"Weilan greets the Four Elders, please forgive this one for not greeting properly just now since it was an emergency."

Bowing her head, Weilan greeted the four people in front of her. Indeed, just as she had expected, the four elders weren't in fact elderly.

They were all young man who seemed to be in their late twenties. Each carrying a dignified charisma and was definitely strong in their own sense. 

In the past, when she was still working under Li Weige, she had learned of Guiwang Valley and knew that there were 4 infamous Elders in Guiwang Valley, each specializing in a different field and each with a unique personality.

She had imagined 4 old heroic immortal looking old mans with long beards and wrinkly foreheads, but upon seeing these devastatingly beautiful men, what Elder? Where is that image of wrinkly and wise looking elders in her head?

"No need to be formal."

The one who spoke was dressed in light blue robes, his entire being seemed to emit a scholarly atmosphere and his cautious eyes seemed to be able to read through people's thoughts. 

Judging by the way the man spoke, Weilan would already tell who was whom.

The First Elder was known to be a skilled practitioner in Medicine and Poison, Yizhen was calm and tranquil, dressed in pure white brocade with gentle eyes that seemed to be smiling and kind. His face was handsome with features that seemed to be the work of art.

The Second Elder was the seductive array master in red, who had been in the room, Rifeng.

The Third Elder was supposedly the most intelligent out of the four and is well known to be skilled in strategies and warfare, the Forth Elder was a powerful Martial artist who had kept Guiwang Valley safe from the reaches of other people.

Very quickly, she was drawn out of her train of thoughts, 

"I am Sanxian and this is my younger twin brother, Qiuqi. "

She quickly nodded her head as her lips curled ever so slightly at the edges, unknowingly, her smile had caught the 5 people in front of her off guard, 

"This girl goes by the name Weilan. I will be troubling Third and Fourth elder in this journey."

"No need for thanks, if there is a battle I, Qiuqi will-"

Before Qiuqi could finish his unnecessary bragging, Sanxian had already flicked his forehead, so loud that Weilan got a shock.

Seeing this, Master Rong shook his head.

"Yatou, this two might seem immature but they will be of help. Sanxian knows the path in the mountains and Qiuqi this muscle-head, his strengths makes up for the missing intelligence."

Hearing that, Weilan couldn't help but look down and stifle a small chuckle. But just as quickly as her smile appeared, a serious and sombre expression replaced her smile.

"Thank you, then I will leave now before the sun sets."

YiZhen couldn't help but question with a worried frown,

"You don't plan to prepare anything? Aren't you in too much of a hurry?"

Picking up the dagger, she continued as usual, treating her words like treasure.

"No need, the sooner we get the jade core, the better. "

                                   -;-

A small group could be seen galloping down the route that lead to the northwest part of the mountain.

In the front, Sanxian was leading, with Qiuqi and Weilan following closely behind.
