Chapter 981: Chapter 301: The Corridor of Yuncao Tower! Forming a Paladin Party?

"At that time, Xuexiang seemed to be sleepwalking... She left the Immortal Tower with closed eyes, walking woodenly toward outside, her hands reaching out to the sky, looking somewhat terrifying."

Yuchi nodded slightly.

Upon hearing Yinghan’s words, he really hadn’t thought of it this way before. Before coming here, he jokingly wondered if it could be rats in the Ascension Gate. But after hearing this, it indeed turned out to be rats, though a big black rat.

Reflecting again on Yinghan’s words, could it be that the hail in the Ascension Gate wasn’t a coincidence? Was it Xuexiang’s arrival that brought about the hail?

Next, Yuchi solemnly patted the back of Yinghan’s hand: "So was Xuexiang wearing clothes at the time?"

Yinghan: "..."

Wow!

Sect Leader Senior Brother, your ability to ruin the atmosphere is truly top-notch!

We were discussing something very, very serious originally, and suddenly you say things like this, is this really the honest Yuchi I know? Honestly, not even a bit, and you say the disciples drive because Qingzhu led them, but I think Qingzhu was corrupted by you!

Yuchi just chuckled and said, "Relax, don’t be afraid, speak slowly, scary things exist, but we don’t need to promote the fearful atmosphere, just treat it like a comedy and it’ll be fine. Anyway, this matter will definitely be resolved in the end."

He was naturally letting Yinghan relax a bit, after all, for such matters, it’s fine for him to be the only one getting anxious... Yes, it’s okay for him to panic, the other disciples must stay calm, not everyone can be the Sect Leader, it requires some basic warming up skills, you know.

Yinghan’s face broke into a beautiful smile.

She noticed at the same time that her hands were already in Yuchi’s hands without knowing when, so she quietly withdrew her hands, her eyes beaming with charm, and she thought for a moment before continuing seriously:

"Sect Leader Senior Brother, I won’t lie to you, I saw this with my own eyes. At that time, Xuexiang seemed completely like she was sleepwalking, as if possessed, and I didn’t dare to disturb her; I carefully approached her, wanting to see what was happening on her side."

"Then a black shadow descended from the sky, as if it merged into her body once again."

"At that moment, I saw a woman with ashen gray eyeballs. Her hair was disheveled, she locked eyes with me briefly before merging into Xuexiang’s body, and as the black shadow merged, I couldn’t see any strange shadow anymore."

Yuchi nodded thoughtfully, replaying the situation in his mind: "For the Painter to handle it better, I’d really like to know if Xuexiang was wearing any clothes, otherwise we’d have to assemble a Holy Knight."

Yinghan: "She was wearing! Wearing the sect’s azure blue long dress, the dress and waist were perfectly intact! She had shoes on, she wasn’t barefoot either!"

Oh, this would make recreating the scene easier, Yuchi recalled Yinghan’s earlier words: "So, here’s the situation, see if I’m right."

"Mm-hmm!"

"First, you happened to pass through the Martial Arts Arena in the middle of the night, and accidentally saw the black shadow appearing at the fourth Hexagonal Immortal Tower. Then, the shadow circled the Hexagonal Immortal Tower twice before soaring to the sky. And during this confusion, Xuexiang walked out of the Hexagonal Immortal Tower, appearing in a sleepwalking state uninformed of her actions." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Of course Xuexiang was wearing clothes, not because she was sleepwalking that she wasn’t wearing anything, and you were quite worried, wanting to see what’s going on with Xuexiang. So, as you approached her, the black shadow descended, in the process of descending, you two locked eyes briefly, and you saw the woman’s shadow."

"Finally, the woman’s shadow merged into Xuexiang’s body, and when you tried to look at the shadow again, you couldn’t see it; during this moment you looked up and saw the clouds gathering, and even if the hail hadn’t started immediately, it was already a forewarning."

Yuchi: "Right?"

He’s really impressive... completely analyzing the chaotic thoughts within me clearly, truly worthy of my Sect Leader Senior Brother... Bah, now’s not the time for flattery, Yinghan rubbed her cheeks to calm down, then nodded heavily and said: "Yes, the situation is just like you described, there’s no mistake!"

Yuchi understood, and the segments were already clearly outlined in his mind. While waiting for Yuchi’s next inquiry, Yinghan heard a rather serious question from Yuchi: "Did this black shadow figure wear any clothes?"

Huh?!

Does this shadow also need to be dressed appropriately? Does it really need to be shrouded in Holy Light? No way, that would instantly ruin the carefully constructed mysterious vibe, imagine those shadowy figures in suspense anime, if they appeared with Holy Light, wouldn’t it just make the audience burst into laughter...?

Yinghan’s lips curled into a slight smile, leaking a trace of blood:

"She was wearing..."

"Dressed very fully, her neck wasn’t exposed, her hands wore leather gloves, and she had thick shoes on, the whole outfit was like a standard wooden puppet attire with no areas needing extra care."
