The good deeds of Lin Xiu and his companions spread throughout the entire realm, and the people felt profoundly grateful to them. However, Lin Xiu and the others knew that this was merely another mission in their ongoing protection of the world, and that many more challenges awaited them in the future. Carrying the blessings of the people, they embarked on their journey once more, continuing to guard the peace and tranquility of this world.
After leaving the plague-stricken realm they had saved, Lin Xiu and his companions stepped onto a winding mountain trail. Wildflowers blossomed wildly on both sides of the road in a riot of brilliant colors, swaying gently as a breeze swept past and releasing waves of sweet fragrance that brought a touch of comfort to their weary spirits. Lin Xiu walked at the very front of the group, his gaze fixed firmly on the distance while the Astral Dawn Sword at his waist swayed gently, as if whispering of former glories and triumphs. Alice followed close behind him like a spirited young fawn, light on her feet; from time to time, she reached out to stroke the roadside flowers before glancing up at Lin Xiu, her eyes filled with deep affection and admiration.
"Lin Xiu, look how pretty these flowers are," Alice said softly, her voice crisp and melodious like a mountain spring.
