The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor

When Li Muxia saw Jun Mochen dislocate the man's jaw, she wanted to remind him that there was no need to do so. He was completely unable to bite through the poison sac right now, and they would have to set his bones during the interrogation later. However, Jun Mochen acted too quickly, and Li Muxia could only swallow the words she hadn't said.

After the battlefield was cleared, Dongfang Jincheng ordered the news of the assassination to be kept secret, which was overheard by Li Anjin and Li Anran who had just arrived.

The two quickly stepped forward to check if Li Muxia was injured. After confirming that Li Muxia was unharmed, Li Anjin turned around and said, "Your Highness Prince Rui, Lord Jun, such a thing happened here, and Muxia and Ran'er are both a little frightened. It is not appropriate for the three of us siblings to stay here any longer. Thank you for your hospitality today, Your Highness Prince Rui. Anjin will take his leave with his sister."

Dongfang Jincheng glanced at Li Muxia. Although he wanted to persuade her to stay, it was indeed not appropriate to continue now. Although he felt a little regretful, he could only look for another opportunity.

He said somewhat apologetically, "The three of you have suffered this calamity because of me. I will host a banquet for you another day as an apology."

Upon hearing this, the three exchanged a few polite words and then took their leave.

However, Dongfang Jincheng was worried about the dangers on the road, so he sent a team of guards to escort the three of them away.

Li Muxia had witnessed such bloody scenes on the battlefield with her mentor in her previous life, so she wasn't particularly scared. However, Li Anran was clearly terrified, her face pale and bloodless, and she was obviously trying her best to suppress her fear. Of course, how could a young lady from a sheltered family have ever seen such a scene?

He came to Li Anran's side and put his arm around her shoulders to offer silent comfort.

When the three siblings got into the carriage, Li Anran finally couldn't hold back anymore and cried on Li Muxia's shoulder.

Li Muxia and Li Anjin offered more words of comfort. After all, he was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child; how could he not be afraid?

However, as they approached the entrance to the General's Mansion, Li Anran stopped crying. After all, she had promised His Highness Prince Rui to keep the assassination a secret, and she couldn't let her family find out anything.

Li Muxia helped Li Anran fix her makeup and hair before the three of them got off the carriage and entered the mansion.

Dongfang Jincheng and Jun Mochen had the black-clad man's corpse delivered to the Blood Fiend Sect's stronghold in Kyoto—Yayuan Teahouse—in the middle of the night, where it was neatly arranged in the teahouse's backyard.

When the night watchman opened the door in the morning and saw fifteen corpses neatly arranged in the courtyard, he was startled. Upon inspection, he found an envelope on the leader of the men in black.

When the waiter opened the package and saw the line of text written on it, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground. He immediately sent a message by carrier pigeon to inform the sect leader.

However, this was merely a challenge from Dongfang Jincheng to the Blood Fiend Sect; the real battle had not yet begun.

When the leader of the Blood Fiend Sect received the letter, he saw the following line: "The Blood Fiend Sect dares to attack members of the royal family; they will bear the consequences."

Sure enough, within the next month, all of the Blood Fiend Sect's strongholds in the Eastern Kingdom were shut down by the government for various reasons. The key was that the evidence was conclusive and irrefutable. All the people in the strongholds were arrested, and the day after they were arrested, they all committed suicide by biting open poison sacs in prison.

With this, the Blood Fiend Sect completely disappeared from the Eastern Kingdom. This was a significant loss, and it remains to be seen whether the sect leader will regret his decision.

News of the Blood Fiend Sect's complete annihilation in the Eastern Kingdom also reached the other two countries. The royal families of those two countries were somewhat worried that the Blood Fiend Sect had broken the rules this time and might try to take advantage of the royal families of those two countries in the future.

Therefore, both countries began investigating the Blood Fiend Sect's strongholds within their own countries and tried their best to suppress them. However, they were not like the all-knowing Shadow Pavilion, so how could they possibly know all of the Blood Fiend Sect's strongholds?

So, although a few strongholds were eventually wiped out, which had some impact on the Blood Fiend Sect, everyone knew that the Blood Fiend Sect must still have many strongholds hidden in the shadows. After all, it was an organization that had been established for forty or fifty years, so how could it be destroyed so easily?

However, the courts of the three kingdoms simultaneously issued a decree prohibiting assassin organizations from then on, stipulating that anyone found in such organizations would be killed without exception.

Originally, the imperial court and the martial arts world were independent of each other and did not interfere with each other. If a family was wiped out in the martial arts world, the imperial court would intervene. However, once it was found that it was done by people in the martial arts world, the matter would be handed over to the leader of the martial arts alliance to be resolved by them. People in the martial arts world generally adhered to the attitude that matters in the martial arts world should be resolved in the martial arts world and rarely had contact with the imperial court.

Following the Blood Fiend Sect's assassination attempt on the royal family, the imperial court has reconsidered its stance on the martial arts world, showing a strong intention to reclaim it. However, this is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it requires a gradual and methodical approach.

These past few days, even the leader of the martial arts alliance has been extremely troubled by this matter, and he hates the Blood Fiend Sect to the bone. He has issued a decree: "Martial arts practitioners must not be enemies of the imperial court, or they will be hunted down by all the major sects of the martial arts world."

Finally, he went to the Three Kingdoms to handle the aftermath.

First, he went to the palace of the Southern Ling Kingdom and promised the emperor that he would reorganize the martial arts world. Then he set off for the Dragon Soaring Kingdom and finally planned to go to the Eastern Kingdom. Of course, these are all stories for later.

Li Muxia, of course, knew nothing about these things.

She's been very busy these past few days, and she's even put the search for Long Ziheng out of her mind.

The next day, Li Muxia had the endorsement contract delivered to Prince Rui's residence for Prince Rui to sign.

Dongfang Jincheng had been quite busy these past few days, so he hadn't gone to see Li Muxia. After signing the contract, he had it delivered to Li Muxia. He needed to finish dealing with the Blood Fiend Sect matter as soon as possible so he could attend the restaurant's opening ceremony.

Jun Mochen, on the other hand, would occasionally visit Xianke, sometimes chatting with Li Muxia and having hot pot. Of course, he knew that Li Muxia would be quite busy these days, so he never stayed for very long.

On the third day, Li Muxia received a reply from Master Huizhi of Lingshan Temple, saying that he would personally come to Xiankelai to hold a Dharma assembly. This news made Li Muxia happy all night.

So, in the following days, she had people spread the word about Master Huizhi's Dharma assembly throughout the streets and alleys. As expected, everyone was even more excited about the opening of the Xiankelai Restaurant, and at the same time, they were all wondering what kind of person the owner of the Xiankelai Restaurant was, that he could actually invite Master Huizhi.

On the fourth day, the restaurant's break finally ended. In the past few days, she had handed over the hot pot recipe to the chef who had signed a contract with the restaurant, and had also made a lot of hot pot base, which was stored in the restaurant's ice cellar.

With the restaurant's opening date drawing ever closer, Li Muxia plans to personally visit Lingshan Temple to invite Master Huizhi.

So, Li Muxia prepared early that day and set off with Hong'er and Cui'er. At the gate, she met Li Anran, who looked at Li Muxia with some grievance and said, "Sister, are you planning to leave me alone again? No way, I don't care. No matter what you say, I'm going with you today."

Knowing that she had been very busy these past few days and had no time to spend with Li Anran, Li Muxia, seeing the row of guards at the door, agreed to let Li Anran take her to Lingshan Temple.
