Chapter 84 Departure
"But at the moment of success, Xingyue City was shrouded in fog, preventing those outside from entering and those inside from leaving."
This situation lasted for two years. The nearest sect branch to Starmoon Capital was a small sect. After trying many things and finding that they really couldn't get in, they contacted our Xuanmiao Sect.
"So that's how it is." Yun Qingyi understood.
"So, Master, they came to us for help because they want us to help them clear the fog?"
"No."
Yun Qingyi: "..."
"The fog suddenly lifted not long ago, otherwise how would that small sect know so much about Xingyue City? What they want to ask for help is the recurring nighttime infant-eating incident."
After the fog dissipated, the small sect, having discovered they could enter Star Moon City, responsibly investigated the local situation. According to the city lord and the citizens, during the time they were shrouded in fog, there had been no more instances of infanticide at night.
However, now that the fog has cleared, this phenomenon has started to occur again, so the small sect compiled various reports and submitted them to us for assistance.
"Oh, oh." Now Yun Qingyi really understood.
"So Master wants me to handle this matter?"
Ci Gui nodded and smiled, "I guessed you would emerge from seclusion in the next few days, so I arranged the participants for this training trip in advance. Besides you, there are a few other people going with you."
"Who are they, Master?" Yun Qingyi asked curiously.
"They're all people you know. You'll find out when we set off tomorrow."
The next day, Yun Qingyi, holding the token given to her by Ci Gui, arrived at the square in front of the Xuanmiao Sect's main gate.
"Sister, over here!" Yun Qingrou had been keeping an eye on the direction of the gate.
Upon seeing Yun Qingyi in a light blue dress, he happily called out towards the gate.
After saying goodbye to Ci Gui yesterday, Yun Qingyi immediately picked up the jade pendant and searched for messages from her contacts everywhere.
Yun Qingrou, Gu Qiqing, and Ruan Qi all answered her questions correctly. Gu Qiqing also told her that Leng Zhan was also a candidate for this training.
Yun Qingyi was stunned when she came to her senses. Good heavens, one after another, they were all familiar faces.
However, no matter how she asked, she couldn't find out who the last person was, which made Yun Qingyi very curious, so she came to the mountain gate early.
I didn't expect them to arrive even earlier than I did.
Looking at the sky where the morning star was still hanging on the horizon, Yun Qingyi's lips twitched involuntarily.
"No, why are you here so early?"
"Hello, Martial Uncle!" Leng Zhan greeted Yun Qingyi with a smile.
"Hello, hello," Yun Qingyi said with a smile.
"It's not that we arrived early." Gu Qiqing scratched his head. "We just waited here as soon as we received the news. Anyway, cultivators don't need to sleep."
Besides, it doesn't matter where we spar, Leng Zhan and I will just wait here for you guys and spar."
"What about Arou?" Yun Qingyi looked at Yun Qingrou beside her and asked curiously.
Wearing a red dress, Yun Qingrou walked happily to Yun Qingyi, her delicate face even more radiant and aloof than before.
She said a little shyly, "It's because I haven't seen my older sister for a long time, so I wanted to see her as soon as possible."
"Sister, I miss you so much."
"I miss Arou too," Yun Qingyi said with a smile, reaching out to pat Yun Qingrou's head.
Uh……
The outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.
She looked somewhat awkwardly at Yun Qingrou, who was about the same height as her.
I was so captivated by Yun Qingrou's face that I completely ignored her height.
Now that Yun Qingrou was standing in front of her, she was shocked to find that the child who used to be half a head shorter than her had now grown to be the same height as her!
And this was after she had grown more than ten centimeters taller.
That's outrageous! What has this kid been eating all these years? How can he grow so fast?
"What is your older sister thinking about?"
Yun Qingrou saw the hand that was suspended in mid-air and smiled slightly.
She lowered her head and placed Yun Qingyi's hand on her head: "If you want to rub it, it's okay."
"My older sister can always treat me like her little sister."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyi was suddenly moved. She gently patted Yun Qingrou's head and then withdrew her hand.
Yes, it feels just as good as before.
Just as I was about to say something, a voice came from afar.
"Greetings, fellow martial uncles!" Ruan Qi approached from a distance, his face showing some surprise.
"I didn't expect my senior uncles to arrive so early."
Then, seeing Leng Zhan next to Gu Qiqing, he was even more surprised: "You guys are all here so early? Did I remember the time wrong? I'm not going to be late, am I?"
As she finished speaking, Ruan Qi blushed, her voice sounding somewhat embarrassed and hurried.
"No, no," Yun Qingyi quickly waved her hand and smiled, "We just arrived earlier."
Hearing Yun Qingyi's words, Ruan Qi smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. She had come early; it would have been too embarrassing to be late.
Yun Qingrou counted the heads and then asked Yun Qingyi, "Sister, is there still one person who hasn't arrived?"
“Yes, that’s right, there’s still one person missing, but I don’t know who she is yet,” Yun Qingyi said.
"There's still a while before the agreed time, so everyone can take a break first."
Hearing Yun Qingyi's words, Gu Qiqing chuckled: "Perfect, Junior Nephew Leng, let's have another good spar."
Upon hearing this, Leng Zhan rolled his eyes at Gu Qiqing but didn't move.
Gu Qiqing was not surprised and directly aimed her sword intent at Leng Zhan.
Leng Zhan said helplessly, "Uncle-Master, it's been five years and you still haven't broken through my defenses. Why don't you just stop?"
"Enough talk, take this!"
Just as the two were locked in a fierce battle, while the other three watched with great interest, a languid and alluring figure slowly approached them.
Are you all heading to the Star Moon Capital?
