"Where am I? Who are you?"
Just as Shi Ziyi attacked Rong Xuan, Xiao Cha awoke in the Cloud Lodge. Cihang Zhai's Cloud Lodge was utterly unfamiliar to Xiao Cha, yet despite finding herself in this completely strange place, she was not particularly panicked. The Gu poison within her body, which had continuously devoured her life force, had been completely purged. Moreover, Xiao Cha could sense that the delicate, bookish young woman in white standing not far from her, whose eyes were fixed on the window with deep concern, bore her no ill will.
"My name is Rou Jia. I am a disciple of Cihang Zhai. You are currently in Cihang Zhai's Cloud Lodge."
Seeing that Xiao Cha had awakened, the bookish young woman in white standing by the window gave a concise explanation. "My Junior Sister Shi Jian found you and brought you back. My Senior Sister Yun Yuan and the others saved you."
"Cihang Zhai?" A gentle breeze drifted through the window and brushed Xiao Cha's face. She was slightly dazed. She had known little of the Xuanmen sects in the world to begin with, so she knew nothing at all about Cihang Zhai.
"How did you come to be afflicted by the Black Flame Gu?" Rou Jia, standing by the window and gazing toward the Heart Lodge in the distance, suddenly came to her senses and swiftly turned to ask Xiao Cha. Yet the instant she turned around, Rou Jia could not help but pause in slight astonishment. Xiao Cha's face was somewhat pale, and her eyes held a trace of confusion, but she looked so beautiful.
"Hundred Poisons Mountain Man... Nan Liyue..."
With every name Xiao Cha spoke, the chill in Rou Jia's heart deepened, until it was even laced with an uncontrollable tremor.
Kunlun?!
