章 216: Business

In the end, Wei Lingmiao never got to see Shangguan Ru. All that was left was an image he had of an 11-year-old maiden, and it was refined by the descriptions of her beauty from other people. Master Wei considered it a great pity, and even traveling together with 50 pretty women could not make up for that.

Compared to Master Wei, Gu Shenwei was much luckier, since he would soon get a chance to meet his old friend, the giant red-crowned roc, again.

After traveling for two days, Wei Lingmiao and his entourage came to a place, which was said to be the haunt of the Demon Bird. This legendary bird intrigued Master Wei and a few other young masters, who came to accompany Wei Lingmiao on the trip. They ordered the whole team to camp by the roadside at evening and waited until it was pitch dark, hoping to catch a glimpse of the bird. To their disappointment, the bird did not appear at all.
