Chapter 1078 Xu Xuan
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“Is there something wrong with me accepting more missions? I thought disciples are encouraged to accept as many missions as possible.” Su Yang asked with his head tilted in a puzzled manner.“No… there’s nothing wrong. And you are right. Disciples are encouraged to accept missions since it increases our reputation and karma.” The Sect Elder grabbed the missions and started recording them down in his scroll.
“You will have two months to complete these missions. Here are your necessities.” The Sect Elder handed him a pouch with the usual items inside.
Su Yang left the mission hall and returned to his living quarters to notify Mei Ying and Mei Xing of his departure.
“Stay safe, Manager.” Mei Xing said.
“It’s not like I’m going out to fight spiritual beasts or anything like that.”
Sometime later, Su Yang left the Boundless Yin Yang Sect.
Three days after Su Yang left, a small figure appeared above the Boundless Yin Yang Sect and used spiritual sense to sweep the entire sect.
Using spiritual sense on an entire sect was highly frowned upon, akin to spying, and could be mistaken as a declaration of war. Due to this, it was an unspoken rule in the cultivation world to never use spiritual sense on a wide scale whenever one is near a sect or any place with a large settlement.
However, this small cat-like figure couldn’t care less about such human rules. Moreover, it was confident that nobody would be able to sense its spiritual sense.
‘I don’t sense the Phantom Cat’s presence here… Maybe they haven’t returned to the sect yet?’ Xu Xuan wondered to herself after failing to find Xiao Rong.
However, a certain area within the Boundless Yin Yang Sect immediately piqued her interest when she saw it due to how elaborate it was. That area was the Outcast Peak. More specifically, Su Yang’s living quarters.
Right before Xing Aiying left Su Yang’s side, she’d created several top formations around Su Yang’s living quarters to protect him. As one of the best formation experts in the Divine Heavens, Xing Aiying could make her formations invisible and undetectable by even other top formation experts, so she wasn’t worried about her formations catching any attention.
In fact, even the Heavenly Emperor would not be able to detect her formations if she really wanted to conceal them. However, even Xing Aiying could have never anticipated that a Phantom Cat would appear in the Boundless Yin Yang Sect and sweep the whole place with spiritual sense. A Phantom Cat’s spiritual power is so obscenely powerful that no other existence in the Divine Heavens even comes close to it, much less rival it. Furthermore, paired with their treasure-seeking ability, nearly everything in this world is visible to them if they want to see it.
After discovering Su Yang’s living quarters, Xu Xuan approached it to take a better look at the formations.
Her transparent figure approached the building, her presence nonexistent.
‘Hmm… there are only three formation experts I can think of who could possibly create such a skillful formation, and one of them is from the Su Family…’ Xu Xuan proceeded to spend the next few days studying the formation while she waited for Su Yang’s return.
On the fifth day, she noticed a small human coming out of the house to sweep the front door and the area around the house.
‘She is the definition of out-of-place… Why is a little girl like her in this sort of place? Is that woman inside her guardian? Her cultivation is too weak to be a disciple, so she must be a servant. They were probably brought here by that man with the Phantom Cat, but why?’ Xu Xuan quickly comprehended their situation. A few more days later, Xu Xuan observed a young lady wearing disciple clothes approach the building.
“Good morning, Miss Luo.” Mei Ying greed her.
“Hey, I’m just here for a wellness check. Is everything okay? Did anyone bother you?” Luo Li asked.
“No, it’s been really peaceful here.”
“Disciple Xiao’s really something, though. He’s completed 3 high-priority missions as an Outer Court disciple, and he’s now out to do 2 more. He’s not only talented but hardworking as well.” Luo Li said.
“The manager is definitely a hard worker. I’ve known this since our time in the City of Pleasure.” Mei Ying agreed with a head nod.
‘Disciple Xiao, huh?’ Xu Xuan suddenly had an idea.
She consumed an appearance-altering pill and transformed into a disciple. Then, she left the Outcast Peak and pretended to enter the place for the first time.
“Hello. Is Disciple Xiao here?” Xu Xuan approached Luo Li and asked.
“No, he’s out doing missions.”
“Do you know when he’ll return?”
“He left only a few days ago, but he’ll be back within two months.” Mei Ying said.
Xu Xuan sucked her teeth in an annoyed manner when she realized that she missed him by a few days.
“For what purpose are you looking for Disciple Xiao?” Luo Li asked, her eyes examining Xu Xuan from top to bottom.
“Oh, I’m a friend of his. He visited me first, but I wasn’t available at that time, so I am visiting him now.”
“Disciple Xiao’s friend?” Luo Li raised an eyebrow. “Yup. His friend. By the way, is his cat home?” Xu Xuan suddenly asked.
“Cat? Disciple Xiao has a cat?” Luo Li looked at Mei Ying for answers.
However, Mei Ying shook her head and said, “No, he doesn’t.”
Since Xiao Rong typically spends her time exploring outside, she rarely sees Mei Ying or Mei Xing. Whenever she does show up, she’s always in her human form, so Mei Ying wasn’t aware of her true identity.
“He doesn’t? He told me he had a cat at home. Perhaps I’d misheard…” Xu Xuan said in a puzzled manner. Her acting was so good that neither Luo Li or Mei Ying suspected anything.
“How did you become friends with Disciple Xiao?” Luo Li asked out of curiosity.
“How we met, huh…” Xu Xuan’s expression suddenly became nostalgic as she recalled an old memory of hers.
“He found me when I was on the brink of death and saved my life… That’s how we first met.” Xu Xuan spoke in a gentle voice.
