"Dui Qimeng!" Qian Mo naturally could not let the two Nascent Soul seniors speak first, and reminded her, "Since Cui Hongshen has already perished, that means you... now have no attachments. As for Xuntian City's matter..."

"Many thanks, Fellow Daoist Qian!" Snowy Realm True Person no longer wished to remain in
