CHAPTER FIVE: Who Is It?

Chow Yi Nuo slowly opened her eyes and adjusted to the lights of the place. Had she survived? But where was her family members? She held her head, no pain, inspected her body, no bruises. She looked around the place and noted that it had a ice blue colour with glowing lights. She stood up slowly and looked at her clothing, she was in a white empire dress and her hair was let free flowing on her back. Was she in heaven?

"Chow Yi Nuo," a voice called out and Chow Yi Nuo titled her head to look at the direction the voice was coming from but saw nothing.

"Who is it?" She asked bravely.

" I am not worth knowing. I am just but a messenger sent to welcome you to another dimension. You are going to be the saviour of the human race and immortals. Demon King wants to kill all and you are the remnant of the Cong Clan who is the chosen one who can save the human race and immortals. You have to save the people before everything happens. You will be sent to the ancient world to correct and prevent everything..."

"Wait, if I am remnant of the Cong Clan. Then why is my family not here?" She inquired.

"I have to tell you that everyone in this world survives on their own and has no special connection to one another. Family is just DNA results. Understood?" The voice inquired.

"Yes." Chow Yi Nuo replied.

"Then, you will be sent directly to the other world. You will receive a title and memories of the person's body you will occupy. You will also receive instructions and orders."

After that moment, Chow Yi Nuo felt her body raised and deposited into another world.

.........

The green land was surrounded by lofty mountains whose peaks were lost among the clouds. Trees climbed the steep slopes, higher and higher, like groups of mountaineers.

As one travelled down the highway along the rocky roads, a turbulent mountain river, towards evening one suddenly saw tall, green bamboo trees flourishing in the bamboo forest.

.........

Chow Yi Nuo slowly opened her eyes and looked at the vast blue sky above her. The cotton clouds were minimal on the sky indicating that it was early evening. Chow Yi Nuo felt a sudden cold on her skin. Was it still winter? She looked around and saw the snow still on the ground. She looked up again, she could smell the faint fragrance of flowers covered under the snow.

"My lady," a young and feminine voice called out then out of nowhere, a round face popped up and looked at her. Her black hair was done in two buns and decorated with flower hair pins and pink silk ribbons tied around the buns and let to flow freely. She had fair skin which was as white as snow. Two large brimming eyes framed with eyebrows like willow leaves.

"My lady, are you okay?" The young lady asked as she blinked her eyes in confusion.

Chow Yi Nuo saw the girl in the owner of the body's memory - Zhi Meng Yao. She was the girl's personal maid servant.

Chow Yi Nuo smiled amiably exposing her eggshell white teeth and then replied, "Of course I am okay, come on. Help me up." The young lady immediately held Chow Yi Nuo's hand delicately and helped her stand up. Chow Yi Nuo dusted her clothes and looked around the place, the trees around her were covered with thin sheets of snow, the ground was also covered with the thin sheet of snow. Chow Yi Nuo had been dressed in a pink sheepskin cloak round her shoulders that was embroidered with white flowers. A pink Han Fu dress with white flower embroidery on the bodice. She had dangly earrings. Half of her hair was held into a bun and held by Ji, which was an ancient hairpin and the rest let to flow freely on her back. It was also decorated with colourful hairpins of filigree, with heads shaped as butterflies and flowers. She had also worn a round-shaped decoration on her wrist and arm. They were used to exorcise evils, pray for good luck and be beautiful.

"Where are we?" She asked the young lady.
