Nie Mingjue refrained from the embrace and told:

"Okay, no more lingering around, let's get the disciples here first."

Jiang Cheng, Xiao Xingchen and Song Zichen nodded in agreement. The leaders went back to their sects to gather the disciples.

Wen Qing was treating the patients, most of them were healed, Jin Ling spoke:

"Aunt, thank you."

Wen Qing:

"For what?"

Jin Ling:

"For teaching me medicine. I examined A-Yuan thanks to you."

Wen Qing smiled:

"You did well."

Jin Ling was holding Lan Sizhui's hand. Lan Sizhui opened his eyes and said:

"Where am I? Jin Ling? Lady Wen?"

Jin Ling:

"A-Yuan, don't worry we are back at Gusu."

Lan Sizhui rubbed his head and looked at Jin Ling who just called him A-Yuan and he remembered the underground, he smiled, this time Lan Sizhui remembered his loved one, he looked at him and then squeezed the hand that was holding his:

"A-Rulan, I can suffer through anything but I can't stand seeing you in pain!"

Lan Sizhui started crying, Jin Ling pulled him and put him on his chest:

"Shhh, A-Yuan, it is fine, we are together."

Wen Qing smiled and left them be.

Ouyang Zizhen and Lan Jingyi were also exchanging words:

"Zizhen, I can't believe you did such a thing."

Ouyang Zizhen:

"How could I leave you behind? I can't believe there are such cruel people!"

Lan Jingyi:

"There are nice people too. Mommy never muted me. She used to make me talk to my butterfly toy. I... I played with Sizhui as a kid but Sizhui got sick and forgot. It hurt a lot, seeing a different person instead of my friend who was full of life."

Ouyang Zizhen was now gently caressing Lan Jingyi's forehead, already touching his forehead ribbon.

Lan Zhuqing was bickering with Jiang Song:

"Do you know who carried you from that graveyard? I did! I carried a man!"

Jiang Song smiled:

"A-Zhu, you are a strong girl."

Lan Zhuqing:

"Yes, it is the Lan arm strength. Anyway, A-Song, now what?"

Jiang Song held her hand and said:

"Well, we will stay together."

Lan Zhuqing smiled as she let Jiang Song put his head on her shoulder.

Lan Yuchen was talking with Jiang Ziyi and he said:

"Why did you take the poison? It was aiming at me!"

Jiang Ziyi:

"A-Yu that's why I took it. I wanted you to be safe."

Lan Yuchen:

"You scared me."

Jiang Ziyi:

"So, our boy with excellent footwork got scared? Well, A-Yu, you were capable of getting us out of there with your footwork."
