Seeing this, Xiao Hua hurriedly instructed Kun Peng and the others, "You should go with the Joyful Sect disciples as well. There is strength in numbers! This Xiao will head to Seven Absolute Ridge alone!"
"Senior Brother Xiao, be careful!" Knowing Xiao Hua's words made sense, Kun Peng recorded the general location of Seven Absolute Ridge in a jade slip and handed it to Xiao Hua, then led seven Thunder Control Sect disciples in pursuit of the Joyful Sect disciples once more!
Knowing the matter was urgent, Xiao Hua dared not delay. He sent his divine sense into the jade slip for a look, activated Thunder Control Movement, and flew into the distance amid booming thunder all around him!
He flew for several days in succession and encountered several groups of sword cultivators along the way. Yet Xiao Hua merely howled past without paying them any heed. Those swordsmen were greatly stunned as well. A few with broad experience saw his vanishing figure and the thunder lingering in midair, and their expressions changed at once. Some even shrank their necks and hastily flew elsewhere, no longer daring to approach the direction in which Xiao Hua was headed.
At noon that day, several towering peaks rose from the snowy expanse ahead. Such mountains would have been unremarkable elsewhere in Xi Country, but after becoming accustomed to the endless flatness of the Snowy Realm Plateau, their sudden appearance was naturally striking.
"Oh? This should be Seven Absolute Ridge, then?" Xiao Hua's heart stirred as he was about to take out the jade slip.
Just then, a strand of divine sense swept over him from behind.
"Who?" Xiao Hua was startled, and his flight immediately slowed. His own divine sense swept back, but when it passed beyond ten li, he abruptly realized something.
