Stolen Memories

"You seem to know something." General Li said when he noticed the Fairy Empress' expression.

"You see, a gaping hole appeared in the sky above the Fairy Paradise that's right beneath us about an hour before your arrival, and an old man with an unfathomable aura descended from it—"

Before the Fairy Empress could even finish her sentence, General Li exclaimed, "That's him! What did you two speak about?!"

"N-Nothing much. He was looking for a certain individual, but he couldn't give any description or information about this individual. However, he did give me a surname— Tian."

The Fairy Empress noticed General Li's face twisting with fear after hearing her words, and she wondered what this was all about.

"T-T-This 'Tian' individual… Have you seen him?" General Li asked her after a moment of silence.
