At the Thorny Flower Garden, Aldrian sat inside the pavilion, surrounded by the beautiful scenery of the garden. He was enjoying herbal tea served by Sect Master Baek, who had fully recovered and regained her mature beauty. She had even taken part in the purge operation, showcasing her power as the leader of one of the great sects.
Baek Jimin had followed her mother, both to support her and to gain more experience in battle.
After all the chaos and fighting, they finally had a moment of true peace. There were no traitors left—Kwon Mira, her daughter, and everyone who had worked with the devils had already been executed. Some of the elders who had supported Kwon Mira in taking the sect master's seat, without knowing about the devils, had their cultivation crippled and were banished from the sect as punishment.
