After leaving Wang Zhizhi, Pei Yuhang visited several other female disciples, senior and junior alike, who had once pursued him. Inexplicably, they had all later cut off contact and vanished from his life.
At first, the meetings would start out well enough. But the moment he mentioned "Liyuan," their expressions would change without fail.

It was as if they had experienced something truly terrifying that had left them deeply traumatized.
Pei Yuhang's expression was grim. He fought back the dark urge to violate Sect rules and use a Soul Search on his fellow disciples, deciding instead to see the last person on his list for the day.
Her name was Fan Lingling.
She had once been an incredibly bold junior disciple. Though she wasn't a student of the Nameless Daoist, she would always sneak away from her own abode to pester him with a cheerful grin, begging him to teach her Swordsmanship.
