Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

"Young Master Li, with your spirited and ambitious nature, inviting me to join the Four Views Sect, shouldn't you feel that you think highly of me?"

Why do your eyes seem to say, "This trip was a waste of time"?

Li Xiangyi laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Although I am somewhat arrogant, I am not stupid after all. Manager Tang lives such a leisurely life and his martial arts are the best in the world."

Since they are not bound by rules, they naturally will not get involved in factional struggles.

I was so impulsive before; I really shouldn't have come today.

Li Xiangyi felt a sense of freedom in Tang Yu.

This made him instantly realize that the person in front of him could never be involved in matters of the martial arts world.

Although the purpose of establishing the Four Gates was to eradicate evil cults and brutal people in the martial arts world.

But after the Sigu Sect has truly developed in the past few years, Li Xiangyi has come to understand.

In reality, the world of martial arts is often not filled with so much joy and revenge; instead, it's filled with all sorts of complicated matters that take up people's energy.

"Is Young Hero Li about to face off against the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance?"

Since the person in front of her understood her meaning, Tang Yu did not refuse again; she really had no interest in getting involved.

Getting involved would mean taking responsibility for the lives of so many people; wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?

Tang Yu has already taken responsibility for the future of the people in Peach Blossom Pavilion. Does he want to take on more people and conquer the world?

No need.

"Maybe yes, maybe no, I need to find the right time."

That was Tang Yu's last impression of Li Xiangyi's face.

Because the next time news of Li Xiangyi was heard, it was already time for Li Xiangyi and Di Feisheng to fight a major battle in the East China Sea, and their fates were unknown.

A few years later, Tang Yu met a familiar person.

At this time, Li Xiangyi had disappeared, and a traveling doctor named Li Lianhua appeared in the world.

Chapter 6 Lotus Tower 6

This world has a lot of herbs, all of which are varieties that Xiao Qi and Tang Yu have never seen before.

Therefore, Tang Yu would always go into the mountains to collect data, dig out rare medicinal herbs, and learn some of the world's medical and toxicological techniques throughout the year.

After all, you always need to find something to do to pass the time.

So we should learn as long as we live.

That autumn, Tang Yu went into the mountains to collect medicinal herbs.

The mountains are ablaze with red, the forests are dyed in vibrant hues, and the autumn air is crisp and clear—truly a beautiful and captivating season.

Tang Yu stood atop the mountain, admiring the scenery, then inhaling the fragrance in the air, her eyes instantly lighting up.

It smells like persimmons!

So Tang Yu flew out and found the group of persimmon trees.

A cluster of persimmon trees resembled clusters of burning flames, each tree laden with ripe persimmons.

The bright red persimmons, glistening in the warm autumn sun, looked like tiny red lanterns bending the branches.

As the autumn wind blows, a rich, sweet aroma fills the air—the scent of ripe persimmons, so sweet it seems to permeate one's very being.

Then, Tang Yu saw a young man in coarse linen clothes eating a persimmon in the distance.

"You vixen, have a bite too, it's a very sweet persimmon."

You said I should pick a whole box of persimmons and store them, so I won't have to cook for at least three days, right?

"Sigh, eating persimmons for three days straight will probably cause indigestion."

We might as well pick more and exchange them for some money; winter will be here soon.

"Buying you a warm bed and a winter coat would be nice..."

The young man was talking to the dog incessantly, and the dog was quite well-behaved; they seemed to be getting along quite well.

Tang Yu stared at the other person for a long time before finally realizing who this somewhat familiar figure was.

"Li Xiangyi, you're not dead? Why are you hiding?"

Tang Yu flew to the young man's side. Li Xiangyi saw that Tang Yu was a little embarrassed, but he immediately realized what was going on.

“Young lady, you have mistaken me for someone else. My name is Li Lianhua.”

"Li Xiangyi, I have a bad temper. Do you still remember how it felt to roll down the mountain back then?"

Li Xiangyi: "..."

Seven years ago we couldn't beat them, and now we only have one-tenth of our strength left. What are we still arguing about?

Those who understand the times are wise, and Li Xiangyi readily slid to his knees.

"Manager Tang is still as charming as ever. I never expected to have such a chance encounter with her today."

The reason I didn't acknowledge my identity just now was because I've made quite a few enemies over the years, and I didn't want to cause trouble for Manager Tang.

Tang Yu thought about what had happened in the past few years. The Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance had almost disappeared, the Four Gates had disbanded, and now the Hundred Rivers Academy had been established.

Then, Baichuanyuan remained tight-lipped about Li Xiangyi's affairs, tacitly acknowledging that Li Xiangyi was dead.

The person who had been searching for Li Xiangyi was Qiao Wanmian.

Although I've heard rumors recently, Qiao Wanmian has a protector named Xiao Zijin by her side.

And so, Tang Yu understood.

"Are your enemies Qiao Wanmian and Xiao Zijin? Their betrayal has left you heartbroken and unwilling to return to Sigumen. Are you afraid of being laughed at by the world for being cuckolded?"

"Li Xiangyi, I didn't realize a heartbreak could make you so devastated!"

Li Xiangyi never expected it could be interpreted this way.

"Manager Tang, you've misunderstood. Miss Qiao and I have already separated. Please don't bring up those words again."

He neither cared about losing his lover nor about the career he once loved most being abandoned.

He doesn't care at all even if his love life and career are completely ruined.

Is this still the same spirited Li Xiangyi?

The once radiant young man seemed to have vanished from memory; instead, a disheveled and thin young man stood before him.

This must have been a major blow, right?

Okay, it's not good to reopen old wounds.

When old friends meet, it's best to treat each other to a meal.

Life is full of disappointments, so don't take it too seriously.

"We're meeting an old friend today, how about I treat you to a meal? There's a restaurant nearby that serves pretty good food."

Li Xiangyi didn't want to be questioned further, so Tang Yu's change of topic made him feel instantly relieved.

“It’s a happy occasion to be invited to dinner, but after living alone for so many years, I’ve come to understand what it feels like to be strapped for cash.”

Manager Tang is wealthy and leisurely; a restaurant that Manager Tang praises must have excellent food. I'm already looking forward to it.

At this point, Li Xiangyi smiled and pointed to the persimmon tree next to him.

"But before that, please give me a little time, Manager Tang."

These persimmons are really good; I'd like to take some back with me.

"Actually, I came here because of the smell of persimmons, so I'll take some more with me."

After saying this, Tang Yu saw Li Xiangyi fly up to the persimmon tree and start picking the fruit, which puzzled Tang Yu.

As a martial arts practitioner, do we still use such primitive harvesting methods?

"Li Xiangyi, what a waste of time you're wasting picking them! With your martial arts skills, you could just use any force and these persimmons would fall down."

Li Xiangyi gave an awkward yet polite smile.

"I suffered internal injuries a few years ago and cannot force myself to use my internal energy."

Tang Yu suddenly flew up a big tree and pulled Li Xiangyi down. Under Li Xiangyi's surprised gaze, Tang Yu began to take his pulse.

A few seconds later, Tang Yu released Li Xiangyi's wrist and looked at the young man in front of her with a surprised gaze.

It's unbelievable! This once brilliant young man is now poisoned to the core and doesn't have many years left to live!

No wonder a confident and arrogant young man can transform into a gentle and mild-mannered person after a few years.

He lost his lover, lost his career, and is now suffering from illness and facing death.

Despite enduring immense torment, Li Xiangyi did not drive himself mad; instead, his personality became more serene and gentle.

awesome!

Indeed, growing up is a painful process!

That spirited young man, now he doesn't even have many years left to live.

Tang Yu was so confused that he couldn't even remember what Li Xiangyi looked like a few years ago.

Back then, this man could freely wield his sword on the rooftop, play chess with the courtesan, compose poetry with elegance, and even visit the palace to admire the epiphyllum...

It's quite poignant that such a rebellious and dashing young man had to pay such a heavy price for growing up.

"What does Manager Tang mean by that expression?"

Li Xiangyi didn't know how skilled Tang Yu was in medicine, so he didn't understand how much Tang Yu had discerned about the situation.

"Li Xiangyi, who poisoned you? Your enemy is so vicious, trying to torture you to death with poison."

It seems the person before him is also a skilled physician, Li Xiangyi sighed.

"After the establishment of the Four Gates, I presumptuously assumed that I was upholding justice in the martial arts world."
