Chapter 398: And so it begins...

"The Palace Master sent a Formation?"

Wu Long raised his eyebrows as he looked at Ye Ling.

"Mm, she asked about the dimensions and layout of the mansion before, so I assumed that was the case but it seems I really was right. She has sent the formation with the others who just departed"

She confirmed with a nod and a smile at his reaction, as he was truly surprised.

'Huh, and I expected a fit from her saying that I threw everything to her. I guess I really was a bit too mean this time.

I need to properly thank her when I come by the sect before the Winter Forest Hunt"

He thought, feeling a little guilty from this unexpectedly big-hearted response to his actions. Though he did have a nagging feeling that something was off and this was not a natural reaction from Lian Zhiqiu. This unforeseen thoughtfulness and consideration sparked a suspicion that she may want him to feel guilty by acting magnanimously.
