Thus, Xiao Yifei also went around asking people how to break through the Golden Elixir stage. When he asked Qianxi, even she felt a bit speechless. His cultivation speed was so fast, yet he was still thinking about advancing further. Thinking of this, Qianxi suddenly didn't want to tell Xiao Yifei. However, in fairness, Qianxi really didn't know.

Because back then, he himself stayed at that level for a long time before breaking through to the Golden Elixir stage. During that time, Qianxi kept cultivating and refining himself, which is how he managed to progress. Therefore, Qianxi advised Xiao Yifei not to rush and to cultivate patiently, as he would inevitably break through.

After hearing Qianxi's advice, Xiao Yifei realized that his cultivation speed was indeed somewhat extreme. So he calmed down and waited patiently. After all, since a master at the Golden Elixir stage had said so, there was no reason for Xiao Yifei to rush. Hence, he continued to cultivate at his usual pace.

The war was still ongoing, but the situation had reversed. For some reason, the enemy nation from the north unexpectedly withdrew part of their troops, significantly reducing the pressure on Huaxia. Although only a portion had withdrawn, the situation had improved considerably, at least there was no worry that the enemy forces would break through their defenses.

However, the reason for the enemy's withdrawal remained a mystery. Logically, given the current situation, the enemy could have continued to cling on stubbornly. But just like that, they withdrew suddenly, and no one knew why.

But with the sudden advantage in warfare, it was great news for Qianxi. Now, Qianxi didn't have to worry about so many things. With the northern front liberated, the problems on other fronts were easily resolved too.

Thus, although the war continued, barring any unexpected circumstances, it seemed likely that Huaxia would emerge victorious. As days passed, Xiao Yifei's cultivation remained at the Peak of Dark Force. Although he couldn't break through, Xiao Yifei wasn't about to give up easily. Presently, he had changed tremendously compared to before.

Due to cultivation, Xiao Yifei's overall spirit was much better than before, and his physique had also become more robust. Of course, Xiao Yifei's appearance was still quite attractive, and he even had a touch more ruggedness than before, making him appear even more appealing.

In summary, cultivation had brought Xiao Yifei numerous benefits, and he had gained the ability to protect himself. At least when faced with assassins like before, even if he couldn't defeat them, Xiao Yifei could definitely escape, preventing anyone from stopping him. Therefore, Xiao Yifei didn't regret enduring such pain to restore his meridians back then.

Now, she increasingly felt that her decision back then was absolutely correct. Consequently, Xiao Yifei would feel itchy all over if he didn't cultivate, so every day, Xiao Yifei would go to the courtyard to practice his cultivation technique.

That day, according to his usual habit, Xiao Yifei went to the courtyard. However, just as Xiao Yifei was starting to make a few moves, someone interrupted his progress. An assistant-looking person hurriedly approached Xiao Yifei, causing him to frown.

Even though this person interrupted his training, they seemed to be in urgent need, so Xiao Yifei didn't make things difficult for them. He straightforwardly asked, "May I help you with something?" The words made their breath unsteady, clearly short of breath, unable to speak. After a while, they caught their breath and said to Xiao Yifei, "My young master, something's wrong!"

Upon hearing that their young master was in trouble, Xiao Yifei immediately sensed that something was off. But why would they come to Xiao Yifei if there was trouble with their young master? Could it be because I have medical skills, or perhaps their young master was ill? With this thought, Xiao Yifei was almost sure he was right.

Xiao Yifei asked gently, "Don't worry, what's your young master's name?" Without hesitation, the person quickly responded, "Young Master, his name is Muyun."

"What?" Hearing this name, Xiao Yifei was indeed startled. Since treating Muyun, Xiao Yifei hadn't thought of Muyun; he believed Muyun had recovered. But hearing it now meant that Muyun's illness might need treatment again? With this thought, Xiao Yifei frowned slightly.

Because whenever a patient previously treated by her needed further treatment, Xiao Yifei would feel a little guilty, suspecting it was due to her own mistake. As a result, Xiao Yifei would always feel self-reproach, and this time was no exception. Hearing that Muyun's old illness had relapsed, Xiao Yifei's face sank. He nodded slowly and said to the newcomer, "Take me there."

Upon hearing this, the person was taken aback. Before Muyun left, he had instructed them to find Xiao Yifei. But this person, unfamiliar to him, how could he easily bring them back? So, they cautiously asked, "May I know your name, sir?"

"Xiao Yifei," Xiao Yifei stated calmly, revealing his identity.

With just those simple two words, the person promptly led Xiao Yifei to the Mu Residence. Arriving there, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but feel nostalgic. Just a few months ago, he was quite indifferent to Muyun, but now he felt a bit worried. Reflecting on this, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but chuckle quietly. In the past, he even schemed with Xiao Wushuang.

"Mr. Xiao, please come with me." While Xiao Yifei was in a daze looking at the Mu Residence, the guard-like man reminded him. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei nodded and followed the man inside. The appearance inside was the same as before; the Mu Residence hadn't changed at all. Walking through the corridor, Xiao Yifei reached a room.

Xiao Yifei was very familiar with this room—it was Muyun's. The man knocked lightly on the door, and after a while, someone opened it. The first sight that greeted Xiao Yifei's eyes was Muyun's father, Mu Feng, who was sitting next to Muyun's bed, his face laden with worry.

Hearing the door open, Mu Feng turned his gaze towards it. Upon seeing Xiao Yifei, the cloud of worry on his face lightened significantly. He promptly got up to greet him, "Mr. Xiao, we've been looking forward to your arrival." Mu Feng said as he came up to Xiao Yifei.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei waved his hand and chuckled, "City Lord Mu, you overestimate me." As he spoke, Xiao Yifei's eyes were still fixed on the bedridden Muyun. He was concerned about Muyun's condition, not there to catch up with Mu Feng. "Mr. Xiao, please take a look," Mu Feng urged, evidently noticing it too.

Xiao Yifei nodded and approached Muyun's bedside. Muyun was lying quietly on the bed, his lips were purple, his complexion sallow, looking like a withered tree. He seemed to hover between life and death. Seeing Muyun in this state, Xiao Yifei immediately frowned, as this condition was the same as when he first saw Muyun.

This meant that Muyun's sudden acute condition was likely a relapse of his old illness. Seeing Xiao Yifei frown, Mu Feng's heart sank, and he immediately asked, "Mr. Xiao, what's the matter?" Hearing this, Xiao Yifei shook his head and asked, "What has happened recently with Young Master Muyun?"
