Tuoba Han saw that Feng Yu Hang was so worked up that he pulled on his hand, saying, “Hang, calm down. You’re hurting him.”

Feng Yu Hang released Sima You Yue’s hand, saying, “Sorry, I was too excited.”

Sima You Yue massaged the part of her wrist that had been pinched red, and said with furrowed eyebrows, “You recognise this jade pendant?”

Feng Yu Hang took a deep breath, then turned to Tuoba Han and said, “Han, I’ll have to trouble you to step outside.”

Tuoba Han saw Feng Yu Hang’s solemn expression, then stood up and said, “I’ll wait for you outside, then.”

He left after saying this.

Feng Yu Hang looked at the jade pendant and said, “Where did you get this jade pendant?”

“You recognise this jade pendant.” Sima You Yue guessed from his expression.

“This jade pendant belongs to my Feng clan. Where did you get it?”

Sima You Yue saw how anxious he was, and that his eyes held a trace of worry as well, so she told him, “Someone gave it to me.”

“Who? Where is he now?” Feng Yu Hang burst out with questions.

“Tell me first about the origins of this jade pendant. I want to see if it is like you say.” Sima You Yue said.

“Only the son of the first wife of the Feng clan possesses this jade pendant. Furthermore, each jade pendant corresponds to that person’s unique identity. My clansmen would not just give their jade pendant away casually. Now tell me, how did you get this jade pendant?”

“Do you know Feng Zhi Xing?” Sima You Yue asked.

“How do you know my uncle’s name?” Did you get this jade pendant from him? Do you know where my uncle is now? Where is he?” Feng Yu Hang asked one question after another.

Sima You Yue heard his questions, and suddenly a bad feeling rose in her heart, “Didn’t he say that he was going back to his clan? Did he not return?”

“Uncle is back? No he isn’t, he’s been missing for a few years, now.” Feng Yu Hang said. He flipped the jade pendant over and saw a tiny word written across the back. His face lit up with joy and worry. “This is truly my uncle’s jade pendant. Where did you bump into my uncle? Do you know where he is right now?”

Sima You Yue saw that Feng Yu Hang didn’t look like he was faking, so she said, “I don’t know where he is right now. He told me that there were some issues he had to settle between the Sage Pavilion and had to leave. He left this jade pendant behind and said that, in the future when I came to the ancient primordial lands, I could show this pendant to any of the marked shops. After that, he left.”

Feng Yu Hang looked directly at Sima You Yue, “How can I trust you?”

Sima You Yue smiled and replied, “And how can I trust you?”

Feng Yu Hang took out a jade pendant. It looked similar to Feng Zhi Xing’s one, but there were some tiny differences on one side of it.

“Only the son of the first wife of the Feng clan has that.” Feng Yu Hang placed both jade pendants together and said, “This is enough to prove the relationship I have with my uncle. Now you. If you cannot prove your relationship with my uncle, that means you are one of the trails that lead to my uncle.”

Sima You Yue looked at those two similar pieces of jade pendants, and said, “I can trust you for now.”

After speaking, she released Feng Zhi Xing’s aura. It was the soul imprint that he had left with her at that time.

“Uncle’s aura!” Feng Yu Hang cried out excitedly. Then, as if he thought of something, he looked at her suspiciously, “A soul imprint. Why do you have his soul imprint! What kind of relationship do you have with my uncle that he would actually leave a bit of his soul imprint behind to protect you?”

“He is my Master.” Sima You Yue said, “Since my master is your uncle, that must mean you know of his situation. How long has he been missing?”

“My uncle is different from us. He didn’t grow up in the inner regions. I only met him a few times when I was young.” Feng Yu Hang said, “The previous time when our clan was in trouble, our clan sent him a letter in hopes to invite him back. However, he never came back. We found out later on that when he had gotten our news, he was delayed by something and never managed to rush back. However, when we tried to get in touch with him later on, we couldn’t anymore. That’s why we said that he’s missing. However, it seems like we’re always on the wrong track.”

“What track?”

“We always thought that our uncle went missing when he came out from the inner regions. That’s why we’ve been checking out the inner regions. However, based on what you just said, he didn’t go missing in the inner regions, but in…”

“The Yi Lin continent.” Sima You Yue said.

“He was missing ever since he came out of the Yi Lin continent.” Feng Yu Hang said, “If that is true, we have to change our search direction. It’s no wonder we couldn’t get any news although we searched for over a year. This cannot do, I have to rush back to inform my clan of this matter. I will bother you again next time, goodbye.”

“Sigh, wait.” Sima You Yue saw that he was really about to leave, and immediately pulled on his arm.”

“What?”

“Return my master’s jade pendant to me.” Sima You Yue pointed at the jade pendant in his hand.

Feng Yu Hang hesitated for a moment, but he still returned the jade pendant to Sima You Yue, “I hope that you will be able to guard Uncle’s jade pendant properly.”

After speaking, he opened the door and left.

Sima You Yue sat down on the chair and looked at the jade pendant in her hand. Her heart began to grow anxious.

Master was missing? He should have gone missing when he returned here. Then where had he been all these years?”

However, one thing that allowed her to relax was, no matter where he was, at least he was alive. If he was dead, the soul imprint he left with her would also disappear.

Her right hand rested on her forehead as she said, “Master, where are you? I will definitely find you!”

Tuoba Han walked in and saw how Sima You Yue was a little out of it and said, “You Yue, what did you say to Hang? He actually ran off in such a hurry?”

“We talked a bit about the Feng clan’s situation.” Sima You Yue kept the jade pendant away, saying, “Let’s head to my older brother’s bedroom and let’s start your acupuncture.”

“Alright.” Tuoba Han saw that Sima You Yue was not willing to talk much more about it, so he didn’t ask anything and followed her instead to one of the rooms.

After an hour passed, Sima You Yue had finished his acupuncture. He had just worn his clothes when Tuoba Yan Er dashed in, in a panic, saying, “Han, what’s wrong with Big Bro Feng? He looked for Wu Hen and ran off while pulling him. He didn’t even answer any of my questions”.

Tuoba Han glanced at Sima You Yue, saying, “Don’t worry, it should be that something has come up with his clan.”

“It’s good if there’s no need to worry.” Tuoba Yan Er said.

“Alright, let’s head back as well.” Tuoba Han siad.

Tuoba Yan Er looked at Tuoba Han, then looked at Sima You Yue. Although she was rather curious as to why they were together for such a long time, since the two of them didn’t want to tell her, she’d better not ask. She would wait till they went back home before slowly prying it out of him.

After Tuoba Yan Er and Tuoba Han left, Sima You Yue went to look for Bei Gong Tang and the others. At that time, Feng Zhi Xing was their teacher as well. Now that he had gone missing, she wanted to let them know too.

“You Yue, You Yue, follow me quickly!” Feng Yu Hen suddenly dashed into her house and pulled Sima You Yue before running outside.
