Peng Ni nodded and said nothing more. He turned and left, his back gradually disappearing into the distance. Li Yuan stood there, watching him leave, with mixed feelings in her heart. She knew that this farewell might be a farewell forever. But she also understood that everyone has their own way to go, and she couldn't stop Peng Ni's steps.

With Peng Niu's departure, Li Yuan's mood became extremely heavy. She returned to the military camp, and Xuan Youyan had been waiting for her there for a long time. Seeing Li Yuan coming back, Xuan Youyan's eyes flashed with concern.

"You're back, did you find him?" Xuan Youlian asked softly.

Li Yuan shook her head and told Xuan Youyan everything that happened on the mountain. Xuan Youyan was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Everyone has their own choices, we can't force them. You did the right thing, at least you tried your best."

Li Yuan looked at Xuan Youyan with gratitude, and a warm current surged in her heart. She knew that in this world full of fighting and conspiracy, it was so rare to have someone who understood and supported her.

In the following days, Li Yuan and Hyun Woo-ryeon handled military affairs together. They planned strategies together, trained soldiers, and prepared for the upcoming war. Although busy, Li Yuan felt fulfilled and satisfied. She knew that she was working hard for her goal.

However, every night when it was quiet, Li Yuan would always think of Peng Niu. She didn't know how he was doing in China, and whether he had found a new life of his own. Sometimes she would regret not keeping him, but more often, she would wish him all the best.

Time flies, and months have passed in the blink of an eye. Li Yuan and Xuan Youyan led the army to repeatedly achieve great feats on the battlefield, and their reputation gradually spread throughout the continent. However, behind this, Li Yuan paid unimaginable hardships and efforts. She often thinks of every little bit with Pengniu, and those beautiful memories seem to have become her motivation to move forward.

Finally one day, the war was over. Lee Won and Hyun Woo-ryeon stood on the city wall and looked out at the land that had been devastated by the war. Now, it had regained its former tranquility and beauty. Lee Won knew that it was all worth it. She had given everything for this land and the people here.

"You did a good job." Hyun Woo-ryeon said softly, his eyes full of appreciation and admiration.

Li Yuan smiled slightly, and a sense of pride surged in her heart. She knew that she had not only won honor and respect for herself, but also proved everything for Peng Niu. She believed that no matter where he was or how he lived, he would be proud of her.

As the sun sets, Li Yuan stands alone on the city wall, looking at the gradually blurring horizon in the distance. Her heart is filled with longing and expectation for the future.

Luoyang City after the war was still prosperous, but a little quieter. Li Yuan, dressed in armor, stepped into Xuan Youyan's mansion with the glory of victory. Xuan Youyan had been waiting for a long time in the mansion. He was dressed in a brocade robe, with a handsome face and a gleam of expectation in his eyes.

"Hyun Woo-ryeon, I'm back." Li Yuan's voice was firm and powerful. She looked directly at Hyun Woo-ryeon, her eyes full of calmness.

Hearing this, Xuan Youyan smiled. He took a few steps forward and held Li Yuan's hand tightly: "It's great that you're back. You have made an indelible contribution to this battle."

Li Yuan smiled slightly and shook her head: "This is all thanks to everyone. I just did my part."

The two smiled at each other, as if all the fatigue and hardship disappeared at this moment. However, just as the atmosphere gradually became relaxed, Hyun Woo-ryeon's face suddenly darkened.

"I heard that you were kidnapped on the battlefield? Who is so bold as to do that?" Xuan Youlian's voice was full of anger and worry.

Li Yuan was stunned. She didn't expect Xuan Youyan to misunderstand this matter. "Actually, it was a misunderstanding. The person who kidnapped me was not an enemy, but..." She hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth, "It was Yang Xiao."

"Yang Xiao?" Xuan Youlian frowned, "Why would he do this? I have already ordered King Jingnan to arrest him."

Li Yuan sighed and explained, "Actually, Yang Xiao didn't mean to hurt me. He just...just wanted to take me away from the battlefield. He didn't want to see me get hurt."

Hearing this, Xuan Youyan's face became even gloomier: "Why does he think he can protect you? Does he know how much trouble his actions will bring you?"

Li Yuan looked at Hyun Woo-ryeon's angry expression, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She knew that Hyun Woo-ryeon was so angry because he cared about her. But she also understood that some things were not so easy to explain.

"Xuan Youlian, listen to me. Yang Xiao is not a bad person, he is just... just a little impulsive. Besides, he has left and will never come back." There was a hint of pleading in Li Yuan's voice.

Xuan Youyan was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath: "Okay, since you have said so, I will believe him this time. However, if there is a next time, I will definitely not let him go."
