"You can go in to visit now." This sentence was probably the best thing Hua Xiangrong had heard these days. With the nurse's words, everyone surged into the emergency room together. Once inside, they finally saw Lin Mu, whom they hadn't seen for a long time. At this moment, Lin Mu was covered with tubes, sleeping deeply on the hospital bed.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone felt a bit heartbroken. The sound of medical equipment made the group feel somewhat oppressed. At this moment, Doctor also came over, instructing on some precautions. Afterwards, everyone asked about Xiao Yifei's condition, only to see the doctor shake his head.

"Whether he can wake up depends on the patient himself." The doctor had his reasons for saying this. Because the meridians around Xiao Yifei's heart were damaged, the flow of blood and Qi was obstructed, which is crucial for a person's recovery. Therefore, the doctor said whether Xiao Yifei could wake up depended entirely on himself, and there was nothing wrong with that.

However, hearing this news, no one could smile. Relying on himself to wake up was almost like declaring a death sentence. For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene turned somber. At this point, Liu Rui hurriedly said, "Everyone, don't be like this. Let's believe in Xiao Yifei. He won't give up that easily."

Hearing Liu Rui's words, everyone nodded. Indeed, what they could do now was wait and believe in Xiao Yifei. As for anything else, they were powerless.

"Xiao Yifei, you must wake up," Hua Xiangrong said softly, looking at Xiao Yifei's sleeping face. The sunlight from outside the window was filled with infinite hope.

During the days of waiting for Xiao Yifei to wake up, the war continued. However, for some reason, Huaxia's stubborn resistance prevented the enemy's forces from advancing further, leading to a stalemate in the current battle situation. Liu Rui also informed Elder Hua of Xiao Yifei's coma.

Sure enough, just as Liu Rui anticipated, upon hearing the news, Elder Hua was so angry that he almost overturned the table in front of him. Thankfully, Liu Rui stopped him. But Elder Hua couldn't contain his anger, immediately ordering an all-out investigation into who was behind the assassination attempt on Xiao Yifei.

Indeed, when it came to dealing with Xiao Yifei's case, Elder Hua was not vague at all. His best directive for handling the matter was: show no mercy.

Days passed by like this. One day, on a distant island, a violent aura erupted, causing the surrounding birds and beasts to flee as if that thing could take their lives immediately. Simultaneously, thick clouds slowly drifted in across the sky.

This phenomenon had no precedent in the past and may have none in the future. It persisted for half a day, until a part of the clouds suddenly split open. On closer inspection, someone had struck it from the ground. Peering through the crack, one could see a woman sitting cross-legged.

The True Qi that pierced through the clouds was emitted from the woman's body. At this moment, the woman suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze so sharp it seemed to make everyone submit. At that instant, everything on the island seemed to freeze, as even the slightest breeze could not be felt.

It is often said that before the storm, there is calm. Now, the situation was like a storm. After a moment of silence, everything on the island began to erupt into chaos. Gale winds roared, birds and beasts wailed, but the most terrifying was the lightning in the sky. The electric storm was alarming to behold.

Yet, the woman who had suddenly opened her eyes remained standing at the center of the island, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. "Bang!" Suddenly, centered around the woman, rings of Qi currents explosively expanded outward.

Everything that came into contact with that Qi current turned to ashes without exception. Instantly, the vibrant island became a desolate place. All the surrounding green trees faded and withered, and at that moment, the woman stood up.

"Finally broke through," the woman muttered, clenching her fist excitedly. Indeed, this woman on the island was Ci Xin, Asanxi's mother and the one who forced Xiao Yifei to administer acupuncture. At this moment, she had broken through the Golden Elixir barrier and reached the next realm.

Ci Xin looked around, frowning slightly, but she was more excited. She hadn't expected that after breaking through the Golden Elixir, the power would be so great. Looking at the wilting trees, Ci Xin couldn't help but want to show off. At this moment, she seemed to feel capable of controlling all things.

Ci Xin raised her head to look at the thick clouds in the sky, her good mood making her not want to see the endless clouds. She casually waved her hand at the sky, and the entire sheet of clouds in that direction split apart with just a wave of her hand.

Suddenly, the sky became half bright and half dark. Seeing her handiwork, Ci Xin laughed. Now that she could change the world, what was there she couldn't do?

With this thought, Ci Xin slowly retracted her hand, then remembered something she longed for, which was another island afar. On that island was the Bronzer Gate Ci Xin yearned for. During these days of closed-door cultivation, Ci Xin never forgot about it.

However, at this moment, Ci Xin suddenly remembered Xiao Yifei, the one who helped her breakthrough. She remembered deceiving him into thinking she wanted to help the country to achieve a breakthrough, and that foolish boy actually believed her. Thinking of this, Ci Xin coldly chuckled.

As long as she could explore the secrets of the Bronze Gate, who would care about much else? With this in mind, Ci Xin threw Xiao Yifei's matter aside. What she wanted to do now was to go to that Bronze Gate quickly, hoping that within it lay something unseen by the world. Upon this thought, Ci Xin exerted force with her foot.

With that force, Ci Xin's entire person soared out. If anyone saw her, they would be too shocked to speak, for Ci Xin was flying in the air without any external aid, and her speed was incredible, like traveling a thousand miles a day.

Her target was the distant island's Bronze Gate. At this moment, Xiao Yifei was unaware that he had initially bet on Ci Xin's words being true. This time it seemed that Xiao Yifei lost the bet. If Xiao Yifei knew the first thing Ci Xin did after breaking through was to seek the Bronze Gate, he would probably be so angry he'd spit blood.

In the pitch-black world, a figure suddenly appeared. It was a long-haired beauty standing quietly, doing who-knows-what. Just then, another figure slowly manifested behind the beauty.

The face was handsome, the appearance sunny. It was Xiao Yifei, always regarded as a handsome man. When Xiao Yifei first saw the beauty ahead, he was greatly surprised. First, he was amazed why this world was completely dark, and second, he wondered why there was a person in such a dark place.

"Miss?" Xiao Yifei slowly approached, wanting to ask for clarity. Gently tapping the beauty's back, he asked softly, "Miss, where is this place?" afraid that the beauty might get a wrong impression of him.
