No one dared to refute, and they quickly returned to the road out of the valley. They didn't see their horses along the way, and they didn't know whether they were ridden away by the people who appeared, or eaten by wild beasts.

Xue Wenyu did not ask anyone to find a horse. Instead, he let everyone rest in an open area, and then asked his men to change the dressing on Shang Xiaohu's wound.

Shang Xiaohu said secretly, if you really care about me, you can just stew your ginseng to nourish me! It would be acceptable if you don't give it to others and eat it yourself.

However, it did not.

Among the nine people who entered the valley this time, only Brother Hui is intact and has no injuries at all.

As for the others, Shang Xiaohu's injury was the most serious, followed by Xue Wenyu and one of Shang Xiaohu's men.

These two were shot by hidden arrows one night. If they hadn't been alert and quick to hide, they probably wouldn't be able to stand with everyone now.

However, no matter whether the injury is serious or not, with the medicine made by Mu Yingbao, although it is impossible to get better immediately, it is very effective in stopping bleeding and reducing inflammation.

None of the injured had a fever, and none of their wounds festered.

No matter what, there were nine people who entered the valley, and there were still nine people when they came out, not one was missing, it was simply a miracle.

When it was just getting dark, they finally arrived at the valley entrance. When the envoy who was guarding outside the valley went to report to the clan leader in the tent, the clan leader thought he had heard wrongly.

As soon as Xue Wenyu and his companions came out of the valley, they saw Luo Yi sitting on a rock outside the valley.

When I heard the noise, I turned around and saw that Brother Hui was safe and sound, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's going on? Is it very uneasy outside?" Shang Xiaohu asked as he saw Luo Yi, who looked much more haggard after only six days of not seeing him.

Luo Yi looked at Shang Xiaohu in confusion, not knowing why he asked that. "Nothing's wrong. You guys seem to be doing fine."

He has been guarding the valley entrance for the past six days. A few days ago, he looked at the first two groups of people leaving the valley with a look of horror on his face.

Later I heard that one of them was bitten by a poisonous toad, and the other one's subordinate was bitten by a poisonous ant.

The chieftain was at the entrance of the valley at the time and was horrified when he saw the condition of the bitten people.

Yesterday afternoon, Zhou Yuanliang and his three men came out.

When people outside the valley saw their depressed expressions, they knew that they had given up and withdrawn.

Although they were rivals, some people were worried about their own people and went to ask Zhou Yuanliang politely, but he simply said he had no comment.

The person who asked the question cursed in his heart, "What are you searching for, you coward who gave up and quit?"

Those who gave up and withdrew from the valley did not even stop, and ordered their own people to set off back.

They left in a hurry, even though they had brought their own doctors outside the valley.

If there weren't five other families in the valley, Luo Yi would really have ignored the rules and sneaked in to see what was going on.

I was extremely anxious, but thinking that there was still one day left, I gritted my teeth and waited. However, before the seven-day deadline, everyone came out, and all of them came out.

Xue Wenyu looked at Luo Yi's expression and suddenly felt uneasy. He felt that this boy had something to hide.

But seeing the clan leader leading several clan envoys, as well as the ministers and representatives who had received the notice and rushed over from the tent, Xue Wenyu had no choice but to hold back and not ask Luo Yi, and went to meet them with Hui Ge.

"Prince Jie, Prince Xue, Young Prince, and Young General, thank you for your hard work." The clan leader was shocked when he saw the situations of these people in front of him.

Since they were able to come out a day earlier, it meant that they had obtained all three items, and all nine people were included. This was really beyond his expectations.

This time, the clan leader also expected Prince Jie to have the best result, which was to get two items at most. Unexpectedly, they came out ahead of schedule, and there was no shortage of manpower. There were some injured, but they were still standing and in good spirits.

How did they do it? Especially, how did they get the thing at the bottom of the lake?

"Thank you for your hard work, Master." Brother Hui stepped forward and saluted the Master, then waved his hand, and Lin Chuan and the other two stepped forward and presented the three items for this mission.

Actually, they got them all? The ministers who just arrived were a little uneasy.

They didn't go in, but looking at the three people who gave up and withdrew in the past six days, you can see how dangerous the situation in the valley is this time.

Before the things were put in, they were all shown it, but no one was told where in the valley they were placed.

Before the new candidates for the throne entered the valley, the two people who were responsible for placing the three items were put under house arrest as soon as they came out. Not only were they under house arrest, they were not even allowed to talk to outsiders.

In fact, there was no chance for conversation, because the chief had warned in advance that anyone approaching within a hundred meters of the tent where the two men were confined would be shot.

"Master Sect Leader, now that the things have been handed over to you, can we go back to Beijing first? Or should we stay and wait until everyone else comes out before we go back?" Brother Hui asked after seeing that everyone who was checking the items nodded to confirm that everything was correct.

It has been nine days since she left. Her mother really wants to stay in the capital and is also worried about her.

The clan leader smiled and said, "Since Prince Jie has completed this competition and obtained all the items, he can naturally return to the capital first without waiting again. I will wait here for them to leave the valley, and then return to the capital together.

Lord Jie, you can go back to your tent to wash up, get some food and rest, and we will set off tomorrow.

Ten thousand

When he heard that he could go back to Beijing without waiting for those people inside, Brother Hui immediately said, "Thank you for your concern, Lord Zongzu. Since I can go back, I will go back first. Then, Lord Zongzu, let's meet in Beijing."

After saying this, although he was in a hurry to leave, he still bowed and nodded to the sect leader.

"So urgent?" a minister spoke up.

"Yes, this lord, you arrived earlier than me. You've been away from home for a few days. Don't you miss home?" Brother Hui asked with a smile. Without waiting for the minister's response, he turned around and walked towards his own tent. Xue Wenyu and others also said hello to the head of the clan and the ministers and left.

"Please stay, my lord. I want to ask you something." The chief hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth.

"Prince Xue, please stay. I have something to ask you." The clan leader hesitated for a moment, but still opened his mouth and shouted.

Xue Wenyu stopped, but he couldn't help it, haha!

"You guys go back and wash up first, get something to eat, and then we'll set off when I come back." Xue Wenyu said to Brother Hui and the others.

He also wanted to return to the capital immediately to see that person.

"Yes, father." Brother Hui responded and walked towards the tent with Lin Chuan and the others.

Luo Yi looked at Xue Wenyu with some worry, and did not follow Brother Hui, but stayed where he was and waited for Xue Wenyu.

"What does the Lord want to know?" Xue Wenyu waited for the clan leader to come over and asked...
