Dugu Linglong raised a finger and gently touched the paper crane between its eyes.
The next moment.
Chu Xuan's urgent, feeble voice emerged from the talisman paper.
"Master's wife."
"Mount Zhongnan has been invaded by a powerful enemy."
"My life hangs by a thread. Please return at once!"
The voice fell silent.
The yellow paper crane lost its last trace of light and swiftly crumbled into ash.
Dugu Linglong stared at the ashes scattered across her palm, and her heart, which had never quite settled, suddenly clenched.
"Go faster."
She raised her eyes, unmistakable urgency entering her cool voice for the first time.
"Chu Xuan is in danger."
Shadow Charm glanced at Jiang Che through the rearview mirror.
After receiving his signal, she asked no questions and floored the accelerator.
The Black Off-Road Vehicle let out a low roar, accelerating again!
Jiang Che turned to look out the window.
With his cultivation at the heavenly human peak, he could already sense the fluctuations of true qi coming from deep within Mount Zhongnan.
One presence was fierce and domineering. It belonged to Chu Feng.
The other was extraordinarily weak, as though it might vanish completely at any moment.
Clearly.
This fight to the death between Children of Destiny, which he had personally set in motion, was nearing its final stage.
Jiang Che betrayed nothing on his face.
"How far are we from the sect's entrance?"
"Eleven kilometers."
Shadow Charm answered promptly.
"Three kilometers ahead, the mountain road becomes impassable for vehicles."
"You and Master Zhiheng will have to walk up the mountain, Young Master."
Meanwhile, at the Rear Mountain Ancestral Mausoleum.
Chu Feng's third heavy kick came crashing down.
Boom!
The Ancient Pine finally failed to withstand such powerful attacks and snapped in two at the middle of its trunk!
