Li Qiu stared intently at the bright silver paper in his hand, seeing drawn upon it a monk's head trapped inside a cage, and immediately understood that something had happened to the monk.
The empathy talisman had been activated by Xiaoxiao. Although the monk's head was drawn with clumsy, crooked strokes, the expression of compassion between the brows still managed to filter through a tiny sliver via the paper. It seemed that Jiushou, who was familiar with Xiaoxiao and the others, must have run into some trouble, and certainly not a minor one at that, which was why Xiaoxiao had activated the empathy talisman.
Li Qiu furrowed his brow, feeling somewhat baffled. Given Jiushou's temperament and disposition, he was truly unrestrained and unruly outside the sect; drinking wine and eating meat were all a given for him. Yet upon returning to Liubo Mountain, he had appeared exceptionally well-behaved, never once committing a single offense against the rules in front of his fellow disciples and martial grand-uncles. Therefore, to claim that the sect was punishing Jiushou and had locked him away simply did not make sense.
