Chapter 73: Scolded (1/2)

'Upcoming Sect tournament?' Yang Wei asked inwardly as he remained dazed.

Meanwhile, Lian Xinyue was dumbfounded that Elder Jing would suggest Yang Wei partner up with her.

”Elder Jing, don't you think it's too quick to decide?” Lian Xinyue asked.

Elder Jing shrugged her shoulders, ”I merely said you two seem to make a good partner. Never did I say that I was going to make you two partners up for the tournament.”

Lian Xinyue was rendered speechless by Elder Jing's quick response and now she made it seem like it was her that wanted to partner up with Yang Wei.

Turning her head around, Lian Xinyue sneaked a glance to see Yang Wei's reaction but to her disbelief, he had no change in his emotion.

'Hmph, am I that unpopular?' Lian Xinyue cursed inwardly.

However, what she doesn't know is that Yang Wei didn't even know about the sect tournament so he was confused about this whole ordeal, to begin with.

It would be shocking if Yang Wei became happy about this news and thanked Elder Jing.

”Phew, seems like time has passed by so quickly.” Elder Jing suddenly said and continued.

”It's time to bring the other disciples inside to take a rest for tomorrow.”

Afterward, Elder Jing started walking toward the entrance to call for Elder Pao Huang and the rest.

Yang Wei didn't say anything further and followed Elder Jing behind. Lian Xinyue took a few moments before tidying up her clothes first and followed shortly after.

While walking, Yang Wei asked, ”What do you mean by tomorrow, Elder Jing?”

”Tomorrow is most likely the date of the appearance of the Pagoda and the reason why everyone is really risking their lives to enter the mysterious realm.”

Yang Wei became dumbfounded to know there's more reason for the people to enter this mysterious realm.

'It wasn't just for spiritual treasure or herbs but the Pagoda. Then why did that mysterious shadow keep informing me about the pagoda if it weren't a secret at all.' Yang Wei pondered inwardly as he couldn't understand the reason behind it.

”What are you thinking about?”

While Yang Wei was busy trying to come up with a reason, Lian Xinyue suddenly asked him.

Yang Wei glanced at Lian Xinyue and shook his head slightly. ”Nothing, I was just thinking what would happen when the Pagoda finally appears.”

There was no point telling her the truth since she probably has no idea either.

Lian Xinyue nodded her head in understanding before increasing her speed to catch up to Elder Jing.

”Elder Jing, what are we going to do once we invite them inside. After all, we had a feast while making them wait outside.” Lian Xinyue asked softly.
