It was just like those most ordinary old ladies you see in the streets and alleyways, starting to talk about the past and the children around them.
"Little Muyun, co here."
You and Zhao’er were standing outside on the balcony, admiring the view, when you heard grandmother’s call.
"Grandmother."
The experiences of this past year had made you grow up a lot, and you were no longer as immature as before in your dealings with people.
Grandmother looked at you and Zhao’er with a smile, "Mother En tells you plan to enter Eternal Night to find Su Su?"
"Mm!"
You nodded very firmly.
"Your willingness makes happy for little Su Su. However, Eternal Night is not a place just anyone can enter. It’s full of intricate relationships, and hidden within the darkness are many malevolent, cruel characters. You must be very careful."
You thought for a mont and then asked grandmother, "Grandmother, how did Su Su co to our world from Eternal Night?"
Grandmother and Mother En exchanged looks, then sighed softly, "It was the Heavenly Fox Clan that exchanged the lives of ten elders for the chance. The Heavenly Fox Clan simply hoped that Su Su could survive in the Human World, they never expected her to return. But that girl is stubborn; in the end, she chose a path of no return."
"Grandmother, do you know what the situation is like there now?"
But all you received was a shake of the head and a sigh from grandmother.
"It’s impossible for humans to know the situation in Eternal Night, and the Demon Clan absolutely refuses to talk about it."
Since grandmother also wasn’t clear about the entrance to Eternal Night, you had no choice but to go looking for Zhou Zelin.
At this mont, Mother En suddenly asked grandmother a question, "Sister, has sothing happened with the Chu Sect?"
Grandmother nodded, "Soone from above has co down."
What grandmother said was applicable anywhere, but said in such a situation, it made you involuntarily look up at the sky outside.
Mother En seed to have expected this and asked in a low voice, "Whose family did they go to?"
"The Ye Family."
"Hmph, they really know how to pick their targets. Every mber of the Ye Family has a thick skull, full of class consciousness, especially the current leader of the Ye Family; he will do anything to study the Immortality Art. To soone coming down from above, they would surely bow and scrape, granting every request."
Mother En huffed coldly, then turned to look at you, "What I’ve been most worried about all along has finally happened. The influence of the Chu Sect is growing stronger, and the Red Mansion is doing everything against those from above. This ti, they probably have designs on seizing power."
Shrugging and smiling, you seed unconcerned, "It’s just the sa old tricks. Those old fogies above are narrow-minded as chicks, their brains packed with nothing more than these petty tricks. No matter who cos, I’ll just stab them in the Ju Hua again if it cos to that."
Hearing this, Mother En couldn’t help but give you an annoyed look.
Grandmother, on the other hand, was full of curiosity, "Little Muyun, have you fought with the Gods?"
"Uh..."
You hesitated about whether or not to speak when Mother En gently hit your shoulder with her stick, staring with wide eyes and saying, "Little brat, this is your grandmother!"
"Oh."
Seeing grandmother’s grin, you naturally rolled your eyes; like mother, like daughter. You could see your own mother’s temperant in grandmother quite easily.
Afterward, you briefly described to grandmother the events that took place within the Map of Kingdom.
And after listening, grandmother didn’t ask anything else, just one thing: "Little Muyun, after you ca out, do you still rember the ntal thod and chant of the Qi Tian Staff?"
You nodded and said quite naturally, "Mm, I rember. It’s just that, I tried it before with a stick made of fine steel, but it was too brittle. The Qi Tian Stick thod borrows the power of heaven and earth; even aerospace materials can’t withstand it."
Grandmother then said, "Do you still rember where the Immovable Dragon Pole was located inside the Map of Kingdom?"
With that, you fell silent, then closed your eyes with nurous images flashing through your mind.
Soon, with your eyes closed, you described the scenes you saw: "It seed to be in a mountain range, with peaks stretching on all sides... The east was plain, the north and south were mountains, and to the west was a desert."
When you opened your eyes, you saw grandmother, who usually didn’t make a fuss, reaching out and grabbing into the air, and a scroll emitting a mysterious light floated in her hand.
After opening the scroll, you intentionally stood behind her to look, but all you saw was mysterious light, completely indecipherable.
Yet grandmother seed to read it as if it was a satellite map, her finger rapidly pointing and swiping on it. About three minutes later, she stopped her movents, turned to you, and said, "See if it’s here."
"Grandmother, I can’t see anything."
Grandmother then realized, "Sorry, I got too excited and forgot to show it to you."
Then, in the air two or three ters in front of you, an image appeared just like a thought hologram projection.
The image started in a satellite map state, overlooking from above.
And you looked very carefully, entering into the full hologram projection, after careful comparison, you suddenly extended a finger in one direction and said to grandmother, "Grandmother, zoom in on this place."
Like in the movies, the view suddenly dropped from the sky, and the mountain range instantly enlarged!
Soon, you saw a strangely shaped peak in your field of view.
The peak looked like a volcano, except at the top it wasn’t a crater but a flat area the size of three sports stadiums.
The flat area was rugged with rocks and without a single plant or even a hint of moss.
In the center of the flat area stood a particularly steep rock, which arose abruptly. Its exterior was irregular, but it was tall, and when the image was at a one-to-one scale, the rock was as high as a ten-story building.
"That’s it!" At this mont, you were understandably thrilled, "I never expected it to also exist in the real world."
That’s when Mother En remarked, "Little Yunyun, you might not know, but that Map of Kingdom is not a fake."
"Ah?"
Just as you were about to ask more, Mother En smiled and shook her head, "Let’s not talk about the design of Sharp Mountain anymore."
After the shock, you got the hint, "Mm, okay."
You then asked grandmother, "Grandmother, is this place far from the capital city?"
"Close?" Grandmother said with a laugh, "It’s on the Pamir Plateau!"
Damn!
As soon as you heard Pamir Plateau, the na Mount Buzhou naturally ca to your mind.
The Pamir Plateau is at the extre west of China, essentially the rear end of the rooster on China’s map.
Mother En then slowly stood up and said with a smile, "Let’s go."
