Wen Qingye smiled faintly and said nothing.
Lil Ya said, "I know you, kid. You're definitely going to North Mountain, so I'm giving you a heads-up. The Demon Beasts on North Mountain are quite strong. You'd better be careful."

Wen Qingye watched Lil Ya leave, then looked at the cloth bag in his hand. 'Guu Lei and his two companions had similar bags,' he thought. 'It seems this matter isn't so simple.'
For the next few days, Wen Qingye stayed in his loft, cultivating. He rarely went out, and his cultivation increased steadily.

Wen Qingye appeared at the foot of North Mountain.
A thousand peaks and ten thousand ridges pierced the clouds and sky. Standing atop them, it seemed one could reach out and pluck the sun, moon, and stars.
