The Middle Three Heavens — Mo Clan's residence…
Mo Qingwu had been feeling better since the Young Master of the major clans had come to visit her.
However, her father – Mo Xingchen – discovered that his little daughter was turning more and more reticent. She would practice martial arts every day, but she would just sit alone in her small courtyard for the rest of the day. She'd hug that scabbard, and stare at it in a daze.
Her disposition had become quiet and reserved from her previously lively and adorable self. In fact, she seemed to be lost in worries at such a young age. She no longer hugged him, or called him 'father' as sweetly as she used to. She no longer showed him that sweet smiling face of hers either.
She would occasionally run into a clan member. But, she would merely give them a vacant look, and then walk on.
