Somewhere with a quiet and serene atmosphere, a young man with a folding fan in hand was facing the night sky. A bright blue light appeared to descend and stop right in front of him.
After a while the light faded and a blue gemstone floated in the air. Without hesitation the man took it and grasped tightly. He closed his eyes profitably sifting through what information was within the stone.
After a while, his eyes opened again. A trace of uneasiness appeared on his gentle face.
"After years of knowing it still does not produce any changes. Are those people so powerful as to be unrivalled?" muttered.
Suddenly he heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind. He immediately hid the stone behind his sleeve before returning to acting as he could.
"Wuqing, it's late why are you still outside?" asked an old man with a long white beard.
"Teacher," Xie Wuqing greeted politely.
Liang Hua approached the newly appointed disciple a few months ago. Actually he did not know why, every time he saw Xie Wuqing, he felt that there was something that made the young man always worried.
In addition, the child was also always closed to him. Even so his talent was indeed not to be underestimated. Even in this great school there might rarely be someone with such a level of genius.
"You look uncomfortable" said Liang Hua.
Xie Wuqing smiled. "This disciple is fine."
Liang Hua sighed. As long as his disciple was unwilling to say things to him, he would only hold back his curiosity.
"The Heavenly Sword Academy can't hold you anymore, are you going to the Central Plains?" ask Liang Hua.
"Maybe in a few days this disciple will have to leave. I've been waiting for someone for a while, but it looks like he's still not at this place yet" Xie Wuqing replied with a lookalike eye.
His memory was fixed on the barbarian girl. Now how is Qing Yue'er? It's been a long time since they split up. Given his outstanding talent, surely his strength had already advanced so much.
"Who are you waiting for? Is that someone who makes you feel uneasy?"
"That might be the truth." Xie Wuqing chuckled without elaborating.
***
Very early in the morning Qing Yue'er heard someone calling her name. As the door opened, he looked at Jing Ling who was already standing with a wide smile. His hand held the food straight at him.
"Xinyu, I brought you some food. Are you happy?"
Jing Ling was enthusiastic. Qing Yue'er greeted him with open arms. Who is not happy when given free food?
After that he finished his morning with Jing Ling's chatter. That girl really talks too much. Even he did not care even though it was only replied with a short 'hmm' by Qing Yue'er.
"I've been looking for Mei Yiran's hideout before, but I didn't find her" Qing Yue'er said, stopping Jing Ling's chatter.
"What are you gonna do? Did we just eliminate him?" Jing Ling asked for an interduction.
Qing Yue'er had already thought about it. He couldn't waste any longer. It was better that he quickly obliterate the zither before the woman took more and more casualties.
Finally Qing Yue'er decided to go straight towards Mei Yiran. She followed Jing Ling until she ended up in the same amusement house as the last time Qing Yue'er stopped by.
They saw the person being sought was having a discussion with someone else. There was Zhao Zirui as well as two others. Those people had quite an important influence in Nan Zheng city.
"What are they talking about?" whispered Jing Ling.
Currently they were at the end of the corridor while trying to eavesdrop on the direction of the group of people. While being focused, Qing Yue'er dragged Jing Ling away from there. His actions were immediately protested by Jing Ling.
"What are you doing? It's a good opportunity to dig up information" Jing Ling said.
Qing Yue'er lamented Jing Ling's brain delay. He breathed helplessly. "Where is Mei Yiran's residence? I'll go get the zither. You stay here watching their movements."
"That's a great idea!" Jing Ling agreed, then she showed me where Mei Yiran's residence was.
"Before I return, don't let Mei Yiran come." Qing Yue'er told Jing Ling. After that he immediately slid to the intended place.
It turned out that the residence of Mei Yiran was located separately from the entertainment house. It was right behind him and was only separated by a small medicine garden. It was only fitting that last night Qing Yue'er searched the entertainment house and never found it.
Qing Yue'er passed through the medicine garden and found some herbs that were quite rare. His heart was a little interested, it was a pity that he did not have the time to pay any further attention.
With quick steps, he moved towards the residence of Mei Yiran. It looks lonely there, but he should not be careless. Must have had a complicated guard.
After observing for a while, Qing Yue'er discovered that it was completely deserted there without anyone in sight. Instead of being happy, Qing Yue'er instead felt that everything was not right.
Even so he felt it would be a pity if he did not seize this opportunity. Finally, with a careful step, he went to sneak into the house.
Meanwhile inside the amusement house, Mei Yiran looked at the people before her with narrowed eyes. "So what do you want?"
Zhao Zirui was silent yet to make his voice. She still remembered the rejection that Mei Yiran had made of her. His heart felt displeased because his pride was like being stepped on by a woman alone.
"Miss, I think you should have told us how this happened. Don't think we're stupid just because we didn't do anything" said the strong man by the name of Su Hen.
Then another slightly thinner man chimed in. "Not no, not exactly."
The mood became quiet. Mei Yiran looked snorted. "Do you think I'm scared?" his lips.
"It's not like that. I think it would be nice if we worked together and made a deal."
"Cooperate?" ask Mei Yiran.
"Yes. Don't you want to obtain abundant soul power? Even though I don't know what your goal is, as long as you make a profit then we can ease the way" Su Hen said.
Before she could reply, Mei Yiran felt a certain tremor warning her vigilance. His eyes instantly flashed with cruelty.
"Finally come too" he murmured.
