Lu Huanong liked dressing in ancient attire, each piece so beautiful that it seemed like a work of art, especially when worn by her, transforming her into a piece of art as well.

"I know I was wrong, but it seems like such things are destined to find me, and I can't seem to escape them," Ling Zhenfei said helplessly. He had indeed tried to avoid them before, but those people had actually disguised themselves as taxi drivers and tricked him.

Lu Huanong nodded and said, "This is what they call an inevitable fate. Fortunately, you didn't die. You should rest well."

Ling Zhenfei looked at Lu Huanong in surprise and asked, "By the way, how did you know something had happened to me there?"

Lu Huanong sat down on the chair beside the bed, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Ling Zhenfei, saying, "That day after you called me, I felt uneasy, always feeling that something bad was going to happen. When it got dark, this feeling peaked, so I divined your fortune again."

"What, you divined again!" Ling Zhenfei almost sat up from the bed in shock.

Lu Huanong had divined the fortune, and he knew what this meant. Lu Huanong's life was not meant to be long to begin with, and now divining the future again, not to mention it definitely meant leaking heavenly secrets. Under Heaven's punishment, it was really hard to say how long Lu Huanong could hold on.

"It's alright, Heaven wouldn't let me die so easily. It will only torment me a bit longer. Besides, the medicine you gave me last time really worked well. I felt much better, and the effect was quite evident," Lu Huanong said with a smiling face, seeming very happy.

Ling Zhenfei sighed heavily and felt very helpless because, being seriously injured himself, helping Lu Huanong instantly was impossible, and he deeply hated himself for causing Lu Huanong to divulge heavenly secrets again.

Last time, not knowing about Lu Huanong's situation, he had her divine his fortune, already owing her a huge favor. This time, with Lu Huanong risking divine punishment to save his life, he truly did not know how to repay this favor.

"When I killed those people, what happened to them?" Ling Zhenfei asked curiously, knowing that if he had killed someone, he would have to face legal consequences.

Lu Huanong calmly said, "You don't need to worry about that. I've taken care of everything already. There won't be any trace left, and you won't be implicated. Just focus on your recovery."

Ling Zhenfei was shocked inside, not knowing how Lu Huanong had managed it, but he chose to trust her. Although not often going out, Lu Huanong was certainly no ordinary person.

Feeling his current condition slightly, his body's spiritual power was exceptionally low, to the point that he couldn't muster even the little that remained. This probably was a side effect of the Riming Flower that had not yet subsided.

His internal injuries still existed but had improved somewhat, and his external wounds had scabbed over, soon to heal.

As a cultivator, Ling Zhenfei's body was different from ordinary people, and his wounds obviously healed much faster than a normal person's would.

"Thank you for treating my illness. My internal injuries have healed quickly. I don't know what miraculous elixirs you gave me," Ling Zhenfei said, looking at Lu Huanong.

Lu Huanong, somewhat surprised, said, "I didn't treat your internal injuries. I only bandaged your external wounds. I'm not a professional doctor. I just learned some Medical Arts from my father, but I couldn't even detect your internal injuries."

Ling Zhenfei was stunned. If no one had treated him, his severe injuries, how could they have healed so quickly? Perhaps it was related to the medicinal herbs he had taken randomly before losing consciousness.

What medicinal herbs had worked, Ling Zhenfei had no idea, but he didn't dwell on it much. Right now, the most important thing was to recover his spiritual power.

Hearing Lu Huanong say that he had been unconscious for three days, it seemed his injuries were indeed very severe if it took three days for his body to wake him.

He managed to sit up and began cultivation, but he couldn't muster any spiritual power within his body. However, to his surprise, this didn't hinder the cultivation of his soul. The cultivation of Soul Passage was still possible.

After practicing Soul Passage cultivation, he would definitely be able to break through the constraints of the Riming Flower and restore Northern Spiritual Energy.

After a whole day of cultivation, Ling Zhenfei's Spiritual Power had slightly recovered. Although the side effects of the Riming Flower were still present, they weren't too significant, and with this Spiritual Power, his body also recovered much faster.

That day, Lu Huanong took very careful care of him, making him feel incredibly warm, but it also filled him with worry. Such a gentle and beautiful girl, if she were to die young, it would truly be a great pity.

Ling Zhenfei inwardly swore that no matter what method he used, he must cure Lu Huanong's illness.

The next day, Ling Zhenfei planned to leave. Since he needed recuperation either way, he might as well return home to recover. After so many days out, there must be a lot of things to deal with at home.

Before leaving, Ling Zhenfei checked Lu Huanong's condition once again. Her body was still the same as last time, nearly at the end of its tether, but fortunately, the Longevity Pill provided some benefit.

That afternoon, Ling Zhenfei boarded a train to Binyang. He chose not to fly this time; indeed, he had some reservations about flying.

On the train, Ling Zhenfei took out his phone from within the Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow. He hadn't checked his phone in days, and now it was full of messages, with the majority from Bai Ling, who had sent countless messages inquiring about his condition on WeChat.

Ling Zhenfei hurriedly replied to Bai Ling, making up an excuse to stop her from worrying and also told her that he was returning to Binyang today.

Bai Ling replied quickly, very upset about Ling Zhenfei's lack of responses over the past few days, even declaring angrily that she would no longer bother with him.

But eventually, she couldn't help but tell Ling Zhenfei that she was going to Binyang to find him in the next few days. Ling Zhenfei, of course, could say nothing but agree.

As for what would happen when Bai Ling arrived in Binyang, Ling Zhenfei didn't know; he could only take things one step at a time.

When the train arrived in Binyang, it was already evening. Seeing that it was rather late, Ling Zhenfei went straight to his bar to check on its situation.

He had already decided on transforming the bar into a high-end restaurant. Before he left, he had discussed this plan with Zhou Tong, entrusting him to conduct research and make plans. He wondered how Zhou Tong was doing now.

Back then, they were hindered by lack of funds, but now things were different. Ling Zhenfei had ample funds and could definitely make the restaurant a success.

Upon arriving at the bar, he discovered that it had already closed down. Although it was already dark, the lights inside the bar were still on, and Ling Zhenfei strode in.

Inside the bar, a group of people were measuring room dimensions, while Zhou Tong and a foreman-like person were discussing something.

Ling Zhenfei walked over to the two people and heard them discussing the restaurant's decoration matters.

"This part isn't very important, let's save where we can, just making that charm come out is enough," Zhou Tong pointed at a place on the blueprint and told the foreman, who nodded repeatedly, saying, "Don't worry, I'll save you money, but the things will look just as real."

"No, we can't skimp on money!"

Ling Zhenfei suddenly spoke up, startling Zhou Tong and the foreman who were in discussion.

The two hurriedly looked over, and seeing it was Ling Zhenfei, Zhou Tong became excited: "Boss, you're finally back. If you hadn't returned soon, I would have gone mad."
