"Don't worry about us. We have plenty of ways to avoid being wanted."

Bai Yuan didn't care. By then, it would be Assassin and his accomplices who would be wanted. What did it have to do with them?

He pointed at Xuan Jian.

"As for you, although Wei Yong is the mastermind behind this incident, you are the one who carried out the mission. The Wei Wuzu must hate you to the core. If you go to Daliang again at this time, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate."

"But......"

"Alright, we'll help them to the end. If you trust us, then you can take good care of your wife outside the city. We will leave the city in a few days and bring your child out with us!"

Bai Yuan waved his hand and interrupted Xuan Jian.

Rescuing the two children was no big deal for them. They had made an agreement with Xinling Jun before that Wei Xianxian and her child would not be implicated because of Wei Yong. When the time came, they would find a reason to let Wei Wuji give the child to them.

Xuan Jian and Wei Xianxian didn't know about the deal they had with Wei Wuji, so they still discussed it.

In the end they chose to accept Bai Yuan's method.

"Then we will wait for news from you two in the village in the east!"

"Okay! We'll go first then."

Bai Yuan and Wuming calculated the time and thought it was time for them to go back. They used their Qinggong skills and flew towards Daliang City again.

Chapter 39: Rising Star

Before dawn, Bai Yuan and Wuming returned to Xuanxin Pavilion safely.

As soon as he came back, Bai Yuan took off his bright red clothes and changed back into his usual clothes.

Tuk Tuk!

Bai Yuan had just changed his clothes when he heard a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Squeak!

The door was slowly pushed open, and Bai Yuan saw who was coming clearly.

"Ningyan? You didn't sleep all night?"

"Well, I couldn't sleep. Did you just get back?"

Jingwei was already accustomed to hearing Bai Yuan address him.

During this period, she also began to try to forget her previous identity and put herself into the role of Ningyan.

"Yeah, what? Worried about us?"

Bai Yuan said jokingly as he poured himself a glass of water.

"You think too much."

Jingwei replied calmly, his eyes fixed on the mask on the bed.

Wow, it turns out you’re concerned about the mask!

Bai Yuan waved his hand helplessly: "Take it!"

Hearing Bai Yuan say this, Jingwei didn't bother to be polite with him. He took the mask and put it on himself immediately.

It can be seen that she really wants to get rid of the identity of Jingwei.

With the help of the mask, Jingwei changed into a different appearance. Not as stunningly beautiful as before, but still pleasing to the eyes.

After looking at the bronze mirror for a long time, Jingwei was sure that no one would be able to tell her identity if they didn't know it in advance.

Retracting his gaze, Jingwei sat opposite Bai Yuan and looked at him very seriously.

"Thank...thank you..."

Although the voice was very soft, Bai Yuan still heard Jingwei's words clearly and was slightly surprised.

This was the first time in such a long time that he heard Jingwei thank him, and this feeling was quite uncomfortable for him.

Bai Yuan smiled and shook his head: "You don't have to thank me, I did all this just to get revenge on Luowang, of course, it's also revenge on you for assassinating me twice. Although you are now free from Luowang, you have become my maid now!"

Hearing this, Jingwei remained calm.

"You are different from Luo Wang. It is better for you to be Ning Yan than Jing Niu. From today on, Jing Niu is completely a thing of the past."

Bai Yuan was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Jingwei to figure it out so quickly and accept his new identity.

"It seems that you have completely let it go, good!"

Bai Yuan nodded with some satisfaction. It was great that he had successfully obtained such a capable maid.

However, he didn't feel happy for long, as Jingwei started to negotiate terms with him.

"Although I accept Ningyan's identity and can be your maid, if you make any excessive requests, I will not agree to it."

Bai Yuan understood what she meant, which was that if she was asked to do some work like serving tea and water, she would not refuse, but if she was asked to sleep with someone, she would definitely refuse.

"no problem!"

Naturally, he agreed immediately as this request was very reasonable.

After the terms were agreed upon, Jingwei didn't stay any longer and got up to go back.

At this time, Bai Yuan said, "It's almost dawn. Go get me a basin of water so I can wash up!"

Hearing this, Jingwei couldn't help but clench her fists. For some reason, she felt like hitting someone.

But in the end she still obeyed Bai Yuan's instructions and went to get him some water.

Not long after, she came back with a basin of boiling hot water.

Looking at the hot water that was constantly emitting white steam, Bai Yuan could feel its high temperature even from a distance of several meters.

His eye twitched slightly and he swallowed.

Fortunately, it's not a big problem.

He mobilized a stream of internal energy in his hands and flicked it lightly at the basin. A chill instantly enveloped it and quickly lowered the water temperature to a suitable level. Then he began to wash himself.

Jingwei also knew that this would not be a problem for Bai Yuan, but she did it on purpose.

While having breakfast, Wuming and Lu were slightly surprised to see Jingwei's drastically changed appearance.

"This is Ningyan. She has simply changed her appearance. She has completely accepted her current identity."

Bai Yuan mentioned this to them.

"Congratulations to Miss Ningyan (sister) for her new life!"

Wuming and Lu congratulated Ningyan with a smile.

She also forced a smile and nodded in response to the two of them.

After a simple breakfast, Bai Yuan went to the alchemy room in the backyard to check on how Yun Xuan and Yu Xuan were practicing.

He had ignored the two of them these past few days, letting them figure it out on their own. He only knew that from time to time he could hear the sound of a furnace exploding in the backyard, but he had no idea how the two were practicing.

As soon as he entered, he saw two national treasures. One was staggering there, and the other one was staring at the alchemy furnace with two big dark circles under his eyes. It seemed that he was still making the elixir!

Bai Yuan was startled. He walked forward and gently woke up Yun Xuan who was dozing off.

"How many days have you two not had a rest?"

"Uncle Master? It's not just a few days. I just haven't slept for two days."

After Yun Xuan woke up, he answered while yawning.

Yu Xuan, who was refining the elixir nearby, seemed not to notice Bai Yuan coming. He was concentrating on the last step of refining the elixir.

The pill is formed!

When Bai Yuan and Yun Xuan saw this scene, they both remained silent tacitly.

It is obvious that Yuxuan has made great progress to be able to reach this point.

The last time Bai Yuan taught them, the furnace exploded when they were taking the first step of extracting the herbal essence.

Now they are able to proceed to the last step steadily, which shows that they have been practicing very hard during this period.

Yu Xuan carefully controlled the temperature of the elixir fire with one hand, and controlled the elixir liquid in the furnace with the other hand, slowly forming a regular red ball.

As the excess water was evaporated by the Dan fire, the red ball continued to shrink.

Time passed quickly, and soon half a quarter of an hour had passed, and the ball was completely solidified.

When Yunxuan saw this, he didn't dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing Yuxuan.

When the small ball was completely solidified, Yu Xuan quickly formed seals with his hands and controlled the Dan fire to burn the small ball again, slowly forming a golden Dan pattern on its surface.

At this point, the pill was successfully refined.

Yu Xuan couldn't wait to take the pill out from the opening on the alchemy furnace. Looking at the Qi-nourishing pill in his hand, he was very excited.

"Yun Xuan! I succeeded!"

He shouted loudly, and when he turned around he found Bai Yuan and Yun Xuan staring at him.

"Uncle Master? When did you come?"

Yu Xuan only then discovered Bai Yuan's existence and was somewhat surprised.

Bai Yuan looked at him with great satisfaction: "I have been here since you were preparing to condense the pill. I didn't expect that you have made such great progress in just a few days. Very good!"

He was generous with his praise, and he saw the efforts of Yunxuan and Yuxuan.

They did not have the talent like Bai Yuan, but through their unremitting efforts and learning from experience in each furnace explosion, they were able to successfully refine the Qi-nourishing Pill in just a few days. Although there was only one pill in this furnace, it was already a good start.

At this moment, Bai Yuan seemed to have seen two rising stars in alchemy!

Chapter 40 I didn't expect you to be so nameless

After being praised by Bai Yuan, Yu Xuan scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

But before they could show their happiness, Bai Yuan put on a serious expression again.

"I am very pleased to see you working so hard, but you can't go without sleep for several days. Look at what you are like now!"

He scolded them like this out of genuine good for their own good.

Of course, it is also because it is not easy to train tool people. Bai Yuan finally found two such good tool people, and he doesn't want them to die because of staying up late.

Yunxuan and Yuxuan lowered their heads, just like children being scolded by their parents.

"Alright, there's no rush to refine the elixir, now everyone go and have a good rest!"

Having said that, Bai Yuan sent the two of them to bed.

Looking at the two people fleeing in a panic, he couldn't help but find it a little funny.

After calling for someone to clean up the alchemy room, Bai Yuan went to the backyard again and saw Wuming instructing Lu in practicing Confucian swordsmanship.

Although Lu was still young, he had already memorized the Confucian sword technique by heart and could use it quite well.

Wuming stood aside, muttering the key points of Confucian swordsmanship, and occasionally helped him correct his posture.

"Confucian swordsmanship emphasizes being open and aboveboard. A swordsman's sword is like his sword. A gentleman is open and aboveboard, and his swordsmanship is upright."

"Confucian swordplay emphasizes accuracy, elegance and power. Accuracy means the sword is accurate and impartial; elegance means the sword is composed and not too vicious; power means the sword follows the heart and is as fast as lightning, leaving the opponent no room for maneuver."

The whole set of swordsmanship consists of only four moves, namely, taking on responsibilities without hesitation, reciprocating, being disrespectful to refuse, and the world belongs to all.

Although it looks simple, it is actually very sophisticated and has both offensive and defensive capabilities.

After performing sword techniques several times in a row, Lu was already sweating profusely, breathing slightly with his mouth open.

"Let's get here first today!"

Wuming went forward and helped him to the pavilion to rest, poured him a cup of warm water, and at the same time used his internal energy to warm his tendons and veins to relieve his fatigue.

They had been sitting here for a while when Lin He came running over.

"My Lord, Lord Xinling is here!"

Hearing this, Bai Yuan and Wuming were slightly surprised.

They thought Xinling Jun would send someone, but they didn't expect him to come in person.
