“Miss Nan, what’s wrong with you?” Seeing Ke Jiu suddenly stop and stare blankly in one direction, Lin Xuan stepped forward and asked with concern.

The coldness in Ke Jiu’s eyes gradually faded, his expression returned to normal, and he shook his head gently: “Nothing, Master Lin… Let’s go.”

Lin Xuan’s heart moved. Although he felt that the other party had something wrong in his heart, it was not easy to speculate too much.

He nodded immediately and said, “Miss Nan, what do you think about this fog?”

“Today’s assessment is just about to begin,” Ke Jiu said softly, “and this fog has arrived. If we can’t even get out of this fog, then we don’t have to participate in the assessment.”

“So…Miss Nan, from your perspective, this fog is part of the Jinghang Sect’s assessment?”

“Yes.”

While Lin Xuan was hesitating, Huo Xiaoliang grabbed his sleeve.

“Ah Xuan, do you have any ideas? Let’s get out of this fog together…”

“If Miss Nan’s guess is correct, this fog is probably not an ordinary natural phenomenon. It is probably unrealistic to wait for it to dissipate. We can’t just sit there and wait.”

Lin Xuan glanced at Ke Jiu, then his eyes fell on Huo Xiaoliang, and he comforted her: “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Let’s move forward first and see.”

“Listen to Master Lin.” Ke Jiu had no objection.

“Then let’s go.” Lin Xuan chose a mountain road to move forward.

She could see through the essence of the white fog at a glance. If she were to lead the way, they would be able to walk out of it in less than half an hour.

But after all, this was their entry test, and Ke Jiu just wanted to take this opportunity to observe the people taking the test, as well as inspect the recent unstable cave opening situation in Liuyun Mountains.

Therefore, we will not interfere too much in the content of their assessment itself.

“By the way, I haven’t personally expressed my gratitude to Senior Chengnan for rescuing me earlier.” Lin Xuan suddenly turned around and bowed to her to express his gratitude.

Ke Jiu was slightly stunned, but then she suddenly remembered that when she rescued them in Dongtian before, she used this identity when she called herself her sister.

“Well, it’s just a small favor from my sister.”

“Senior Nan, are you from the inner sect of the Jinghang Sect?” A flash of eagerness passed through Lin Xuan’s eyes.

Ke Jiu already understood what he was thinking, and said calmly: “Mr. Lin, don’t think too much. Although my sister is from the inner sect of Jinghang Sect, she didn’t tell me the content of the assessment, and I didn’t take any backdoor route.”

She was telling the truth, because she had never participated in the entrance examination for disciples of the Jinghang Sect and really did not know the content of the examination.

“Is that so?” Lin Xuan’s hopes were dashed and a hint of disappointment appeared on his face.

Although he didn’t completely believe what Ke Jiu said, the other party had expressed his refusal, and further questioning would not lead to better results.

Lin Xuan knew it very well and did not dwell on it. He continued walking along the same path.

After half an hour, he suddenly realized something was wrong, looked at the stone pillar beside him, and stopped.

Huo Xiaoliang noticed that something was wrong with him.

“Ah Xuan, what’s wrong with you? Did you find anything?”

“Xiaoliang, do you remember this stone pillar?”

Huo Xiaoliang looked at the stone pillar that Lin Xuan pointed out and said blankly: “I seem to have seen it there…”

“This stone pillar is where we sat half an hour ago!”

Huo Xiaoliang was slightly startled and his eyes widened.

“Ah Xuan, what you mean is that we are back to square one.”

Lin Xuan nodded, looked at Ke Jiu and asked, “Miss Nan, this should be caused by the abnormality of the fog. What do you think?”

“Maybe the fog made us lose our way, and we walked around in a circle without realizing it and ended up back at the starting point.”

“Really?” Lin Xuan looked hesitant, but still looked at Ke Jiu and nodded slowly, “Then let’s go in another direction…”

After Lin Xuan took a few steps, suddenly a slender and soft little hand held his palm, and Huo Xiaoliang’s slightly dissatisfied voice came into his ears.

“Ah Xuan, did you find something?”

Huo Xiaoliang leaned over and spoke almost into his ear, his warm breath hitting it.

“Xiaoliang, what are you…doing all of a sudden?” Lin Xuan was disturbed by her actions and subconsciously pressed her shoulders.

“Nan…Miss Nan, I suddenly have something private to tell Axuan, can you… move aside for a moment?” As she spoke, a blush quietly appeared on her face.

Ke Jiuyu raised her eyebrows slowly. To her sensitive six senses, this layer of white mist was just like air.

She could easily see their intimate movements like a couple.

Ke Jiu didn’t care and wasn’t curious about what their private affairs were.

“If Master Lin and Miss Xiaoliang have something private to discuss, I will step aside for a while.”

“Miss Nan, it will only take half a minute…” Ke Jiu nodded, took a few steps back, and his body gradually disappeared in the white mist.

Seeing that Ke Jiu had left temporarily, Lin Xuan looked at Huo Xiaoliang and gradually frowned.

“Xiaoliang, is there something you don’t want Miss Nan to know?”

Huo Xiaoliang said dissatisfiedly: “Ah Xuan, you are the one… I have already discovered it. Didn’t you discover something just now? But you didn’t dare to say it when you looked at her. What are you worried about?”

Lin Xuan was slightly stunned, and the changes in his expression were all under Huo Xiaoliang’s attention.

“It’s not a big deal, but Miss Nan is too calm and indifferent, as if everything that happens is within her expectations.” He stared at Huo Xiaoliang and said softly, “She doesn’t look like a contestant aiming for the sect entrance examination. Instead, she looks like…”

……

……

Ke Jiu, who had just left Lin and Huo to avoid suspicion, did not stay in the nearby area.

Instead, he walked leisurely for a few dozen meters and stopped at a rock climbing site.

She turned her gaze past the layers of white mist and said calmly, “You’ve been following me for so long, do you have any advice for me?”

The sound spread far away, but the surrounding white mist was calm and no one responded to her.

Upon seeing this, Ke Jiu pulled out a wooden sword made of black wood from his Qiankun bag.

“I have already spotted you. I have three breaths of time left. If you don’t come out, I will take action. Please show yourself.”

From the beginning, Ke Jiu had already discovered that someone’s spiritual consciousness had scanned her several times. Lin Xuan and Huo Xiaoliang’s cultivation was not high, and they could not perceive the mental power at the spiritual consciousness level.

But after Ke Jiu’s rebirth, she retained some of her spiritual consciousness in the Return to Void Realm. Therefore, even among the top cultivators in this world, few can use their spiritual consciousness to detect her without being detected.

“If I take action, it won’t be so easy.”

Just as she finished her words, two red rays of light suddenly shot out from the mist, and the sharp edges pointed directly at her throat.
