After a few hours, they arrived at the General's residence.

The whole of their journey back to the residence, the maid didn't stop crying while embracing Xue Li. Ever since she started serving Xue Li, she was treated by her as a sister. Most of the time, whatever Xue Li gets, she made sure to give her some too. She even made sure to prepare her dowry the moment she will get married. The childhood maid of Sheri knows all of this. This is how generous Xue Li was towards her.

Long Wei got down from the horse and slowly carried Xue Li on his arms. Since young, he saw how she grew up. For him, she's like a sister to him. He trained her on how to use a sword and became her own personal guard. He blamed himself for not being on time to protect and preventing her from losing her life. Lying on his arms, she looks like she's sleeping peacefully but it was from the truth. He wanted to shout and cry and in spite of his injury, he didn't care. He holds Xue Li firmly.

The maid knocked heavily on the gate and the gateman was out for a bitter surprise.

Long Wei slowly strode towards the pavilion where the family usually use for a tea room. During those hours, the Furen and the wife of their sons were having tea.

The Furen spotted a distance and noticed an injured Long Wei carrying Xue Li with blood all over them. She can't help but tremble dropping her cup and froze. The General heard of what happened and rushed toward the pavilion where he saw Xue Li carried by her guard. All eyes were on the two but no one took a move.

They woke up from their shocked stupor when Long Wei groans and dropped on his knee but still firmly holding Xue Li. The General ran and immediately took Xue Li on his embrace. Like a mad man he wailed. While his wife can't stop trembling in disbelief of how her daughter looks like. She couldn't believe that her daughter was gone. She was now lying still without breath. She was so sure that she just talked with her yesterday.

"Xue Li, It can't be!" The wife of Xue Li's brother came forward and cried.

The General's household cried and mourned that day. Even the weather sympathized with them as heavy rain suddenly poured out.
