For now, Leng Yue's dash toward the Myriad Flowers Plane could be set aside.
After parting from Leng Yue, Snow Woman immediately sent a Message Talisman to He Tian, the Third Young Venerable of the Yin-Yang Sacred Palace.
They had not seen each other in years. As far as He Tian knew, Snow Woman had already fallen.
Sending him a message out of the blue made her uneasy. She worried that he might refuse the Message Talisman, or that it might never reach him at all.
To her surprise, the talisman went through on the first try.
Less than three months later, she received his reply.
He Tian was delighted to learn that Snow Woman was still alive and arranged to meet her on the Divine Martial Plane.
Snow Woman considered the journey. The Divine Martial Plane was not too far away; if she was careful and nothing went wrong along the way, it would take only a million years.
So she changed course and headed straight for the Divine Martial Plane.
About 1.2 million years later, Snow Woman arrived on the Divine Martial Plane and once again met He Tian, the Third Young Venerable of the Yin-Yang Sacred Palace, whom she had not seen in many years.
At that moment—
The Third Young Venerable of the Yin-Yang Sacred Palace wore a snow-white robe edged in gold. His bearing was unworldly, his noble air unmistakable, and he brimmed with confidence.
What startled Snow Woman most was the faint aura of seven Undying Heavenly Wheels she sensed from him. That meant the Third Young Venerable had become a Seven-Wheel Realm Ancient God in the years since they last met.
It gave her quite a shock.
Back when she had first met He Tian, she had been a Six-Wheel Realm Ancient God.
