Chapter 2230

Yan Aohan spoke next. "I received news a few days ago. Elder Yao was assassinated and severely injured. He is dying. You must return."

Zhu Yanyi’s face changed slightly. She sighed. "It has come to this. One dies, then another is hurt."

"You should go see him off," Yan Aohan said calmly. "But before you return, refine the General’s Token first."

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "That is why you brought me here to gather herbs."

"Yes. This place is best for refining the token. No one expects you to do it now," Yan Aohan explained.

Sometimes, doing the opposite of what enemies expect yields unexpected results.

Zhu Yanyi did not refuse. She looked at Yan Aohan. "I will enter the space. When I come out, I want roasted rabbit meat." She meant he should prepare the food.

"Okay." Yan Aohan nodded. He always agreed to his wife’s requests.

Zhu Yanyi smiled faintly. With a thought, she vanished, entering the space to refine her General’s Token.

Yan Aohan caught two wild rabbits as ordered. He slowly began roasting them outdoors, waiting for Zhu Yanyi to emerge.

Inside the space, Zhu Yanyi took out the General’s Token. Although she had bound it with her blood, she had avoided using it. Now, she knew she had no choice. Her family needed her protection.

Zhu Yanyi sat on the ground. She held the token in both hands. She used her aura and ice-blue energy to begin the refinement.

Refining the token was not difficult. It had already recognized her as its master. However, it required the bloodline of Zhuge descendants. Zhu Yanyi’s surname was Zhu, but her bloodline was a distant branch. Still, the Zhuge bloodline remained. Refinement was only a matter of time.

In the space, time was not a concern.

Half a month passed in the space. Zhu Yanyi finally refined the General’s Token. From then on, the token was her, and she was the token. During the process, she learned that the token was not just a badge. It contained instructions on how to use it.

The General’s Token had many functions beyond its appearance.

Zhu Yanyi exited the space. She glanced at Yan Aohan, then sat cross-legged again. She placed one hand above the other, then opened them sideways. A token appeared between her hands. Zhu Yanyi spoke slowly.

"I command as the Master of the General’s Token. From now on, the bloodline of all my Zhuge descendants shall be hidden. Unless I verify it personally, no one can detect it. Immediately shield the bloodline from heavenly secrets."

As she finished speaking, the General’s Token emitted a yellow light. It shot straight into the sky.

The silver fox, holding Little Northwest, suddenly saw a ray of light enter the child’s forehead. A dragon-shaped mark appeared on Little Northwest’s forehead, then vanished.

"Bloodline hidden," the silver fox said, slightly stunned.

Ouyang Mingyue also saw it. She looked surprised. "Yan Hou has refined the General’s Token."

The silver fox nodded slightly. "Refining it now suggests trouble in the mortal realm of Huaxia."

Ouyang Mingyue looked at the silver fox. "Are you going to that mortal realm?"

"No." The silver fox shook her head. "That is the main stage for Yanluo and her wife. Why would I go? Besides, I have many matters in my Heavenly Fox Clan. Once the drama here ends, I will return. Now that the token is refined, the General’s Alliance will reshuffle. I want to watch the show."

"Aren’t you afraid someone will attack you?" Ouyang Mingyue asked with a smile.

The silver fox waved her hand. "Last time, I held back to protect this little one. Now that she is safe, I have no worries. The Priest is no match for me. Even with evil aura on her, she cannot defeat me. her skills are insufficient."

As the silver fox spoke, in the distance, above the General’s Alliance, a token appeared in the sky. A coiled dragon supported the character 'Ling' (Token), hovering as if overlooking the living beings below.

"The General’s Token. It has truly recognized its master," an old man in a house to the east said, seeing the sign. He was excited. "Good. The General’s Alliance finally has a chance of survival."

While the old man felt this way, another person saw the phenomenon. His expression was poor.

"Priest, the General’s Token has truly recognized its master. From now on, the descendants of the卧龙 (Crouching Dragon) cannot be found," a bodyguard-like man said to an old man.

The old man sighed. "It seems Heaven wants to fight me. If so, let us fight. I want to see who can stand in that position. Activate Plan One. Welcome the Medicine God back."

"Yes."

By the time Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan returned, the war in the Xinyu Dynasty had erupted.

Human war was a test of blood and fire. Zhu Yanyi and her companions did not fight, but they participated in healing.

As healers, their role on the battlefield was crucial.

Zhu Yanyi healed the wounded herself.

No one knew Zhu Yanyi’s identity. However, her miraculous medical skills shocked many people.

Zhu Yanyi ignored the people around her, focusing entirely on her work.

The human war lasted thirty-seven days. Finally, Xinyu demonstrated its strength.

After thirty-seven days, border guards remained to clean up. Yuhua had to return to the capital. Representatives from the Sage Academy to accept the附属 (subordinate) status of the Dayu Plane had arrived.

The representatives were Mu Rongyin and Ouyang Tianyun.

Zhu Yanyi saw them arrive. She said, "Elder Mu, I must return first. I leave everything here to you temporarily."

"Something happened?" Mu Rongyin saw Zhu Yanyi’s expression and knew she had urgent matters.

"Yes. News from the mortal realm. My master, who taught me medicine, was assassinated. She is now critically ill. I will notify someone to bring Senior Brother Qingyun. We will meet at the plane boundary and return together to see her one last time." Zhu Yanyi’s face was clearly pale. She could not believe things had developed in the direction she dreaded.

"Go ahead." Mu Rongyin understood. Such emotional trials were inevitable for cultivators.

Zhu Yanyi did not say much more to Mu Rongyin. She left with Yan Aohan. Yu Qingyun was brought by Gu Jun. They met at the plane boundary, then hurriedly crossed planes, returning to Huaxia.

Zhu Yanyi and her group were taken directly to Kyoto by an airplane Yan Aohan had arranged to wait in Kunlun.
