In the blink of an eye, a day had passed. During this day, besides operating his Qi, Xiao Ziyan was also operating her Qi, and sometimes she was so tired that her eyes were blurry and sweaty, but she still didn't feel the slightest bit of true qi. On the second night, Xiao Ziyan was still trying hard, but she saw a bandit walk in, and when the bandit saw that Xiao Ziyan was sitting there, he couldn't help feeling curious.

"Why hasn't the aphrodisiac taken effect yet? "No, I saw him eat the steamed bun with my own eyes." Actually, it was reasonable to say that the aphrodisiac in Xiao Ziyan's body was about to explode, but for the past two days, Xiao Ziyan had been using the method of circulating her zhenqi to guide her Qi. Although her zhenqi did not appear, it coincidentally managed to draw out the aphrodisiac's potency, so even now, it could not be seen how it would react.

He wanted to get out of the forest as soon as possible. In the dead of night, Xiao Ziyan was tired of walking, so he simply laid down on the ground, and the fragrance of the grass and mud entered his nose. Xiao Ziyan inhaled deeply, and let out a long breath, as if she was exhaling all the worry out of her heart. "Don't be discouraged, I must have some other way to practice martial arts. I have yet to avenge my sister, so how can I give up like this, and be strong?"

The night was really dark. The stars that filled the sky and the full moon hung in the middle of the stars, proudly displaying their radiance. Perhaps only in this wilderness would one be able to see such a beautiful night.

He remembered that Sima Xiao Yue had given him a pearl necklace. Xiao Zi Yan touched his neck, and sure enough, the necklace was still on him, so he took it off and observed it under the moonlight. The pearl on the necklace was very big, its radius was around three centimeters, and Xiao Zi Yan had never seen a pearl as big as this one, he didn't know what material was made of, and the pearl had the words "Yue Ma Si Xiao" written on it. And this pearl was given to him by Sima Xiao Yue, was there something wrong with it?

Xiao Zi Yan suppressed her excitement and arranged the four words on the pearl in order of "Sima Xiao Yue". She then saw the pearl split into four pieces with a 'pa' sound, and there was a slip of paper hidden within the four pieces. The slip of paper slowly fell to the ground and lay quietly under the moonlight.
