After Ning Yishu returned to his broken-down house, he was in a conflicted mood .
When Bai Weiwei woke up, she would probably kill him .
He had to flee right away .
But Grand Heavens Mountain had a large defensive array . If you didn’t have a token to leave, you couldn’t get out at all .
He was beaten and scolded every day in Grand Heavens Mountain . He would never be able to get a token .
Could he only wait to die?
Just now… he shouldn’t have run away . He should have turned his hand and stabbed Bai Weiwei, and let her die .
Ning Yishu was sure he would die soon . After all, he understood Bai Weiwei’s temperament .
He had treated her like that; her skinning him and stripping his tendons would be light punishment .
But after a few days of living in fear, it seemed that Bai Weiwei had forgotten him . She didn’t even ask someone to kill him .
Ning Yishu asked around, only to find out that Scarlet Moon Mountain’s1 hidden realm was about to open .
All the major sects would send numerous people to prepare to enter the hidden realm and seize the immortal treasures .
Bai Weiwei was busy with this and basically had no time to care for him .

Ning Yishu didn’t sigh in relief, because he was clear that the crisis wasn’t really over .
If he was strong enough…
Ning Yishu settled down and drew qi into his body .
But like in the past, his dantian2 was empty, and the spiritual energy in the air couldn’t be accumulated .
Ning Yishu ruthlessly smashed his fist into the ground . A crack in the ground didn’t form, but his hand was numbed by the endless pain .
Repressing his chestful of rage, he walked over to the desk and began to flip through the pages .
This phenomenon had happened before .
A single spiritual root was blocked and couldn’t absorb spiritual power .
There was a kind of rare treasure called a Blessed Flower3 . It grew in the Scarlet Moon Mountain’s hidden realm and had a miraculous effect on blocked spiritual roots .
However, only disciples whose cultivation were above the Foundation Establishment4 stage were qualified to enter .
And he, a first-level Qi Refining stage, was simply not qualified to join .
In the beginning, he’d intended to bribe the leader with the dagger to get a spot .
But now…

“Ning Yishu, shishuzu is calling for you to go to Skyward Palace5 . ”
Suddenly, a disciple at the Foundation Establishment stage kicked open the door and announced .
Ning Yishu bowed his head, hiding the indifference in his eyes . He honestly and obediently said, “I will go right away . ”
What ever would come, will come .
As expected, Bai Weiwei wouldn’t let him go .
He left the wooden house, his steps heavy as he approached Grand Heavens Mountain’s most magnificent audience hall .
He was sure the Bai Weiwei told him to come to Skyward Palace to execute him .
Because this audience hall was where busy disciples gathered .
But when he arrived, he discovered that all the disciples of Grand Heavens Mountain had gathered .
Steams of people pushed and chatted within the grand hall .
“I heard that the hidden realm opened earlier than planned, and shishuzu plans to lead the team in person . She’s setting off for Scarlet Moon Mountains today . ”
“Yeah, ah . I heard this is the last time the hidden realm will be open, so even shizu6 came back . ”
…
Ning Yishu listened to the conversation from the people next to him . He was expressionless, not exposing his disappointment .

Because he knew that this trip to the hidden realm had nothing to do with him .
Suddenly, the gong outside the door was struck once, and its sound echoed throughout the hall .
The main entrance of the grand hall opened .
“Shizu, shishuzu have arrived . ”
Everyone looked toward the main entrance . Suddenly, a faint fragrance pervaded the air .
Ning Yishu smelled the familiar fragrance, and it was as if Bai Weiwei’s beautiful and delicate body flashed before his eyes .
His jaw clenched, and he quickly waved the image away .
Then he secretly glanced up, but froze once again .
The morning light poured in through the door . The woman who stepped into the hall wore an aqua blue wide-sleeved flying celestial skirt7 . Her ink-black hair draped over her shoulders, and her skin was as bright as snow . Her features were so exquisite they bewitched and trapped the soul .
It wasn’t that they didn’t have beautiful disciples all around .
But when she stepped into the grand hall, everyone else looked dim and faint .
As though only she was shining .
[1] 赤阴山: red/crimson + moon + mountain
[2] 丹田: a region of the body that condenses and collects qi . Usually refers to the area below the navel .
[3] 天情花: heaven/day + love/kindness/feeling + flower . I chose “blessing” because I figured a blessing is kind of like receiving love from the heavens/God/etc . , and because of its effect on the spiritual roots . The person being treated would surely think it’s a blessing to be able to cultivate .
[4] 筑基期: the second level of cultivation rank
[5] 天凌宫: sky + approach + palace
[6] 师祖: if there’s a shishuzu, there must be a shizu, right? Bai Weiwei’s senior martial brother and likely the sect leader
[7] 广袖飞仙裙: there was no exact result for wide-sleeved “flying” celestial skirt, but there was a wide-sleeved “flowing” celestial skirt, depicted below:
