You Su felt uneasy and continued:
"Senior sister, I’m not angry with you; don’t bla yourself. From now on, unless a mistake is made, you should not act like this again."
Unexpectedly, Fairy Wangshu suddenly lifted her head. This senior sister, who had always been compliant to You Su, actually refuted:
"But isn’t your leaving Lotus Peak a mistake?"
Stunned for a mont by her words, You Su laughed:
"I’m not leaving forever; it’s only a brief departure for a few days, not a mistake but a significant matter."
"This can only count as a minor mistake; how can it be a significant matter?"
"Does senior sister not know that disciples must contribute to Profound Sky Sect through tasks to stay?"
Fairy Wangshu shook her head.
You Su remained silent; it seed his senior sister was indeed that special existence in Profound Sky Sect.
"Without contributions, even True Disciples can be expelled from the sect. So, I’ve taken on a task, which requires leaving the sect for a few days to complete. Once I return, I won’t have to worry about it for a long ti."
"Then..." Fairy Wangshu began to speak, her blue eyes frosted, but did not finish.
"Then what?"
"Then how long will you be gone, junior brother?"
You Su found it curious; he thought his senior sister would say as before, ’Then I will go with you,’ for which he had prepared excuses to decline. However, she just inquired about the ti he’d spend, a deviation from her usual behavior.
"It won’t take long. Senior sister, don’t worry, it’s only a simple task. When I return, I’ll bring you a gift."
"Alright... I’ll wait for you to return," Fairy Wangshu lowered her head, "Hurry, junior brother, I don’t want to be alone here any longer."
Emotion stirred within You Su, dispelling the little fear he felt towards his senior sister.
He had intruded into this reclusive fairy’s life, how could he bla her for trying to hold him back?
"I will, senior sister. I’ll leave now and strive to return quickly."
Fairy Wangshu responded softly and helped You Su pack his belongings.
To disguise the presence of a storage Magical Treasure, You Su deliberately carried a bulging bag. He took one last look at his senior sister and his master behind the immortal forest, waved his hand, and resolutely walked down the mountain path.
You Su opted not to say another farewell to his master, unwilling to disturb her retreat, feeling unworthy after receiving her grace repeatedly.
Fairy Wangshu watched as You Su’s figure gradually disappeared, murmuring:
"First Elder, why am I the only one who can’t leave the sect?"
Standing beside her, the First Elder did not reveal any aura throughout, only gently glanced at her without addressing her query:
"Don’t worry, your junior brother will return safely."
...
The azure boat surged with the wind, flying into the sea of clouds.
Upon penetrating the thick fog like a barrier entering the mountain, You Su’s eyes were filled with darkness.
Looking down, the small yet grand Henggao City appeared even more splendid under the golden light.
Turning back toward Henggao Divine Mountain, though not the first ti seeing it, he couldn’t help but be awed by its presence.
If Henggao City was a miracle created by the Human Race on this land, then Henggao Divine Mountain was the remnant of creation left by divine beings.
You Su stared at this world intently, greedily morizing its vibrant appearance.
Unable to repel the wind with Profound Qi, he inevitably adjusted his wildly flapping robe and wind-stirred hair. All he could do was wrap himself in several pieces of clothing, leaving only his pitch-black eyes to examine both heaven and earth.
Previously, he was always carried by his senior sister while flying, this being his first ti flying independently.
Thankfully, despite the overly freewheeling wind, the overall experience was delightful, largely due to the light yet resilient flying leaf beneath him.
You Su cherished the touch of the leaf’s surface, suddenly recalling that the Third Elder used to sit on this leaf all year round, he hurriedly withdrew his hand as if struck by lightning.
Atening higher in the sky, a graceful, voluptuous woman in a gorgeous cyan dress glanced at the youth’s gesture with displeasure.
The Third Elder, intending to bid goodbye to You Su, watched his departure, muttering angrily:
"So shaless!"
