"Wenjun, don't be afraid, I'll be back soon!"

After saying this, Ye Dingzhi flew out and started fighting with the group from Tianwaitian.

"Madam, if it comes to the point where my life hangs in the balance, please help me. I know my husband wants to become strong, but I'm afraid of what might happen."

Yi Wenjun's expression was full of worry, while Tang Yu smiled as she looked at the earth-shattering fighting outside.

"Don't worry, with me here, even if he gets beaten up and is covered in wounds, he won't die."

Ye Dingzhi was fighting against dozens of experts from the Outer Heavens alone, one of whom was the Formless Venerable Envoy, one of the Four Venerable Envoys. Naturally, he was having a very hard time.

However, Ye Dingzhi was exceptionally talented, growing stronger with each battle and even breaking through his own limits during the battles, which was practically feeding him moves.

"It's actually the Illusion Technique?"

When Ye Dingzhi was beaten and pushed to the limit, he suddenly used a technique that Zhao Yuzhen muttered to herself.

Having become possessed by a demon, Ye Dingzhi absorbed everyone's power and then suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Zhao Yuzhen quickly flew forward and brought Ye Dingzhi over.

"Is this demonic possession? I thought there were no demonic arts in this world. This is good, finally it's balanced."

Tang Yu smiled and reached out to heal Ye Dingzhi's injuries. Yi Wenjun, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but look surprised when she saw Ye Dingzhi recover immediately.

When Ye Dingzhi regained consciousness, he was somewhat surprised, because he knew that he had gone mad with qi deviation.

But now there are no problems, which made him subconsciously ask Tang Yu and Zhao Yuzhen.

"It seems it was the two of you who saved me again. Why can't I feel any injury at all?"

"Because I cured you, the technique you're practicing is quite interesting; it can absorb a person's internal energy."

Tang Yu's tone was calm and indifferent, and Zhao Yuzhen showed no signs of wariness. Ye Dingzhi then asked with a smile.

"Won't you all despise me for practicing this demonic art?"

"Some people take up a sword to kill others, acting on behalf of Heaven and helping the weak and punishing the strong. Others take up a sword to kill others, harming the innocent and committing numerous evils, deserving to be punished by everyone."

The former's sword is drawn for the sake of the common people; its edge points to injustices in the world, and it is used by those who act as accomplices to evil.

The latter turned the sword in his hand into a murder weapon, wantonly trampling on life.

If these two people are using the same sword, should we blame the sword for being defective?

"Ye Dingzhi, if you can absorb the internal energy of these wicked people every time, and reduce the number of evil people in this world, even if this technique takes a shortcut, you will still be a great hero!"

Of course, in the realm of martial arts, taking shortcuts will inevitably lead to some backlash.

But the same principle applies to everything in this world: all those who take shortcuts will encounter difficulties, and you must solve your own difficulties.

Whether practicing this technique is right or wrong depends entirely on what kind of person you want to be in this life. Don't limit yourself.

Upon hearing this, Ye Dingzhi seemed to suddenly understand something, and he had an epiphany on the spot.

"He's incredibly strong; he's almost at the Divine Ascension Realm!"

Zhao Yuzhen affirmed from the side.

"What, are you envious? Didn't your cultivation level also improve after you entered that illusion? You're very powerful now too."

"It's not that I'm envious, it's just that I feel that you can only truly experience the full spectrum of life after you come down from the mountain."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Yuzhen couldn't help but turn to the side and steal a kiss on Tang Yu's cheek. Yi Wenjun, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh.

By the time Ye Dingzhi broke through, his aura had completely stabilized, and he had a smile on his face.

Then, he personally bowed to Tang Yu and Zhao Yuzhen.

Then, Ye Dingzhi couldn't help but tell the story of the Ye family.

The Ye family once pledged allegiance to the royal family, but in the end, the entire Ye family was executed.

He used to harbor so much hatred, and now that he has broken through, that hatred has resurfaced in his heart, which he finds a little strange, even though he understands that this is him facing himself honestly.

"If one day I want revenge, would it be good or bad for the world?"

"Do you intend to rebel and establish a new country, or simply kill members of the royal family—and will you kill them all, or just the few who harmed your family?"

Tang Yu's question left Ye Dingzhi unable to find the answer for a while.

He didn't know which choice was right or wrong.

However, given his current peaceful state of mind, he felt it was better to take revenge, otherwise it would be a lifelong inner demon.

"I don't know, I just feel that one day I will do something."

Tang Yu turned to Zhao Yuzhen and asked her a question.

"How many years has the Northern Li royal family been established?"

"It seems to be more than two hundred years ago."

The others didn't understand why Tang Yu asked that question. Tang Yu turned to Ye Dingzhi and smiled.

"There is no dynasty that lasts for three hundred years. You should be able to see the Northern Li royal family perish in your lifetime. One day someone will rebel, and the world will be a new dynasty."

You can then help a wise ruler establish a new world, which can also be considered revenge.

If you intend to rebel, you must first accumulate strength, but even if you succeed, you must benefit the people before you can truly establish a new world.

"If you don't have such great ambitions, then you don't need to care about the rise and fall of dynasties. Just hone your martial arts skills, kill those enemies, and choose your own life."

Ye Dingzhi instantly revealed a relaxed expression, as if all the repression of so many years had been answered at this moment.

In the eyes of others, rebellion and revenge might seem like a burden to the entire nation.

But the person's answer made him realize that this was a very normal thing and not something he should feel guilty about.

Although he broke through to a higher realm today, Ye Dingzhi knew that his realm was still unstable.

More than ten days later, they were finally going their separate ways, and Ye Dingzhi said this.

"I know you two are good people, but please try not to reveal that you know me in the future, so as not to cause you any trouble."

And I might not even go to Nanjue; perhaps I'll travel around instead.

Tang Yu understood what the other party meant. Ye Dingzhi neither wanted to cause trouble for the two of them nor wanted outsiders to know where the couple had gone.

"Don't worry, we'll meet again someday."

After saying this, both sides clasped their hands in a gesture of respect.

Ye Anshi looked at Tang Yu with sparkling eyes, and Tang Yu gave him another peach.

“Little Anshi, grow up happily. If you want to see us in the future, Qingcheng Mountain can send us a message.”

The two sides then parted ways, and Tang Yu and Zhao Yuzhen finally arrived in Snow Moon City ten days later, where they met Baili Dongjun.

Chapter 20, "The Young Swordsman's Journey," is now complete.

In fact, Baili Dongjun had already gone to Gusu, but he didn't see anyone and didn't know what had happened.

So Baili Dongjun could only return the way he came, thinking of asking around to find out what had happened, since he couldn't find any clues.

The arrival of Tang Yu and Zhao Yu brought a sigh of relief to Baili Dongjun, as he received a letter from Ye Dingzhi.

In the letter, Ye Dingzhi truthfully revealed Tianwaitian's intentions and also admitted to killing Yueqing.

He also said that he and his family would leave the north to live in a safe place, and he apologized for not being able to see his friends and asked Baili Dongjun for his understanding.

Ye Dingzhi did not make any promises in the letter about whether they would meet again in the future, because he did not know, so it was a farewell letter.

"As long as they can still be happy together as a family, that's good enough."

Baili Dongjun sighed, also feeling that this was the most appropriate ending.

Ye Dingzhi lost his family when he was young, and he should live a happy life in his later years, otherwise God would be too cruel.

"My two heroes, I am truly grateful for your help in escaping danger. I am deeply thankful for it."

We understand that you two are planning to visit Snowmoon City. The entire city of Snowmoon will certainly welcome you with the warmest of hearts. Please do not hesitate to ask for your assistance with food, clothing, lodging, transportation, or any other needs.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuzhen smiled and asked a question.

"We've heard that Young Master Baili is skilled in brewing wine, and my wife and I are quite curious about it. We wonder if Young Master Baili would be willing to part with his wine?"

Baili Dongjun laughed heartily and then invited the two of them to his courtyard. He had his servants prepare delicious food and brought out various wines that he had brewed himself.

Zhao Yuzhen has been traveling for almost a year and has gotten used to traveling to different places and making friends.

After drinking together, he and Baili Dongjun became sworn brothers!

Men are too easily able to build rapport at the dinner table, and Baili Dongjun's various wines are full of unique characteristics. Tang Yu was helpless on the side; he was sure to get drunk.

Too lazy to listen to the two's endless chatter, Tang Yu flew out to admire Snow Moon City, which was indeed a beautiful place.

When Zhao Yuzhen was half-drunk, the two were already very familiar with each other's relationship, and Baili Dongjun's lover, Yueyao, even came over.

Then he shook his head at the two men, not wanting to disturb them as they continued drinking.

Seeing that Baili Dongjun also had someone he liked, Zhao Yuzhen asked him a question unconsciously while drunk.

"Brother Baili, have you ever brewed a kind of wine that is drunk when men and women are in love?"

Baili Dongjun's face was flushed from drinking, and he said he didn't understand.

What is a moment of joy?

Zhao Yuzhen laughed embarrassedly.

"I want to drink a kind of wine that evokes tender and romantic memories, like a gentle and intoxicating wine that brings endless joy..."

Then Baili Dongjun understood, and his ears turned red as well.

"I've never thought about brewing this kind of wine before. It should be very interesting. I must brew it in my lifetime, and then I'll treat you to a drink!"

The two smiled at each other, then suddenly said goodbye and went to find their own loved ones.

In the warm room at night, Tang Yu helplessly held the drunk man in her arms.

"I've never seen you so drunk!"

Zhao Yuzhen smiled foolishly.
