Chapter 912 - Pretty Awesome (1/2)
Wu Min Huan was surprised when he suddenly saw the two people standing in front of him. He had relocated to his Master's study to handle all official matters and just like his Master, he didn't prevent anyone from entering the place.
If there was something a disciple wanted, they could come in whenever they felt like it. Most of them would inform the disciples at the door and let them announce them but naturally, Qiu Ling didn't bother about niceties like that. Since there was something he and his beloved wanted to know, they would naturally go and inquire themselves. Why would they take any extra steps if it could be so easy? It was much faster this way and they'd be able to spend their time alone together soon!
Wu Min Huan raised his brows and then got up, finally showing a smile. ”Junior martial brother Zhong, senior martial brother Qiu, you're back!” Actually, he didn't know Qiu Ling too well but he still had a very good impression of Jing Yi from back when he had entered the Yun Zou Sect. Even several years later, this impression hadn't worn off.
Qiu Ling furrowed his brows when he saw Wu Min Huan's reaction. This person … It couldn't be that he was in love with his beloved, could it?!
Jing Yi smiled wryly when he noticed the way Qiu Ling looked from Wu Min Huan to him and back again. He reached over and patted his arm while he nodded at Wu Min Huan. ”Senior martial brother Wu, greetings. I hope we're not disturbing you.”
Wu Min Huan excitedly shook his head. ”But of course not! I'm actually happy that I'm able to take a break. Why don't you sit down? Do you want some tea?”
Jing Yi shook his head. Normally, he would gladly say yes but he was too worried to be able to calmly enjoy a cup. ”Actually, there's something we'd like to talk about with you.”
Wu Min Huan raised his brows. ”What is it about?” He still motioned for them to sit down though. Anyway, there was no need to stand around talking. ”If there's some way I can help you, I'd be happy to do so. Just tell me about it.”
Jing Yi glanced at Qiu Ling and sighed. ”Well, we just returned and then found out that Shao Hai and Xiao Dong have also gone missing just like senior martial brother Nian's lover. And senior martial brother Nian hinted that the person that was currently visiting him had something to do with it. Can you tell us more about that?”
Wu Min Huan also sighed when he heard what this was about. ”Right, the three of you were friends, weren't you? What did Nian Hong Fang tell you exactly?”
”There wasn't much he could say since that Shen Qiang was standing right next to him. He only said that they didn't return from a mission.”
Wu Min Huan nodded. ”Well, it's slightly more complicated than that. A while back, Nian Hong Fang got a letter from Wu Min Huan. That Shen Qiang was the one who delivered it here. Just when he left to bring Nian Hong Fang's response back, Shao Hai and Xiao Dong were returning to the sect from the mission they had been doing on their Master's order. Nian Hong Fang asked them to follow Shen Qiang to find out where Ma Zhi Wu was being held. He didn't tell anybody about it since, well, we didn't do a lot to find out about the situation before that. I guess he was afraid that it would be prevented again.”
”And then they didn't return?”
