Royal Palace of Yue.
The shadow of war could not dissipate the solemnity of the palace, and the walls that stood more than a dozen feet high seemed as insurmountable as the sky itself.
Night fell.
A dark shadow jumped out from behind a crenelation on the wall.
Clad in night clothes and wearing a black mask that revealed only his eyes and nose, the shadow blended seamlessly into the darkness.
His name was Situ Zhaixing, a well-known Martial Arts Master in the Yue Kingdom. His lightness skill, Treading Upon the Snow without a Trace, was not only as fast as a galloping horse but also endowed him with incredible stamina, allowing him to cover a thousand miles a day.
Once, in a contest against a precious horse from a foreign land, he ran the horse to death, earning him the nickname "Divine Traveling Escort" in the society.
Now, he served as the Green Dragon Envoy for the newly risen overlord of the society, the Green Dragon Association.
