Chapter 3023: Chapter 1242: Lingling’s Worries

Ming Yu and Lingling exchanged a look at Wenyan’s words, completely unable to understand what their Master was talking about. They had no idea what had happened to make Mo Wei say such a thing, and what kind of thing it could be that would harm Jiuli and the child!

"Master, what do you mean? What exactly is the thing that could hurt Jiuli and the child?" Lingling asked in confusion.

"You don’t understand. We’ll talk after Dabai comes back! If you two have nothing else to do, you can also go search inside the hall. Lingling has followed Jiuli for a long time, so go look and see if there’s anything that feels familiar..." Mo Wei said, looking at Lingling.

"All right, Master, then we’ll go!" Ming Yu had wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Lingling, who spoke.

Then Ming Yu and Lingling turned and left, going straight upstairs. Ming Yu looked at Lingling and asked, "Lingling, why wouldn’t you let me ask clearly?" ℴ

"Don’t you feel that something’s off with Master? If Master doesn’t want to talk, asking won’t help. Anyway, once Dabai comes back, Master will explain, so what’s there to fear in waiting a bit longer? Besides, before, we could sense everything about Master, but toward the end there was a period of time when our connection with Master seemed to be cut off. What exactly happened during that stretch of time—I think we should be finding out the reason for that instead!" Lingling glanced downstairs at Mo Wei, whose emotions were off, then said to Ming Yu.

Precisely because she had followed Mo Jiuli for so long, Lingling’s way of thinking about problems had also changed a lot. Ming Yu, hearing this, felt it made perfect sense. He looked over at their Master in the courtyard, thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "All right, I’ll listen to you. Let’s go. Master regained his strength in that secret chamber—if there’s anything wrong, it has to be inside that secret chamber!"

"Mm, that’s what I think too. Let’s go take a look..." Lingling said.

So Ming Yu and Lingling arrived at the secret chamber where Mo Wei had restored his strength. The Soul Tokens and the Brocade Box were both gone; only that hidden compartment remained, along with the secret chamber itself, empty in all directions. Ming Yu and Lingling searched as if for a long time, but found nothing.

The secret chamber itself was very small; it was a place Di Tianqin and Nalan Xi had specially arranged for Mo Wei to restore his memories and strength. Apart from a hidden compartment in the wall, the entire secret chamber only had enough Space for Five people to lie down, with no furnishings at all...

"There’s nothing here. Looks like there’s nothing strange about this place!" Ming Yu said to Lingling.

"Yeah, it really doesn’t seem like anything’s wrong. But why, then? Why did Master and us lose contact during that time? Could it really be that nothing happened? Are we just overthinking it?" Lingling said, deeply puzzled.

"Maybe we really are overthinking. Come on, let’s go back down!" Ming Yu said at Wenyan’s words.

"No, I’m going to look some more!" Lingling couldn’t help saying. She didn’t want anything to happen to Master, and she knew very clearly that Master was so anxious because he felt something might endanger Jiuli. That only made Lingling even more worried.

Ming Yu understood Lingling’s thoughts, so he didn’t stop her and continued searching together with her.

Just like Ming Yu and Lingling, Dabai was full of doubts, but knew Master wouldn’t have them searching for something for no reason. So he also began leading the Soul-devouring Ant Clan, meticulously combing through the entire Jiuzhou Abyss, hoping to find the place or the thing Mo Wei wanted them to locate. Unfortunately, in the end Dabai was still left disappointed.
