So unfair! So unfair!

"That's weird, where did the Holy Maiden go?"

"I swear I just saw her come out a moment ago. How did she disappear so suddenly? Could it be that the Holy Maiden knows what's going on with that strange phenomenon caused by the nine dragons?"

"No idea. But ever since Valentine's Day started approaching, I've noticed the Holy Maiden's been acting a little... off."

"Off? How so?"

"Yeah, like... could it be that with Valentine's Day coming up, the Holy Maiden's thinking about love?"

"That's impossible, right? I mean, she's been single for, what, 800 years? She's probably long past caring about that stuff..."

The female disciple who said that immediately realized how harsh it sounded and quickly covered her mouth.

After all, being single for 800 years... yeah, that's a bit embarrassing.

Besides...

Looking around, the female disciple felt like crying.

There wasn't a single male disciple in the entire Blooming Sanctuary.
