Chapter 356 A Heaven Shaking Incident
"Who are you?", Su'er asked with a baffled expression on her face. She couldn't understand why the beauty infront of her was calling both her and Ling'er as palace masters.
The same was in the mind of Ling'er as she couldn't understand what was happening. She looked towards the grandfather of Shen Ruyan who was also accompanying the female expert.
"Grandfather, what is happening here?", the voice of Shen Ruyan came out suddenly. She felt some disturbance in Su'er and Ling'er's room. So, she had stepped out of her room to check on them.
"Ruyan!", the grandfather of Shen Ruyan frowned a little. He sent her a mental message to keep calm and looked back towards Su'er and Ling'er.
"Senior, please get up. I don't know why are you calling us sisters palace masters", Su'er looked towards Ning Mei Zhen.
"Palace master, thank you. Let me introduce myself.
I hope both of you will agree to leave with us after hearing the entire matter", Ning Mei Zhen spoke after getting up. She waited silently for the permission of both Ling'er and Su'er to introduce herself.
"Young miss", Ling'er was the first to call out Shen Ruyan. She was feeling apprehensive and confused after seeing such respective attitude of the female expert towards them. Su'er also looked towards Shen Ruyan for help. Both of them had never taken an important decision without the involvement of Shen Ruyan. So, at such a confusing moment, both of them looked towards Shen Ruyan for help.
Ning Mei Zhen creased her burrows slightly after seeing the attitude of Su'er and Ling'er towards Shen Ruyan. She couldn't stand the fact that her palace masters were acting submissive infront of an ordinary woman.
"Senior, pardon me for the interruption. Both of them are like my younger sisters and they are always shy infront of strangers. So, I humbly request you to tell us about your purpose of visiting", Shen Ruyan spoke. She was feeling apprehensive yet she chose to confront Ning Mei Zhen.

The incident of Shen clan spread like a wild fire in the entire Central land. Many experts including the Imperial Xie clan went to visit the Shen clan after the flying ships disappeared from the Luan province.
Zhan Chen heard about the incident after he returned from his trip. It was Nu Quang who informed him about the Shen clan when he returned to his mountain.
"What actually happened? Why would such powerful experts come to take away two maids from the Shen clan?", Zhan Chen frowned after hearing the words of Nu Quang. An uneasy feeling rose in his heart after he heard the words of Nu Quang.
"I must contact Shen Ruyan. It will be good as long as those two girls are not involved", he thought to himself after Nu Quang bade his farewell.
He was just thinking about visiting the Shen clan personally when a familiar person came flying towards his mountain. She was being accompanied by an elder of the Sword peak.
"Liu Nanxi! Why are you here?", Zhan Chen asked with a surprised expression on his face. The reticent beauty had a serious expression on her face as she looked towards Zhan Chen.
"You two Know each other?", the elder from the Sword peak asked with a surprised expression on his face. Zhan Chen nodded his head firmly after hearing the question.
"Okay, my assignment is over for now. Miss Nanxi, you may look for me in the Sword peak if you need any help", the elder from the Sword peak spoke. He bade farewell to both Zhan Chen and Liu Nanxi before flying away from Zhan Chen's mountain.
"Tell me? What happened?", Zhan Chen looked towards Liu Nanxi after the elder from the Sword peak left. Liu Nanxi didn't say anything in reply but she took out an exquisite looking jade from her spatial ring.
"Check this. You will get your answer after seeing it", Liu Nanxi gave the exquisite looking jade to Zhan Chen.
Zhan Chen checked the jade with his soul consciousness and a surprised expression appeared on his face. "A peak heaven grade memory jade!", he murmured after examining the jade in his hand.
He sent a trace of his essence energy into the exquisite looking jade and the memory jade lit up. Two miniature figures appeared in the air after Zhan Chen activated the memory jade.
"Young master, we are sorry", the twin miniature figures spoke at once. Zhan Chen felt like his heart skipped a beat because the twin miniature figures were Su'er and Ling'er.
"Young master, the cultivation technique we have received from the Cleansing incense ancient sect was Celestial Harmony technique. This technique is related with the Gemini palace from the immortal world", the figure of Su'er was first to speak.
"Young master, they are insisting us to follow them and we didn't wish to trouble young miss and her clan. Moreover, from the behaviour of the experts of Gemini palace, we can guess that they will not make our life difficult", the figure of Ling'er added.
"Young master, we have wanted to see you before we leave but young miss stopped us from bringing up your matter. There may be something untoward happened if we have shown up with the Gemini palace slexperts. So, we have avoided meeting you. Hopefully, we can come back soon and serve young master", Su'er spoke. Zhan Chen could tell that both of the girls were feeling melancholic while leaving behind the message for him. He clenched his fists after the twin figures disappeared from the air.
"Immortal world, Gemini palace. I vow I will go there as soon as possible. My dream, you girls are leaving it on my behalf. Please have patience while I make my way towards that legendary world", Zhan Chen muttered. He felt slightly sad but this parting made him more determined than ever. Liu Nanxi felt happy after seeing how easily Zhan Chen overcame his sadness. She felt impressed after seeing the burning determination in Zhan Chen's eyes.
"Nanxi, how is Ruyan doing? Is she sad after Su'er and Ling'er left her?", Zhan Chen looked towards Liu Nanxi.
"Young miss is obviously sad but she has hidden it. She is currently entertaining the guests from various powers who has come to visit the Shen clan after experts from the Gemini palace has vanished", Liu Nanxi replied.
"Please ask her to visit the Xuantian sect on my behalf. I think her mood will improve if she stay here for few days", Zhan Chen spoke. He could imagine how lonely Shen Ruyan would fell after Su'er and Ling'er had left.
"I will give your message to young miss. I am happy that you have managed to calm yourself pretty quickly after hearing this news. My job is done now. So, I should leave", Liu Nanxi spoke. There was a calm expression on her face yet there was a hidden bitterness in her heart.
