"Big Sister Wuya! I've finally made it through the bottleneck that I couldn't break through for a long time!"
A young voice full of joy was heard as a graceful figure approached a group. Oddly enough this group was made up of women, in white and elegant dresses, pure and silky as the snow itself, with each one being as beautiful and delicate as the petals of a heavenly flower. But all their attention was focused on one place.
"Sister Xian'er?"
One of the women startled for a moment before briefly averting her gaze and meeting Hong Xian'er.
"What's going on sister?" Hong Xian'er asked curiously as she noticed the behavior of all the women looking in a certain direction.
There was something going on and she is unaware?
Hong Xian'er's snow-white dress fluttered slightly in the wind, enhancing a rare beauty along with a rejuvenated face as the cells all over her body were rejuvenated as well. Her appearance was almost about 18 years old, in the prime of her youth. But unfortunately there was no man in the place to behold such a beautiful sight.
"I-it's nothing to worry about, sister. It's just that there is an unknown but very handsome guest in this place..." Pang Wuya replied in a low tone of voice as her cheeks flushed and her gaze drifted in a particular direction. Her expression was like that of a maiden in love at first sight.
"Handsome guest?" Hong Xian'er was stunned for a moment before turning her gaze to where Pang Wuya pointed at her.
The next moment, Hong Xian'er's breath froze as her pupils dilated. Her heart pounded fiercely as her cheeks flushed.
A young man in his early twenties in appearance wearing a beautiful white robe with some blue and gold folds entered her vision, his hands gently gathering the earth around a delicate and beautiful flower while maintaining a quiet and calm expression, with a gentle smile as if he enjoyed doing what he was doing. This soft, smiling and calm expression attracted every gaze and heart easily, as if it was a mysterious yet enchantingly captivating magic.
But what puzzled Hong Xian'er was that this young man was ridiculously handsome!
As if he had no parallel in the world!
It was as if he was a legendary Immortal who descended from the heavens!
So handsome and so majestic!
If the young masters of all those important sects in the world were considered handsome, then what words could describe the handsomeness of this man?
This mysterious immortal man is like heaven, while he made all men look like ground and mud! A great and clear difference between heaven and earth!
Hong Xian'er, Pang Wuya and the other women silently watched what this man was doing. Each of them did not dare to breathe heavily, for fear of disturbing him even when they were separated by a great distance.
"W-who is he? And what is he doing here? Doesn't he know that the place where he is is a restricted place?"
After an indefinite time, Hong Xian'er came out of her shock and asked in a low voice as she watched this man continue to cultivate one of the flowers delicately. But her expression paled and she was horrified as she remembered the rules of the place.
The place where he was is a restricted place where no one is currently allowed to enter! It is a place of special formations designed to protect and grow the plants in between!
Every disciple is forbidden to boldly enter that piece of land! Only the current elders and selected people can enter!
And now that the managers had changed, their rules had changed too! So entering these places would be severely punished! He would even be killed on the spot if he was discovered!
"Haven't you seen the object hanging from his waist?" One of the women answered without thinking to Hong Xian'er's question but without removing her gaze from the handsome man who was still cultivating the flower delicately.
"The object at his waist?" Hong Xian'er frowned and quickly focused her gaze on the young man's waist. Instantly her pupils contracted this time and a cold breath invaded her body.
From the waist of the handsome man's robe hung an obsidian talisman with mysterious runes wrapped in a dark blue strip!
"It's Elder Lu's personal talisman!" Hong Xian'er gasped in terror as she realized the object this young man possessed.
That mysterious but characteristic talisman is a personal item of one of the sect's Elders! Elder Lu Wuhu!
Hong Xian'er was dumbfounded, not knowing what to think. How did this young man have Elder Lu's personal talisman with him?
Had something bad happened to Elder Lu?
Hong Xian'er could not help but worry. Although Elder Lu was not her direct Master, he was still one of the Sect Elders, the Grandmaster of Formations!
"How come he has Elder Lu's personal item? Could it be that something bad happened to him?" Hong Xian'er asked hesitantly, not wanting what she thought to be true. This talisman was something Elder Lu Wuhu had created and he always carried it with him on his waist as well, that was why everyone knew about it.
Moreover, Hong Xian'er found the scene strange at this moment. How could someone be quietly laboring and farming the land in this place while having the personal item of one of the elders?
Especially when they haven't heard anything from all their respected Elders!
It's been several months since they disappeared and hadn't returned to the sect after explaining to them that they would probably go somewhere else to look for their mysterious and rumored Master!
"We thought so too, but if something bad had happened we would have heard about it. Remember that the bad news is the news you know first. And since no news has come, then it means all is well. He is most likely related in some way to Elder Lu and, if he is related, we can most likely see the Elders and Masters again! He might even be a new disciple of the Sect! "
As if they had come to the same conclusion as Hong Xian'er, Pang Wuya quickly answered their question but with a cheerful tinge.
None of the women present were fools; each and every one of them were puzzled and confused as to why there was a young man farming the lands in the restricted areas, even going so far as to dimly think that something bad had happened to Elder Lu Wuhu when they realized that he had a personal item of his.
But since bad news is the first to come, they assumed that nothing bad had happened and on the contrary, they felt excited that the true Elders could return to the Sect. Therefore, they simply continued to watch silently and expectantly as this extremely handsome man took care of every single spiritual flower in the place, becoming a spectacle and delight for the eyes. Moreover, none of them felt discomfort or a bad feeling at the sight of him; it is as if this man blended in with nature itself and was an attractive sight for the eyes of these women.
After a few seconds, the handsome man looked towards the place where all the women were standing and smiled slightly before withdrawing his gaze and moving from the place a few meters, focusing on another plant nearby.
"Ay~! He looked this way!"
"He looked towards me!"
"Of course not! He looked at me, he even smiled at me!"
"You're crazy! Clearly his smile was for me!"
The women began to whisper with blushes and glee, arguing among themselves as to whom this unknown man had smiled at.
Hong Xian'er was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say or think regarding Elder Lu Wuhu's talisman. She had a feeling that it was not at all simple what was going on. How could a stranger carry Elder Lu Wuhu's talisman so easily? Even the two personal disciples did not have such a privilege as it were!
"We have to warn him that he has to get out of there before someone knows!"
"Tsk! Why are you all gathered here? Shouldn't you all be cultivating so you won't get kicked out? Haha!"
However, when Hong Xian'er wanted to warn the unexpected visitor of the punishment, a voice full of mockery and disdain was heard interrupting her words, attracting the attention of Hong Xian'er, Pang Wuya and the other women.
A young man in his mid-thirties accompanied by other men of different ages appeared with a superior bearing, an evidently arrogant smile graced his handsome face while long hair swayed to the dance of the wind, highlighting his magnificence.
