Who is she?
That question flashed through Han Ye's mind as he met Chu Xianyu's somewhat cold eyes, just about to say something to explain.
Ning Yujing, standing beside him, smiled slightly and saved Han Ye from his awkward dilemma.
"Greetings, Senior Sister. I am a new disciple here to assist in caring for the spiritual plants. Please guide me in the future."
"A new disciple?"
Chu Xianyu glanced at Ning Yujing, not exactly in a pleasant mood.
For some reason, she felt an air about the newcomer that made her uncomfortable.
"A new disciple and you lead them straight to the cave mansion. Han Ye, you sure are bold."
Chu Xianyu's tone didn't get any better with Junior Sister Ning's explanation; her expression remained stern as ever.
"She is really just a new disciple."
Han Ye gave a bitter laugh.
"Very well, new disciple, let's move on to the Sect Leader's task. It is quite important."
