2018 I Trust You’ve Been Well 1 (1/2)

”This bunch of bastards move rather quickly don't they?” Qiao Chu whispered as he crouched like a cat behind the bushes to look at the human spirits pacing back and forth around Nalan Shan's house.

”They have their hearts set on capturing Brownie. Little Xie, can you guess why they are so determined to catch Brownie?” Similarly a fluffy ”furnatic”, Fan Zhuo stared at the human spirits through narrowed eyes. As his own Ring Spirit was a Weapons Spirit, and just when the furry Brownie allowed him to stroke it as much as Fan Zhuo liked, just seeing these human spirits who were seeking to harm Brownie made Fan Zhuo highly displeased.

Jun Wu Xie shook her head. She had thought it through the entire night, but still could not fathom the reason behind it. Nalan Shan had mentioned before that Wu Jiu did not go to the Serene Spirit Tower to cultivate himself and the highly robust power of the spirit in the Serene Spirit Tower with the constantly growing Spirit Fire did not seem to be an existence that could bring power to human spirits no matter how she looked at it.

Wu Jiu's powers had not grown by leaps and bounds in recent years and it did not look like he was using the powers of others to turn it into power that increased his might.

Then why did Wu Jiu want to build the Serene Spirit Towers? Why was he still choosing to do that even when he had to sacrifice his own disciples?

”I had not thought that even the Spirit World would also be so turbulent.” Rong Ruo said with a heavy sigh.

The companions observed for a little while more, before the went into the forest to rest.

At that same moment, a shadowy figure silently passed fleetingly through the Spirit World's sky. Under that dim sky, no one saw a single trace of the shadow's passing.

Within a little house within a forest, the Spirit Master was kneeling inside the house. Upon the low table before him, was place a wooden box. In that box, it contained some broken crystal shards, and the SPirit Master stared at the crystal shards for a rather long time.

”Grandmaster, hasn't the Spirit Lord agreed to see you?” A little disciple at the side could not help but feel worried when he saw the Spirit Master looking so dejected.

The Spirit Master lifted his head and looked at the scenery outside the window, his eyes filled with worry as he shook his head.

”The Spirit Lord is still not willing to see me.”
