10 Beauty Waiting by the Door (1/2)
Elder Lan banged on the doors to Su Yang's living quarters, but the person who came out to greet them a moment later was Tang Hu, Su Yang's roommate.
”Elder Lan!?” He looked more terrified than surprised to see a sect elder banging at his door. Did he do something that had managed to offend this elder?
”T-This disciple greets—”
”Bring Disciple Su Yang out here.” Elder Lan interrupted.
”Eh? Su Yang? Umm… He left some time ago…”
”What? Where did he go?” Elder Lan frowned. ”Don't tell me he went to the training ground while I went to get Qi Yue...” she thought.
”He didn't tell me where he'd go…”
”Sis— Elder Lan, perhaps senior apprentice-brother Su went to the training ground like usual.”
”You — tell Su Yang, when he comes back, that I am looking for him with urgent matters that cannot be delayed!” Elder Lan then stormed off to the training grounds again, leaving Tang Hu dumbfounded and wondering what on earth Su Yang did to offend a respected sect elder such as Elder Lan.
Elder Lan and Qi Yue went straight to the training grounds in hopes to see a handsome young man standing beside his poor-looking sign, but alas, he was nowhere to be seen.
”This disciple greets Elder Lan–”
”Have any of you seen a disciple named Su Yang? The one who usually stands there like an idiot?” Elder Lan asked the disciples training there, but all of them shook their heads.
”Where is that kid? Qi Yue, go ask around and see if anyone has seen Su Yang. If you cannot find him within the hour, come back here and meet with me. If you find him, then bring him here. If I do not come back after an hour, then I should have already found him.”
”Okay.”
Elder Lan then looked at the disciples there and said: ”If any of you see disciple Su Yang, tell him that Elder Lan is looking for him! If you can find him for me, then I will award you with 100 Premium Points!”
”One hundred Premium Points?! That's as much as a high-risk mission would award!”
The disciples there became excited from the mission given to them by Elder Lan. Someone as handsome as Su Yang must be an easy sighting, right? And the fact that almost all Outer Court disciple knows his face only makes this mission easier.
The disciples scrambled out of the training grounds as though there was an ongoing fire. And for the first time since the sect's opening, the training ground looked deserted.
