On the tenth day, the He Family's large cloudship arrived at White Stone Town on schedule.
Before leaving home, Yang Lingshu found Wei Xinqing. He opened his mouth to say something, only for her to raise a finger and press it against his lips.
"I know. I believe you. I'll wait."
At her words, warmth rose in Yang Lingshu's heart. He gently took Wei Xinqing's hand, then drew her into his embrace.
One lowered his head while the other lifted her eyes. As they gazed deeply at each other, they left their marks upon each other's lips.
After bidding Wei Xinqing farewell, Yang Lingshu came down the mountain.
By then, the other six members of the Yang Family had all arrived.
In order of cultivation, they were Yang Lingrui, Xie Chuan, Liang Yi, Zhao Qi, Chu Xuan, and Dai Wei.
Chu Xuan came from the Chu Family of Clear River, which was now a subordinate family of the Yang Family.
After receiving word from the main family, Chu Xuan had volunteered to head to the eastern front.
To give these people a better chance of surviving on the battlefield.
During the year or so since receiving the news, Yang Lingqing had bestowed upon them many pills to improve their cultivation.
Before their departure, she had also prepared ample pills, talismans, and offensive and defensive spirit treasures in their storage pouches.
Combined with the handwritten copies of cultivation insights they had obtained earlier, all of their realms had improved.
Xie Chuan had broken through to the Fifth Level of Qi Gathering.
Liang Yi had reached the peak of the Second Level.
Chu Xuan and Zhao Qi had both broken through to the Second Level of Qi Gathering.
Only Dai Wei remained at the First Level.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting!"
