Thirty-Three Heavens, Cloud-Spanning Palace.
Dijiang sat upon the Nine Dragon Throne, sensing the Sage's pressure sweeping across Mount Buzhou. A flicker of surprise passed through his eyes.
"Yuanshi?"
Dijiang stroked his chin, a teasing smile curling at the corner of his lips.

Holding the Eight-Scenery Palace Lamp, Zhu Rong's flames leaped wildly around
