"Young master!"
Another startled cry rang out aboard the Treasure Ship, this time from a sprightly old woman dressed in the robes of the Heaven Mending Sect.
She was none other than Granny Xihua!
"What are you doing here? Are you crossing regions?"
Curious, Lin Fan looked them over and discovered quite a few Heaven Mending Sect disciples aboard the great ship. They were clearly setting out on a long journey.

Lin Fan shook his head and lingered
