Eastern Province.
On the way to Wu Dao Sect through Misty Mountain.
The young girl Zisu walked here.
She was no longer flying through the air.

Instead, she walked slowly on this path.
Each step touched the ground, without taking flight.
But the dirt on the road naturally avoided her, not daring to taint Zisu, which was quite peculiar as if Zisu were pure and flawless.
"Is this… this the Sect of my Respected Master? Is Respected Master above?"
Zisu murmured softly to herself.
Her impeccably clean purple eyes were fixed on the Sect entrance, as if pondering something.
After a moment, she took off again towards the Sect gate.
Zisu’s journey was unhindered.
She soon arrived at Wu Dao Sect.
Once inside the Wu Dao Sect, she kept looking around, seemingly very curious about everything she saw.
Woohoo!!!
It wasn’t long before Zisu heard a bizarre roar.
In the distance, a Canglong was flying all around the firmament of Wu Dao Sect, emitting peculiar roaring sounds from its mouth.
"What kind of creature is this? It looks so majestic, why does it make such strange and lewd sounds? This surely isn’t Respected Master."
Zisu looked indifferently at the soaring dragon, taking note in her heart.
The appearance and the sound of a creature like this.
"Who goes there?!"
The Canglong dragon ’Ao Yu,’ who was flying freely in the sky, naturally noticed Zisu.
In a swift movement, he changed into human form and appeared before Zisu.
He watched her warily.
This person had breezed into their Wu Dao Sect without a trace…
Ao Yu vaguely remembered that there were formations both inside and outside the Sect.
Apart from the foggy mirage formation around Misty Mountain, which obscures vision, the rest of the formations throughout the Sect were laid out by none other than the eminent Yin Yang Formation Saint Zhang Han from the outside world.
This person in front of him had ignored all the formations and just walked in without anyone noticing…
Was it that his Elder Zhang’s formations were too weak?
Or was this person in front of him too powerful?
Ao Yu fell into deep thought.
"I am here to find my Respected Master."
Without making a move, Zisu thought for a moment, then said so.
"You’re looking for your Respected Master? Your Respected Master couldn’t be… the Sect Master, could they?"
Ao Yu paused for a second.
Arriving at the Wu Dao Sect and claiming to look for a Respected Master?
Within Wu Dao Sect, the only one daring to claim the title ’Respected Master’ would be the Sect Master.
Could it be…
This girl was a disciple taken by the Sect Master from outside?
"I’m not sure. The people over on that mountain said my Respected Master made me, so I came looking for my Respected Master."
Zisu pointed plainly toward Xiangdao Mountain and spoke.
"Then there’s probably no mistake, your Respected Master is the Sect Master. However, the Sect Master is not currently here, having gone out. Would you like to stay in the Sect for now? You could also meet some of your fellow disciples."
Ao Yu urged repeatedly.
"I have fellow disciples?"
Zisu was quite surprised.
The Four Great Beasts and Baize had only told her about her Respected Master.
They had not mentioned anything about fellow disciples.
So Zisu was hearing about them for the first time and was quite curious.
"Indeed, if your Respected Master truly is the Sect Master, then you have nine senior and junior disciples. Currently in the Sect, your Seventh Sister, Eighth Brother, and Ninth Sister are present. If you wish, you can pay them a visit."
Ao Yu said so.
He reconsidered his own position as well.
Nowadays, he was no longer a mere mount.
He was the Guardian Beast of the Sect.
And as a Guardian Beast, he had his duties.
Such as...
Introducing the Sect to new disciples?
Why did Ao Yu feel that his position would eventually be shaken...
Was this just his misperception?
"Then… then please lead me to meet my senior and junior fellow disciples," Zisu said after a pause and in a soft voice.
"Certainly, my Lord. Please follow me," Ao Yu said repeatedly.
"My Lord? Why do you address me as ’my Lord’?"
Zisu looked at Ao Yu, utterly bewildered.
"Because, you are the Sect Master’s disciple, and I am the Guardian Beast of our Wayless Sect, remember, the Guardian Beast, so naturally I address you respectfully as an adult,"
Ao Yu answered with a cheerful smile.
As he spoke, he headed towards the area where the disciples lived.
"Guardian Beast? What does a Guardian Beast do?"
Zisu asked again.
"Guardian Beast… a Guardian Beast is just a Guardian Beast."
"Oh…"
"By the way, adult, as you’re the Sect Master’s disciple, I’ve yet to ask for your name."
"I don’t have a name; I was transformed from a Zisu plant. You can just call me Zisu."
"Oh, so you’re a transformed Zisu, hmm? Wait, Zisu? What is a Zisu?"
Ao Yu walked within the Wayless Sect with Zisu.
The two chatted as they walked along.
During the conversation about her transformation.
Ao Yu suddenly paused.
Transformed from a Zisu?
What exactly is a Zisu?
Ao Yu subconsciously thought about plants.
Demons transformed from plants are inherently weak, with very few such beings reigning supreme.
The name Zisu sounds like a plant’s name?
Could it be that the Sect Master has taken a plant-transformed demon as a disciple? Isn’t he afraid of wasting his efforts?
It should…
It should not be the case.
This Zisu must be the name of some legendary treasure, probably.
"Excuse me, adult, what kind of legendary treasure is your Zisu plant?"
Ao Yu asked cautiously.
"Zisu? This is what Zisu is."
The girl Zisu had no idea what Ao Yu was trying to ask.
She raised her hand.
The shape of a Zisu plant was condensed into form.
"This… what is this?"
Ao Yu still couldn’t recognize what the Zisu plant was, instead it seemed to him like a vegetable.
"This is Zisu, a common vegetable eaten by ordinary people,"
Zisu said earnestly.
Upon hearing this.
Ao Yu was momentarily dumbfounded.
So she really is a transformed vegetable?
Among plant-transformed demons, vegetables are considered low-grade.
The talent of a transformed vegetable must be comparably low.
Did the Sect Master truly recruit a vegetable to be a disciple?
Ao Yu found it unimaginable.
Could it be that a vegetable could grow to match the likes of Ye Luo Zhang Han in the future?
If that were true.
The concept of demon plant transformation would become a mere formality.
"What’s wrong?"
Zisu asked indifferently.
"Nothing, nothing at all, adult, please follow me,"
Ao Yu shook his head, pushing aside the multitude of thoughts and concentrated on leading the way.
He shouldn’t think too much.
When the Sect Master does things, why should he interfere?
He didn’t dare to suggest how the Sect Master should act.
They soon arrived at the area where the disciples lived.
Ao Yu led Zisu to the front of Sile’s Sleeping Palace, as if to familiarize Zisu with the place.
Standing in front of Sile’s Sleeping Palace.
Ao Yu looked up at it.
"Adult, this is the residence of your Ninth Sister. There is also your Seventh Sister and Eighth Brother in the sect, but they are all in the Discipline Hall right now. I’ll take you there later,"
Ao Yu turned and said to Zisu.
"Oh, okay."
Zisu nodded slightly.
She too was examining the palace in front of her.
The palace doors were rather splendid, with two unknown musical instruments placed on either side of the grand hall.
Above the hall, a plaque was mounted.
The plaque bore an inscription.
’Grow quietly, then dazzle everyone.’
