"You really are Miss Shen! How are you not dead? It's a ghost! It's a ghost!" The old woman's eyes widened in horror as she bolted wildly out the front door.
Hiding somewhere outside the estate, Wu Mengyao watched this scene unfold, extremely satisfied with the old woman's performance. At the same time, she thought to herself inwardly: "Binglan, do not blame your master for deceiving you. Right now, you are at the critical juncture of breaking through to the Dao Integration period and becoming a top-tier cultivator of the Nine Provinces and Mountains and Seas realm. You must never let your Dao heart waver. Even though everything your master has done will become a mental demon when you undergo your Tribulation Crossing—and when you begin your Tribulation Crossing, you will automatically recall your true life and realize your master deceived you—your master believes that by that time, you will no longer be bound by worldly affections and attachments. You will be single-mindedly devoted to walking the path of ascending to immortality, understand your master's well-intentioned efforts, and then help our Hanli Ice Palace ascend into the ranks of the top major sects of the Nine Provinces and Mountains and Seas realm..."
Shen Binglan had no idea Wu Mengyao had been trailing her all the way. After stepping out through the main gates, she hesitated for a moment before flying off in the direction of Shen'an City.
