Qinghe Town was the most remote town in Dongshan Prefecture, located at the very end of the winding Qinghe River, hence its name.
In a dilapidated residential courtyard in the eastern part of the town, Fourth had waited with the little sister for three days, but the people they were waiting for ultimately never came.
Fourth knew in his heart that they would probably never come. From now on, he would no longer be the youngest brother protected and cherished by all his elder brothers. Now, he was an "elder brother" himself, and he had to protect his little sister—who could not cultivate immortality—keeping her safe from bullying so she could grow up in peace and happiness.
