"Xuan Ji, you better not disappoint me during the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array."
This was the sentence Yan Yin said to Ming Shu.
He didn't ask about the location of the blue-sea stone and didn't say any other useless things.
He just threw this sentence at her and disappeared from the room.
Ming Shu held the kitchen knife. She didn't know if he was really angry or if he was not angry at all. She couldn't tell from his tone...
She just wanted to quietly gain some Hatred Points. Why was it so difficult!
...
It was getting closer and closer to the day of the activation of the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array.
All the outer sect disciples started to cultivate more intensely.
Lin Jin and his sidekicks continued to cultivate immortality together.
Most of the time, Ming Shu would stay with them and occasionally go back to her room to sleep.
"Xuan Ji, where are you going? That area belongs to the Seven Peaks...!" Lin Jin shouted at Ming Shu.
"Go back to your cultivation." Ming Shu waved her hand.
Lin Jin watched as Ming Shu walked into the haze. The sky started to darken.
He was not very worried. She would always walk around the area to look for food and he would follow her sometimes too.
Lin Jin went back and continued his cultivation with his sidekicks. However, the next day, he realized that Ming Shu had not returned.
The last few times she left, she would always appear the next morning and wait for him to feed her.
But she didn't come back today...
Lin Jin waited on the mountain for a while. Ming Shu still did not appear by the afternoon.
Lin Jin started to worry. He traced his footsteps from yesterday night and reached the border of the Seven Peaks. He couldn't move forward anymore.
Lin Jin didn't know if Ming Shu went in or if she walked around them. He ordered the rest of the people to split up and find her.
"No one."
"I didn't see anyone."
"I couldn't find her."
They searched all the places that Ming Shu usually went to but still couldn't find her.
"What are you all looking for?"
A blue shadow stepped out of the forest. His posture was casual and had a hint of laziness to it as if he was taking a stroll here.
The silver mask on his face was shining really brightly as though there were diamonds mosaiced on it.
The light reflected in his eyes like stars.
"Master..." Lin Jin's heart skipped a bit and he instinctively lowered his head.
They had met once and he heard from someone that this was Master Yan Yin from the Lihun Peak.
Yan Yin asked then again nicely, "What are you all looking for?"
Lin Jin didn't dare to raise his head, but he could feel the cold glare that the person opposite was giving him. He was too scared to lie to him.
Lin Jin swallowed worriedly. "Xuan Ji... Xuan Ji disappeared. We are looking for her."
He didn't provoke this master before, right?
