Hearing Zhu Que’s words, Ji Mingyu turned around and looked at her coldly.
Startled, Zhu Que hastily gestured, and an image of a woman appeared before Ji Mingyu. ‘This is who Yun Tianyi brought from the Miluo Continent. She refers to herself as Nalan Hexi,’ she explained.
“Nalan Hexi…” Ji Mingyu was startled, then muttered and repeated, “Hexi…”
“Master, do you need me to bring her to you?” Zhu Que asked cautiously.
With a cold expression, Ji Mingyu sneered, “No!”Zhu Que was not surprised at all when she heard this answer. The moment she saw this woman, she knew she wasn’t Miss Xi.
She recognized it in an instant, and naturally, so did the master who had been captivated by her for so long.
However, everyone in the palace had been dispatched, and the Realm Mobilization Edict was issued. Why was there still no news about the girl after so long?
Was she no longer on the Siam Continent?
If they truly never find her, what’s the master supposed to do?
Worry flickered in Zhu Que’s eyes as she fretted. Suddenly, the purple-gold bracelet in her hand lit up.
This purple gold bracelet was her storage device, and it also served communication and defensive functions.Right then, the bracelet emitted a blue glow, signaling an incoming message.
Zhu Que used spiritual power to activate the purple-gold bracelet, and soon, a young man appeared before him.
The young man was strikingly handsome and stood tall. A mischievous charm played around his lips with a slight smile, but when his laughter deepened, dimples danced on his cheeks, lending him an air of youthful innocence.
“Tao Tie!” Zhu Que cried out and grumbled, “It’s been days! You finally decide to get in touch? You vanished in the blink of an eye. Where on earth have you been?”
Tao Tie smiled harmlessly, yawned, and said, “Don’t call me Tao Tie; I go by Wu Yu now.”
“What?” Zhu Que blinked. She then quickly spotted several people behind Tao Tie and asked, “Where are you now? Why do you want to be called Wu Yu?”
Tao Tie cocked his head to one side, looking a bit puzzled. “I don’t know; I just think this name sounds nice, and it suits me well.”
Then, he cleared his throat and said, “Is the master here? I have some news to report.”
Zhu Que’s eyes lit up when she heard this, “Do you have any news about Miss Xi?”
As she spoke, she swiftly infused additional spiritual energy into her bracelet. Within moments, the image of Tao Tie, previously visible only to her, materialized in front of Ji Mingyu.
Tao Tie knelt and bent on one knee, “Greetings, Master!”
Ji Mingyu just glanced at him and said coldly, “Do you have any news about her?”
Tao Tie grinned and remarked, “It’s both yes and no. Master, I’ve found Jun Yueze, the charlatan called [Heavenly Strategist] in the Jun Family. Oh… why do I refer to him as a charlatan? What’s a charlatan?”
Zhu Que coughed softly to reel in his wandering thoughts. “You’re speaking of Jun Yueze, the legendary seer who’s rumored to predict anything in the world? Did he possibly discern where Miss Xi might be?”
Before Tao Tie could answer, Ji Mingyu said in a deep voice, “He can’t.”
His words were cool and undisturbed, yet carried an unmistakable certainty—a complete and utter conviction.
Tao Tie stared at Ji Mingyu in disbelief. “Master, how did you know? Jun Yueze himself admitted he couldn’t divine the answer, marking his very first failure.”
Ji Mingyu remained silent, the furrow between his brows deepening.
