Chapter 301.4 - A Person Impossible to Forget
“A few days ago, I went to see Little Qing Yu. She is perfectly fine except that her freedom is curtailed. So tell me Senior, are you really going to give up?” Ying Ge asked as she looked straight at the woman, pausing succinctly at every word as she spoke.
“Is Little Yu, really well?” Qing Lan Fei held Ying Ge’s hand tightly as she asked in disbelief.
“She is perfectly fine.” Ying Ge lifted her head up to reply. “I’ve also told her not to be afraid, as I will try to find a way to save her, as her mother is still waiting for her.”
Qing Lan Fei’s face seemed to show she was a little moved by that, and just a moment later, looking like she had just made a big decision, she nodded her head and said: “Alright. I promise you that I will make sure I recover quickly, so that I can go save Little Yu together with you.”
Ying Ge’s face then broke into a highly comforted smile.
Actually, she had not seen the young lady before, and she did not even know where she was imprisoned.
That information had been tightly capped up and she had not been able to glean even the slightest sliver of news about it from her Master. The only thing she heard from her Master was that the young lady was brought back here by the Supreme Lord Lian Shi himself.
That man, besides Sovereign herself, was the most highly skilled and powerful pugilist in the Mind Free Peak who held an extremely high position, a deep and unfathomable person who always had a smile on his face before everyone. However, it was that same exact smiley face of his that was most terrifying and deadly.
Even her Master had to cordially yield to that man to a certaln degree. For someone that was as lowly and insignificant as her, it was feared that she did not even have the right to speak to that man.
But, she will not give up. She will definitely be able to find out where that young lady has been hidden.
Ying Ge’s grip on Qing Lan Fei’s hand tightened up more and more.
Senior, you have always protected me back in the past. Now, it is my turn to protect you instead. I hope you have not forgotten what you promised me before.
That you will forever go on to live in bliss and happiness on my behalf as well.

After crossing over the iron chain bridge, one would then be considered to have really entered into the Mind Free Peak. But for one to merely just set foot into the realm proper, it took them three whole days.
When they first made it through, everyone seemed rather eager and were in good spirits. But when they came to remember that a good number of their people had died, their mood suddenly grew solemn and heavy, as if they had just realized the kind of danger that existed there.
However, since they had already come so far, it was a little too late for them to go back.
The entire construct of the Mind Free Peak was a like a place that would exist only in their dreams, so beautiful it felt highly surreal, as if touching anything in the slightest with their hands would cause them to evaporate into nothing, but everything there truly existed.
What met their eyes was a massively sized snow lion, crouched low and really to spring, it wide open jaws making for a terrifyingly ferocious sight.
But it was forever frozen in place, its entire body sealed up in thick glacial ice, and it looked like it had been dead for a long time, but its magnificent posture had been perfectly preserved, without the slightest bit of damage on its body, looking highly lifelike.
Besides the snow lion that was the most enormous in size, there were many other beasts of all kinds, beasts that walked the earth and also birds that flew in the sky, all of them frozen in place midway through the very last action they took when they were still alive, trapped in that place till death claimed them.
It was as if they met with a great calamity, and the spirit beasts were unable to dodge and run away in time, to end up being trapped within the danger that suddenly fell upon them, never to strike a more lifelike pose than that.
