In the air above Serpentwing Lake. A tall, willowy, silver-armored woman appeared, standing atop a giant sword.
"Ji Ning!" The silver-armored woman called out in a high voice. Swoosh! A wind suddenly howled forth from Brightheart Lake, and then Ji Ning appeared in midair.
"You are…?" Ji Ning looked at the silver-armored woman.
"My mistress is your 'senior apprentice-sister Ninelotus'. Per the orders from my mistress, I have come to notify you of something," the silver-armored woman said. Ning, actually, had already guessed that this woman had something to do with Ninelotus.
"My mistress said that she needs to remain within her clan for a time and won't be able to come out in the near future. She asks you to wait for her patiently." The silver-armored woman said in a cold, clear voice, "Mistress also said that the two of you could take this opportunity to consider if the two of you were perhaps too rash in deciding to become Dao-companions."
