Remember, you didn't kill your senior brother, nor did you kill your master. There are always so many accidents in this world.

If you founded the Four Gates and failed to eliminate any bad guys in time, resulting in even more bad guys killing people, would you blame yourself?

You're just a martial arts prodigy, not the savior of the world. You haven't wronged so many people. Remember what this old woman said..."

From then on, Li Xiangyi stayed on Yunyin Mountain to accompany Qin Po.

From summer to winter, it wasn't until after the New Year that Li Xiangyi decided to set off again.

"If you can fight for your feelings, don't end up like this old woman who regrets it for the rest of her life. Since Miss Qiao is looking for you, don't miss out again..."

Li Xiangyi smiled and shook his head.

“Master’s wife, I’m not running away from fear now. As for the matter between Miss Qiao and me, it’s true that I didn’t know how to be considerate and caring for each other when we were young, but in fact we’re not suitable for each other.”

Miss Qiao needs a lover who is always by her side, someone who won't put pressure on her, frighten her, or make her worry...

As for me, I'm not that considerate and gentle, and I'm not very qualified to be a lover.

But now I understand, whether it's the people at Sigu Gate, Miss Qiao, or anyone else.

The fact that they felt pressured wasn't my problem; it was just that we weren't a good match. We weren't a good match as friends, and we weren't a good match as lovers either…

Li Xiangyi probably didn't understand this matter before.

However, after visiting Peach Blossom Manor several times, he could clearly sense that Manager Tang got along very well with the people there.

Even someone as capable as Manager Tang didn't put pressure on those around him, which was undoubtedly because Manager Tang was better at interpersonal relationships than him.

But it also means that his relationship with those like-minded people was not as good as he imagined, otherwise no one would have poisoned him, and so many people would not have been so indifferent after his death.

If he cared about the four gates, perhaps he could change his personality. But he no longer cares about these things, so why should he change his personality and compromise to beg them to turn back?

As for Qiao Wanmian, Li Xiangyi knew that his personality was no longer as arrogant and conceited as before, and he would no longer ignore the feelings of those around him. Perhaps he could be a considerate lover.

However, no one can go back to the past.

He made Qiao Wanmian exhausted and in pain. Does he think that being considerate and gentle now can mend their broken relationship?

Li Xiangyi was even certain that he would spend most of his time searching for his senior brother and then traveling the world, because he now loved the freedom and vastness of the world.

He now wants to see more beautiful scenery, drink more exquisite wines, and eat more delicious food...

He seems to have many, many things he wants to do, both in the past and present, and in the future.

Love is passionate and unforgettable, but it never seems to be the top priority.

So he went to say goodbye, so that the other party would no longer feel guilty. From now on, he was free, and Qiao Wanmian was free too. Neither of them should feel guilty towards each other anymore.

That spring, Li Xiangyi secretly met with Qiao Wanmian.

Qiao Wanmian was happy to learn that Li Xiangyi was still alive.

The two were finally able to formally apologize to each other, forgive themselves, and forgive each other.

Next, Li Xiangyi went to see Master Liaowu.

Master Wu Liao was very happy to learn that Li Xiangyi had been cured of the poison.

“Benefactor Li, I never expected you to have such a miraculous encounter. I knew you were not destined to die.”

Now that you're cured, would you like to have your identity restored? This old monk can vouch for you.

Li Xiangyi smiled and shook his head.

"The knot in my heart has been untied, but I really only want to be Li Lianhua now. Monk, thank you for saving me back then. From now on, I will take care of myself and cherish my life."

The Four Gates Sect had already disbanded, and I didn't want to have anything to do with them anymore. I'm also a person with a temper.

"Don't misunderstand, monk. Don't think I still want to work with them. Actually, I don't even want to see them."

"I also want to enjoy life freely in the future. I still have so much life ahead of me, why not do more things that bring me joy?"

Master Wuliao clasped his hands together and smiled.

"Since Benefactor Li has already figured it out, this old monk will no longer try to persuade him. That's fine."

Chapter 10 Lotus Tower 10

Afterwards, Li Xiangyi gathered herbs and went hunting, helped several wealthy merchants recover their lost treasures, solved several cases, caught a womanizer, and took on some small cases that could be paid for. He successfully earned a thousand taels of silver from a group of wealthy merchants.

So at the end of that summer, Li Xiangyi came with a thousand taels of silver to pay off his debt.

"Your master is not here?"

"The master has gone out to travel. Doctor Li, if you need anything, you can leave a message and we can pass it on when the master returns."

"It's nothing serious. I originally came to repay the money, but your master isn't here. So, I'll trouble you to pass on this thousand taels of silver to her later..."

After finishing this task, Li Xiangyi set off on a journey across the country, using his Lotus Pavilion as a prop.

On the Double Ninth Festival, Tang Yu went directly to Yanzhou to climb to the top of Mount Tai, intending to watch the sunrise there.

After a long and agonizing night of waiting, finally, a dazzling orange-red hue slowly seeped out from the distant horizon.

Gradually, the orange-red color became more and more intense, just like a furnace of molten iron being heated to boiling point, seemingly about to completely melt the entire sky.

Immediately afterwards, a red sun suddenly leaped over the horizon, and in an instant, thousands of golden rays pierced through the deep darkness with unstoppable force, illuminating every corner of the world as bright as day.

Just then, the sea of ​​clouds, illuminated by the sunlight, presented a breathtaking and magnificent sight. The snow-white sea of ​​clouds surged and undulated, resembling a dreamlike fairyland.

Tang Yu opened her arms, then closed her eyes and began to fall.

Suddenly I want to experience the feeling of falling among the clouds; perhaps the clouds on the top of Mount Tai will be very beautiful.

"Manager Tang, you mustn't take your own life!"

Halfway down, Tang Yu was suddenly pulled back by someone. He looked at the person who had suddenly appeared, speechless.

"You advised me before that life is full of disappointments, so why can't you let it go now that it's happened to you?"

You are young, beautiful, free, happy, and wealthy now, why give up your life for something painful?

Tang Yu stared speechlessly at the person in front of her, then suddenly pulled hard, grabbing the other person and pulling them straight down.

Li Xiangyi exclaimed in surprise, but the next second, layers upon layers of sea of ​​clouds had already spread out in front of him.

The two of them traversed through the clouds, their vision blurred, as if they were completely enveloped by the clouds. With each breath, they could feel the coolness and moisture of the mist.

It's like a bird flying through the clouds, sometimes completely obscured by thick clouds, surrounded by white mist, and sometimes breaking through the clouds to reveal a bright and open view.

The golden sunlight shone on me, warm and bright, as if I were in a beautiful fairyland.

Even after flying up from the clouds and returning to the mountaintop, Li Xiangyi's heart was still trembling.

"I'm sorry, I was so foolish to think that Manager Tang was going to commit suicide."

Tang Yu smiled helplessly.

Who would have thought the other person could imagine so many things?

"What brings you here? Aren't you very busy?"

"Go wherever you want, play wherever you want, eat wherever you want."

After seeing the aurora last time, I decided to see all the beautiful scenery I hadn't seen before, so I happened to come here.

Tang Yu could clearly sense that Li Xiangyi's temperament had become more gentle and open-minded, and the bitterness of the past had completely disappeared.

He may have suffered greatly from illness in the past, and his expression always carried a sense of depression and heaviness.

However, the gloom of the past has now vanished without a trace, replaced by a gentle and bright state emanating from within.

His eyes were no longer dull and lifeless, but shining brightly. They were neither the ambitious and spirited youthful eyes, nor the melancholy and docile eyes that had been worn down by poisoning.

Rather, it is genuinely gentle, magnanimous, peaceful, and grand.

"So, have you paid back the money?"

"You're so bored you're starting to go out and have fun, you should at least pay off your debts," Li Xiangyi laughed at these words.

"I've already returned it. Actually, I went to Peach Blossom Village, but you weren't there..."

It turns out we missed it.

Since Tang Yu no longer needs to worry about the business at Peach Blossom Pavilion, he no longer stays in one place but prefers to travel around.

The world is vast and boundless, but there are no relatives she needs to care for, nor any lovers she wants to cherish.

Now, even the sisters in Peach Blossom Pavilion have had their futures properly arranged by her.

So Tang Yu had nothing to do for a while, so he could only look around and enjoy the beautiful scenery to pass the time.

"But I haven't heard any news of Li Xiangyi coming back to life in the martial arts world. Don't you want to be Li Xiangyi anymore?"

“That’s right, I don’t want to be Li Xiangyi anymore. I want to live a brand new and different life.”

"Then treat me to a meal today. Li Lianhua, who has recently become rich, do you have the money to treat people to a meal?"

These words made Li Xiangyi laugh.

"You saved my life, I'd rather borrow money than not treat you to a meal."

After descending the mountain, the two went to a nearby restaurant for a meal.

After a hearty meal, Li Xiangyi asked the question that had been on his mind.

"When Manager Tang detoxified me that day, he did it so quickly that I still don't understand how he did it. It seems to be a very special martial arts technique."

"It is very special. It was originally created to heal people, and only people with special physiques can cultivate it, so it is rare in this world."

"There is another question, which may be a bit presumptuous. If Manager Tang is unwilling to answer it, that's fine, as this question is rather private."

Did Manager Tang use a wig to help her style her hair?

"Pfft!" Tang Yu couldn't hold back and spat a mouthful of wine directly at the person in front of him.

"I'm sorry, but you really shouldn't have asked this question while I was drinking."

Having lived this long and met so many people, this is truly the first person to ask her such a question.

"Perhaps I pay more attention to details. During my several meetings with Manager Tang, the hairstyles were different each time. Some hairstyles required a lot of hair, while others were relatively simple."

Based on my experience, those elaborate hairstyles must have required wigs, but I felt that Manager Tang's hair was real, which made me quite curious.
