Several days later, before the council bamboo hut on Azure Profound Peak.
Yao Yao walked over at an unhurried pace, her green robes fluttering around her graceful figure. Her exquisite jade-like face was cool and ethereal, causing the passing Cang Xuan Sect disciples to turn their heads, yet none dared approach her.
"Yao Yao?" Li Qingchan walked out of the bamboo hut. Seeing Yao Yao, she was slightly startled before smiling. "You finished your mission and came back?" A trace of surprise colored her voice.
Over the past few days, Yao Yao had acted completely out of character, becoming exceptionally "hardworking." She had proactively accepted several missions involving guarding and exploring newly discovered treasure lands, utterly unlike her usual cool and lazy self.
Yao Yao nodded lightly. She had a favorable impression of this Snow Lotus Peak Saint Child, who had shown her goodwill on several occasions, and a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.
"Are there any new Six-Colored Treasure Land missions?" Yao Yao asked directly, her tone calm.
Li Qingchan was even more surprised upon hearing this. "You just got back. Aren't you going to rest? You've been taking mission after mission these past few days. You're working far too hard."
There was a trace of concern in her beautiful eyes. Her gaze subconsciously swept toward the direction of the rear mountain where Mo Lin had been in seclusion, only to find it quiet and still, without the slightest movement. Her heart stirred slightly. Junior Brother Mo Lin... doesn't seem to be on the peak?
Yao Yao gently shook her head. "It's fine."
Looking at Yao Yao's cool yet resolute eyes, thoughts raced through Li Qingchan's mind. She was exceedingly intelligent and immediately guessed that Yao Yao was working herself so hard mostly because of Mo Lin.
