Yu Ke'er's pretty face turned a little red, but she obediently took the two ancient jade boxes with her as she followed him back home.
The next day, just as the sky began to turn white, Yu Ke'er put on the set of earrings and hairpin she'd been given and then cheerfully left the house. She had originally planned to have Su Qi take Zhiyan with her to tour the spiritual fields of Alchemy Mountain, but now, she decided to go there herself.
As for Su Yu, he went to the three-layered Ice and Fire cave at the base of Alchemy Mountain.
Sitting cross-legged at the centre of the two caves, he calmed his heart and mind, entering a state of meditation. Moments later, he swallowed a Perfect grade Second class Opening Element Pill. Once the pill's medicinal effect spread within his body, he used the Cicada Technique, enveloping his entire body in a resplendent golden cicada light as he began to carry out the day's cultivation silently.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
