The moment Lu Yi stepped outside, he saw Donggong Mingyue, dressed in a purple dress, standing prettily by the door. She rose onto the tips of her little feet again and again, stretching her neck as she boredly looked around.
When she saw Lu Yi emerge, Donggong Mingyue broke into a delighted smile. "Junior Brother, you're out. Senior Sister Ning Shuang has left seclusion. Let's go see her first, then head to the Trial Tower together."
"Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang has left seclusion?" Lu Yi asked in surprise.
"Yeah. Peak Master just told me, and she said she wanted you to meet Senior Sister Ning Shuang too."
Lu Yi: "..."
Why had Peak Master not told him directly? Was it because he had been cultivating the whole time lately?
Still, at the thought of seeing Liu Ningshuang, Lu Yi felt a small flicker of anticipation. It would be great if he could build up enough favorability quickly and make Senior Sister Liu fall for him.
Those rewards were simply too tempting.
Lu Yi came back to himself and smiled. "All right, then. Let's go."
Donggong Mingyue nodded, and the two headed toward Liu Ningshuang's cave residence.
Liu Ningshuang's cave residence was not far from those of Lu Yi and Donggong Mingyue. After walking only a short distance, they arrived outside it.
Donggong Mingyue called from the entrance, "Senior Sister Ning Shuang! Peak Master told me to bring you to the Trial Tower for testing."
Before long, the stone doors of the cave residence opened, and a cool, familiar figure appeared at the entrance.
Liu Ningshuang wore a white dress, her temperament cold and aloof. She still looked like someone no stranger should approach.
Donggong Mingyue ran over with a grin. "Senior Sister Ning Shuang, you've left seclusion?"
Liu Ningshuang nodded
