"Goodbye, fellow disciples," Yuan said to Elder Shan's disciples before leaving the premises.
The two disciples watched as Yuan's figure disappeared into the distance, and they mumbled—
"Just who is that Outer Court disciple? What relationship does he have with our Master?" Qian Qi asked out loud.
"I have never seen him before so I don't know. But if he can come to this place as an Outer Court disciple then there must be something special about him. Maybe he's from a powerful family," said Bei Bei the Core Disciple.
A couple of minutes later, once the pain dealt by Xiao Hua had finally disappeared, Elder Shan came back outside and returned to their lectures.
When her disciples saw this, they wondered if she would tell them about that mysterious Outer Court disciple later, but alas, Elder Shan never mentioned Yuan even after their lecture ended.
