895 Meeting (1/2)

”Elder, there is one thing that I want to ask.” The male asked. He had short blue spiky hair and blue eyes. Wearing a red shirt and a long black robe made him look more robust. He appeared to be only seventeen years old.

The elder glanced at him and nodded. ”Ask away. You are the disciple I have chosen, so no need to hesitate.”

The elder was a female. Although he called him elder, she looked like she was only one or two years older than him. She wore a pink dress and tied it with a blue linen shawl around her waist.

”Thank you.” The man clasped his hands respectfully and asked. ”Is there any doctor in the sect?”

”Big brother!” Another female, slightly younger than the man, shouted while clenching her fist. She understood the reason why he asked that was because of her.

The elder glanced at this woman with long purple hair. Her name was Xue Ning. She tagged along because she didn't have any family back home. After all, she was an orphan that her brother, Xue Lang, decided to adopt.

The elder was a bit surprised by the exaggerated reaction from Xue Ning and frowned. ”We have another elder in charge of Pills. He is the most knowledgeable person about medicine. However, I can't really help you to meet him.”

”Is there any way to meet him? I want him to take a look at Xue Ning's condition.”

”Only Inner Disciples are qualified to meet him. Even so, it's hard to meet him even at that. There is only one way if you are in a hurry, become an Inner Disciple and a noticeable one. This way, many elders will see you favorably, and at that time, you might be able to set up a meeting with him.”

Xue Lang gritted his teeth as he certainly couldn't take it.

”Don't worry. I have taken a look at your sister's body. She shouldn't have a mishap anytime soon.” She smiled.

The fourth person finally joined the conversation. However, only the male could see her due to her being only a soul. She had long black hair tied into a ponytail. She wore a kind of white uniform, but it looked easy to move with that clothes.

'Your sister is too strange. There was a rumor that her body is blessed by Heaven, but I can't remember what it was. You might want to keep getting stronger and head to another continent. I am sure the answer lies there.' She sent a thought transmission.

'Is that so?'

'Remember the one visited you a month ago? If I didn't repel her, she might take your sister away. There is also a chance that they know about the origin of your sister, but it's riskier than having her with you because the rumors I heard in the past certainly didn't lean toward good.'

'But you said she might come back?'

'I understand. As soon as I enter the sect, I will do my best to get stronger.'

He then nodded to the elder and sighed. ”I will become an inner disciple as soon as possible.”

”I hope so.” The elder nodded.

”Is this the way?”

”I think so.”

Suddenly, they heard two people's voices as they were flying above them.

They traveled with foot anyway, so they could see the two figures by raising their vision.

The two were Alex and Lin Xingzhi.

Lin Xingzhi suddenly spotted the group of four and immediately tugged his hand, asking him to stop. Alex also found them and nodded.

The group of four panicked when they saw the two descending to the ground and walked toward them.

”Who are you?!” The elder took out her sword and stood in front of Xue Lang and Xue Ning.

Alex raised his eyebrows as he didn't expect to see such a reaction.

'These two guys are bad news. They are stronger than the one coming for your sister a month ago,' The soul warned Xue Lang.

'What? What should I do?' Xue Lang screamed inwardly as he hid his sister behind him. There was only one reason for two people appeared before them at this point. It must be his sister.

But they also encountered a problem. Alex was wearing a white mask this time, only letting them see his golden hair and eyes. Lin Xingzhi was the same. She covered her face with a veil and dyed her hair green. Nonetheless, they looked very suspicious in Xue Lang's eyes.

'This is the guy?' Alex asked Lin Xingzhi.

'Yeah.'

Alex then nodded and waved his hand with a smile. His mask only covered the upper half of his face anyway, so they still could see his smile. ”I want something from you guys. But I am not someone who will steal since I am a man of principle, so I want to trade it.”

”How dare you to treat my sister as an object! I won't let you touch my sister!” Xue Lang gritted his teeth. He couldn't contain his anger anymore because the last one that came also acted as it was something inevitable. He didn't like how they looked at her just because of her talent and made it look like she was just an object or a treasure.

”…” Alex tilted his head in confusion.

”Pfft!” Lin Xingzhi only laughed because she thought something ridiculous. She thought, 'This guy must have met an elder that wanted to take his sister elsewhere.'
