<h4>Chapter 1869 Detoxifying 3</h4>


    However…


    Huang Fu remained on guard nearby.


    After six hours had passed, he gently carried Gu Chaoyan back to the room, ced her on the bed, and then returned to the space.


    Just as Huang Fu departed, Zhou Huaijin entered the room.


    During these days, she had required extended periods of rest after consuming the medicine.


    He would stay by her side and only leave once she woke up.


    This time was no exception.


    Noticing her awakening, Zhou Huaijin rose from his seat, prepared to depart.


    Gu Chaoyan grasped his clothing and looked at him with wide-opened eyes. "Where are you going?"


    Zhou Huaijin felt both surprised and relieved. "I''m going to get you some tea. Are you thirsty?"


    He had no intention of disclosing his initial n to leave. Even if he had contemted doing so, he wouldn''t reveal it, so as not to ce her in an awkward position.


    Gu Chaoyan smiled and nodded.


    She felt revitalized.


    Havingpleted the detoxification process, she had nothing to worry about.


    In fact, she even sensed a lightness within herself, as if a vast amount of magical power resided within her.


    Gu Chaoyan sipped the tea.


    Speaking to Zhou Huaijin calmly as before, she said, "Now that I''m detoxified, we should depart Snow Territory."


    "…."


    "It''s quite frigid here in Snow Territory, and even within Snow Territory, conditions are more favorable. Those hidden guardsck magical power and are unustomed to this environment. The sooner we return home, the better."


    "…"


    "They''ve put in a lot of effort these past few days."


    Zhou Huaijin was taken aback. He suddenly realized how caring and gentle she always was.


    Despite undergoing intermittent detoxification over the past few days, she was still observant of the hidden guards.


    While the hidden guards struggled with the snow in Snow Territory, it wasn''t excessively difficult. Elder Gao Xiu had made ample preparations, providing them with numerous Dharma artifacts and enchanted armaments.


    However…


    It was time for them to depart.


    The door to the enchanted realm was open, and the outside world was undergoing rapid changes.


    Being in Snow Territory, Zhou Huaijin had limited ess to information. However, Elderly Man Gao Xiu had shared a few things with him in recent days. The schools were currently in turmoil, and without the assistance of the Phoenix Girl, the situation had worsened even further.


    Many witches had already ventured out.


    "We will depart for Snow Territory tomorrow."


    "…"


    "When we leave Snow Territory, instead of returning to the Saint Divine Land, we will head to Haitian."


    "Haitian Market? Zhao Dier mentioned that ce before, saying it''s thergest market for Dharma artifacts, enchanted armaments, and pills. Many valuable items can be found there, surpassing what the proficiency market offers. Do we need to make some transactions there?" Gu Chaoyan asked, feeling perplexed.


    Zhou Huaijin nodded.


    "Elder Gao Xiu mentioned that the situation outside is chaotic. While the schools can protect themselves, the civilians of the Saint Divine Land may face difficulties. We need to take additional measures. I want to see it for myself."


    "What about the court?"


    "Lord Yu is in charge of the court. He is responsible for governing as the king and the monarch. Although he has been absent from the capital in recent years, he is highly skilled. He can handle the court affairspetently."
