Chapter 868 – The Breeze over the River Is Cool (2/2)

Zhexiu asked, ”Have you ever seen a cat cage as large as the Garden of Zhou?”

Hu Thirty-Two humbly said, ”To be able to stay in His Holiness's miniature world for a time is a grand blessing.”

Zhexiu creased his brow.

Tang Thirty-Six sighed and said, ”Too much.”

Chen Changsheng urged, ”Hurry.”

Nanke watched as they were sent into the Garden of Zhou, then asked, ”Chen Changsheng, where are we going?”

She could remember Chen Changsheng's name now, but she still didn't know who she was, was still as ignorant as a little child.

”We're going to Holy Maiden Peak.” Chen Changsheng unfurled a map and pointed out which direction she should go.

Nanke's eyes remained dull, so it was hard to tell if she had understood the map. She asked, ”How fast?”

Chen Changsheng replied, ”As fast as you can go. Of course, don't injure yourself.”

Nanke replied, ”I understand.”

She then grabbed Chen Changsheng's neck and jumped off the cliff towards the river.

The wind over the river was somewhat chilly. As it howled against his face, Chen Changsheng cooled down somewhat.

And then, he saw the approaching river and found it impossible to calm down.

Only now did he remember that after that bloody battle in the mountains, Nanke's two wings had vanished, so how could she fly?

A hint of confusion had also appeared in Nanke's dull eyes.

She knew that she could fly, so she had instinctively jumped into the air without any fear or hesitation.

But just how exactly did she fly?

Nanke used her lightning-fast movement techniques to blink around the air in an astonishing fashion, but she could not stop her descent.

The two began to fall faster and faster, the river getting closer and closer.

She closed her eyes.

Chen Changsheng sighed and thought, without Zhizhi, what method should I use to dry these drenched clothes?

Just when they were about to fall into the river, two noises erupted from Nanke's back.

Those sounds were like the sound that the white paper on Xiao Zhang's face made in Xunyang City.

Not Fengyang City, but Xunyang City, because it was in Xunyang City when the white paper on his face had been whole.

It was somewhat like a sail unfurling as quickly as possible.

Of course, it was most similar to wings unfurling.

Dark green wings of ten-some zhang in length unfurled behind Nanke, carrying her over the rapids of the river and up into the sky.

Chen Changsheng had been even closer to the river, the bottom of his shoes even touching the water, leaving a ripple behind.

From a distance, it looked like a dragonfly lightly touching the water.

……

……

Pope Chen Changsheng had left Fengyang City, but the people of this small city found it very difficult to take their leave.

In a restaurant along the river, a young master looked at the crowd that was still gazing up the river, and a hint of annoyance appeared on his face.

”Truly a bunch of ignorant fools.”

A delicate girl walked over. It was Mu Jiushi.

The young master was Bie Tianxin.

Seeing Mu Jiushi, Bie Tianxin instantly changed his expression, harmoniously saying, ”The wind from the river is rather strong. Be careful.”

When Mu Jiushi was banished from the Li Palace, her cultivation in the Orthodoxy's techniques had been destroyed, but her strength that originated from the Great Western Continent was still there, so there was no need for her to care about any wind off the river.

Bie Tianxin only wanted to express his concern.

Mu Jiushi faintly smiled, very naturally accepting his concern and standing a little closer to him.
