Xianye nodded and bowed for his departure.

"Prince lee,Please take care of him" Yuli said.

"Yes,Your majesty" Sanwol said and bowed fomally.

And the 2 left the palace and rode onto their horses.

"so,Where do we go 1st?" Sanwol asked.

Xianye took out the map and showed their 1st destination.

"its just a few kilometers ahead" Xianye said and Winks.

sanwol takes a closer look at the map and points out his finger and trails their path onto the destination.

"Wu sect?" Sanwol said with a questioning face.

xianye hummed and Nodded.

Sanwol gave out a dissapointed sigh and just continued on with the trail.

"Oh,we went here to Get some further information about the recent attack" He said.

And in by that,Liu jin directed the two further into the Wu palace and offered them a seat in the tea table balcony near the river.

He served them tea and Discussed the info that Liujin and his clan gathered.

He also asked if they could join in with their journey in finding the culprit.

The two thought about it seriously, and thought about the badside if Wu liujin joined.

The whole wu clan might lose another clan leader if he dies, its a very risky mission.

"Jin-Gē,Its a risky task,And you have be here in your clan to protect them if anything happens" Xianye said and Drank a sip of their fine tea.

"*Sigh*,Fine,But in that case,I will just send out my Younger brother,He may help you in locating Different realms" He said.

a boy so young and Intelligent entered the conversation and dam prepared.

And as the meeting with the new Wu clan leader has concluded.

Xianye,Sanwol and Liu jin's Brother Wu Tian Cai.

"Ah-Cai,Do you the accurate Directions towards this place?" Xianye asked as he pointed at the blurry part of the Marked area in the map.

Tian cai looked over to the map and Nodded.

He led the way and activated his spiritual role.

A compass.

Hours passed by and they are nearly approaching their destination.

A calm and refreshing river streams upon as they arrive.

"Lantern Town is just ahead,But they warned us about naughty Disciples pulling pranks on bypassers and visitors" Wu Tian Cai Said as he looked behind at them and showed his glowing compass which heads up to the northern pole.

They continued on their journey until Xianye's ear rung.

"In the earth crust is that sound?" Xianye said and winced.

sanwol and Tian Cai turned to him in worry.

"Whats wrong?" Sanwol asked but in a flick of his Speedy reflexes.

He spots an incoming spinning fan.

He throws his sword towards the fan and it sliced it in half and returned right into sanwol's arms.

"A fan?" He asked and Got off his horse to pick up the 2 pieces of a fan on the ground.

"must be one of the Disciples,We are totally near" Wu Tian Cai said and reassured Xianye behind them.

Once everything was settled,They pushed off further into their direction like nothing suspicious happened.

Not until they heard voices.

They halted and drew their swords.

then another object came flying towards xianye and in which he managed to flip off his horse and dodged the flying object and landed safely on his feet.

"ok you Lanter town pranksters,Come out wherever you are!" Xianye said with an intimidating glow.

" Yu-Qi,I told you to leave them alone!" a girl's voice Echoed through the Bamboos.

"yuqi?,Who is yuqi?" Xianye asked as he mounted on his horse again.

"Never heard of that name before" Wu Tian Cai said and shrugged his Shoulders.

Then appeared a boy running towards them and also followed by a girl looking similar to the boy who looks like is running away from the identical lady.

"Yu-Qi!" The lady yelled and the boy stopped on his tracks when a sword appeared infront of his very eyes.

"whoa whoa whoa, Drop your sword Friend,Im not dangerous" The boy said and used his finger to push down the sword but The voice wasnt having it.

"learn your manners young man,Do not touch the sword of a Wu clan descendant" Wu Tian Cai spoke and still directed his sword towards the shook guy.

"Oh in the name of wuxia and xianxia,Please excuse my twin brother,he was just pranking around and didnt knew you were a Noble disciple" The girl who looked very identical to the Boy spoke and bowed her head.

Xianye furrowed his brows in curiosity.

"Have i met these two?,They look familiar" He spoke to his breath.

He mounted off his horse and Told Tian Cai to retract his weapon.

"Sorry to bother you two,But we are here to see the Town of lanterns" Xianye said Politely and with Authority.

The 2 strangers looked at each other and said.

"Both of us are from the Lantern town,I am Yu Yiqi, and This is my twin brother,Yu Yongyuan" The girl Named Yu Yiqi introduced themselves.

Xianye tilted his head as the curiosity kicks in harder.

"Your surnames Are Yu?" He asked.

The Yu twins Nodded and looked at each other with Questioning faces.

"That surname sounds extremely familiar to me" He said and looked closely at the twins.

"Is there anything wrong?" Yu Yongyuan Asked.

Xianye looked at the twins from head to toe and noticed the pendants on their waists.

"Um,Xianye, Why dont we talk to them in Lantern town?,Its kinda getting dark now" Sanwol said.

Xianye looked behind him and Nodded.

"Yes,Please lead us to lantern town" Xianye said and The twins nodded as he mounts back on his horse.

the Twins jumped high and t posed as they jump on something in the air and flew higher.

"woah" Sanwol and xianye both said as the horses follow their tracks.

"They are Wuxia Cultivators,We have entered their Wuxia realm" Wu Tian Cai said as they quickly follow behind the Two.

Xianye nodded as he learned something new.

They soon arrived at the Extravagantly decorated entrance of the Town of lanterns.

Busy paths and Beautiful Architecture.

People gathered around while there are people performing things like martial arts and Tricks.

"So all you do here is martial arts?" Xianye asked.

"Yes sir,All of us here practiced Wuxia which is different from your Xianxia cultivation" Yu Yiqi said as they lead them to a river.

"Why are here again Ah-Cai?" Xianye asked.

wu tian cai shook his head to be awaken from his trance.

"oh Sorry ,ahem, we are here to meet the Mayor or clan leader of your town" Wu Tian Cai said with little akwardness.

The Yu twins nodded and Directed them to a boat.

The 3 Nobles gave them a Questioning look.

"You need to get to a boat to reach the Clan master of the North lake clan,They are the surpreme Clan of this town" Yu Yongyuan said.

"What about our horses?" Sanwol asked as they all mounted off the Tall animals.

"We leave them here and lets go" Xianye said and Snapped his fingers.

In a matter of minutes,The 3 horse's Eyes glowed white and stood in command.

"Stay" Xianye said and the horses Huffed and neighed.

The Yu twins looked at him in shock.

"Is that Wicked tricks?!" One of the by passers said and the crown around them stared at Xianye in a strange gaze.

"Whats wrong with my Spiritual powers? Im a master" He said and showed everybody his Amulet.

Yu yongyuan approached him and softly whispered.

"Um, sir,People in Lantern town dont see amulets nor gems as sacred heavenly spiritual tools,They see it as a threat" He explained.

Xianye gasped and hid back his Amulet then a sword appeared just below his neck.

"Hand over the Evil amulet" A guy wearing a Fabulous Attire spoke and glared at xianye.

Xianye glared back.

"Who commanded you to point your sword at the Prince of the kingdom of Fengjin who is also its ruling clan's General?" Xianye spoke with more dominance asserted.

He showed his attire that symbolizes the Clan.

The guy looked at him.

"Put down your sword" Yu Yiqin said to the Guy.

The guy retracted his sword and left.

"He is not a threat everyone" he shouted and scooched the curious crowd.

"Shall we head off then?" Yu Yiqin said, and the 3 men nodded and got on the boat.

[North lake Manor]

The 3 entered the Pier along with the twins.

They went inside the Open gate and was greated by a tall man dressed in a pink colored robe and matching pink and white colored pin on his top knot.

In his hand lies a green case for a dagger.

Xianye looked at the man's weapon cautiously and steps forward.

The man looked at with with mystery laying beneath his gaze.

"Looks like we have an unexpected visitor?" The man spoke in a stoic but intimidating tone and raised his brow.

To xianye and the 2 other males behind him,The guy is a lunatic.

"We have come here to meet your leader,We are here to know more about the things we had been searching for these past few days" Xianye spoke with formalities and politeness and with his signature smile.

The guy raised a brow at him and simply nodded and walked towards the path.

They walked through a cherry blossom orchard until the pink guy swung his dagger.

Xianye leaned backwards dodging the flying dagger just meters away from his face.

The others dodged it aswell.

And it returned to its owner like a boomerang.

Xianye took out his Flute and within his touch,It glowed its signature colors.

The guy looked at Xianye's spiritual tool and nodded with a facial expression that says "oh".

"Xianxia?" The guy said.

xianye nodded and said "Yes,We are Xianxia cultivators" He replied.

The man in pink tossed around his dagger in one hand.

"So you dotn practice Martial arts?" He asked.

"We do,But we mostly focus on our Spiritual strength and abilites" Xianye said.

The man nodded and continued to walk.

Xianye signalled Sanwol to withdraq his sword away.

They soon reached a manor,And inside it were men training.

Xianye examines their skills as they pass by.

"They are brilliant martial artists,Their footworks and body dynamics are great" He mentally said to himself and gave the trainees a mental applause.

The guy led them into a place inside the manor where the atmosphere is mostly intimidating.

And when they entered a hall,There were alot of furnitures,And stuff.

and in the middle,Was a man roaming infront of his throne like chair.

" Father,We have unexpected visitors who had brought their existence here to Meet you" The guy in pink said and gave xianye a smirk before stepping aside.
