Chapter 303: Did We Miss the Ceremony?

Wen Shiyin went visibly stiff. Over Xie Lun's shoulders, I saw her staring blankly at me as if looking for an explanation to what just happened, but I could only return that stare with equal puzzlement. This certainly didn't seem like Xie Lun at all … What was going on?

Visions were some of the most typical, usually involving scenes of danger threatening those who were close to the cultivator. The effect of those visions was similar to the sword spirit's memories, since they felt real enough to obscure the line between illusions and reality. Did Xie Lun see a vision of Wen Shiyin getting hurt on this errand? Or worse … not coming back at all?
