The ones breaking through the clouds were Bie Yanghong and Wuqiong Bi.
The dust of eighty thousand li had been utterly blown away by the high-altitude winds, but such winds had failed to scatter the weight and solemnity in their eyes.
After leaving Holy Maiden Peak, they had taken a little time to regulate their breathing. However, they had not waited for their injuries to fully recover before rushing over to White Emperor City.
Even as experts of the Divine Domain, they had paid no small price to accomplish this feat. Their complexions were somewhat pale and they seemed rather fatigued.
Standing on the green mountain, Bie Yanghong assessed his surroundings. With the slightest focus, his eyes could clearly make out everything that happened for several dozen li.
Across the river, White Emperor City was in turmoil, a sign that the demi-humans had noticed their arrival and were rushing to mobilize their troops and experts.
Bie Yanghong raised his right hand and spread apart his fingers.
Several deep blue ice crystals, exuding a boundless chill, drifted out of his palm. Though the wind blew upon them, they did not float away with the wind.
Those crystals of ice weightlessly drifted towards somewhere behind the mountain.
Bie Yanghong and Wuqiong Bi followed.
In a short while, they saw a massive tree that soared more than a thousand zhang into the sky, piercing through the clouds and to the beyond.
The tree was so thick that standing in front of it made one feel like it was a city wall. At the base of the tree was a cave, and in the cave, a little house had been built.
A black-clothed girl sat on a stone stool within the house. With her chin on her hands, she seemed rather depressed.
Those blue crystals rushed over to her in streams of light as if they were family.
The girl noticed and raised her head.
The ice crystals bored into the red birthmark between her eyebrows and vanished.
The black-clothed girl saw Bie Yanghong and Wuqiong Bi appear behind those icy crystals, and wariness appeared on her cold and beautiful face.
She was a proud and powerful dragon, but she could clearly sense that these two human experts had the ability to harm her.
Bie Yanghong's gaze dropped to the girl's feet. Seeing the chain, he slightly frowned.
Wuqiong Bi's complexion turned extremely nasty upon seeing the black-clothed girl. In her thinking, even if Bie Tianxin's death had nothing to do with the girl, he had still died to her dragon breath. Just when she was prepared to vent her spleen, she was stopped by Bie Yanghong's stern gaze.
”Lady Zhusha, I will think of a method to save you,” Bie Yanghong said to the black-clothed girl.
This black-clothed girl was naturally the legend of New North Bridge and Pope Chen Changsheng's Protector.
She had many names. Chen Changsheng liked to call her Zhizhi, but Bie Yanghong and other experts from his generation were used to calling her by the name Wang Zhice had bestowed upon her: Zhusha.
The chain at the girl's foot confirmed to Bie Yanghong that the death of his son had nothing to do with her, as it was impossible for her to leave this mountain.
Since this was the case, he naturally had to think of a way to rescue her.
By now, Zhizhi had guessed at who Bie Yanghong and Wuqiong Bi were.
In truth, it was because Bie Yanghong's red flower was far too famous, as were the nastiness of both Wuqiong Bi's complexion and her horsetail whisk.
She had been imprisoned on this mountain for quite some time, so she had begun to form a few conjectures. She had even sensed the death of a Divine Domain expert the day before yesterday. But in the end, she still did not know what exactly had happened, much less why two of the continent's experts would suddenly appear here.
She pondered Bie Yanghong's words, then said, ”Then I'll have to thank you, though the task seems rather challenging.”
