After leaving Lu You's side.
Chen Duo began roaming the Outsider world.
She first found the remaining traces of the Medicine Immortal Society in the southwestern provinces and cleared them out one by one.
Things that harmed people were better off not existing in any form at all.
Then she went to South China to pay her respects at Liao Zhong's grave. Kneeling before his headstone, she remained silent for a long time and said only, "Uncle Liao, I'm sorry."
She cared deeply about Liao Zhong, yet that had made her suffer even more back then. She and Liao Zhong were a classic case of people following different paths. Uncle Liao was a good man, but he did not understand people's hearts. In a world where she could see no hope, how long could she have held on?
Better to die.
In the end, she had killed him with her own hands. There was nothing to dispute about any of that.
Her own hands were already covered in blood.
Master had said that, right or wrong, one had to face the past. Without seeing the past clearly, there was no future.
Of course, the prerequisite was still having the courage to start over after seeing the past clearly, rather than falling into depravity.
She rose and left without looking back.
Over the following six months, Chen Duo's reputation began spreading through the Outsider world.
As Lu You's personal disciple, she had already become renowned throughout the world from the moment he took her in, her prestige immense.
On this journey, she upheld the fine tradition of Chinese martial arts, making friends in every direction (challenging their schools), studying and exploring opportunities to reach higher levels of Chinese martial arts, and, above all, looking for younger people suited to practicing them.
