However, Du Lingfei had a slight limp, and in the depths of her eyes, the emotions hidden there had beco sweeter than before.
The Law Hall led by Ouyang Jie was also there. When he saw Yan Xiaobao, he watched for a mont in shock, but then felt great joy. When he saw Yan Xiaobao's tattered state and heard what he had just said to Li Qinghou, he nodded in approval.
"Yan Xiaobao, I am Ouyang Jie from the Judicial Hall."
When Yan Xiaobao heard the words "Hall of Justice," his heart pounded, but then he recalled the incredible service he had rendered. His chest swelled as before, and he respectfully shook hands with Ouyang Jie.
Ouyang Jie rarely smiled, but he did now, saying, "Why don't you co with to see the Sect Leader and talk about what happened with the Luochen Family?"
With a wave of his finger under Yan Xiaobao's command, a mist of spiritual energy appeared underfoot, lifting him towards Ouyang Jie.
Li Qinghou looked very pleased, as he transford into a streak of light and followed.
The other disciples watched Yan Xiaobao leave, most of them gasping in amazent and beginning to discuss the matter as they dispersed. Of course, news of Yan Xiaobao being alive spread quickly.
Eventually, everyone in the Spirit Stream Sect knew about it. Most were very happy, but back in his Immortal Cave, Qian Dajin was trembling, a hint of horror visible on his face.
"Damn, I can't believe he's not dead! How could he escape such a deadly pursuit!?"
"He probably has no idea I'm the one who arranged for him to continue the mission... does he? He can't possibly know..." Various expressions flashed across Qian Dajin's face. Finally, he sighed, pondering all the potentially bad things that could happen.

Spirit Stream Sect has eight peaks. Four are on the North Shore, three on the South Shore, and one in the middle... that is Daoseed Mountain, the public seat of power for the sect. Usually, Sect Leader Zheng Yuandong manages sect affairs from that place.
Currently, with the lords of the peaks from both the North Shore and South Shore sitting up straight in the main hall, the bell rang. The Sect Leader was also there, seated in the center position.
Soon, Li Qinghou and Ouyang Jie arrived with Bai Xiaochun. They took Yan Xiaobao from outside the temple hall, telling him to wait there as they went inside.
Outside the temple, four disciples served as guards, glancing curiously at Yan Xiaobao's appearance.
Yan Xiaobao smiled at them. This was his first ti visiting this place; spiritual energy was abundant, and the fragrance of plants and flowers filled the air. There were no irrelevant sounds; everything was calm and quiet, unlike on Xiangyun Peak.
This was a very important place in the sect, and usually, any disciple coming here would act very cautiously. However, Yan Xiaobao seed completely at ease, standing there looking very relaxed.
The four disciples couldn't help but marvel at this, thinking that Yan Xiaobao really should be considered a big figure in the sect, soone who had rendered incredible service. After all, ordinary people would never act so casually in such a place.
The fact is, although Yan Xiaobao feared death, given the accomplishnts he had shown, he knew he wouldn't die here. So, it was natural for him to feel unafraid. He puffed out his chest, his heart filled with anticipation for his rewards.
"Considering the level of service I've provided to the sect, they'll have to give a pill to extend my life by a hundred years. They're most likely going to give 1,000,000 rits, maybe an incredible Immortal Cave too. I'm sure I'll also be promoted to the Inner Sect. Hahaha." The more he thought about it, the more excited he beca. However, after a long ti, no news ca letting him into the Holy Temple.
Yan Xiaobao was a bit surprised. He kept waiting until he yawned when finally, a voice spoke sowhat sparingly.
"Yan Xiaobao, co in."
His spirits instantly lifted. Taking a deep breath, he tried to look like the picture of a disciple ready to go through Hell or high water for his sect. He entered the main hall, hands clasped, bowing.
"Yan Xiaobao from Xiangyun Peak, at your service. Greetings, Sect Leader. Greetings, other senior mbers of the sect."
After making the formal greetings, Yan Xiaobao lifted his head. He imdiately saw an old man sitting in the middle of the group. He didn't appear angrily threatening, dressed in long white robes. His cultivation base was completely unreadable.
He was surrounded by eight people, a group of six n and two won. Li Qinghou and Ouyang Jie were among them, all seemingly asuring Yan Xiaobao, who had sohow survived and returned.
Their eyes were drawn to his clothes. Given the strength of their vision, they quickly understood that Yan Xiaobao's clothes hadn't been torn intentionally, but that he had truly been through a deadly battle.
They also noticed how pure and fair he looked. He spoke politely, neither arrogant nor humble. Judging by the expression on his face, he seed completely relaxed.
Although none of them showed any reaction to what they saw, inside, their impression of Bai Xiaochun rose further. However, so still had doubts about what exactly had happened.
Li Qinghou looked at Yan Xiaobao and then slowly said, "Yan Xiaobao, please explain everything involving the mission with the Luochen Clan in detail from start to finish."
