By the faint moonlight, Hun Han and Princess Yaoye finally approached the cave glowing with Moonlight Stones.
The cave was not wide. More than half its entrance was blocked by rubble and twisted trees, leaving room for only one person to pass through.
"Hmm? Dou Qi Manifestation Wings?"
At the cave entrance sat an old man in gray robes. He looked at Hun Han and Princess Yaoye in astonishment. On his chest was a badge bearing four vividly colored poisonous centipedes.
