The three of them followed the purple gas' lead the entire way. To protect the remaining purple aura they had, they tried not to fly too quickly. From time to time, some cultivators would fly past them. For some reason, Lonemoon felt like the more they travelled toward the north, the more cultivators there were around them. What's more, it seemed like each cultivator looked more excited than the last. Some even greeted them warmly. Lonemoon was not too bothered at first, but as the number of cultivators around them increased, the looks they were getting got stranger as well.

Lonemoon began to feel like something was amiss. However, he kept his focus on the purple aura and tried not to think too much of it. That was until Shen Ying, who was seated on Yi Qing's sword, spoke up.

"Eh, it's gone."

The two of them stopped and realised that the line in the purple gas was gone. There was nothing floating over to them anymore. "What happened?"

"If the aura didn't disappear, I think we're already here," Yi Qing replied.

The three of them scanned their surroundings. There was a lake underneath their feet, and in it stood a small island. They could vaguely make out a crowd on the island. Everybody's faces seemed to carry excited expressions, as if they were in the midst of an interesting discussion. The noise from the island travelled upward toward them.

They exchanged glances and decided to land on the island. Just as they were about to check if there was any similar aura as the purple gas' there, everybody went silent. The previously noisy island became so quiet that they could hear a pin drop. The cultivators all turned to look at them in shock and disbelief. It was incredibly strange.

Lonemoon's heart fell. Was this island private territory? Were they not allowed on the island? But from the looks of these people's clothes, they were all from different sects. There was also no array around the island. Why then were they all staring at the three of them?

Lonemoon looked back at them in confusion. Out of habit, he wore his business-like smile on his face and greeted everybody. "Greetings, fellow immortals." He was just about to ask what was going on when someone tutted!

"Hmph! How rude and unsightly!" The voice belonged to a man dressed in a green robe. He scanned Lonemoon and Yi Qing from head to toe, his expression full of contempt. One would think that he was looking at piles of garbage. "You're contaminating this holy ground." After he finished speaking, he tossed the red cloth in his hand onto a branch next to him. He tugged at the female cultivator beside him and flew off.

"..."

What just happened? Lonemoon pursed his lips. He did not just offend that cultivator, right? All he did was greet the crowd – the greeting was not even directed at that man! There was no reason for him to get mad.

Once the cultivator in the green robes left, the silence broke. Everybody burst into discussion once more, albeit in a lower volume than before. Every once in awhile, people would shoot glances at the three of them. People were obviously keeping a fair distance from the group. Some of the people from the crowd even left the island, following the cultivator in the green robes. Within seconds, a huge space was created specially for the three of them on the previously crowded island.

The three of them: "..." *What? *
