After the Great Elder and the others left, a drizzle began to fall from the sky. Lin Dan’s bones were all broken, and she couldn’t move, so she could only lie in the rain, but even so, the fine, hairlike rain threads couldn’t touch her at all. Bai Yan used his immense inner strength to erect a barrier for her, isolating the cold wind and rain.
“Your skill is far above that of a Grandmaster, what realm are you in now?” Lin Dan stared at the barrier that was like clouds and mist, and asked curiously.
“Probably a Martial Saint.” Bai Yan always held her powerless hands.
“Martial Saint?” Lin Dan’s eyes lit up.
Bai Yan nodded and said: “That’s right, there is a Martial God above the Martial Saint, and what is above the Martial God, that is unknown.”
“It can be known, as long as we keep going forward, we will know someday.” Lin Dan was full of confidence in the future, and her eyes were brighter than usual.
Bai Yan seemed to be pleased by the word “we” and chuckled: “That’s right, we will know someday. Lin Dan, after cultivating the Asura blade, do you ever regret it?”
Lin Dan shook her head without thinking: “If there is no choice, how can there be regret? If I didn’t cultivate, I would have died, it would be better to live a life that is worse than death. You may not know, I am an orphan, and I was picked up by the old sect master since I was a child and trained as a death warrior. He threw us into the mountains and forests to fight with wild beasts, if we didn’t kill, we couldn’t survive. We finally escaped the beast’s mouth, but we had to kill the companions who had fought side by side with us, under the guise of severing ties and eliminating weaknesses. We had nothing to eat, nothing to wear, and every day we opened our eyes, what faced us was death. We couldn’t rely on anyone, couldn’t believe anyone, we were more lowly than ants, and more humble than dust.”
Lin Dan took a breath and continued: “If you don’t want to be trampled on, you must become strong. I have no other choice, so there is no talk of regret. I am not like you, from a prestigious family, with excellent qualifications, and countless resources without needing to ask for them. I am the mud in the ground, if I don’t fight, I will be crushed into dust.”
Speaking of the past, Lin Dan had no anger or unwillingness, only a calm heart. She was suffering severe pain every moment, but she was still alive, and she was living with dignity, that was enough.
Bai Yan, however, showed an extremely heartbroken expression, and said hoarsely: “But I regret it. If I had known you earlier, if I had discarded my prejudice, you wouldn’t have become what you are now.”
Lin Dan smiled faintly and shook her head: “The path is chosen by oneself, no one is to blame.”
Bai Yan was silent for a moment, and finally closed his eyes in pain. After a while, he took out a porcelain bottle filled with water, slowly fed it to Lin Dan, and comforted her softly: “This is the special nectar of Lianyung City, one bottle can relieve hunger and quench thirst. You are not convenient to eat now, I will feed you a bottle every day, and your wounds will also heal faster. You are dirty, I will have them wipe your body later, and change a set of clean clothes, that will be more comfortable.”
He wiped the water stains from the corners of Lin Dan’s mouth, and looked at her silently for a long time, before turning his head to look at the few female disciples.
They came in a hurry, and hadn’t brought umbrellas, and now they were already soaked, but they didn’t even dare to breathe. They had always revered the city lord, and knowing that he was the only Martial Saint in the Eastern Tang Continent, they were even more afraid to look him in the face.
He Yufei, relying on the fact that she had once shared adversity with Bai Yan, stepped forward and said: “Master, I have something to say to you, can you come over?”
Bai Yan looked at her deeply, and then walked aside, and asked: “What do you want to say?”
“Master, Lin Dan cultivates a demonic skill, if you protect her, it will cause dissatisfaction among the people of the world. You must not…”
Bai Yan cut her off before she could finish: “He Yufei, what position are you speaking from today? You are now the saintess of the Eastern Saint Cult, because Lin Dan is famous, you are now respected when you go out; you were also once her maid, protected under her wings, and never suffered the bullying of the Eastern Saint Cult disciples; furthermore, she also saved your life, allowing you to avoid being harmed by the evildoers. Your identity, status, and even your life, are all given to you by her, anyone can say that they will kill her, but by reason, only you can’t!”
He Yufei’s advice was all blocked, and she opened her mouth for a long time before spitting out a stiff sentence: “But Master, I am doing this for your own good! You are the head of the righteous path, upright and bright, why do you have to get mixed up with Lin Dan and ruin your lifelong reputation.”
“Then why do you have to be the saintess of the Eastern Saint Cult… the acting sect leader?” Bai Yan didn’t even look at her, and said coldly: “He Yufei, I was mistaken in the past, I thought you were pure in heart and kind in heart, and that you were a good seedling worth cultivating. Fortunately, you have not performed the apprenticeship ceremony, you can leave now, and in the future, do not act in the name of the Eastern Saint Cult, and don’t even wave the banner of Lianyung City. Compared to the great villains, I despise those who forget their kindness more.”
He Yufei wanted to persuade again, but was sent down the mountain by Bai Yan’s palm wind. After a while, Lianyung City and the Eastern Saint Cult each received a letter from Emperor Yan, rejecting He Yufei’s identity. She could neither return to Lianyung City, nor could she go to the Eastern Saint Cult, and she fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley in an instant.
Lin Dan didn’t know about these things, she recovered quickly under Bai Yan’s careful care, and was preparing to leave Kunlun the next day.
Bai Yan followed behind her, and asked with a smile: “Where do you want to go?”
Lin Dan pointed at the beautiful mountains and rivers under the clouds and said: “First tour the Eastern Tang Continent, eliminate demons and devils, and then go out to sea to go to other continents.”
Bai Yan said again: “Then, do you mind if I be your companion?”
“Are you willing to part with your Lianyung City?”
“Willing, why wouldn’t I be willing?”
“Then let’s go!”
Lin Dan waved her hand, and Bai Yan smiled and followed. He knew that Lin Dan had long cut off her love, but he was willing to spend a lifetime to accompany her. When he looked back on the Qing River, he saw the cultivation technique that Lin Dan practiced, and thought that meeting himself was the other party’s tribulation, but he didn’t expect that in the end, Lin Dan instead became his tribulation.
But he not only didn’t want to resist, but was also happy to be so.
Peerless under heaven, only you are without equal…

Postscript:
With Bai Yan as the guide, Lin Dan quickly broke through the barrier and became the second Martial Saint of the Eastern Tang Continent. She was not as unapproachable as other peerless masters, but instead loved to stand up for justice, and over time she became famous and respected. In order to closely attach themselves to her, the Eastern Saint Cult also dared not do evil, but often helped the nearby people, completely whitewashing themselves into a prestigious sect.
However, the 《Asura blade》 hidden in the cult was stolen by someone, and it was not recovered after ten years, and it became a case.
In a remote mountain forest in the Eastern Tang Continent, He Yufei, relying on hatred and unwillingness, finally cut off her love and refined the Asura blade to its peak. Recently, she often had the same dream, in the dream, she and Bai Yan, who concealed his identity, got along day and night, not only successfully became his disciple, but also became attached to him during their long-term relationship and became a couple. Bai Yan had almost passed on all the top-level skills he knew to her, allowing her to climb to the peak of martial arts day by day, and finally became a legend of the Eastern Tang Continent. In contrast, Lin Dan was absorbed by He Chongling into a dried-up corpse, and her bones were gone.
But after waking up, she had to face the cruel reality, she was the pitiful one, and Lin Dan had long become the existence that everyone looked up to.
She thought that after her divine skill was accomplished, she would issue a challenge to Lin Dan, and let Bai Yan take a good look at what he had missed. But she never expected that after practicing the Asura blade, she would have to endure the pain of a thousand cuts every moment, which would never stop. She couldn’t bear it as soon as she was promoted to Half-step Grandmaster, and she rolled around on the ground while screaming, like a madman.
She swung her knife wildly, and found that operating her inner strength would reduce the pain a little, so she hurriedly ran out to find someone to fight. But in order to avoid people’s eyes and ears, she had practiced a demonic skill, and she had specially found a primitive jungle as her base, and there wasn’t a single person within a radius of a hundred thousand miles.
She rapidly operated her inner strength and ran wildly in the jungle, but this only made herself feel a little better, the pain of a thousand cuts still existed, and tormented her nerves every moment. She simply couldn’t imagine how Lin Dan had endured it. In those years, she could eat, sleep, and all her actions were no different from ordinary people, but the cultivation technique she practiced was clearly the same as her own, it was the Asura blade! He Yufei realized then that the Great Elder had said that Lin Dan would go crazy sooner or later, and her own willpower was not worth mentioning compared to Lin Dan’s.
After running in the jungle for only two days, He Yufei was already wishing for death. She swung her knife wildly, and howled, and her eyes, which were originally clear, were now covered with bloodshot eyes. After struggling for two more days, she couldn’t defeat the invasion of the death Qi, and died with her veins exploding. She didn’t even have time to walk out of this jungle and let the world see her martial arts.
Many years later, someone accidentally entered the forest and found her bones and the volume of… the 《Asura blade》, stained with bl00d, but with clear handwriting…

Although Ding Mujie was the chief assistant and held the power of the court, he was holding a tablet tightly when he died, full of regrets. Before his death, he silently thought: If he could start over, he would not have followed Lin Dan’s path and been forced to marry her, nor would he have watched Lin Wan marry the cruel and ruthless King Kang, and from then on, he would have wasted his life.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was not in the underworld, but walking on a path of flowers. A small servant was leading the way in front, and kept turning his head to apologize: “Young Master Ding, it’s all because of my clumsy hands and feet that I neglected you, and I hope you, sir, will not blame me. The Linshui Pavilion is ahead, it is specially for male guests to rest, and there are also brand new clothes inside, you should quickly go in and change your dirty clothes, so that you don’t catch a cold. I still have something to do, so I won’t send you there, can you walk by yourself?”
Ding Mujie immediately recalled that wasn’t this scene exactly the one that had changed his fate? Although this servant was a subordinate of Marquis Jiang, he had already been bought by Lin Dan and deliberately splashed wine on his clothes, then led him into the Linshui Pavilion to be locked together with Lin Dan, who had been waiting there. After not seeing her daughter return for a long time, Madam Lin had implored Madam Jiang to bring her to find her, and they just happened to catch the two of them in the room.
He couldn’t deny it, and had to withdraw his marriage with Lin Wan, and instead marry Lin Dan. Others all said he was scheming and coveted power, abandoning the marriage with a concubine’s daughter to marry the Lin family’s legitimate daughter, which was considered taking advantage of everything. However, who could have imagined that this scene had originally been designed by Lin Dan. She had admired him for a long time, often sending some nonsensical letters, and despite knowing he was the betrothed of her half-sister, she still pestered him endlessly.
No matter if it was a dream or an illusion now, Ding Mujie was not going to get entangled with Lin Dan again.
