Pretty much everyone in the ancient martial arts world knew about the Baili family’s recent decline. After all, Baili Hanbin was a fairly prominent figure there. He was a prodigy that, like a phoenix, only appeared once every few centuries in the Baili family. However, even he was finished off by his enemy during the ranking competitions. Quite a lot of people were shocked by how the events played out.

Even Rong Seungwon, the most renowned healer in the ancient martial arts world was unable to help with his injuries. And so, the peoples’ hopes had been utterly crushed. The most they could do was sigh and express their condolences.

However, this all was about to change today. Chanyeol uploaded a post onto a group where his friends were gathered. It contained a single photo and a line below.

In the image was a young man leaning against a glass window. The setting sun behind him dyed his clothes a bright fiery red. Under the dying rays of sunlight, his face was unclear. However, they all recognized who the old man standing nearby was—no doubt about it! He’s Baili Sungwoong!

If that’s so, then that man must be none other than Baili Hanbin. Although he wasn’t standing very straight, he was back on his own two feet alright!

Now that even the cripple had gotten up from his wheelchair, who could predict what else was in store for them in the future? It seemed that with Rong Seungwon’s help, Hanbin could finally stand up. If things went on the way it did, perhaps there’s a chance for him to regain his former glory?

This incident spread like wildfire around the ancient martial arts world. This time, it was incredibly obvious how the Baili family was rising back up from the ashes. They were recouping their strength at an alarming rate. Back during the incident at the trial pavilion, Hanbin used his formation to plug up the void. That alone was enough to send shockwaves rippling through their world.

The ripple that was spreading through the ancient martial arts world right now was multitudes greater than that incident. Perhaps it was only a matter of time before his eventual return to his throne?

It’s as if no one could stop the Baili family’s rise from their grave now.

Amidst their shock, a significant portion of them had a question in mind. Didn’t Seungwon himself admit that Hanbin’s condition was beyond the point of saving? It’s been seven years since then and most of the people in the ancient martial arts world had come to accept his statement as the truth. Why on earth then were his legs healed all so suddenly?

Not only that, even Sungwoong’s inexplicable yet chronic illness had been cured! Has Seungwon been experimenting with all sorts of treatment in the past seven years?

A thread had floated up into the front page of The Forum. The post mentioned the Hua family’s arrival at the Imperial Capital. This family was well-known due to their roots in medicine, which was also brought up in the post. The OP even claimed that he or she met the heir of the Hua family in person.

In other words, this person was suggesting that perhaps, Hanbin’s legs were cured by the legendary Hua family?

For a while, these people were getting more and more curious about the Hua family. When the actual family caught wind of this, they swiftly released news of opening a brand-new shop at the Imperial Capital in an effort to cash in on the free publicity. Unsurprisingly, their family business gained quite a lot of attention from netizens of the ancient martial arts world.

“The Hua family?” Jackson was still at Hanbin’s place. He sneered when the thread popped up on his news feed. Then, he sent the thread to one of his group chats.
