Back at Xian Tiandi's camp, chaos had erupted.
Zhou Kang was the first to notice Xian Tiandi returning. He'd been standing guard at the camp's perimeter when he saw his companion carrying an unconscious woman toward them.
"Xian Tiandi!" Zhou Kang called out, immediately alerting the others.
Xian Long came running out of his tent. Ying Yue emerged as well, with Xiao Ming peeking out from behind her.
Elder Feng and Elder Qiu materialized from their hidden positions, their expressions sharp with concern.
Everyone stared at the unconscious woman in Xian Tiandi's arms. Even in her injured state, her beauty was obvious. Her features were delicate and refined, marking her as nobility. Her torn robes bore royal colors.
"Young Master, who is that?" Ying Yue asked. Her voice sounded strange, though she tried to keep it neutral.
"I found her unconscious in the forest," Xian Tiandi replied calmly. "She was injured. I'm bringing her back for treatment."
