I was killed by my relatives, and I am reborn to be ruthless.

"Stop! He Ronger, you clearly did this on purpose!" Seeing He Ronger was about to leave, Xi Ruxin hurried forward to block her way, her voice full of anger and unwillingness.

He Ronger stopped and turned around, looking at Xi Ruxin calmly and deeply: "Intentionally? Why would I do that? This medicine is originally mine, and I have the right to decide where it goes. If I say intentionally, it is just to let you see your greed and short-sightedness. Elder Xi, you should reflect on yourself."

After saying this, she ignored Xi Ruxin's attempts to stop her, hugged the marten, and left resolutely.

When He Ronger's figure gradually disappeared from his sight, He Kangcheng's face darkened. He glared at Xi Ruxin hard. His eyes showed disappointment in Xi Ruxin's judgment and deep regret for missing out on the precious elixir.

"It's all your fault. You were blinded by the little profits and insisted on getting entangled in those talismans. As a result, such a rare elixir slipped away from you for nothing!" There was a hint of blame in his tone, but more of it was the regret that was hard to conceal.

He Kangcheng felt mixed emotions.

For so many years, he and his junior sister Xi Ruxin have jointly been in charge of the Medicine Peak of the Qixuan Sect. They have a respected status and abundant resources, but they have never been able to make any breakthrough in refining half-step high-level elixirs.

Although they possessed countless precious medicinal materials and ancient secret methods of alchemy, the extremely subtle refining techniques and control of the temperature seemed to be an insurmountable gap, which repeatedly frustrated their efforts.

Recalling the past few days, in order to obtain a half-step high-level elixir to enhance the strength of the sect, they did not hesitate to use the connections they had accumulated over the years, and even spent a huge amount of money to buy one from Master Yuan Liang.

However, although the elixir was good, due to the limitations of their own skills, some of its efficacy was accidentally damaged during the research process, which greatly reduced its value.

This feeling of failure still bothers He Kangcheng to this day.

Now, the opportunity was right before their eyes, but because of their deep-rooted prejudice and misunderstanding of He Ronger, this batch of precious half-step high-level elixirs passed them by.

Looking at the direction where He Rong'er left, He Kangcheng felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. It was not just about losing the elixir, but also a cruel irony of the stagnation of their alchemy skills.

"My flesh hurts, it really hurts!" he muttered to himself, with a hint of bitterness and unwillingness in his voice.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Xi Ruxin felt as if her heart was hit by a huge rock, and the emotions surging in her heart were far more complex and heavy than those of He Kangcheng.

She had never expected that He Ronger, who in her eyes was just a mediocre person with a weak character, had now reached such an astonishing level in alchemy and was able to refine half-step high-level pills. This was a transformation that was simply like a fairy tale.

She recalled the determination and indifference she had shown when she signed the breakup letter just now, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable pain and regret in her heart.

If she had known that He Ronger would achieve such success, she would have stopped the signing of the letter of severance at all costs.

At this moment, Xi Ruxin's face was extremely ugly. She bit her lower lip tightly, trying hard not to let her emotions get out of control.

But her clenched fists revealed her inner struggle and unwillingness.

It felt as if thousands of bugs were gnawing at her heart, and the regret and self-blame spread throughout her body like poison, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

"How could I...how could I make such a big mistake..." Xi Ruxin murmured to herself, her voice as thin as a mosquito, but filled with endless regret.

She knew very well that this letter of severance not only severed the blood relationship between her and He Ronger, but also made her lose a talented alchemist who could become the glory of the sect and even change the fate of the entire family.

The three brothers following behind the couple all had heavy worries on their faces, their lips tightly pursed, and their eyes revealed deep helplessness and self-blame.

They exchanged worried glances from time to time, and every shake of the head was accompanied by a heavy sigh, as if they were regretting the missed opportunities and lamenting the difficulties they were about to face.

Originally, they gathered here with the most sincere intentions, discussing how to approach He Ronger tactfully and respectfully to ensure her safety.

However, this sudden change completely ruined their plans.

He Ronger had resolutely signed a document to sever ties with them. This determination, like a basin of cold water in winter, extinguished all their hopes and enthusiasm, and also made the rift between them particularly glaring.

Faced with He Ronger's obvious dissatisfaction and alienation, they knew that trying to easily save the relationship would be like rowing against the current and would be fraught with difficulties.

But even so, the deep affection that the three brothers had for their sister did not diminish in the slightest.

They looked at each other, without saying anything, their determination and perseverance were all written in their eyes. It was a determination to protect the one they loved even if the whole world misunderstood them; it was a courage to support their sister even if the road ahead was bumpy.

So, in silence, they made a common decision.

There were no excessive words, no fancy words, just three backs, appearing exceptionally resolute under the dazzling sunlight, slowly turning around and embarking on their journey home.

Although their steps seemed heavy, each step was taken with extraordinary determination, because they already had a clear goal in their hearts - to return to their respective places of practice and practice diligently day and night.

Just so that one day I can stand in front of He Ronger again with a stronger attitude and prove my change and determination with practical actions.

In their view, the most powerful weapon to protect their loved ones from harm is to improve their own strength.

This determination is not only a promise to He Ronger, but also a redemption and transcendence for himself.

They believed that as long as they worked hard enough, they would be able to win He Ronger's understanding and recognition one day and become her strongest support again.

After everyone left, Xu Chong came in angrily from the back door. He looked at the backs of He Kangcheng and his wife as they left and spat, "Bah, you are not even qualified to be Rong girl's parents!"

Zou Mubai and Fei Xiuwen jumped down from the eaves and walked briskly towards the inner courtyard, but were stopped by Xu Chong: "Hey, it turns out you two have been eavesdropping upstairs!"

Zou Mubai turned around and glanced at him without saying anything.

Fei Xiuwen smiled as if the spring breeze was blowing on his face: "We just wanted to see how Xiao Ronger would deal with it. Now it seems that the result is quite good."

Xu Chong snorted coldly.

Although he didn't like the performance of the He family, he was still very satisfied with the result.

As long as she cuts off her relationship with the He family, Rong Yatou can focus on her cultivation in the future, and will definitely be able to stand at the top of the strong in the end.

Xu Chong was thinking when Zou Mubai walked past him and turned back to say, "Let's go. We need to say goodbye to Rong'er."

"We? What do you mean? Where are we going?"
