Kai Zhen Disappears...
"Rain Faerie Su Jie! Help me break out of Suming hall and I will give you 50 years of my cultivation!"
"50 years of your cultivation prowess?! Are you going to be alive by the time you pass your spirit energy to me?! I don't want High Immortal Lan Quan coming after me!"
Su Jie the rain faerie that was assigned to provide rain to the heavens and earthly beings looked at the cat faerie with eyes that narrowed with unbelief. Kai Zhen's eyes had gone desperate, the cat faerie wanted to leave Suming hall at all cost.
"Yushi is the staff that has enough spirit energy to create a hole big enough for Faerie Kai Zhen to pass through, but he is a cat spirit! He doesn't have wings to fly through! How is he going to cross over and make it outside the barrier?!"
50 years of cultivation was too good of an opportunity to pass up, this was why the rain faerie had to think of a way to get Kai Zhen out. After going through different scenarios on how to go about lending a hand to the cat faerie, Su Jie finally found a solution to their dilemma.
"Faerie Kai Zhen! I found a way!"
In her state of excitement, Su Jie almost fell from the cloud that she was standing on.
"You have?"
"Yes! Faerie Kai Zhen! Yushi and Weixin will get you out of Suming hall!"
The rain faerie's eyes had taken on a sparkling look as she patted the hand fan tucked by her waist, taking in one smooth motion a long wooden staff that was at her feet using her spiritual aura.
"Who is Yushi?!"

Back at Suming hall, Lan Quan was brewing the medicinal elixir and making fresh batches of medicinal pills to be used by the immortals he served. His temper had long since dissolved into a state of calmness while stirring the cauldron with rapt attention.
"Kai Zhen! Bring me the endless blue bell flowers that is in the top shelf!"
Silence met his call, this made Lan Quan to pause midway to look around him using his inner sense to seek out the whereabouts of his disciple.
"Where could that lazy disciple of mine have run off to?"
It was then that Lan Quan release his spirit energy of dazzling blue into the cauldron as a binding agent.
"The barrier is in place, so why can't I see where he is?!"
Puzzled that he could not point out where Kai Zhen was, Lan Quan intensified his search. Thinking that he wasn't using enough spirit energy to sniff out the hiding place of his only disciple.
"He will show up when it's time to eat.... Moreover, he isn't strong enough to break my impenetrable barrier! This is very important; I need to get them to the heavenly emperor!"
The Medicine King's used his spiritual energy to open the top shelf where the plant that he need was.
To Lan Quan, getting the medicinal elixir and pills to Qilin hall was more important than looking for a mischievous disciple.
Unknown to Lan Quan, the disciple that was under his tutelage had long since escaped out of the barrier with the help of a Faerie who misused the magical tool that was meant to maintain balance in the nine heavens and mortal realm. Earlier, Lan Quan sensed the disturbance in the barrier around Suming hall, but he assumed that his disciple's spiritual energy was not high enough to safely break free from the barrier, never would he have thought that another would collude with Kai Zhen.
