“Ability?” Su Yingxue sat up and felt dizzy.
After lying in bed for so many days, she managed to save her life.
Fortunately, her life was saved.
With a daily regimen of light meals and prolonged confinement in darkness, her voice was somewhat hoarse as she spoke, “Who is your master? Where am I?”
She had a hunch that she was now far from Jiang Du City.
“These details are better left for you to learn from my master when you’re able to see him alive.”
This person was quite rule-abiding. He refrained from uttering another word.
He brought Su Yingxue out of the cabin and onto the shore. He pointed out a path for her to walk up on her own.
Su Yingxue stood on the shore and looked out. The place where she came from by boat was the vast sea, and the road that was given to her was a towering mountain.
Stretching into the clouds, the stairs seemed to have no end in sight.
Ah Hong had already departed. He took the cargo brought on the ship and ascended the mountain path.
He looked behind him. Su Yingxue had gradually turned into a small figure. She had not moved, as if she could not walk.
He walked to a carriage and whispered, “Master, that lady hasn’t budged yet. I fear she may not withstand the rough journey.”
The man in the carriage appeared nonchalant and languid. As the carriage curtains swayed, only half of his exquisitely refined face was visible. “If she can ascend, then let her. If not, then let her perish. Leave her be.”
Ah Hong suddenly felt a twinge of sympathy for Su Yingxue. However, considering his master’s cold-hearted demeanor, he refrained from further comment and joined another carriage.
Their mode of transport wasn’t conventional. It utilized power ropes, effortlessly ascending the mountain.
Even Su Yingxue at the mountain’s base noticed this.
These mechanisms were unfamiliar to her, yet she recognized their ingenuity.
Both in design and material, they were rare sights in her era.
Suddenly, thoughts of her mother crossed her mind.
Her mother wasn’t the only one who had ventured into this era. There was also Wu Dao, HanYuwen…
Now, she had likely encountered another extraordinary figure from a different era, right?
If one hadn’t seen such phenomena before, it would indeed be peculiar.
Su Yingxue had encountered many such instances, thus they no longer surprised her.
However, with her current weakened state, climbing thousands of steps unaided was impossible.
The Little Ginseng had fallen into a deep slumber again to save her, and she couldn’t betray its kindness.
Su Yingxue looked at the rope that was set up along the mountain and then looked at the nearby forest. She turned around and went into the forest.
An hour later, Ah Hong and his master reached the mountain’s summit and returned to Yungui City.
In the city, there was a tall hexagonal tower that overlooked the entire city.
Beneath the majestic tower, the Silver Moon Pavilion sign gleamed prominently.
As Ah Hong was about to assist his master out of the carriage, a clear, ethereal voice cut through the air, “Where is she?”
Behind him, a woman dressed in snow-white clothes floated in the air. Her entire body could only be described as snow-white. Her skin was as white as snow and her features as delicate as those of a celestial from heaven.
Ah Hong immediately bowed respectfully. “Princess Sheng, the lady is still at the mountain’s base. Master instructed her to ascend on her own, hence we didn’t bring her along.”
Compared to the concise response given to Su Yingxue, Ah Hong’s words to Rong Sheng were more extensive.
After all, the extent of one’s speech depended on their status.
Upon hearing this, Rong Sheng frowned. “Chu Yifeng!”
