The Three Sovereigns Dao Palace.
"This young lady should be Xiahou You, the eldest daughter of the Xiahou Clan's current head, shouldn't she?"
When she saw the two Cloud Talismans Gu Qingcheng used to clear a path for Xu Taiping, Vice Palace Master Yun Shiliu immediately guessed her true identity.
"Xiahou You? Didn't you recommend that girl to me some years ago?"
The Old Palace Master kept his eyes on the Spirit Mirror before him and asked without turning his head.
"Yes." Yun Shiliu nodded. "You didn't think much of her at the time, Old Palace Master. Then she became trapped in the Mysterious Wasteland Tower, and the matter was left unresolved."
"Once the affairs of the Mysterious Wasteland Tower are settled, Shiliu, arrange for her to meet This Old Man. This Old Man wants to test her personally and see whether she can study This Old Man's Nine Books of Cloud Talisman."
At these words, Yun Shiliu's beautiful eyes immediately lit up, and she nodded repeatedly.
"Rest assured, Old Palace Master. As soon as she leaves the tower, I'll bring her here."
The Old Palace Master's Nine Books of Cloud Talisman was one of the Three Sovereigns Dao Palace's most powerful supreme arts. Every year, each palace sent its disciples most gifted in the art of Cloud Talismans to seek his instruction, hoping he might take them as his successor.
But the Old Palace Master's requirements for his successor's aptitude were extremely exacting. No one had caught his eye to this day, so Yun Shiliu was naturally delighted to hear that he was considering teaching Xiahou You the Nine Books of Cloud Talisman.
"Why are you suddenly willing to meet this girl?"
Although Yun Shiliu had some guesses, she still wanted to hear the Old Palace Master's explanation herself.
