But after walking for the time it took a stick of incense to burn, Yue Mingxuan suddenly stopped. His face darkened slightly as he quickly hid behind a nearby tree.
Not far ahead, he saw two shadows moving in the moonlight. Could they be palace guards on patrol?
But that didn't make sense, on his way here, aside from that man in white, he hadn't met a single person.
While ressing himself against the tree trunk, he peeked out carefully.
A figure who is dressed completely in a black robe was standing behind the white robed man from before.
The man in black then spoke in a deep, low voice, barely audible. "Master Fu sends a message."
"What is it?" the white robed man asked.
"This time, the world's greatest healer, Gongsun Xing, is coming as well."
"I see," the man replied lightly while waving his hand. "You may go."
The black robed figure the disappeared into the shadows.
The white robed man took a few steps forward and then he suddenly stopped.
