"We haven't found him yet."

"No, brother...we have to keep searching. Can we get more people? Please? I'm begging you! Yu just fell into the river. He can swim. He won't die. Also, isn't he a skillful martial artist? He must still be alive!" Le Yao Yao desperately pleaded. Her voice was so loud that it almost sounded like she was trying to convince herself.

"Yao Yao, even if we can bring Yu back, we won't be able to save him." Dongfang Bai softly replied.

"What do you mean? Why not?" Le Yao Yao paused for a moment. Then, she tightly clutched Dongfang Bai's hand.

"Bro, have you already seen Yu? There must be something you're not telling me. How else would you have found me?"

Dongfang Bai knew there was no way he could hide it from Le Yao Yao. So, he heavily sighed and sat Le Yao Yao down before he continued.

"Yao Yao, please calm down first. Yes, I have seen Yu already. It was the night you left the number one manor house. He came to find me."

"What? The night I left?"

If she stayed that night, perhaps they would've already reunited...

Dongfang Bai probably read Le Yao Yao's mind. "Yao Yao, even if you didn't leave that night, Yu wouldn't have gone to see you."

"Why!?"

It turned out that five years ago, Leng Jun Yu had a fierce battle with the remaining members of the evil cult. He accidentally fell off the cliff due to his inattentiveness. Fortunately, his strong martial arts abilities saved him from death. However, he was severely injured from the harsh fall.

Furthermore, he was starving. At the end, Leng Jun Yu had no choice but to eat the fruits from under the cliff in order to fight the poisonous snakes and beasts.

But, it was like he fell into a maze. It took him five years before he managed to find a way out.

Initially, the first thing he wanted to do was to find Yao Yao. But at that time, he realized something was wrong with his body.

The blood that came out was purplish red. It was a sign that he was poisoned.

So, he went to see many physicians in hopes to cure his health. But every single one told him that they had no cure for his condition. That was when Leng Jun Yu went to find Dongfang Bai. He thought the number one miracle doctor would definitely have a way to save him.

But who would've thought that...

"Brother! What poison does Yu have? Even you can't save him?" Le Yao Yao burst into tears. Thinking back, she recalled seeing his scars and injuries while they were fishing. None of his past injuries had healed...

What has he gone through these past five years?

"I have never came across anything like Yu's poison. But I know he only has a few days left."

"So he doesn't want to reunite with me? Because he's afraid I'll be sad?"

"Yes. Yu said you already went through Hell once. It's enough. He didn't want you to watch him die. He just wants you to live well..."

"Haha!!?!!! He wants me to live well? How could I live well if he's dead?" Le Yao Yao laughed like a person with no soul. Her eyes looked dead. Seeing this, Dongfang Bai began to panic.

"Yao Yao! Please don't be like this. Seeing you like this breaks my heart. Even if Yu is gone, he won't be able to rest peacefully."

Suddenly, Le Yao Yao's eyes lit up. She gritted her teeth and stated with determination. "No! I must find Yu! If he's alive, I will find him! If he's dead, I need to see the corpse!"
