"You're right!" Tao Qingli nodded, "When I accompanied the Palace Lord to the Realm Beyond Heaven to visit the Celestial Sage, she secretly told us that someone had spotted the Netherdragon Ship reappearing. Fortunately, the Palace Lord is one of the Celestial Sage's most trusted comrades, which is why she handed this mission down to our Traversing Water Palace to accomplish."
What really happened was, after Granny Tao and Tao Qingli met up with the Celestial Sage, they began talking about the usual things and reminiscing about the past. At the time, the Celestial Sage's disciples were present as well. Then, all of a sudden, someone came in looking for the eldest disciple of the Celestial Sage — Huyan Taibao. Huyan Taibao followed that person out, then hurriedly rushed back. No one knew what he had secretly conveyed to the Celestial Sage through voice transmission, but her expression instantly changed afterward.
