When He Yiming returned to the embassy area, everyone, including Shui Xuan Jin, came out to welcome him. At this moment, their attitude towards He Yiming was very different from before.
This difference wasn't just on the surface, but came from their inner attitudes.
He Yiming dealt with them for a long time, then returned to his courtyard with Shui Xuan Jin. After dismissing everyone, Shui Xuan Jin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Brother Brother He, now that you have broken through to One-Line-Sky, are you still willing to join our alliance of small countries?"
He Yiming laughed involuntarily, and said, "Brother Shui, they asked you to come and ask, right?"
Shui Xuan Jin's old face turned red, and said, "Yes, they are a little worried, so they asked this old man to shamelessly come and ask." He pursed his lips, and explained, "But please rest assured, no matter what decision you make, we won't have any complaints."
He wasn't lying, because even if he had complaints in his heart, he wouldn't dare to show it.
He Yiming thought for a moment, and finally slowly said under Shui Xuan Jin's expectant gaze, "Brother Shui, I have already expressed my stance last time. Since the Terra Empire needs it, then as the Terra Empire's Imperial Grandmaster, this little brother will naturally not refuse."
A relieved smile appeared on Shui Xuan Jin's face. He Yiming's biggest concern was finally completely eliminated after advancing to One-Line-Sky.
Shui Xuan Jin took a deep breath, and said, "Brother He, Brother He, we have already made an agreement with Mao Lieguang and Mu Jintian. Seven days later, it will be the time for everyone to trade. Don't forget."
He Yiming was surprised, and asked, "Mu Jintian and the others will still participate?"
Shui Xuan Jin smiled, and said, "Didn't they come all the way here for this matter?"
"But two of them died." He Yiming said in a deep voice.
Shui Xuanjin chuckled and said, "The two of them were courting death. Since they are dead, there is no one who is willing to stand up for them." He looked at He Yiming and suddenly said seriously, "Tufan State will never offend a powerhouse with a promising future for a dead prince and a dead Master of Bai Santian."
He Yiming suddenly came to a realization. Shui XuanJin's words were extremely penetrating. If he did not advance to One-Line-Sky, then what awaited him would be a violent thunderstorm. If things went wrong, even the He Clan Manor would be implicated. But after he advanced to One-Line-Sky, everything changed.
In the end, the root of all this was still strength.
The two of them chatted for a moment before Shui Xuanjin bid his farewells and left. However, before he left, he hesitated for a moment and finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother He, Little Brother Mu Jintian, what do you think of him?"
He Yiming said sincerely, "This person is very strong, especially with his tenacity. He is an excellent opponent."
Shui XuanJin's face changed slightly, and said, "Then do you think he still has a chance to advance to One-Line-Sky after his failure?"
He Yiming was slightly startled. He couldn't figure out why Shui XuanJin would ask him such a brainless question.
After thinking seriously for a moment, He Yiming said, "If an ordinary person encounters a setback at the peak of his career, then the possibility of him rising again is very small. But Mu Jintian is different. I believe he will definitely be able to rise again and finally break through to One-Line-Sky."
Shui XuanJin nodded slightly, and said, "Excellent."
He Yiming became more and more puzzled, and asked, "What's so good about this?"
A proud smile flashed across Shui XuanJin's face, and he said, "This sentence is actually asked by Mao Lieguang. He naturally hopes that Mu Jintian will not be able to rise again. Only then can he be at ease. Hehe, how can I let him do as he wishes? "
He Yiming shook his head slightly. He really didn't have much interest in the intrigue between these countries. After today's battle, his biggest gain was that as long as you have the strength, and it was that kind of overwhelming strength, then you can act unscrupulously.
Even if you killed the Prince of one of the three great countries and a Xiantian powerhouse. The other party could only swallow their teeth and not dare to seek revenge.
As for Mu Jintian being able to advance to One-Line-Sky, he didn't care at all.
By the time he advanced to One-Line-Sky, his own cultivation in the martial way would have long left him far behind.
However, looking at Shui XuanJin who left with a smile of exultation, He Yiming also felt relieved.
This old man had been trapped in the realm of Hundred Scatter Heavens all his life, and now that he didn't have much lifespan left, his thoughts were naturally different from his own.
Shaking his head, He Yiming came to Yuan Lixun's room.
Before he left, he used his wood and water attribute innate qi to let Yuan Lixun sleep peacefully. Now that a few hours had passed, she should have woken up by now.
However, thinking back on what had happened in the past few hours, he really felt like he was in a dream.
Not only did he successfully break through to One-Line-Sky, but he also defeated Zhuo Wanlian in a one-on-one battle. If it was in the past, he wouldn't have dared to imagine all these changes.
He Yiming gently pushed the door open and looked at Yuan Lixun lying on the bed, especially the long whip mark on her face. He Yiming's heart ached.
To be honest, after learning from the Medicine Man for a few months, He Yiming also had a rough understanding of the Way of Medicine. He had absolute confidence that he could completely erase the whip mark. However, it was impossible to say that there wouldn't be any scars left.
After silently calculating in his heart, he finally made up his mind. It was just that it was extremely difficult to achieve that.
He Yiming's ears twitched a little. He laughed heartily and said, "Lixun, since you're already awake, quickly get up."
Yuan Lixun's eyelashes trembled a few times before she slowly opened her eyes. She sat up obediently, but intentionally or unintentionally, she turned the injured side of her face away.
He Yiming sighed in his heart. He knew that she couldn't get over it, but he didn't expose her. He just sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her quietly.
Although she was about the same age as him, she was also seventeen years old. When a girl reached her age, if she had good nutrition and cultivated inner strength, she would not be inferior to a mature woman in terms of development.
At this moment, Yuan Lixun, who was sitting at the head of the bed, was wearing a light yellow undergarment. Although it completely covered her slender figure, her smooth snow-white skin could be seen from her neck.
Yuan Lixun saw his gaze and couldn't help but blush to her ears. Although she wasn't really a rich young lady who didn't know anything, under this kind of naked and fiery gaze, as long as she was a virgin, she would most likely become like this.
He Yiming coughed softly. He withdrew his gaze and said, "Lixun, rest at ease. I've already avenged you."
Yuan Lixun was stunned. Then, she said, "Young Master, just now you went …"
He Yiming nodded slowly and said, "The person who hurt you is Bu Xingcong, the fourth prince of Tufan State. He has already received the retribution he deserves."
Yuan Lixun's eyes turned slightly red. As a citizen of Jilin State, she naturally understood the importance of Tufan State. It was one of the three strongest countries in the northwest. Even Kairong State was only on par with it.
The prince of Tufan State was extremely honorable, but He Yiming sought justice for her while she was asleep. This was indeed quite a huge impact for a woman.
Of course, in Yuan Lixun's opinion, He Yiming would at most give Bu Xingcong a taste of his own medicine. At most, he would only whip Bu Xingcong a few times. If she knew that He Yiming killed Bu Xingcong with one strike because he wanted to establish his power, she would not only be touched, but also shocked.
He Yiming hugged Yuan Lixun and comforted her softly for a while before he said, "Lixun, I've seen the whip marks on your face."
Her delicate body that was nestled in He Yiming's arms suddenly became stiff at this moment. He Yiming's heart ached as he gently patted her back. Slowly, her body softened again.
"Lixun, I've already applied the medicine personally refined by the Medicine Man on your face. In half a month at most, the whip marks will completely disappear, and the scar will gradually shrink."
Yuan Lixun's entire mind was focused on him, so she could naturally tell that he was avoiding the main point. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Young Master, are you saying that this scar will never fade?"
He Yiming pondered for a moment before he said, "Bu Xingcong was very heavy-handed. He used a special technique. If I'm not wrong, he must've used this whip technique often in the past. As long as someone is whipped, no matter what medicine he applies, it'll still be difficult for the wound to heal completely. It'll more or less leave a scar. "
At this point, a wave of anger surged in his heart again. If Bu Xingcong was still alive, he would definitely kill him again without hesitation.
The light in Yuan Lixun's eyes quickly dimmed as she said, "Young Master, I understand."
He Yiming raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Lixun, no one else can remove this whip mark, but that doesn't mean that I can't do anything."
Yuan Lixun was slightly stunned, and a hint of joy immediately appeared in her eyes. She reached out and gently punched He Yiming's shoulder as if to express the great ups and downs in her heart. It was just that the force was too light. If He Yiming wasn't completely focused on her, he probably wouldn't have felt it at all.
"Young Master, what ideas do you have?" Yuan Lixun asked expectantly. Although she was extremely confident in He Yiming, she would not be satisfied if she did not get to the bottom of it.
He Yiming raised two fingers and answered, "There are two ways. One is to cultivate internally, and the other is to apply it externally."
Yuan Lixun's eyes lit up. 'He's worthy of being an Innate Stage powerhouse since he actually has two ways.'
"If you want to heal the wounds caused by this kind of special whip technique, ordinary medicine will be useless. However, if you cultivate from the inside and stimulate your body's potential, then when you reach a certain level of achievement, this kind of small injury will be able to heal by itself."
As expected, an ominous feeling rose in her heart. She asked carefully, "Young Master, are you saying that as long as I cultivate in peace, I'll be able to heal myself without any medicine?"
"Yes." He Yiming nodded and stated solemnly, "As long as one cultivates to a certain level, one will definitely be able to make all the scars on one's body disappear. Just like a newborn baby, white and tender …"
When he said "white and tender", the corner of his eyes subconsciously turned to look at the spring scenery on her chest.
Yuan Lixun's face flushed red. She grumbled in her heart. 'I'm already burning with anxiety, but he still has the mind to think about this … However, if He Yiming really did not have any thoughts about this, I'll feel uneasy instead.'
Even she herself found it inconceivable that she had such contradictory thoughts.
Twisting her body slightly, Yuan Lixun asked softly, "Young Master, what level do I have to reach to be able to do it?"
He Yiming coughed softly and said, "Although it's not easy, it's actually not very difficult."
Yuan Lixun's heart sank. The more He Yiming was unwilling to speak the truth, the heavier her heart felt. If it was any other matter, Yuan Lixun would definitely not get to the bottom of it. However, this was related to her appearance. She really could not bear it and asked, "Young Master, what level is it?"
He Yiming pursed his lips and finally said, "Very simple, about the same as Lu Xinwen."
"Lu … Xinwen!"
Yuan Lixun looked dumbfounded at He Yiming. If she did not admire the person in front of her, she would have covered her face and left without another word.
A moment later, Yuan Lixun said bitterly, "Xiantian level."
"Yes, Xiantian level." He Yiming seemed as if he didn't see the gloominess in her eyes, and said, "Once you reach the Xiantian realm, you will be able to draw the Qi of Heaven and Earth into your body, and all the hidden injuries and scars on your body will completely disappear, just like the rebirth of a phoenix."
Yuan Lixun smiled bitterly again and said, "Young Master, I understand. Then what's the other method?"
"The other method is to find the materials to refine the Face Retaining Pill. If you can successfully refine this heaven-defying pill, then not to mention the small scar on your face, even if your face was cut seventeen or eighteen times, it would still be as good as new."
Yuan Lixun's eyes immediately shone brightly, like two cute little stars.
He Yiming looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said, "But to be honest, with my help, although it will be difficult for you to reach the Xiantian level, there is still some certainty. But if you want to find the materials to refine the Face Retaining Pill and successfully refine it, it will depend on your luck. "
Yuan Lixun was startled. Only now did she understand that the difficulty of refining the Face Retaining Pill was greater than the difficulty of advancing to the Xiantian level.
She shook her head. If He Yiming had not told her frankly, she would not have believed it.
However, after getting He Yiming's guarantee, her heart completely calmed down. Especially when she thought that she also had the opportunity to advance to the Xiantian level, the strange feeling in her heart was really hard to describe.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these seven days, although the entire embassy area seemed to be calm, there were indeed turbulent undercurrents. Countless people were running for their own purposes.
Among them, He Yiming had successfully broken through the Life and Death Line from an ordinary Xiantian expert within two years, and was promoted to a One-Line-Sky expert. This news had already spread to the outside world through all channels, and many people had already heard about it.
And the matter of He Yiming getting angry for a beauty and killing the Fourth Prince of the Tu Fan Country and an Innate Ranker was even more spread like wildfire. There were countless different versions.
After hearing the news, Yuan Zhencheng of the Jinlin Yuan Family discussed with his father Yuan Zeyu behind closed doors for a whole day, and finally announced something that could be said to be sensational in a small circle.
That was, the next head of the Yuan Family in Jinlin was no longer his eldest son, Yuan Liling, but an unknown son, Yuan Lixiang, who was born of a cane.
When the news was announced, several respected elders in the family objected to it. In particular, after witnessing the tragedy of Yuan Zeyu and Yuan Zewei, the two old men, being entangled for the position of the head of the family for decades, the elders were even more against the decision.
Although Yuan Zhencheng had taken over the position of the head of the family, it had only been a short time after all, and he was still afraid of some of the elders in the family.
However, after he just said a few words, the group of old men suddenly kept quiet out of fear, and no one objected anymore.
Not many people in the Yuan Family knew that Yuan Zeyu had sent Yuan Lixun to He Yiming as a concubine. This was because they were initially worried whether Yuan Lixun would be able to gain the favor of He Yiming, and whether she would be able to stay by his side in the end.
If everything went well, it would naturally be a great joy for the Yuan Family. But if she could not gain the favor of He Yiming, then this matter would be treated as if it had never happened.
Nevertheless, regardless of how shrewd Yuan Zeyu and his son were, they did not expect this day to come.
Yuan Lixun's importance in He Yiming's heart had reached such a level, so the two of them finally decided to promote Yuan Lixiang.
From then on, as long as Yuan Lixun was by He Yiming's side, the Yuan Family in Jinlin would be as stable as the He Family in Taicang County.
Needless to say, the Yuan Family in Jinlin was not the only one who was affected after hearing the news.
Within Kairong Country's sphere of influence, almost all of the major forces paid close attention to the news.
The Four Great Clans in Fire Crow Country were even more worried about their gains and losses. They had the same thoughts as Ting Shiguang, and they felt extremely regretful that He Yiming was not able to become the country's protector in the past.
However, the only thing that made the Xie Family happy was the news that they had been dreaming of from Hsieh Ming-chin.
After receiving the news, Hsieh Chih-en immediately rushed to Kairong Country's capital with the other two Stage Ten inner force masters from the Xie Family.
The entire Xie family had placed their greatest hopes on this matter.
This was because the Xie Family had not had another Innate Stage powerhouse for a total of 400 years.
Needless to say, the ones who were affected the most were the He Family Village in Taicang County and the Hengshan branch in the remote mountains.
When He Laibao received the news, he was ecstatic and sent a disciple from Spiritual Medicine Peak back to Hengshan to report the news.
Similarly, the Four Great Elders of Spiritual Medicine Peak and the Supreme Elder, Yu Jinglei, looked at each other after reading the letter. Even though He Laibao had cursed and swore in the letter, they were still skeptical about it.
In the end, Yu Jinglei personally brought Lu Zhengyi down the mountain to the He Family Village.
After all, this matter was too serious. Without seeing He Yiming with their own eyes, no one would believe it.
As for He Yiming, he did not know about the uproar that he had caused. He was just silently accompanying Yuan Lixun in the embassy area until the Master's Fair began in seven days.
