Lu Yin and Moon Fairy instinctively fell a few steps behind Zhaoran, afraid someone might recognize them. How embarrassing!
When Xuan Jiu saw Zhaoran, he froze. His face immediately fell. "Little Ancestor, could you please stop clinging to me?"

Only then did everyone notice Lu Yin and Moon Fairy. A wave of surprised exclamations went up around them.
