Yang Shishi, standing to one side, felt a touch of embarrassment. She was the only one who hadn't gone on the trip to Yiyun Town, and she felt like the odd one out, completely disconnected from the group. But there was no helping it; her father had placed her under house arrest, forbidding her from leaving Shushan.
After guiding the others, Meng Fan checked in on young Shu Changsheng’s sword techniques before taking his leave. On his way back to the Sword Pavilion, he passed by Li Xuerou’s quarters. To his surprise, he found that despite having only just returned the day before, she had already gone into secluded meditation again!
This... Meng Fan shook his head helplessly; he could roughly guess what was going on in her mind. This trip to Yiyun Town had seen Li Xuerou set out with firm intentions to kill Liu Chen in revenge, only for her to realize the massive gap between their strengths and suffer a blow to her confidence. Now, she was surely bottling up that frustration and trying her best to grow stronger.
