The Centre of the Pure Heart Lake

"Wha-" 

Whoosh!

Before Huang Yongyu could even manage to react to what was happening, he suddenly found himself being dragged into the air before finding himself face to face with the two disciples from the Flying Sword Sect that he had just parted ways with a short time ago.

"Are you okay?"

"Looks like you got beaten up quite badly…"

Happily waving at their friend from the River Sect before discovering the different wounds that had appeared after his fight with the disciples from the Ghost Howl Sect, Chu Yang and Qing Yi both asked out of concern.

"I-I'm fine, but-"

How had he ended up floating mid-air with Chu Yang and Qing Yi all of a sudden?

Just as Huang Yongyu was about to ask this, he noticed Xuan Hao standing a short distance away from him with his hands behind his back and a serene look on his face.

"You are Huang Yongyu?"

"Y-yes!"
