Next came the second needle, and then the third. In no time, Liu Bailong's body was covered with silver needles. Taking advantage of the acupuncture treatment time, Xiao Yifei also went out to buy some herbs. After all, relying solely on acupuncture, the external injuries cannot fully heal; some medicinal assistance is necessary.

After sprinkling the herbs on the wounds, Xiao Yifei pulled out the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles one by one. At this time, Liu Bailong's complexion looked much better. Although he hadn't awakened, he was out of danger. After doing all this, Xiao Yifei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The events that just happened were incredibly thrilling, something Xiao Yifei definitely doesn't want to happen a second time.

Looking at Liu Bailong on the bed, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but exhale deeply. An incident like that, Xiao Yifei absolutely doesn't want to experience again. Moreover, if it wasn't for Uncle Liu being beside him, Xiao Yifei might indeed have met his end here. Thinking of these, cold sweat broke out on Xiao Yifei's back.

Now that everything has completely ended, Xiao Yifei began to recall the situation at that time. While thinking about it, Xiao Yifei suddenly remembered the man holding the knife. The knife was very short, and the handle was engraved with characters not from Huaxia. This indicates that the knife was from another country.

Since the knife is from another country, it further explains that the owner of the knife is also from another country. Thinking of this, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but recall the man's appearance. Because everything happened so suddenly, Xiao Yifei's mind was in chaos, and he didn't have time to consider so many things. Now, upon reflection, he realized that the man indeed had an exotic charm.

Xiao Yifei has now confirmed that the man sent to assassinate him is definitely not from Huaxia, at least from a neighboring country. Initially, Xiao Yifei suspected that this person was sent by Ci Xin, but thinking it through, Xiao Yifei dismissed this notion.

However, how did these foreigners know his whereabouts, and most importantly, what is their motive for killing him? Xiao Yifei was slightly puzzled. After all, he had never dealt with foreigners, so there was no reason for any hatred.

But the sudden assassination indeed illustrated that someone from another country wanted to kill Xiao Yifei. Thinking of this, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but shiver. For those sent to assassinate him, if there's a first, there will certainly be a second. Eventually, they would keep coming, and when that time comes, it will be quite troublesome.

Besides, the place where Xiao Yifei is now located is remote, giving invaders more opportunities. Hence, Xiao Yifei planned to immediately leave once Uncle Liu recovers a bit. Instinct told Xiao Yifei that this place cannot be stayed in for too long.

The war is still raging, but the situation is not optimistic. Successive defeats have greatly diminished the morale of Huaxia's troop, especially in areas where Golden Elixir experts couldn't attend to. Even with Golden Elixir masters present, those battle lines could not force the enemy back.

Besides Qianxi, other places with Golden Elixir experts also reached a stalemate. Qianxi's side has been resolved, so they returned to Beijing. Qianxi's triumphant return is the only comforting news for everyone since the General Command Bureau has mostly been hearing the phrase, "Our troops are defeated!"

Therefore, when the good news from Qianxi came, everyone felt uplifted. But Qianxi did not remain idle upon his return; he was reviewing other battle lines at the command center. Upon inspection, Qianxi frowned because none of the fronts were in an advantageous position.

Seeing such a severe situation, Qianxi felt somewhat hopeless. If it weren't for Ren Tianye's help, he might not have easily captured that front.

What to do? This question floated continuously in Qianxi's mind. Indeed, solving the solution is the priority now. Therefore, Qianxi kept asking himself what to do. Thinking over and over, Qianxi could only think of one solution, and that is for Huaxia to produce someone beyond the Golden Elixir Realm.

Though Qianxi's words might sound far-fetched, they are indeed truthful. If a master beyond the Golden Elixir level emerged within Huaxia, these issues wouldn't be worrisome. Such experts can usually confront an entire troop alone.

However, this is just Qianxi's assumption because, in all these years, Qianxi hasn't heard of anyone who can surpass the Golden Elixir. Of course, excluding those famous hermits, perhaps in some corner of the country, there actually exists someone who has broken through the Golden Elixir Realm. Thinking of this made Qianxi frown again.

At this moment, Hua Xiangrong suddenly called Qianxi. Answering the call, Hua Xiangrong's urgent voice came through, saying he made a significant discovery. Initially, Qianxi wasn't interested, but after Hua Xiangrong's explanation, Qianxi was enlightened. No wonder Hua Xiangrong claimed to have a significant finding; it was indeed substantial.

This discovery concerns Xiao Yifei. It is about the One Hundred and Eight Needles, capable of allowing people to break through the Golden Elixir. Moreover, it is a necessity to surpass the Golden Elixir. In other words, without Xiao Yifei, no one can break through the Golden Elixir level.

Hearing this, Qianxi was a bit surprised, not expecting that Xiao Yifei's acupuncture technique could help Golden Elixir individuals break through. Thinking of this, Qianxi couldn't help but marvel at Xiao Yifei's miraculous acupuncture, but it also clarified one thing: Xiao Yifei is the person Qianxi has been searching for.

Qianxi previously said he needed to find Golden Elixir masters, but now it seems, with Xiao Yifei around, everything becomes much simpler. After hanging up on Hua Xiangrong, Qianxi suddenly issued an order to fully search for Xiao Yifei. Only by finding Xiao Yifei could they have a fighting chance.

At this moment, Xiao Yifei probably didn't know that the entire Beijing had gone crazy searching for him. But who would have expected that Xiao Yifei was in an unknown small town? A few days later, Liu Bailong's injuries had almost healed, so after some discussion, Liu Bailong decided to accompany Xiao Yifei back to Beijing.

Upon stepping outside, Xiao Yifei cautiously looked around, wanting to see if there were any men resembling the one who tried to assassinate him. In Xiao Yifei's current opinion, they are extremely dangerous, and the psychological shadow from them will probably never be erased.

Stepping into the car heading back to Beijing, Xiao Yifei finally exhaled a sigh of relief because he always felt that the longer he stayed here, the more dangerous it became. So, at dawn, Xiao Yifei left this dangerous small town.

The car journey wasn't fast; Xiao Yifei traveled for an entire day and night to reach Beijing. Despite the war raging outside, Beijing remained just as prosperous. And Xiao Yifei felt a sense of familiarity as soon as he arrived, having been confined for so long. Xiao Yifei and Liu Bailong went to the Hua Mansion, only to find it empty.

Seeing the deserted Hua Mansion, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but frown. Did even Elder Hua go to participate in the war? Xiao Yifei thought, and indeed, he guessed right. At this moment, Elder Hua was serving as the commander of this war.
