Chapter 514: On the Great Snow Mountain_1

Chapter 514

The next morning, Cheng Dalei returned to Frog City with his sword. As expected, he found nothing. He had to admit that he had underestimated the White-robed Nun.

Despite her severe injuries, she had amazing stamina. Cheng Dalei could keep pace with her only in the first half of the night. Afterward, he completely lost sight of her. The pursuit had exhausted him, his energy was almost drained. He reasoned that even if he managed to catch up with her, he might be the one dying instead.

He knew better than to make the same mistake as Nie Yinniang had. So, when Cheng Dalei realised he couldn't keep up halfway, he wisely decided to return home.

Unlike last time, Frog City was considerably calmer. No substantial forces were deployed for the search, there were merely a few lookout posts at the city gates ready to report back as soon as they received news about Cheng Dalei.

"Clan Head, you are back," the city gate guard greeted.
