After leaving Little Mei and her mother in White Cloud Village, Ling Chen decided to go straight to the Sun God Palace in order to meet with the Sun Demi-God.
Now that his cover as the Wandering Monk was blown, there's no need for him to go back and do the same thing again. His only objective now was to quickly meet with the Sun Demi-God.
However, he was forced to stop on the way due to some unexpected and inexplicable changes that were happening within his sea of consciousness.
At this moment, the sun was already sinking behind the horizon, draining away the light of day.
Within a large forest a few hundred miles away from the White Cloud Village, Ling Chen sat cross-legged with both of his eyes closed while Azure was standing not too far from him, guarding him.
