Chapter 515
The old man had a withered appearance, his long hair spread out, revealing a dried-up face. He looked both ghost-like and immortal, unintentionally eliciting a sense of terror in people's hearts.
Nobody knew how long he had been residing on this snow-covered peak. Even the local herdsmen had no idea that a human being actually inhabited this perennially frigid land.
The old man was unnamed and age ascertained. His background remained unknown too. However, it seemed apparent that he knew the elderly nun in white. The sight of her set him tumbling over a cliff in haste to escape, which made the situation abruptly bizarre.
When he returned after his abrupt departure, the elderly nun didn't appear surprised. Instead, she said, "I invited you out of the hermitage to help me kill someone."
