When Qin Luo turned to look at Feng Zhaolin, she found her face filled with excitement.

"What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly turn out like this?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Zhaolin rubbed his face somewhat embarrassed.

"No, it's nothing. It's just that I haven't heard the headmaster call me that in a long time. Come on, I'll take you to your lodgings."

After saying that, he led the two people towards Xieyun Peak.

The headmaster watched their retreating figures, then sighed and walked a long way away.

"Hopefully, you will be a turning point for this world..."

After a moment of reflection, I looked up at the somewhat gray sky, my eyes filled with disappointment mixed with a glimmer of hope.

Qin Luo and Wu Hua followed Feng Zhaolin, and after nearly an hour they still hadn't reached their destination.

They were climbing stairs and taking shortcuts; anyone who didn't know better would think they were on a wilderness adventure.

"Fellow Daoist Feng Zhao, what your abbot said is a bit off-topic, isn't it a bit too off-topic? What kind of place did she actually tell us to stay in? And where is your crane? Can you use it to carry us again?"

After Qin Luo finished speaking, Feng Zhaolin felt slightly embarrassed.

"The crane was exhausted when it flew back and is resting in the Spirit Beast Garden. As for Xieyun Peak, you'll find out when you get there."

The three walked for another half an hour before finally spotting the so-called dwelling.

As the distance closed, the outline of Xieyun Peak gradually became clearer.

The little thatched hut looked even more dilapidated in the setting sun.

The two enormous mythical beast statues in front of the gate seem quite superfluous.

The three slowed down, and Feng Zhaolin had Qin Luo take out the jade tablet.

Before placing the statue, Qin Luo did as instructed, and only then did the barrier in front of the thatched hut slowly open.

The three stepped into the thatched hut and discovered that although it was small, it had everything they needed.

It's a bit dilapidated, but thankfully, just as the headmaster said, there's almost no resentment.

The tables, chairs, and benches were spotless, and the teapot was full of water.

There were still some unprepared ingredients in the kitchen, and the bedding was very clean and tidy.

It was obvious that someone lived there, and worried that someone might be sharing the room, so Qin Luo asked.

"I wonder who still lives here?"

Feng Zhaolin understood that since the headmaster had allowed them to live here...

Without needing to hide anything, he told the two of them the purpose of this place.

"No, it's just the two of you. This used to be the academy's training ground, and it's also the place with the thinnest spiritual energy in Haolan Academy."

Knowing that it was just her and Wu Hua living there, Qin Luo felt relieved.

Instead, he asked another question.

"The headmaster's cultivation place? How do you know about her cultivation place? Didn't she say she doesn't like you? She shouldn't tell you about such a private place."

As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Zhaolin suddenly froze.

Yes, if anyone should know, it should be the senior sister who knows.

Although she was puzzled, she showed no sign of it on her face.

"I only found out by chance when the headmaster mentioned it."

Qin Luo, however, had no intention of letting her off the hook and continued to press her for answers.

"Do the others know about this, especially your senior sister?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Zhaolin felt a surge of joy, and his voice became much lighter.

"She didn't know that only the headmaster and I knew about this place. The senior sister only thought it was a dilapidated and abandoned little courtyard."

Qin Luo nodded thoughtfully.

"That headmaster is quite nice to you."

Feng Zhaolin strongly agrees with this point.

"Aside from his harsh words, the headmaster is very good."

After listening, Qin Luo clicked his tongue twice.

"What a blockhead! The reason she spoke so harshly to you was probably to protect you."

Before Feng Zhaolin could react, Wu Hua had already nodded her little head in response.

"Yes, if she were to be nice to you on the surface, you'd probably die even faster."

After listening, Feng Zhaolin looked completely puzzled.

"What do you mean? Why should I die?"

"I don't know the specifics, but I know that the headmaster cares about you a lot, but his attitude towards your senior sister is just superficial."

"How could that be? My senior sister and I were both raised by the headmaster. My senior sister was always pampered from a young age, while I..."

Qin Luo was somewhat skeptical upon hearing this.

"Are you sure? Why don't you think about it carefully? Is there some kind of turning point?"

Feng Zhaolin thought and thought, but still couldn't come up with a solution.

"I only remember being seriously ill as a child; I have no memory of anything before that. My other memories are filled with being constantly disliked and rejected..."

Qin Luo understood immediately; this must be the turning point.

However, too many things are still unclear at the moment, so we can only ask the headmaster in person later.

"If you can't remember, don't think about it. We'll ask later. Let's not waste time here and hurry back, or we might not get there by 9 PM."

Feng Zhaolin then remembered to check the time, and saw that the sky, which had just been glowing with a hint of dawn, was still bright.

Now it was as dark as ink, and she hurriedly urged the two of them...

"Let's hurry up. Judging from the sky, it's probably already 7 PM. If we set off immediately, we should be able to arrive on time."

As she spoke, she prepared to walk out of the thatched hut, but Wu Hua knocked her unconscious with a wave of her small hand.

Seeing this, Qin Luo quickly helped Feng Zhaolin, who almost fell to the ground.

Then he looked at Wu Hua.

"Little one, what are you doing?"

Wu Hua rolled her eyes at her in disgust.

"Are you stupid? Why did you accompany her for more than three hours when you could get there with just a flap of your wings?"

After he finished speaking, Qin Luo raised his hand and scratched the back of his head.

"Hehe, you're right."

Wu Hua didn't reply, but instead waved at them.

Then, the three of them appeared in the space.

Whenever Mao Mao sees them, he always rushes over immediately.
