"By the way, how are the arrangements? Are we heading straight for Fire Flame Mountain?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Yes, it's all arranged. We can go straight there!" Yu Yi said. "I hope Young Hero Lin will accompany us the whole way. Otherwise I really would worry that Miss Yu Shu might be reluctant somewhere along the journey."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely go. Not only because of Xiao Shu, but also because I promised a friend I'd help heal someone." Wei Zhao meant Yang Shuizhen, Huo Shaoyun's playmate.
"That's good then," Yu Yi said with a breath of relief.
Very soon, Shen Yushu had finished packing and came downstairs with a backpack over her shoulder.
"That's all you're bringing?" Wei Zhao looked at Shen Yushu's backpack, somewhat surprised. It seemed far too little.
"There's nothing else worth taking, really. Just a laptop with photos and videos of me, Sister Yaoyao, and Brother Arrow Brand stored inside. When Xiao Shu gets lonely, she can look at them. As for other daily necessities, they're surely all available over there," Shen Yushu said.
Wei Zhao nodded silently. Shen Yushu was right—what didn't Fire Flame Mountain have? Besides, the Young Sect Master Huo Shaoyun was Wei Zhao's underling; if Shen Yushu went there, she would surely be treated like an honored guest.
"By the way, where are Xinyan and Pangolin?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Sister Xinyan has gone to school! Pangolin is lying in his room resting! Yu Dake went to Songshan City to see Yu Xiaoke," Shen Yushu said.
"Oh, no wonder I didn't see them." Wei Zhao understood now. In the blink of an eye, the school term had begun.
Wei Zhao took out his phone, intending to call Bai Weituo to tell him he couldn't go to school for the time being, and to ask him to keep an eye on Wang Xinyan, so that if anything happened to her, he would be the first to know.
Although Wei Zhao had left Wang Xinyan a large number of energy stones, he still feared something might go wrong.
He dialed Bai Weituo's number, but the response was that the phone was switched off, which startled Wei Zhao slightly. It wasn't evening but broad daylight—why would Bai Weituo have his phone off? Could he be in class?
But even during class, Bai Weituo would normally set his phone to vibrate.
At that thought, Wei Zhao sent Wang Xinyan a message: "Xinyan, I'm back. I'm about to take Xiao Shu to Fire Flame Mountain. When you see Bai Weituo, tell him to give me a call!"
Before long, Wang Xinyan's text came back: "I'm in class at school. Hasn't Bai Weituo gone abroad traveling? He's not back yet!"
"Not back yet?" Wei Zhao stared at the message for a moment. The term had already started and he still wasn't back—he really knew how to enjoy himself! But Wei Zhao didn't think much of it. Given Bai Weituo's exam results last semester, he was entitled to take leave—that was the privilege of the elite class. Just like Wei Zhao himself, students who ranked at the top of the final exams could enjoy the right to take leave at will.
"All right then, we're about to set off. Are you coming back?" Wei Zhao asked.
"No, I still have classes here. Safe travels to you both." Since she had seen Wei Zhao not long ago, Wang Xinyan didn't come back—nor was there any need to.
Putting away his phone, Wei Zhao nodded to Yu Yi and said, "Let's go. Shall we set off now? Did you drive here?"
"Uh, no." Yu Yi looked a little embarrassed. He was a cultivator; he rarely drove when going about, usually traveling on foot, preserving the old martial arts style.
"Then I'll drive." Wei Zhao said no more. The three of them left the courtyard together and got into the Grand Cherokee. Fire Flame Mountain lay deep in the Hakunamata Desert, so Wei Zhao had a general sense of the direction.
"Sorry to trouble you, Young Hero Lin!" Yu Yi nodded and conscientiously sat in the back, leaving the passenger seat to Shen Yushu.
