He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the two of them had been found.
They had ascended!
As long as they had ascended, that was good.
"Then..." He Pingsheng's divine sense surged outward, sweeping through almost every corner of Lone Pine Mountain, but he saw no sign of Su Zhenzhen or He Tianya. Puzzled, he asked, "Where are they?"
