She ran out after her but she couldn't catch up with her and she didn't want to leave Huo Ying all by herself. She just couldn't understand where it all went wrong, she understood that she had spent more time with Huo Ying than she had spent with her sister but what she feels for Huo Ying are duty and friendship and what she feels for her own sister if far more than that but she didn't know how to explain to Huo Lian. She watched her sister's back until she was out of sight in the courtyard then she returned to the room, she pulled a chair close to Huo Ying bedside and watched her, her face that was very white before was now looking better although she had not gone back to her normal self.
If it was normal herbs that she used on Huo Ying, there is no way the herbs would have such quick effects but they were spiritual herbs and they only grow on cultivated land, this is why only the vitality sect would have it even after it has stopped growing for that year.
She just wished that Huo Ying could open her eyes at that very moment so that she could pour out all the frustrations she felt to her, Huo Ying has always been good at listening but not good at talking about her own problems and feelings that is why the only person that can make her pour out her mind is Huo Qiang because she thinks of him as her older brother.
---------------------
It is already late in the night and the three of them are still in the forest, the three of them were heavily injured so they couldn't ride their horses yet and they couldn't risk getting caught, they had no problem with defeating the vitality sect disciples but they didn't want their faces to be recognized, the flame sect is not hypocritical like other sects, they don't care about their reputation, as long as they are not harming anyone, they will do whatever it takes to save their fellow sect members in any situation but if they were caught stealing herbs from the vitality sect, it might affect their second young mistress return and that is the only reason why they have remained silent all these years.
The three of them sat in a lotus position while they meditate, their internal force had become disarrayed due to the injury they sustained from the golden eagle's attack. After increasing their spiritual force, they had managed to calm their internal force, the three of them opened their eyes and stopped meditating.
"We still need to cure our internal injury," Huo Qiang said
"Why don't we receive treatment when we return to the sect, we need to hurry back to the sect, everyone would be trying to find us since they have seen the golden eagle," Huo Li said.
"She is right, they have never seen us so they can't recognise us but we have the symbol of the golden eagle on the back of every inner disciple of the flame sect," Bingchen said, then the three of them stood up.
"They won't ask us to of our cloth just because they want to know who is from the flame sect, as long as we are careful we will be able to return to the sect without being discovered but Huo Ying mustn't know about the golden eagle attacking us and our internal injuries or she would blame herself," Huo Qiang said
"Then let's hurry back to the sect," Huo Li said, then the three of them climbed their horses, as soon as Huo Qiang got on his horse, he felt severe pain in his abdomen, he wanted to ignore it but as soon as he urged his horse to move the pain increased, he screamed in pain when he tried to move again but the pain increased. The both of them immediately turned back to see what was wrong with him, they were shocked when they noticed that the wound on his abdomen which he had forgotten to treat when he treated the wound on his hand had turned to a golden yellow colour, they quickly got off their horse and assisted him to come down from his horse, he screamed in pain as he came down from his horse.
"What is wrong, why has your blood changed to a gold colour?" Huo Li asked as they helped him to the ground.
"I don't know why, the wound on my abdomen was too small that I forgot to treat it when I wrapped my hand that was stabbed by the golden eagle" Huo Qiang replied, Bingchen helped him remove his cloth, the both of them were flabbergasted at the sight of the wound. The wound had a very bright golden colour, and the blood coming out of it was also golden.
"This is not just an ordinary wound, we need to return to the sect as fast as possible, we need to stop the bleeding first, even if the colour of your blood has changed, it is still blood and if you lose too much blood, you might lose your life before we get to the sect," Bingchen said
"I never thought that you cared about me this much, seems like I have to treat you better" Huo Qiang said
"I don't think the pain you are feeling is very severe since you still have a sense of humour" Huo Qiang said
"But your hand was also stabbed by the golden eagle claws, why is the wound still normal?" Huo Li asked
"I don't know why all I know is that the pain is hardly bearable," Huo Qiang said
"We can wait till we return to the sect to find out," Bingchen said, then he stood up and entered deeper into the forest.
"Where are you going?" Huo Li shouted
"I need to get some wild herbs to stop his bleeding" Bingchen shouted back
A few minutes later, he came back with the herbs and a stone, he ground the herbs on a small wood then he applied the herbs on his wounds and tore a small part of his cloth and used it to wrap the wound on his abdomen.
"I am done with wrapping the wound, let's go now, the faster the better," Bingchen said, then they helped him climb his horse while they climbed theirs, then they rode out of the forest.
The next day, the core members of the wind sect gathered in the sect hall, they were already deeply troubled by the appearance of the golden eagle, given the significance of the golden eagle to the flame sect
"I am sure everyone must be aware that the golden eagle appeared yesterday," the sect leader said, then they all nodded their head.
"Sect leader, I think we should undermine the appearance of the golden eagle," the first elder said
"I agree with the sect leader, I heard that even in the battle of ever night, that the flame sect didn't make use of the golden eagle, this means that something more serious than the battle of the ever night must have happened," Lin Bohai said
"Moreover that flame sect witch still hasn't lost her power, we have to find out what it is before they catch us unawares," Meng Hui said, they all began to murmur among themselves and voice their opinions at the same time then they sect leader raised their hand to stop them.
"I understand everyone's concerns, many of us have lost the life's of our loved hands in the hand of the flame sect and we don't want the same thing to happen, the flame sect was a bully in the Jianghu world and this made all the sects join hands to exterminate them but unexpectedly they were more powerful than we thought. They have already grown during this years and we still don't know how strong they are so during this time, we need to prepare ourselves for their return, in some years' time, the Martial Hero competition will begin and they might attend the competition so everyone needs to prepare themselves, do you all understand?" the sect leader said
"Yes, Sect leader" They all chorused.
"Sect leader, what are we going to do with that flame sect witch. Her sudden outburst each time we try to dispel her power has deeply damaged the foundation of the sect" Meng Hui said
"What do you mean?" the sect leader asked
"The last time she had an outburst, I lead some disciples to check the cave but we didn't enter into the cave, we discovered that the cave might not be able to last for one year, her outburst has caused the structure of the cave to be destroyed," Meng Hui said
"How can that be, the underground cave of the flame sect has been there since the sect was founded, even the worst fight between powerful figures could not destroy the cave, how can she do that?" the second elder said
"This means that we have been underestimating her power," the sect leader said
"Father, does this mean that we have to move here and her personal servant from the cave, after all, they are both from the flame sect, if any harm comes to them, we would be blamed," Lin Bohai said.
"I don't agree since we cannot dispel her power and she might be a threat to us in the future, why don't we leave her there, if anything happens to her, we would not be blamed since we didn't do anything to cause her death and her servant from the flame sect will also not be able to testify," Meng Hui said, then the hall became noisy once again, everyone wanted to voice their own opinion but they were all talking at the same time.
"Enough!!" the sect leader shouted then they all stopped talking
"Father, I don't think that idea is good, we can dispel her powers to prevent her from being a threat to us in the future but she hasn't done anything wrong to deserve death," Bohai said, Meng Hui looked at him, she wasn't happy that he was siding with Huo Lan.
They have never met, so why is he defending her…
She thought!
"Young Master, you saying that she hasn't done anything to deserve death is not true when she was still an infant, she has caused us to lose twenty important disciples who were the best we had at that time and they would have become powerful people in the Jianghu world if she hadn't burned them to death, the only one who survived to tell the tale later died when he could no longer endure the pain," the first elder said, Meng Hui smiled, she was happy that her father was backing her up.
"If we leave her be and the flame sect finds out that we tried to dispel her powers, they will definitely not let the matter rest," Meng Hui said.
"I have heard your opinions and I have decided that Huo Lan will be left in the cave, her living or dying depends on her fate," the sect leader said.
"Father…." Bohai tried to protest but he was cut short by his father.
"You softheartedness is your bane, I have told you not to let go of anything or anyone that might be a threat to you in the future," the sect leader said, although he didn't raise his voice, from his tone it was clear that he was angry.
"Then what do we do about the golden eagle appearance?" the second elder asked.
"It is no use sending disciples to find which member of the flame sect has left the mountain because the only way of identifying them is the golden eagle symbol on their back, but any disciple that leaves the sect should pay special attention when they are outside the sect," The sect leader said
"Okay, sect leader" they all chorused
Then the sect leader left the hall following the elders and the other disciples, Lin Bohai gathered some of the advanced disciples that attended the meeting outside the hall.
"You should tell the sect leader's order to the other disciples and tell them to keep their eyes open for a golden eagle symbol" Lin Bohai said to one of the advanced disciples, then they left to carry out his orders. He was also about to leave the front of the sect hall when he felt someone pulling him back, he turned back to see who it was.
"Meng Hui" Bohai said, then he looked at her hand holding his, she saw that he was signalling her to stop holding his hand so she released his hand.
"Why do you seem angry again?" Bohai said
"What do you mean by I am angry again, are you saying that I am always grumpy?" Meng Hui said, this is the part of her that Bohai hates, she always frowns at the slightest thing as though the world revolves around her.
"I don't mean it that way, just tell me what you what to say," Bohai said, he knew what the end result will be if he continues arguing with her and he wasn't in the mood for her tantrums.
"Why are you siding with her?" Meng Hui asked, jealously and anger was written all over her face.
"I am not siding her, I am only saying what is good for the sect," Bohai said.
"But…"
"I have something to attend to, I will see you later," Bohai said, then he just walked away without even waiting for her to reply him.
"You…" she was about to follow him but her father stopped her.
"Father, why are you here?" Meng Hui asked, she thought her father had left earlier.
"I understand his actions but I know your feelings for him, if you want him to love you, you should stop throwing tantrums and try to restrain yourself," her father said then he also walked away without letting her reply. She stumped her foot in anger, she didn't like it when she is being opposed by anyone but her father actually opposed her.

"You softheartedness is your bane, I have told you not to let go of anything or anyone that might be a threat to you in the future," the sect leader said, although he didn't raise his voice, from his tone it was clear that he was angry. "Then what do we do about the golden eagle appearance?" the second elder asked. "It is no use sending disciples to find which member of the flame sect has left the mountain because the only way of identifying them is the golden eagle symbol on their back, but any disciple that leaves the sect should pay special attention when they are outside the sect," The sect leader said "Okay, sect leader" they all chorused Then the sect leader left the hall following the elders and the other disciples, Lin Bohai gathered some of the advanced disciples that attended the meeting outside the hall. "You should tell the sect leader's order to the other disciples and tell them to keep their eyes open for a golden eagle symbol" Lin Bohai said to one of the advanced disciples, then they left to carry out his orders. He was also about to leave the front of the sect hall when he felt someone pulling him back, he turned back to see who it was. "Meng Hui" Bohai said, then he looked at her hand holding his, she saw that he was signalling her to stop holding his hand so she released his hand. "Why do you seem angry again?" Bohai said "What do you mean by I am angry again, are you saying that I am always grumpy?" Meng Hui said, this is the part of her that Bohai hates, she always frowns at the slightest thing as though the world revolves around her. "I don't mean it that way, just tell me what you what to say," Bohai said, he knew what the end result will be if he continues arguing with her and he wasn't in the mood for her tantrums. "Why are you siding with her?" Meng Hui asked, jealously and anger was written all over her face. "I am not siding her, I am only saying what is good for the sect," Bohai said. "But" "I have something to attend to, I will see you later," Bohai said, then he just walked away without even waiting for her to reply him. "You" she was about to follow him but her father stopped her. "Father, why are you here?" Meng Hui asked, she thought her father had left earlier. "I understand his actions but I know your feelings for him, if you want him to love you, you should stop throwing tantrums and try to restrain yourself," her father said then he also walked away without letting her reply. She stumped her foot in anger, she didn't like it when she is being opposed by anyone but her father actually opposed her.
