Seeing Yao Xuan like this, Yao Lao slowly raised a hand and patted him on the shoulder. He said gravely:
"You needn't be so anxious..."
"You see, after Xiao Yi Xian emerged from seclusion, I found a ruin left by another bearer of the Innate Calamity Poison Body. I sent her to see whether it might help her..."
"But once she left, all word from her ceased..."
"So I thought, since there's still time before the Gu Clan Coming-of-Age Ceremony, you could go to the ruin and take a look..."
Hearing Yao Lao's explanation, Yao Xuan nodded...
Indeed, since arriving at Starfall Pavilion, he had been away so often that he had not seen Xiao Yi Xian in a long time, even after she entered seclusion...
He wondered how she was doing now...
Though Xiao Yi Xian had absorbed the Yin-Yang Twin Flame and temporarily brought the effects of her Woeful Poison Body under control...
She knew full well just how badly Yao Xuan needed Heavenly Flames!
So she had spent this time searching for a way to truly resolve her Woeful Poison Body. Then she could give the Yin-Yang Twin Flame to Yao Xuan as one last way to help him...
Thus, when she heard that Yao Lao had found such a ruin for her, she chose to go without hesitation...
Yao Xuan looked at Yao Lao and asked:
"Uncle Chen..."
"How long has Xiao Yi Xian been at that ruin?"
Yao Lao frowned. "Not very long. She went there after emerging from seclusion..."
"But that ruin is no simple place. I had wanted to send an elder of the pavilion with her..."
"Unfortunately, that girl is rather strong-willed. She didn't want to trouble anyone, so she went alone..."
"Now that you're back, go and take a look..."
