The cave had been completely silent, with Ji Ning and the other three retainers completely absorbed in the profound mysteries of the Dao contained within the scars on the wall. Su Youji's sudden shout startled all four of them, and they turned to look at her as she ran towards Ning, her face filled with excitement.
"What is it, Youji?" Ning rose to his feet and began to walk towards her.
"The white-robed Hegemon was absolutely incredible. He's just… just…" Su Youji was so excited she could barely speak properly. "Master, you have to test it out for yourself."
"Of course he was incredible. He was a Hegemon!" Ning looked at her. "When I moved towards him, I could sense the field of illusions surrounding him. That's why I told you to go to him and meditate there."
"That's not it!" Su Youji repeatedly shook her head. "Master, you probably didn't move too close to the Hegemon's body, right?"
