Lei Qianhu, who was standing by, saw this and wanted to have his men take the Imperial Master to the guest room to rest for a while. Unexpectedly, Qi Tianchen gently waved his hand and politely declined, saying, "Since I'm already here, I'd better hand this person over to the right person first."

Changing the subject, he looked at Lei Qianhu and continued, "Master Lei, could you please send someone to invite Young Master Xiao Se to come here?"

Lei Qianhu heard this and naturally did not dare to neglect it. He immediately agreed and quickly arranged for someone to summon Xiao Se. In this way, not long after, Xiao Se and others hurried over and happened to witness everything that happened before their eyes.

From the moment they entered the hall, Qi Tianchen's gaze was fixed on the crowd like a hawk. The most eye-catching among them were Wu Xin and Xiao Se.

He stared quietly at this group of energetic young people, sometimes nodding slightly to show his approval; sometimes shaking his head gently, as if thinking of those unspeakable things in the past.

At the same time, after Xiao Se entered the hall, he also caught a glimpse of the Imperial Preceptor Qi Tianchen sitting there. However, he calmly turned his gaze away.

Meanwhile, Lei Wujie rushed to where Li Hanyi was, his concern evident in his heart. Just as he was about to reach out and touch Li Hanyi, Mo Lvyi, standing nearby, quickly stopped him and whispered, "Wait! Don't act rashly now. Wait until she's recovered."

Upon hearing this, Lei Wujie abruptly stopped in his tracks, but his anxious expression remained undimmed. He stared wide-eyed and anxiously asked, "Sister Luyi, what happened? Why is my sister injured like this? Who did this?" Before he could finish his words, his eyes were reddened, tears welling up in them, threatening to burst out at any moment.

Mo Luyi pointed at Zhuo Qing, who lay sprawled on the ground in a state of disarray, and said coldly, "Here, this is the man. However... I'm sure Xiao Se hates him to the core. You know, the injuries he suffered back then were also caused by this guy. As for how to deal with him, I'll leave it to you to decide."

Upon hearing this, Lei Wujie reached out and grabbed Zhuoqing's robe tightly, exerting all his strength to drag him out the door. Zhuoqing slammed heavily on the threshold, and everyone could only grit their teeth in pain, but Lei Wujie showed no intention of letting go. He lifted him up and put him down after he passed the threshold, still dragging him forward.

Seeing this, Xiao Se, who was standing by, hurried forward a few steps, bowed to Mo Lvyi, and sincerely thanked her, saying, "Thank you, Senior Mo."

Mo Luyi smiled slightly, waved her hand gently and said: "Oh, there's no need to be so polite! After all, this person was not brought back by me. If you really want to thank me, you should go and thank the person over there. He brought this guy back." After that, Mo Luyi looked in the direction of Qi Tianchen.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Se quickly followed Qi Tianchen's gaze and saw him sitting not far away. He straightened his clothes slightly and then walked towards Qi Tianchen at a leisurely pace. When he got closer, Xiao Se bowed again and said slowly, "Thank you."

Qi Tianchen smiled and gently stroked the long beard on his chin, and responded kindly: "Haha, Xiao...Mr. You are so polite. This is just a small favor from me, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!" When Xiao Se heard Qi Tianchen say this, he knew there was no need to say more, so he nodded slightly, said nothing more, turned and walked towards the door.

After leaving the room, Xiao Se quickened his pace, quickly chasing in the direction Lei Wujie and the others had left. He thought to himself that if he moved any slower, by the time he got there, he might only see a cold corpse. Thinking of this, Xiao Se couldn't help but quicken his pace again.

After everyone had dispersed, Qi Tianchen also went to rest. At this moment, Zhao Yuzhen had a thought and was about to reach out and grab Mo Luyi beside him to leave together. Lei Qianhu seemed to have something to say, but before he could open his mouth, Lei Hong had already walked over quickly.

Lei Hong's gaze first fell on Li Hanyi who was sitting on the chair, and then he saw Zhao Yuzhen and Mo Luyi. With just one glance, he keenly noticed that there was an unusual atmosphere between the two of them.

Just as he was about to ask, Li Hanyi, who had been sitting quietly beside him, suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were initially cold and frosty, but when her gaze met Mo Luyi, the chill instantly dissipated, replaced by a gentleness that left Zhao Yuzhen puzzled.

Li Hanyi slowly stood up, nodded slightly to Mo Luyi, and said softly, "Today's matter is thanks to the senior's help. Hanyi is very grateful."

Upon hearing this, Mo Luyi's face blossomed with a smile as bright as a flower, and she responded softly, "You're too kind. It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. Besides, I'm relieved that you're safe now. It's getting late, so we won't disturb you." After speaking, Mo Luyi turned around and nodded lightly to Lei Qianhu and Lei Hong, then turned around and left with Zhao Yuzhen.

After they walked away, Zhao Yuzhen couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Aren't we leaving? Why should we stay longer?"

Mo Luyi smiled slightly, her red lips parted. "Don't worry. The Heroes' Banquet will be held in a few days. I'm sure there will be some wonderful performances. After everything is settled, we will set off to find my brother."

Elsewhere, Lei Wujie dragged the unconscious Zhuoqing back to the quiet courtyard where they lived. Just then, a figure rushed over like a gust of wind. It was Xiao Se. His gaze fixed on Zhuoqing's lifeless face, as if through it he could see the truth hidden behind the fog. A sense of light suddenly appeared.

Lei Wujie threw Zhuoqing to the ground, then picked up a bucket of water and poured it down on his head without mercy. The cold water made Zhuoqing shudder violently, and he slowly opened his eyes and woke up. As soon as he regained consciousness, Lei Wujie rushed to Zhuoqing in a rage, his eyes wide and his face flushed, and he shouted at him, "Tell me! Who sent you here?"

Zhuoqing slowly raised his head, with a hint of disdain and sarcasm on the corner of his mouth. He spat out a mouthful of blood with a "Pooh" sound and said, "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. There is no point in saying more." His eyes were cold and resolute, and he seemed to care nothing about his current situation.
