?

  The verdict of Lu Xian Jin Dan is undisputed, and his attitude is very clear: the affairs of the sect should be resolved within the sect, and it's not allowed to hurt people in the city.

  Han Shi Daoren hesitated for a moment, then revealed a hint of joy: "Lu Dao You, the previous dispute was just because Li Hui wanted to stop me from taking our sect's disciples back to the sect, and I had no choice but to do so. Now that the City Guard has arrived, this matter can be easily resolved. I will take our sect's disciples away and handle them accordingly."

  Li Hui's face changed upon hearing this, the verdict itself was fair and reasonable, but it also meant that Hanshi Dao could lawfully take Han Xue away by force. He hadn't thought of this previously due to his momentary anger, Han Xue had not left the sect, so she would still be bound by the sect's rules.

  At this time, Han Xue stepped forward and slightly bowed to the Lu surname Jindan cultivator: "Lu senior, I am leaving the sect of my own accord. In the past, there have been fellow disciples who left the sect after building their foundation to establish their own family. The sect also allows this, I hope Lu senior will understand."

  Han Xue had already understood that today was probably unable to turn things around, and she must leave with Han Shi Dao Ren. However, she still wanted to make a last-ditch effort. A Qi Foundation stage disciple leaving the sect wasn't a big deal, Han Xue said this in hopes that Han Shi Dao Ren would consider giving her face and not obstruct her again.

  Lü surnamed Jindan cultivator listened to Han Xue's words without any change in expression, and calmly said: "This is an internal affair of the Bi Xiao Gate, I also have no right to interfere, but as a private individual, I'll say one thing, Hanshi fellow Daoist, this can't be considered a big deal, nor should these young people be troubled."

  Li Hui and Han Xue were both moved, originally hearing "no right to interfere" was somewhat disappointed, did not expect that this Lv surname Golden Elixir cultivator would actually speak up for them.

  "Thank you, Senior Lü!" The two of them bowed in unison to thank the Golden Elixir cultivator with the surname Lü.

  Lü surnamed Jindan cultivator slightly nodded and didn't say anything else.

  "Master, I was rude to you just now. Please forgive me and let me leave the sect." Han Xue turned around and slightly bowed to Hanshi Dao Ren, saying calmly.

  Han Shi Daoren furrowed his brow, things had gotten to this point, he, a dignified Golden Elixir cultivator, was actually being questioned by the City Guard on the street about the departure of one of his disciples, it could be said that he had lost all face, and he didn't want to bother with this matter anymore.

  However, at this time, the Bi Xiang Gate was on its last breath. On that day, only a few Golden Elixir cultivators and dozens of elite disciples escaped under the leadership of Yuan Ying Lao Zu and Hua Yang Zu Shi. The sect was in such a state of decline, and Han Xue, as an elite disciple, could not be allowed to leave like this.

  Moreover, if she were allowed to leave, how could he save face?

  Han Shi Daoren said calmly, "The sect has its rules. As a disciple of this sect, you naturally cannot defy them. If everyone can leave at will, how can the sect stand? Do not mention leaving the sect again!", then turned his head to look at the Lu surname Golden Elixir cultivator: "Let Lu Daoyou see the joke."

  Lü surnamed Jindan cultivator slightly nodded his head, but didn't say anything.

  Li Hui and Han Xue both understood that things could no longer be changed. They looked at each other, their eyes locking in a silent understanding. Though they didn't say anything more, their gazes were filled with reluctance and helplessness. Both of them knew that this separation would last for who knows how many years to come. The love hidden deep within their hearts surged forth, burning fiercely in their eyes.

  Han Shi's heart moved slightly, and he said calmly: "Li Hui was originally a disciple of our sect too. If you want to return to the sect, you can do so at any time."

  Li Hui slowly turned his head and stared at Han Shidao: "What am I going back for? To be cannon fodder for you again?" His words were filled with sarcasm, then he turned away and ignored Han Shidao.

  Han Shidao was disappointed and let out a cold snort: "Hmph, Han Xue, if that's the case, then follow me."

  Han Xue's body shook, her eyes still reluctant to leave Li Hui's face. She suddenly raised her head, slightly lifted her toes, and gently kissed Li Hui's lips, softly saying: "Wait for me!"

  Two lines of clear tears fell uncontrollably from the absolutely beautiful face, dropping one by one, then turned around and left. The autumn water-like eyes still sparkled with tears, but the complexion had changed to cold as frost, and the eyes were filled with determination.

  "Let's go, Master Shibo." Han Xue's voice was devoid of emotion.

  Li Hui stood still on the spot, the temperature between his lips had not yet cooled down, the soft words by his ear were still echoing, and the beauty had already turned around and left.

  "I'll wait for you!" Li Hui's voice was not loud, but full of determination.

  Han Xue's body trembled slightly, but she didn't turn back again. She was afraid that if she turned back this time, she would never be able to leave again and wouldn't be able to control her emotions anymore.

  The people around looked at all this in silence, most cultivators were emotionally numb, even if they had a dual cultivation partner, it was possible that they were only together for the sake of cultivation, and similarly, it was also possible that they would separate or even become enemies due to their pursuit of the Great Way.

  The sincere emotions of these young men and women have touched many people's hearts, leaving them slightly moved.

  Except for one person, Bi Xiao Men Liu Kun looked at Han Xue and Li Hui's reluctant to part with each other scene, his heart was like being gnawed by millions of ants, and when Han Xue deeply kissed and turned away, it was even more so that the anger in his eyes burst out, but since Han Shi Dao Ren was there, he naturally didn't dare to reveal it.

  "Let's go." Han Shi said lightly and turned to salute Lu, a golden elixir cultivator: "Farewell, Fellow Daoist Lu."

  Lü surname Jindan cultivator slightly cupped his fist and nodded in return.

  Han Shi Daoren waved his hand, and a green flying boat appeared out of thin air, several dozen feet long. Liu Kun and the other three stepped aboard, and Han Xue hesitated for a moment before also getting on.

  Han Shi Dao Ren's one move Fa Jue struck out, the flying boat lightly trembled once, rushed up to the clear sky, and floated away.

  Li Hui still stood there in a daze, but his eyes gradually changed from being empty to becoming firm and sharp, making him appear even more aloof and cold.

  "Xu'er, one day, no matter who it is, will never be able to separate you and me, not even the heavens that govern the cycle of life!" Li Hui said silently in his heart, his determination to cultivate the Great Dao and become a legendary swordsman became even more resolute.

  Lü surnamed Golden Elixir cultivator was about to leave when he noticed the changes in the young man's spirit and temperament, and felt a bit surprised.

  When he first arrived, Li Hui surprisingly resisted the pressure of Han Shidao's late-stage Golden Elixir with his early-stage foundation-building cultivation. Unyielding and unrelenting, the Lu surname Golden Elixir cultivator had a few favorable impressions of him. Now, seeing that Li Hui could quickly extricate himself from the sorrow of parting and his Dao heart became even more resolute, he couldn't help but nod his head slightly in approval.

  "Are you Li Hui? I see that despite your young age, your cultivation is not weak, and your determination is also quite rare. At this time, you don't have a sect or school to belong to, if you're interested, you might as well join the City Guard, I can introduce you." The golden elixir cultivator with the surname Lü smiled at Li Hui.

  Li Hui was taken aback, but he could also see that the other party had good intentions. However, as for joining the City Guard, he didn't have any plans. Right now, he only wanted to become stronger! He single-mindedly pursued the Great Way, letting nothing in this world be able to bind him again!

  "Junior thanks Senior Lü, but junior currently only wants to be alone and cultivate quietly, afraid of disappointing senior's kindness." Li Hui bowed his fist in gratitude.

  Lu surname Jindan cultivator nodded: "So be it, this is my token of faith. If one day you want to join the City Guard, bring this token to the City Guard camp in this area and find me. If I'm not around, just show this token and someone will receive you." He reached into his storage bag and handed over a palm-sized white jade token.

  More than 20 city guards behind Lord Lü were in an uproar, as Lord Lü had just offered to recommend a cultivator he had just met for the first time to join the City Guard, and even gave him his own token of trust. This was unprecedented, showing how much Lord Lü valued this person. For a moment, several people couldn't help but look at Li Hui with envy.

  Li Hui was somewhat perplexed, unable to understand why the Lu surname Golden Elixir cultivator valued him so much. Nevertheless, he still reached out and accepted the jade plaque: "Junior thanks Senior for your kindness!"

  Lü surnamed Golden Elixir cultivator smiled and nodded, then suddenly rose into the air, the other city guard members also flew up, following behind Lü surnamed Golden Elixir cultivator, continuing to patrol this area, in an instant they had disappeared from Li Hui's line of sight.

  Li Hui flipped over the white jade token in his hand, on which was carved a purple wisteria flower, with an ancient "Lv" character engraved below. His mind stirred as he discovered that this jade token could also store information like the jade slip. He immediately sent his spiritual sense inside.

  "Lyuan Zhao, late-stage Golden Elixir, from the Ziwei Palace, currently serving as the commander of the Seventh Battalion of the Eastern City District Garrison..."
