It turns out, they are the protagonists 103 P2
She smiled faintly. “His destiny was… ordinary…”
Yan Ruyu’s lips parted slightly, a smile playing on her lips. “If he has any… hidden talents… I wouldn’t mind taking him as an inner disciple…”
Lan Mulian looked at her, surprised.
The nine peaks could only choose nine inner disciples. Those who entered through connections, like Mu Zhi’an and the Third Prince, they would have to spend years as outer disciples, then compete to become inner disciples.
But the library was different. If Yan Ruyu wanted an inner disciple, she could easily acquire one.
It would be beneficial for him.
But…
She didn’t trust her.
Yan Ruyu had been stuck at the third level of Nascent Soul for years. If she discovered that Mu Zhi’an was a Vessel, she believed in Yan Ruyu’s character, but she wasn’t sure if she could resist the temptation of a breakthrough.
It seems Junior Sister is quite fond of this young cultivator. Yan Ruyu narrowed her eyes, noticing Lan Mulian’s subtle reaction. A proud woman like her wouldn’t be so concerned about an ordinary cultivator. He must be hiding something. She made a mental note of her observation.
She noticed Lan Mulian looking towards a specific area of the peak, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.
“What is it, Junior Sister?” she asked.
“Someone has breached the formations and entered Two Polarities Peak,” Lan Mulian replied.
Yan Ruyu narrowed her eyes, surprised but not alarmed. This was the Two Polarities Sect, and they were on Two Polarities Peak. Even a fool wouldn’t dare to trespass. With the sect master’s power, any intruder would be swiftly dealt with.
“Who is it?” she asked.
“Mu Zhi’an.”
Lan Mulian paused, her lips parting slightly, her eyes cold and distant. “And… Ye Lingxuan…”
“Oh?” Yan Ruyu’s interest piqued.
This is interesting.
Junior Sister’s aura, when she mentioned Mu Zhi’an, even though she was trying to hide it, she was clearly unhappy. It was rare to see her lose her composure.
“Why would they come to Two Polarities Peak?” she murmured, then looked up at Lan Mulian. “Shall we investigate…?”
Lan Mulian hesitated. If she refused, Yan Ruyu would surely go alone, and that was something she didn’t want.
“Alright.”
She nodded.
…
Meanwhile, Ye Lingxuan led Mu Zhi’an into Two Polarities Peak, the formations offering no resistance, as if they were nonexistent.
“How did you do that, Lingxuan? Are you a formation genius…?” he asked, his voice laced with surprise.
“Even a genius couldn’t breach the formations set up by the sect master,” she replied, shaking her head, glancing at her storage ring.
She quickly changed the subject, smiling. “Let’s go to the summit.”
So it was her ring… He noticed her subtle glance, his thoughts racing. She truly is wealthy. Fifth-grade pills, a mysterious ring… The power behind her was formidable. Of course, he didn’t press her for details.
“Aaaa~”
A beautiful, song-like sound echoed through the air, and he looked up towards the summit.
“What is it?” she asked, looking at him, curious.
“I think I heard Ling Long’s song…” he replied.
