The sun hung low in the west, its fading rays draped across the horizon.
It was already evening. Ning Xiaochuan and Duanmu Ling'er rode the Two-Headed Stone Beast. After half a month of relentless travel, they finally arrived at White Dragon City once more! White Dragon City was the domain city of the Soul Domain, only three days' journey from the Imperial City, already within the Imperial City's sphere of influence.
Not long after Ning Xiaochuan entered White Dragon City, someone came looking for him.
"Young Master Ning, I trust you have been well."
A handsome young man with a somewhat pale complexion clasped his hands toward Ning Xiaochuan, a friendly smile on his face.
He was dressed with great refinement, in a left-lapelled robe and a jade-silk belt. Even every button was inlaid with azure gold.
Ning Xiaochuan removed the bamboo hat from his head and stared at the young man in surprise. "Ji Yifan!"
This young man was Ji Yifan, one of the rising stars of the Heaven Extinction Path.
The person who had come with Ji Yifan was another rising star of the Heaven Extinction Path, Shi Dahai.
Back in the Imperial City, Ji Yifan and Shi Dahai had wanted to probe Ning Xiaochuan's cultivation, only to be defeated by him.
It was also because of that incident that Ning Xiaochuan and Yu Ningsheng had chased them out of the Imperial City, pursuing them all the way to White Dragon City. That was when Ning Xiaochuan learned that they were disciples of the Heaven Extinction Path.
Ji Yifan slightly cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I never thought that a great figure like Young Master Ning would still remember insignificant people like us."
Ning Xiaochuan did not consider them insignificant. Their cultivation was even stronger
