Today was the day the members of the Hengshan Sect who had been away were finally returning, and everyone gathered at the mountain gate to welcome them. Word had arrived that the Hengshan Sect had suffered heavy losses, and even Master Dingjing had fallen.

Sister Yiqing had specifically come to ask Yilin—who had been sequestered in the back mountain for over half a year—to join them at the gate. During these six months, Yilin’s hair had grown to only about five centimeters in length.
