"Don't say anything about Luo Yian." Qin Zeyu pressed, staring at An Jua sharply.
Zhi Mei was surprised, she had never seen Qin Zeyu look angry like this time. She also realized that she had asked him about Luo Yian.
"Zeyu, don't be so serious. An Jua was just joking." Zhi Mei tried to persuade him.
An Jua was silent, she looked at her grandfather's book and he said Luo Yian was a good place for her. But, she was just confused from the villagers saying Luo Yian was a cruel devil.
"Grandpa said, Luo Yian is not that bad. I just wonder why many people hate him."
"Where did you find this girl?" Qin Zeyu asked Zhi Mei.
"At the foot of Mount Jiuhua."
"The grandfather you mean is Mo Chenghai?" Zeyu asked.
"I think so." An Jua answered.
"Damn." Qin Zeyu cursed
Suddenly Qin Zeyu heard something. He immediately invited An Jua and Zhi Mei to go. They boarded a ship from the harbor.
"What's wrong?" An Jua asked.
"They're here, this place is dangerous."
"What about grandpa?!" An Jua panicked.
"Sorry An, I've ordered my men to meet Mo Chenghai." Zeyu said.
Not long after, a dove came delivering a letter, Zeyu immediately caught it and read the letter.
"Sir, sorry we're late. Mr. Mo Chenghai was already dead when we just arrived. It seems like they've targeted this place. And, we've got the gemstone you asked for."
"Damn, they killed Mo Chenghai." Zeyu said, shocking the two women.
"Impossible, how could that be?!" An Jua was angry.
The three of them were at sea, it took 7 days to reach their destination.
"So this is the reason you told me to go to Mount Jiuhua?" Zhi Mei whispered to Zeyu, making the man nod his head.
"Where are we going now?" Zhi Mei asked.
"The big city of Moyan in the west,"
"The place of the warriors." Zhi Mei squeaked.
Tonight the three of them gathered for dinner. Qin Zeyu took out a map.
"In 7 days we will pass the Baiyin Sea, there we will stop at Fenglin village."
"Fenglin Village, Lingyun sect?" Zhi Mei asked, Qin Zeyu just nodded his head yes.
"There we will meet my messenger and give the green gem to Elder Lu Wuchen."
"After that we will sail on the Yeming sea, it takes about 1 month to reach the big city of Moyan."
"Zeyu, do you want to meet the Lingyun people?" Zhi Mei asked afraid.
"Don't forget, I also come from there. Ever since I was taken to Tianpan City in the south, I have never hidden my origins." she stressed.
"Do you realize, if An Jua is a girl 18 years ago? For the revival of Luo Yian?" whispered Zhi Mei.
"I have to help my friend. Besides, you don't need to be afraid. We won't hurt or kill An Jua."
A few miles from their place..
In Jiuhua village, an attacker killed many of the villagers. They were led by a black-robed warrior with a red sword that balanced the color of the blood of those he had killed.
"Find that girl, and take the jewel from her!" he ordered as he mounted his horse and went searching.
The place was destroyed, nothing remained. After searching for a long time he came back to meet someone.
When he first entered, he received punishment from his master, his body hanging in the air with just one finger. Not long after, his body was crushed until blood stains came out from the corners of his lips.
"Ji Lian, I only told you to catch a girl, but you are so incompetent!"
Ji Lian knelt down quickly. "Master Mo Xian, I was careless and ready for punishment." he said, afraid to lower his head.
"You must be punished! Huo Ran! Whip Ji Lian with 100 lashes!" he ordered firmly.
Some people were indeed eyeing An Jua to get her green gem. But, they were wrong. The gem was taken by Mo Chenghai and was in his hut on Jiuhua Mountain.
In Yusheng Village, Wangyuan was relaxing predicting the destruction he had caused. And, his master's goal of becoming a ruler would happen soon.
"And, Bai Ning's rise will be closer, my wife wait for me." he said softly.
"Teacher." Guoshu called.
"Tell me."
"The girl is heading to Fenglin Village, Together with two people, I don't recognize them"
"How many more days?"
"Maybe it will only take 5 days to get to Fenglin Village."
"That means, they will get closer to Luo Yian?" Wangyuan laughed slyly. This was good news that he would give to his master.
"Wangyuan, what are you talking about?" asked Mr. Fuyi who had just arrived.
"Sect master, there's nothing too important."
Guoshu immediately excused himself to finish his task, leaving Wangyuan with Mr. Fuyi.
"You're hiding something, Wangyuan!" Mr. Fuyi pressed, looking angry.
"No, master. They've already found the girl who's on her way to Fenglin village."
"Then you just keep quiet? She's getting closer to Luo Yian! Send someone to catch the girl
"Hurry up!" Master Fuyi ordered.
Wangyuan immediately moved to order his disciple to catch the girl named An Jua.
In the middle of the Jinghai sea towards Baiyin, they were making plans to meet Master Lu Wuchen as soon as possible, she knew for sure that the criminals were chasing her now.
Zhi Mei looked into the distance using her binoculars, the night at sea and the big waves accompanied them.
"Maybe, we need 5 days to get to Fenglin Village using this ship" said Zhi Mei.
"We have no choice, tomorrow morning we will continue using a small boat, so that we can get there faster." said Qin Zeyu.
"Are you crazy? We are bringing An Jua. There are many pirates in the sea." said Zhi Mei while looking at An Jua who was sleeping.
"We have no other choice Mei!"
"Are you sure?" Zhi Mei looked doubtful
"Tomorrow if there are pirates, I will hold them for you. You have to meet Mr. Lu Wuchen and give him the gem that Yusan will give you later."
"We have to be together." Zhi Mei said.
They went back inside to sleep, the night passed. The morning sun was so hot. A small boat had been prepared by Zeyu.
"Are you ready?" Qin Zeyu asked.
The two girls nodded yes, they got down into the boat and Qin Zeyu started rowing the boat.
Zeyu used his inner strength, to use his teacher's technique. The boat was surrounded by a white circle
"Tianpan city's signature technique, invisible" Zhi Mei said.
"This only lasts, at most 2 days."
