The newcomer was, of course, Yu Yaoguang.
Ever since hearing that trouble was following Fang Shuwen, Yu Yaoguang had grown restless in Yuqing Pavilion.
In truth, she had been worried sick ever since Fang Shuwen set off for the Northern Domain.
But that little rascal left without sending a single word back.
She wasn't worried about his safety; she had absolute confidence in Fang Shuwen.
But confidence couldn't soothe the torment of longing.
Meanwhile, she had to remain and oversee Yuqing Pavilion. As the Sect Leader of Yuqing Pavilion, she was well aware of her duties.
Fortunately, even though she couldn't see Fang Shuwen, news of his exploits in the Northern Domain eventually made its way back to her.
She heard how he had showcased his incredible power in Anyue City and awed the gathered heroes on Celestial Martial Peak.
She felt a secret pride, but it only made her miss him more.
