Time passed quickly, and a month had passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, the Japanese pirates who had committed many crimes were punished accordingly. They were divided into several groups and dealt with one by one. Some of them were beheaded in public; others were subjected to the extremely cruel punishment of being torn apart by five horses; and even worse, some were subjected to the horrifying death penalty of being cut into pieces.

Some people saw the tortures these pirates had suffered, and many of them were so scared that they fell ill. However, when they learned about the heinous crimes these pirates had committed, their fear immediately turned into anger and joy. Everyone shouted in unison: "Great! These pirates are all guilty of death, and they really deserved it!"

After the Japanese pirates were killed, the fate of the girls who survived was still miserable. Most of them had been wantonly defiled by the Japanese pirates and had lost their precious innocence. Some girls were ruthlessly driven out of their homes when their families knew about this, and became homeless; others had no choice but to hide their identities and quietly leave this sad place - Yunzhou City.

The poor women who were driven out of their homes were almost in despair and even nearly committed suicide. Fortunately, the Lin family came to their aid and sent someone to rescue them. They also enthusiastically found a way out for them and helped them find ways to learn knowledge and skills so that they could be self-reliant in the future.

Liu Yuanxi can be said to be the luckiest one among many people. Since she was rescued by Xiaoyanzi, she came to Yunzhou City with her parents and decided to settle here. Not long after, she took her parents to pay homage to her mentor.

When the master and disciple met that day, there was naturally a warm greeting and deep gratitude. Since then, Xiaoyanzi's burden on her shoulders has become heavier. In addition to taking care of the daily life of the disciples of the major sects, she also had to do her best to teach martial arts to her new disciple.

However, human energy is limited after all. Sometimes when Xiaoyanzi really can't spare the time to teach Liu Yuanxi personally, she will entrust her little apprentice to her aunt Huo or other brothers and sisters who happen to be free, and ask them to give some guidance.

Although Liu Yuanxi didn't know the specific identities of these people, she could clearly feel from her daily interactions and observations that each of them had unique skills and was hiding their true abilities. Liu Yuanxi was secretly delighted to be able to receive the guidance of so many masters at the same time, and she studied even harder.

On the other hand, after staying in the Lin Mansion for a while, Xiao Zhihang and his wife resolutely said goodbye to everyone and left Yunzhou City, continuing their journey to track down other pirates. They hoped that they could catch all the pirates in one fell swoop and completely eliminate this scourge before Xiaoyanzi and her group returned to the palace.

Only in this way, when everyone returns to the imperial city together, can they stay in the imperial city peacefully for a long time, wait for their children to get married, and then enjoy their grandchildren and settle down.

During the time he spent with his children, Liu Chenfeng enjoyed the joy of family life. He felt extremely proud and proud as he watched his children grow up and become more and more agile. However, all good things must come to an end. After spending some wonderful time with his children, Liu Chenfeng did not want to stay with his children all the time. He also wanted to do something for his motherland, so he reluctantly bid farewell to Yunzhou City and set foot on his own journey again, wanting to drive those invaders out of his country.

At the same time, the martial arts conference has come to a successful conclusion. Xiao Feng, the young hero, has great ambitions and is eager to continue to venture into the martial arts world and gain more knowledge. What makes him even more delighted is that Qing'er also loves him deeply, and the two can be said to be in love with each other. In addition, Xiaoyanzi and other friends are all free and easy in the martial arts world, so Qing'er naturally does not want to return to the palace alone to live that kind of restrained and boring life. So, after careful consideration, Qing'er quietly left the Lin Mansion with Xiao Feng and went on an unknown journey to the martial arts world together.

On the other hand, An Yaxin had long known that her father was in Yunzhou City. Not long after the martial arts conference ended, she was so anxious that she couldn't wait to drag Benjamin to meet her father. At first, An Qingchen, the leader of the Sword Sect, was quite dissatisfied with his daughter's love affair with a foreign man and firmly opposed the two of them being together. After all, in that era, cross-border love was rare, not to mention the precious jewel in his palm.

However, as the saying goes, "A journey of a thousand miles tests a horse's strength, and time reveals a person's heart." As time went by and she got to know him better, An Qingchen gradually discovered that this foreign man named Benjamin was no ordinary person. He was not only proficient in the elegant arts of playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but also had great martial arts skills, and was fully capable of protecting his daughter. In addition, Benjamin also expressed his willingness to stay in the Qing Dynasty for An Yaxin.

If he wanted to go back to visit relatives and friends in the future, he could bring his family to Great Britain. All these performances finally moved An Qingchen's originally determined heart. After repeated consideration and weighing the pros and cons, he finally nodded and agreed to the marriage and agreed to his daughter's relationship with Benjamin.

When everyone knew his true identity, they couldn't help but think to themselves: A court painter who is so highly regarded by the current emperor must have extraordinary character and ability, and is naturally a trustworthy person.

So, after careful consideration, she finally decided to make a two-year agreement with him. During these two years, before they returned to the palace, if the two of them were still as harmonious and in love as they were now, then they would be allowed to get married.

Benjamin also promised. Before returning to the palace, if he and An Yaxin were still in a good relationship, he would go to Jianzong to make an engagement with An Yaxin before returning to the palace. After returning to the palace, he would personally lead his men to Jianzong to formally propose to An Yaxin.

An Qingchen also set a time. If a month passed and no one came to the Sword Sect to propose marriage, then An Qingchen would regard him as a man without any integrity and not worthy of entrusting one's life to, and would decide without hesitation to marry An Yaxin to an outstanding disciple in the sect.

After the two sides reached a consensus, An Qingchen no longer mentioned the matter of taking An Yaxin back to the sect. At this time, another news came that Luo Junchen actually got along very well with Benjamin and others' best friend, Liu Hong, who had been guarding the ring for many consecutive days and was known as the apprentice of the "Divine Condor Hero".

And according to reliable intelligence, the two of them are very likely to enter the palace of marriage. Faced with such a situation, An Qingchen showed an open-minded and generous attitude and did not obstruct or interfere with their relationship.

As soon as the martial arts conference ended, the four major sects were able to meet Xiaoyanzi and others. When Ye Lan, the leader of the Spear Sect, heard that his daughter Ye Qingyu had changed her name to Ye Qingyu and had formed a deep friendship with Xiaoyanzi and others, he couldn't help but look surprised. You know, An Yaxin, the daughter of An Qingchen, the leader of the Sword Sect, was also among them!

And when Ye Lan learned that his beloved daughter had inadvertently gotten along very well with the young man named Huo Yuqi, and that they even had a hint of affection for each other, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.

However, upon careful consideration, Huo Yuqi not only comes from a prominent family, but also has outstanding abilities. What is particularly rare is that the talent he displays in interpersonal communication is truly amazing.

After all, if you count his identities, few people can compare to him. His great-grandfather was the former leader of the martial arts world, his father was the leader of the Qinglong Pavilion, his mother was the leader of the Divine Doctor Valley, he himself was the owner of the Yunji Villa, and even his junior sister was the current leader of the martial arts world. His friend was the number one hero in Jiangnan and the apprentice of the Condor Hero...

In this way, Ye Lan knew that he could not stop him from continuing to associate with his daughter. After all, looking around, it would be difficult to find another young talent who could compare with him.

At this time, the leader of the Gun Sect, Lu Yao, and the abbot of the Buddhist Sect looked at the other two leaders with envy. It was because their daughters could be friends with Xiaoyanzi and her group. Such an opportunity really made others jealous!

However, in that fleeting moment of contact and communication, they keenly realized that each other's identities were not ordinary people. Despite this, these people seemed to deliberately keep a low profile and did not reveal their true identities to the public.

Time flies, passing by in a flash. In a blink of an eye, all the people from the three major sects and the Buddhist sect have left, far away from the prosperous and bustling Yunzhou City.

Liu Qing has always been eager to go out and gain experience, but at the same time, he can't give up the idea of ​​roaming the world with Huaye. After careful consideration and with the approval of Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, the two finally stepped out of Yunzhou City resolutely, plunged into the vast world, and began to write their own legendary chapter.

Liu Hong and Luo Junchen are both full of longing and yearning for the world. But the difference is that Luo Junchen is always worried about his delicate and lovely junior sister An Yaxin. Facing the worries of his senior brother, An Yaxin comforted him: "Senior brother, don't worry too much. I can go with Benjamin and venture into this vast world together. With him protecting me, no one will dare to bully me easily." Hearing this, Luo Junchen still hesitated again and again. Finally, after a long period of thinking and weighing, he made up his mind to join hands with Liu Hong to embark on the road of the world and bravely meet the unknown challenges and opportunities.

As for Yongqi, Benjamin, Erkang, Ertai and others, since they originally left the palace with Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, they naturally planned to return to the palace together when the time came and continue their life in the palace.

Therefore, this group of friends have no intention of separating, but choose to stick together and go through every journey of life together.

Mu Yunzhi and Anyaxin were eager to travel the world with Xiaoyanzi and others, so they did not part ways and resolutely followed this huge team.

On the other hand, since Huo Yuqi met Ye Qingyu last time, when he heard that Ye Qingyu was about to return to Dao Sect, he said goodbye to his family without hesitation and followed her footsteps. He wanted to increase the chances of getting along with Ye Qingyu, and also hoped to venture into the world of martial arts with her.

A month passed quickly, and the team that originally had more than 20 people was now reduced to only eight people, four men and four women.

In the past month, Xiaoyanzi has been very busy. She is either on the road of learning and studying, studying various skills, or she is constantly saying goodbye to her relatives and friends.

Although she knew that every separation was for a better reunion in the future, every time she said "goodbye", she would still feel a pang of sadness in her heart. After all, the journey was long and it was not easy to meet again.

However, even so, Xiaoyanzi's heart is still full of longing and expectation. This is because they have already made a two-year agreement together - two years later, they will meet in the imperial city! This is not only an agreement between them, but also a tacit promise of everyone.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Xiaoyanzi has spent another month in the Lin Mansion. During this time, she eagerly absorbed all kinds of knowledge, and with her extraordinary intelligence and perseverance, she mastered those complicated knowledge one by one. Now, she feels that she has learned all the knowledge she needs, so she resolutely decides to leave the Lin Mansion and embark on her new journey.

Xiaoyanzi has great ambitions in her heart, and she longs to travel the world with like-minded friends. In addition to being chivalrous and helping the poor, she also vows to do her best to capture the hateful Japanese pirates and protect the peace of the country and the happiness of the people. Not only that, she also plans to lead other sects to launch a thrilling battle of pursuit and interception against those evil Japanese pirates.

At the same time, Ziwei, Mu Yunzhi, Anyaxin, Erkang, Yongqi, Benjamin, Ertai and others are also looking forward to the journey that is about to begin. Each of them has their own dreams and goals, but they are closely united by a common belief.

However, it is worth mentioning that only half a year has passed since they made the remarkable three-year agreement with the emperor. Despite this, in this short time, they have never forgotten their relatives far away.

Whenever it was late at night, homesickness would surge in their hearts. So, they picked up their pens and wrote affectionate letters to their parents at home, telling their families what they had seen and heard outside, expressing their endless concern and longing for their loved ones.

They believed that it would not be long before they would be able to return home, but in the meantime, they hoped to experience more interesting things and to describe them to their families when they returned to the palace in two years.
