"Su Xuan, rest assured," Qi Li said to him softly as he accompanied her back to the sect. "I will make sure you get the 10,000 Moon Profound Stones. They are rightfully yours. When will you go to the Nine Ding Sect to find Xie Cheng?"
She wasn't focused on the Moon Profound Stones. She was focused on when he would be leaving.
"Tomorrow, I suppose." Gazing at the fish-belly white of the eastern dawn, Su Xuan said, "I'll stay at the Floating Cloud Sect for one more day. After all, your father and the others aren't at their peak. If someone comes looking for trouble, I can lend a hand."
"Mm." Qi Li nodded with gratitude.
Having absorbed a great number of strange butterflies in the tomb, Su Xuan's cultivation had already entered the Heaven Severing Realm. His presence guarding the Floating Cloud Sect was incredibly reassuring. She couldn't help but think that many of the Moon Profound Stones had lost their power because they were absorbed by those butterflies.
RUMBLE...
