Chapter 508: Evacuation

Brightheart Island.

Ji Ning and the others landed onto the ground. Upon seeing him appear, the servants and maids of Brightheart Island all called out in respectful unison, "Young master."

"Ji Ning, you've returned." A frantic-looking, black-robed Ji Truekeep came walking over.

"Uncle Truekeep." Ning smiled. "What has you looking so worried?"

"How can I not be worried? If it weren't for the fact that I knew you were undergoing your tribulation, I would've gone looking for you long ago. Thank goodness…thank goodness you are back!" As Truekeep spoke, an armored soldier began to walk towards them from not too far away. Ning immediately recognized this man as a captain of the Imperial Guard of the imperial capital, a Loose Immortal soldier.

Truekeep immediately said, "This general came all the way here from the imperial capital on the Xia Emperor's orders. He's been waiting here for you for two months."

"Two months?" Ning was startled.
