Chapter 318: Arriving at Dawn

After getting a few hours of sleep, Fang Yu was awoken by her grandmother as she quickly gave her thanks to the old lady before rushing out of her courtyard in the direction of the different mountains where the elders of the Flying Sword Sect resided.

Running through the Flying Sword Sect on her way over towards the location of Xuan Hao's pavilion, Fang Yu suddenly remembered the fact that she had no idea what mountain his pavilion was located on… If she made a mistake, she might end up walking up the wrong Core Elders Mountain.

Not really something she wanted to happen, as trespassing in a core area of the Flying Sword Sect would end with her being punished to some degree. At that point she would not be able to reach Xuan Hao's pavilion at dawn… Worst case scenario, she could even end up getting expelled from the Flying Sword Sect!

"Greetings Elder! Do you perhaps know where Elder Xuan's pavilion is located?" Seeing an elder coming back from a night out in the Flying Sword City, Fang Yu did not shy away from walking over and asking him.

"Hm? Elder Xuan? Might I ask why you are looking for Elder Xuan so early in the morning?"

Seeing an inner disciple suddenly appear in front of him and ask about one of the Core Elders, the elder did not answer immediately and instead asking about her intentions. Clearly not willing to just share the information with her if she was just some disciple looking for one of the Core Elders in a hope to be accepted as a personal disciple…

Over the past few days, a few of the disciples should have already learned about the fact that Xuan Hao had reached the Domain Lord Realm and it was not his first time that he had been approached by a disciple who asked about which mountain among the ones belonging to the Core Elders that Xuan Hao was living on… Even if they knew that going there could result in punishment and in the worst case being expelled from the Flying Sword Sect!

However even with all of this, some disciples would still try and approach the Core Elders from time to time… Though in most cases, the elders who had reached the Peak of the Core Formation Realm like himself suffered the most from disciples coming to try and become personal disciples…

After all, it was more likely for them to become the personal disciple of someone in the Core Formation Realm compared to a Core Elder in the Nascent Soul Realm…

"I was asked to visit his pavilion at dawn, but I have no idea where his pavilion is even located in the first place…" Not knowing about the thoughts that was going through the elder's mind, Fang Yu did not hide anything as she answered his question truthfully.

Narrowing his eyes as he scanned over Fang Yu for a short moment, the elder soon let out a small sigh as he answered her. At the very least, he could tell that Fang Yu had been speaking the truth when he asked her why she was asking about the location for Elder Xuan's pavilion.

"It's the one to the right of the Sect Master's Mountain, you should at least know where that is located…"

"Yes, I know! Thank you for the help, Elder!"

Hearing the location of Xuan Hao's pavilion, Fang Yu smiled happily as she quickly thanked the elder before turning around to run in the direction of Xuan Hao's pavilion.

"Why would Elder Xuan ask for this little girl to come visit him? Is he perhaps taking in another disciple or just helping a troubled disciple with something?"

Muttering this to himself as he watched Fang Yu disappear towards the core area of the Flying Sword Sect, the elder soon shook his head before making his way back towards his own place to get some much-needed rest.

He would have to ask around with a few of his friends tomorrow and see if Elder Xuan was planning to take in yet another disciple… At least from what he could remember, it had at most been a few days since Elder Xuan had taken in a new disciple and now, yet another potential disciple had suddenly appeared!

…

Following her encounter with the elder and getting the correct location of Xuan Hao's pavilion, Fang Yu no longer felt nervous about accidently walking up the wrong Core Elder's Mountain and all of her worry instead ended up being focused on the fact that she was going to meet with Xuan Hao in a short moment!

No matter how much her grandmother had tried to calm her down beforehand, Fang Yu was still incredibly nervous about the prospect of meeting a Core Elder. Even if she had spent quite some time together with him back at the Formation Hall, she had only believed him to be a normal elder like her grandmother back then and did not have any difficulty communicating with him at all!

"The sun is rising!"

Slowing down the closer she got to Xuan Hao's Mountain peak, Fang Yu suddenly noticed the first few rays of light appearing at the mountains surrounding the Flying Sword Sect in the distance.

Seeing this caused her to throw away all of her nervousness as she used her cultivation base to run over to and quickly scale the mountain that Xuan Hao's pavilion was located on.

Not worrying about anything other than what might happen if she ended up arriving late.

What if he decided not to help her out because she showed up late?!

Fang Yu did not want something like that to happen, so she had put aside all of her worry and nervousness. Instead, just focusing on getting up the mountain as quickly as possible!

"I see that you made it on time!" The sun had barely risen, when Fang Yu reached the peak of the mountain. Only to be met with the calm smile of Xuan Hao who stood at the entrance to his pavilion. Almost like he had been standing there waiting from the beginning.
