It's not that Fairy Mist Island is bad, it's just that staying there for too long makes you feel trapped, and you can't help but want to leave the island and have some fun.
Apart from Zhu Lin, the other senior brothers and sisters had also secretly left the island, truly secretly, without letting the others on the island know.
The six senior brothers and sisters covered for each other and took turns going out for fun. Even Zhu Lin didn't know about it.
Xingxing was curious about how the three old men could run faster than horses, so she refused to walk too fast and kept pestering Zhu Lin to look back. Then she saw the three old men disappear quickly like a gust of wind, their figures barely visible.
"How did you do that? That's amazing!" Xingxing exclaimed with envy.
"Practice diligently, and once your lightness skill reaches a certain level, you'll be able to move with lightning speed. Everyone on Immortal Mist Island has this ability," Zhu Lin explained calmly.
"I'm determined to train hard so I can run faster than a horse someday," Xingxing practically swore to the heavens.
"Okay, you can definitely do it." The boy quickened his pace, his voice carried away by the wind.

"Can Gu Yiqiao win?" Boss Zhou sidled up and asked.
Zhu Chumo opened his eyes and said expressionlessly, "Gu Yiqiao survived a great calamity and will surely have good fortune in the future. He will naturally be fine. The one who will be in trouble is Gu Yiyuan. His good days are over."
It seems we don't need to worry about the Gu family anymore. What about their situation here?
There shouldn't be any men in black attacking tonight, right? This is the same road we came by, and walking it again makes Boss Zhou a little uneasy.
"Uncle Zhou, go to sleep without worry. We're here to keep an eye on things. There's nothing to be afraid of, whether it's an assassin or a wild beast," Zhu Qingruo reassured him with a smile.
Apart from Zhou Laoda and his wife, everyone else present acted as if nothing was wrong, especially the five Fu brothers, who couldn't wait for another group of men in black to come so they could get revenge for their previous pursuit.
