Yan Zhaoge had originally been prepared to directly appear and greet the other party. Still, upon hearing the words' Snow Crane ', he instantly halted.
"I should not have heard wrongly, right?" Yan Zhaoge was expressionless, "They mentioned the words' Snow Crane 'just now, right?"
While this title, or codename, could also refer to someone else.
Still, for Yan Zhaoge who had always been paying attention to news of his mother, upon hearing these two words, the first thing that came to his mind was naturally Xue Chuqing.
The characteristics that the other party had mentioned were also similar to Xue Chuqing's.
Yan Zhaoge could not help but pay attention to this.
His gaze hardened slightly as he circulated the Peerless Heavenly Scripture, retracting his aura before striding forward once more, secretly approaching the other party.
There were a total of three people guarding the entrance of the dimensional passageway.
One of them was a mid Seeing Divinity Martial Saint, leading the way. Apart from that, there were two late Merging Avatar Martial Saints.
One of them was precisely that youth whose features resembled Sikong Qing's.
The three of them were clearly in charge of guarding this door, acting as reinforcements while also preventing the target within from escaping.
The other Clear Light Locale disciples passed through the dimensional passageway, heading to the other side.
That fifth level Martial Saint looked like a middle-aged man with a white face and a slight beard, his figure slightly chubby.
He was currently saying, "Someone in the vicinity has personally seen her. This foreign dimension should be where she is currently residing."
Opposite the middle-aged man, a long-faced youth snorted, "We will definitely be able to stop her this time. I don't believe that she will be able to escape this time. Am I right, senior apprentice-brother Lao?"
The expression of that white-faced middle-aged man, senior apprentice-brother Lao, was not relaxed, "Let's hope so. That Snow Crane is a descendant of the earlier Divine Divination technique of the River Diagram and Luo Inscriptions. Also, her attainments in this art are extraordinarily high. Even when she was still a Martial Grandmaster or even a Martial Scholar, she was already rather miraculous."
"In recent years, she has even neared the level of being able to foresee and avoid danger. Otherwise, she would not have been unable to be stopped after so many years."
Senior apprentice-brother Lao said earnestly, "Still, there is great hope this time. As soon as we received the news, we rushed over, also bringing along a treasure that can conceal the mysteries of the heavens."
The horse-faced man sighed. "If Master had personally taken action, it would have been a piece of cake."
Senior apprentice-brother Lao shook his head, "Master also has his misgivings and people to be on guard against. For example, our neighbor to the north. The place this time just happens to be at the border between our Eastern Vast Heaven Territory and Northeastern Sky Heaven Territory. What I'm most worried about is that something unexpected might happen."
The youth who bore a striking resemblance to Sikong Qing asked, "Senior Brother Lao, why exactly are we pursuing this woman called Snow Crane?"
Senior Martial Brother Lao said indifferently, "Junior Martial Brother Li Cheng, we will do our best to carry out Master's orders."
Li Cheng nodded. "I understand. I'm just curious."
Senior Martial Brother Lao said, "She stole a precious treasure. We need to arrest her and recover the stolen item."
As he spoke, his expression suddenly changed and he turned his head to look to the side.
At the same time, a voice sounded, "I wonder what precious item it is?"
Yan Zhaoge's sudden appearance in front of the three caused them to feel a chill within their hearts.
Senior Martial Brother Lao frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
Seeing that Yan Zhaoge had come with ill intentions, clear qi had already begun surging about his body.
However, Yan Zhaoge arrived as he strode forward after saying those words, arriving before them in an instant.
It was not just Yan Zhaoge himself. The Northern Ocean Clone had also appeared, resembling a streak of light.
It was unknown whether the other side had reinforcements or what the situation was like on the other side of the dimensional passageway.
Yan Zhaoge wanted to interrogate them. Not wasting any time, he attacked with all his might, ending the battle as quickly as possible.
Very quickly, the three opponents were all subdued.
Yan Zhaoge gazed at the entrance of the dimensional passageway before him.
That horse-faced youth asked unresignedly, "Do you know what you are doing?"
Senior Martial Brother Lao said sternly, "Who are you? We should not have met before. Did you have a grudge with my Cloud Mist Mountain's Clear Light Locale?"
"There is no need to introduce yourself. While I do not roam the eastern Vast Heaven Territory, I still recognise your sect's insignia." Yan Zhaoge said nonchalantly, "As for what I am doing, it is not important. I am more concerned about what you are doing."
Li Cheng's gaze also fell on the entrance of the dimensional passageway before he turned to look at Yan Zhaoge, "You have come for the Snow Crane as well? Are you an old acquaintance of hers or have you come to capture her as well? "
Senior Martial Brother Lao carefully gazed at Yan Zhaoge's face, his expression suddenly changing greatly, "You …"
Yan Zhaoge said casually, "You have too many questions."
Saying thus, Yan Zhaoge directly detained the three of them before directly entering the dimensional passageway together with the Northern Ocean Clone.
Traversing the spatial passageway, the chaotic flows of space intersected before them as it was a world of many colours.
After a while, the scenery before them returned to normal as it suddenly opened up. What appeared before Yan Zhaoge's eyes was a world with beautiful scenery.
The environment of this foreign dimension was rather good.
"This mother of mine is really like father and Xiao Ai said, being rather particular about the quality of life ah."
Yan Zhaoge thought as he felt the flow of spiritual qi within this foreign dimension, searching for his target.
Still, before he could get a clear grasp of the situation, a powerful light suddenly lit up in the distant horizon.
A thick pillar of light shot into the skies before the terrifying light of thunder began expanding into the surroundings, looking like it wanted to envelop the entire foreign dimension.
However, before it could even approach Yan Zhaoge, a few streaks of thunder also arose there as the two sides clashed intensely.
Yan Zhaoge frowned, hastening forward.
Now, however, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with Li Cheng whom he had just captured.
The youth who had originally been attempting to struggle free of the cage was suddenly dazed for a moment.
When he regained his wits, a pained look appeared on his face, confusion and confusion intermingling within his gaze.
While he was worried about the situation in the distance, Yan Zhaoge was still taken aback as he discovered this situation.
A rune had clearly surfaced on Li Cheng's forehead on its own.
This rune was precisely that of Sikong Qing and others who were similar to her, male or female, each of them having one. While they were connected to each other, they were all different runes.
Yan Zhaoge had already seen Li Cheng's rune before, but that had been the result of him concentrating on observing it with his cultivation base.
Now, however, this rune had surfaced on its own as everyone could clearly see it.
Yan Zhaoge had never seen Sikong Qing and the others in such a situation before.
And looking at Li Cheng's current appearance and expression, this was clearly not something that he had done voluntarily, instead being a passive reaction to some external stimulus.
What had caused this?
"Have you ever experienced a similar situation before?" Yan Zhaoge asked anxiously.
Li Cheng let out a pained groan, "… No!"
Yan Zhaoge abruptly raised his head, gazing into the distance.
The few streaks of thunder in the periphery most likely originated from disciples of Clear Light Locale. However, since this was the first time something like this had happened to Li Cheng, it should have nothing to do with those of his lineage whom he often met.
What had caused Li Cheng's current change was likely that majestic pillar of light that shot into the sky at their centre.
And that pillar of light was very likely the handiwork of his mother, Xue Chuqing. (To be continued.)
