Under Xiao Bai's guidance, Tai Yi and the others soon arrived outside Far North City.
Snow Empress and the other two immediately returned to the Donghuang Bell.
Tai Yi turned to Xiao Bai and said,
"Xiao Bai, shrink down and come into the city with me."
Hearing Tai Yi's words, Xiao Bai said nothing and simply shrank until he stood only waist-high beside Tai Yi.
Then Tai Yi entered Far North City with Xiao Bai. Once inside, the two concealed their presence, because Tai Yi wanted to slip over to the Leng Clan and see how Leng Qianqiu was doing.
Before long, Tai Yi and Xiao Bai reached the Leng Clan. There, in Leng Qianji's room, Tai Yi saw Leng Feng suppressing the Soul Power inside Leng Qianji's body so that it would not kill him.
Once he had finished, Leng Qianqiu prepared to use her own Soul Power to ease Leng Qianji's pain.
Seeing this, Leng Feng said to Leng Qianqiu,
"Qianqiu, why don't you stop? You've come every day this past month to do this. Your foundation is unstable now, and you can barely keep your Soul Power at level twenty-five."
Leng Qianji, lying on the bed, spoke up too.
"That's right, little sister. You don't have to do this. This is my punishment, not something you should suffer for. I can bear the pain."
Over the past month, Leng Qianji had watched Leng Qianqiu—whom he had bullied and insulted—come to help him every day. Each time he saw her exhaust her Soul Power for his sake and then collapse, helpless, he had asked himself: if he and Leng Qianqiu switched places, could he do the same as her?
During that month, Leng Qianji had also reflected on what he had done before. Now, he understood his mistakes.
