Outside Great Ape Mountain, the wind and snow howled.
An extremely hidden cave dwelling lay deep in the mountains. At this moment, the wind and snow shattered, and a shadow as dark as ink shook off its cloak, shaking off the snow from its shoulders.
"Master, have you returned?"
The cave was lit by warm light.
Ye Ling knelt before the campfire, having waited for a long time.
After the Eclipse War ended.
Ye Ling was forced to separate from the Master.
But in her eyes, this was her true "home."
Thus, she said "returned."
"Yes."
Cui Zhen nodded calmly and said, "Have those tasks I entrusted to you been completed?"
"Most of the intelligence has been verified."
Ye Ling softly said, "Over at Heavenly Phoenix Palace, the new candidate for the throne has been decided...It should be announced to the public in a short while."
"It's about to be announced then..."
Cui Zhen slightly frowned, "That little girl's cultivation speed is faster than I imagined."
Regret arose in his heart.
