huo Wu. Then he sat up. He knew that he had been poisoned, and he knew the poison came from the pill.
"Di Shu! Di Shu! You caused me harm even in death! I have no choice but to admit your plot was impressive…" Lin Feng said, scratching his underbelly. It felt painful. He pulled up his robe and saw the small holes in his skin made by the needles.
Lin Feng inhaled deeply and suddenly, his expression changing. He whispered, "She… came here?"
"Lin Feng, you're awake?" asked Huo Wu and Jing Xiao Yue. They looked overjoyed.
Jing Xiao Yue opened the room, calling to Mu Chen and Lin Zhe Tian. Apart from them, there was another young man outside. He was a meter ninety, wearing white clothes, with a huge sword on his back. He looked pure. He also entered the room.
"Ye Chen, your teacher is over there," said Jing Xiao Yue. She was surprised to see Ye Chen. He had come back from Xue Yue. She was impressed; Ye Chen still cared about his teacher!
Ye Chen nodded. He quickly walked over to Lin Feng's bed, knelt down and shouted, "Teacher!"
Lin Feng raised his head and looked at Ye Chen. He had grown up. He wasn't a baby anymore. He had become a tall and strong man.
"Rise, hurry up, rise," Lin Feng said in a trembling voice. But he had already recovered. Lin Feng stretched out his hand and dragged Ye Chen up. Ye Chen was on one side, Huo Wu was on the other.
"How are you?" asked Lin Feng, smiling at Ye Chen. He was happy to see his great disciple. Even though he never taught him anything, Ye Chen worked hard, he had never given up.
Lin Feng had two disciples; his great disciple was in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, he had the strength of the Half-Godly Emperor layer. The second one, Fu Chen, was in the Supranatural Region's Holy Shrine and had the strength of the top of the Holy Spirit Emperor layer. Lin Feng had already made plans; he would help his disciples break through to the Godly Emperor Layer soon. Then they'd naturally continue progressing without any issue.
"Teacher, I want to go to the great world," said Ye Chen. His eyes twinkled.
The first time Lin Feng had gone to the Continent of the Gods, they were all too weak. Now, Ye Chen had the strength of the Half-Godly Emperor level, people wouldn't bully him too easily even if he went to the Continent of the Gods. He dreamt of becoming like his teacher. He wanted to become a truly strong cultivator and help his teacher.
Lin Feng knew that Ye Chen was extremely determined, so he nodded. He accepted. Even if Ye Chen hadn't asked him that, he would have taken Ye Chen with him to the Continent of the Gods.
"Little Lin Feng, how's your injury? Will you be alright?" asked Mu Chen. He was still worried.
Lin Feng smiled dismissively, "Thank you, brother. I'm fine."
"Alright, alright, good. Have a good rest for a few days. Champion University is recruiting students. Initially, the two ancestors wanted to discuss everything with you, but you were in a coma because of the poison so I spoke in your name. I hope you're not angry at me," Mu Chen smiled.
Lin Feng was speechless. He smiled wryly and said nothing. How could he blame Mu Chen for anything?
"Let's go out." Jing Xiao Yue noticed that even though Lin Feng was smiling, he looked strange and a little bit sad. Jing Xiao Yue knew that he had probably noticed that Mu Yun had come, so he felt sad.
Mu Chen noticed it as well. Therefore, he waved and had everyone leave. Only Huo Wu and Lin Feng were left in the room. Initially, Ye Chen wanted to talk to his teacher, but he wasn't stupid; it wasn't the right time.
When everybody left the room, Lin Feng sighed and looked at Huo Wu, who looked a bit unhappy. Lin Feng smiled and grabbed her small and cold hand. Huo Wu was surprised, and looked at him. He looked at her gently and softly. Huo Wu couldn't help, but blush and lower her head.
"Huo Wu, why didn't you read the letter back in the days when I gave it to you?" Lin Feng felt guilty and sad. He hadn't handled the situation properly.
Huo Wu sighed sorrowfully. She didn't know any more…
"Alright, let bygones be bygones," Lin Feng said when he saw Huo Wu didn't feel like talking about it.
"Yes," Huo Wu nodded. She didn't want to think about those sad times. They were together now. Therefore, they didn't need to talk about the past as if it were too late. They needed to get closer and closer. Lin Feng would also treat her better with time.
"Did… she come here?" asked Lin Feng after remaining silent for a few minutes.
Huo Wu was surprised and puzzled. She remembered what Mu Yun had said; she had told them not to tell Lin Feng she had come, but since Lin Feng already knew, Huo Wu couldn't lie to him.
"Yes, her name was Mu Yun. She helped restrict the poison in your body, but she also said we had to completely get rid of the poison within six months," said Huo Wu, lowering her head. She felt uncomfortable, but that was all.
Lin Feng nodded. He didn't ask anything else.
"Huo Wu, during the acupuncture treatment, who was in charge of jabbing me with the needles?"
Lin Feng suddenly thought of the issue. He seemed nervous.
Huo Wu blushed, her heart sped up. Lin Feng noticed she looked embarrassed, so he also understood who had jabbed him with the acupuncture needles. He was relieved. He would have been extremely worried if Mu Yun had done it!
