Seven days had passed since Gui Ying left the Gui Clan's secret realm. When the final toll of the golden bell echoed through the secret realm, Feng Xiyan finally stood up from the cold floor.
Looking at the two bronze mirrors submerged beneath the hot spring, his eyes were devoid of emotion.
After a brief moment of silence, Feng Xiyan put on the clothes prepared by Gui Ying and left the spiritual hot spring.
Outside, Gui Di had been waiting. Clasping his fists, he bowed and greeted him respectfully, "Great General Feng."
Feng Xiyan looked up at the bright sky and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is Gui Ying?"
Gui Di was silent for a long time before answering, "My Young Master has left."
Receiving this answer, Feng Xiyan asked again, "Those bell sounds… were they because of him?"
Gui Di's jaw tightened slightly, but he still replied, "...Yes."
Hearing this, Feng Xiyan fell silent.
Gui Di remained in a bowing position while Feng Xiyan continued to stare at the sky.
