"Hello, can I get your nas?" A clerk working behind the desk asked ixiu when she approached him with Yuan.
"ixiu and Yu Tian," she said.
"Okay, give a minute to create your identifications."
The clerk then looked up their information before creating an identification card with it.
"I just need a picture of your face now." The clerk then said.
ixiu went first, taking a headshot by standing in front of the cara on the desk.
Yuan went next.
Once they both took a picture, the clerk printed it on their identification card before handing it to them.
"Here you go. You’re done."
"Thank you."
ixiu accepted the cards and left the building shortly after.
"That was easier than I’d expected," Yuan said afterward.
"Yes. Besides that little recruitnt, it went much smoother than I’d expected."
ixiu then said, "Let’s go ho now that we no longer have to worry about it."
"Alright."
After returning to the apartnt, ixiu helped Yuan take a quick shower before changing his clothes.
"We’re going to play Cultivation Online again starting tomorrow, right? Let’s call Yu Rou and see if she wants to play with us." Yuan said.
"Okay, let try to call her now."
ixiu retrieved her phone and called Yu Rou.
However, Yu Rou didn’t answer the phone in ti, and it went to her voicemail.
"She’s probably busy. I will try again later—"
ixiu stopped talking when her phone began ringing.
"Oh? It’s Yu Rou."
ixiu quickly answered the phone.
"Sorry, I was just finishing up my registration at the Cultivators’ Association." Yu Rou said.
"You also went to register at the association today? We just ca back from that place."
"What? Really? What a pity that we didn’t et." Yu Rou sighed out loud.
"Anyways, do you need sothing?"
"Yes, we plan on playing Cultivation Online again starting tomorrow. Yuan asked if you want to play together."
"Of course!" Yu Rou quickly said.
"Where are you located? We’ll co to you."
Yu Rou then gave ixiu her location.
"Okay, we will see you there tomorrow," ixiu said afterward.
"Yup!"
After hanging up, ixiu said, "Yu Rou said she’ll play with us. She’s also at a place called Seashell City."
"Great."
anwhile, at the Yu Family’s main house, Yu Yong and Tang Lee sat before an old man.
"How can we help you, Chairman Zhao?" Yu Yong asked him.
"Thank you for seeing on such short notice, Yu Family." Chairman Zhao said, and then he placed a small box on the table.
"Accept this compensation from ."
Yu Yong accepted the box without even opening it.
"Thank you."
Chairman Zhao took a deep breath before speaking, "Anyways, I have co here today regarding soone from your family."
Yu Yong frowned slightly upon hearing this, wondering if soone from his family had offended the Chairman of the Cultivators’ Association.
"She’s a servant from your family, and I believe her na is ixiu." Chairman Zhao then revealed ixiu’s na.
"What? ixiu?" Yu Yong’s eyes widened.
"Did she do sothing?" he then asked.
"Haha... No, she didn’t. She was at the Cultivators’ Association today to register as a cultivator, and I was impressed by her cultivation talents. I wanted her to join my Cultivators’ Association, but she refused, so I was hoping you could do sothing about it."
"The Chairman is impressed by ixiu’s talents? Really?" Yu Yong was in disbelief after hearing this.
"Yes. In terms of talents, she’s definitely one of the best I have personally seen. Furthermore, she even claid to be a Ninth Level Spirit Apprentice."
"Ninth level?! That’s impossible!" Tang Lee exclaid. She has only reached the sixth level even with her Heaven-grade cultivation technique. How could a servant who ran away from ho reach the ninth level? With what cultivation technique?
"I know it’s hard to believe, but if you saw her cultivation speed..." Chairman Zhao said.
"I am willing to negotiate— No, I will buy ixiu from the Yu Family. How much do you want?" Chairman Zhao then asked.
"Ehh..."
Yu Yong exchanged surprised looks with Tang Lee.
After a mont of silence, he said, "I’m sorry, Chairman Zhao, but I’m afraid that’s not possible right now."
"What do you an by that?" Chairman Zhao frowned.
"ixiu... She’s actually no longer part of the Yu Family, as she decided to leave the family a few months ago." Yu Yong said.
"What?" Chairman Zhao sat there with a baffled look on his face.
"Then do you know where she is currently?"
Yu Yong shook his head.
"Unfortunately, we don’t. Maybe her mother or my daughter knows sothing. I can ask them right now."
"Please do." Chairman Zhao nodded.
"Alright. Give a few minutes."
Yu Yong proceeded to take out his cellphone to call ifeng.
"ifeng, do you know where your daughter, ixiu, is currently staying?" Yu Yong asked her after she answered the phone.
After a mont of silence, ifeng responded, "I’m sorry, but she didn’t tell anything. I have tried calling her before, but she didn’t pick up."
"Then do you have any idea where she might have gone?"
"I do not."
"I see... Thank you."
"Umm... If you don’t mind asking, why are you looking for ixiu?" ifeng suddenly asked.
"Chairman Zhao from the Cultivators’ Association would like to speak with her, so if you see her or hear anything, let know."
"I understand. I will let the Masters know if I hear from her." ifeng said.
Yu Yong hung up shortly after and proceeded to call Yu Rou.
"Huh? Do I know where ixiu went? No, I don’t. Why do you ask?" Yu Rou responded in a casual voice after hearing her father’s question.
"Are you sure you don’t know?" Yu Yong asked again. "Don’t you have her contact information? You an to tell that you haven’t spoken to her since she left? I don’t believe it."
"I don’t know what to tell you, father. I really don’t know anything, but I can try calling her later."
"Okay. Let know if you learn anything." Yu Yong said before hanging up.
He then returned to Chairman Zhao and said, "I apologize, but it seems like nobody knows her location. However, we’ll try looking for her. If we find anything, we’ll let you know."
Although Chairman Zhao was unhappy about the results, there was nothing he could do about it.
"I understand. Thank you for trying. Here’s my business card. Call if you find her." Chairman Zhao left his business card on the table before leaving the place.
Once Chairman Zhao was gone, Tang Lee said, "Unbelievable... To think ixiu was a cultivation genius that even the Chairman of the Cultivators’ Association would go through such trouble to recruit."
"We need to find her, or we might risk offending the Cultivators’ Association," she added.
Yu Yong nodded, "I agree. I will call so people that specialize in finding people now."
anwhile, after her phone call with Yu Yong ended, ifeng dialed ixiu’s number.
"Mother?" ixiu quickly answered.
"Be careful, ixiu. I don’t know why, but the Chairman of the Cultivators’ Association is looking for you." ifeng wanted her.
"What?" ixiu was surprised to hear this. The Chairman still hasn’t given up on her?
