Luo Jinsang let out a gasp as her body lost support and began to fall. Qing Ji grabbed her hand and stepped onto a piece of cloud.

"Little girl, what is that weird sound, hmm?"

"I think it's probably a demon bird, maybe being manipulated by a demon master, maybe also blocking our way south." Luo Jinsang was held by Qing Ji and her body dangled in the air, but she was not afraid.

"Why don't you go take a look? And if convenient, can also help me capture the demon master." Qing Ji laughed.

"I knew there was something fishy going on."

The cries in the distance grew louder and closer. Qing Ji smiled gently and her eyes flashed. She did not open her mouth, but a call of the phoenix resonated through the sky, drowning out the demonic cries and scattering clouds within a thousand miles. In the distance, a black monster crow came into view with a man standing on its back.

Luo Jinsang pointed at him and said, "That's probably the one."

"Little girl, I only promised you one favor. I have no intention of getting involved in this mess of a war."

"Well, we're already here," Luo Jinsang urged on.

"Even if you don't want to get involved, he's still not going to let us go." Qing Ji glanced at Luo Jinsang.

"If you want to use me, at least use me for something big. But that little crow over there?" Qing Ji said.

"Have you not heard of my legends?" Luo Jinsang struggled a bit to lift her head.

"What do you want to do?" Qing Ji let out an alluring smile.

"Like you said, we're already here, so let's do something big."

"Huh?"

While Luo Jinsang was still confused, Qing Ji held on to her hand and took a dive for the demon masters' camp on the ground.

.....

Ji Yunhe knew very clearly that she was dreaming again. It was the same hazy void. This time, she heard the woman's voice with unparalleled clarity.

"Am I one step closer to death?" Ji Yunhe asked her.

"I want to confirm something with you..."

"I know what you want to confirm." Ji Yunhe raised an eyebrow as the woman continued,

"Your life, his life, the lives of all the people in the world, I know them all."

"You know them all?"

"After I died, my spirit became one with the wind. Wherever there is wind, there's my perception." She looked at Ji Yunhe and held her hand.

"Come, I'll lend you my eyes."

Just like last time, a vision appeared in front of Ji Yunhe. Except this time it was not the memories of the woman…

It was Qing Ji and Luo Jinsang, and...

Lin Haoqing...

Qing Ji dashed into the camp of the demon masters in her natural form. Luo Jinsang disappeared, likely went invisible to hide...

Qing Ji's monstrous claws tore open Lin Haoqing's tent with the surrounding people scattering in chaos -- demon masters, demons, and the courier, Siyu, were all present. With a sharp call, giant claws grabbed onto Lin Haoqing's arm.

"I told them to get the demon master, what are they doing with Lin Haoqing?" Ji Yunhe scolded.

"Ridiculous!"

The woman in white took Ji Yunhe's hand and waved it in the air. The vision disappeared on one side then reappeared on the other. She saw Changyi had already captured a demon master, knocked him out and was on his way back. Changyi looked anxious, his speed was as fast as it could be.

The woman in white waved her hand again and another room appeared in front of Ji Yunhe. She had never seen this room before, but the look and feel reminded her of the prison that held her for six years...
