"You should probably slow down." Mo Li said. Hearing this, Fang Yu paused and looked at the man in black.

"Are you hiding something from me?" She asked.

Mo Li shook his head, he stayed quiet for a few seconds before saying, "I will tell the Sect Master that we will be late. Let's go back to my cave. It's nearer than yours."

Fang Yu hesitated for a few seconds before she nodded and followed the man inside his ice cave. "What's wrong?"

"When you disappeared two hundred years ago, the Sect Master went out of his seclusion to find you. He knew that someone had turned traitor and by the time he figured out the identity of the person it was already too late. That woman… your cousin Fang Ling'er had already left the Sect and joined another sect."

Fang Yu nodded. She already knew this information.

Mo Li continued. "Well… when I found the Sect Master, he had grave injuries around him. He gave me his token before he passed out. Because of this, I was able to safely bring him back."

"You saved him too." This explains why the Sect Master treated this man very well.

"As a passerby, that's what I should do." He said. "The Sect Master told me that the one who attacked him was the Sect Master of Frozen Wraith Sect. You should also know that the man who wanted you to become his main wife is the nephew of that Sect Master."

"And?" Fang Yu knew that the Sect Master of Eight Palms and Frozen Wraith never had a good relationship and were only full of false pretenses in front of many people.

"Well… your cousin joined Frozen Wraith to become that man's concubine."

Fang Yu raised an eyebrow. "That does not concern me Elder Mo."

"She is here to see you."

"Oh! Then… Let's have some tea first. Let her wait."

"…" Elder Mo was speechless. Was this really the cold goddess that everyone knew? According to the rumors, this Fang Yu was pure and cold. She was also righteous and always stayed true to her principles.

"Before you think about anything else. You should remember that rumors are rumors for a reason." She unceremoniously sat on the seat made of ice and motioned him to get some tea first. "I will wait here."

Seeing this, the elder in front of her shook his head and immediately prepared some tea for his guest. His actions were swift and elegant. It didn't take too long for him to finish brewing. "The news about your return has reached the ears of the other sect. People are sending gifts to the sect almost everyday." He uttered. Fang Yu was a well known potions master. Her potioneering skills had even surpassed her own master. Because of this, when the other Sect knew that she didn't return two hundred years ago, they were extremely happy. To the Sect Master of the Eight Palm's Sect, losing his favorite disciple was akin to losing an arm.

Now that Fang Yu is back, those people immediately turned gloomy. However, they still showed a fake facade of happiness and even sent some gifts to show how happy they were that she had returned safely.

Fang Yu only nodded. She took the tea cup to her mouth and immediately smiled at the sweet tasting tea. She was very familiar with this tea as this was the same tea that the Sect Master and Fang Yu would always drink together.

Fang Yu languidly drank her tea as she asked about some rumors surrounding the Sect lately. She had been away for too long and the moment she came back, she immediately made a lot of potions for her dear disciple. Fang Yu didn't have the time to inquire about other unimportant things.

Of course, Mo Li complied and started talking about the upcoming Four Sect Assembly in the next year as well as the struggle of each sect to make the other Sect less powerful by secretly poaching talents from smaller sects.

"When you disappeared, everyone thought that the number one genius in potion making was already Fang Ling'er. Thus, her leaving the sect was a great matter. However, the Sect Master didn't seem to take this to heart and was absolutely sure that you would come back."

"Did you tell him that you saved me?" Fang Yu asked. This was the first time that she and Mo Li had a decent conversation about what happened in the cave.

"Naturally, no." His lips thinned. He was originally here because he wanted to find out something about this woman. Why would he tell the sect master the reason why he was here? "Moreover, he had seen this woman's body while cleaning her wounds. If the Sect Master knew this, that man would surely pester him to marry his little disciple.

Fang Yu nodded and didn't say anything. To be honest, as the master of the villain, this man should be considered her enemy. However, her mission this time was to prevent the Reincarnator from killing the Villain. So she decided to become friendly instead and help him protect his disciple.

Fang Yu was certain that this would be beneficial to her in the future. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Why did you want to offend me the first time we met?" He asked.

"I didn't."

"And why are you acting friendly now?"

"Should I challenge you to a duel this time?" she countered. "I have been brewing potions for a month now. I am really tired. I have no energy to offend you."

He stared at her with a face full of confusion. However, no matter how peculiar this woman was, this one still saved him when those people attacked him. Just the thought of those people made the temperature inside the room lower. Fang Yu shivered in response.

"I am done. That should be enough time." Fang Yu glanced at Elder Mo's empty tea cup.

"Hmmm." Elder Mo nodded and led her out of the cave. It didn't take too long for the two to arrive in the hall. When Fang Yu took a step inside the hall, a sickly sweet smell immediately darted towards her. She made a weird expression. What the hell was that smell? She wanted to puke.
