Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 820 World 368

The lid was shattered, but the box was intact.

They all looked like they were made of the same material, yet there was such a big difference, which made Shen Ruyin somewhat suspicious.

As she approached, she found the box to be empty, with only a few cracks in the inner layer.

Shen Ruyin tapped it carefully.

This sound doesn't quite sound right either.

She used a clever trick to pry open the wooden planks of the box, and only then did she discover the secret inside.

The reason why the inner layer of the box is cracked while the outer layer is undamaged lies in what's inside its interlayer.

This is a disciple's robe from the Supreme Sect that has been stored for quite some time. Judging from the patterns on it, it belongs to an inner disciple of the Fu Peak Sect.

The inner disciples of the Supreme Sect's main peak generally wear clothes with some additional functions. This is especially true for the Talisman Peak disciples, who are experts in talismans. Embroidering various talismans on their clothes to achieve the effect of magic robes is a required course for them.

The materials used in this box can only be described as sturdy; for a demon, they are quite ordinary.

Like a rat, it peeled off the talisman on top and smashed the top of the box to pieces.

So, after the rat slowly healed its wounds over the past hundred years and recovered, it still couldn't get out of the box. Besides the power of the talisman, the robes of the Supreme Sect disciples, which were embroidered with talismans, also played a significant role.

Shen Ruyin sighed, put away her disciple's robe, and then found a jade slip and a ring-shaped Sumeru Mustard Seed at the very bottom of the interlayer.

Shen Ruyin first looked at the jade slip and learned about the disciple's identity and the more detailed background.

As for the Sumeru Mustard Seed, she glanced at it briefly and then put it there.

She doesn't need anything from inside, so it's best to take it back as is and ask Peak Master Fu to handle it.

After Xingluo finished reading, she asked, "Xingluo, should we go back?"

Shen Ruyin sighed: "Yes, we have to send these things back first."

"This senior sister is from the Supreme Sect, so we can't rest here."

"Boom!"

Several thunder-like sounds rang out outside, but the weather was fine and there were no dark clouds. The reason for the sounds was the large rock that the wicked man had rolled down.

Shen Ruyin knew these people didn't have long to live, so she didn't interfere and turned to open the secret passage.

The passage hadn't been used for a long time, and some parts showed signs of loosening, but it wasn't dangerous for Shen Ruyin, so she walked out directly.

After concealing the exit, Shen Ruyin flew directly towards the Supreme Sect on her sword.

Her timing for returning was unfortunate; Shen Ruwan was in seclusion, and Sect Leader Qian had gone to Po Nian Peak. Fortunately, Fu He was left behind, otherwise she would have had to change her route.

When Fuhe saw Shen Ruyin, he thought he had been in office for too long and was seeing things.

He rubbed his eyes to confirm that it was indeed Shen Ruyin who had returned, and immediately stood up: "Junior Sister Xingluo, why are you back so soon? Did you encounter something difficult?"

"There is a reason," Shen Ruyin explained the situation to Fuhe, and then gave him the disciple's robe she had found, along with the jade slip and the Sumeru Mustard Seed.

Upon hearing the name she mentioned, Fuhe suddenly realized, "So she really is..."

Fu He stopped speaking, but Shen Ruyin already understood. It seemed that this senior sister was also an old acquaintance of Fu He.

Fuhe sighed and said to her, "I plan to go to Fufeng. If you're not in a hurry to go back, why don't you come with me?"

Although Shen Ruyin didn't know much, she was the person involved, and if Peak Master Fu asked, she would indeed be better able to answer than Fu He, so she agreed.

Before going to Fu Peak, Shen Ruyin sent a message to Po Nian Peak, just in case her ancestor and master were surprised to find her there.

Fu He brought Shen Ruyin to see him, and Peak Master Fu was still somewhat puzzled: "Nephew Xingluo? Didn't you go out of the sect to train?"

Shen Ruyin glanced at Fu He and asked whether he should speak first or she should speak herself.

Without Shen Ruyin needing to speak, Fuhe recounted the events in a clear and organized manner, and handed over the things Shen Ruyin had given him to Peak Master Fu exactly as they were.

Upon hearing this, Peak Master Fu felt a pang of regret: "I knew something was wrong when that girl's spirit tablet shattered many years ago, but I never knew the specifics."

"Now... I thank my junior brother Xingluo."

As he spoke, Peak Master Fu specially sent someone to deliver a message to the master that senior sister had been betrothed to, who was also an elder of Peak Fu, asking him to come over.

After Elder Fu Feng arrived, he first thanked Shen Ruyin before reading the letter left by his disciple.

But she looked at it differently; she first drew a talisman on it before she started looking at it.

Shen Ruyin saw this and exchanged a glance with Fu He. It seemed that this senior sister had left two letters.

After the elder finished reading, his expression became very serious. He then turned and handed the jade slip to Peak Master Fu: "Peak Master, I'm afraid you'll have to take another look."

Peak Master Fu also sensed something was wrong. He picked up the jade slip, read it again, and then slammed his hand on the table in front of him in a fit of rage, breaking the table in two.

"Fine, fine, fine," Peak Master Fu trembled with anger, but he didn't say much when he saw Shen Ruyin and Fu He looking somewhat bewildered. He only asked, "Is Sect Master Qian on the main peak?"

Fuhe immediately replied, "When my junior sister Xingluo and I arrived, Master had already gone to Po Nian Peak."

"Very well, we will need Junior Brother Chenling's help in this matter." After saying that, Peak Master Fu couldn't wait to use the transmission talisman to invite Sect Master Qian and Chenling. He immediately got up and headed to Po Nian Peak.

Shen Ruyin and Fu He naturally followed.

As a good disciple of his master, how could Fu He not go and tell his master about the situation at this time?

As for Shen Ruyin, needless to say, as the direct disciple of Po Nian Peak, no one had as good a reason to go as she did.

Ignoring the two of them, Master Fu rushed to Chen Ling's courtyard.

As soon as Shen Ruyin and the other person landed, they heard Peak Master Fu rushing inside, saying, "Sect Master, I have something important to say. Demon... what are you doing here?"

Shen Ruyin peeked through the open door and knew that Peak Master Fu was referring to Lan Yue.

She quietly asked Fuhe, "Senior Brother Fuhe, how long do you plan to keep the Ancestor's identity a secret?"

Fuhe felt somewhat at a loss for words: "Junior sister, you are often with the Ancestor and listen to her teachings. If you don't know these things, how could I know them?"

Shen Ruyin's eyes darted left and right, but never landed on Fu He's face: "I just went out of the sect to train, what if the ancestor changed his mind in just a couple of days, but I didn't know?"

Fuhe didn't answer, his face clearly saying, "Don't you want to look at what you just said?"

Shen Ruyin felt no guilt whatsoever.

That's true, there are always variables. Two days may be short, but there's a lot you can do.

Like now, she only went out for two days and brought back a message to her sect.

Moreover, judging from Master Fu's current behavior, this should be a very big piece of news.
