"Shanshi."
Outside the cave mansion, a kindly but authoritative female voice resounded.
Chen Sansi, who was about to begin seclusion, collected his thoughts and came to the entrance of the cave mansion, cupping his hands and saying, "I didn't know you were coming, Master, what guidance do you have for me?"
"I just returned from the Demon-slaying Great Wall."
With a hint of apology in her tone, Master Yu Ling said, "The affair with Xi Yue is my responsibility. I almost caused you to lose your life."
"Master, you don't need to blame yourself."
Chen Sansi paused, "But Master should have warned me in advance."
"I had my reasons."
Master Yu Ling admitted, "Your senior sister was too badly injured and could no longer bear the burden of the Jade Pendant sealing the Demon Seed. I had no one else I could trust, so I had you and Xi Yue watch over each other.
