The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Tuoba Yu looked exhausted, her red and swollen eyes were filled with sadness, and she had been guarding Wan Henghua's body for a whole night.

The next day, she pulled herself together and began to prepare for the burial.

When she dealt with Sang Yunlei's body, a trace of determination and disgust flashed in her eyes. She threw the body aside without hesitation, thinking to herself: "You hateful person, you don't deserve to be properly settled."

Tuoba Yu tried hard to make herself look sad, and she announced in a hoarse voice that Wan Henghua died of a sudden illness.

The villagers watched her busying around with the funeral arrangements and were all talking about it.

An old man with gray hair stroked his beard and said, "This Tuoba Yu is really filial."

When Tuoba Yu heard these compliments, he felt mixed emotions.

As she sorted out the funeral items, she silently said in her heart: "This is the last thing I can do for him, but who can know the grudges and hatreds involved."

Her face had just the right amount of sadness to it, leaving no trace of flaws, but deep inside she was sighing deeply for the complex emotions of the past.

The funeral process was finally completed and everything was settled.

That afternoon, the sunlight was a little dim. Tuoba Yu stood in the center of the village, and her figure seemed a little lonely.

She took a deep breath and said to the villagers in a calm but slightly sad tone: "I am leaving this place."

She raised her head slightly, her eyes sweeping across the familiar faces, "After all, I'm not Wan Henghua's biological daughter."

After hearing this, the villagers nodded in understanding.

An old lady came up to her, took her hand and asked, "Where are you going, kid?"

Tuoba Yu shook her head gently, her eyes full of confusion. She thought to herself: "This world is so big, but I don't know where my destiny is."

Her expression was filled with hesitation about the unknown, and she just said, "I don't know either."

After saying that, she turned around resolutely, put on her simple bag, and started walking out of the village.

Each step was a farewell to the past. Her back gradually went farther and farther in the afterglow of the setting sun, and gradually disappeared at the end of the road.

Only the villagers were left standing there, looking in the direction she left and sighing.

Tuoba Yu walked in a daze, her eyes were empty and confused, her mind was in a mess, and she had no idea where to go.

Fortunately, she still had some money on her, so she wasn't too desperate in this vast world.

Night gradually fell and everything around was shrouded in darkness.

She was walking mechanically on the road when she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves.

She looked up and saw a young man riding a horse. However, something unexpected happened in an instant, and the young man suddenly fell off the horse.

Tuoba Yu's eyes widened in surprise, and her mouth opened involuntarily. She was panicking, thinking, "What should I do?" She hurriedly ran towards the young man.

When she approached and squatted down to check, she found that the young man had no breath and his body was gradually becoming cold.

Her face turned pale, and she touched the young man's carotid artery with trembling hands, confirming that he was dead.

Her eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, and she murmured to herself: "How...how could this happen?"

She looked around frantically, as if hoping to find someone to help, but there was only endless darkness and silence all around.

Tuoba Yu stood up and sighed helplessly. She thought to herself, "I don't even know what to do, so how can I have the energy to care about other people's lives?"

Her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of confusion and fatigue.

She was about to continue walking forward when an idea suddenly flashed through her mind. Her eyes lit up and she said to herself, "Oh, isn't this horse ready-made?"

A conflicted look appeared on her face, and she began to struggle in her heart: "I need a horse for traveling now, and the owner of the horse is dead. It's not too much for me to take the horse away, right? But isn't it a bad idea to do so..."

She bit her lip and hesitated for a moment.

Eventually, the instinct for survival and the desire to move forward took over.

She walked quickly to the side of the horse, reached out and touched the horse's mane, and whispered: "Horse, horse, your master is gone, just follow me."

There was a hint of guilt in her eyes, but more of it was the expectation that she could go further with the horse.

Tuoba Yu turned over lightly and mounted the horse, holding the reins tightly with both hands.

When the horse started to move, she was surprised to find that she seemed to be particularly good at riding, and her body could rise and fall with the horse's pace freely.

The horse was not shy and carried her obediently as it moved forward steadily.

Tuoba Yu's face was filled with a bright smile. She was filled with joy and thought, "God is really helping me. I didn't expect that I would have such a talent for riding a horse, and this horse is so humane."

She patted the horse's neck excitedly and said loudly, "Horse, let's go out and explore together."

Her eyes were sparkling, full of anticipation for the future journey. On horseback, she seemed to have found new hope and courage, and her previous confusion and hesitation were temporarily dispelled by this joy.

In the Taoist temple in Kunlun Mountain, Taoist Master Qingfeng and Taoist Master Mingyue sat opposite each other.

In front of them was a quaint tea table, with the aroma of tea rising from it.

Taoist Qingfeng picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and slowly said, "Mingyue, do you still remember the incident with Prime Minister Xi Yu?"

Taoist Mingyue nodded slightly, stroked his beard and said, "Of course I know. Now the world is getting better and better under the leadership of Prime Minister Xi."

Taoist Qingfeng's eyes were filled with admiration. He looked into the distance, as if he could see the prosperous and stable scene below the mountain. He said, "Prime Minister Xi is indeed a man of great talent. He cares about the world and the policies he promotes are all beneficial to the people's livelihood. He has made an indelible contribution to the prosperity of the world today."

Taoist Priest Mingyue nodded slightly and agreed: "Yes, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and have a prosperous life. I really hope that this peaceful and prosperous era can continue forever."

The faces of the two Taoist priests were filled with relief. Standing high in the mountains, they felt sincerely happy for the stability of the world.

Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue were immersed in the drama about the Prime Minister when a little Taoist boy ran over in a hurry.

The little Taoist boy panted and said with a red face: "Master, it's bad! There is a woman at the foot of the mountain who trespassed into the forbidden area. Her attitude was very bad and she even fought with several patrolling Taoist boys."

Taoist Qingfeng frowned, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he thought: "Who is so bold as to trespass into the forbidden area of ​​Kunlun Mountain?"

He put down the teacup, stood up, and asked seriously, "Where is that woman now?"

The little Taoist boy hurriedly replied: "She is still in the forbidden area. Several fellow disciples are trying to stop her. But that woman seems to have some skills. They can't stop her any more."

Taoist Mingyue's face also turned gloomy. He stroked his beard and said, "How dare you act so wildly? Let's go and take a look."

As he spoke, he and Taoist Qingfeng looked at each other, both of them had anger in their eyes, and they walked quickly towards the forbidden area.

Along the way, Taoist Qingfeng thought to himself: "Who is this woman and why would she do such an unreasonable thing?"

Taoist Mingyue had a serious look on his face, ready to teach this ignorant woman a lesson.

Tuoba Yu rode her horse at full speed. She had no clear destination in mind and just let the horse carry her forward.

Unexpectedly, I ran to Kunlun Mountain all of a sudden.

Several Taoist children saw her and immediately stepped forward to stop her. One of them frowned and said loudly, "This is a forbidden area in Kunlun Mountain. Leave immediately."

Tuoba Yu looked confused. She really didn't know this was a forbidden area. She replied angrily, "I didn't know we couldn't come here. Why are you so fierce?"

The two sides started arguing with each other.

Tuoba Yu felt aggrieved and thought, "I was just passing by, I didn't do it on purpose, why are these Taoist children so unreasonable?"

The Taoist children thought she was unreasonable, as she was pestering them even though they had clearly told her to leave.

Finally, the argument became more intense, both sides lost their tempers, and started fighting on impulse.

Tuoba Yu fought back and shouted, "I'm not a bad person, why are you doing this?"

There was anger and grievance in her eyes, and the Taoist children were not to be outdone, and the two sides got into a chaotic fight.

Several little Taoist children retreated to the side, their faces covered with dirt. Some covered their injured arms, and some rubbed their legs. Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue were filled with anger when they saw this scene.

Taoist Qingfeng opened his eyes wide and asked loudly: "Who are you, you hateful woman? How dare you act so wildly here!" His voice echoed in the mountains with unquestionable majesty.

Tuoba Yu crossed his arms in front of his chest, with a stubborn look on his face, and responded loudly: "I was just passing by here, and it was those Taoist children who were particularly rude to me."

Her eyes were gleaming with dissatisfaction, and she thought to herself: "It was them who drove me away without any reason, and they even said I was unreasonable."

Taoist Mingyue frowned, looked at Tuoba Yu carefully, and said: "Even if the Taoist children did something wrong, you shouldn't hurt them."

Although his tone was not as harsh as Taoist Qingfeng's, it was also full of blame.

Tuoba Yu curled her lips and muttered, "If they had spoken to me nicely, why would I have done that?" Her face was full of grievance and she felt that she was wronged.

Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue looked grim. Taoist Qingfeng asked sternly, "Tell me, who are you?"

Tuoba Yu frowned and replied nonchalantly: "I don't know."

Taoist Mingyue snorted coldly: "Humph, don't tease us here."

After saying that, the two of them flashed and attacked Tuoba Yu.

Tuoba Yu was greatly shocked. While defending herself, she thought to herself, "How come these two are so powerful? I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a loss today." Her eyes revealed panic, but she still gritted her teeth and held on.

Taoist Qingfeng's palm wind was fierce, and he shouted: "Don't tell the truth!"

Tuoba Yu hid and shouted: "I really don't know who I am. I have lost my memory."

But the two Taoist priests refused to believe it and their moves became more brutal.

Tuoba Yu gradually couldn't hold on any longer and was soon hit, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

She frowned painfully, looked at the two Taoist priests, and said with a gasp, "Why don't you believe me?"

Taoist Qingfeng was furious: "You little thief, you are still quibbling."

Taoist Mingyue also said: "If you don't tell the truth, don't blame us for being merciless."

Tuoba Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and a trace of stubbornness and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

She looked at the two Taoist priests and said loudly, "I really didn't lie to you. I really don't know who I am or where I came from."

Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue looked at each other. They still had some doubts in their hearts, but when they saw Tuoba Yu's embarrassed and serious look, they also felt a little shaken.

Taoist Qingfeng frowned, then softened his tone and said, "Then why did you come to Kunlun Mountain? And why did you attack the Taoist boy?"

Tuoba Yu leaned against the horse, panting, and replied: "I was riding my horse and ran around, and I came here unknowingly. The Taoist children asked me to leave without saying anything. I just said a few words to defend myself, and they attacked me, so I fought back."

Taoist Mingyue stroked his beard, thought for a moment and then said, "No matter what, you hurt my Taoist boy from Kunlun Mountain. You can't just let it go like this."

Tuoba Yu's heart tightened. She bit her lip and thought to herself, "Are they going to continue to embarrass me? But I am seriously injured now and I am powerless to resist."

Her face showed pain and despair, and she said, "So what do you want?"

Taoist Qingfeng pondered and said, "Come with us up the mountain and recuperate in the Taoist temple. At the same time, we will investigate your background."

Tuoba Yu nodded helplessly. She knew she had no other choice but to follow their arrangements for the time being.

After Tuoba Yu agreed to go up the mountain, Taoist Qingfeng frowned even more tightly, and he narrowed his eyes, full of suspicion.

"Why did you agree so readily? Do you have some other ulterior motives, or some hidden purpose in wanting to get closer to Kunlun Mountain?"

Tuoba Yu said loudly: "You just wanted to keep me here, why are you saying this now? I don't want to be wronged by you."

Her eyes were gleaming with anger as she continued, "I'm worried about having no money to eat. Wouldn't it be better for me if you took me in on the mountain? I just want a place to stay, where I can heal my wounds and have a good meal. There's no point in going through all the twists and turns you're thinking of."

Tuoba Yu dragged his tired and injured body and walked straight up the mountain.

Her back looked somewhat stubborn on the mountain path.

Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue stood where they were, quietly watching her back as she gradually went away.

Taoist Qingfeng stroked his beard, and his slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed. He thought to himself: "Looking at her current appearance, she really can't cause any trouble."

Taoist Mingyue nodded slightly and said, "She is seriously injured. I don't think she would dare to act rashly on this mountain. But we still need to be more careful."

The two Taoist priests talked in low voices while walking slowly behind Tuoba Yu.

Tuoba Yuze walked in front and muttered, "It's really troublesome, but it's better than wandering outside."

Her eyes scanned the surrounding scenery, and her heart was filled with curiosity about the Kunlun Mountains.

The night is as deep as thick ink.

Xi Yu sat quietly at the desk, the candlelight casting a flickering shadow on his face.

He rubbed his tired forehead and thought of the nightmares again. Those gloomy, horrible, and entangled nightmares made him exhausted.

He prayed silently in his heart: "Please don't have nightmares again today, otherwise I really can't stand it."

His eyes were filled with a desire for peace, a hope from the bottom of his heart to escape the torment of nightmares.

However, in the deepest part of his heart, there was another voice. How he wished he could have a dream, a dream of Tuoba Yu.

He leaned back in his chair, his eyes gradually becoming gentle and a little sad.

He whispered in his heart: "Tuoba Yu, where are you? How I wish I could see you in my dreams."

His fingers tapped the table unconsciously, as if this could convey the longing in his heart.

He was in deep entanglement. On the one hand, he was afraid that the nightmare would strike again, but on the other hand, he was full of expectations for the dream about Tuoba Yu.

These two emotions kept interweaving and colliding in his heart, making his heart feel like it was tangled in a tangled mess.

In the simple inn, Zhao Yun and others stayed with Chachatu temporarily. At this time, they were not far from Youzhou.

Along the way, Chachatu was unexpectedly honest and showed no sign of wanting to escape.

However, Zhao Yun did not relax at all.

He paced back and forth in the room of the inn, thinking to himself: "Although this Chachatu seems honest now, we must not take him lightly."

Zhao Yun solemnly ordered his men, "Strengthen the guards and keep an eye on Chachatu. His current quietness may only be superficial. Once we let our guard down, he may take the opportunity to escape."

The men responded in unison: "Yes, General."

They quickly set up sentries at key locations in the inn, and pairs of vigilant eyes were closely staring at the room where Chachatu was.

Chachatu was alone in the dim room, surrounded by silence.

In the first few days of his journey, his mind was filled with thoughts of escape.

He paced back and forth in the room, his eyes fixed on the tightly closed window and the door that seemed difficult to break through, thinking to himself: "I must find a chance to escape."

However, as time went on, he realized that under the strict supervision of Zhao Yun and others, there was no possibility of escape for him.

He sighed helplessly and slumped down on the simple bed, his eyes full of despair. He thought to himself: "Forget it, this road of escape is not feasible."

He lay on the bed, looking at the mottled ceiling, and new thoughts came to his mind.

He murmured to himself, "I just hope that when I see Xiyu, he can forgive me."

The early morning sun was blocked by thick clouds, and the sky looked a little gloomy. Zhao Yun walked out of the room, looked up at the lead-gray sky, and frowned.

He felt the air was filled with dampness, and a heavy rain seemed to be coming. (End of this chapter)
