A young female swordsman walked out from behind the hall and saluted.

"Master, has the Junior Sister been released from her restrictions?"

"Yeah." Ji Luo responded lightly with his eyes closed.

"Master, we don't need to do that mission anymore, right?"

"Um."

After getting the answer he wanted and about to leave, Ji Luo asked

"Is there any news on what Yu'er asked you to do?"

"Junior Sister asked me for many things. Which one are you asking about, Master?"

"parents."

"Oh, about this? It has been confirmed that Junior Sister's mother is the former Holy Maiden of the Fire Sea Sword Sect—Su Ying. Junior Sister's father, Li Shuo, is not sure of the exact information."

"Su Ying, the imperial clan of the Fire Sea Sword Sect—the Su clan?" Ji Luo muttered softly to himself, then asked, "Have you found out about the Li clan's roots?"

"Huh? This information is a bit biased. Let me look for it." He closed his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "The only roots he can find are Dahuai Village in Qingshan Town, where they migrated from other places a thousand years ago. I haven't found anything else."

"Keep investigating. I want to know the detailed background of the Li family."

"To what extent?"

“The more detailed, the better.”

"Understood, Master."

After the young female swordsman left, Ji Luo closed his eyes again and whispered to himself

"I never thought that the disciple I recruited from ordinary people while traveling the world according to tradition would have such a background?! It's really fate that plays tricks on me."

Thinking back to the suspicions of the Xuanwu Island Master last night and the reasons for his actions, thinking about Li Feng's talent that he had just seen, thinking about Li Feng's cultivation talent, and then thinking about the life experiences of Li Yu and his brother...

Ji Luo couldn't help but sigh.

"Xiaoyu was born just as time demands?! I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."

…

"Master, I want to have a few words with my sister alone."

"Master, I'll be waiting for you at the Lianhua Island dock."

Lotus Island, in a large hall in the center

"Feng'er, why are you here?" Li Yu exclaimed in surprise when he saw Li Feng

"I came to see you."

"Can outer disciples come in? Huh? Your aura? Have you become a swordsman?" Li Yu exclaimed in surprise when he said the last sentence.

"I just got promoted today and came here to complete the procedures for joining the sect."

"You advanced to the level of Sword Master while practicing the Sea Dragon Sword Formation... You received the Sea Dragon inheritance and became the Master of Sea Dragon Island and the Outer Sect Leader?!"

"Yeah, that's right. I didn't expect that. I just practiced the Sea Dragon Sword Formation according to the method of accelerating cultivation in the inheritance. I didn't expect so many things to happen."

"You little brat, I guess that's the case too. When you were little, you were always so reckless. You'd say anything and do anything on impulse. By the way, I heard that after practicing the Sea Dragon Sword Formation, the difficulty of becoming a Sword Master increased nearly tenfold. How did you get through that?"

"I don't know either. I don't have any special feelings. Everything happened naturally. After the Sword Master reached Great Perfection, I was promoted to Sword Master."

"You're right. It's a good thing there are only the two of us here, siblings. If there were others, they would be furious. Do you know how many swordsmen have been stuck at the level of Sword Master Grand Perfection to Sword Master? We have nearly a hundred of them on Lotus Island alone. Not to mention the difficulty has increased tenfold."

"Oh, by the way, sister, are all the people on your Lotus Island female swordsmen? I haven't seen a single male swordsman along the way."

"Yes! This is a tradition of our Lotus Island. I heard that in the beginning, both men and women could practice, but our inherited sword technique is more suitable for female swordsmen, and the difficulty for male swordsmen to practice will increase several times. Gradually, there are no male swordsmen left, and thus the tradition of Lotus Island only accepting female swordsmen has been established."

"I see. I heard you agreed to do a mission for me? What mission was it?"

"Nothing much. It's just the Four Symbols Demon Sealing Ceremony three years from now. Originally, the Xuanwu Island Master led his men to preside over it, but this time he proposed that I take his place as one of the four hosts. The other two decision-makers also agreed. If Master hadn't objected, we would have reached an agreement yesterday."

"Why did the other two people in charge agree, and why did your master object?"

"How should I know this? Yes, it's really strange. My master is very determined to oppose it. This matter is a bit strange!"

Herlin shook his head.

"Well, this matter is over. I have been promoted to Sword Master. You don't have to worry about it anymore."

"Of course. Master is against it. This Four Symbols Demon Sealing Ceremony is probably not a good thing. I don't want to go!"

It seemed that Li Yu was very convinced by her master. Based on her master's reaction, she also guessed that this was not a good thing, but for the sake of her younger brother, she was determined to go anyway.

It warmed Herlin's heart.

"By the way, you are now the island owner, we can communicate now." Li Yu suddenly called out

Then the two of them operated the job tokens and were able to communicate directly.

The island master's position token can be bound to both parties for password communication. Unlike other ordinary disciples, they can only communicate with the sect.

This password was also very simple. Both of them were smart people and learned it in just a quarter of an hour.

"We have to keep in touch. If anything happens, you must tell me, okay?"

"Same thing, sister. If you have any strange missions like this again, remember to let me know."

The two talked about their lives for a while, and Li Yu hesitated and said

"By the way, Feng'er, I found my mother."

"Hmm? Where is it?" Herlin asked in a deep voice.

"In the Fire Sea Sword Sect's Hell of Fire."

"Hellfire?" It doesn't sound like a good place.

"That's where the Fire Sea Sword Sect holds serious criminals."
