The little heroine investigates a mysterious case

Zhao Xuan adapted to life in Prince Xian's Mansion quickly, but in Jiaoyang Valley, Hao Xiong was quite worried about his sister whose IQ was sometimes online and sometimes offline.

The stars in the night sky were bright and shining that day. The little medical fairy was boiling medicine on the stove outside the house. Hao Xiong was helping to add firewood and fan the fire while chatting with the little medical fairy.

"They say a mother worries about her son even when he's a thousand miles away, and in my case, it's really my brother who worries even when a sister is a thousand miles away! Tell me, how many days has it been? My sister hasn't even sent anyone back with a message. Has she run into any trouble?"

The little medical fairy opened the lid and stirred the herbs inside slowly and steadily.

"How can you be so free once you enter the palace? Besides, Huahua is good at martial arts, so there shouldn't be any problem."

Hao Xiong became even more worried.

"The real problem is her martial arts skills! Have you ever heard of a princess with such high martial arts skills? I don't think it will be good. The problem lies in her martial arts skills!"

The Little Medical Fairy didn't take it seriously: "With Chunlan and Qiuju by her side reminding her, Huahua will definitely act with caution."

Hao Xiong stood up and threw away the fire stick.

"Why are you making me more worried the more you talk? I'm regretting letting Chunlan and Qiuju go with us. One's a gossipmonger, the other can only count money, but they don't have any real skills! In Jiaoyang Valley, when it comes to acting on opportunities and adapting to changes, who can compare to me? And when it comes to saving lives and facing danger without fear, who can compare to you?"

The Little Medical Fairy took the medicine pot aside and looked at Hao Xiong.

"You've been hanging around me all these days, nagging me non-stop, repeating the same things over and over again, worrying about Huahua this or that. Just tell me, what do you want?"

Hao Xiong chuckled and touched his head.

"I still can't hide it from you. You asked the right question. I want to go to Liyang to find my sister. Will you come with me?"

"Liyang..."

Xiao Yixian repeated these two words, and her face suddenly became a little sad. She picked up the fire stick, squatted down, and poked the burning firewood.

"I don't want to go..."

Hao Xiong immediately squatted beside Xiao Yixiang and tried to persuade her.

"Don't tell me you don't want to go! Think about it carefully before you answer me! Aren't you worried about my sister? She can drink so much that she gets drunk after a little and then even grabs the wine. If you don't give her any, she'll just sit on the ground and act like a spoiled brat. She'll gather everyone together to drink, chat, and play truth or dare. In our family, this would be a family celebration, but in the palace, every action would be treasonous. What if she's accidentally discovered? If people find out she's not a princess of Yue State at all, but the head of Jiaoyang Valley, you can imagine the consequences!"

Little Medical Fairy was a little shaken: "That's a capital crime!"

"That's right! How can I not worry? I want to be by my sister's side, giving her advice from time to time, and she listens to you the most, so we can keep her safe for a while! Otherwise, even if nothing serious has happened now, I think it will happen soon!"

The Little Medical Fairy asked, "If we both leave, what will happen to Jiaoyang Valley?"

Hao Xiong stood up and patted his dusty shirt.

"Of course everyone should do what they should do. Arya has been trained. If there is any disturbance, it will be no problem to have her pass the news to Liyang. I don't worry about the patrol and guarding of the mountains."

The two were discussing going to Liyang when they saw a white figure falling from the sky and instantly appeared in front of Xiao Yixian and Hao Xiong.

This man was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, with a face as handsome as jade. He looked to be in his twenties, with a sword at his waist. He was a handsome young man.

Hao Xiong saw the long sword at the man's waist and immediately stood in front of Xiao Yixian, saying in one breath:

"Which sect are you from? It's endless, isn't it? Is the bounty so easy to get? Let me tell you, our boss has already left! You all are loyal to the principles of the underworld and won't kill innocent people, am I right? When those groups saw our boss was gone, they immediately left!"

The visitor bowed to Hao Xiong and Xiao Yixian.

"I am Li Baiyun from the Xiaoyao Sect."

Seeing that the visitor was sensible and friendly, Hao Xiong couldn't help but think: "The name sounds familiar..."

The Little Medical Fairy walked out from behind Hao Xiong and bowed to Li Baiyun.

"I heard Huahua mention that we fought at the Tiandao League Martial Arts Tournament. I wonder what Young Master Li is here for?"

Li Baiyun said, "I know Huang Huacai has already left Jiaoyang Valley, but hiding like this is not a solution. The Tiandao League will never let this go."

Hao Xiong got angry when he heard this.

"What else do they want? We didn't do those evil things to rob the caravan. It was all framed by the Tiandao League. It was all because the boss became the Evil Slayer to save the lives of over a hundred of us! They boast about their reputation and call them the Tiandao League that upholds justice for all people? Bullshit!"

Li Baiyun nodded.

"I know everything you've said. There's a group of ruthless villains hired by the Tiandao League, and among them is an outer disciple of my Xiaoyao Sect. I've already cleared out the mess for my sect before I came here, but I learned from that villain that the current situation in Jiaoyang Valley is not optimistic. Several suspects arrested by the government have specifically named Jiaoyang Valley as their ancestry. The prefect of Fucheng is preparing to report this to the court, seeking to eliminate them. So, I've come to inform you that Huang Huacai can no longer hide. He must come forward and reach a reconciliation with the Tiandao League to completely resolve the Jiaoyang Valley crisis!"

Hao Xiong was immediately furious: "Aren't you Jianghu heroes always speaking out for justice and helping those in need? You know we've been wronged, so why can't you help us?"

Li Baiyun sighed.

"The martial arts world is the martial arts world, and the government is the government. Besides, I can't interfere in the affairs of other sects..."

The Little Medical Fairy whispered, "I understand! Thank you for coming to report this!"

Li Baiyun said, "Also, regarding the killing order issued by the Tiandao League, I promise that Guigu Sect, Tiejian Villa, and my Xiaoyao Sect will never get involved in this mess! But in the martial arts world, there are many martial arts masters who value wealth as their life and do not distinguish right from wrong. Huang Huacai should be careful. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you can't defeat those people who work together to set a trap! I'm leaving now!"

After Li Baiyun finished speaking, he used his Qinggong skills and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Hao Xiong was stunned.

"Hero! Hero, wait a minute! Why did you just leave like that? I wanted him to help spread the word in the martial arts world that my sister was wrongly accused..."

The Little Medical Fairy said in a deep voice, "Hao Xiong, it seems we have to go to Liyang, and we have to hurry! After we find Huahua, tell her to find a way to go to the Tiandao League no matter what. Nothing can happen to Jiaoyang Valley!"

The next morning, Hao Xiong took Vanilla to a big tree outside the house to bask in the sun as usual.

Vanilla lay quietly on a bamboo lounge chair, her face covered with crisscrossing scars. People who saw her for the first time found it very strange and scary, but Hao Xiong had already gotten used to it.

He brought a bowl of porridge from the stool next to him, carefully fed Vanilla with a spoon, and talked to her at the same time.

"Xiangcan, the people in the Qi Mansion who harmed you have all been beheaded. This is called evil will be punished! You must avenge your great hatred, but you must also live happily and well, understand?"

Vanilla smiled weakly: "I... am just a useless person..."

Hao Xiong interrupted Xiangcao and corrected her, "You are not a useless person! The children in the valley all like to listen to your storytelling. They listen to your storytelling so that they won't run around and make their families worry. This way, their families can focus on their own things. You have made a great contribution!"

Vanilla smiled and nodded: "Brother, if you say it's not, then it's not..."

Hao Xiong continued, "I'm going on a long trip with Little Medical Fairy soon. I've arranged for Aunt San to come and take care of you every day. When I'm not around, you have to eat well, sleep well, and wait for me to come back..."

Vanilla asked hurriedly, "How long will it take?"

"I don't know yet. It depends on the situation. Anyway, I will be back as soon as possible."

As Hao Xiong finished feeding Xiangcao the last mouthful of porridge, he took out a handkerchief and carefully and gently wiped her mouth, but suddenly he saw tears welling up in her eyes.

"Silly girl! Why are you crying? I'm going out on a big errand this time! If everything goes well, everyone's life will get better and better! You should be happy!!"

Hao Xiong reached out to wipe away Xiangcao's tears.

"Xiao Yixian is still waiting for me. I have to go now. Remember what I said. You must take the medicine Xiao Yixian prescribed on time, no matter how bitter it is!"

Vanilla nodded again, and Hao Xiong stood up, waved to Vanilla, and turned to leave.

Vanilla just stared at Hao Xiong's figure as it gradually disappeared into the distance, tears welling up in her eyes again.

Her wounds hadn't healed, and she was growing weaker day by day. Even speaking complete sentences was a struggle. The Little Medical Fairy told her she had sepsis. She asked the Little Medical Fairy how long she could live, and the Little Medical Fairy only said two words: "It depends on fate."

Vanilla understood everything. She didn't have much time to live. She begged Xiao Yixian not to tell her brother. However, her brother was going on a long journey and she didn't know when he would come back. Vanilla wondered, could she see her brother again before she died?
